Kavana ROM proxy settings: new-inet / new-corp ?

I asked this n another thread, but no joy.
I installed the latest Kavana ROM, works GREAT. Thanks for that.
But, some questions.
I'd like to understand how all the networks and proxy things work.
I understand how proxy servers work for the PC world, but I don't understand all the various connections and proxies on the smartphone.
I'm on T-mobile, and I used the connection wizard. But then MMS and SMS weren't working quite right, so I applied some other settings from some other posts and right now, it all (IE, SMS, MMS) seems to work.
But, I am not at all confident I could reproduce this if I had to flatten the device again. Is there something I can read to understand the relative significance of all the various named networks: "work" "TMobile MMS" "Tmobile Data" "WAP Network" "Secure WAP Network" and "The Internet" and also the various proxies that route to these various networks?
Do I really need all the connections - I have like 7 of them.
The new-inet:1118 proxy - what is that for?
That hostname, is it really meaningful?
I also have a new-corp:1159 proxy,
with a name of HTTP:{3F31657F... (etc etc guid)}
What is THAT thing for?
I'd feel better if I understood all these settings, when and why I need a proxy. etc etc . thanks for pointers.

Anyone know?
Anyone know the answer to this? anyone have any clues to offer me?

I'm also having trouble w/ the MMS after installing Ricky's ROM. Are you able to pull the MMS settings from your phone and share? Otherwise, does anyone else know all of the settings?

These cryptic settings come from active sync. I see them if I allow my DASH to sync with my office Windows XP machine with networking enabled. and my office trys to use the network my Dash is on. Once these entries are created, I can not use my t-mo net connection (cheap version). But it is all fine, once I delete these unknown entries.

My MMS Settings
Here's what I did to get MMS to work, in and out.
I am using Kavana 1.33 ROM.
1. set up 2 connections:
Start...Settings....Connections....GPRS
Now, either add a New item, or edit an existing one.
Description: T-Mo Web or T-Mo Data or something else similarly descriptive
Connects to: The Internet
Access point: internet2.voicestream.com
Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Authentication Type: None
Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0
Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0
IP Address: <blank>
Done
[the above gets you a connection to the Internet ]
Again, either add a New item, or edit an existing one.
Name: T-Mo WAP or T-Mo MMS or something descriptive
Connects To: WAP Network
Access Point: wap.voicestream.net
[everything else as above]
Done
[the above gets you a connection to the T-mobile WAP network]
Done
[you are in Settings...Connections, now.]
2. set up one proxy
Scroll to "Proxy"
[this is also reachable directly from home screen via: Start...Settings....Connections....Proxy]
New.... or Edit an existing (your preference)
Name: Tmo WAP->Internet
Connects from: Wap Network
Connects To: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP
Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Done
[the above sets up a proxy connection for your SMS/MMS]
Done
[you are in Settings...Connections, now.]
3. Set up SMS preferences
Scroll to "SMS Service"
[this is also reachable directly from home screen via: Start...Settings....Connections....SMS Service]
SMS over: GPRS Preferred
Done
[your are now back in Settings...Connections]
Pess the red "call end" button.
[you are now back on the home screen]
4. Set up MMS on the device:
Start...Messaging
scroll to MMS
Menu...Settings...
Menu (again)
MMSC Settings
Menu...New or Menu....Edit (your pleasure).
[the settings for this MMSC thing should be:]
Name: whatever you like, I used "Picture Messaging"
MMSC URL: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
WAP Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Connect Via: WAP Network
Max. Sending Size: 300k (or whatever you prefer)
WAP version: WAP 2.0
Done
Done
Done
HOME
5. set up IE
Start...Internet Explorer
Menu...Tools...Options...Connections
Automatically Detect Settings - This works either way for me, checked or unchecked
Select network: The Internet.
Done
Done
----
All of the above allows me to send out SMS and MMS messages, and receive in such messages, as welll as surf the internet from IE.
I have the $19.99/month T-Mobile internet plan in the USA.
If you have the $5.99 T-zones plan, then I think your settings may be different.
Search elsewhere for that.

ActiveSync creates new-inet and new-corp proxies?

Are you sure? Are you sure those things come from ActiveSync and are not just in the Kavana ROM? I use Windows Vista, and the Windows Mobile Device Center, which is the replacement for Activesync. I have never used WinXP and ActiveSync (on the PC) with this device, but I did have those weird entries. I don't see those odd proxy entries get recreated when I sync with Vista+WMDC.
I assuming that the odd proxy entries that reference "new-corp" and "new-inet", were just "in" the ROM by default. Or maybe they were set up when I ran the Internet Connection Wizard which is in the ROM. I don't know for sure. This is why I am asking you, ARE YOU SURE that those entries come from ActiveSync?
Do they return *every time* you sync?
In any case, lacking any real response from the board, I removed the proxy entries from my device, and for me at least, everything still works - SMS, MMS, Internet, etc.
I hate the fact that this still feels so mysterious.
-Cheeso

Damn. I put in all of these settings exactly as shown and still get an "Error Synchronizing" message when I try and send/receive MMS messages. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on T-Mobile, $20 plan w/ Ricky's 6.1.

