Hello,
I can't seem to get my GPRS working with my xdaIIs. I am on the Rogers network. I have the AKU3.5v2 R5 Xplode Rom version and the 1.15 Radio Rom. I have tried all settings and a combination of the settings. I found CABs by a forum member named Lurch, and they didn't work. Everytime it just says "the answering modem has disconnected" I do see the little "G" with the signal bars but that goes away after a few seconds. My eyes have become buggy from reading forum post after forum post. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Does GPRS works for you with different phone? Have you activated GPRS at your OP's network? In short words: No letter G on top of the screen = no GPRS connection possbile (Op is not offering such service: at all or just for you).
I have a data plan with Rogers. My xda IIs shows the "G" at the top of the screen. Today i tried a new older radio rom just for fun and still no luck. I have a nokia phone that i can browse the internet with. ANy ideas???
well...i think u should look up your the website of ur SP...in my case there are standard gprs setting for the whole network...i mean, there is a gateway, pass, username etc...and it isn't much fuss with a common nokia, but with the BA, i had to define a new modem connection with all the parameters given...so check the Rogers website for more information...anyway in some cases they send such sms that will configure your phone, but i think only for nokia, ericcson etc...
Try the following, I had it working before with Rogers (but I didn't have data plan, so the GPRS ate up all my money in pay-as-you-go, so I removed the setting), those hourly weather update from SPB do add up on data transfer.
Name : Rogers
Homepage: www.mymobilehomepage.rogers.com
Service Type 1: WAP
Gateway IP 1: 208.200.067.150 OR 172.025.000.107
GPRS APN: GOAM.com
User Name: wapuser1
Password: wap
Where do i put that information in. I can't find any places to put in the gateway info.I made a cellular connection (GPRS) then added the APN internet.com. Then the user pass wapuser1 and wap. But it will connect with the "g" and show the bars. then it will say "the modem has disconnected" I don't know what can be going wrong.

I have just got the HTC Mteor but I can't get it to work with GPRS on orange PAYG or Contract. I saw some files on this forum but it won't let me run them on the phone. Can anyone help me set it up please?
sorry to havent answerd your question in other thread...
when this from my post don't works:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1244877&postcount=8
just google for the correct settings from your provider!!
or just call them that they say you the settings!!
also my provider has a map on his webpage where i can check what coverage is available in my location!!
also when you see the 3g symbol in top bar you are in a 3g location!
maybe you must have a special contract with your provider to start connections in 3g area?!
just try to set bandwidch to GSM (means only GPRS/EDGE) and test the connection!!
if this works your provider maybe have lock if you haven't a special "3g Contract"
I tried to contact Orange but they didn't have this phone on their list and then they gave me some settings that didn't work?
I don't think this phone works on 3G actually. I know it has GPRS covergae because there is always a letter "G" on the top of the screen. If anyone else has this phone on Orange then can you let me know what setting you are using please.
when your provider supports 3g then your phone have no problems!!!
UMTS is supported by mteor from factory out!!
HSDPA Supports is added with actuell Shipped ROM !!!
when you only have the G icon it means you have only configured (in bandwitch selection gsm) or your network coverage has only GPRS available!!
just check the settings under settings/phone/bandwitch(?!)
there are 2 lines first band: 1. AUto 2. GSM 3. WCDMA (=3g, hsdpa)
2nd is the region... should normaly be on auto...
I just checked the setting that you mentioned and it was set to auto on both options. I tried setting to the 3G and it said that it was not possible to connect when I typed in an internet address on internet explorer.
maybe you have not 3g coverage at your location!! or your contract didn allow 3g connection!! ask your provider!!
when configuring the data connection look to the modem options there you can select different modems .. just try gprs only
If I am correct, tmobile US will release their version of the Kaiser in the future. Does anyone know if HTC will offer a fully functional (for lack of better terms) unlocked kaiser. By fully functional, I mean with all the hardware features like dual cameras along with the ability to handle the 1700 band for tmobiles 3g network.
i have an unlocked kaiser on tmobile and it works perfect. The hope is that t-mobile will purchase another frequency that works with the kaiser!!!
that's all fine and good but with the currently available kaiser (and also the TILT once released and unlocked) you will not be able to take full advantage of tmobiles 3G network once launched. I'd like to keep tmobile as my US provider while still having the front cam for video calls.
I would also like to change from ATT to T-mobile with my current unlocked Kaiser. I am hoping that the current kaiser is just a, "Rom change" away from picking up the 1700 Mghtz 3G frequency when T-Mobile brings it out.
Anybody here have any idea, if the Kaiser is hardware capable of picking up 1700? You would assume, that it would be easier and cheaper to put the hardware in there and just disable it with software.

