WM6- IE and Messaging won't connect during phone call... - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Before everyone cries "duh, of course GPRS doesn't work during a call!" let me say I'm not talking about GPRS/EDGE.
With PDAViet4, I was surprised today to discover that IE and Messaging wouldn't connect with wi-fi while I was on the phone. It used to with WM5.
Weird data points for diagnosing: Netfront and QMail (3rd party browser and e-mail clients) work with wi-fi while on the phone, so it's not a "port" issue, and IE can connect to my DSL modem and wireless router (192.168.x.x addresses work!) but if I try anything on the 'net I get "locating" forever, then when I hang up the phone, it connects!
Can anyone confirm this behavior and/or suggest a fix?

How are Messaging and IE set to connect to the net?

I use "My Work Network" for both settings in Connections ("programs that connect to the internet should use" and "connect to private network should use"), and have tried setting Messaging to both "Work" and "Internet."
I create a GPRS dial-up connection in "My Work Network", so everything falls back to GPRS/EDGE when wi-fi isn't on or available.
It all works as it should in WM5 regardless of phone status, and works in WM6 unless I make a phone call!
Weird. I don't really need web access often while on the phone, but I'm just trying to work out the WM6 "bugs" if possible!
Thanks!

I wasn't able to connect as well.
This is related to PdaViet4. Wish someone could post a fix...so far no luck for me..

Are we sure it's related to PDAViet4 or all Crossbow ROMs? Anyone with a different ROM want to see if IE works over Wi-Fi when on the phone?

My only problem is live messenger wont connect with PV4. IE is fine with all roms for me.

FWIW, IE and messaging are now working for me over Wi-Fi during phone calls. I don't know what I did if anything, but it worked.
Now if only the random power ups would stop! ;-)

when i am at home i have to put my connections on My Isp.. when i am at work due to the firewall i have to use Work Network.. and i can surf just fine through activesync
Depending on what ROM you have, check if it has a proxy setting in your Connections tab.
latest tmobile rom.
has proxy settings, but not set, shouldn't need to.
so no one else has a problem with the latest activesync?
I'm on T-Mobile USA and i'm not having any problems with ActiveSync (Version 4.2) and T-Mobile's latest 2.26 ROM.
Can you post more information about your setup, both PC and MDA? As it could be a configuration issue.
Activesync works fine, syncs all my stuff no probs. Just cant use the internet.
I thought you could just open pie and it would automatically connect?
Can't get to internet using activesync
I can sync, but cannot update pocketweather. Any ideas?
Same problem, internet doesn't work for me at all.
Gosh dunno why I'm having such a hard time with the internet working. On my first 8125 everything went fine, internet work with activesync and wi-fi without setting anything. But now I can't seem to get them to work at all with 2 newer 8125. Try Mr. Clean rom, Molski, summitter, format my computer. None was able to get my internet back? Can anyone tell me what setting did they put inorder to get thier internet thur activiesync and wi-fi.....thou I thought it should just automatically be the same as my comp ADSL ....like before, plug and away I can update weathers and surf net?
Anyone out there, got there internet working smoothly like I had in the first time?
might have the answer, worked for me.
Okay for anyone that is having problems with Internet working thur Activesync, you can try to go into start, setting, connections, usb to pc and uncheck enable advanced network functionality.
And it work for me, yahooooooooooo....
But what about eMail?
I have my TMO MDA set up for a Comcast eMail account. When I go GPRS, the eMail works fine.
But when I use Activesynch and my USB cable, I get "Cannot connect with current connection settings...."
Also, is there ANY way to have eMail give me the full message the first time, rather than requiring be me to click on the full message and reconnect?

I've been having the sync without passthrough for about 2 months now.
Great. When I try to go into "USB To PC" the application basically crashes. Does anyone know the registry edit that would be needed to disable advanced network functionality?
-AnarchE
thanks!
I've had a sync issue and the issue where passthrough internet didn't work for 2 months. This little change fixed both.
Thanks.

