All those still having problems with WLM

After extensive serching through the forum and the Wiki i was stumped as to why WLM was failing to sync.
all i could find were people asking if anyone new what the problem was and a whole load of replies that suggested they serched for the answer. The problem being there isn't (as far as i can tell) an actual answer to this issue.
This was my issue.
I upgraded to the newest version of LVSW and i couldn't get WLM to sync, it kept on saying that there was a problem with the service or i have not got good enough reception. this was incorrect as could use IE without a problem.
Many people said that this was because the Beta had expired..which it of course had, so i tried all the new versions, stand alone that LVSW posted with his new ROM, Tried BE 2.0 with the built in version. all with the same result. NOTHING!!!
Now i have found the problem i had and i hope that it will help with others problems
I used to put in my GPRS settings manually, but i decided to download a .cab file with the T-Mobile UK settings. and this was the problem. it was adding a proxy to the connection.
To rectify the situation i deleted the connection and put it back manually with the Following Settings.
Connection Name : T-Mobile GPRS
Access Point: general.t-mobile.uk
User: user
Password: one2one
and nothing else. (these are the only setting T-mobile CS gave me)
I now have a working copy of the new Messenger (No contact duplication) on my Vario II.
I hope this rather long winded post will be of help to some of you on the forum.

Yes I found this also. I kept getting the Out of range error message.
However, it's fine to have a proxy on Orange UK and is actually required for the 3G connection. The problem I had was with Active Sync - it kept adding my corporate proxy server name to the GPRS settings. Removing them allowed WLM to connect first time!

Eh? Are you sure? Seems plenty of people on here using Orange without a proxy set....
Just wondering, as I had been having problems, but not now, and I do have a proxy set, but ONLY in the WAP connection, not Orange Internet connection. Hmmm....

There were problems with the first t-mob uk cab posted, but someone put up a fixed version later on that I use without issues. Look about half way through in the UK operator cabs thread.
T-mob apparently use a transparent proxy, so no settings required.

Orbit trying to use GPRS for SMS !!!

Hi
I've had my orbit a few months. Nothing out of the ordinary loaded on it :-
Opera
XnView
TCPMP
SK Tools
Battery Status
A few days ago it started throwing up a network logon box every time I receive or send an SMS. I have 2 dummy connections setup for Internet and Work so that it will not connect to GPRS without me knowing - I did this since day 1 with no problems. It means I can be absolutely sure that I am not getting GPRS data charges without me intitiating it.
So, it would seem that my orbit is trying to use GPRS for messaging. I've changed the setting from GSM preferred to GSM only, but this has not stopped the problem.
Can't recall any software load or changes immediately prior to this happening.
Any suggestions?
Michael

Well I can answer my own question - I had received an MMS and it was trying to dial out to get the photo !!
Michael

goto start-setting-connections and click on sms service change it to gsm preferred.
to disable GPRS use this utility

toggle and disable or enable

Can't log on net with T-mobile. Handset is new. Could it be broken? Or is it me?

Hi there (I'm in the UK)
it's an unbranded S620 brand new running WM5 (not interested in WM6). My SIM card is with T-mobile which works with my Pocket PC P3600. But I can't get GPRS to work with the S620. Could really use some help guys.
I've set up a GPRS data connection called "T-Mobile GPRS" and have entered the following details:
Access point = general.t-mobile.uk
username = user
password = one2one
I've deleted the Primary DNS, Secondary DNS (more on those later) and also the IP address.
I've activated the data connection (T-Mobile GPRS).
I've gone in to explorer and made the settings there, i.e.
highlighted "Automatically detect settings" and I've selected "WAP Network".
When I try to access the net via explorer I get the error "Your Internet connection is not configured properly. Please verify your settings in Data Connections".
I've checked and doubled checked and re-entered everything 5 times. No dice.
Note: when I go back to re-enter, the Primary and Secondary DNS fields have suddenly become populated with 0.0.0.0
Not sure if this is relevant!
Note: I can connect to the web if I use WiFi and also change the setting "Select Network" in I.E. from "WAP Network" to "The Internet". Which also begs the question, why doesn't this switch automatically? This is the first SP I've had. Ive always had Pocket PC which if you switched WiFi on and opened explorer it used WiFi. Seems a bit of a pain to have to change IE settings as well, unless I've got that wrong as well....
Anyway, I've called T-Mobile and apart from the above all they said is go to your local T-Mobile store and they will check your s/ware. The problem with this is that the store will want to stick their TMobile s/w on and I prefer the handset unbranded. As I explained above I've used the SIM in other unbranded devices before.
Any ideas?
I'm missing my news.bbc.c.o.uk!
Thanks

Change WAP Network to Internet.
BTW, WM6 is ways faster on the Excalibur.
Ka.

