WM6 Black 3.0.1 advice please

Hi All,
Wow, Been a while since i had to post on here for help.
OK, before you all start flaming, Yes i have searched for a few days, inc. google and the WM6 Black forum 4winblack to no avail,
Everyone asking but no one answering and just flaming (hence no one can find the answer when searching and leaving them no choice but having to ask)
ME.
Member on here since 2005 ( so no noob, I always search and find )
have a MDA vario II HERM 300
Running Windows Mobile VI - Black Edition 3.0.1
IPL 1.04
SPL 2.10.OLipro
Radio ver. 1.41.00.10
T-mobile UK W+W
OK the burning question that has me stumped.
and i am cringing cause i dont want you to flame throw me.
Windows Live issue
Unable to establish an internet connection. Can this be fixed and How?
I have re installed WM VI black Live & messenger cab but still same issue.
Messenger Sign in as issue
How do i get to sign in there is no where to sign in
just a blank pick and the option to go online.
Are these issues fixed and are they just relevent to WM6 Black or all packages, am tempted to downgrade or switch roms in hope.
Finally as last resort will posket msn work on WM6
Again sorry for asking but i do truly search, it a shame when you do get new users using such a great forum and they get flamed, Remember if everyone is treated in this way, how can anyone search and find the answer.
I have opened countless posts on the subject only to find the person asking flamed and no answer given. This makes it near inpossible to find the correct answer.
Didn't come on to moan LOL. Have a good un all,

Can't help on your other issues as I don't use Messenger or MSN, but I have no trouble with Windows Live with this rom. Connects with no problems.

You need to reenter your 3G modem settings in your connections so that it knows how to connect to the network. wap.cingular and then your 7 digit phone number is hte password.

hmm.. I have seen these issues before in other posts and enouctered some myself. Pimpmyblack has a tab which will allow you to have your gprs/media net on all the time (assuming you have unlimited plan). From my experience there is a bug with live, it doesnt like to establish gprs conn if it is not alread on. I have noticed this with piscel browser too. As much as I hate doing it, my non-hack work around is to open pie and connect to google. this establishes connection w/ gprs. its not ideal, but I have exhaustedly serached for a fix to this too with no avail. hopefully that can hold u over until the geniuses figure somethin out.

Yeah it maybe something with WM6 i think and the way it allows programs to hook up to the internet. For example everytime i use my opera mini i have to first open up explorer to establish an internet connection and then i can start using opera mini. So that maybe what is required for you to do. But i would highly recommend you to just switch over to one of the newer roms that have been cooked. I was on black 3.0.1 and just had to many problems with bluetooth and connections to the internet. So i strongly recommend that buddy.

thanks for the suggestions, glad others have herd of the problem but unable to find fix.
yes. I have tried pimp my black and changed settings to internet always on.
also tried with internet connection open and then trying windows live and messenger but both problems still exist.
shame as accessing my hotmail accounts instantly is a must.
looks like will have to try your suggestion of another ron.
recommendations ?
thanks

Well it looks like This was one good thread. started good and ended good. So lets lock it up if its cool with you guys.

agree, thanks to everyone.
to sum up.
I could not find a fix to the issues I had :-{
I eventually took the advice and changed roms.
now running Custels 2.5 and everything. I mean everything is working fantastic. plus the bonus of office 2007 and live is running great.
I can only suggest black is a little buggy for myself but hey im happy with Custels 2.5
thanks to all again.
try not and leave it another 2 years before I post again lol.

question: mobile IM for wm6?

hey guys, I've recently upgraded to wm6 and found out that my mobile IM that i downloaded thru mediaNet does not work anymore. it was working fine on wm5 but i do not want to downgrade back to it. does anybody have any idea when it'll be available for wm6? i talked to an ATT rep about it and they do not know, thanks

I suggest you try Agile Mobile. Works great for me.

www.fring.com from your phone - both voice and standard IM on all networks - FREE

was looking for the same thing... tried agile messenger but it really sucks performance out the phone, i'd keep missing calls (newly formatted schaps rom too).
moved to IM+ but problem with that is that i keep getting an error on sign up that some contact is already on my list, and even if i remove it it gives the error. aside from that, its a fantastic app.
haven't tried fring, but will check it out now

Try Slick. It's a good IM program.

Oh yeah, Mundu IM is good too. It's only $11. I use it a lot. It's $8.80 right now at a holiday discount.

I have purchased both Agile and IM+
IM+ is a winner in my book and been using it since then.

don't all of these apps run by data? i like the standard mobile IM from ATT cause it uses sms. (i have a 1500 text/month plan)
but i got it to work finally.... i was using Shamanix`s Grass v2.2 rom... so i flashed the original ATT wm6 rom and it worked. for some reason i believe shamanix's rom was making the IM app try to log in thru wifi, while the ATT's connects with gprs
anybody know why?

Is there any messenger for ICQ which has a good history? Particularly, I would like to be able to import the history into Miranda on my desktop. It would be perfect if there's already a converter for Miranda but if the program only saves history as plain text files I coul surely write a converter myself...

