Has anyone been able to get onto AT&T's (Cingular's) Streaming video site with their unlocked TyTN II here in the States?
http://cingularvideo.cingular.com/
It does not detect the phone as a 3D phone, or so it says.
I had no problems getting to the http://device.home/ page though.
I just get a blank, white screen.
doesn't work for me either... Same error. Not a 3G phone.

isn't there a reg hack where you trick the the CV side into thinking you have a Samsung Blackjack, which is a supported device?
This link has a 8525.cab that allows you to get technical difficulties (for me at least, i don't have wireless.cingular.com:80 set as proxy)

shogunmarks cab with realplayer could be your huckleberry too

I dont remember the exact change (been a while) but yeah look in the Hermes forum....also you will find MANY threads so look for the newer ones as ATT and WM6 went through stages of what works for this. It is a PIE issue.
Read into the first dozen posts or so:
I don't live in a 3G area so I can't test...

I got it too work, no problem. Below are my instructions.
TyTN II Users
Here are the instructions for access MediaNet and Cingular Video, or just about any at&t/Cingular link just like on the Tilt.
It’s really simple to access MediaNet. Even on at&t branded phones you have to switch from My ISP to MediaNet so you can access the MN home page or Cingular video. Here is how you do it.
Go to START, SETTINGS and select CONNECTIONS.
In the connections, select CONNECTIONS Icon.
At the bottom, select ADVANCED tab.
You will see a SELECT NETWORKS option.
Under Network Management, change the first option for MY ISP to MEDIANET.
Now click ok and reselect TASK (bottom left tab). Now your Connections now say MediaNet with a proxy option below it. We need to verify the proxy info is correct.
Select edit my proxy server, then select Advanced. You will see a window with server/proxy info. The first one is HTTP. It should have the following (wireless.cingular.com:80). If it doesn’t, select HTTP and enter the info. Now check SOCKS. It should have (LOCALHOST:1080). Again, enter it if needed.
Now you’re done. You only had to do this one time. When you done with MediaNet, all you do is switch back to MY ISP for normal surfing.
Before you continue, you have to make a change in your registry so that the proxy knows your phone as a branded phone. I choose the Tilt for this.
If you know how to use a registry editor, then look for this entry on you phone.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent]
"CustomBase"="HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0"
You need to change the CustomBase to HTC-8900/1.2 Mozilla/4.0
This is what is listed for the Tilt
Save your settings and that’s it. By changing that info on my TyTN II, I am now able to access Cingular Video and MediaNet home page. I had to change my connection from My ISP to MediaNet so it would go through the Proxy.
I can now access my account information and a bunch of other areas I wasn't before on my TyTN II.
Cv http://cingularvideo.cingular.com
MN http://device.home
Note: In order to play the videos, you can download a PocketPC version of Real Player since the files are in RM format.
Does your HTTP setting stay?
Whenever I set the http to wireless.cingular.com I can then get to the CV but then after a while the screen says it cannot connect to the internet. I went back to the http setting and learned the http setting to wireless.cingular.com is not there anymore. Looks like it doesn't want to stay there.
I changed my registry to make it think I am using an AT&T Tilt instead of the HTC TyTN II.
Can anyone help?
Got It Working
I only had to do this on my HTC ADVANTAGE...
If you know how to use a registry editor, then look for this entry on you phone.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent]
"CustomBase"="HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0"
You need to change the CustomBase to HTC-8900/1.2 Mozilla/4.0
MEdia Net Proxy info
I believe that the proxy info for the MEdia Net as ISP is hard coded into the ROM as it was for the Hermes.
So all you would really need to do is revise the "model" info for PIE in the registry to what they said earlier.
Do you need to do something to get RealPlayer to stream the video? I'm able to get to the video pages, but when I try to play them, they download instead (wow, there goes all my RAM!)
I did find that this only works in IE, my Opera browser still gives the error page for Cingular Video.
Read what I posted here. http://www.mobileplanet.com/ft.aspx?k=99281
When you select a video to play, it downloads a video.ram file, which contains nothing but a URL. Real Video opens this video.ram file, reads the internet URL, and then plays the video from that URL.
Note: Each time you select a video from the web site, it'll download and overwrite the last video.ram file you downloaded/saved.
Okay, changing the network settings on RP seems to have fixed it.Thanks for the great guide!

