I have done multiple searches and have not found anything. WIFI works, but gprs will not connect, i've tried disabling proxy and everything. I am currently using schaps 3.60a and the error i get is the answering modem has disconnected to check your connection settings click setting tab. I have not seen this error before. I've flashed multiple 8525's before. I have one working perfectly fine, and this is a second one i followed the exact same steps but gprs will not work no matter what.
I'm suddenly having an identical or almost identical problem on VP3g's ROM. My Wifi connection with PIE works fine and I'm getting push e-mail delivered. But when I try to connect off WiFi as I had always done before, I get the message:
"Cannot connect with the current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings"
I've checked my settings and they seem correct and the same I always used. I've checked to see that my NoData settings were not inadvertently set wrong, but Media Net is Enabled. I've tried flushing temp files and cookies. I even tried erasing them and then reestablishing them by going online with WiFi. Finally I also tried using Opera.
Nothing works. This is maddening
The only thing strange or different is that I had set HTC Custom for temp files to be on my SD Card and when I now tried to set them on main memory (to see if somehow that might work) I get a series of error messages each time and files remain on SD.
Is it possible for the radio for gprs to be corrupt?? Or it could it be something simple as a registry edit? On the phone it is instantaneous when you try to connect to gprs it kicks back that message right away. So i know for sure gprs/edge is inop. Not sure why though.
Check with your operator
It happens to me once in a while even when the "E" shows up in the display indicating Edge abailability, but reality is that the network is down or highly congested.
chhuong I think you are right and it must be a corrupt registry entry. I know that the visible settings are correct.
It occurred to me that I have been using NODATA to turn off GPRS reception whenever I wanted to use Wifi and perhaps one of the times I set it to be disabled and then enabled it again, it must have been left as disabled even though it "says" that it has been re-enabled. Also I had a problem trying to change the cache from Main to SD, and would keep on getting errors whenever I did, using HTCustom. So probably at some point some registry corruption must have crept in. Unfortunately I've become too lazy to open the registry editor and dive in to find out where it might be.
Anyway, I finally got tired of it not working and used the problem as an excuse to move from VPG's 3.60.1 to 3.60.2. I reflashed this morning and it's been fine ever since. This time I won't use NODATA.
well actually i've tried flashing multiple roms and multiple radios, and nothing, still no gprs? So mine might be an internal fault?? Has anyone ever heard of that happening??
have you tried: start - settings - connections -connections - advanced - select networks - Media Net? Reverse it back to my network when you to use WIFI.
I've got similar problem after reflashing. Try to run Shap's Advanced configuration tool, select Connections tab and click Enable HSDPA. Don't ask me why, but it helped me to solve the problem, even there is no HSDPA available here...
I am having the same problem but i dont think its schaps rom, i think it happened either after i installed the 1.54.10 radio or after i installed the shogun cabs. If a moderator or senior could point us in the right directions, it would be much appreciated.

I tired that many times, but it didnt help, thanks anyways.
FWIW, I was able to clear this up the last time it occurred by going in to Menu > Tools > Options > Memory and clearing the History, deleting files and clearing cookies, then soft reset, and everything was okay.
Try this cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=54309&d=1192447925, and if it doesnt work try enabling hspda, and if that doesnt work, try calling your provider and ask them to make sure that your account is enabled for data. I tried all that, then, because i dont have a data plan, but i use pay per usage, i went to ATT's site and added a data plan. Now it works, so i think its disabled on ATT's side. GOOD LUCK FELLOW HACKERS

Every time I start-up my phone (from cold), it goes online.
This is a pain since it connects via 3G and drains my battery unless I remember to disconnect it.
I've looked everywhere to find the app that is causing this behaviour and I've disabled everything I can find to try to prevent it.
Is there any way of checking what is causing this? I'm running Satin and Radio 1.48.
Try using a tweaker (like HTweakC) and disabling AutoAttach. Might work - never tried it, but mine connects too. Not sure what other unintended consequences it will have, but it is reversible. I imagine it may just prompt you before connecting.
Other possibility is active sync?
Not sure.
Go into comm manager and make sure 'Push email' isn't enabled.
One of the first things my phone does after a soft reset is connect to data.
I'm always connected to data, because I use 'Push'
But I also have 3g disabled and only use it when necassary.
I used to use BandSwitch to use GSM only, But Schap has that toggle built in.
There should also be a Band selection available in Phone Options.
If not, there's a reg fix for that.
Don't know if any of what I just posted helps. :-/