Also check Active sync, File -> Connection settings -> this computer is connected to: -> The Internet.
This did the trick for me, now it's updating perfectly.

IE Cannot Browse Internet via GPRS

Installed Opera and it works fine.
For some reason, IE doesnt seem to use my GPRS connection to connect to the internet. If I enable Wifi, it works as well.
I noticed this trouble after flashing the rom to Dutty's TouchFlo AT&T beta 2. IE displays "Locating" in the status bar. After a couple of minutes I get the pop up message "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later."
I changed my network setting to use the same GPRS provider for both internet and private networks.
I can active sync with my exchange server. I can get weather updates. I can RDP my exchange server. All signs of internet connectivity are present.
I can live with Opera, but it beats me why and where in the registry is this set.
I have googled and researched on the net, most i found was a registry setting that pointed to the user agent. but i later found out that it wasn't necessarily causing the issue. It just instructed the site that you were a mobile device and too spit out a mobile page if available.
Your help is appreciated!
Update
Ok this issue is resolved when i reverted to the original HTC Kaiser ROM...dont know why this happens only with dutty roms.
Giving Custel Roms a shot to see if this is still an issue

Call your carrier and ask if there are any reports with GPRS/3G access at the area where you have problems. Sometimes a faulty cell transmitter can cause this.

I'm reasonably sure it's the phone, happens at home, happens at work, happened on vacation in both San Antonio and South Padre Island.
From what we have heard on here for US settings you may to disable 'Use Proxy settings' for your connection. That may help.
IE Cannot Browse Internet ...
so sorry guys but i may be posting this under an inappropriate post...
but my problem here is that i cannot browse Internet via active sync USB connection. it is giving me an error saying "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later".. this is strange but i was able to browse before. this happened suddenly and i haven't changed any settings. Tried remedies posted on other forums, how ever it dint work for me, Appreciate if any one could help me.
cheers
It happens because it is a AT&T based rom. They orinally configured the rom to use a Proxy server. There is a program i have which unregisters the proxy from the registry and Walla!!!!!
It happeed to my WM6, same here can use IE to surf internet by GPRS or USB, after disable proxy setting, is bck to normal, thanks!!
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Internet settings\EnableAutoDetect = 1
It works!!!
I had similar issues with Orange in the UK.
Received phone on Dec 7th, worked an absolute dream til the 11th when started dropping calls (issues with 3g network) and unable to connect to the internet via IE though Blackberry/Opera could still connect.
Well, after 3 handset replacements and everyone at Orange having no idea I think I figured it out. It's the Blackberry software. It seems to 'trick' IE into thinking there is a present GPRS connection, but obviously the Blackberry connection seems to use different broadcast ports where as other apps like Opera actively try to 'lock on' to a valid GPRS signal.
So, long post short... Spend the $24 and get Opera and leave IE to be confused by itself. Oh, and don't expect the 'tech support' at Orange to ever know what's going on!
Which program

HTC Diamond on T-Mobile Uk – issues with Messenger/Hotmail/Live

Hi, I have used this site for around 2 years, and often found answers…..however, this one I cant get round…I hope someone can help..here goes :-
Have tried the following on all of these ROMS
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-ROM-v2-0
SwiftBL-Diamond-ROM-v3-0
When trying to sign into MSN Messenger I don’t even get to the “enter Name/PW” section, it simply says “There was a problem signing you into messenger. It may be the service or you may be in a place with bad reception. Please try again later”
When trying to add a mail client (hotmail) I enter my ID/PW and then it says it has found the settings for Hotmail. I press next and it says that again it cant connect
When trying to sign into Windows Live it says it cant connect
I have evoked IE and opera to ensure I have internet connection
If I turn on WIFI, all connect perfectly.
I have not only tried the different Roms, but also tried other versions of Windows live cabs with no luck
Can anyone help?
I've only tries the TLR rom but i have the same issue, cannot connect using GPRS or 3G but connects fine using Wifi or via ActiveSync. Im also on Tmob
its to do with T-Mobile, they have limited the connection you get when dialing from the handset.
I had the same problem. You can phone T-Mobile and see if they can sort it out for you.
Cheers,
re Phoning T-Mobile
I did phone T-Mobile, and they said its not to do with them. I used to have the MDA Compact III and that works with MSN etc, and if i turn that phone back on with my tmobile chip, it works, so guess it isnt T-Mobile, unless they can block specifc requests from specific phones?

