FIDO GPRS SETTINGS HELP FOR IM portal

Before you go on to post "read the wiki" ,"search the thread noob" etcetc
Ive done that and i found no help for it other than some settings, which i already tried(didnt work) and ive gotten more settings from the fido csr
and ive plugged those in but still no.(tested gprs/edge by starting pocket IE)
no connection.
I've gotten the value pack for fido which includes the Instant messaging portal for msn and yahoo where i can chat and message and check email unlimited... now the only problem is i cant connect to gprs/edge to use it.
question 1. how do i get the dam settings to work?
question 2. am i able to use the messenger included in the rom? or do i need to use the one specifically for fido?
question 3. once the previous 2 are answered..... Am I able to make it where only the associated program uses gprs/edge for data..so that way if i use pocket ie on wifi i can still use watever im using with gprs?
ie: surf the net on wifi, while im chatting msn on gprs?
thats all i got for now,
I'm using a softbank x01ht with black majik rom.
Thanks for any help i receive.

When I first got a windows phone I was so determined to get it set for Fido's services. With my Universal it took me days to figure out what the settings were. I thought I knew everything after that. Turns out that there are a bunch of other factors such as MMS won't work until you've exchanged msg's with another FIDO customer. Also internet doesnt work without a proper plan first, it doesnt work like it used to , which was PAYG. Lastly the settings don't kick in until you reset the phone, and even then I have heard stories from some where it took upto half hour for some settings to kick in. I find it so complicated now that I seem to know where all the free wi-fi hotspots are around my area.
I hope this doesn't discourage you from figuring out ur settings through trial&error.

I encounter none of what you said. I dont use MMS so I am not familiar with ..all others is no big deal.
It takes me 30 seconds for set up and I am ready to go.
ps: I am on a unlimited for years.....

Well I guess it mustve been different with the Universal and your Hermes.

thanks for the feedback still havent figured it out as of yet though i do know theres supposed to be a dial out to *90# or something like that cant check the txt i received from fido right now.
anyways i hope to get it up soon, im gonna try to port over the IM program thats in my friends rogers tytn and see if i can change the settings on that thing for fido.
wish me luck

They toys bahave different

You bet money on it. I have an 8125 and also an 8525, both have exactly the same UI to set the connections up, however with exactly the same settings I´m able to surf the WEB, get GMail, all MSN Live services,etc only with my Wizard because with the Hermes I´m able to open just a very few wap sites. I´ve had this problem since day one with my Hermes and looking for a solution in this site and in many others I´ve found that I´m not the only lucky person with a $400 toy that performs worst than the cheapest Nokia, there´s a lot of people with same problem and nobody knows why this happens. (See my signature)

For those who've got it working, could you please share HOW? It would be much appreciated.

email problem ~ error synchronising

like most here I ama compulsive flasher, so no complaints from me for all the new roms that come out. I just have a problem with the last two light weight roms I have tried here on tmob in the uk. strange problem so wondering if its the rom or me (i am posting this from the hermes on the train so you can clearly see the internet connection itself is running fine.)
the problem is that after adding my fastmail.fm email account (has worked fine with 100s of roms before) and selecting send/receive. I get the error synchronising message. almost instantly, no delay, this suggests to me its not even going to the network.
what could this be.
supadupa and the latest light one from the dutch author seem to be the roms I used. although I flash so regularly im not sure, haha. another problem with this dutch one is the keyboard is not properly mapped. just for the record.
apart from this I am loving the speed of these light roms. I don't need word excel etc. just the phone email. pocketputty for ssh and tomtom which I stick on later.
any help appreciated or a recommendation of a light rom for me. off on hols on the weekend and wanna get the phone working before that. anyone know if tomtom maps cover greece. I will be driving there. scuse the fact its a bit ot.
ta
bb

anyone got any ideas...try another [email protected]

I have experienced this before. If it is immediately giving the "error synchronizing" thing then it is in your settings. Go into you message/ options/ email/ and go to the page that you enter your outgoing mail settings. On this page it gives you an option for advanced server settings. Once you click on this you'll notice at the bottom option "network connection" you can select the internet, media net, work etc... I guess these options vary but you get the idea.
Anyway this is has always been the culprit so you may want to ensure these are correct. And if this does not work, then I would recommend going back to a known working rom.

thanks, worked a treat. I missed this setting. Never had to change this on previous flashes.
ta, happy.

8525 + WM6.1 = cant send email + No camera?

After installing Hard SPL 2.0, ATT radio 1.5.4, and Pays 6.1 i have the following problems, have searched for a few days now and still havent found anything.
I installed a CAB to set up my phone for ATT service, now i can recieve email, get online and Download MMS. SMS is fine. I can even use internet sharing perfectly. (although OUTGOING email also doesnt work when teathered.) Everything else is good besides:
No Camera, No Flashlight, No Superbright. Cannot SEND email via smtp with auth. Tested the smtp from my pc (not teathered) and it works fine.
If anyone even has this problem, make me feel better that im not the only one. I have tried flashing to different ROMs and camera has never worked since 6.1 flash. I also installed radio version 1.4.8 and still coulnt send email. - could this be my internet settings?
Thanks to all who can help!

Did you flash to a stable ROM (eg original WM 6 ROM) before fashing Pay's ROM? My two cents; try flashing your phone again, this time flash to an original wm6 ROM like a AT&T ROM, soft-reset before customizations start, then flash Pay's ROM. Hope this helps.

Soft reset before customizations start?
When the phone turns on for the first time after flash - before the customization screen? Is that what is meant by that?

I would definatly flash to an offical AT&T ROM and then see what happens..

I had installed the official WM6 rom - camera did not work. Did not set up email so i dont know if that worked. I also installed a custom ATT specific rom which camera did not work.
Why would i have all other types of internet access except outgoing email?

