GPRS not connecting??

I have done multiple searches and have not found anything. WIFI works, but gprs will not connect, i've tried disabling proxy and everything. I am currently using schaps 3.60a and the error i get is the answering modem has disconnected to check your connection settings click setting tab. I have not seen this error before. I've flashed multiple 8525's before. I have one working perfectly fine, and this is a second one i followed the exact same steps but gprs will not work no matter what.

I'm suddenly having an identical or almost identical problem on VP3g's ROM. My Wifi connection with PIE works fine and I'm getting push e-mail delivered. But when I try to connect off WiFi as I had always done before, I get the message:
"Cannot connect with the current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings"
I've checked my settings and they seem correct and the same I always used. I've checked to see that my NoData settings were not inadvertently set wrong, but Media Net is Enabled. I've tried flushing temp files and cookies. I even tried erasing them and then reestablishing them by going online with WiFi. Finally I also tried using Opera.
Nothing works. This is maddening
The only thing strange or different is that I had set HTC Custom for temp files to be on my SD Card and when I now tried to set them on main memory (to see if somehow that might work) I get a series of error messages each time and files remain on SD.

Is it possible for the radio for gprs to be corrupt?? Or it could it be something simple as a registry edit? On the phone it is instantaneous when you try to connect to gprs it kicks back that message right away. So i know for sure gprs/edge is inop. Not sure why though.

Check with your operator
It happens to me once in a while even when the "E" shows up in the display indicating Edge abailability, but reality is that the network is down or highly congested.

chhuong I think you are right and it must be a corrupt registry entry. I know that the visible settings are correct.
It occurred to me that I have been using NODATA to turn off GPRS reception whenever I wanted to use Wifi and perhaps one of the times I set it to be disabled and then enabled it again, it must have been left as disabled even though it "says" that it has been re-enabled. Also I had a problem trying to change the cache from Main to SD, and would keep on getting errors whenever I did, using HTCustom. So probably at some point some registry corruption must have crept in. Unfortunately I've become too lazy to open the registry editor and dive in to find out where it might be.
Anyway, I finally got tired of it not working and used the problem as an excuse to move from VPG's 3.60.1 to 3.60.2. I reflashed this morning and it's been fine ever since. This time I won't use NODATA.

well actually i've tried flashing multiple roms and multiple radios, and nothing, still no gprs? So mine might be an internal fault?? Has anyone ever heard of that happening??

have you tried: start - settings - connections -connections - advanced - select networks - Media Net? Reverse it back to my network when you to use WIFI.

I've got similar problem after reflashing. Try to run Shap's Advanced configuration tool, select Connections tab and click Enable HSDPA. Don't ask me why, but it helped me to solve the problem, even there is no HSDPA available here...

I am having the same problem but i dont think its schaps rom, i think it happened either after i installed the 1.54.10 radio or after i installed the shogun cabs. If a moderator or senior could point us in the right directions, it would be much appreciated.

I tired that many times, but it didnt help, thanks anyways.

FWIW, I was able to clear this up the last time it occurred by going in to Menu > Tools > Options > Memory and clearing the History, deleting files and clearing cookies, then soft reset, and everything was okay.

Try this cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=54309&d=1192447925, and if it doesnt work try enabling hspda, and if that doesnt work, try calling your provider and ask them to make sure that your account is enabled for data. I tried all that, then, because i dont have a data plan, but i use pay per usage, i went to ATT's site and added a data plan. Now it works, so i think its disabled on ATT's side. GOOD LUCK FELLOW HACKERS

IE just won't connect...

Hi there, first post from me.
Great forum here found it really helpful over the last few weeks.
I've become a little stuck with my connections recently. I managed to flash my phone with the WM6 upgrade when I first got it and all was good, 4GB Micro Card, TomTom 6 all working with GPS etc. However, I tried to upload some corrupted maps for TomTOm and had to Hard reset my phone.
Now, since this I've had grief with my connections. I've finally managed to get these working again and I can connect to Windows Live and download my hotmail with both WiFi and GPRS connections. However, Internet Explorer just won't work. I've tried forcing it to use WiFi with the phone shut off, doesn't work. Tried it with GPRS with WiFi off, doesn't work either.
When I try to browse to an address it just pops up "Cannot Connect with current connection settings" I've tried all sorts now and I just cannot get it to work. I have "this network connects to the internet" checked in Proxy settings.
The only thing I have noticed is I have a load of connections under Internet Sharing which are no longer current yet they are still there.
Any help gratefully received!

You could just make a backup of everything and hard reset. I know thats a bit harsh, but it always works. I usually don't resort to that as a first, but give it a try.. just make sure everything is backed up to ur storage card and synced w activesync/wmdc. any questions, dont hesitiate to pm me

Cheers, just done that now and checked PIE worked fine before doing anything else.
All groovy now. Very odd it did what it did.

