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.
This is the most appropriate location I could find to post this, as I have three HTC devices (8525, TyTN 2, and Advantage) so I thought I would start here.
Issue:
I can no longer connect to my Slingbox on my home network when using my MediaNet (wap.cingular) connection on the TyTN 2 or the Advantage.
Error Message: Cannot connect using these settings. But email and web work from the MediaNet settings, so I am fairly certain the configuration is correct.
Facts:
- The connection works over Wifi on either HTC device, so I know my Slingplayer Mobile settings (Finder ID, etc.) are correct.
- The connection works using a Verzion Motorola Q. My corporate VPN connection also does not work with AT&T, but does on the Q through Verzion.
Conclusion:
AT&T has (or did) make changes to the proxy used which prevents services running on certain ports from working correctly.
Question:
Is anyone else having problems connecting to their Slingbox? If you can connect, what settings are you using?
Additionally, could someone please explain the differences between the wap.cingular and isp.cingular settings? Do you have to use isp.cingular to get VPN and other advanced services to work? If so, what is the minimum data plan you must subscribe to with AT&T to be able to do so?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
I cant say why you are having issues. My Slingbox connection works fine (actually much better than fine) via my Kaiser on AT&T with MediaNet. It works better than it ever did with my 8525. I do notice that I do have 2 separate Connections, one for MEdiaNet and the other called "My ISP" which both point to the same wap.cingular APN. Not sure why I have 2, but everything works fine. The MediaNet one is "hidden" and I can't change it. The My ISP one is visible, but I don't want to delete it since everything seems to work fine. It just switches between them (albeit unnecessarily) to make things work when needed.
Furthermore, I am using wap.cingular exclusively. If you do connect to a VPN, you must use isp.cingular. The normal MediaMax, MediaNet and smartphone plans give you wap.cingular. The PDA plans give you isp.cingular. Blackberry plans may give you neither (they go to blackberry.net).
Thanks
Can I ask what port # you are using for your Slingbox? I am using 5001 for one of mine. Did you have to make a rule entry in your router or firewall? I am just trying to determine why suddenly I cannot connect. I am going to pop my SIM card back into my 8525 when I get home and check it again. The last time I tried it on the 8525 it worked. The trouble is, there aren't a lot of changes to make. it's pretty much wap.cingular and the password.
Thanks, and if you think of anything else, please let me know.
Rob
my slingbox works just fine on att. WHen i had the isp.cingular it did not. i had to change it to wap.cingular to get it to work.
Hmmm, don't know th eport off hand, but I want to say i'm justusing the default.
Did you upgrade to the new Slingbox firmware the past couple of days?
I did and could not connect. I called Slingmedia and they told me they had some issus with the new firmware and UpnP settngs in some routers.
I had to go into the Slingbox settings on the desktop PC and manually open the port in the router. If you call them they will take you step by sep
I had the same problem it took me 10 hrs to finally find the answer. It has nothing to do with your port your finder ID at all. like the a previous stated you need to use a different connection setting to use slingbox. Use or create the my isp connection. the only difference is one use proxy settings and one does not. to be honest i just deleted the media net profile and used my isp exclusively. the only problem is medianet keeps showing up in my connection settings. the medianet setting can also screw with push email retrieval
Thanks so much NJXBEAN! I could NOT get Slingplayer to connect until I made that change in the modem settings. It works great now!

Proxy was blocking me...
After experimenting with mine further, I was FINALLY able to connect by unchecking the "use proxy server" setting on my unlocked Kaiser. I wonder if the AT&T "Tilt" build of the OS will even allow this?
AT&T Tilt and Slingbox
Right out of the box, Slingplayer worked on my Tilt. I made no changes to the proxy settings.
I have the media net unlimited plan.
It could be a firewall issue. If the connection you have is listed as "Connects to the Internet" it'll block some ports. If you have Connects to Work, it'll open all ports.
I just just want to say that you guys are great! I had a problem with sling, researched on it here, and found the problem without asking..People, u gotta love it!!!!!!

have you found a fix, i have the x7500 and my slingbox worked fine at first then after a couple of months it just stopped and i could not receive email either, i found a workaround for the email but i have not found a work around for the slingbox.
P.S. i recored myself talking to an at&t rep you should listen to what he says
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h40AMIyc_yM
Found a Fix
It cannot connect to isp.cingular, you need to ADD wap.cingular apn to your network settings.

