Somehow I can't get the MEdiaNet Proxy to work properly. I've configured my internet settings to what is widely available information.
_______________________________________
When I have IE configured as follows:
IE > Tools > Options > Connections > Select Network: WAP Network
I can't access the MEdiaNet homepage nor any other site on the web. Instead I get a return error that says: "The Requested Page can not be displayed."
_______________________________________
When I have IE configured as follows:
IE > Tools > Options > Connections > Select Network: The Internet
I can get access to the web (which is more important at this point) but still not the MEdiaNet homepage.

The puzzling thing for me is that I didn't have this problem when I was under the unlocked T-Mobile ROM. Any help or insight is much appreciated.

I am not on cingular, but used to be a while back. this is what you should have.
gprs
APN: wap.cingular
username(CAPS): [email protected]
password: CINGULAR1
CONNECTS TO THE INTERNET
PROXY SET UP
connects from the INTERNET
to THE wap network
Wireless.cingular.com:80
make sure you deletet anyother proxy settings
in PIE tools/options/connections
choose wap network, try again auto detect on/off not sure.
that should work.
Yup. Those are my exact settings. I've checked it 100 times and still can't figure it out. Again, "THE INTERNET" works but the "WAP NETWORK" does not.
Something happened when I migrated to the HTC based rom. I'm wondering if there's a registry value that changes the way proxies are handled within wm5.
I had the same problem. Someone on howardforums.com told me to use 66.209.11.61:9201 as the proxy and to switch the proxy type from HTTP to WAP.
Worked like a champ (not sure why the normal settings don't work though).
Now if I could only get MMS to work...
Thanks for the tip! It works perfectly.
Just tested out my MMS settings to be sure that it was working. It is indeed working both for sending and receiving. Settings are as follows:
Go to messaging > MMS > Menu > Options > Account Settings > Menu > MMSC Settings
Create a new item:
Name: Cingular MMS (But you can call it anything you want)
MMSC URL: http://mmsc.cingular.com
WAP Gateway: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Connect via: The Internet
Max Sending Size: 300k
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
Cheers
What most likely will break is if you use wifi or your AS connection. It seems the settings are backwards on this device. And if you get that working, it will alwasy try to use a gprs connection even when a wifi or as connection is available.
Kind of sucks!
Proxy while using WiFi
Because Cingular uses a proxy setting you will not be able to use the WiFi as stated in the post above. You really do not need the proxy settings in to access the internet. I have had many devices with WiFi and have disabled the proxy on all of them and have been able to access full internet. With the proxy set you will only be able to get to "pda" or tiny screen sites. Try it out and let me know if it works. I have been thinking of getting either the HTC version or the Samsung Blackjack. I would rather have this one becuase I would prefer the WiFi over the 3G.
What are you thoughts?
Cingular MEdia Net
Wow...there is a GOD.
I made it a goal to get MEdia Net working on my phone, afterall, I am paying $20 a month for it. Like other users, I could get to any website, but not MEdia Net. This also happened after I upgraded the ROM (to remove the T-Mobile branding). I tried all suggested settings for IE, GPRS, and Proxy all from the various forums - xda, hofo, Cingular FAQ, called Cingular tech support. Nothing was working. Tonight I was farting around and stumbled upon this thread. I tried the Proxy settings above, and still nothing. I made several other changes and here is what I have now...
IE: tools/options/connections
Unchecked - Automatically Detect Settings
"Select Network" - Work
GPRS:
Connects to: The Internet
Access Point: wap.cingular
User Name(CAPS): [email protected]

Proxy:

Connects to: Work
Proxy (name: port): 66.209.11.61:9201

I know just like everyone else that MEdia Net itself does not have much to offer, but it was pi$$ing me off that it was not working. Now that I have it working though, I understand that there is a newer version of MEdia Net out or something?
when i had the cingular 2.06 rom my mms limit was 600k. Since upgrading to XDAlive and having to manually enter the media net and mms setting i'm limited to 300k. did anyone else notice this

