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.

For those who've got it working, could you please share HOW? It would be much appreciated.
Hello everyone. I'll make this quick and easy question. I have successfully updated to 3.35 radio, and tried several different custom roms in the past 2 weeks... At some point, i lost my internet connection, went back to stock rom successfully, and tried entire process over with and without the new radio (depending on which rom i tried according to instructions) and still no internet. I have spent literally over 4 hours on the phone with bell (Canada) to no avail. Only other option is to beat it with a hammer. I have noticed a couple people have had the same problem.. i have read these and PPC forums for hours and hours and hours, to try and fix this and get my Data connection back. tried almost every Rom i could find... to no avail. I'm just wondering if anybody had a sound fix for getting the Data connection back working again before i go to the store i got it from and freaking out and trying to get a new phone, or sending it off for a warranty claim which they say could take 6-8 weeks. Thanks for your time.

This happened alot when
we were changing radiios
and roms on the Titans.
Most of the time the techs had to reset the
data security on their end. If they cant figure it
out , flash back to stock
radio and rom and go to
the store and swap it
out. Tell them you did
a hard reset and lost your data connection.
Good luck.
if you have another pda phone, get your carrier to activate it on your account, set it up ... get data working ... then get your carrier to switch it back to the one that had lost it's data connection, set it up ... try the data connection ... works every time on vzw ... I do the esn changes online ... give it a try ... couldn't hurt

just spent another hour on the phone with tech Support, he tried resetting the Data Security, completely removing my device from our account and putting it back on, and he also had one of his own Touch's with him, he added it to my account, and it worked fine.. still nothing on mine. Grrrrrrrr!! this is megga frustrating... its been a week 1/2 and now 5+ hour on the phone and an hour at the repair shop yesterday. he re-esclated the problem and now i have to wait again for somebody to call me. I really don't want to have it sent to HTC becuse it will take 6-8 weeks, and i truely think its something in my phone itself as a result of "playing" with it, and i'm just hoping that somebody can come up with something that I havent already tried to get it working again. Thanks for you time once again, and keeping my fingers crossed.
Go to the epst settings.
Find username and password in there ( i guess data parameters??). It will be wrong. [email protected]
change it to the right ones.
that is EXACTLY where i went a week or so ago. i found this information in another post, and the UN is there, but no password, and Bell insists there is no need for username and password... but i disagree... i also think this is the problem.. i really do... any ideas how the heck i can get what my password should be?
in teh Data parameters, the only thing that is in there is Packet Dial String ----#777 In the security section is the UN and Pass. field. Is this where you were talking about maybe?? or is there something missing in the Data Parameters section?? UN showing is [email protected]
GRRRRRR!! This really sucks.!! BIGTIME!. Ive been fooling with this thing since 6Am... lol One thing that i did forget to mention, is... when i say no data, or internet.. this is what happens..
When i try any app. that wants internet, it will bring up the connection screen, "Connecting to Data, network... #777" type thing..... sometimes it will just sit there forever and ever... if i hit cancel... then in order for me to even make a phone call, i have to soft reset.... sometimes... (about 50% of teh time) it will come up with an error screen after about 5 seconds of trying to connect, and it says "Unable to connect for an unknown reason, if you need to view or change settings, tap settings, if teh problem continues reset your device according to manufactures instructions, and try again."
I just downloaded and tried the new Sprint Leaked rom, with the 3.37 radio, and still same thing. i still think it has something to do with the Username and PW in the ##778 settings... because i do remember seing a bunch of (hex) information in the PW field in the past when i was snooping around and now its gone.... I even tried converting the two numbers that bell gave me to Hex and putting them in there... and nothing... the one that i seen in there before was a big ass long one... Anyhow... i'm almost giving up i'm soon going to get extremely angry and beat it or throw it off the 20 floow balcony just for kicks... <g> Thanks for reading.Any help is appreciated.

i am not with bell, so dont know what do they use. Maybe somebody else can confirm if they are supposed to be empty or not.
may be try empty username and password.
Then try the username you have right now and esn as your password.
i know on telus both will work.
YES YES YES YES!!!! ohhhh yeah babby!!..
i FINALLY got it working!! Yeeee hawww... if only you knew how happy this makes me... deer gawd...
I'll post what i did in the AM.. i can hardly keep my eyes open...
Thanks for all your input!
wanna share? i haven't had internet for the last three weeks and i am going nuts, tried with bell tech support for roughly 3 hours on the phone two seperate times and nothing. Please share

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! 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.

