finding my primary&secondary HA? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

hi im trying to figure out how to find my primary/secondary HA address on a htc evo that i flashed to revol instead of sprint
I have tried setting them to 255.255.255.255 and that kinda works but everything is somewhat slow and i believe it causes name resolution failures because sometimes i have to reload a page 3 or 4 times before it will come up
I have found this thread here:
http://www.evdoforums.com/thread2001.html
which references this page:
http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed?whoami=1&w=
going to the dslreports tool (when connected to mobile network) shows me an ip address and says dns as level3.net (after i hit refresh3x.. gateway time out)
is that ip address going to be my HA? or am i confused here about what that url does?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Mobistar GPRS

Hey guys,
Sorry but I'm posting this question twice - there's already a version in the Networking forum, but I feel I have a better chance of meeting another Qtek 9090-owner with the same problem here. Moderators, feel free to remove one copy if this bothers you.
I have a Qtek 9090 and I recently activated GPRS on my Mobistar account - went to one of their shops and had one of those freckle-faced amateur kids set it up for me and everything - then I had to manually enter the settings on my Qtek, no problem so far, but whenever I try to connect, it says 'connecting' for a while then 'No modem at above number'.
I tried a variety of combinations with the settings 'provided' by Mobistar (they're not exactly fine examples of customer communications), but nothing worked.
Here are my settings:
Modem: Cellular line (GPRS) - nothing wrong here, I presume;
Access point name: I tried 'internet.be', 'web.pro.be' and 'mworld.be', but nothing worked.
User name and Password: Both 'mobistar'
IP adress: Server-assigned
Software compression: Tried checked and unchecked.
IP header compression: Tried checked and unchecked.
Server adress: DNS 212.065.063.010, Alt DNS 212.065.063.145
I also tried every combination of authentication (PAP/CHAP) and class (8/10) settings. The thing Mobistar activated for me was their Orange World program, or something, where I have to pay a fixed sum of 6 euros a month, and a little extra for actual GPRS traffic.
I'm going crazy about this, I already went back to their shop twice and each time another smelly, greasy teenager fumbled with my Qtek for a while, could to NOTHING MORE than entering these same settings AGAIN (as if I was too stupid to do that) and tell me it SHOULD work. Sorry for the shouting... this is getting under my skin... I'm actually a nice person you know...
I hate these kids, they do fine 90% of the time because 90% of the customers are even dumber... so they think they know it all. I think the only thing they know about cellphones is where to download the coolest ringtones or something.
Ok, I'm done now, it's off my chest. Sorry.
Any ideas?

T-Mobile UK data

Got my shiny new Touch Pro 2, the number has ported back from my PAYG Orange SIM today, it's all great.
But.
The auto-configured data connection doesn't seem to work.
It connects, but once connected, I can't browse any websites and can't synchronise my email. No errors, just nothing happens.
It's working fine through WiFi.
I've tried unticking the Proxy Server settings and I've tried removing them, then unticking. Still no luck.
I've tried setting up a manual connection with the following settings:
general.t-mobile.uk
user
wap
(also, t-mobile and password)
Am I missing something incredibly obvious?
Thanks
Does the following help:
http://www.manuals.t-mobile.co.uk/m...1&ref=featured&manualid=2497&subjectid=614849
APN: general.t-mobile.uk
Username: user
password: one2one
HTH - Rufus.
Alas, no. It still connects, and it still does nothing, including throw an error. :/
Have you tried getting the settings resent to your phone using the T-mobile web site?
Yep. I stuck in my mobile number and they recognised my device as a T-Mobile Vario V (!), but the only options it gives me are MMS and email (which asks all sorts of irrelevant questions like who my provider is).
I asked for the MMS settings, got a text with a PIN in, but no settings came through.
I've tried following the guide for the Vario III (which is pretty much how I'd been doing it anyway), but I always end up with something which connects but never does anything.
I'll try a hard reset tonight if nothing else works, but if anyone else has any ideas, I'll try 'em out first!
Hmm, I'm sure you've tried it, but Settings->Connections "Connection Setup" looks like some kind of wizard. I've not tried running it, don't remember having it on my TyTN II.
Also membered seeing this post recently:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388740
Good luck!
Well 2 hard resets later, and the data connects more-or-less properly (never seen the T-Mobile "content lock" before, that's for m.twitter.com, even though I've already synched my contacts with Facebook :/).
The email seems fairly random as to whether it'll work or just say "Cannot connect with current connection settings" - instantly. It's not even trying.
All works fine on wireless still. Very frustrating. Never had anything like this on the Vario III.
EDIT: Could be all Proxy Server related. I've unticked that again, and all seems well. Will see how it goes.
EDIT EDIT: Despite the content lock supposedly being off, I still can't get to http://m.twitter.com. I may have to ask in a shop tomorrow, and they'll blame the unsupported device *sigh*
It has to be the proxy server thingy. I had the same problems and I just went into edit settings and unticked the proxy server check box and that sorted it for me. I am curious to know why this has to be done though cos on my Kaiser it works without unticking the proxy sever.
I always set my Kaiser connection up manually, so didn't have that problem
This morning, the Twitter problem seems to have cleared too.
Also, TomTom is working, with full postcodes and sound, so I think I may actually have my perfect device for the moment

