I had this working yesterday however just exchanged my phone and reloaded everything. the connection times out on pocket ie and when i simply go to the web address in another browser it says cingular video is only available on certain 3g phones.
I was using it yesterday even though i am not in a 3g area, but i am in an edge area. does someone think i have a connection issue. i am using the default from black 2.5 medianet connection with wap.cingular as acesspoint. Anyone else with this issue. I put to constantly stay connected to medianet in htctweak but that did not resolve the issue.
i asked in the black 2.5 thread but i did not get a response. by the way the enable disable proxy button doesn't seem to do anything to change it.
I can connect to medianet am xm radio mobile. I appreciate anyones help.
EDIT: SORRY THIS IS ACTUALLY AN OUTAGE IN MY AREA VERY SORRY FOR THE THREAD. MODS PLEASE DELETE
I'm sure I've seen a setting that says something like "allow calls when data connected". I'm sure I used to be able to make calls when I had a 3g/hsdpa connection but since upgrading from Black 2.5 to 3.0, it doesn't seem to allow this any more.
Does anyone recognise the setting that I've inaccurately defined?
Unless I'm mistaken, when on a 3G network voice and data co-exist automatically.
What you may be referring to is a ck box when setting up AS to allow an internet connection to for MMS and VOIP.
Yep, That happens to me. I am just waiting for JJ's new rom and see what happens. 2.5 was working great for me but 3.0 amd 3.0.1 both have Bletooth issues and loose Data connections
Thanks to Mr DSL..check this out for all your cingy Needs
New Cingular Data Install cabs for your WM6 ROM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the obvious confusion with data settings and Cingular users I want to get this taken care of. I know theres a .cab floating around for this already but its already know that it doesn't store the username/password sometimes and it also seems to have a problem with some users keeping a exchange connection for whatever reason.
This has went much better then I thought and I would like to give a big thanks shogunmark and wpbear for making the .cabs for all of us to use. Much appreciated
I have at least loaded each of these up on a fresh WM6 ROM and they all seem to work fine so hopefully some more users will test them out.
The first download will load up the default Cingular MediaNet/ My ISP WAP MMS Settings and of course MediaNet will be the default.
The second download will load up The same settings except My ISP WAP will be the default connection instead of MediaNet
The third download is basicly the same as the second one but is for those who have the PDA data plan and want to use isp.cingular/[email protected] instead of wap.cingular/[email protected]
It will load the photo pic/vid in browsing for vids and searching but when you go take watch it just gives you the continuous loading (spin wheel) but no percent loading
Hi,
Just tried this for you and its working fine on mine
Jas
Are you on T-Mobile? Have you disabled HTTP proxy? I ran the youtube app on my Hermes a few months ago, and I seem to recall it would only work if you bypassed T-Mobiles proxy.
Thats a very good point, thats caused me problems in the past with exchange and Slingplayer etc.
YouTube not working
Hi Guys,
I can't get youtube to work either, I have already disabled the proxy as that screwed up my exchange connection but I'm not even getting a list of videos, it just says that there is no connection available at this time - I am connected via GPRS.
I'll try it again tonight when connected through HSDPA and also via WIFI to see if T-Mobile is blocking me or it's just crap.
Youtube
Has anyone tried m.youtube.com?
it connects through your streaming media program, it works perfectly that way.
no issues wid youtube here! i will say that over GPRS it will not load as connection will time out! over HSPDA it works and with WIFI also. just palyed a 10 min video over HSPDA and didn't even stop to buffer once!
Yes tried to disable proxy but they were already disabled. On at&t running edge and wifi no worky Besides this issue awesome phone

Mine now works a treat, I needed a fast connection (HSDPA) to bring it into life but it now works even in regular GPRS.... although slow and buffers a lot! lol
Mine dont work either, it was working on wifi when at home. disabled proxy as emai wasnt working.
No issues with YouTube (T-Mobile Germany)