If you just make your default connection Media Net it's already going to be set for wap.cingular
isp.cingular is the default only if you have it set to use ATT ISP as your connection.
Wow, I want slingbox now. I didn't even think of it working on my Tilt....is the data transfer extreme????????
I spent a good bit of the day today researching this issue, but i have run into a brick wall - please help me out if you have any ideas.
The issue is that i can't access my gmail account via messaging on my at&t tilt except via a WIFI connection. If my phone is hitting my local wireless router i can send/receive fine, if my phone is hitting 3G, Edge, or HSDPA i receive 'Error Synchronizing" - "Cannot connect with current connection settings".
So, i read as much as i could on this issue and found a few common suggestions - all of which i have tried with no avail.
1) When i click settings -> advanced -> select networks - both are now set to MEdia Net ("programs that.. connect to the internet" and "programs that.. connect to a private network")
2) I have unchecked "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" in my MEdia Net proxy settings
3) I have tried removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab and checked the registry setting as listed here to ensure that EnableAutoDetect is set to 1
4) I have set "network connection" under advanced in my gmail settings to both "The Internet" and "MEdia Net" with the same results
5) I do have pop3 enabled on my gmail account (it works fine on the phone when connecting via WIFI)
6) I have tried both via pop3 and imap settings for my gmail account setup
7) The connection being used is set to wap.cingular (not isp.cingular)
Please keep in mind that this gmail account works perfectly fine in messaging so long as i am connected to a local wireless router, it is only when going through AT&T's network that it does not work.
Is there any chance that AT&T has changed how they are forcing the use of their proxy? Am i wrong to assume i should be able to download my gmail through their network?
(p.s. thanks for any insight or help you might provide, i have managed to get my tilt flashed with dutty's latest release as well as my radio flashed, but i am having no luck with this issue)
note: during these issues with gmail, my live.com email was working successfully - you can always setup forwarding on your gmail account for a temporary solution
In your isp settings does it say "isp.cingular" or "wap.cingular". I had the same problem until i changed it to "wap.cingular". When it fails to connect it pops up a bubble window with a warning that it failed. Click settings, isp settings, next until you get to the setting that says isp.cingular. This is all granting that you're in the USA.
Problem confirmed for me as well. Cannot connect to gmail via the messaging app unless connected to wifi. I'm using MediaNet connection using wap.cingular when not connected to wifi.

yes, mine is set to wap.cingular.. i switched everything to use the MEdia Net connection (not the My ISP one) - which was already set to wap.cingular.. thanks for the suggestion though, i left it out of my list - if anything this can be a consolidated spot for common causes.
FYI, it actually started working on its own since my initial post (after not having worked all day).. the only things i have done tonight are the following:
1) did a send/receive via a WIFI connection on the gmail account
2) setup outlook 2007 on my PC and synched my contacts/notes/email
3) upgraded my radio from default .11 to .17 (perhaps .11 radio restricts proxy settings?) (*soft reset - may have played a role?)
i wish i had tested it between each of these steps, but i wasn't really doing these things to try and fix the gmail issue.. hopefully it will stay working
Here's a silly question - had you tried simply soft-resetting the phone? I had the same problem for a bit, was absolutely driving me nuts, and all it took was a soft reset to get it to connect and work fine ever since. Maybe for future reference...

not a silly question.. i had tried resetting somewhere amongst my attempts during the day with no avail, but obviously i reset during flashing the radio rom, so who knows, maybe that did play a factor.
all i know is it is still working today from work, so that is a big plus.

try everything in the list, and try a soft reset as well.. if that doesn't do it you may want to try and update your radio rom to .17 since you are on .11 as i was..
I had the same problem and had to enable SSL for incoming and outgoing mail under the advanced settings in the Outgoing mail server setup page. Once I did that everything has worked perfect since then.
Hope it solves your problem aswell.
I've never had an issue with Gmail and wap.cingular...except HTML messages still not working.
The SSL thing is most likely it. If you read google's instructions for setting up the account it clearly states that ssl with authentication has to be enabled.
Gmail
For those having issues with Gmail, has anyone looked into Mobipush? This service allows you to use your device's Direct Push Technology to get your Gmail sent to your device in real-time. I had previously mentioned this in another thread. All you have to do is turn on POP or IMAP access in your Gmail settings and setup your device as per the instructions on Mobipush's site. I've been using the service and it seems to work great...and did I mention its free?
here's the link...