Check your e-mail accounts. POP/IMAP accounts allow you to set the connection they will use. If they don't match "Media Net" and go out to check e-mail, you'll get this error because the mail doesn't think the network's available.
There's also a setting in RealPlayer to specify the network that I had to manually change. Once I did all that, I was watching The Colbert Report clips on my phone.
ha im an idiot i was getting the temp difficluties screen but i was connected to wifi took it off and im fine that was dumb but i just tried a video and got failed to connect! lol well ill see if i did somethign else dumb lol
switched the real player settings to mn and were all good
That fix worked for me! I am able to surf/check e-mail while using the MediaNet connection - is there any real need to switch connections all the time? It seems about as fast as my non-proxy connections, but perhaps it isn't.
i can get the list of videos playingm, but when i click on it to watch it, it says " can not connect" real player......how can i change this
any still having problems with real player here u go
Go to ur tmp-file folder (normally "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp\"
u will find quite a lot of folders in there, but if u search (f3) for files ending with *.cab there will pop one file named:
"realplayer.cab" ^^
copy it to ur ppc by using active sync
this worked for me hope for u too
I have tried all of these things and it still tells me the clip is unplayable.
Hi guys - need some help.
Been following the guide on how to get Vodaphone Live to work on the HTC branded TytnII.
Done the registry editor changes to it now appears to be an Nokia N95... but every time I try to copy the Browsers.dll file across to the windows directory I get a write permissions error.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Tony
Try using Resco Explorer or Total Commander to copy "browser.dll" to \Windows...
I think the built-in file explorer will give you an error, but those two should allow you to copy it over.

Hiya this is the guide I used:
http://www.modaco.com/Vodafone-Live-Settings-t259142.html
I tried the settings in the thread Wise1 gave but it didn't work. Has anyone got vodafone live to work on the TyTnII?
Use the cab in here...
It uses the same browser.dll and reg settings as mentioned in the guide, but only takes two seconds (and a soft reset).
Oh, and always remember that you have to connect to the internet via the *WAP* settings before you can get on to Vodafone Live! - you'll get an error if you're connected via the "Internet" settings.
Enjoy!
It Worked!!!!
Thanks Sub69 it worked. I had spent hours trying to get Mobile TV.
Just thought I'd add one note though for those people that download the cab and then expend the Internet browser to work.
Once you have installed the cab go to START, Settings, Connections, then click on Connections icon. Click on Advanced and Select Networks. On programs that automatically connect to the Internet, select Contract WAP from the dropdown menu.
Next goto Internet Exployer and type http://live.vodafone.net. It should then work.
p.s. turn off WiFi as this will stop internet streaming on vodafone live
Thank you for this...
This worked perfectly for me, although I had to enter wsp://live.vodafone.com before it loaded the vodafone live! homepage (http:// at the start didn't work).
Amazing isn't it how Vodafone happily sell Windows Mobile devices but don't support them with Vodafone live and Pocket IE!
Personally, I use: http://live.vodafone.co.uk but as long as it all works, that's the main thing!
And yes, you must be connected via the *WAP* settings otherwise you get a "service is not responding at this time" error.
Bit of a pain that - I've tried all sorts of fiddling with the exception list etc. and I just can't get it to switch connection settings automatically when navigating to the Vodafone pages.
app to devellop...
If a dev guys could write a little apps with two big button to switch to :
* Vodafone Live wap
* Defaut internet
it's would be nice if you can setup within the applic 2 network config something like:
Button1(I):
Internet connect with : ....
Work connect wit : ....
Button 2(WAP):
Internet connect with : ....
Work connect wit : ....
and an option to start PIE to another web page ... with button 2...
Still not working...even with the .cab
Thanks guys...I'm another HTC TYTN ii user and I got all excited reading this thinking I'd finally found the fix (I hate Vodafone for selling me the Vodafonelive/MobileTV package and then not supporting me!!). I've loaded the .cab and followed the instructions for the reset. I'm also using WAP to now try and access the vodafone live sites...but no joy!!! :-( The following errors occur on each respective 'potential' Vodafone live page.
http://live.vodafone.co.uk - Gives me the error message: Bad Gateway - The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. Additionally, a 502 Bad gateway error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
http://live.vodafone.com - This must timeout in some other way because I get an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later.
http://live.vodafone.net again an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
wsp://live.vodafone.net again an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
wsp://live.vodafone.com This must timeout in some other way because I get an IE initiated message saying The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. check the connection and try again later.
wsp://live.vodafone.co.uk
Can someone please advise if I need to do anything else...or can you think of anything else that I can try???
By the way...I do at least get the EXCEPTIONS working out in Connections...By inputting the above sites into EXCEPTIONS, they do connect over WAP rather than IS(3G).
Pleeeeeease help! Cheers.
The cause is just your tricks to use exception...! Don't try to use it, even if it connect right...do a manual connect you will see the difference
I got those sorts of error messages when I was trying to work out how to use the exception list too. Very long "loading" times, followed by IE timeout errors.
Should work fine if you set your connections so that the "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet" are using the "Contract WAP" settings...
Same here?!

