After upgrading to 1.40, connecting to GPRS is hit or miss. When the problem occures it is normaly after the GPRS connection has been disconnected for a while, then when connecting again, I get the error "Cannot Connect". The only way out of this is to soft reset or turn ON then OFF "flight mode" (restart radio). The real problem in troubleshooting this issue is, I can not make it happen on a consistant basis, in fact, I can not duplicate it at all (it happens when it wants to). If you also have this issue, please offer any info you have on WHEN it happens or sequence of events that makes it happen.
Problem: "Cannot Connect" error when connecting to GPRS (all connection settings are correct).
When: ?????
Work around: restart radio
Note: This is not the same problem as "red phone button disconnects GPRS" ("Flags2") as discussed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=21972&sid=ff63b7f3db5fceffff1cd54fe61ffd27
the same for me!!
don't know why!!!
Does it seem to happen after a couple of hours after a soft reset?
Also, I have noticed turning flight mode ON then OFF only works for the next connection, after that I get the "Cannot Connect" error. A soft reset may work for several connect/disconnect cycles before it craps out.
Please post when it happens for you.
Got the same for a while now. Started to occur indeed after installing 1.40. My use is quite simple: an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening; in the evening it won't connect; soft reset and the thing goes again.
Did not found a woraround yet but will keep trying and share it with you if so.
XdaIIi - Cannot Connect GPRS
My XdaIIi is also giving the same problem. Turning Flight mode on/off gives some relief; buy only temporary. Compared to soft rest, this is far better. Why O2 is not providing any solution.

Norwegian devices with the 1.40 ROM is also having this problem!

I posted this before, I had the same problem with GPRS not reconnecting. Now i am able to use GPRS without any problem. My solution was to downgrade my caller id version to 1.20 build 17957. When i first upgraded to AKU_RC 20 was when i first had the problem, tried the later version RC21 and still didnt work. I tried this several times, only the caller id version being changed produced the problem. Try that and see if it works for you

Thanks to efjay!!!!!!!!!!!
What is the best way to update the Caller_ID cab? When I update, it tells me that it is available in ROM. Can it be done without doing a hard reset i.e. re-installing all over again?
You have to move the following files from \windows directory to a temporary location before installing the cab.
CallerID.dll
DisplayCID.dll
IA_CID_StartUp.exe
IA_CID_StartUp.lnk (From /windows/startup)
IACIDSync.dll
iacontacts.dll
After re-installation, change all the dll files in the temporary location to txt file. Softreset. You can then delete these files in temporary location.
Hope this help.
Chris,
I tried what you suggested but I still get the message re file windows/ai???.dll is in ROM. I do not have any of these dlls in the windows directory or at startup.
Please let me know if you have other ideas. Thanks.

You have to use gsfinder or resco explorer to see all system files.
Anybody else try this or the people who did it before today, Is it still working? I have the same issue. I just applied this fix, but it is too early to tell if it did anything...
thanks for the replies
It worked for me! Thanks very much to everybody who helped to discover and post this fix. It saved me from having to downgrade my entire rom, because I was cheesed off with having to do flight mode off/on every time I wanted to connect to the internet via cellular line, which I do often, because I've got an old Genie SIM with free WAP (not GPRS).
I found the instructions easy to follow, and I didn't even need to use gsfinder or resco explorer - I just set File Explorer to Show All Files.
Cheers,
John

