Need help!

I just recieved my HTC P3300 yesterday
and the thing DOESNT go online
its connected to my home wifi network yet when I use Pocket IE it simply says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings."
WTF?
Can I not use wifi on this smartphone? What am I doing wrong, and please feel free to flame me, I'm new to all this so I really need helpful opinions.

Does No one know how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
If you tried to connect with your router, do you used the same script (WPA, ...) for this? Do you entered the password for your WiFi-network? Please let us know, what you´ve done to get access via WiFi.

There was WPA-PSK encryption on my network at first. Then I removed it, connected to the network again, still gave me the same error.

GPRS connected but stop at "Locating..."

Hello All,
First of all, I'm sorry if I open new thread. I already tried to search similar problem here but could find anything. Btw, I'm still new to Windows Mobile platform.
I've got problem with GPRS.
First GPRS connection is very slow (compared to after Hard reset), and after connected, Internet Explorer shows "Locating..." on status bar. Then message box appears "The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again."
All applications also could not access internet via GPRS.
I guess that DNS is not properly configured during connection.
I found two workaround solutions currently:
- Use Work connection, instead of ISP Internet (Setting -> Connection -> Advanced -> Select Network -> "Connect internet using "Work""). This solution is not really stable.
- Hard reset solve the problem. Last option which is very bad.
- Does anybody have similar problem? Does anybody know how to fix?
- How to find like "ipconfig" in Windows?
If somebody knows link / reference with similar problem, please kindly provide it.
I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
Best regards,
TwoAce
ROM: FInixNOver 3.1.1 -> Wow ROM!
Radio: 1.38.00.11

goto start-settings- tab connections - wireless lan
then goto tab power mode, and put slider to "best performance"
press ok.
it works for me.

Hello stormyb,
May I know what is the correlation between GPRS and Wireless LAN?
Do you also have problem with not working ISP Internet connection?
Thanks.

Have you tried to re-run the Network Wizard to see if it will rebuild your settings for you? I've had a few occasions when I've needed to do this, and it sets things straight.
I don't see the correlation between the Wi-Fi and GPRS either, but stormyb might know something we don't.

I get negative result on what stormyb suggested.
Thanks a lot for your input!
SuperSport, I already tried, too before and get negative result.
Thanks for your input.
This is what I did:
1. Remove All Connections setting (both Internet and Work).
2. "Enable Auto Configuration" on Connection Setup
3. Shutdown
4. Turn on and receive notification about empty connection.
5. Create manually Internet setting on Connections (I created manually because Ukraine is not on the list of Connection Setup.
6. Check via Internet Explorer and receive negative result
7. Workaround solution -> Create manually Work setting on Connection and redirect all connection to Work. Works perfectly!
Did I miss something here?
I wonder how to check network configuration (like ipconfig in Windows desktop).
Best regards,
TwoAce

Btw, I just read some articles.
Is HTC Connection Setup the same as Network Wizard?

As far as I know, they do the same thing, but Network Wizard is older. I have to use the HTC Network Wizard to get the correct settings for my network. HTC Connection Setup does not work for me. I just checked HTC Network Wizard, and found it has WellCOM listed under Ukraine. Is that your network? If so, you might try installing Network Wizard and see if that helps. It can be uninstalled if it's no good.

sorry my mistake, i thought you were talking about wireless lan,... but for that you have to do what i typed before.
gprs just works fine by me. i used the connection wizzard which came with the rom

No problem, I was really hoping you had a new trick up your sleeve that we didn't know about.

I'm with MTS / UMC provider.
My current HTC Connection Setup also has Welcomm listed under Ukraine.
I'm still lucky that I have workaround solution. If not, I'm already crazy.
Thanks SuperSport and stormyb! If you have any idea later, please let me know.
I really appreciate for your reply.

nope, sorry, i am not a genius....
i'm more reading this forum and learning instead of giving my knowledge. everything i wanted to know is on this forum....
so i spent much time searching.....i need a new search button...
BTW: Twoace: i see You use: Radio: 1.38.00.11
maybe if you upgrade your radio rom ?
You can find radiorom here:
http://trinityguides.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=38&Itemid=66

Yes, I know I'm using 1.38.00.11.
Among 3 of 4 Radio version, unfortunately only 1.38.00.11 works with USSD support (e.g. *101# to check balance).
I haven't tried 1.46.00.11. Will try it in the weekend and report.

