trouble setting up Orange Connections in WM6

Hi all
I've just flashed to the latest ax3l ROM (as per sig), but am having trouble getting the Orange connection settings to appear correctly, when re-entering them manually.
I'm using the settings for Orange UK as per those posted by Findus, found half way down this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299023&page=5&highlight=orange+MMS+settings
Basically, I can't get the the the three separate Operator Connections to list separately. Either 2 or all of them will always come under the Modems tab after selecting "Manage existing connections" from the only "My Work Connection" listed on the initial page.
As a result I cannot specify the correct settings under the Proxy tab for each individual connection.
What I think I need to see is all 3 connections listed individually on the initial Connections page, is this correct?
I'm guessing these settings are written for WM5, and I'm missing something obvious here?
Any help hugely appreciated

try this cab

thanks for the quick reply to my long question, and a cab is certainly easier than tapping it all out
interestingly, the cab doesn't enter all the above connections (only the orange GPRS connection and the MMS server settings), but browsing by GPRS and at least sending MMS now both work fine. I'm guessing that it was ripped from the original Orange ROM?
thanks anyway

i'm on my ppc now, trying to upload two more cabs for you to try
all found by googling this site

sorry, i should have made that clearer - as far as I can see, everything I need is now working corrrectly, from the first cab you originally posted - thank you!
The only thing I've not checked properly yet is receiving MMS, and verifying the ones I sent have been received OK, which I'll get the chance to do later. I was only wondering out of interest why the connections didn't look correct as per the original post, and whether the rest of them were necessary, as all seems OK so far.
Thanks for the other two though, I'll keep them on the card in case things aren't working correctly. TBH, I hadn't thought to search for orange settings as cabs, as I'd been searching for the settings themselves, and didn't realise they were available in cabs.
Might be an idea for a sticky somewhere?

i think the last cab is in a sticky somewhere.
and you're right, a lot of the orange setting are minimal, for example, i don't think they have passwords in their settings etc

sorry, been away for last 2 weeks, and decided to not be fussed about fixing things for a change
it appears i now have no messaging at all, although GPRS works fine. i
Have been through the settings with Orange, and apparently all are OK (although i didn't mention flashed rom)... i also removed a username and password in the MMS settings which had appeared after one of the CABs, like you mention.
does anyone have or know of any screenshots with the relevant settings in the connections pages pictured for WM6 and orange?
this is odd, as i wouldn't have thought norma SMS could be affected by these settings - cannot currently send or receive

if it's just the sms settings (have you checked voicemail?)
check the following
open the 'phone program' go to menu\options\services\
tap 'Voice Mail and Text Messages' then tap 'get settings'
the text number should be
+447973100973
(voice mail
+447973100123)
if these settings are not missing/wrong or doesn't sort it out if it is wrong, then I'm sorry but I don't know the answer

thanks again for your help -I've checked all those as well now, and all seem correct too, although I'm unable to auto downwload the settings to re-confirm them [EDIT - phone is reading settings fdrom network correctly now, but messaging still not working] ...
I'll pull some screenshots of my own settings off, as It's probably easier for others to see errors in my settings, rather than me expect others post theirs
if nothing goes after that, then I suppose it's a ROM issue (maybe burnt inrroectly?) and a reflash and re-install is in order

back from the dead.
thought I'd add the only CAB that seeems to have worked for me, for anyone else searching

MMS Messaging for 3VOLUTION SERIES 3VO.1.40.070109 ?

I've installed the 3VOLUTION SERIES 3VO.1.40.070109 and I noticed that although I can configure the MMS settings in GPRS, I can't configure the additional options required in the MMS settings (per T-Mobile's instructions) as these options do not exist.
I also tried the ArcSoft software, although it installs it seems to be only designed for PPC's or Windows Mobile Professional as the menus bleed beneath the S621's screen size. Although I was able to configure it, I couldn't confirm my settings and exit the screen.
I also tried the later ROM, but I experienced too many issues with my Internet connections that I didn't experience with the earlier ROM.
Are there any options for establishing the required MMS settings with this ROM or is there a WM6 Standard version of ArcSoft that I could use to enable MMS settings to work?
Thank you,
Tim

what countries tmobile mms setting do you need? perhaps then we can help find you a solution. you should be using the 3VO.2.00.071809 release since it is the most recent and is nearly flawless. although ookba had made and additional settings cab for earlier version for mms setting. i'll send you the cab in a pm if you don't want to reflash to the newest version

I have T-Mobile USA, came over with my HTC-S621 from Suncom. The settings are configured in the 'settings, connection, gprs area'. But in the actual MMS area which is now threaded with SMS, there is no longer an option to input the required settings. The option just no longer exists... must be a 6.5 feature or something.
Thank you,
Tim

attached cab here since i couldn't send it to you.