This fix has worked great for me (xda IIi ROM 1.11.00 Radio 1.00.00 ExtROM 1.11.923). When prompted that certain files are in ROM or in use, simply changing the file name of the files in question did the trick. For the first time in a very long time of using the XDA II and now the XDA IIi, I can reconnect to GPRS without a hitch.
Same Problem Here. I am going to try the Fix now
Moving to caller id version to 1.20 build 17957 worked great for me. No more GPRS cut outs at all.
Working Good Here. even the Wifi reconnects very very Nice THank you
Problem solved!!, This upgrade works great, thanks!!!
Has anyone got these or a link to them please. Have just had to do a hard reset and restarted in corporate mode, but do not have the GPRS settings.Have done a search and entered them manually, but still not working. I have heard there is a cab file with them on, but I cant find it, If anyone has it or a lik to it I would be most grateful.
i think this is the one you need
Have a look at this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13498
Thank you both. They did the trick.
Hi all
While your at it i'm chasing a CAB file for Telstra Australia's GPRS settings.
Have followed the link posted, but these only relate to UK providers.
I have seen a couple of early 2004 CABS for Telstra but don't wether these have been updated or not.
Any Ideas
Thanks
Miket
BTW "GREAT SITE"!!
Yesteday I installed the new ROM for the Qtek 9100. Everything went fine till I tried to connect to my Linksys router. I has entered everything as before and the wireless appears as available in the Wireless Tab, however, with all the setting in the SSDI (similar as was set up before) I am not able to connect (even if I remove the Network Key, in other words, OPEN). Do you know if I am doing something wrong ??
I REALLY NEED YOUR EXPERTISE IN THIS CASE,
Is it the new WRT54GX4?
Check out this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48431
Run the attached cab on the device then soft reset. That should resolve the issue.
Apparently there is an issue with Wireless G with the new ROM and this cab corrects it.
Hi all, first post, long time reader
Running Helmis latest 3.2 ROM PH2OB1. Thank you Helmi and everyone else out there for ALL the ROM work!! I guess there are not to many Cingular users out there?? The SetOperator code I set was XGULA001. It did not seem to help any. Its not in the auto config. I did delete all operators per instuctions and left the one it asked to leave there.
I am aware there is no operator available for U.S.A Cingular. Is there any way to set it up for Cingular? Any hacks from old ROM's that can be done? The reason I ask mostly is because my phone under WM2003 had Cingulars MediaNet installed automatically, now there is nothing for GRPS. Also my phones radio uses ATT&T Wireless for some reason??
Any help would be returned.
If anybody needs help or would like to discuss the BA SX66 under Cingular USA I would love to do so. Lets Trade notes!!
Thank you all!
Pete
Greetings and Salutations.
PH20B1 running LogOut 3.0 ROM, with the 32MB RAM change. I was just too lazy to change it to 16MB.
Anyhow, I am Cingular customer running with AT&T SIM, which means that I do not have the MediaNet Settings. I do however use the AT&T setting in the Cingular network. I believe you just need to search the Cingular site for the MediaNet information. All you would need would be the ip addresses or the name of the servers to proxy...
I am not aware of any hacks, other than manually inserting in the network information for Cingular, which I do everytime I install a new ROM.
As for the AT&T wireless signal, you may just be closer to the AT&T tower than the Cingular Tower, but no worries, you are on the correct network...
Seimens SX66 Cingular USA Setup help needed - Use this CAB
I had a lot of problems when upgrading my SX66 too. I ran SetOperator.bat and typed "Cingular" (no quotes) as my Operator and re-installed. I then copied the CAB (attached for your use) to my SX66 and ran it. After that, I had full Cingular functionality.
WOW! All of a sudden I have Cingular GRPS MMS!!!
Amazing what a little cab file will do!!
Thank you!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!!

Today I've installed faria's aku3 rom on my mda vario (dutch t-mobile. Everything works great, but my gprs connection is not working! I've used all gprs-settings provided by t-mobile but still when I try to connect some url the phone and gprs signal drops. After that the following message is displayed: "The remote party has ended this session". My phone-signal is restored after this.
What can I do to solve this problem?
Thanx in advance

Look through the GPRS settings.
If you have an address that looks like xxx.xxx.050.xxx change it to xxx.xxx.50.xxx. The extra zero might be what is causing your issue. (don't actually use x's - I just did that because I am posting from the top of my head and those values are fine as they are already the 050 one is the one giving you the issue.
Hope this helps.
Ok gprs fixed, I disabeled all registry tweaks used for gprs. But now my signallstenght indicator (right top corner) is cut in half.