Okay I am really starting to regret this phone as its being a pain. I have an ATT tilt2 on Rogers and settings all work.
On my Kaiser when an app needed the Data it would turn it on and all would be good. Then after a certain amt of time of non use it would disconnect the data. Is there a setting that allows the phone to turn on the data when its needed? It seems that its either on or off.
This leads me to the second issue. About 5 times a day I get a message that the connection failed. I can then go to the settings and turn on the data connection and the internet will work again. I have never turned it off nor do I have any programs that restrict it.
Lastly, I have a bunch of factory connections that I can not use as I am not on ATT's service plus a few I created when I was first setting up the phone. I can delete some of them in connection manager how do I get rid of them permanantly?
It seems to me that there is way less user configuration in 6.5 than in 6.1 yet thanks to ATT its 3 times as large. Can anyone suggest a work around for the Data on demand issue?

I use HD Tweak and it works fairly well. Because the hardware is a little different, not all of the settings translate, but the things that are common between both phones works fine. You can find the link on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
Under section 6 (Data), there is a "Disconnect After", which I set for 2 minutes. Once the data is idle for 2 mins, it disconnects. The next time a program needs it again, the data connects again. Don't forget to soft reset after making changes.
Hope this helps
Okay got it working
Thanks its working now. I had installed that but there must have been somthing corrupt in my ROM as I was also unable to Harddpl it. I did two hard resets in a row, was able to flash then reistalled and now it seems to work fine.
Now if someone would make an app that uses different LED's for different notices similar to the Kaiser Notification app that was awsome.
My stock Tilt2 has all of a sudden given me problems with the data connection. It tells me when I try to open apps such as FIM or the Weatherbug app that I don't have a data connection and I need to refresh it. I click refresh and still no luck. The thing is, it shows that MEdia net is connected. I can use the internet without any problems, though. It just seems to be when I run an app that required connectivity that it doesn't work. It also gave the the error when I tried to update the quickGPS function today.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Any experience this?
I'm sure someone knows what is going on.
I also could not get the Bing app to work right. I could not locate me (even through GPS), therefore could not search for anything nearby. I then downloaded the Google Maps app, and it worked fine! WTF???
Try Settings-Connections-Connection Setup.
That doesn't change a thing......
I don't know what happened. I just tried downloading a new app that also gave me a "failed connection".
Anyone have a clue?

You'll need to search in the forums here for the correct network settings based on what carrier you're with (T-mobile, Sprint, Vodaphone, etc), and go through them and correct whichever of yours have gotten set wrong.

I tried this last night and believe that all my settings are correct. (AT&T)
The internet runs fine using IE or Opera, it only appears to be apps that access the internet, such as the WeatherBug app, FIM, etc. FIM works to see things such as Status updates, etc, but it says "Failed using the internet connectio. Try to restart your data connection" and won't allow me to see who is online on the main page. Everything else thru FIM works fine.
The Weatherbug app gave me a similar error message and would not load any weather data or forecasts.
Here is what I have set, ya'll let me know if things are good.
Start/Settings/Connections/Advanced Network/
I have "Enable HSDPA/HSUPA" selected.
CHAP authentication is selected
CSD Line Type: Data rate 9600 bps(v.32)
Connection element: non-transparent
Start/Settings/Connections/Connections/
Advanced: Network Management:
Programs that automatically connect use: MEdia Net
Programs that connect via Private use: MEdia Net
Under the Wireless Manager, both the "Phone" and "Data Connection" are turned on, everything else is off (and has been since I got the phone. The apps listed above worked this way also before).
I have also gone thru Start/Tools/Proxy Manager/ and done the Restore Proxy as suggested on other threads.
I am at a loss......a Hard Reset is my last resort, as I will have to go through my business to download the Good.com software again to get my work emails going (not that it is a hard thing to do.....)
FYI, I am running the stock AT&T ROM also.
Lastly..... if I did do a hard reset and decided to flash a cooked ROM, could I still run the Good.com Mobile Messaging software for my work email??
Thanks in advance!
I'm on AT&T in Michigan & my GPRS authentication is set "PAP Authentication"
I've tried both with no change in my original problem.