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.
I know I'm a noob, but I've been struggleing with this for a while now. I put in probibly 6 hours last night and haven't any clue if I'm even close to being complete.
I bought an HTC Touch MP6900SP (Sprint) and was told it had a clean ESN. Turns out it didn't and I'm up the creek because I paid cash. I bought it to replace my motor razr which has a clean ESN, but is quickly dieing. I'm trying to clone my ESN but can't get mtty to work properly. Once the ESN is swapped, the RAZR will go in my junk drawr.
I've tried to follow the steps here:
http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showpost.php?p=355768&postcount=1
but when I go to fire up mtty I can only enter the rtask a command then the program or phone won't allow me to do anything else, even type the next command.
In the boot loader I have the following info:
VOGU100 MFG
SPL-2.31.CoKe
CPLD-3
Can someone please walk a noob through this. I'm totally new to this whole unlocking thing and could really use some help. The phone is locked to the account of the previous seller who refuses to release it. I've got the 2.31.coke on there now and when I boot it normally I also have the Alltel rom that fires up. HELP!!! PLEASE!
Edit: In MTTY when I run rtask a this is what I see, but I can't type anything after that.
rtask a
Enter Radio Bootloader
POWER ON PMIC VREG_USB : SUCCESS!
This has been covered...
SEARCH!!! MTTY is actually working, you just can't see the text you are typing... Just be careful typing everything in and you will be good to go...
Alright, I got through MTTY, and am not onto working in CDMA workshop.
I put the phone into DM mode, Active sync disconnects, but CDMA shows it is connected to Com1 port successfully, but fails when I attempt to read the ESN.
I can't seem to find the diagnostic modem drivers that I need and think the lack of the drivers is what is causing me grief now.
Believe me, I'm looking everywhere I can to get information. I've got tons of hours into this now.
Edit: Got the drivers installed and working properly. Still having problems reading from the phone with CDMA.
Edit 2: Had to figure out the proper com port in CDMA, getting warmer.
scanning and finding esn addresses right now! If this thing works I'll be so damn happy!
im still reading up on this, but seeing information that has been corrected over time, then finding some old posts that may be outdated.
using MTTY with all of the steps to superCID... is that actually changing the ESN in one failed, fast swoop? Is it actually doing what CDMA does when scanning/writing?

Hey did you get this to work? I changed my esn last night and the phone works. Can make and receive calls. Only prob is that I can't connect to the internet. I think it is a problem with the user name/password but not sure. I keep getting the 67 error when trying to connect. I only changed the esn and nothing else.
Did you have any luck? If so what about the internet thing? Any help would be much appreciated. Been reading and trying to figure this out for a while now.
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply. No I had not tried the DCD carrier cab. First of all let me get this out of the way. NOOB here.
I tried researching the DCD cab because someone else suggested it and then tried it and it didn't work. I think it might be something with the user name and password for vision service. This is what I did:
Flashed the Touch (it is a sprint touch) to the 6.1 wm latest rom (sprint). Then did the esn swap from my razr (also sprint). After the esn swap I flashed again using the 6.1 sprint rom (just wanted to make sure nothing changed after I did a rom flash). Phone works fine on sprint and I even called them on it and they think it is a razr. I can make and receive calls, voicemail etc. Just can't get the internet working. Just get the 67 error. Any ideas?

Yea I have the old sero plan. It includes unlimited data. I think that is what you mean. I can run opera on it so it is working.