That's great it works!
I wonder why the T-Mobile website asks you to enter WAP Network?
By the way, in what regard is WM6 faster?
Download speeds or some other aspect(s)?
Thanks

General responsiveness of the UI is (in my humble opinion) faster with WM6 than with the shipped WM5.
I had an Excalibur for roughly two months. Got it with the shipped WM5, then installed the TMo Wm6 as soon as it was out and was impressed by it (after some tweaking to remove the TMo stuff I didn't need).
Decided to buy the Vox as the keyboard was sliding, shipped with WM6, more compact and nobody would say anymore:"Oh... Cool!!! You have a Blackberry! You must either be important or want to show off!"
Sold the Excalibur, bought the Vox. Vox's WM6 is not even comparable to Excalibur's... Don't ask me why but it find it quite slower. But now I'm getting OT.

Cannot connect EDGE problem.

Hi Friends!
Now seems that I have a serious problem, my Diamond still with the "Cannot connect" problem, displaying the following message in any data transfer attempt:
"Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacture's documentation and try again."
It started just after updating from TLR2 to TLR3 ROM and Unsigned Hard SPL from OliNex, where radio version also changed.
Before that everything was working nice but now I have nice voice and WIFI quality, GPS and SMS are working as it should, but no GPRS/EDGE data connection.
Ive checked the connection settings lots of times, tried all RADIO versions and reflashed the following ROMs with the following Claro (Brazil) connection settings:
Settings > Connections > Connections > My ISP
APN: claro.com.br
User: claro
Pass: claro
Proxy settings: Only first box checked.
Tried setting network band manually for GSM, PAP and CHAP authentication, enabled and disabled HSDPA without success.
ROMs flashed for tests:
- RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26.25.09_0.93.25.26_Ship
- RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.37.871.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship
- RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
- tlr-diamond-2.08.07.01
- tlr-diamond-3.08.07.16
The same SIM card works perfectly in another cell phone, so I think it isnt the problem as shouldnt be with operator CLARO, here in Brazil.
Ive noticed, doing some internet search, that this problem used to happen in other HTC models, but I couldnt figure a way to solve the problem or what were its true origin.
I really need some help with this issue, since data transfer is very important to me.
Tnx in advance for your attention and help!

Some news:
Finally Ive discovered that my Daiamond is from Honk Kong after searching its part number.
I downloaded the RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1 ROM and got a surprise that it now have the Claro, and other operators from Brazil, connection settings in HTC Connection Setup, so the connection settings itself shouldnt be the issue.
The "cannot connect" problem persists...
I should donate to someone that can help me solve this problem, since I dont have any more hints to solve it...
Tnx!

Any settings in your Proxy settings field?

Hi Laubscherc;
Double checked that too, even in automatic settings from "HTC Connection Settings Tool"
Anyone knows if there is any way to make any kind of log or debug to see while it tries to connect?

I think Im getting some hint about my problem with EDGE/GPRS connection. Ive entered field test mode by dialing *#*#364#*#* and in the Group GPRS / E-GPRS I can see some fields displaying 255: <Unknown> parameter.
Some of the fields are RLC: Uplink Coding Scheme, RLC: Downlink Code Scheme, MAC mode and others.
I think it should display the settings to work with my operator, but the question is why they arent filled and how to correct this? There some kind of editor for those settings?

alfatag i have exactly the same problem as you.. and as you too don't know how to figure it out. Allready posted a thread here as you did, but nobody helped. I hope some one who know a lot about the subject can help us. At least is better now, i was thinking i was the only one who have such a big problem. ^^
If u want to, add me on msn = [email protected]
BYE

Same problem with Edge Connection
I´m facing the same problem. Have someone resolved this issue? I´m using the Claro operator too.

Data connection not working on Rapahel (O2 XDA Diamond Pro)

Hello,
is tried to install XDANdroid serveral times with different builds now.
It always worked fine, but i cant get data connection to work.
Yesterday i even did a hard-rset, formatted SD and installed th Froyo .cab:
h**p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732362
My Network is O2 Germany.
I tried the to pre-installed APNs and also the APN settings i found on the internet:
APN: internet
other settings not set.
I tried to search in the forum and google... but no one seems to have such problem.
Can anybody help?
Bye

I have had issues with this in the US. I was able to solve this by getting the settings from the O2 website under Data. Make sure that the proxy and apn settings reflect the website info. If that fails, contact O2 and ask for the data connection settings to be emailed to you. They have a long drawn out set up process, so this may be where you're hitting the brick wall - so to speak.