Same here?! Kaiser (Vario III) with Dutty´s Kaiser Final 2 (TouchFlo). Running fine.
What happened:
Try to establish internet connection. "wap.vodafone.de" (without Proxy)
- Vodafone Mail works fine (POP)
- IE (only http://www.vodafone.de) works fine
- Every other page (also wsp://live.vodafone.de) The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again.
Add Proxy 139.007.029.001 like it is written in some "Threads":
- Vodafone Mail --> did not work any longer. Sync error (Could not establish connection)
- No IE connection is possible.
Any idea?
Thanks. Bye.
Reversing the Vodafone cab file
Hi Sub69
I have been able to use Vodafone Live TV fine on my TyTn II for sometime but recently I wanted to look on a site that won't work as it said that my phone had been detected as a Symbian S60 unit and wanted me to download a .sis file which obviously won't work on the TyTn II. Have you got a cab file that does the reverse of the vodafone Live cab file and reverts the TyTn back to a WM6 device as far as some programs are concerned. I will then be able to toggle between the 2 as and when I need to.
Thanks
Essential processes for AT&T Tilt Users after each rom flash
I know this has been mentioned thousands of times throughout this forum yet n00bs often need assistance fixing their hardware keyboards, email, HTC weather, quick gps, and so on after they flash a new rom for the first time.
While hanging out in Bansville for a couple of days I realized I have been answering the same questions continuously. This is a mini text tutorial, which offers simple fixes for imperative AT&T settings.
So you installed a version of hardspl, flashed a new rom, and performed a hard reset. What next? Well primarily in all probability, you want to make sure the clock settings are in am and pm format and the date is set to m/d/y. To change your clock settings follow this navigation
Start>settings>system>regional settings>time tab>time style drop down set to h:mm:ss tt
To change your date setting:
Start>settings>system>regional setting>date tab> select the date style of your choosing and select ok.
Next, I like to restore my files such as my appointments, contacts, text messages, etc. I personally prefer to use PimBackup. Below is a .zip file for PPCPimBackup. It is an uncomplicated program to use and a lecture is unnecessary to navigate throughout this application, as it is straightforward.
After I restore my files, it is time to inaugurate the Tilt keyboard fix, which repairs your slide-out QWERTY keys to be mapped correctly. For example, without this fix Fn+W will appear as ! opposed to @. Below is the cab file you need to install to remap the keys appropriately. Following the installation of this cab file, perform a soft reset.
The next thing I usually do is correct my connection settings. First, I install ATT_Settings.cab, which you can find below. Then I navigate to the following:
Start>settings>connections>connections>select the advanced tab>select networks>Change both drop downs to Media Net> select edit on both drop downs>proxy settings tab>uncheck everything for both media nets that you changed>then hit ok or x when you are finished.
At this time, I set up my email. However, remember NOT to save your password, you will do this in the following step. If you are using HTC HOME, most likely you are, select the little envelope and create a new account. You can find your email settings by using google if you are using pop3 or whatever.
Next, after I set up my email without saving the password, I install removehiddenproxy.cab, which you can find below. This cab file is important as it allows your pop3 email account’s password to save without adding extra characters, allows for your quickgps to function properly each time, and it also allows you to use HTC Home Weather without getting a connection failure. So install this cab then go back to the email you just set up, edit the account setup, enter your password, and save it. Now, go back to your today screen and tap your weather tab. Now tap Select City and select your city (*Note there are a few patches available to select your town if you do not live in a big city). Anyhow, notice the menu button where your right softkey is, select menu and turn your temperature scale to Fahrenheit and select done.
I suggest setting up your WiFi at this time too.
Well this is my mini tutorial for a basic setup on your AT&T Tilt after you flash a new rom.
Have Fun Flashing and Take Care.
*Special thanks to the creators of these cab files and JimmyMcgee for teaching me the basics.
Am I missing something too?
Is there something to do regarding getting a reasonable GPS fix after flashing newer 6.1 roms or is it a known problem. I keep flashing down to older 6.0 roms with 1.27.14.09 radio because of the faster GPS fix. I would love to use the newer roms but GPS fix time is a deal breaker for me. To save you some time I use SPL 3.28 with 6.0 roms and 3.56 with 6.1 roms. I bounce between Q-mobile and RomEos roms now that we lost dutty. Ive tried all the newer radios and personally they all stink for GPS. Sorry about your brief ban and welcome back, I need your wisdom
*cough* sticky
AWESOME. I keep saying I need to: Start fresh, get NetCF 3.5, get a light rom. But it all seems so complicated to go from current configuration to start over completely, but this will help a lot! Thanks! Now to find the time and the 'right' ROM.
Thanks very much for the reminders, and for the CABs. I flashed my first 6.1 ROM last night, and forgot all about the hidden proxy!
I agree that this really needs to be a sticky...
This is a good tutorial, but here is a good side note to add.
By removing the hidden proxy (which ya do with the removehiddenproxy cab), Tilt users won't be able to get to media net (http://device.home or http://home) or cingular video as the hidden proxy is needed for those.
Then they should just use the Restore Proxy, and that will allow MEdiaNet.
Proxy Manager has both in it.