GPRS problem unsolved

Hi,
Im using unlocked T-mobile MDA pro 64mb phone with WM 6.1 (build 19960.1.1.8 TML)
The problem is that when I connect to GPRS, Internet explorer, outlook and most of the internet softwares (opera browser, google maps etc...) don't work. Internet explorer stops at loading. outlook says synchronization error. But, a few softwares like IM messenger, some trading software work fine. The problem occurs only when on GPRS. Everything works fine on wifi.
I have been facing this problem since I have unlocked the phone and flashed it for the first time. I have flashed for several times with various roms. initially it works but soon problem reappears. hmm.. Problem did not appear in WM 6.5 (but phone is hell slow. So, im forced to remove it). Further the problem is not network specific as I tried on various networks.
Guys please help me.. I searched a lot on internet and it seems like no one is facing this type of problem in the whole world except me

Hi!
thnx for ur reply... I'm desperately waiting for it...
Any how I tried this... as usually it worked fine at the beginning and problem repeated again. The new development is that the application which I said to be working previously (IM messenger etc...) are also now working now...
Very much frustrated about this issue as I'm unable to find the background reason for it . Even the XDA forums cant help it....And the worst part is that warranty is not going to apply as I unlocked it..

Yet no solution...

info?
Which network?
Prepaid/postpaid?
Did you add a new connection manually yet it won't work?
You are doing something wrong because this is weird.
Go to start>settings>connection>connections>tasks>add new connection>
name...anything, access point.....airtelgprs.com / internet (for idea ) / aircelgprs etc.
Done.
Launch browser , it should connect if you have data plan / enough credit.

Hi
Thanks for your suggestions.
Im using airtel network. and all those settings are already set on my phone.
Yes. I accept that my problem is weird. Thats the reason why I'm unable to find a solution for it.
Yet... I'm testing by changing various roms and still no success.
every time the problem repeats on 2-3 usages of gprs.
When I use opera browser it says that "I have some problem in settings". What to do I've checked those settings for hundreds of times and further if there is a problem in connection settings then why the heck it worked for the first few times?

Some stupid suggestions
Try same sim in another handset,
Try another sim or another network in THE Uni,
Try another cell tower area,
Because I have tried every single ROM ...shipped or cooked and this has nothing to do with GPRS getting disconnected.
As you said "I am the only one in the world with this problem" , means it cannot be a real problem , have faith , keep trying.
And for the warranty...Just flash the Original ROM and you are good again!

Hi
I did every experiment I can think of.... Including testing this sim on other phone or testing the other sim on this phone.
I even tried flashing the original T-mobile rom.
I also tried to find if the programs I install has something to do with the problem...but found none of it affects.
As you said it may not be a rom problem.
If it fails to work completely then I can guss some thing about the origin of the problem like rom or hardware or whatever...
As it is working well initially, I don't understand where exactly the problem lies...

have you done a doc-format? sometimes that can get rid of very peculiar problems.

Hi
Is the process of using mtty and task 28 55aa command what you call doc-format (sorry for ignorance)?
Then I've already did it...
anyway thanks for your suggestion...
I think the real culprit is activesync. anyway I have to do some tests and confirm.

To clear my doubt I decided to conduct a small test. I factory reset my system for three times to check the gprs connectivity...
First reset:
1. GPRS worked flawlessly.
2. On connecting to pc + pairing up + synchronizing problem reappeared.
second reset:
1. GPRS worked flawlessly.
2. On connecting to pc by pairing up problem reappeared.
First reset:
1. GPRS worked flawlessly.
2. On connecting to pc without pairing up problem reappeared.
So, this strengthened my assumption that the problem is with active sync.
I cannot confirm so easily...
Further I would use my phone with out connecting to PC for 3-4 days and check if problem reappears.
Then I would check it by connecting to a different PC. Then I can confirm whether the problem is with active sync of my system or the phone...
By the way, today is the second day of my testing without connecting to pc and no issues detected till now

folks,
Today on the fourth day of my test, I conclude that connecting to my pc creates the gprs problem. No Idea how and why...
suggestions any one?
anyhow I would connect my phone to a different pc and check out if the problem is with my pc or with the phone...

no suggestions?

