wm 6.1 and the uk

ive lost a weekend messing around with these different roms and although they look and run realy nice, untill one of you genius's make a rom for the tmobile mda mail im going to have to go back to my [email protected] tmobile 6.0 rom.
issues with email trying to use wifi, when these phones have no wifi!
issues with keypad mapping
and even after messing with settings and trying various cab files still no mms working.
there must be a uk guru out there??

Which ROMS have you tried?
I do not think I am understanding what you are saying. The T-mobile Dash/Excalibur has wifi, and wifi works in all of the ROMS i have tried including the stock t-mobile one.
You may have to configure some options in regard to internet/data and mms. Have you done any configuration under the Settings -> Connections -> GPRS menu? Each time you flash your phone, you have to reconfigure these settings.
Anyhow, I am not sure what you mean by the "tmobile mda mail." If this is a completely different device then the T-mobile Dash/Excalibur, then you have posted in the wrong forum; and I am surprised any of the ROMs on this forum even installed in the first place!

ive tried kavana 080307 and 080308.
tmobile mda mail has NO wifi! its like the dash in every way except this. tmobile uk must be tight wads.
subsequently email tries with gprs for a few seconds then goes to try wifi (get double arrow symbol in top right) then unsupprisingly no email.
i have configured gprs and internet explorer works (quite well infact).

That is bizzare. Is it possible to cook a ROM without wifi drivers? Sombody in the 6.1 thread said that they got their wing to work with it, perhaps they just dont use it for e-mail then. Do any of the other roms work with email? It would be a shame to have to downgrade to the stock tmobile ROM.

tell me about it, i can live without mms but not without email

If you need help installing, just give me a shout It can be a real pain for the first time without the nice wizard that comes with the new 6.1 ROMs.

Internet now working on Sprint Touch w/new ROM

I hope starting a new thread is the way to go on this...
I just updated to the new Sprint Official WM 6.1 ROM, and immediately could not connect to the internet.
I tried running the IOTA automatic data provisioning update (Start->Settings->Personal Tab->Phone->Services Tab->Internet->Get Settings->Start) and it failed repeatedly with a 1012 error. As was posted by others, I noticed that there was a "CurrentUserName" setting in Start->Settings->System->Device Information that had [email protected] where I would have expected to see [email protected] instead. (that would have been my Sprint provided email address) The first thing I tried was to go to the phone dialpad and dial ##3282# to start the EPST program and check my data provisioning settings (this requires that you know your MSL - Master Service Lock Code - if you are going to edit). UserName was blank there, so I tapped the blank setting and held down until an "EDIT" menu popped up. I tapped "EDIT" and changed it to the previously correct [email protected] value. After saving changes and another reboot, I still could not connect to the internet, run IOTA, and the "CurrentUserName" was still wrong. After searching through various settings looking for a way to change the currentusername, I installed PHM Registry Editor and searched again.
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/DIM there is a key "EnableCurrentUserName" and it was set to 1. I edited that and set it to 0, exited the Registry Editor, and restarted the device by holding the power button until it warned me about shutting down. I tapped "Yes" and it shut down and restarted. The "CurrentUserName" setting no longer appeared in the Device Information page. At this point I was able to run IOTA successfully and imediately after that I could use the internet and other data services.
I hope this helps someone. Sorry to be so long winded, but I was trying to answer as many "How? Where?" questions as I could as I went.
Briefly:
1. Using WM Registry Editor software, change HKLM/Software/OEM/DIM/"EnableCurrentUserName" from 1 to 0 then save changes and exit editor.
2. Dial ##3282# and edit UserName to correct [email protected] address. Device will reboot when you exit and save changes.
3. Run IOTA by going to Start->Settings->Personal Tab->Phone->Services Tab->Internet->Get Settings->Start
Thanks to all the others here who have helped me along the way,

anyone else know if this works?
i just flashed the new sprint rom and now the data connection does not work.. no internet.. ? I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem and does this fix it?