Camera problem
I get that from time to time on my 8525 (Hermes). The fix is simple, unplug the phone from any power source, pop out the battery, wait about 20-30 seconds and place the battery back in.
In the old "PDA only" world, this is what we'd call a Battery Reset. More effective than a Soft Reset and not as drastic as a Hard Reset.
When my 8525 (Hermes) Camera stops working, as well as the flashlight and all, I do this little trick and it fixes it every time.
I hope this fixes things for you!

I am having the same problem with my 8525 running pays rom tried everything still can't send email. tried flashing to an official att rom same problem problem started only after i flashed to pays rom....help.

Camera problem
I Flashed my XDA Stellar with supposedly the official wm6.1 rom. Now my TOM TOM takes forever to get a fix and although my camera still takes pictures, there is no view finder image to show me what im looking at. Dissapointing.

IE Issues after WM6.1 upgrade

Hi, I upgraded to WM6.1 over the weekend, everything looks pretty cool.. But IE can not get on the internet anymore.
I'm able to check the email okay but IE reports the following error
HTTP ERROR $CODE$
I see the Edge (E) come up when I launch the IE so that means IE is trying to open the connection but does not bring anything back.
Someone please help

That is the same error I get.

I scanned pretty much all related thread did not find anything yet...

Hi, Newbs. When you flashed your phone did you use the "Sticky: The Guide for UPGRADING WM 6 to 6.1 with PICS and LINKS" I'm pretty sure you both skipped a step naughty naughty....
Well if you go to the Sticky and look at post #3 and run your connection setup like you were suppose too, we wouldn't be having this conversation . It honestly should be that simple.
Good Luck

Internet Explorer not working?
I've been able to figure out every other problem with my IE, but now this one has stumped me, and i need help.
i'm using Wifi, and for some reason i cant go to any websites. even a site such as google wont work.
I get an error that says "The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again."
and i know for a fact that im not typing in "http://www.google.com" wrong. its not a hard one.
its not my connection. im sitting right next to my wireless modem and router and my computer is working fine. in the Comm Manager i have full Wifi service.
There was at one point when i a site to work, but then IE went back to the IE homepage on its own and wouldnt work again.
SOOO pleaseee, if anybody can help, please do
Thanks guys =]

Not sure if this will help but...
I have found that if I switch networks from my "E" data plan to my home WIFI, or vice-versa, I have to quite IE (press the pink tmobile button and select "close" for IE) then restart it and viola it works. I seem to have to do this anytime I was using IE on one network and then connect to another without my phone being turned off at anytime in between.
Hope that helps.

If you are running Ricky's v24:
Start > Accessories > Connection Setup
Run the Connection setup, select United States and T-Mobile. I think that you'll need a reboot after the settings update.

I 2nd That
That's exactamundo correcto. Trust this man. He is dead on.

having the same problem and after running the connection set up again still getting the "http error $code$ $message$ requestURI=/"
I'm on the 5.99 t-zones. the really weird thing is right after the flash it was working then tried it about 30 min later and nothing. I've tried about 4 different variations of manual settings I can find. Any help?

I'm having the same problem with internet after upgrading to 6.1. Yes I have ran the connection setup and let it reboot, tried it twice with no luck. Txt messages still work, just doesn't seem to access any internet sites. I'm using the 19.99 plan and running Kavana's 6.1 080408 final. I have also tried using the manual settings provided by Tmobile
Any ideas?

does your MMS work?
if not call t-mobile to reenter you into their network. 5 minute call.

do the connection setup then do the tzones hack it worked fine for me and this is the second dash after my first one went out. Not one problem installing anything use search I dont post must as u see but I have done plenty of mods on thru this site without asking questions all the answers are out there just search and read.

Cant get MMS to work on Dash with WM6.1 (unlocked to work with ATT)

I cant recieve any MMS or send them either. They just stay in the outbox when I try to send them. When I was with tmobile, they worked, but then I unlocked my phone, switched to ATT, and upgraded to WM6.1 and they no longer work.
What can I do?
Thanks

Thanks! I actually tried this before, but it wasn't working until I did a few different things. Whenever it tells you to add something, make sure you delete everything else first. I don't know if there really is any difference, but it worked for me.

Can you please provide more detail? I've had no luck trying to send picture thru mms.

Yah I have tried to help him with no success either... Hopefully someone out there is using At&t and is able to help him out.

Arite man here goes nothing, but an attempt...
I work in the technical department of a cellular service provider in the caribbean. We are not as advanced as the americans, etc in the sense of having 3g and stuff like that. Anyways, lol we do provide edge service and i have a dash w/wm6.1 Rom. I also have blackberry connect on my device. Up until recently i never tried sending MMS, so when i attempted to, i ran into a similar error. after reading a thread to fix on here, i finally received my first MMS (which was pending for days by the way), but i still couldnt send.
here's my fix...
since im using BB connect on my device, im connected with EDGE all the time. so i used my connection settings and just added or subtracted a few options from the MMS settings.
the only options i ticked in the settings were: automatic download in home and roaming network, save sent messages and allow delivery report. i then inserted the necessary MMS settings provided by my network: URL, Gateway, Port; always connect via the Internet. After this i was able to receive.
The problem with my network is that it uses WAP or blackberry to send or receive MMS, but since im using BB connect, i wouldnt have all the defaulted settings as a BB device would, so i had to set up a WAP connection and i was able to get rid of my messaged stored in the outbox.
this should be a good solution for you if you know the settings for your service provider, or you can always call and ask for the settings, since it cannot be sent OTA with the Dash.
Yea i know its kind of a long post, but i wanted to give a detailed rundown of how i got mine to work.