i was having problems with my MDACIII, thats when i found out it was T-Mobile.... dont use 3G or GPRS anymore, just WiFi, so cant say if it happens on my Diamond...
I just had a fiddle around and i may have fixed this issue.
Settings - Connections - Connections - Click Manage existing connections - Proxy settings tab - Untick "this network uses a proxy"
I can now sync my hotmail fine.
Re Proxy / connection settings
wahoo - thats fixed it
Thanks alot James, i will no longer throw the phone out of the window
Excellent
Paul
Have a t-mobile mda compact iv(t-mobiles diamond version)you cannot do this fix on it because the internet connection is disabled by t-mobile from altering manual,it says it is preconfigured and manual setting is disabled.very clever of them
yeh
UPDATE
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/mobile/wl/download-en-us.mspx
just installed live messanger from this microsoft site(a new version just released) and it works a treat on the t-mobile compact iv(diamond).only problem no messanger is included,this wasnt a problem for me because i had a stand alone version i purchased a few years back,i installed it and it worked ok

This worked for me on ProjectDiamond rom. Had to switch to GPRS for setup, but switched back to 3g after and now it syncs fine.

Nope, followed the instruction to the letter!
Also when I was using the standard T-Mobile ROM this following worked...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2422579&postcount=14
But now I’m using a custom ROM, I cannot get it to work...
Just a quick update, I too got it working!
You got to turn off 3G in the Comm manager, reset, then remove proxy setting, reset again, then syncronise via GPRS, then switch on 3G in the Comm manager, then reset then it should work!
You can probably reduce the number of soft resets, but that is what I did so left it in there...
As my hotmail and messenger is now working, im not going to fiddle with it. But if someone is still having issues could you try disabling HSUPA. Keep HSDPA enabled.
I know that I have disabled this somewhere along the way and it might be playing a factor in getting the above mentioned apps to work.
For people who have custom ROMs only it can be found in Settings > Connections > Advance Network Icon.
Post back here if you have any success for others to try...
Everything is working for me straightway whether it's the stock or the latest htc rom. I didn't have to fiddle with any settings.
I found this issue about 3 weeks ago, internet completely stopped working so i contacted T-Mobile and they said they were having issues and it would be fixed within a couple of hours, since it came back up some sites worked, some things wouldnt, my push email wouldnt work. Ended up unticking the proxies and it started working again perfectly have found i've had to do this with every ROM reflash so i think they perhaps have changed something at their end which is causing some issues.
i've been getting the same problems for about a month, funnily enough its only when boss changed account from normal to web and walk (had a 800 phone bill as thought wnw was enabled on the account already!)
tried disabling the proxy and it still fails sync'ing, the weird thing is that it does actually sync SOMETIMES.. ie i wake up in the morning and it has randomly synced once or something. so god knows what tmobile are up to
I have the MDA compact IV, Im using Dutty ROM V 1.5. had the same problem with MSN messenger and hotmail, contacted the T mobile support but they could not help me.
Now everything is working following just disabeling the proxy
But Im still not able 2 make the MSN 2 work on my laptop when I connect 2 the internet using the mobile phone! is there a fix for this problem?
when I try 2 connect I get this error: we were unable to sign u into windows live messenger, possibly because of a problem with your internet connection. please tru again later.
error code: 80072745
I don't know how it works on Windows but in Linux I have to transport MSN through HTTP mode when I'm connecting over T-Mobile . Is there a way to do that in Windows?
Similar issues here. When the proxy setting was enabled, I couldnt connect to either hotmail or gmail. When I disabled, gmail started working fine but so far I have only managed to sync with hotmail once!
I wish there was an easy fix for this because its a pain in the rear!