How much space have you got on the phone after sync? The computer may be trying to sync to uni even though you are not aware of it.
How confident are you with dealing with your computer registry, I mean, if you are using a Windows PC that is. You should try to clear any traces of old pairings from the PC before connecting the Uni to it again and allowing it to do a fresh start. It may be loading all sorts of corrupted or duplicated data that are messing up with your system. Backup your registry first, just in case you mess it up by mistake, to be on the safe side. Then, get stuck in and search for the word activesync (or words to that effect in your language) on the registry and where it shows the pairing settings delete only the keys related to pairing with the Uni, then try connecting again. Hope this helps.

[Q] Wi-Fi Connection Issue?

Okay, so this is a really weird issue that I found out with my HTC Tilt2 while it was running Android, and I have a feeling it might have something to do with the WEP code (Even though I've tried it 20+ times...)
Anyways, whenever I try to connect to my home network on Android, it always goes through the same process of *Connecting...* *Sending...* *Connecting...* *Disconnected*, as if it just pings the router to check for a connection, then disables itself. Whenever I try it anywhere else however, I do not get this issue. I haven't found another location with another WEP key to try and see if its just that part of it that is unstable, but it's just a thesis. It's either that or my network, which, at this point, I wouldn't doubt if it was.
So... Anyone else getting or had this issue and solved it? Of connecting to a Wi-Fi network with a WEP key and getting *Connecting...* *Sending...* *Connecting...* *Disconnected*?
Edit: I did a bit more research and discovered that WEP is the only thing that doesn't work. Anybody got a reason other than it just doesn't work? Maybe something to do with the kernel or...?

WEP is an extremely insecure (unsecure?) protocol. Even if XDAndroid did support it, why would you want to use it? WPA/WPA2 are much, MUCH more secure and harder to crack than WEP is - with simple packet injection software, any 13 year old script kiddie can pop open your wifi.
I guess it is better than no security whatsoever if you are concerned about AP pirates, but not much. Every device in the last 5 years I'd say should support WPA/WPA2. So don't worry about WEP not being supported, it's horrid!
I think it is a kernel issue, but I don't see that being a priority for the devs to fix.

I looked into that a bit and just decided to upgrade my WEP to a WPA connection. Don't think my parents or brother we're too happy about me doing it, but from what you've said, it should be a lot better for both me and them.

Yep, and now I kind of understand why WPA is better than WEP. If you can figure out the paraphrase code behind it, then it's all easy to decode and translate and get someone's WEP code. Plus, it's a open encryption (which I think you already stated)
The more you know XD

WiFi connection issue

It's on your router. You change the security setting on your wireless settings from WEP to WPA. Then any PC/device that connects to your router wirelessly will have to type in the code again.

Could you elaborate more by "it's on your router" do you mean going to the actual model numbers router and connection to it? or can it be done through internet configuration on the computer

You have a wireless router correct? There's a configuration page on that router where you secure it with a password - is this not familiar to you? Router's don't ship with wifi secured, you have to put the password on the router...
There's a configuration page you need to go to figure it out. You can put your make/model router in portforward.com to see the steps to get into your particular router.

Thank you for the help, i have now changed the password and switch from WEP

Galaxy Tab Pro 8,4'' [SM-T320] - WLAN flapping issue

Hey guys,
FIrst of all: Thanks for maybe helping me.
So my problem is that I have a really annoying WiFi issue with my Galaxy Tab Pro. I installed a cm13 build (Link in that style because I am not allowed to share links...)
Code:
download[B]DOT[/B]cyanogenmod[B]DOT[/B]org/?device=mondrianwifi
a month ago and have one big problem with it. Whenever I want to use WLAN to connect to the internet (or use it on my local network, whatever) it just keeps flapping. It turns on and off and on and off and so on. I thought that it would be related to my home network at first (so that it doesn't get a IP or something like that), but after I checked my DHCP and general network settings and came to the conclusion that it can't be related to that. All other devices in my network are able to get a IP (and go online). When I turn on the WiFi on the tablet and check the network settings I see that it gets a IP but looses it after 1-2 secs. The thing which makes absolute no sense to me is that after a while (turning WiFi off and on again, 3-4 times) it often is able to get and keep a IP address. After that everything works fine - often for 1-2 hours until it looses the IP again and I have to begin with the game of randomness. I checked in the known bugs and could not finde that issue listet there. So I think it is maybe not related to the cm13 build I am using..? Or not even to the device? I don't know. Maybe you can help me - would be helpful enough if someone could tell me which logs I have to check when having a WiFi issue. I am quite new to such problems and don't know how I should start the troubleshooting.
So thanks in advance and greetings,
Maik