Yeah, with ATT/Cingular here and after a month or so I can no longer connect to much. I either install a new rom or do a hard reset and all works after. I don't know why it craps out for a bit then works good on a re-install. Once my device is set up I don't change much on it. strange, but not that big of a deal as I flash the new releases rather frequently.

[Q[ Anyway to pull WiFi Driver from 2.2.1 and replace 2.3.3

Hey guys
As some may or may not be aware i cant and a few select others can not use WiFi on any custome/stock 2.3.3 rom.
My issue is not with connecting to a router, its with data not being pulled through to the handset, so the handset basically tells me that it cant display a webpage or access the market.
If i use any 2.2.1 rom, stock or custom it works absolutely perfect.
So it got me thinking is it a WiFi driver issue? and if so would it be possible to pull the driver out of a 2.2.1 rom to replace the driver within the 2.3.3 rom?
Gingerbread is not a necessity for me i just want it as an option.
as for HTC they are utterly useless and all they offer is a repair when clearly its a software issue
So is there a way to do this?

i dont think it is possible because drivers are usually built when the kernel is built so swapping one from another rom i doubt will not work..

My Problem SOLVED by flashing LeeDroid 3.0.3. Check That

I've been on the phone with HTC several times and here is what I've heard back via email:
"I understand that you are currently experiencing difficulties with data connection side of the phone.
I cannot give you a reason on what happen to your device even though we have sucessfull models updated with the same FOTA.
In order to rectify this I would like you to perform the following actions:
1) Stop the automatic Backup in your phone. From the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Privacy. Uncheck "Backup my settings".
2) Copy your Memory Card's personal data (photos, music, etc) into a PC Windows Desktop. Use the option "Disk Drive" when plug the USB cable.
3) Format the SD Card. While connected to a Windows PC. You can select the Format option via Windows Explorer or with the cable unplugged you can go from the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > SD & Phone Storage > Unmount / Erase SD Card.
4) Remove the SIM Card and the Memory Card.
5) Hard Reset your Mobile Device.
6) Skip the initial setup. Do not log into your Gmail account at this stage but setup the correct time and date on your mobile phone.
7) Insert the SIM card, accept the SIM notification on the top left corner and test the voice call, SMS and Internet Service.
Report back if one of this services fails with exact description on how you are doing to perform the task.
8) If possible, switch off and switch on your personal Wi-Fi router after 1 minute. Switch Wi-Fi on your mobile device and connect to the router. Report back if one of this services fails with exact description on how you are doing to perform the task.
9) Log into your Gmail account from the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Accounts & Sync > Add account and select Google.
Once more test and report back if the problem persists.
"

and with this method you solved the problem?i´ve curiosity lol

Given that I've already had a normal hard reset albeit without sim card dance, is it worth trying to do yet another one?
I just finished reinstalling apps and contacts - would hate to do this all over again.
Thanks

exactly! i am not sure whether the guys in support know what they are talking about...

Just keeping you busy until you've forgotten your original question ;-)

+1 for me there!
I now have switched several times from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 and back, did full wipes, did resets, did reboots, did reflashes, tried EXT4 in the process, did even some praying... Nothing worked out so far.
I think it's kinda frustrating!
BTW: might there be a link to Thomson SpeedTouch WiFi access points? For I have had the experience that the WiFi did work at my office, where they use (amongst others) Sitecom access points, whilst at home I have SpeedTouch and no data stream.

There could well be a link there, i have a speedtouch router at homel Will try our belking access point at work, give me a few mins

Ok using the belkin at work, nothing, using the linksys one at work, it works.
so there are some defo issues with compatability, one thing is that my speedtouch is an N Series router, the Belkin also is N, the Linksys one is a/b/g
i wonder if there is something broken with compatability. Still no official stance from HTC

At other office, we use D-Link access points (DAP-1360) also N series with no possible WiFi connection running Gingerbread.
I am not sure but afaIk, my home SpeedTouch isn't N series. I will look that up next thing I come home.
Will report back.
Found another WiFi access point at the office 'somewhere in the air': Belkin G Plus MIMO (obviously a G-band router) and it connects fine!!

Hi ascottuk,
Just verified my WiFi access point at home (SpeedTouch) and it definitely is b/g.
So it can't be a N protocol incompatibility problem, since I have the mentioned WiFi problems at home too (and I am sure it isn't a signal strength problem).

[Q] How to bypass the need of having a security when accessing a secured WiFi network

Hey guys,
I have a simple question, which I hope, has a simple, but atleast an positive answer.
When I try to connect my HTC One X with the school Wifi network, it says 'You need to have a pincode, password or path-unlock security, otherwise you cannot access the network' (when you open the phone)
So the question: Anyway of bypassing it? I only want to move the ring to unlock the phone, instead of ALSO having a pincode, password or path-unlock.