Anyone solve this? I've been having similar problems... WIFI internet sharing lost the relationship to MEdia Net, but Opera and IE work just fine. Now Google Maps won't work, says there's no data network. ANd now, MMS picture messages won't work, says "Proxy Error".
I don't screw with the settings. Ever.
?????
I was having a similar problem with the data side of it. After talking to tech support at AT&T and HTC, no help there, I changed the setting from Enable HSDPA/HSUPA to Enable HSDPA only. Data problem appears to be fixed over 3g anyway. I haven't been using it long enough to say it is ACTUALLY fixed still but it's working at the moment which is more than moments ago.
I was having issues with my MEdia Net on AT&T. Every so often I would get the message that "The remote party has ended this connection" and when I would try to edit the MEdia Net settings to make sure they were good I would see "The connection is pre-configured. It cannot be modified."
It turns out that settings \\HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations\MEdia Net\ReadOnly to 0 allows editing of the connection and then removing the username and password that are specified for the MEdia Net connection makes the connection more stable.
I wanted to put the solution I found in one concise place as I had to dig around quite a bit to find this answer.
In case you want to add back in the username and password for some reason they are [email protected] and CINGULAR1. See http://208.74.204.154/t5/forums/for...age-id/53168/print-single-message/true/page/1 for more information.
I have also included a CAB that will turn off the read only setting for MEdia Net in case you won't want to have to mess with the registry. I hope this helps someone.
UPDATE: I also found that my settings kept setting to ims.cingular randomly for an unknown reason, which of course breaks my connection. I could reset my phone to get it back to wap.cingular, but that is a pain. I therefore deleted all the other connections on my phone using the Connections applet in Settings. Under the Advanced tab you can choose Select Networks, then Edit every network in the list except for MEdia Net and delete it from the General tab. Then just make sure that both the Internet and Private Network settings are set to MEdia Net and you should be good.
UPDATE 2: The problem of my settings reverting back to ims.cingular continues to happen randomly. I searched my registry for any instances of ims.cingular and found one at HCLM\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS\APN which I changed to wap.cingular and updated the CAB file below to make that change as well.
UPDATE 3: The problem continued. When seems to have fixed it for good was to delete the MEdia Net settings and then to add the settings to My ISP. The only thing that needs to be set is an access point name of wap.cingular. There is no username and password. That change has worked for over a week for me now. You'll still need the cab below to unlock MEdia Net so you can delete it.
UPDATE 4: The problem still came back. The latest thing I tried was to change the name of the connection to Cingular instead of the standard MEdia Net. That seems to have worked for a few weeks now. I also made the same change to my wife's phone and that seems to be better as well. The attached CAB will make the connection editable and then you can rename it on your own.
THANKYOU!
You saved my butt on this one. I was helping an end user of ours on a HTC Tilt 2. The AT&T Tech's insisted that troubleshooting this problem was going through and clearing out the cookies,cache, and history inside the Opera Browser.
What a total crock of .... I kept explaining to her that it's the DATA CONNECTION not THE FRIGGIN INTERNET BROWSER.
Anyways, simply running the attached cab to allow me to edit the media net settings let me correct the ims.cingular setting which solved the entire problem right away.
After clearing those 3 settings in Opera both techs insisted that to fix it I had to do a hard reset. I was furious. I knew they were taking the easy way out of it and I wasn't about to tell this guy that is billed out at over $300 an hour that AT&T was too lazy to properly fix the problem so we just had to reset the entire phone and all your stuff is lost.
As the title says, I didn't change anything about the phone's configuration when I was out, didn't download any new apps or change any settings that would interfere like this. No one else has changed my home network in my absence.
Nevertheless, most of my apps, such as Instagram, the Play Store, Twitter, Wikipedia, Chrome; almost all their requests time out. There seem to be short windows where data will load, and Instagram appears to load comments and post metadata, but no images. It's basically unusable. Occasionally an exclamation mark will pop up over my Wifi symbol in the notification center. Strangely, I can still reach my Steam and Battle.net authenticators, but the moment I try loading the Steam app, nothing comes up. It's like the device can only handle plaintext over Wifi.
All of the apps work fine over cellular data.
Also, there is a toast that appears whenever I restart my phone that says "Power On" that I've never noticed before. I was rooted using Xposed, the only modules I used were Snapprefs, Xinsta, Physical Button Music Control, and Greenify Experimental Features, all of which I uninstalled. The toast still appears with the latter two disabled. Only other rooted apps I had besides Xposed were Nova Launcher, Greenify, Busybox, and Root Checker Basic, all of which have been removed but Nova.
I am running 6.0.1 with the latest update.
Any ideas? I am still within 15 day warranty so I could theoretically return the phone (which I was contemplating doing anyhow since 10gb of functional storage is a bit too small for me), but would rather not have my hand forced, and eat into my cell data plan.
So far I have tried forgetting the network, wiping cache/dalvik with TWRP, removing the Google VPN, resetting all network settings, and a couple things I can't remember offhand now. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

