Hello just recieved my new orbit with wm6, from 02 .
same sim card from my wizard is in use ..
I cant get a "G" signal on my screen where as on my wizard it was there all the time.???
Any Ideas would be appreciated?
GPRS settings
The following is some info I got from O2 when struggling with the same problem
--------------
Initial Setup (normally done when switching the XDA on for the first time)
1. Tap 'Start'.
2. Tap 'Programs'.
3. Tap 'O2 Operator Settings'.
4. Check that the 'I want to do auto configuration now...' box is ticked.
5. Tap on the drop down box and tap the settings you require.
6. Tap 'OK'.
7. The phone will now download the settings then ask you to restart the phone for the settings to work.
8. The phone may hang at this point – it is now time to learn about the soft re-set mechanism !
Data Setup
The following may be required to make the default network connection HTTP rather than WAP:
1. Go to settings/connections/connections
2. Click on the advanced tab and "select networks", make sure BOTH say using "MY ISP"
Standard Settings
The following are all the manual settings for connecting to data if yours get lost
How do I manually check / setup the GPRS Web settings?
Go to [Start]
Tap [Settings]
Tap [Connections]
Tap [Connections]
Under [My ISP] tap [Manage Existing Connections]
Tap [Edit]. If this is not present tap [Add a new modem connection]
The [Select a Modem] drop-down box should be set to:
XDA Exec: [Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)]
XDA Mini S / Orbit: [Cellular Line (GPRS)]
Tap [Next]
The [Access Point Name] should be set to: mobile.o2.co.uk
Tap [Next]
The [Username] should be set to: o2web
The [Password] should be set to: password
Leave [Domain] blank
Tap [Advanced]
On the [TCP/IP] tab, only [Use Server-assigned IP Address] should be selected
Tap the [Servers] tab
Select [ Use Specific Server Addresses]
DNS: 193.113.200.200
Alt DNS: 193.113.200.201
Tap [ok]
Tap [Finish]
Thank you very much for your quick reply .
your very kind gonna have a bash now
EDIT tried this when i try to connect it does the gprs sign with arrows going left and right
then its says "cannot connect the remote party has ended the connection"
There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in your registered home network
Soft reset thats the power button held in and follow screen options isnt it?
regards andy
O2 GPRS
Soft reset sometimes helps - stick the stylus into the little hole on the bottom left.
Also, the instructions I got were for O2 in the UK, don't khow what happens if you are elsewhere
Hope this helps

that error is usually either the wrong user name or password.
Very nice, Mr Tilbury - fixed my O2 with a flashed ROM image a treat!
GPRS won't work
Glad to be of service
Hi,
i hope someone can help me with my little issue with WM6. In the connection manager i have 2 connections "My ISP" & "My Work" and on each there are again 2 connections "Nothing" & "T-Mobile". What i want is that i can change via shortcut or button on the todayscreen between "Nothing"&"T-Mobile" from "My ISP" & "My Work".
My Problem is that my interent goes by time and sometimes he just connects to the internet and i don't recognize it. Last time i was over 30 minutes online until i recognized
I also don't understand why he sometimes chooses "My ISP" and then "My Work" (however, both have the same entrys), but the important thing for me is that i need to change it quickly via button on the today screen. I found a registry entry where the connections are - in HKCU/Comm/Rasbook/ - but i can't find the value where he chooses which connection is currently used/active.
Hope someone can help me
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.
I've been having a weird problem lately on my Tilt 2 AT&T device. On boot, a "Logon to Server" window will pop up saying "Network Log On". Below it the following:
Resource: MEdia Net
User name: [email protected]
Password: ____________
Domain: ______________
And an unchecked "Save Password" selection
This came out of nowhere it seems. I'll also every once in awhile will get the 3G Icon on the top bar acting like it's trying to connect...instead of the usual 3-4 bars itll say "3G" with 2 arrows beneath it...one going left, one going right.
When I try to access an application that uses the network...say...Marketplace...I'll get a "Can't Access/Dial Network" grey bubble that pops up on the screen...Even when I "Dismiss" the bubble..it'll constantly pop back up. I also noticed in my TouchFlo settings area...the option to turn on and off the network will be on...then it'll flip off...then it'll flip on...like it's confused whether or not to connect.
It's weird...because it won't always do it...but majority of the time it will. I'll still get text messages and the marketplace and apps will work perfectly sometimes, then other times I'll get all this crap and will be forced to restart the device...
ANY IDEAS?
Me too!
I don't know what happened either, but it sure is annoying. I have the EXACT same problem. However, I think I may have caused it. I was tinkering with the advanced configuration tool and BsB Tweaks.
Does anyone who uses these two programs know which setting might be causing this? MediaNet Login Page opens when you reboot the phone.
Thanks!
I think I found the Fix
Sorry, I initially provided what I thought was a fix for this, but after several more tests the problem still exists periodically.
When I try to enter the destination address/city/postcode, the predictive search takes over and cannot enter my address. It doesn't show what I am trying to type but only shows what it can predict, sometimes wildly different than mine.
I have the option to select a word from the predictive search bar but this then gets added to the END of the text I have been trying to type and I have to delete everything and start again.
Even entering a simple address is unbearably difficult.
Here is a quote from another forum where another user has the same problem and describes it better:
"When I go to enter a destination, CoPilot starts recommending possible locations. Let's use Leicester as an example. I type in "lei" and the first box shows "lea", while the second box displays Lea in London. So I delete the "a" and try typing in "i" again, but the system automatically corrects it to "a" again.
If I just type the complete name, the third box (XT9's auto-suggest section) shows "leicester" as the first entry. Easy, you'd think - just click on that and it'll appear in the destination box. But it adds the "leicester" to whatever is already in the search string rather than replacing it, making CoPilot unusable."
Still no response from the copilot support. I am not using Swype just the normal Samsung keypad with xt9. Does anyone else have the same issue? Or better still, is there anybody that can make copilot work on galaxy s2 properly?