Check the Wiki for the registry tweak to add 600k MMS. Involves changing one value and making one more.
I forgot the exact details (location of keys/values) off the top of my head but it involved changing SendDataLimit to 4 (or next number higher) and making SendData4 value = 614400 D_WORD(decimal)
Thats off memory...so double check the wiki.
Interesting here as too (have AT&T Wirless) and both MEdianet and Cellular Video were (apparently) removed with a cooked WM6.1 ROM...
Not really a biggie, but I wanted a 'morale victory'...to get both pages (URLs) to work with Mobile IE (without having to tweak/modify any connection settings..
Cellular video is: http://cingularvideo.cingular.com
Alternative MEdianet is http://infospace.com/infow.sbcw/
Because a I recently received a AT&T MEdianet email advising me of a lot of customization changes...and wanted to see what was up...
Both pages report: We are temporarily experiencing technical difficulites
First post and I did search to see if anyone reported this and did not find any posts. I updated to Black 2.5 from OEM rom and noticed that when I did repeated measurements of netspeed using DSL Reports Speed Test (Mobile) I was getting a consistant 800-900 Kbit/sec. After upgrade it appears to be about 300-500 Kbit/Sec. I stream using ORB (TV, Video's & Mp3's). A lot more buffering with 3.0.1. I have tried setting Temp internet to Main memory and SD card with no difference noted. I am using Wap.ingular AP. Any thoughts on why 3.0.1 appears to be slower. I did not change the Radio rom 1.16.00.00
I also do not see any speed difference between 2.5 and 3.0.1, but a bug difference from ther OEM rom.
Thanks. BTW sent $ to JasJamming for his awsome ROM.
First, Welcome to XDA-Dev
Remember to read the wiki before posting new threads because chances are the problem you are having has already been discussed several times.
Your network speed is due to several factors which include network traffic. What time of day were you doing your tests? Generally with these roms its best to go with the upgraded radio that actually may help.
I ran over 50 tests on both roms over several days. I guess that it may be a coincidence that on the days I was ruining 2.5 it was less congested and over the last 2 days it was more, but the difference was dramatic. You suggested I upgrade the radio. Do you have a recomendation?
Since the Core modules of wm6 were updated between 2.5 and 3.0 I was just wondering if other had similar results or is it just me (Wife says it just me)

Use isp.cingular instead to bypass the proxy.

Do you have HSDPA enabled? I think it's enabled by default on Black 3 but I can't remember for sure. I haven't done speed tests, so I don't know if that could be the problem or not.

What is the difference with isp.cingular?
isp.cingular
i tried doing this, and it won't even connect anymore here are my settings
AP : isp.cingular
UN : [email protected]
PW : CINGULAR1
It says it can't connect using this.
If i switch it back to
AP : wap.cingular
UN : [email protected]
PW : CINGULAR1
It woprks fine. Anyone else notice this? Am I missing something here?
Both using IP header compression

i used to use these setting, but on the wap.cingular setting i would set my proxy to wireless.cingular.com. That looks right and you should be able to connect with those settings. Personally I just use the cab provided here and under select network I use medianet connection.
It would be nice to get some feedback if it is any faster or slower than isp.cingular. I believe it is the same speed. I use the medianet connection(wap.cingular) because it enables me to do cingular video.
In addition, I use opera browser 8.65 and in my opinion its faster than PIE.
Thanks goes out to wpbear for the cab

your AP : "isp.cingular" should be "wap.cingular"
Everything else is fine unless you want to put in MEdia Net.
AP : wap.cingular
UN : [email protected]
PW : CINGULAR1
Then you would want to set your Proxy up,
Check : The network connects to the internet
Advanced : Click "HTTP" and put in "wireless.cingular.com" Port "80" Click OK
Click "Socks" and put in "localhost" Port "1080" Click OK to get out and should be set up.
Make sure that both your "isp.cingular" and "wap.cingular" have a check mark on the proxy that says ; "The network connects to the internet"
between those 3 settings you should get you connected. I use ISP

isp.cingular is a valid setting dude.
Actually I have the same problem. wap.cingular works but isp.cingular does not work. I tried so many times but with this ROM it just wont work.

It is for GSM Dial up. what plan do you have? Cingular has very confusing data plans. Be careful, these servers should not be interchangeable, it should depend on your plan. You may get charged per byte if you are not on the unlimited plan. So, make sure you're setting the right server.
GSM Dial Up connection
Phone Number: 19171234567
Username: [email protected]

or
GPRS Internet service

or
ISP.CINGULAR

CINGULAR1
Also dependes on the type of data plan you have. I have the PDA Connect Plan.
wap.cingular
* Provisioned for usage with GSM/GPRS/UMTS handsets and PDAs.
* Does not allow tethering of a laptop or PDA for internet access.
* Used for MEdia Net WAP browsing using a handset and HTML browsing using a PDA.

Check it out from the cingy web how to set up your 8525. don't believe, check it out.