First, if you want to return your device because the 16gb model doesn't have enough space, go ahead.
If it is mostly because of this WiFi issue, I wouldn't return the device, it is almost certainly the case this is some configuration issue (possibly in concert with some Android bug) which can be resolved.
Is it possible when you came home the device connected to a neighbor's AP and thus you couldn't use data, but it wasn't immediately obvious, so you ended up forgetting your own network and reentering the config, but the key was off by a little, and from that point on, it was just assumed the wifi config was correct?
When you say Google VPN, are you using WiFi Assistant and Project Fi? Have you tried disabling auto-connect fir the WiFi Assistant?
Have you tried using the old Lollipop DHCP client (perhaps your IP address got used by another device and the new Android client doesn't handle that well?) Just grasping at straws.
Have you tried turning on Bluetooth while WiFi is on? Perhaps there is a bug with them working independently of each other in certain situations.

I am 100% positive I am on my own home network and that I used the correct key. I'm not sure what you mean with regards to the rest of the 'config', I have always used the standard wifi configuration, just typed in my key and had it work.

I actually forget what it was called, it was under Settings>Wireless&Networks>More>VPN. There was one entry there with an icon. I forget the name of it, but the icon looked like a stock Google icon and I think it had google in the name. I am on Project Fi, not using any wifi assistant (at least not in Advanced Wi-Fi Settings), but when I tried to toggle that option on just now, something called "VpnDialogs" crashed, so I assume that VPN entry was that. But again, the assistant wasn't on.

I don't use Bluetooth, and trying to toggle it off/on from the control center just gives me a repeated "unfortunately, Bluetooth Share has stopped" error message.
I have decided to get the 32GB 5X since I do want more storage, but since I would like to be able to root my phone again and use Xposed, I would still like to hear any other ideas you have for troubleshooting this problem in case it reoccurs.
I reflashed the latest update to see if that would fix it, no dice. When I send the 16GB model back I have to factory reset it anyway, so I suppose I'll know if that does it.
What puzzles me is why I can load text from instagram posts that have been posted while I've been having this problem, but not images. Makes me think that maybe my connection is being super throttled somehow rather than non-functional, but my PC's speeds are normal. Perhaps some internal part is damaged? I do have a case and it hasn't taken any serious tumbles, but it has had one or two small falls from maybe 2 feet high.

It is easy to test if you have some network connection vs none.
In terminal or adb shell
ifconfig wlan0
ping www.google.com
1st command will tell you (among other things) if your wlan picked up an IP address.
2nd command will test whether you can send ping packets over your connection.
I'm sure there are millions of ways of doing the above, I just gave you one example.
Strangely, the solution seems to have come from factory resetting my router. I ruled this out initially because my other old phones were working fine on wifi, my phone is now getting WiFi again.
Now to figure out what the hell this "Power On" toast is about...

I've encountered something similar where the router runs out of NVRAM space because it has recorded too many DHCP clients, it won't hand out new IP addresses, but if you are existing or already have one, it is fine.