I use Java for my Gmail account its very nice and fast with 3G. I have never tried setting it up on an account inthe built in Messaging App. I use Pocket MSN for my primary Hotmail account. Just download the Gmail IMAP software from Google and try it out and see what you think.

i had the same problem with bellsouth as my email provider when using outlook email but i got it to work on xpressmail - i still dont know what was wrong...
Same problem, I think
Gmail app loads and maybe 1kb comes down but then after a short time it errors saying that it needs a data connection and to look at the FAQ. This only started happening after upgrading to ATT ROM AKU 0.4.4. Worked on my stock ATT TILT no problems.
mobiPush looks good. I use Seven's extended beta. http://community.seven.com/forum/main.php They now support Gmail IMAP. It works great, and I like how it fixes Gmail's imap problems. I'll have to check out mobiPush to compare the two.
Funny, I was able to get G-mail to work fine on my first Tilt and I got the new one (red light of death issue) and now my G-mail won't work...

Tried setting up gmail in Messaging App
I tried to set up my gmail account too, just to see. I set up gmail pop3 at gmail settings. I went through messaging App and set up incoming with
pop.gmail.com:995 and outgoing smtp.gmail.com:465 Nothing seemed to work, says unable to connect with current settings. A few have already said that it worked fine under their messaging app. What settings are you using if you have it working? Please post your incoming and outgoing settings please.
Thanks, Kevin
I had this when I upgraded to Dutty's new rom, and I was panicking like mad. I tried everything - but nothing worked apart from wifi sync - so I went to bed. When I got up I tried to sync and worked right away...
So I dunno if you've been hard at work at this non stop - best thing to do is seemingly to let it settle, same thing happened for me when I upgraded again to V3 Dutty's (which is awesome by the way) - gmail started working after a little while (this time I did nothing)
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

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

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!
Hi,i have a HTC Touch Pro,i dont know the Slingplayer can work on the TP?Or it only work on the Sprint TP and ATT Fuze?Because I try to install the sling but it ask me the IP number,Port number and ID Finder.....I dont know where is it?Can sombody help me?And show me how to play it on the Touch Pro.Thanks...
yes it does work on the touch pro.
what i would do is this,
from your home computer (or any pc you have slingplayer installed) go to your slingbox configuration and copy and paste the Slingbox ID into a text file.
Then copy the text file to your devices storage card.
Open the file on your device and copy and paste it to slingplayer on your touch pro, enter your password and you are good to go
Save the file to your storage card incase you flash your rom in the future and have to reinstall again.
It works great...I also use the above method for brining over my slinbox id...except I have it as a note in outlook...that way after a hard reset it is synced over since I use Blackberry Connect...
Didn't work for me ...
That's funny as I couldn't get the slingplayer mobile app to work on my Fuze. I was even on the phone with their support goup and they couldn't do anything. Of course, they suggested that the phone wasn't on the supported devices list so this was their response when we couldn't get it working.
I'll try following the steps suggested above to see if if works for me. Simply putting the slingplayer mobile app on the phone and launching while synched didn't work.
EDIT: I followed the instructions mentioned above and the player launches. But it doesn't connect. Error = "Unable to connect to Slingbox". The Slingbox Alias is the same as on my laptop, as is the Finder ID. I have the "Use Admin Login" selected with the password. I have a non-traditional internet service where I am and I won't bore you with all the details, but if my laptop is able to connect and watch via the Slingplayer inside my home then I would expect the Fuze to be able to do the same via a wi-fi connection. But it's not working.
EDIT2: It's working now. I believe it was because I was logged onto the Slingplayer via Admin on the laptop and it wouldn't connect on the phone. Once I logged off the laptop and retried the Fuze, it was working. Sweet!
EDIT3: Sweet ... However, streaming image is pretty choppy. Don't recall this on the Tilt.
well if you put in the settings correctly there shouldn't be a problem. However, where are you trying this from. I know if i try to run it while synced with my computer at work, it won't locate properly due to the port being blocked. off of 3g it works just fine.

