Network Login Problem - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I've been having a weird problem lately on my Tilt 2 AT&T device. On boot, a "Logon to Server" window will pop up saying "Network Log On". Below it the following:
Resource: MEdia Net
User name: [email protected]
Password: ____________
Domain: ______________
And an unchecked "Save Password" selection
This came out of nowhere it seems. I'll also every once in awhile will get the 3G Icon on the top bar acting like it's trying to connect...instead of the usual 3-4 bars itll say "3G" with 2 arrows beneath it...one going left, one going right.
When I try to access an application that uses the network...say...Marketplace...I'll get a "Can't Access/Dial Network" grey bubble that pops up on the screen...Even when I "Dismiss" the bubble..it'll constantly pop back up. I also noticed in my TouchFlo settings area...the option to turn on and off the network will be on...then it'll flip off...then it'll flip on...like it's confused whether or not to connect.
It's weird...because it won't always do it...but majority of the time it will. I'll still get text messages and the marketplace and apps will work perfectly sometimes, then other times I'll get all this crap and will be forced to restart the device...
ANY IDEAS?

Me too!
I don't know what happened either, but it sure is annoying. I have the EXACT same problem. However, I think I may have caused it. I was tinkering with the advanced configuration tool and BsB Tweaks.
Does anyone who uses these two programs know which setting might be causing this? MediaNet Login Page opens when you reboot the phone.
Thanks!

I think I found the Fix
Sorry, I initially provided what I thought was a fix for this, but after several more tests the problem still exists periodically.

MMS died... again

I have an issue where I lose the ability to download my MMS, which are usually just photo messages. I have tried the help from ATT's site where you configure the settings for it to no avail. I was able to get it back by re-flashing and now it had died again.
The symptom, specifically, is that the message will simply never download. I get it, hit download, it goes back to the list and never downloads. If I open the message again the download button is greyed out. I have gotten an "unable to download..." something message but I can't remember the specific text and don't want to mislead anyone. When I see that specific text again I will update the thread so anyone searching for the error message (which I've done) will be able to find the solution that will hopefully arise in this thread.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I am using the latest Schaps (1 wk old) but it happened with a previous Schaps as well. I honestly can't remember if I've changed something that would have affected it but it's not unlikely as I've been tweaking my phone for the past two weeks since reflashing, but only user settings and not really connection stuff.
And I found a fix by following this thread.
Although the symptoms were not the same it worked like a charm.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2105385&postcount=5
If something happens to the post, I will quote VOL22002:
"By the way for anyone else who is still having issues with MMS all you have to do is install the (Arcsoft_MMS_4281.)cab and rerun the Connection setup on your pda that is localed in start/setting/connections and your all set."

Can't read text messages on Dash 6.1 - Only Header

I searched all the forums about this issue but all I can find is things dealing with setting up text messaging. I have no network problems with data, text, or voice I just used the HTC network wizard.
Whenever I get a text message I can see the the beginning of the text in the selection screen but when I click on it the message is blank? So I can't read the whole text. I searched this Forum but couldn't find any people with similar problems. It seems to send them fine I just can't read the whole message for some strange reason. I have been clearing my memory and then flashing my Tmob Dash for the last three Kavana releases, they all exhibit this behavior. Any help appreciated with my problem.
What Rom are you using?

Kavana 080408. The texts that I get show up on the main screen with a little bit of the text but when I click on them they don't show anything. I tried pressing all the buttons I can but it doesn't seem to do anything.
See is UNthreading them helps.
Uhm, just a silly guess here, but next time you're on the blank screen, click menu (right softkey) > 5 (Folders) > change to inbox, at least if it's not on inbox already. My friend changed his to sent and couldn't figure out why he couldn't see new ones either hehe
I looked everywhere in the messaging app and also the regular phone settings I don't see anything for unthreading. Also MMS can be viewed and sent normally. Just whenever I try to send or read a recieved text I have problems. When I try to send a text it doesn't let me type anything in at all. Not recipient and not the body of the text.
No I have already gone to all the folders. The inbox folder is where I can see the messages. You can read the begining of them, and who it is from but when you select one it doesn't show anything.
I had the same issue before, the problem disappeared after I uninstalled CE-Star (Chinese-reading problem).. do you have it installed?

