Hi all, have a little problem, am going to see if Toms 4.1 rom has the same issue, and something in the back of my mind tells me that it's there by design.
Basically, i connect to two different types of wireless networks, those are:
Work: I go to different schools, all part of the same WAN, the access points are different, keys etc, but the proxy is always 172.1.0.5:8080
Everywhere else: no proxy, random addressing, the usual stuff.
Every time i enter the work proxy server and leave the connections tab, the proxy settings dissapear, it only seems to be the main proxy settings, as the WAP, Secure WAP and Socks settings keep. As soon as i connect to the work network, goodbye proxy, as soon as i disconnect, the proxy settings return.
I really need that to work the other way around.
Currently using Toms B&B 4.0, as previously stated i'll check to see what happens in 4.1, but i have a sneaky idea that it's there for a reason.
Any workarounds? registry hacks?
Thanks
Kai
Still having trouble with my proxy settings, tried B&B 4.0, 4.1 and Artemis touch WWE.
All have the same problem, Proxy server settings dissapear when and only when i use the Work settings for connection. If i use the 'Internet' setup or simply disconnect from Wifi, the proxy settings re-appear.
If i can't get this to work, i'll have to go back to the official rom, all of the other bells and whistles are just fluff, i need this more than anything else.
Thanks
same deal here. they certificate secured services with my problem. connect fine, and get DHCP address assigned, but the proxy server settings don't stick. internal sites are fine, but can't get outside as all access is barred except via the proxies. i figured it was a bug and live with it! please let me know if the official ROM fixes it or you find a workaround though!

Had no problems with proxy settings with the official WM5 or WM6 roms, but with B&B and WWE i've had no luck at all.
I do hope someone knows why this is happening.
Well, think i found the solution to this.
I was thinking that there had to be something specific to the 'cooked' roms which would disable the proxy, and the only thing i could in common with the Three cooked roms that i've tried has been battery status. It's the only utility that mentions specifically 'disabling the proxy for wifi'.
In the options for battery status you will find an option that will do just that, i enabled it(thus theoretically stopping the proxy from working), and then disabled it again. And now when i connect through my work connection, the proxy settings are still active and i can recieve my mail.
**and before anyone asks, i didn't enable the option before **
Picked up a softbank X01HT today, my first WM device. It was lots of fun upgrading the Rom to Schaps 4.01 and getting bbconnect 4.0.0.91 working. Everything is great and this appears to be the device of my dreams!
One thing I've noticed though is that if I'm plugged into the USB to charge and activesync enables, the bbconnect service is blocked... likewise if I use the internet.
Any advice if these two scenarios can be overcome?
Thanks for a great community and awesome info!
You can't bypass it while utilizing activesync. As for the internet you have to use the browser that installs when you first initialize blackberry connect otherwise all other browsers will use your internet settings rather than the blackberry connect ipn. You may be able to configure it so that other applications use the bb ipn but since I no longer have my hermes I don't recall if you can. Maybe someone that has bbconnect with their hermes can chime in.
most, if not all carriers seem to not like multiple APNs running although WM6 can handle it.
What is happening is you are not using ActiveSync to surf, rather your mobile network, which shuts down the BN APN for your standard internet
The only time I am able to use both BBConnect and IE is when I am connected to WiFi. Somehow, WM6 establishes connection to WiFi access point and yet BBConnect is still connected to the BB APN.
Strangely I suddenly cannot access the internet at all, is there a way to force the browser to use my Rogers GPRS connection to access the web instead of the BB apn? It is staying on now even when I try and access the internet. Thanks!
Actually I figured it out. If I use the default browser in WM6 it goes nowhere but if I use the Internet Browser in the blackberry program folders I'm fine on the BB apn.
Accessing & Using the internet via USB
I have an unlocked HTC S620 & TyTN (Hermes).
When I connect the TyTN to the USB I am able to browse the internet as the phone uses the PC as a gateway automatically.Even if I do not setup a profile for activesync and the software recognises the device as "Guest". I am ceretain that this is the case and not accessing the service via the carrier or WiFi as I have enabled flight mode and been able to use the internet on the TyTN, browsing, using IM+ Mobile Mesenger etc.
I do not find the same functionality with the HTC S620 (T-Mobile Dash). Does anyone know how to get this functionality going?
Usually you always need to make a partnership for internet pass through to work. Strange you don't with the Hermes.

When you say partnership I asume you mean bluetooth.
I Turned on Flight mode and diabled bluetooth on the TyTN, connected it to the PC. Activesync came on and I cancelled setting up a profile so it was registered as guest. I got internet access via the usb cable connected to the PC. The same is not working for the S620.