After some more time with this ROM installed I have found that it is not neccessary to change the ##DATA# (##3282#) user name settings. Just change the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/DIM/EnableCurrentUserName value to zero, save changes and then you can run the IOTA update successfully (or at least I can).
I have found that I need to do this every time I do a hard reset of my device. I hope this helps someone else.

this did not work for me.. I Get error code 67
i started a new thread here........ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415666
so maybe someone will chime in... the ##3282# does not work for me at all.. you hit that on the dial pad and nothing happens... so i can not access that menu...
For now i went back to a OEM rom and called sprint and they got me working by doing a MASTER RESET... also ##3282# works on OEM roms but i think the file EPST.EXE is missing from the CUSTOM roms... any input would be great..

Not working for me.
i'm sure a master reset from within #778 or whatever would work but i don't feel like
putting in the data again.

I just upgraded to NFSFAN's latest ROM, everything went well but I can not get my internet to work. The one thing I did notice is under the services tab, internet is not an option. I loaded the dcd sprint carrier 20090714 cab am I missing something else?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Update:
Well I went back and flashed to the HTC 6.1 rom, then back to the 6.5 rom. That fixed my internet issues, but that option is still missing for me. Then after all of that my MSID was really screwed up. Everything seems to be good now.

please please help me clear the instructions
i have a horribly vague idea of what i need to do, to get the internet working again.
i already got the IOTA_1120 zip file in my cell but when i even try to open it up it says that there is no application that is related to to it, so i must start this application and open up the file from within. How do i do this? am I even doing what im supposed to??
Where exactly is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/DIM and how do i get there???
if you could please instruct me with simple stieps i would greatly appreciate it, simple being like start>program files> etc.
please help i am one step away from smashing this damm cell into the wall

The path of HKEY.... is actually on the registry. You need to use a registry editor (like PHM Regedit) to make the necessary changes to the registry. I would recommend you to re-read those instructions as they will not get any easier than that. Alternatively, if you are on Sprint's official rom and have absolutely no clue what you are doing, you can always call them and ask them for help.
As far as the IOTA zip file, if you cannot open it, that means that you do not have any program to extract from compressed files in your device. Your best bet is to transfer the file to the desktop and extract it there. Once you are done, place the extracted contents back in the device and run it in there.

Please help - Weird problem with Samsung i780

3. in admin studio, choose no. 2. PRECONFIGURATION

6. Choose your preferred connection
7. Press Ok
8. Press Ok in confirmation dialog and i780 will hard reset
9. Check your internet connection. I hope it's successfull

Thanks a lot for that, seems to take me somewhere where i choose. Unfortunately my provider is not in there. Any chance to add it?

[INFO]What to do when you cannot access 3G

I had a problem accessing 3G when installing a new rom. After flashing a few roms and finding out that roms were not the issue, as well as applying a few radio updates and changing radios and a google on the internet, I found out what was the problem. The access point was not set up. Defrost's rom based on cyanogen mod had the massive APN List preloaded, hence I never ran into that problem. However, most roms did not.
Here's how to set it up
Creating a new access point
When you need to add another data connection on your phone, obtain the access point name and settings (including username and password if required) from your mobile operator.
1) From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
2) Tap Mobile networks > Access Point Names.
3) On the APNs screen, press MENU and then tap New APN.
4) On the Edit access point screen, enter the APN settings. Tap an APN setting item to edit it.
5) Go to this site and find your mobile network company name
6) Modify the settings as said
7) Press MENU and then tap Save.
You should now have working 3G!

I thought you already had a thread on this and a mod said to post this in general?
If you think its apn problem, install the rom it works on and then download apn backup and restore. Use that to backup apns and then when you install a rom you want, use the same app to reinstall the apns you backed up.

Good advice, but this doesn't need to be in development.

All you have to do is:
-power off device
-insert GSM compatible SIM
-power on device
-navigate to Settings->Mobile Data->GSM/UMTS Options->Access Point Names
-in the 3 dot context menu at the top right of the APNs settings screen, you should have the option to create a new APN
Worked on mine without root. I'm rooted, now; still works.