But real problem is that it seems that you can not be on internet and send a mms. You need to disconnect send mms and reconnect to internet.
Looking for solution this is anoying.

Ok, I'm going to bump this as I have the exact same problem on o2.
I've been trying to send an MMS all day, read this and turned off the internet, sent the message and turned internet back on.
What a bug! Anyone got any ideas why its doing this or can anyone actually send an MMS while connected to the mobile internet?
Let us know and if its not really a bug, we don't need to report it to HTC
edit-- Looks like I can't receive MMS when connected to internet either.
Anyone else having this issue?

MOD - Can you also move this to Q&A, it doesn't need to be in Development forum.

Ok, Feel like I'm spamming this thread, but hey ho!
Got mine to work. It now swithches off the mobile data, receives/sends the MMS and then enables mobile data. I had to change the APN settings fro my mobile web to include the Wap details, so replacing the APN, username, mmsc settings etc.
Everything apart from Type, leave that as default.
Save, restart phone, worked for me.

Just posted the following on the Modaco ROM thread:
I'm on Modaco 2.0, and although I seldom use MMS, I did try sending a picture message whilst listening to some music streaming from Spotify, and connected to the internet via HSDPA. It all worked fine.
I do notice that I've a separate APN for picture messaging, so I wonder if it is APN "sharing" issue?

Regards,
Dave

Been struggling with the combination of both today and this worked for me...
for internet access : you have to type default in apn type
for mms : apn type = mms
I'm also using the modaco rom...

I can confirm that my "Picture Message" APN has an APN type of MMS, whereas my "T-Mobile UK" APN (for general internet use) does not have an APN type ("Not set").
Regards,
Dave

Mine had an APN setting for MMS of "mms" and an APN setting for Internet as "default"
Wouldn't send or receive though until I did the update.
Gonna inform HTC, would be grateful if anyone else having the issue could also do it.

Wow, that fixed my problem as well on Vodafone CZ. Thanks ! I was just thinking of extracting the stock rom backup to find out the original apn settings
Btw where is it stored ? There are some files in /etc and /system that have example apn settings, but no actual data. According to short google search it is some kind of internal db.

o2 mms settings?

Hi All,
I'm having trouble with the mms settings on my Desire...(3g works fine) I've put in the following settings that I found online somewhere but it doesn't work (won't send mms). I'm on o2 simplicity 20 tariff.
Name: o2 MMS Postpay
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
Proxy: (not set)
Port: (not set)
Username: o2wap
Password: password

MCC: 234
MNC:10
Authentician type: Not set
APN Type: not set
Does anyone on o2 have different settings that work? Or let me know what I'm doing wrong?...thanks!

Try these settings, they should hopefully work: http://forum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=144262#144262

I am on the same tariff and my MMS works perfectly ..... apart from the resizing issue.
My details are the same as yours apart from :
Server : Not Set
and
APN Type : mms
I also have another APN called O2 MOBILE WEB with these settings :

Thanks Mastoid!
Yep the that's the link I got my original settings from...
I'll try out the small changes hot-fuzz recommended too...checked my other APN setting and they were the same.
Don't know where I'm going wrong...I can receive them ok...just trying to send them takes forever and it never gets sent.
Just switching off the phone now...will see if it works and report back...
EDIT: (stupid) question...but do i need to have 3g on for mms to work? Never had to on my other (non-smart) phones but thought these might be different...

Yes, 3G/GPS/EDGE is needed, that's the cellular connection
Do you have 3G in your area?
SMS uses a small data channel on the GSM protocol. This data channel is used to transmit information about the network (like the name, signal, type, etc) and for example connect calls. It was also realised it could be used to send small messages, then SMS was born.
Now, MMS is entirely different. When you get an MMS what actually happens is that you get a special type of SMS that tells your phone that it needs to connect to a server to download a MMS message. Doing so means it opens a data connection through GPRS, EDGE, 3G, HDSPA, or whatever data connection channel is available.

Just to add to this. You dont need to have it ON, you just need to have it available.
I have Mobile Network turned off at home and 3G automatically turns on for the purpose of sending an MMS.

Thanks again for the helpful advice! Seems like I hav to manually turn on 3g for it to send. Will wait and see if the recipient responds...

...still no good, can't send mms settings are exactly as suggested above. Hopefully once o2 release the desire it might help...

found this over on the AV Forums, it's for htc magic but some guy replied that the settings also work with the desire.