I guess the distinction between the two is the TyTN is a Pocket PC and the S620 is a smartphone. There are various Ethernet Miniport Cards available for configuration on the TyTN. You find these under Settings>>NetworkCard>>Network Adapters. The one I find that shows up as connected is IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wifi Adapter, this I find strange as the device is in flight mode. The S620 does not have all the features and configurable network adapters under settings. Simply put a smartphone will not have all the networking capability of the Pocket PC
Let me know your thoughts please, or if you have another solution.
Here is how I got mine working.
1) Connect phone to pc.
2) Make sure ActiveSync shows connected.
3) Under ActiveSync Window select File->Connection Settings...
4) Change the "This computer is connected to:" setting from "Automatic" to "The Internet".
5) Under you phone go to IE -> Menu -> Tools -> Options -> Connections and make sure "Automatically detect settings" is enabled.
That's it. You should now be able to browse the internet through your pc connection.
Forgot to mention I am using ActiveSync ver 4.5.
Dash Internet Sharing Files on S720
On my HTC S720, there was no Internet Sharing option, even though it is WM6 unit. So after reading lots of threads on here and hofo, found out Blackjack had similar issue, as well as some WM5 devices running AKU 3 or higher.
So I copied intshrui.exe, intshare.dll and intshrui.lnk from Dash WM6 Rom dump, created relevant registry entries as:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp\DefaultIcon]
@="tapres.dll,-14294"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp\SelectIcon]
@="tapres.dll,-14295"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINTERNET_SHARING]
"0"="MSINTERNET_SHARING"
"1"="IntShrUI.exe"
"2"=dword:00000001
"3"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINTERNET_SHARING\Session]
@=hex:00,db,4d,43,70,b9,c7,01
Then run intshrui.exe and while I can connect via Bluetooth PAN, I couldn't get any IP. I also tried a static IP and that didn't work as well. I investigated a little more, and found another key:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing]
"DisabledOnBoot"=dword:00000001
"EnableAddressTranslation"=dword:00000001
"EnableDhcpAllocator"=dword:00000001
"EnableDnsProxy"=dword:00000001
"EnablePacketFiltering"=dword:00000001
"PrivateInterface"=""
"PublicInterface"=""
"SetLastDhcpAddrToIEH"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing\Driver]
"Dll"="ipnat.dll"
"Flags"=dword:00000002
"Index"=dword:00000000
"Prefix"="NAT"
Then I copied ipnat.dll to s720. Here is the interesting part. If HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing exists, intshrui.exe will not connect, it will briefly grey out and come back to disconnected mode. As soon as I delete the key, it will setup USB or BT PAN and wait for connection (left soft key turns to Disconnect). I don't even have to reset the unit while making change to this key. Also, I left the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing as empty, and noticed as soon as I run intshrui.exe, it will populate
"PrivateInterface"=""
"PublicInterface"=""
keys under ConnectionSharing key. I also tried to change various reg keys, such as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms\IpEnableRouter to 1, and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Connectivity]
"InternetSharing"=dword:00000001
None helped as well.
Am I missing a file or reg key to make this work? I looked on my Dash for various keys/files but didn't see anything useful.
has anyone figure out how to get internet sharing on wm6?
Have a look at;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1517183&posted=1#post1517183
I posted up the files and a .reg file taken from my WM6 Dopod 838, but I don't know if everything required is there. If anyone knows what else is required I'm happy to copy it from my device and post it here.
Would you mind posting ipnat.dll - it is missing from Blackjack II WM6..

6.1 Internet Sharing Problem *R.I.P.*
Has anyone figured out why Internet sharing NO LONGER works with any 6.1 roms that i flashed to? From Kavanas ROM s to Ricky's Remakes.
Is there a fix to this?
Can any of you "smarter" Gents or Ladies, look into this.
this is wierd. who is your operator? mine works just fine with the settings i use. maybe we should find out if this problem only exist for certain operators. might also have to do with the network connections on the pc. like i said in another post, i noticed a new network connection appears when you sync the phone, unlike in wm6.0. another thing is i would have problems with activesync everytime i flashed to a new rom without doing a uninstall & reinstall of activesync.

Shouldn't be operator issue. Worked great prior to updating to 6.1. (T-Mobile USA)
What rom are you using?
damn u were quick to respond. i edited my first post. im usin the new v15 rom. and tmobile is my operator.
ediit: i just messed with my settings and went back to how i had them before and now its not letting me do the internet share. hmm... this is not cool
Iv used V14, V8 and V5 and none of them allow my internet sharing to work. V5 worked at first but then stopped.
I really like 6.1 but I NEED that internet sharing
WHAT settings are talking of? that work for you?