Did you try 1.71.09.01 ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410953
Been having the same issue and finally I think got a break. Tried about 10 SR's and the lock times are steady inside the house.
BTW using DK2
does windows mobile have a localhost file like windows? would remapping those to their needed servers allow the bypassing of the proxy?

I downloaded your PPCPimBackup zip file but when I attempted to open it I received the following prompt: "The central directory was not located . . ." etc.
Thanks for the post BTW. Very helpful and informative.

you were unable to open the zip file? I'll check it out and reupload it if necessary.
edit: works ok here my friend. Unzip the file to your desktop and move it to your storage card then run the program hopefully it works for you.

I deserved the brief ban.
Anyhow, I noticed that when running 6.1 roms with the Tilt you need an application such as HTC GPS Tool or GPS Test, to open your internal gps, prior to opening your GPS Software.
These are the steps I use to utilize a GPS Fix after each soft reset:
1) download latest updates for quickgps
2) Open GPS Tool>com 4>baud 4800>Hot Start>Then click Open and wait like 30 seconds
3) Open TT7
*If you fail to get a fix after following these steps close all programs and repeat. Eventually you should be getting fixes within seconds.
I've attached GPS Tool for you, good luck.
What exactly does the remove hidden proxy cab do on AT&T Tilts? If you go into your connection settings and uncheck the proxy server- is that the same thing or something different than the cab file does?
Hey Red,
I attached an ATT settings cab which does not enable the proxy by default, and also enableds creation mode in MMS settings. I thought it might be helpful for your thread here. Also, it may seem too advanced for beginners, but i have a thread started here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418468
This has a step by step guide to how to create an xml file using Schap's Advanced Config 3.0, which can be used to provision all of your advanced config preferences during your UC setup. This tool has really made it very easy to do reduce the amount of work that goes into flashing.
I also attached a cab for total commander, a free, more full featured file explorer; gps test, another gps tool; and advanced config 3.0. Hope it helps.
Thanks... this is a great thread!!!

It removes a HIDDEN proxy, one that you can't remove without a cab. Without it enabled you can't connect to medianet home, and some other things. Most users like to disable it for a myriad of reasons, one of which is that it causes you to be unable to browse while connected to your laptop.
The box that you check in connections is a separate issue, and i think that is actually just old settings, i'm not sure, since even on the AT&T website it tells you no not to have that checked.

Awesome. So, if I run the cab and remove the hidden proxy- can I then tether my laptop (connect to the net using the Tilt's data)- without getting caught by AT&T? Or is there more to tethering without getting caught?
Hello guys n gals,
I have been searching for an answer to this (google, many times)
I cannot get my ATT Tilit w/6.1 to act as an internet connection for my Laptop.
I disable Activesync, go into the Wmodem program, tell it to start, and my computer sees it as a Palm Treo Modem I have to dial out on. According to the program description, I should be able to use the Phone to just "share" its connection. Is this an issue with 6.1? Is there someting I have to enable that wonderful ATT does not allow me to use?
I thank you all in advance for your help. Like I said i have googled a few times and nothing comes up that helps me. They all point to a program called Internet Sharing, which i dont seem to have on my tilt. I suspect this is done intentionally by ATT but hey, I gotta ask first. Help????????
Google is indeed my friend!!! LMAO!! its 4 am here in NYC and I finally found it. Now forget everything I said above!! I just have to figure out how to pin it to my programs menu or start menu! for that i am asking for your help. I am too tired to do anyore googling tonight, err, today, or whatever it is now.