I wouldn't worry to much. By the time tmob gets 3g maybe late 08 in some areas maybe 09 there will be another latest greatest phone

Good point...
I figure in on the 'newer phone' liklihood as well. I had a Wizard and thought the remaining feature differences (GPS, Tilt display, faster processer, double RAM, double storage, SDHC support, etc) were more than enough to justify an upgrade. I am using in on T-Mobile with the great data plan. I have access to WiFi when I need speed (Sling, Orb, etc), so EDGE is good enough for uses at other times (casual web browsing and push email).
I'm sure they will release their version of the Kaiser before 2008 if they want to reap the rewards...and, I don't think they will release it without the 3g network running as their version is supposed to support the 1700 band. Of course, their version will be lacking other features of the hardware like the front facing camera. In turn, my original question about wanted a fully featured unlocked Kaiser remains.
Additionally, to the person hoping thecurrent kaiser may have 1700 support through a rom update, from what I hear the answer is no. I am told it is a hardware issue and the hardware on the current kaiser model is not equipped to handle it.

You might check this thread out. Dont know if it will work here.
I don't believe HTC will make a Kaiser for tmo here but this variation could come here. If you look at the phones released to ttmo and att most of the light and young peoples phones are released to tmo and the more work oriented are released to att (excluding the Iphone which should have went to tmo but was att shot to bring in some young blood. just my ho for what its worth

Thanks dwella,
However, i feel pretty confident that T-mobile US will release the Kaiser for many reasons. Mainly because they have already cleared their version of the device through the FCC and there is a Tmobile manual for the device that is clearly for the US market (as it mentions specifics exclusive to the T-mo US market such as My Favs, etc. They don't exist in UK). The FCC also list Tmobiles variant as having the 1700 band and as you may know, Tmobile US is setting up half of their 3g network on that band (upstream I believe). Since that band is not used in UK (or anywhere iirc) it's pretty certain that the documentation is for the US.
Then again, this is all speculation.
My problem however is that I want a fully featured unlocked Kaiser with all bands and all hardware options. I take residence in both US and abroad (Asia). Asia is no issue as the bands are common. Tmo US is my provider in the states though (and I have a really, really god data plan through them) and want 3g to work through them when in the US. Since the fact that they will use the 1700 band is my main hang up (otherwise, I probably would have had the Kaiser on day 1 )
The wait and uncertainty is killing me...I even emailed HTC some time ago about this but they have not responded.
hey guys, i'm also picking up the tilt and gonna use it on tmobile. just wondering, is anybody using the 5.99 proxy internet deal on the tilt? just making sure its gonna work, thanks

Can you give me instructions on the 5.99 workaround, I can't seem to get it to work with any of the settings here, nor the auto setting downloader.
start>settings>connections>connections
under proxy settings check: this network connects to the internet
check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
proxy server should be :216.155.165.50
click advanced

wap: 216.155.165.50:9201

under modem, your access point name should be : wap.voicestream.com
name and password blank.
under advanced check use server assigned ip address
use software compression
use ip header compression.
Works great!!
The only thing i found I cant get to work is the MMS setting, though i did find the post for it, but did not work for me.. so if anyone has setting that work for Tmobile w/tilt, much appreciated..

Thanks for you help, my MMS setting works. Here's are my setting:
Messaging -> MMS -> Tools -> Options:
Servers -> MMS Configurations:
Server Name: T-Mobile MMS
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Server Address: http://216.155.165.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: T-Mobile MMS
By the way, these are the default settings the "Auto Connection" tool gave me.
i am pretty sure i tried that myself,but it wont hurt to try again.. i did get it to work 1 time that was it.. now all it does is sit in either sent or draft folder w/ and red x next to the envelope.. thanks for the info!!
I just got the Kaiser for Christmas, and I got it working with the HTC rom on T-Mobiles network. My question is since my Kaiser was purchased on eBay and was for the Singapore/Vietnam market is there a US rom I can load that will better recognized T-Mobiles network. I have it working for normal phone calls and I am using BlackBerry Connect on it but every time I connect to the internet to use the browser it disconnects the BlackBerry Connect service. I would like both internet and BlackBerry to use the same connections. Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks in advances
i tried phoning the tech support today, got the tytnII told them its the t-mobile vario 3 as they wouldnt understand what i was talking about....
i need someone to give me the cab for the settings, or tell me the settings that i have to do.
Right now, from kaisers setup manager, the connection wasnt working, i edited the "Username should be: t-mobile Password should be: tm" myself, nothing changed
i get the "answering modem has disconnected" and a popup saying there is a problem connecting to the gprs service in your home network"
i get the small 3g icon on the taskbar
Your post is a bit confusing. Do you have a real Vario III? If so you should already have the settings. If they are lost or messed up then go to T-Mobile's site and get them sent to you by text.
If you have the correct settings already then the message you've described is a symptom of the 3G bug I posted about in another thread.
You can workaround this by going into Settings, Phone, Band and change the network type to "GSM". It will then connect but you will lose 3G. Read the other thread for full details.
i have the tytn2 (aka htc kaiser), not the vario 3.
i ve read about the bug you posted and i can recieve calls fine when on 3g, tried the bit about chaning to gsm, but the same error pops out.
i ve used these settings:
"Choose T-Mobile Inter.
Edit
Connection name should be: T-Mobile Inter.
Next
Access point Name should be: general.t-mobile.uk
Next
User name : user
Password: one2one
Domain: leave blank
Finish"
as posted on modaco, again same error.
i am gonna ring the support again i guess.
Still confused - do you have a T-Mobile SIM then?