Are you sure this isn't something to do with the Wireless encryption rather than security for unlocking your phone?

Pretty sure it has something to do with the network itself, but hope someone can tell me how to bypass it
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

If I understand you correctly, you are wanting to hack a WEP code? I would respectfully suggest that particular area of the forum is devoted to the HTC One X whereas your query would be better directed to a website that deals with security issues.

I think the OP doesn't want to hack.
@ OP: Ever tried opening up the browser, type in an address and then the security screen of the network appears so you can log in and probably even safe your credentials?
Elsewise I don't know either, sorry.

The problem is that the the OS requires a pin code to be set up in order to store the WifFi credentials.
So if you want to log onto the network you must set up a pin. I have this problem at Uni.
No solution yet.

On Android 2.3.x (in CM7 at least) there was the option to turn off this requirement. Annoying that it's been removed in ICS!

Hi,
I also face this issue when connecting to my office WIFI hotspot. But, after you have set the pin and then set the password to connect to your WIFI. You can disable the PIN lock in Security setting right away. It's just one-time setting.

Yeah. I removed the pin and stuff and now it still reconnects..
The only problem: I can browse the web, but cannot send mails. It keeps saying 'mail not sent'.
Any ideas?

It's more than likely to do with the exchange setup, I know at our offices we have the option to enforce encryption and various different things from the server before allowing people to connect. As to why it's showing when you try to connect to the wifi network, I've no idea. It must be trying to access the domain.

It has not been removed in ICS - this appears to be an HTC implementation.
I connect to the company 802.1x EAP network using PEAP and on my Galaxy Nexus there is no requirement to set a password/pattern, etc to store said 'credentials'. Only now that I'm trying this with my One X do I see this pop-up.
Yes, VPN credentials always required a password/pattern in ICS, but this ain't no VPN.

WiFi connected without internet

Dear All,
My note 10+ loosing internet randomly. While checking WiFi showing the message "WiFi connected without internet". after switching on and off it reconnects but lose connection after sometime. My other android phones are connected to the same WiFi but have no issue.
Please help me solve the issue.

A similar thread was made on the subject - link here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10+/help/android-10-5g-wifi-dropping-t4037661
For practical intents and purposes it's almost like when the issue happens the phone is not able to resolve a DNS query. I base this on 2 hypothesis - first being that the phone is still connected to the wifi access point and can still access LAN resources. The second being that the phone must either poll the internet (i.e ping a specific address) on a regular basis. If the poll was unsuccessful it flags the connection as "WiFi connected but no internet".
The things you can try are:
update the firmware on your phone (if not already)
factory data reset (read note 1 below)
reset network settings
try a different wireless router (read note 2 and 3 below)
disable private dns (read note 4 below)
If you use tasker create a routine to automate a temporary solution (read note 5)
Notes
The issue maybe a corrupted setting within the phone. I have had similar issues before (not with just this phone) and a factory data reset helped. One thing to take note of is that after the phone had completed it's factory data reset I did not attempt to restore a backup. This is important to keep in mind because any issues that were present (due to corrupted settings) would exist also in the pre-factory data reset backup you made.
With my previous router I had this issue but had since replaced it with a Wifi 6 capable router. After getting the new router I have not had any further issues what so ever. Also make sure your wireless router is up to date on it's firmware. It maybe possible that the wireless router you have is old enough (from when it was released, not from when you bought it) that a replacement might be the only way to resolve the issue.
To help rule out a wireless router issue try using a different one. You can borrow a friend's internet connection for a while, or a public cafe or what ever. Point is you are trying to see if the issue happens again when you are using a totally different wireless access point (by totally different I mean hardware/model and not just renaming the SSID).
I had the issue happen when using private DNS. For what ever reason the issue was with the DNS provider I had choosen. Turning the Private DNS setting off helped resolve the issue. After turning the setting off it may take a bit before the phone recognizes it was turned off, but you can hasten this process by toggling WiFi off and back on.
The Tasker option is one I did and it worked quite well. You may need to adjust the routine to suit your particular needs but it's basically what is at this link here. Best part of this option is that you can have it only activate when your connected to the problematic wifi access point and every X number of minutes (helps ensure that you use it only when needed). The routine (when setup correctly) should run every 10 minutes in where it attempts to access a website and assigns the results to a variable. The variable is then checked to see if it matches a specific result (in this case an error code), and if it does match it will toggle WiFi off and back on (after a brief pause/wait period between toggle off and toggle on) automatically. Granted it sounds like a lot of work, but it's really not that complex. Also I consider this is a temporary solution because you may find that on later firmware updates applied to the phone (or you may end up getting a new wireless router) the issue will have been resolved.