This might be trivial but lets check.
Goto:
Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks
It should show Sprint in top and Work network in bottom.
Click edit under Sprint and make sure its set to #777
Then try this:

Then have IOTA done by pressing start.

Thanks Csquared. I tried this and this is what I got. I also have posted this at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3413006#post3413006 . Not trying to double post but was getting some help over there also.
Phone is working great using the donor ESN but no internet. Here is what I've got:
- Sprint Razr (donor ESN phone) and Sprint Touch (Had bad ESN now has Razr ESN).
- Have Data plan on my Account.
- Did the changes from the original post and phone works fine (can make and receive calls)
- When I try and connect to the internet it gives me error 67, can not connect #777 and 1012 error.
What I have tried:
- Start/settings/services/internet/get settings/ and start IOTA.
- Tried making a new connection under start/settings/connections/connections and setup a new #777 connection.
- Changed Active Profile from 0 to 1 in ##3282#
None of this worked. Under ##3282# my settings are:
User Name:
Active Profile - 1
MIP_MODE - Mobile IP Only
User Name - (My Username)@sprintpcs.com
SPI MN-HA - 4D2
SPI MN-AAA - 4D2
ReverseTunnel Pref - Enable
Home Agent IP Address - 0.0.0.0 (for some reason it will not let me edit this setting)
Primary Home Agent - 0.0.0.0
Second Home Agent - 0.0.0.0
HA Shared Secret (HEX) – Blank
AAA Shared Secret (HEX) – Bunch of characters
Advanced:
ESN - Donor ESN (From Razr)
MSID - My Phone number
Not sure if any of this makes sense. I am just trying to get the internet working. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas. It does say "Preparing vision services" when I try to connect to the internet but always fails with error 67 Username and/or Password incorrect. Also get Cannot Connect Dialed #777. Also get error code 1012 could not prepare Vision services please try again later.
Thanks very much in advance for the help!

Well I know this is prolly not the right thread to put this under however I am not sure which is and the person who started this thread is doing what I wanted to know was possible to do. And second I was wondering how to do it. I am completely noob on this. I did as he did and bought a new phone which ended up having a bad ESN.
I have a Nokia with Verizon and it broke. They wont replace it for me so I went and bought an LGVX9100M. I have been researching for around 4 hours now and cant find a thing if I can take the ESN from my Nokia which is clean and working and put it to the LG to make it work. I am not familiar with any thing that has to do with programming cell phones or using the programs. I am however a pretty quick learner.
Is there a way to do this? Is there a program I need or a way to just do it in the phone? IF I can do this with a program how do I do it and what stuff do I have to replace the numbers with?
Bad ESN's= Unrecovered lost or stolen property, or property with a bill due over its usage.
Helping with Bad ESN's, is like helping repaint a stolen car.

I've been reading myself silly trying to figure this out & my attempts at Searching haven't helped, probably because I'm not fluent enough to use the correct terms. In spite of having this device for several months, I've never learned as much as I'd like. Anyway . . .
I finally flashed the newest stock ROM from HTC several days ago. The process seemed to go fine with one exception: I keep getting a notification that I have a new Voicemail when I don't. I check -- no new Voicemail. I Dismiss, but the the notification keeps coming back periodically. Suggestions?
Other than that, things seemed to go smoothly, and I started slowly getting things back the way I like them. After reading & making sure I understood (or so I thought), I installed the .NET 3.5 Framework so I could use Crud Scraper to get rid of the stuff I clearly remembered using it for.
The .NET part went fine, and then I did the soft reset . . . and lost My Location on the Today screen that shows my weather. It now says I'm in Seattle, which I'm not -- I'm over a mountain range & about 350 miles east of Seattle. When I try to change the location, it doesn't find my town or anything in my area, for that matter..
The mysteriously (to me) reappearing Voicemail Notification is bad enough, but I really rely on the weather, particularly this time of year, and it's driving me crazy that I can't figure this out. Suggestions?
TIA
Did you try looking at the several threads on this ROM in the Rom Development forum? There's a fix in one of them for this problem.
For which problem? And, do you have any idea what thread?
And, yes, I did look in the thread I found (New ATT Tilt2 ROM) -- I believe I read every post before I flashed the latest ROM, even though much of it was over my head. That's where I learned that I had to install .NET 3.5 & reboot before CrudScraper would work.
I recall several people mentioning that the My Location worked flawlessly & how great it was having the location, and I read where one or two people seemed to be having the same weather problem I'm having, but I didn't see an answer. I read in one of the forums that there seems to be a bug (although not confined to the latest ROM) in certain parts of the world, and I read a thread where there seemed to by a problem with My Location in a cooked ROM that might or might not have been related to GPS not working. I read something else where My Location wouldn't work with 3G, only with Wi-Fi, so I tried that, even though My Location was working just fine after I flashed to the latest ROM -- that didn't help.
So, it's not like I'm asking because I hadn't already tried to find solutions myself. I'm not doubting that there are answers to both of my issues but rather that after spending several hours over the weekend trying to find the solutions, I've been miserably unsuccessful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked.

