Hello all.
Here are all of the known problems that I am having. with WM6 2.01.
(1) Icons on top (connection bubble) never change with the exception of ActiveSync. 3G icon constantly stays on even if connected through WiFi. Shutting phone off still shows Cingular bars as if connected. (Known issue)
(2) Soft button configuration changes do not stick. If I change the programs associated with them, it does nothing.
Also, today screen shows Calendar and ActiveSync as soft key programs, although programs are actually Calendar and Contacts. (Its all jacked up!)
(3) I cannot connect to the internet with my celluar service. It is as if there are no settings installed. The bottom of IE says "Connecting ... 0 KB." Then I get a message saying "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your settings, tap Settings."
I have tried turning on/off, soft reset, etc., but have had no luck
---I have searched the board for an answer to #3, and I have found many people who have similar problems (does not work after 30 min, soft reset will fix), but I do not remember seeing anyone whose settings have completely dropped.
Can anybody shed any light into any of these 3 problems? I really do not use Bluetooth, so I haven't tried anything with it yet. But all other problems I have had, I have been able to fix by myself.
Thanks,
Kangle

Did you put your connection settings back in after you upgraded to WM6??
No, but I didnt save them.
My Wi-Fi is working fine, but I had to config those. On other updates I had done prior, my 3G connection was fine without having to setup settings.
If you have not already done this, you have to go under connections and set up your providers settings. To enter proper settings go to Start/Settings/Connections Add a new modem connection. Enter any name you want for the NAME ( example "Cingular ISP") and make sure that under "select a modem" tab, "Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) is sellected. Click next access point name can be what ever you want to call the provider connection (Example "wap.cingular" or "isp.cingular"). And the rest I can not help you with untill we know who your provider is. I am sure if you let us know what provider you have, some one here can post the settings you need to have.
Hope this helps or at least gets you pointed in the right direction.
Awesome. Thanks for the help.
I am to the point where I need to enter user name, password, and domain. I wonder if I am going to need to call Cingular to find out some of that info (password).
Can anybody help me out with those settings?
Thanks,

see https://www.cingular.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB71396.html
but, if you had used the "SEARCH" button you would already have found this...
Go to https://www.cingular.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB71396.html for the settings.
Now I have a quick question that I need to have cleared up. When I connect onlince with my CIngular 8525 it always connects via GPRS/EDGE and not 3G. I do not see a 3G icon come up. Is this becasue there is no coverage at my home? Or did I mess up something?
I am using:
LVSW WM6 RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.30.0.1 [FIXED]
Hard SPLv7
I used the cingular setting cab found from the WIKI
I am using radio 1.40.30.00
Band setting under phone are set to auto

This would be difficult to answer, since we don't know where your home is. May I recommnd you visit THIS LINK
Lately I've been having a problem with my hermes where if I have the Wifi on for any amount of time after turning the wifi off the phone will not allow mt gprs to connect and the data icon in the comm manger is grayed out. Ive tried resetting my connection settings and soft resets work some times, a hard reset seemed to have done the trick but then it happened to me again this evening. I would just skip using the wifi but the reception in parts of my house can be spotty at times and I really don't want to miss my emails and such.
Any insight would be appreciated.
btw I'm running the latest version of LSVW and I have a cingular branded device.
I posted in the cm6 thread but it seems more people are interest in flaming other's post.
I have been running nightlies for a bit and decided to settle on 8/8. Usually I'm connected via wifi however, last night I noticed my phone no longer gets 3g or any data link. Is there a hidden setting? Under mobile network settings, I have data enabled, beyond that I can't figure it out.
I have tried full wipes and backups, re-installing cm6, re installing kernals, wimax and radio all to no avail.
no getting a notification that says "data roaming- you have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with...(can't read the rest off screen"
CM has data roaming off by default..have you tried turning data roaming on?
settings/wireless & networks/mobile networks
??
Yes, I was on the verizon network, odd though it wouldn't turn on data roaming for some reason. All my work was to no avail anyway, the tower near me is down. I just assumed it was working. No it get all my data back up. Thanks for your response.
I searched through these forums and I could not find an answer, so if I missed it, just let me know. I am curious if anybody knows how to solve this problem. I live in a small town that is on the At&t's Edge network, and I commute to a larger city with At&t's 3G/Hspda network.
Whenever the phone transitions from E to H networks, the data connection will not work. I activate Opera or do the weather update on the home screen and a message pops up saying that it cannot connect. Now, if I do a soft reset, it works perfectly. It never disconnects or gives me any problem. Also, when I return to the E signal, it switches over perfectly with absolutely no need for a reset. It started this when I installed the new Tilt2 rom from the HTC website. I have installed Net 3.5, jh2001 data speed fix, the advanced config tool, and have properly set up the required options on the config tool and under settings->connections->advanced network. If necessary, I have never changed the radio.
Has anybody else run into this problem or know of a fix? Thanks in advance.
Hello, I have an evo 4g that is flashed to boost. Has been working fine the past year an last week 3g stopped working.The icon is lit up but it seems that it does not work.Internal apps in the phone recognize if it is on or not either by attempting to work if it is lit up or by giving me the message that I need a data connection if it is not lit up. Tried rebooting-battery out and back in, tried uninstalling-reinstalling ROM(which is SS_Ultra) still no 3g. Wireless does work fine. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Roseypat...First I would dial ##33284# and then click "Data Status" and at the very top Where it says IP Address: after that does it say EVDO Rev A (with numbers like this 170.356.123.for example: EvDo Rev A 170.123.456.789.....or after the IP Address: does it say this 1xrtt 170.123.456.789) Also, below that it will say "Last Data Error:" if it says no data thats fine, but if it has a code what was it? This will at least tell us if you have a data connection and whether it is 3g(EvDo) or 1xrtt(2g)....Because you say that the 3g symbol is there it has to have a data connection...And the blinking your referring to is indicating that it is sending or receiving data.
That being said, this usually is related to a bad app downloaded or updated right around the time that it quit working...The first thing I would do is switch it to the stock rom if possible...But either way, I'm betting if you do a Factory Data Reset on your device(which will not effect the flash it will only erase all of the users inputs and data(ie apps, etc)....I just had someone with this exact issue and the Factory Data Reset fixed it back to normal. You can find this in the Storage section of the settings menu(at least on the stock rom anyways)...Btw, just to be safe, I would remove your sd card before you do the factory data reset. Good Luck.