Check in Accessibility Folder for unthreading.
DON'T Turn off the Damn active x
I finally fixed this problem.
I had a problem with WM 6.1 will only showing the headers and not allowing you to read the contents of : Text messages, Emails, MMS. This errors would also not allow you to write emails or text messages.
I thought Kavana's ROM had some big error with it but no one else was complaining. I downloaded Ricky's rom but same problem. So this weeked I fooled around with my phone believing it was some program I was installing. Even though I only install Google Maps, TCPMP, YGo, and Windows Live. I would install something then restart. I tried installing them one by one then it seemed to work but still after a time was becoming broken. I thought it had something to do with synching corrupted contact data. So I didn't synch but after a while it still came back.
This morning I finally realized that if you turn off active x it breaks the email and text which I assume both use IE active x The bad setting is.....
Main Settings Menu->IE Settings->Advanced Options -> NEVER TURN OFF ACTIVE X CONTROLS.
I think if Kavana, my personal hero, rolls another ROM you should take out this option.

I am glad to hear that you fixed and resolved your problem, and haha I hope that Kavana makes another Rom, he is awesome. But then again I got to thank Ricky for this rom to I love it.
hello i am having the exact same problem i checked all advice given i.e. make sure it is on inbox folder, check ie active x is enabled, and no change.
any advice
also when u do see the message headers like yianaki but when you select the message and then press a soft key it says"message cannot be signed and/or encrypted"
You need an encryption key for your email and you don't have it on your dash email, maybe. Just a guess. Is there documentation as to what you need to set up your email. What steps did you need to take to get your email on your home computer.
i actually have kavana 6.1 version 080408 so i just used the connection setup for US tmobile. and it was working previous to this problem. i did a hard reset now and its back to normal for now
SWEEEET!
Thanks "Y" you saved my life, I had the same problem. Keep Active x controllers checkmarked "On".
change IE option.
I had the same problem only can view the header of a msg, but can
t see the content. Here is what I did to solve it: go to IE\tools\option\general\encoding\change to Unicode
Cant Open Text Message.
Hi, I'm from Jamaica, I bought my HTC S621 from Digicel Jamaica [here]. I followed the instructions and installed WM6.1 80408 Kavana and it was totally amazing, I did it on Saturday and it worked great, everything was working GREAT. On Sunday I realized I was unable to open my text messages for viewing. When I click Text Message, the colour wheel shows and it starts to open then it closes. I did all the suggested this in this thread but nothing works, any more suggestions please, I really need to send text messages to my work crew and this is a major hindrance. I dont know how to soft or hard reset and would like to try that first, any other suggestion would be great. Thanks.
PLEASE dont laugh or throw tomatoes, I fixed it. In my attempt to load a Yahoo messenger app I installed an SMS application that was causing the issue. Problem solved, sorry to be a bother.

Just wanted to voice my agreement with Yianaki about "Never turn off Active X controls". The whole issue lies in the fact that the text messaging app is basically an Active X control. But I wanted to add the reminder that you need to make sure that the "Text Messages" app gets closed then reopened after you make the change, or it will not appear to work. (Use the task manager/celetask to close it)
I had the exact same problems with text messages: I could send an MMS, receive an SMS, but not send an SMS. When a text message came in, it showed up in the list as expected, but an attempt to view it resulted in a blank area with no useful menu options. I also couldn't send text (SMS) messages out because the create-new-SMS screen was blank and non-functional. It has nothing to do with the threaded vs unthreaded Accessibility settings for the phone, nor do you need to worry about configuring your WAP settings (GPRS and MMSC Settings); the "Connection Setup" app takes care of everything for T-Mobile perfectly. It's all an Active X issue.
PS: This is all on Ricky's v24 "Vanilla" ROM of WinMo 6.1 running on a T-Mobile Dash.