Its not a problem with the ROM you use.
Go to "Connections"
Select "connections"
Then, "Advanced"
then, "select networks"
1. In option "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using" --- select " My work network"
2. In wireless option, don't forget to set the network cards to option "My network card connects to "The Internet"
Now, your wifi conx will be used for logging in.

WM 6.1 and Opera and 5.99 T-Zones Works!

I got Opera Mini to work with the 5.99 T-Zones plan and WM 6.1 ricky's version 23 with Opera.
I stumbled around and got it working. Had many blind alleys. Do not have the time or patience to retry the whole process with the errors removed, so I am listing all of the steps I took to get it to work.
Would be happy to clarify any steps.
1. Downloaded and ran WM 6.1 (rickys ver 23 with Opera)
2. Got the 5.99 full Internet plan working
3. Could not find anything on my DASH re Opera except an option to Install Opera. Tried it, but it did nothing
4. Went to the Opera site and found the Mini (4.1) for download. http://www.operamini.com/download/pc/htc/htc_s620/
It had 2 files one a .jad and one a .jar
Dummy me read it wrong. Thought I had to choose one or the other. Downloaded the .jar file and executed the file. Got some kind of error.
5. Decided to start all over again. Found the Java application on the list of all programs and applications and ran it. I them asked it to uninstall all. (At this point I had Opera and Opera Mini showing.)
6. Went back and downloaded the .jar and .jad files to the DASH. This time I executed the .jad file. It installed after a long time. (seems it did something with the .jar file as the .jad file is tiny).
IT WORKS -
PS - People keep claiming that the 5.99 plan does not work. In the past few months I have used it in Atlanta, NY
and Abu Dhabi. No problem.

receive emails to your inbox
go on internet with internet explorer
download files from internet
stream videos from you tube
receive weather updates
?

ive been using opera mini on my dash with the 5.99 plan for some time now. Although it is rather sporadic. Ill get a great connection and things will load very quickly then ill lose the connection and OM will just try to connect until it eventually times out.
I plan on just upgrading to the total internet plan to avoid the annoying proxies.

Im guessing this is regards to the dash in general? or atleast some of it might be about OM..
1: Yes
2: Yes
3: Yes
4: With skyfire, but the speed of the dash turns the videos to slideshows.
5: Yes

its funny to hear all this because when i first signed up for internet it was the 5.99 deal and i tried to go on the internet with no luck. Then again i think i read somewhere it only works with WM6.1

This has worked since on WM 5 6 and now 6.1. Once in awhile I can't connect. I usually reboot or remove some running programs. Most of the time it works just fine.
I had problems in the beginning getting it to work. I deceided to following the instructions, letter for letter space for space and then it worked

Works great for me and I love it, haha why cause its only 5.99 lol.

Configure T-mobile Data plan $9.99

Hi everyone!
I wanted to know how to configure my HTC S620 Phone with WM 6.5 to use the $9.99 data plan and NOT the Smart Phone Data Plan.
I wont use it to surf the internet, ONLY FOR EMAILS. I feel like I will be paying way too much for the Smart phone data plan.
Can any one confirm that the $9.99 plan works? If so what configurations did you do?
Thanks for reading and hope to find answers!

I would also like to know the answer to this question, as before I switched to a Dash, I had the web service that is listed as T-mobileWeb service. With the 6.5 WM 3vo rom, I have no problem loading the internet. But when I switch to Kavana's rom, I can send and receive text and calls, but have problems with accessing the internet, and it refuses to load. Am I doing something, or are these two roms actually set up to recieve data differently?
Also on a side note, I would prefer to use Kavana's so if anyone can shed some light on what settings I need to change so that my internet begins to function again, I would highly appreciate it, and I believe it would answer both of our questions.
Thanks, and sorry for posting in this manner, but I figured instead of starting a new thread, I'd just add it here while it was posted.

I thought that you had to have had the 9.99 plan......
Didn't T-Mobile get rid of new people getting onto it?

"Tzones Proxy Hack"
on another website they have instructions for it but in your profile i left you a message with the link. i've used this method for a while with no issues but its not my own thought up solution so take it for what its worth.

WM6.5 Instant Messanging & WiFi

At present I do not have cellular data connect, only WiFi. Will WM6.5 Instant Messaging work on WiFi or do I need the Cell connect? At present I cannot get it to work.

Use a different IM client. IM plus is popular, as is Palringo for WM. Either one of those can connect to multiple chat clients over wifi. The stock one from the AT&T ROM is meant to connect over cellular data. This is most likely so that you have to buy their data plan.

I figured as much, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks for confirming
I have tried Palringo but didn't like it. Wanted something more simplistic. Hence Im using BeeJive for WM 6.5. I like it though once in a blue moon it freezes, prompting a soft reset. Its a beta and presently has been abandoned. Too bad, its a sweet little program, just needed a bit more time.
