xdaIIi-internet coonection

Please, please help. I have just managed to connect my xdaIIi to my wireless network, but am unable to connect to the internet. Whenever i try to connect it uses GPRS(O2 active) and I am left with a blank screen.
Any help greatly appreciated, it is driving me mad!!!!

just delete gprs setting for the first time and it would be ok. later you can get gprs setting back

Thanks for responding, but when I try to cancel the gprs it returns every few seconds.

Some applications fire up the internet connection if it is down, like Internet Explorer.
Are you sure that all your applications are properly shut-down and not running hidden in the background? ( Settings / System / Memory / Running Programs)

Checkout at Setting / Connections / GRPS Setting... manage existing connections and under proxy settings untick at the top....

I tried stopping all programs still no success, looked in gprs setting and did not have any mention of proxy settings, just class 8 or class 10.
I now get the message which says I must provide proxy server information
HTTP
WAP
Secure WAP
Socks
I have no idea what to do and think I'll just use the laptop for surfing and forget about the internet on the XDA.
Thanks for all of your help so far

dont look under grps setting that got class 8 or class 10. Looks under Connections, the got your GRPS Setting..... manage existing connections.... you'll find the proxy setting.....

hello
newbie here am having same problem cant connect via wifi to internet ?????

I have unticked the "this network connects to the internet" but still no success. Everytime I look at the proxy settings the box has reticked itself.

Help with Activesync

I am having a problem that when i connect my phone to my work PC my media net 3g quits working.
I have changed the option in advanced connections, server selection, to use media net on both options but i am still getting no 3g/edge etc. Everytime i sync my phone it tries to use my PC connection as the active internet source.
What i want is to have my phone synced but still use my phones 3g internet on the phone and my LAN for my PC.
Can anybody help me figure out why my phone's internet is replaced by my PC's?
Thanks!

Under "Connection Settings" do you have the box checked that says, "Allow wireless connetion on device when connected to the desktop"?

Yes i do. And when i partnered with active sync i selected the option to allow internet calling etc.
It has to be a background issue. Afaik all the options are correct.

After a little further reasearch it appears that when i connect my phone to the computer the proxy server is changed to my work proxy. If i over ride it to the correct cingular proxy it still does not work.
Any help on this? It's getting annoying. It worked fine for a week then just quit working.

Email Sync over WiFi/GPRS strange issue/experience

Hi all,
Got a stange issue. I have the MDAcIV (basically a diamond) on the UK T-Mobile contract.
I've setup my Gmail account to send/retrieve and over wifi it works perfectly, however if I disable my wifi connection, I expect the email to sync over GPRS, but I keep getting a sync error saying check your connections etc.
Anyway checked all my connections and it works fine over GPRS in browser, weather, and any other app requiring internet connection, just not email.
Gone through the email settings and under advanced server settings, under Network Connection it's set to "The Internet".
If I change this to "T-Mobile Internet", and then try to sync with wifi OFF, the GPRS kicks in and starts syncing.
I then stopped the GPRS connection, switched on wifi, and tried to sync again, but instead of using the connected wifi, it starts a GPRS connection.
Strange!
So in summary:
Network Connection: The Internet
WiFi OFF
GPRS ON
Sync fails over GPRS​
Network Connection: T-Mobile Internet
WiFi ON
GPRS OFF
Syncs over GPRS instead of existing wifi connection​
Anyone else have similar experience?
Thanks

I got a similar one:
I'm using Active Sync via HSDPA/GPRS to get my mails pushed (Exchange 2007 Server). Works like a charm and never have problems with it; used it for years with other WiMo devices.
Now, since I have my diamond (MDAc4 also) I can finally use WiFi, too. What I now experience is:
When I turn on Wifi, my cellular connection (HSDPA) stays active and when I turn it off manually via the comm manager it also turns off "PushMail" in comm manager. That basically sets active sync to "manual" instead of "when items arrive".
Though I am able to turn on push mail in comm manager again, as soon as an email arrives it starts to connect HSDPA again.
So basically I can not use wifi to save some MB of my data plan when I want to continue to get my emails. And this really sucks...
Only thing I can set up in the advanced connections in Active Sync is "Connection" where my only option is "Internet" -.- Meaning I can not differ between cellular and wifi. It kinda has to use the cellular connection...
long story short, dunno if that helps you with your problem now, sorry; but if anyone understands what I am talking about right here, maybe send me a pm or something, if you know how to fix that.