Thank you! I'll try it out and let you know.

if it doesn't work you should reflash to the latest version and set you connection setting the tmobile usa. it should fix everything from that point. i got my phone in israel and the settings work fine with tmobile usa. additionally if you don't want to flash again reset you connection with the connection setup found in the start menu and restart your phone.

I installed the update, but the '3VO Settings Update.cab' file doesn't seem to address the missing MMS settings field.
Here are the T-Mobile instructions.
T-Mobile MMS Settings:
Setting up the data account <---- This portion is available for setup.
1. Tap Start.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Tap on the Connections tab.
4. Tap the Connections icon.
5. Tap Add a new modem connection under T-Mobile GPRS.
6. Enter PictureMessaging in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Tap to select Cellular Line (GPRS) from the Select a modem drop down list.
8. Tap Next.
9. Enter wap.voicestream.com in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Tap Finish.
Setting up the MMS profile <--- this part isn't available in the new ROM.
1. Tap Start again.
2. Tap Messaging.
3. Tap Menu.
4. Tap MMS Configuration.
5. Tap the Servers tab.
6. Tap New.
7. Enter PictureMessaging in the Server Name field.
8. Enter 216.155.165.050 in the Gateway field.
9. Enter 8080 in the Port number field.
10. Enter http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms in the Server address field.
11. Tap to select T-Mobile GPRS from the Connect via drop down list.
12. Tap to select WAP 2.0 from the WAP Version dropdown.
13. Tap OK.
14. Scroll to PictureMessaging and tap Set As Default.
15. Tap OK.
The new MMS profile is now configured and ready for use.
Any other ideas?
Thank you,
Tim

These are not present in the NRG27 Energy 6.5 ROM either. This is the first I heard of these setting too. Although that does not mean much since I have never used picture messages.

I just go to start/accessories and run the connection setup, set my phone to USA and T-mobile and it works as it should...my MMS messages go through just fine

Maybe posting this in the correct thread would be a good idea??
There is a "MMS Settings" selection in Settings.

I posted it here because once a thread gets as large as yours a post can get lost in the 'noise'.
I did look for a MMS Settings page under settings, but I can't find one. I also tried the Internet Connections Wizard but that didn't work for me. In fact, using that messed up my other connections.
I used my SbBackup to restore it back so that my Internet would work again. However, I really don't think it's necessarily your ROM, I think that perhaps my SUNCOM Sim Chip doesn't want to cooperate with T-Mobile or something.
But I was hoping to find the menu page to configure the settings in MMS to try again, but it seems in WM6.5, Microsoft didn't think they were needed.
I would just run into a T-Mobile store and see if they could help me, but I don't think they would want to help me since I'm not on a ROM that they'd customarily support.
With exception to the MMS, everything else is working great!
Thank you,
Tim

the reason why people think that a post will get lost inside of any thread is 'cause people don't search, or search inside a thread. If a thread has 100 pages and anyone has a question, but doesn't want to sit thru 100 pages, they should use the search this thread feature a the top, that's available when you're reading a thread, you do a search like any other time except this feature will only search inside the opened thread.
By making multiple threads with different questions about the same rom,app,system, bug, whatever, all it does when someone actually does a search, it gives them that many more results , that are gonna have to be read in order to find the answer.
That's the main reason for all of us to encourage everyone to please post questions on the proper thread, instead of making a new one.

Can someone help me login to facebook?

I posted my question on other threads but no one has answered. So I'll ask it here. For some strange reason, I can't log into facebook w/Sense. When I go to Add account...I input all username, password etc. and then I get the message that this service is unavailable.
I Googled this and people and it was postings of people saying to check your Facebook Privacy settings. I checked them and everything appears to be ok. facebook for Android works fine but not Facebook w/ Sense.
So do anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

I had the same problem.
Go to Facebook > Account > Privacy Settings > Applications and Websites (Edit Your Settings) > Turn On platform applications

Factory data reset or if you have a custom recovery wipe and start from fresh or just simply try rebooting phone. Just a suggestion

Yeah..I tried that and it's still a no go. I get the same message "this service is unavailable.
I also tried a a clean wipe and fresh install of my rom, factory reset as well as turning the phone on and off. And neither of those worked either.

[Q] unable to use browser but can update weather/fb/email etc?