Anyone got Youtube and Gmail working on Vodafone Romania?

Just curious if u did, I have the 4 euros/500 mb a month option.
What i mean by that is does the phone's oulook connect to gmail account or does the youtube player play videos on a gprs connection (or is it hsdpa?).
Yes, all on HSDPA normally. And gmail works in outlook, automatically sets up as an IMAP server (enable imap in GMAIL though).
Flawless.l
Good luck. When experiencing connection problems, look if vodafone auto-setup enables a proxy. Disable it (but be sure it don't cost any extra $$, normally not).

Whether it is GPRS or HSDPA depends on the settings. If phone setting is set to 3G, it will pick up HSDPA it signal strenght is good and it will pick GPRS if your settings are GSM and/or UMTS signal is weak.
Mmm yes but does your connection manage to connect to streaming media like youtube and does outlook work?
Mine work fine on wifi but on 3G for example, outlook says "Error syncronizing" and pops up the 3G connections buble. Browser works fine though.

tnyynt - does your vodafone GPRS config involve using proxy servers? I think this must be the problem for gmail, especially since they want us to use ssl now.
Some folks are not routed through proxies and thus can acces the gmail IMAP server.
If you have your config written somewhere, maybe I can take a look at it?

To be quite honest, I never use my provider's data connection, only WiFi and the MMS connection.
Also, I'm on prepaid, so settings are different, and NO, mine do not include proxy. Did you set your settings up with Connection Manager?
Might take a look here and enter your settings manually (don't get confused by the Trinity page, it's the only supporting all connections).

Yes I read somewhere only port 80 works (which is the standard http port). Also somehow POP3 might work but pop3 is ****tier than IMAP, I'm going to dig around more on this and if i find anything else i'll keep u guys posted.
hey there. vodafone here as well. i was thinking of getting that 4 euro extraoption too but in my city (oradea, and bucuresti from october) there are plenty of free wi-fi connections available; although it consumes more battery, the connection speeds are far better and, most importantly, FREE.
youtube and gmail works perfectly fine

Wireless ON & GPRS keep connecting

Hi,
I have a problem with the GPRS and Wireless connection. I am using Windows Live mail and and set it up so it is manually synchronized! Same with other mail accounts.
But, every time I connect to the internet using wireless and then press Send/Recieve, it keeps opening GPRS and use it to retrieve new e-mails and ignores my wireless connection!!! Which is really annoying.
How do I fix that?
I have exactly the same... but then with internet sharing with my laptop... keeps using my gprs/3g instead off the wifi that is 100 times faster.
annoying
and it is really annoying as you said, it is much faster with wifi and for people like me where I do not have monthly GPRS data included, it's really annoying and costs a lot.
Earlier, I had my e-mail to automatically download new emails daily and suddenly, I got a huge phone bill because of that problem!! So, e-mails are downloaded manually now until I fix the problem!!
You can find the answer here:

Newer Windows Live always tries to connect using your default Internet Connection even when you are already online. To solve this, you need to go to:
Start->Settings->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks. Change everything to My Work Network.
With this, Windows Live won't try to connect when you have active internet connection. The problem now is, if you have no active internet connection, it will force your device to connect to your gprs/3g but will fail to work. You will need to reset the setting above to your gprs/3g connection.
yes but
Yes but chaning preferences for my network would result in not having my mms working, or gprs when I need it?
However, I have to go back to settings and change everything again to get things to work!!!! I would rather have a solution than a workaround
not working

Have you tried NoDATA with HTC Diamond with WM6.1?? NoData seems to be an old cab file for older versions of WM?