No one answered me in the LVSW thread, but I was having strance IE problems with isp.cingular on that ROM. Low and behold I switched to black 3.01 and still had it (previious settings worked fine in Black 2.0)
Then I solved it... To fix the problem use the most recent settings in the cingular cab file at the beginning of this thread. then change the settings to isp.cingular.
Looks like there is some problem with DNS in these newest ROMs with PIE. If you look closely, the cab in this thread hard codes the DNS. Wala, then it works.
With old cabs or if you try to do the setting yourself you won't be able to connect with PIE but you will with Opera and other internet apps such as live. Setting the DNS yourself should also work, but there is an easy cab to do it so why bother.
I have the cab setup. I noticed he put in a server address. I set up MEdia Net and another ISP setting according to my plan and my ISP setting works the best. With the server address put in it stahls a little then connects as MEdia Net just is slower. You cannot connect WI-Fi with Media Net on...at least not for me

Because MEdia Net has a proxy set. You'll have the same problem when trying to browse via ActiveSync unless you change to My ISP. Or the proxy disable/restore stuff that's part the latest cingy WM5 and also adapted by CUSTEL to WM6 works quite well and precludes the need to change networks in order to bypass the proxy.
I'll also note that isp.cingular is only valid for PDA connect plans... if you have a MEdia Net plan you must use wap.cingular
Yep, I think this is the problem that a lot of people are blaming on the ROM. Maybe JJ should just come out with a Cingy also.
So when you activate a new phone you have to do all the *228 stuff to register it on verizons network. Since the phone gets programmed OTA you have to be using a Verizon network. Thats where my first problem happened. Since I'm in Alaska and there are no Verizon towers (just partners) everywhere is roaming and you cannot do the OTA update/activation.
I got the phone programmed by changing the NAM settings by "calling" ##778 but only voice and sms work right now.
Now the only problem is that I don't know exactly what I need to change to get the data communications working. I know in order to use data communication on a partner network (while in roaming) you have to first use some kind of data transfer on a verizon network. I can only guess that is so the phone gets programmed properly.
If anyone would care to share their knowledge or share their Modem Settings and M.IP profile information hopefully I can get this thing working 100% again; and by not using verizon's "only" method (as the customer service says)
Call back VZW and tell them that you need to do a manual program - I used to work there and they should walk you through all of the steps/entry over the phone.

I appreciate the insight espmetalhead, however when I called vzw and asked them about manually programming it they said the only thing they can manually program is voice/sms. To program the phone for data you HAVE to be in a verizon network no matter what. I don't really understand why. I have another phone (blackberry 8330) that has working data communication here in alaska. WHy can't you just take whatever settings the blackberry has for data and use it on the incredible? lol. man, its so frustrating. I really don't want to ship my phone to my parents and walk them through programming the incredible for me haha.
espmetalhead: hopefully in your experience you've came across a way to manually program a phone for data communication...
There is a way to do it from what I remember, you just have to get to a data tech this is high enough in the chain so they can do a walk through. A csr over the phone should be able to route you to the right person. I know I did some Windows Mobile device manual programs that fired up data.

Unfortunately, you have to be in the Vz network to program for data. They use an authentication key that can only be transmitted OTA through their own network for data services. It's a CDMA thing, so there's really no way around it.
so why isn't it possible to just read the key to me over the phone or something?
Idk, it just doesn't seem right. It seems like that has to be a way to do it manually...
Maybe I'm just in denial because I really don't want to send it back to the lower 48
Manually Programming for Data
Does anyone know how to program the Incredible to get data? For some reason after updating to 2.3.4 it just quick making calls and getting onto mobile networks. I solved the making calls issue by manually programming it through ##778. But now I'm without data, so does anyone have any ideas on how to get this accomplished? Any help would be great! Thanks!

hi this is Waseem from Pakistan i am facing much problems in activating my HTC droid incredible 2.
i have tried alot to update my phone but it's not working and the activation dialer is also work-less. please guide me through the whole procedure, what should i do next to activate my phone. i already have restored the factory setting twice but still not updating... i wil be very thankful to you for this act of kindness.
Ruud Westerhout said:
As a matter of interest :
1) Should I be disconnected from the net when I do this ?
2) Should I be taking the GSM-Card out of the phone when doing this
3) If I do a hard-reset now, and being asked x-cancel 0-hard-reset, what would be the result ?
4) Are there any other reasons for the device not being recognized, or not for soo long ?
PS. I am using the internet through a router/firewall and I am not using the XP-firewall.

Hello, just updated to Froyo and since that mobile internet doesnt work..

You need to set you APN manually. You google your ISP APN and set it, and everything will be up and run very well.