It's there. The file you are looking for is entitled "intshrui.exe". It is located in the \Windows\ directory of your device. You may need to enable "view all files" for it to be visible. Once it is visible, tap and hold on it. Select copy, and then browse to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and tap and hold a blank space. Select "Paste Shortcut". After the shortcut is created, tap and hold on it, and rename it to "Internet Connection Sharing", or whatever you so desire. This is the application you will be using to enable ICS between your desktop computer, and telephone. Be sure to use wap.medianet as the access point. isp.cingular will not work if you are only on a Media Net plan. (if you have a dedicated tethering plan, it is fine to use isp.cingular if you so desire).
I don't have the ATT stock ROM on my phone any longer, but in the WModem application, there is a options menu. There is a item labeled "Configure" IIRC. Select this option, and uncheck, "Choose an access point automatically". Change isp.cingular to read wap.cingular, and save it. Restart your device. You should now be able to use your PDA as an internet gateway. Be sure you have installed either ActiveSync or WMDC on your computer. And the awnser to your inquiry regarding ATT doint it on purpose is "Yes". The phone is fully capable of tethering, but ATT wants to charge you $60/mo for the ability to use technology that already exists in your phone.
Other files of interest:
HSDPASwitch.exe
FieldTest.exe
CSDType.exe
Yep, At&t doesn't add the shorcut to ICS on their roms, its in the windows folder.
Also a not of caution, its suggested that you remove the proxy from medianet while you tether. There's stories of people getting caught tethering without the tethering plan and ending up being charged per kb on their bill (leading to a phone bill around and above $1000!).
I always make sure i've disabled the proxy, actually only time its on is to use cellular video, and I've been tethering without the tethering plan for as along as i can remember and never been charged per kb on my bill.
To disable the proxy look for a cab named removehiddenproxy and then go to start settings, connections tab on the bottom, then connections icon. advanced tab on bottom, select networks, tap edit under the first drop down box (MEdia Net should be selected) then proxy settings tab on bottom, and uncheck the second box "This network uses a proxy server to cnnect to the Internet"

Thanks guys for the info, now is it best to search for this cab via active sync on my PC because i don't know where to find the search program on the Kaiser to just search for the cabs and find the "removehiddenproxy" cab......I will find it this way........thanks again for the help....both of you. This beats staying in Hotels and paying for their internet connection!!
I have an unlocked T-mobile MDA Compact Iv (aka Touch Diamond) which is now on O2 with a web bolt on. I've configured it as per the instructions from O2 but I can not get the internet to work.
If I select IE, input a web address it says 'cannot connect'.
It does come set up with T-Mobile Web N Walk and when I go into connection settings it says T-Mobile Internet 'this connection is pre-configured and can not be modified' but it does allow me to add a new modem connection (which is what the O2 instructions say to do).
I'm guessing its trying to use the pre-configured T-mobile settings. How can I get it to use the new O2 connection I've just set up?
try this (see attached cab) it from my o2 ignito!
there is a cab on the forums somewhere ! i cant rememer the exact name its something like "setup operator" or "operator config" just do a search
oh yeah im assuming yopur in the uK with that cab
You may wish to look at the link in my signature if you're using the HSDPA (3G) connection from o2 UK.

Thanks. Can I install that straight on to my phone. Its still running the original T-mobile themed ROM. Should I back anything up first or will it just install a new app (which app is it).
I've found this on the forum -
Advanced Configuration Tool 2.1.0.0 [cab, 396 KB]
http://htc-diamond.sosref.com/downlo...ol_2.1.0.0.cab
Was this the one you were refering to.
dont bother with that cab just tried it on mine ! installs but doesnt work
the other point, No im not refering to advance config! i wll try to look for it again! in the meantime may be some else can find it for you
Managed to get it working.
If you go into Settings-> Connections->Connections
It say 'T-Mobile Internet. This connection is pre-configured and can not be modified'. You then have 'My Work Network' which is were I added the O2 settings but this wasn't working.
If you click the Advanced Tab and then 'Select Networks' the first question is 'Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using -' and there is the choice of T-Mobile Internet (the default) and my Work Network. By changing this to 'My Work Network' it will pick up the O2 connection I have added under Work Network getting round the pre-configured T-Mobile settings.