For the My Location feature, only part of the service is understood. For the most part, the location is determined by the cell towers your device connects to. It depends on where you are as well as the signal strength. Sometimes the request is not sent or received to/from the tower(s). It is more accurate usually when 3G is turned off. The alternative is to add your city manually. If the location servers can't figure out where you are, then it won't work.
Normally the stock ROMs fix this and work wonderfully after flashing. The best solution to this is to turn off 3G to get a fix or find your city manually.

I'm feeling really stupid here, but being a glutton for punishment, I'll keep trying.
Is it possible that maybe there was something wrong with the towers here that just happened to coincide with the soft reboot after installing .NET? The reason I ask is that My Location is now correct. Yay! That would be just my luck: bad timing.
Any suggestions about the incorrect Voice Mail notification? It for sure comes back each time I power up the phone. It seems to me it also reappears at other times, but I'm not positive about that -- I'm going to try to pay better attention.

Make sure to install .NET CF 3.5 to the device and not the storage card. You'll then need to restart, if it doesn't ask you to do so. You then need to force it to use 3.5 over 2.0. Use a registry editor and navigate to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework. Change the DWORD data of entry 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0. Then change the DWORD data of entry 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1 and then reset. This disables 2.0 and enables 3.5.
For a decent registry editor that can be used from the PC side, check out CERegEditor if you don't already have an editor of choice.
For the voicemail problem, there are two known solutions. You can either have someone call and leave you a voicemail. You would then check it and delete it. You can also simply call your provider and have them reset your voicemail account. Either one should work.
If neither of those options works for/appeals to you, you can give this a shot. There are no guarantees that it won't come back after a soft reset, though. Using a Registry editor, navigate to the following keys:
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line1\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Line2\Unread
HKCU\System\State\Messages\vmail\Total\Unread
There should be a value name "Count" with a REG_DWORD value
Change value to 0 in decimal or 00 in Hex.
It should remove voicemail notification icon from the taskbar.

Make sure to install .NET CF 3.5 to the device and not the storage card. You'll then need to restart, if it doesn't ask you to do so. You then need to force it to use 3.5 over 2.0. Use a registry editor and navigate to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework. Change the DWORD data of entry 2.0.7045.00 from 1 to 0. Then change the DWORD data of entry 3.5.7283.00 from 0 to 1 and then reset. This disables 2.0 and enables 3.5.
For a decent registry editor that can be used from the PC side, check out CERegEditor if you don't already have an editor of choice.

Many thanks! For the Voicemail, I used method one, and it worked
And, thanks for the instructions (and the reg edit program suggestion) to force use of .NET CF 3.5 because I missed that part -- yikes.
I'm on a dedicated mission to cut down on the elecronics I have to carry around, so I need to learn more about the features of the Tilt2 because if I can just figure things out (which I've not forced myself to do), the Tilt2 will, I think, be able to replace my PDA & iPhone.
Anyway, thanks again for your help!