Right after far too much messing around I have managed to get the settings to work!!!
This guide is based on a HTC Magic that has been unlocked and rooted and is now running a O2 SIM card.
You will need to set up 2 x APNs on the handset.
First one is for your mobile internet. Remember that if you do not have the unlimited web bolt on then this will start to get very expensive for you! You need to enter this information in. If there is nothing written for a paticular field then just leave it blank.
Mobile Web:
Name: o2
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: web
Password: web
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
MMS:
Name: MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
Username: o2wap
Password: password
Server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
MMSC: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
MMS Proxy: 193.113.200.195
MMS Port: 8080
MCC: 243
MNC: 10
Now once these two seperate APN's have been entered and you have made sure you saved them you should see a grey circle next to each one. Click on the MMS circle and it should now have a green light inside it.
Re-Boot the handset.
You should now have mobile internet and MMS capabilities
Just remember that these are the settings that worked for me on my HTC Magic unlocked and used with a O2 SIMplicity card with a unlimited web bolt on. Make sure you have a data package otherwise your phone bills will be massive! If in doubt check with O2 to make sure your not being charged for the data etc. I cannot be held responsible!

from this it looks like your MCC is wrong should 243 not 234.

I just found those settings on avforums thanks, tried resetting the MCC to 243 and clicked save...but the whole APN was removed/deleted so had to reset it back up using 234 as standard.
Just wanna make sure - is it 234 or 243 that I should be using?

Just wanted to say thanks for the settings!
Was trying to figure this out & found the info very useful
Bloody lack of o2 support lol

I had issues with mms/3g settings on o2 today - called up o2 and they said they had issues last night/today
this is now working ok from about 1pm for me
i'm using wap.o2.co.uk / proxy: 193.113.200.195:8080 and working ok
mobile.o2.co.uk worked for 3g but not for mms it seemed...
http://status.o2.co.uk/ <- saw that in another post - very useful

any help appreciated

i managed to buy a desire the day they came out,but unfortunatly it was locked to tmobile.i managed to get it unlocked via htcode,but have not managed to either go on the internet or send mms messages with o2.i have looked through various answers to the question of settings for the desire and some people have said that they have managed to use it successfully.i have tried adding a new apn with the various settings found among these pages but now wonder if tmobile hide a default apn within their software that i cannot see to delete. any help please!

What do you see when you go to:
Menu - Settings - Wireless & Networks - Mobile Networks - Access Point Names
There should be a list of APNs - if so, list them here.
One of them should have a green dot to the right of it - which one?
Zippyioa

originally there were none.now there are 2 both of which i have created o2 uk mms and o2 mobile web (the green dot)

Ok that's a great start....
If you go back to: menu - settings - wireless networks check that Mobile Network is ticked. If it is what does it say below it?

turning on it constantly says that,sometimes connection failed

Can you untick mobile network? If so, try it, wait, then tick it again and see if it connects....
If not your APN settings may be wrong, so go into Mobile Networks - Access Point Names and click on the one for the internet settings.
List them here so I can check they are right.
Also, has this O2 SIM worked on the internet before? If not you may need to call O2 for them to enable it

the sim worked fine on an n95.unticking and reticking makes no difference.the settings i have are as follows
name o2 mobile web
apn mobile.o2.co.uk
proxy not set
port not set
username o2 web
password password

Ok, they all look ok except one thing. Try editing the username - change it from o2 web to mobileweb and make sure you save changes!
See if that works.
Zippyioa

changed,saved,rebooted nothing,still says turning on under mobile networks

That's no good....
OK, just to make sure we have this right, delete ALL the current settings in the APN menu, then reboot the phone with the O2 SIM in it - this might pick up the settings you need.
If it doesn't, go here: http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html and use the GPRS settings for O2 to add the APN. Once done, save, then reboot and see if that works.
I assume this is a contract SIM, not pay as you go? From memory o2 PAYG wasnt setup for internet in the same way....

yes yes yes i was begining to think i would never see the internet on this phone.i can only say thank you.i went to the site you suggested and entered the settings provided and as if by magic!!!!
thanks again

Persistence always pays off in the end.
Glad its sorted now, enjoy mobile intetnet!

Please someone solve my mms problem!

Hi all, I am literally tearing my hair out over this! My Desire HD seems to refuse to receive picture messages, it says downloading then fails.
I am on Orange,have spoke to Orange and have input all the settings they told me to, I can send mms, but seems to have a serious problem receiving them.
Annoying thing is when I was on the phone to Orange they sent me an mms and it worked, come off the phone, my sister tries to mms me and download fails!
Please, has anyone else encountered this? Thanks

Hi & welcome to XDA
Before heading for a straight factory reset, have you been able to send any MMS messages? Is it just pictures you struggle to send & receive?
I am also on Orange, these are my MMS APN settings.

Select APN type, enter mms and tap OK.
Press the Menu key and select Save
I have just changed them to yours and still no joy :-(
Yes it is just mms I have a problem with, everything else is fine!
And as said I can send them, but not receive!

Two things I can think of...
1. Is Mobile network enabled all time (there is an option in the Mobile network setting page for that)
2. Sometimes for some stupid reason if you are connected to WiFi, the 3g connection will be turned off in Android (to save battery). Try turning off WiFi and see if downloading MMS is successful.

+1. Picture messaging only works with a 3g connection, not wifi.