INTERNET VIA USB PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!
ok i think the problem may be with activesync. like i said, in my second post edited, i had messed with the advance settings of connections menu, and reverted back and it stopped net sharin via usb. i noticed activesync gave me an error sayin somethin about not being able to fully connect but i was still able to browse my phone, also giving me a constant animation of the activesync icon, saying "connecting" never stopping when a full connection is establish. when i fixed this and the icon stopped turning and said "connected" i tried and it worked.
on a fresh install of the past couple of roms, this is what i did... (from an earlier post of mine)
this is what i did. use the "connection setup" in the accessories folder. choose country & operator. dont think it matters but i also selected "Enable Auto Configuration" under the menu.
in explorer, under "menu/tools/options/connections" Auto.Detect Settings is selected. under "Select Network" choose The Internet.
now go into ur phones "Connection" settings, select "GPRS". in my case, select, "T-Mobile WModem Link", under "Connects to", select The Internet. for other operators, guess look for somethin similar. now u should be able to share via usb.
one thing u might have to do is, delete whatever gprs settings u have now and power off and back on. then do the above.
sorry if this is so messy looking
Can you post the entry "seetings" for "T-Mobile WModem Link"
I manually entered my connections.
So i dont have the modem link
Hi Chaps,
I have an o2 xda iis, which I've cherished for many years. A few months ago I managed to upgrade it's original, awful buggy software to wm6.5 which has thankfully put an end to the constant crashing but it has also created a few new problems I was hoping to get some help with.
1) MMS has dissapeared from the messaging menu. I can't send, receive as it's just not there anymore!
2) Wifi connects to my network, assigns an IP but when I open IE (or any other browser), the browser closes immediately. GPRS works fine.
device data :
WM 6.5 CE OS 5.2.21139
wm6.5pro_QVGA HT4.20
ROM DATE 01/01/09
Radio version 1.06.00
Protocol 1337.38
extrom : black kernel
welcome to the forum!
1. mms is not a feature, that is built into the os by standard, it is an add-on application called arcsoft mms, that enables the account in messaging and gives you back the possibility to send, receive and set the mms again. you can find it in the iolite stuff thread, and since you are new, here's the link: -=the link=-
you will find the download link listed under 01.10.2008
2. that is odd!
-would the internet explorer stay open, when you have no data connection at all?
then you could enable the wi-fi afterwards.
-alternatively, do you get a real ip, when connecting to your wi-fi?
a real ip would be something like 192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x in contrast to 169.254.x.x, which means, the devices uses dhcp and demands an ip from your access point, but is not assigned one, either because there is no dhcp server or 802.1x authentication failed or there is a MAC filter or the network is 54Mbit only, wpa2 or wpa-aes.
that would mean, that you have a corrupt wireless connection and no data traffic would work anyways. in that case make sure, your router is set up right, that a device that can only handle up to wlan-b, wpa-psk could access it and try a static ip in your network.
still i think it is strange, since under no circumstances the IE should crash, with or without a conection. maybe you want to try another IE version or an entirely different rom, if you can's fix that.
with best regards,
Chef_Tony
Wow thanks for the quick response.
I wasn't aware MMS isn't a standard feature. I'll look into that asap! Thanks! I feel educated.
As for the WIFI not working, I think it's something to do with the Sun Dream rom i'm using. I had read some of the 100+ pages (ugh!) and realised I was sposed to install IE8 after the ROM. This seems to have fixed whatever was wrong. Seems weird to me!
ok. maybe that is why that issue is so weird. since you are using wm6.5 i was assuming you also used the new internet explorer. but also, you wrote "(or any other browser)" in your first post and since not all the browsers are based on IE (some are) i thought, if you had the same issue there, it couldn't be related to IE but must be something with the conection itself.
Well... Here it is:
HTC Hermes (orange spv m3100) with crc's 13.5 stable version (wm 6.1) installed, synchronized, but pass-through doesn't work.
Yes, i googled it, found a lot of pages, but none solved my problem.
On the other hand, if I connect a Mio p550 (wm 6.1 projet renaissance by crashoverhead) and sync, internet works.
This means the problem it's from my device. It stops in IE at Locating and then it gives an error:" the page cannot be displayed because the connection was lost. please try again."
I tried using it w/o schaps advanced config. Nothing.
Any ideas?
I'm guessing it's the proxy
go into settings>connections>connections and uncheck the proxy
it would have also been better to keep this in the crc thread, instead of starting another one.
after all the tries, it worked after in connections>advanced>select network> Orange World (my phone operator) i unticked the proxy they use
thanx for the help
Cool, glad you got it working.
The proxy seems to over ride everything, and their proxy server can't be reached outside their network. I have the same issues on Cincinnati Bell here in Ohio.