Problems with Outlook & You Tube

I have now had my TP2 for nearly a week and I am generally very pleased. However, there are a couple of problems that may be me or may be the phone that I have not in my ignorance been able to resolve.
Firstly with the calendar, if I enter a new appointment with specific times it shows on the home page and in the month and day display. If I make it an all day appointment of a reoccurring appointment it is not displayed and I have to disable Touchflo to get into the full calendar to find the appointment. This means the only way I am able to see appointments entered is if each is entered daily with specific times. Pretty useless if I have weekly appointments for the year (I would have to enter individually 52 times) or all day appointments / reminders.
Secondly, the You Tube application comes up with an “Unable to find a network” error message when ever I try to run it. I have no trouble with PIE, Opera, e-mail etc, only you Tube. (If I go to You Tube in PIE or Opera all is fine, it is just the You Tube application causing problems.
I have searched but have not found any postings that seem to answer these problems. Any help is gratefully received.
The Phone has an unlocked HTC standard rom on TMobile UK.
Many thanks
KJR
Update
I spent my lunch resetting and then hard resetting and seem to have calendar working properly. I backed up and restored and it still works OK, which is odd (but pleasing) as I would have thought I would be restoring what ever the problem was.
I still cannot get the You Tube applet to work and can find no setting that would allow me to alter how it finds the network.

You might have the proxy server setting active in advanced network settings, just remove the tick box if you do

Yes, that is necessary.
Also, with T-Mobile UK, you have to ensure their 'content lock' feature is disabled before the Youtube app will work. New T-Mobile accounts have content lock enabled by default (to protect minors from certain 'entertainment' sites). To remove the lock, you can either log into your T-mobile account online and follow the 'Phone settings' link, or call customer services and get them to do it.
Thanks
I checked proxy settings and they are disabled. It is not a major problem, just an annoying niggle as I can access You Tube via PIE etc. but it seems odd that the applet deesigned especially for the job doesn't work!
I had Youtube working out the box on T-Mob but couldnt get the facebook app or Microsoft MyPhone to connect.
I ended up setting up a second data connection with the settings:
general.t-mobile.uk
user
pass
And everything else left blank and on Auto and they then connected ok. Give that a shot and see if it helps.
I had the same youtube problem. It seems to be solved now, what I did was connect via wifi (which worked fine) and when I turned wifi off and connected over the air it worked.

Touch Pro 2 - e-mails do not work

Hello all!
I recieved a brand new HTC Touch Pro 2 today, and was very excited to have finally got it! However, since getting it - 12 hours ago - I have been trying and failing to set up the e-mail side of things. I use both a normal googlemail account, a POP account through outlook, and three accounts that use google aps (mail) as a host. I have followed this to the 't':
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886
But still no joy on any of the accounts except the bog standard '@[email protected] account. The phone keeps asking for my password, which I know is correct.
Anyone else have the same problems/have any ideas how to resolve this? Before I throw it against the wall! :-(
Hi
I'm having the exact same problem getting my hotmail account to work. I have a vodafone uk branded phone which I bought on eay but I'm using an O2 sim. I've managed to get everything else working but not the email. It's very depressing. It was dead easy on my trusty Xperia.
Thanks for any help...
e-mails not forwarding
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I don't know if this will help, but for your username try putting "username"@gmail.com instead of just your username. That is what I've had to do in the past and it works fine.
My issue at the moment is i have entered all the details correctly but when i try to do a send receive it says "error synchronising" and then popups up a box which says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tab settings". Which i have no clue about because its taking me into all the TMobile data connection stuff.
I get this no matter what connection i setup. But the strange thing is when i very first did it, it worked. Every time since then has failed though.
Tried calling T-Mobile or HTC? I don't know if they could help you.
Mine is working with IMAP gmail