I've got a bit of weird problem on HTC Desire.
I've noticed that whenever I'm using my mobile internet data (Vodafone Aus), I can't actually do any sort of web browsing, but I can use the facebook app, update the weather widget, retrieve email from hotmail + Gmail etc, basically everything that needs internet access except use the browser.
I've tried both the default and Dolphin HD with no luck - Google home page will load but that's only because its in the cache - I can't do any new Google searches etc.
I know the phone can access websites because I can browse the net when I connect to my uni's WiFi, or any other WiFi.
Wondering if there's some kind of mobile internet setting I should be changing that I'm not aware that might solve this?
I know I should call Vodafone and ask them to check if there's somehow a problem on my account on their end but figured I might ask on here first to see if anyone else has had anything like this happen before I do so - just so they don't turn around and tell me its the phone.
(when I went in to set up the plan, the lady specifically told me that they took no responsibility for their services working on a "non Vodafone phone")
Oh and I don't think its worthy to note, but just in case:
ever since I switched to the contract from pre-paid I haven't been able to send international text, despite having roaming activated. Since I switched plans when I got the new phone, I can't actually determine if its the contract, the phone, or both that's not letting me send (but I suspect its Vodafone - something else I need to hassle them about)
Any help would be awesome

Sounds like you don't have some settings. Give Vodafone a ring and see if they can send the correct settings to your phone. They won't take responsibility but they can help you like that since your using their service. If that doesn't work, have a look in the APN settings.

Thanks Meaple, I'll have a go, although Vodafone generally redirects you to their website where you input your phone model and it gives you the APN values you need to put in, which I have done.
Having said that, I can't send MMS with my phone despite having their APN values, so I know the MMS part must be wrong somehow
- I didn't think it could be the APN because the internet isn't completely inaccessible? Is it possible for apps to be able to use the net while the browser can't?

Never mind - Solved my problem.
In my attempt to fix my MMS problem way back, I changed settings around and stupidly added the "MMS Port" and "MMS proxy" as the proxy + port for internet, without realising the actual options for those two were further down.
- Deleted those, and went back and re-did the setup for the MMS as per vodafone instructions, setting up a separate "VF PXT" APN
(in my search for solutions I'd found a post somewhere saying you could combine the information for MMS and internet into 1 APN, and that's what I had done)
Cheers for nudging me to re-check APN settings, Meaple

[Q] A bunch of questions.

Just installed CM7 a few days ago on my HYC Desire CDMA, everything went flawlessly, works excellent.
I have a few random questions though.
I was playing around with the screen brightness settings (x%,x%,x%) and I can't for the life of me find that option again, I swear I've looked everywhere again but can't find it. I only want to find it again because my screen is too dark when it drops down to the lowest setting and I want to change the spectrum percentage that it uses.
On my blackberry it took some finagling but I managed to get my Yahoo email account working despite it not being pop3, I can not figure it out on android despite finding quite a few guides on how to do it.
Mere days ago it was working on my blackberry and not in a dedicated Yahoo app, but in the default email application that I set up manually.
I installed the appmarket and Cyanogenmod from the SD card, does those installer files still need to be there or have they been installed 'into' the phone?
Also there is an option to turn of the 'shutter' noise on the camera but when you focus it still makes a noise, any idea how to get rid of this?
I'd like to change the startup graphics if possible too.
Can the HTC logo be changed?
or the Cyanogenmod logo?
Even if they were just removed a la removing the logo from a PC bios and it showed what was going on in the background.
Actually that'd just be cool to do that.

1. Try Settings>Cyanogenmod Settings>Interface>Notification power widget>Widget buttons>Brightness modes(you have to scroll all the day down)
2. Mine set it up automatically. I just added a yahoomail and password and settings were automatically loaded. But if it didn't, add an account and use the following
Incoming settings:
Username: your_email@yahoo.com
Password: your_email_password
IMAP: android.imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Security Type: SSL
Outgoing settings
SMTP: android.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465
Security type: SSL
-Check "Require to sign in"
Username: your_email@yahoo.com
Password: your_password
3. you can delete the .zip files for the rom and the google apps
4. none for the autofocus lock-in sound... just the shutter can be turned off. it needs additional hack ability to disable it afaik
5. HTC logo can be changed but you need to be s-off for that. Cyanogenmod animation can be replaced. The file is under system/media/bootanimation.zip. Do a search on the Desire themes section for bootanimation and it will give you several results. all you need to do is replace the zip file with the same file name. You need s-off for this as well or replace the file before flashing.

I saw a modded .apk for CM5 where someone had done this, but the link was dead and the thread was years old.
Maybe someone has done this with CM7?

I am not aware if there is any. Try setting the phone volume to mute. I believe it stops the focus sound from sounding off. I'm using the nightly version so it may not be on the Stable or Release Candidate version If that's what you are using.