For some strange reason my phone thinks I am roaming when i'm not and keeps warning me about additional data charges everytime I check my email. I tried to choose my provider from the dropdown list but there are no Canadian providers listed..... and yes I am in Canada. I don't mind the warning so much but it also won't connect automatically and check my email. How can I fix this?
thanks.
Hi Dongetti
Welcome to XDA-Dev
Your question is fine, but it would be better placed in the regular Kaiser forum as it does not related to Upgrading/Development.
I will move it to the Kaiser Forum with an expiring (6hrs) redirect from the Kaiser upgrading Forum. So by tomorrow you will know where to look for it.
Cheers
Mike
Where in canada do you reside? are you close to a border of some kind?
Roam?
I have that same (problem) with my 8525, after I got the Tilt I added a second line and even though the phones have shared minutes and are billed together the Hermes still thinks it's roaming when the Tilt doesn't.
I called the carrier and she told me it was a fix on their end and that I would have to call back to customer service, it's not the phone or ROM.

I'm running Dutty's WM6 on AT&T Tilt, in Toronto on Rogers, works fine.
Thanks for the replies....
By the way, i'm running Sleuth 1.0 on AT&T tilt and no I don't live anywhere near the US border.
I'm having the same damn problem. In the morning there's a stupid triangle up on my today screen. Is that what you are talking about?
No my problem is this:
go to control panel (start -> settings ).
Then go to the connections page.
Then tap connection setup, it will give you a list of Countries to choose from and and then a list of providers below that. The problem is that my provider is not listed and that makes the phone think i'm roaming when I am not. Even though I enter my connection settings manually it won't connect 'automatically' to check my email. Therefore, I have to go in and send/receive manually to see if I got any new mail and it always warns me that i'm roaming(when i'm not) and checking my email may result in data charges.
That's not your problem, you can always manually configure your connection settings to your carrier's.
The problem is that your phone think's it's roaming based on the wireless signals from the tower...
dongetti, probably you're using fido sim?
if that's the case, then it's not fixable. As you know since Robbers acquired Fido, they have integrated the tower. But for some reason, the code for fido was being left in your sim (they don't change it to Robber's code). No other choice than to use Rogers signal, since that's the only one available now anyway.
Are there roaming charges if it is roaming between rogers and fido? even after the merger?

No there wont be any roaming charges.. for more info on this check the fido section in the howard forums website, also you can check with fido's customer service about this issue
i've been with fido for about 3 years now with an unlocked phone right from the start and every phone i've had has the little roaming symbol at the top, but i've never seen any roaming charges on it yet
Hello all.
I just got this awesome phone from my in laws that live in USA, just got it unlocked to be used in Canada for Fido or Rogers network.
Almost everything work great on fido network except i cant connect to 3g internet with this phone. I called fido and the gave me the VPN address, username and password, the DNS information and the proxy information.
After all that this **** still dont work. I've been told the only way i can get the 3g internet to work is to find another user with the same phone or the same windows mobile version on the same network, and copy his connection setting.
Can someone please help with this i really dont want to pay for services anymore "3g internet" if i cant get ti to work.
Best Regards M... Aleksander
if the settings from the service provider doesnt work, your problem might be related to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596710
Thank for post that thread.
I have looked over this thread and i doesnt answer my question.
what i need to find out is the 3gprs setting from windows mobile 6.1 on fido or rogers network and make sure everything matches up with my setting.
do they have settings for windows mobile in general? same settings for every wm device as far as i know...
Majority of the setting should be the same except all th e proxy vpn and dns should come from the same carrier "fido"
Here are the settings I have...
Fido GPRS
Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Access point name: internet.fido.ca
User name: fido
Password: fido
Domain: (blank)
Take a look here as well.