Definitely had this happen a fair few times, with the gprs failing to connect once or twice, and I've seen it on most of the roms.
I think WM doesn't set it's connection type correctly, so we don't get the seamless "use the best/cheapest/fastest connection available"
In fact, anyone know of any app that would just do that? As in try to connect to unsecured or secured wifi, followed by 3G/HSDPA, followed by GPRS?

I have exactly the same problem. If I want to get my e-mail the account setting has to be "T-Mobile Internet" unless I'm using wi-fi in which case I have to switch it to be "The Internet". Anyone know of a solution?

Is it possible that T-mobile are forcing you to use your Data connection rather than free Wifi ?
Hmmm nerf maybe?

Thanks for the reply. It could be but the phone doesn't even attempt to connect to mobile data it just pops up an error to say it can't connect with the existing data settings. Its not a T-mobile supplied handset although it did configure itself to use T-Mobile when I first put the SIM in.

Solution
After research and research I´ve finally found a solution. I´ll post some pictures of my settings so you can see yourself what you have to do.

The clou is to have only 1 connection for Wifi and GPRS/3G. WM now firstly checks if there is a Wifi connection and if not, it will connect to GPRS.

Got It
Just untick the box that says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet" in the manage t-mobile Internet connections app.
Now works over Wifi if available, if not uses GPRS/3G

Apps not connecting to internet

Strange issue with my Tilt... when my apps try to connect to the internet using MEdiaNet they just close out... when I use them on a wifi connection they work with no issues.... Internet connection sharing also works fine when I tether to my laptop....
Currently using ROMeOS 3.5
Any ideas?
---UPDATE----------
After a hard reset this is the current status-
Apps are no longer closing out but some are getting a "cannot connect with current connection settings" message
PIE- connects with no issues
Google Maps- connects with no issues
Internet Connection Sharing- connects with no issues
Skyfire- Does not work... keeps on checking for flight mode
Email- Does not work- "cannot connect with current connection settings" message

is
settings->connections->connections->advanced->select network
set to my isp or whatever your device have named the gprs settings profile
if not change it so it is

Also if you have at&t go to start/settings/connections/connections. You should see MEdia Net with options underneath and My Work Network with options underneath it. Underneath MEdia Net, click the option set up my proxy server. Disable the option that says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet." Hope this helps

I started having the same problem the other day. My pocket outlook will not connect using Media Net, I get the "Cannot connect with current settings" message. i didn't change anything before this started and I have tried all of the above suggestions. Does any one have any other suggestions? I will do a Hard reset only as a last resort. Thanx

connection popup constantly bugging me

I just got the TYTN II but I lost my data plan. so I only use the wifi to connect to get the data. The problem is that I went ahead an deleted the connections that was constantly giving me the popup connecting to the 3G. GPRS. popup. I had go.cbw.com as the connection and the connection reffered to the Cellular GPRS, 3G. I deleted the connection completly and my wifi does not connect to the internet even. so I have to have a connection , pointing to
4 options:
Bluetooth
Cellular Line
Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Hayes Compatible on COM1:
I select the Cellular and I constantly get popups saying cannnot connect .
I dismiss, but everytime the EMAIL system check email (SEVEN) it pops up when there is no wifi connection. If I connected to wifi no problem and I get no popup. I tried changing it to hayes comp and it noww pops up the username pwd thing. So how can I have a connection
Actually I have to have two.l
1 for internet
1 for Bluefire VPN
then each connection has to has a modem and that is where I am getting stuck.....
is there a way to have 2 connections, and have a null modem or something etc. so I don't know how to keep the internet working via wifi and not have the popups.

go to Star --> Settings --> connections -->Advanced --> Select Networds
then, you select a connection that has nothing with any conection, just like "my ISP" or "my word network" or create a new conection and give it no modem
I guess it will stop the popups conection you have when trying to connect to the internet.