I am having the same problem with a TP2 on the ATT network. What I have noticed is that Youtube will work using the wi-fi but as soon as I use it on the EDGE network it renders the wi-fi inoperable. I can still view videos over the EDGE network but I can no longer view through the wi-fi connection. I have tried a soft reset but the only way it will work again is through a hard reset. I have also experienced it not working on both wi-fi and EDGE using a different ROM. I am currently using the Energy ROM 20090917 Standard and it was working fine over the Wi-Fi until I tried to view a video through the EDGE network.
The ROM I found that would work on both Wi-Fi and EDGE is the UDK TiRv1.1_0409, however the MMS didn't work because of Manila 2.5 so I switched to the above ROM with Manila 2.1.
Is there a way to clear the Youtube cache or reset its settings?
no issues here, you tube works flawlessly
Has anyone noticed certain vidoes that are inaccessible via Mobile? For example, I can't access Lonely Island's "I'm on a boat" video via youtube mobile on my tp2 but I have no problem seeing other more non-popular clips.
my youtube wont work
i keep getting a microsoft error message
anyone have any idea how 2 fix that
Is anyone else having issues with the Sling Player not working with the TP2 over the T-Mobile US 3G Network.
I get the error message - "Unable to connect to Slingbox" only when I connect over the T-Mobile US 3G network.
When I connect over Wi-Fi from outside it connects and works perfectly.
Out of curiousity I tried Internet Sharing from the device launched Slingplayer from my computer using the tethered connection and it works perfectly.
This leads me to believe that T-Mobile is blocking the connection. Any ideas to get around it.
On a side note my SIM card is provisioned for the Total Internet and the Slingplayer works fine when I use the same SIM card on a Dash 3G.
I have the stock T-Mo ROM and no mods done to it.
Please help
Here in the UK my sling media player works fine over the 3 network and wifi. So I would think you are right and it's your network that is blocking it or some settings need to be changed.
I'm in Atlanta on the T-Mo 3G network and TP2. Slingplayer works great, way better than when I was with ATT. By the way I have the unlimited internet plan of $34.99 if that helps.
Are you using the finder ID ?
At the moment it's working ok for me using the (easier) sling finder ID. But,
I have have seen problems connecting in the past.
I'm currently running Energyrom Genesis (WM 6.5). I dont remember if the problem occured when I was running the original 6.1.
In any case, you might have better luck using direct IP access instead of the Sling Finder. It's kinda complicated if you've never delt with setting up Port Forwarding on your router.
You also will probably need to set up a dynamic DNS server to find you IP from the outside (unless you have a static IP - dyndns.com). I don't remember if the sling box can take care of this (I have a network HDD that performs the function).
There are instructions on the Sling web site.
This also has an advantage that you don't need to bounce through the sling site to find your box.
works well for me over $5.99 tzones, so its gotta be the settings you're using. as mentioned, try both the sling finder ID or the direct ip.
Works for me on unbranded TP2 on Tmobile. I suspect you need to go to Tmobile internet connection settings and untick Use proxy. I have done this to also get Exchange direct push email to work
doesn't work for me on new AT&T
I just got my AT&T Tilt2 today and Slingplayer isn't working. I get the same message. It works on my laptop, so it's not the Sling side. It also worked on my Fuze.
try making sure "use proxy" is not ticked. I do this as it seems better for surfing etc (never fan of proxies) but HAVE to do it for Exchange Activesync to work

In my Connections, the Media Net setting under the Proxy section has "This network connects to the internet" checked, but there is no check on the "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
I went back to my Fuze and Slinplayer doesn't work on that now.
Could if be AT&T? I upgraded my phone but did not want to change anything on my account as I already had unlimited data and a text message package. Is there something they could have done there that will cause this? As previously stated, Slingplayer works on my laptop. The problem started mid-week this week about the time my new ATT Tilt2 would have been 'activated' and shipped.
Thanks!
Did you test it on WiFi? I loaded Sling on my stock AT&T Tilt2 and it works just fine (I had unlimited data before the switch). I had to add my Slingboxes seperately by entering their finder ID's but after that it worked.
I first tried it traveling in Austin TX and now in So Calif and it's all good. I'm also using WMLonglife and the radio stays normally in Edge, start Sling and the radio now auto switches to 3G and streams away. Close the prog and it switches back to Edge 2G.

I did test it on wifi this morning ... no luck. That's when I thought it likely wasn't the service and it was the application (it was around 2:00 am when I was messing with this hours ago and was beat). I just don't know what has changed on the phone app. I guess I'll try deleting the current slingbox and add it back from scratch and see what happens. Thanks for the suggestions.

Works fine on my tilt2 on AT&T...now if we could just get slingplayer to play at high resolutoin...its only at 320x240....at least push it to 640 x 480 would make picture sharper...
Works fine on my Tilt 2 on AT&T... Make sure you remove proxy and are using Media Net (wap.cingular)

Still nothing ... I've got the wap.cingular. Can you give me the step by step? I'm sorry, but I really need some assitance here. If I don't get this working, the Tilt2 goes back. I'm not sure what the problem is, as someone suggested bandwidth. But if Slingplayer is working for others, it should be working for me. If AT&T changed something on my simple phone upgrade (wanted to keep all cell, data and text services the same as my current), then I need to know. But if there's a simple setting I need to change, I'll do that. I am just unclear as to what eh exact steps are ... 1, 2, 3, etc. Sorry, but I need it simple since this doesn't appear to be working for me.
I just went back to clear storage and have the standard AT&T ROM. I ran the SlingPlayer Mobile .exe and loaded that to the phone. Please tell me what to do next. It seems as though if should be pretty simple from this step forward for those who have it working.
I need it that simple as everything I've tried isn't working.
Thanks!
I'd say make sure you have the latest Sling Mobile player. Mine worked straight off after I entered the slingfinder numbers. I did NOT have the proxy removed and it works just fine via WiFi, 2G, and 3G, but YouTube would not play videos until I removed proxy tonight.
Make sure that you can open a browser and freely surf the web, go to Sling Media, make sure you do have internet access?

If you tether a PC thru your 3G phone and can run Slingbox player on the PC at 640x480 or better (as I regularly do) then it can't be a bandwidth issue. It is an artificial limitation of the PPC client.
It's working now ... for whatever reason?!
Well, if all else fails, then load the program again. This time it worked. Not sure what happened the first time around, but it's working now. I'm not sure what happened differently, but I guess it doesn't matter. It's working now. Thanks for the recommendations! Cheers!

wow, i'm sorry you payed for the sling system :/
i have tilt 2 with a energy rom and wifi rtouer is built in.
on past roms, i would fire up this app and "start" it and everything would work.
well in a newer rom the wifi router app throws up a error saying it could not connect or something like that. so then i noticed that there were some settings that i could change, i can change the internet settings the options are:
att isp gprs, media net, wap.cingular, isp.cingular
it was on gprs and i changed it to media net and it seems to be working.
i dont have a teather plan, nor do i want one. i might use this app or one like to to connect to my lapptop maybe 3 or 4 times a year.
my question is, can i use media net with no problems or extra fees on my bill, or do i need to use one of the other settings?
thanks