Two things I found.
1. Go to Settings, All Settings, Connections Tab, Connections Icon, Advanced, Select Networks. Top box should be set to T-Mobile Internet.
2. Press Edit (Just under the top drop-down), Proxy Settings. I found the default ROM (UK) was set to 149.254.201.132 - not sure if this is a hard coded ROM error, or a Network wizard setup error - either way, untick the "This network uses a proxy server...."
If this was ticked, all should be OK now.
If not, then do call T-Mobile Tech Support.
Good luck !
I had the same problem on my TP2, unbranded byon T-Mobile. Unticking the "This network uses a proxy server" box solved the problem. I had the same problem with my old TyTn2 as well.
Remenber, if you hard reset you will probably have to do this again!! Hopefully this will solve your problem.
I had the same problem with the exact same error message on my 1and1 email account. I found that when usines imap 1and1 block port 25 (to prevent spam) so when setting up the outgoing server address I had to specify another port (got that from 1and1's FAQ's where its buried and simply says that sometimes port 25 is blocked and if it is try using port xxx (can't remember which one). Anyway that worked straight away for me. Unfortunatley Winmob's error messages are pretty useless so good luck in isolating why the problem has occurred - took me two days to work it out.

Not receiving images via sms

I am able to text images to people and they get them with issues. If anybody sends me one it didn't come thru. There is a link that says download and I get a busy cursor and it never downloads. I have tried clearing the cache and clearing the data for the stock messages app. I have tried using Google messages and the same thing happens. Any ideas how to fix this?

Did you check your APN settings and make sure they are right?
Check the APN setting for your carrier, I've had same problem in the past and it was always a problem with the APN setting.
It was working fine until Friday. I will check the apn and see though
It was working fine until Friday and didn't make any apn changes. I just looked and the settings all are what they should be. Sorry for the double pay. My app didn't refresh properly

Are you using a custom DNS entry or some sort of DNS changer? This can and does on occasion break MMS capabilities. I have had this problem and by disabling the custom entry (or app) MMS returns to normal.
Did you do anything or make any changes to or with the phone at all prior to MMS not working?
You could also contact your provider and see if they have any seevice problems or issues. It is possible that there maybe a problem on the providers end.. either provisioning, account setting or something else.
They also may need to refresh the device on the network, sometimes when things like that happened to me this usually solved it.
Two other things you can try and/or check.
If your roaming or not. Depending on the provider and plan you might not be able to send mms while roaming. Either they do not offer data use while roaming, or else a data limit is in use (and you hit that limit).
Try resetting the network settings. On your phone it would be under settings > General Management > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will rest all the network settings back to default. Only draw back to this is any saved bluetooth devices and WIFI access points will be lost, so you will have to enter them in again.
I had an issue with mms once too and no matter what i did it wouldnt correct itself. Even factory reset. I changed the sim card to a new one and it worked. Dont know why but it worked. If you have an extra one try that.
I had the same exact issue! It started around Oct. 11th. I didn't even know that I was missing images from friends...they thought I was ignoring their texts. This problem was driving me nuts. I had been searching everywhere for answers and can't believe you described the same exact problem.
I'm on an Unlocked N10+ & I flashed the ATT firmware months ago and thought this might have something to do with it. I never owned an Unlocked phone before. Turns out that it was my own user error -->
I hadn't changed any of the APN settings. I was using Pulse SMS, tried Google Android Messages then the stock SMS app. No luck. I reset the network settings around 4 times. I thought this was the fix because it seemed to work for awhile but only with the stock messaging app. New images came in at first & I could only retrieve those older missing photos for the current day. The missing images were all listed as Unknown Caller. Later on in the day, I wasn't receiving images again...in any SMS app.
I was going to restore/reset my phone today but before that I started backing items up and checked my backed up SMS messages and the 2 recent ones said Oct. 31st!!!. WTH!?!
I then went into my Date/Time settings, I toggled the switch on and off again for the Automatic Date and Time. Re-selected my Time Zone and made sure that the Date and Time were accurate. They weren't...
I'm sure that this is where I screwed everything up because I had set my date (a couple of times in the past few weeks) ahead 5 days to see if I'd get the latest software/firmware update. I forgot to switch something back to my usual (and accurate) date & time setting which includes setting my time zone.
So far, this process seemed to work. I'm once again getting SMS/MMS images and videos within Pulse SMS.