IM LOST 4 hours of tinkering and still...

First off I have the Sprint Vogue. Ok this morning I decided to update my phones Rom and this that and the other. I found NFSFAN's custom wm6.5 and I am loving it but now I have some issues.
Everything is loaded and partially working. I really like it but somehow and somewhere there are problem. I don't have internet access any longer, it dials out to #777 and then goes away like its connected, but when I went to update my email, weather, and then to try Skyfire.... I get no connection no internet, or something in that nature. So I looked in a few folders to look at some setting and nothing is out of order.
Here is one of my messages that I get when trying update my weather:
Couldn't establish internet interpreter.Connection
Line 1
(Temp\rartmp99.802\titaniumWeather.mscr): connect ("The Internet")
I think I may have the fix for Titanium Weather but I still need more help.
Then I get a window for:
Network Log On
Resourse: Data Connection
User Name:
Password:
Domain:
I looked at this setting in my network connection folder and press the finish button when I was done looking at the information since I couldn't find an exit button.
Another issue is my MSID is set to all zeros to the best of my knowledge is should be the same as my current phone number. I have tried ## this # that and I always dial out and an operator comes on saying the number or code entered is invalid.
Am I over thinking this or how do I fix this. I am getting frustrated with the searching and digging and not getting anywhere, can someone please help me with this?
also does it matter that my phone use to say it was the VOGU 100 and now it says its the VOGU 200
Are you with Sprint?
There is a ton of info in NFSFAN's thread regarding getting Sprint back on the internet, just search.
Thanks for that, I did use the search on this upgrading forum and couldnt find what I needed..... Thanks juddy, after a few minutes I found my answer and it all works now. All that was needed to be done was to revert to his/there 6.3, make sure that it all works and then revert back to 6.5. I am getting on the internet, weather is updating, emails are syncing onto my phone. So far so good only time will tell on how well it works. Thanks

4G connects, obtains IP but will not load WEB

Hoping someone can help me. I know I have read out there before about same issue. My 4g connects fine, stays connected, but will not load (connect ) to any web pages /network connections. It was working before and the only thing I remember having different is the new PRI . I am rooted and everything seems to work fine (except for wireless tether dropping every few minutes when using) . Can someone help me out with the 4g issue or link me to a thread that discusses the connected but not working aspect? Search engine here does not let two letter words come up in specific search so it makes it difficult. My mac Address is correct, but I forgot how to verify a good ip address, etc. Help!!

Are you using an ad blocking hosts file? If so, get rid of it. 4G doesn't work with ad blocking host files.
no I am not

[Q] Verizon HA server addresses

I was recently googling hacks for my evo and found something on changing the sprint HA server address to get faster speeds. http://www.evdoinfo.com/content/view/1960/63/
It gave a list of sprint HA servers and there was a closer server than the one my evo was currently set to use. So i changed it to the closer one and it dramaticly increased my 3g speeds.
Anyways my question is does anybody know what the verizon HA server addresses and locations are. I have searched all over with no luck and everyone i have asked has theirs set the same as mine 255.255.255.255 wich will or is suppose to get you the closest server, but does not always do so.. If anyone would be willing to check what their setting are and post that would be great. Hoping i can get the same results i got from my evo.
Aww no answers i thought for sure someone here would know something. Anyone?
I'm not even sure how to access the menu to see what my home agent is set to. I'd be interested in changing it myself, on a D2G.
I've done this before on a Palm pre, but can't seem to find out how to do this on a Verizon Droid...