That's funny as I couldn't get the slingplayer mobile app to work on my Fuze. I was even on the phone with their support goup and they couldn't do anything. Of course, they suggested that the phone wasn't on the supported devices list so this was their response when we couldn't get it working.
I'll try following the steps suggested above to see if if works for me. Simply putting the slingplayer mobile app on the phone and launching while synched didn't work.
EDIT: I followed the instructions mentioned above and the player launches. But it doesn't connect. Error = "Unable to connect to Slingbox". The Slingbox Alias is the same as on my laptop, as is the Finder ID. I have the "Use Admin Login" selected with the password. I have a non-traditional internet service where I am and I won't bore you with all the details, but if my laptop is able to connect and watch via the Slingplayer inside my home then I would expect the Fuze to be able to do the same via a wi-fi connection. But it's not working.

Are you running the Stock ROM? Because I upgraded to the fuze as well and didn't have those problems. Well at first I did when I was running the stock ROM. Afterwards I flash a Cooked ROM and it was much better. I believe AT&T does something to stop the stream because when I stream now using my Fuze via media net it will stop after about 2-3 min. and say signal is weak but I will have full Bars.

I'm using a cooked ROM (NATF v2.1). I wasn't sure if I was missing some streaming setting or something on the phone app, but it's definitely not smooth of crisp.
Any suggestions?
From the way the original question was asked, I kind of get the feeling that the OP thinks SlingPlayer is a standalone program and doesn't have a SlingBox.
Make sure you have proxies turned off... I think AT&T locked that feature on the stock ROM, but if you are using a cooked ROM then you can disable the proxy and all is well.
I have tried every possible combination and still yet to get my slingbox to run on 3g. Via wireless, everything is great, but each time I try via 3g I get the connections settings are wrong dialog box. On my old 8525, I had my slingbox working perfectly under My ISP (as opposed to wap settings), but I couldn't get those settings to work with my Fuze. Any suggestions? Still running stock rom.

I'm new to slingbox, but it's working for me. Try going back into setup using the same computer you installed it with. Rerun setup and make sure you enable internet access.
Yes it is properly set up as I can watch it via wireless connection, it's just I cannot get the 3g to work. MEdiaNet didn't work on my 8525 and I set up a new internet connection named "My ISP" which was not based on WAP settings. My slingplayer works perfectly via wifi.

Again, I'm new to SB, but I believe that when you watch it via wifi you are connecting locally, not through the internet. Internet viewing has to be specifically enabled. I had the same issue (after clearing proxy's on the phone) and rerunning setup on the SB and enabling internet sharing worked for me.
Just my .015
Long time Slingbox user - also having the same problem.
Details: Fuze with Elite Rom, Proxy off
Wifi works (both local wifi and remote wifi from office), 3g does not.
I can swap SIM card and it runs fine on 8525 with 3g, but Fuze will not connect unless running on Wifi.
So I can't help you, but at least you're not the only one with the problem!
Fuze with stock rom, proxy's cleared. Works for me.
I'm with Zachoo, I can watch via 3g or wifi on my 8525 to my Slingbox at home, but when I try to use my Fuze, only wifi works. When I try to use 3g I get the box saying cannot connect because my settings are incorrect. When you say to clear proxies, are you refering to Start>Programs>Tools>Proxy Manager>Diable Proxy or Restore Proxy ? Thanks for all your suggestions, but since my SB works on other phones, but not mine, I am sure the SB settings are correct.
check into NAFT rom thread, he has 3 diff .cab files to remove hidden att&t proxies, then it should run like my fuze.
ps: slingmedia really sux in fuze, can't get more than 15fps...

Just a word of caution about setting up Slingbox.... periodically, it seems to lose its router settings and need to be reconfigured for access over the internet. During these times, wifi access at home will continue to work. I have had this happen several times now.

Also, the slingbox listens on port 5001 on your home network so you'll need to open that port on your firewall or use a UPNP firewall.
I was able to install mine on my stock ATT ROM without changing any proxies that I am aware of. I am using the fully qualified domain name of my home network rather than the sling player ID number. If you're using a DynDNS like thing you may try FQDN instead.
Good luck..
New version out.
