AOL Mail Settings - HELP ARGH!!!

I have my AOL account on my Tilt and am receiving all messages, however, it does not send messages written on the device and tells me that I should check the settings. If anyone out there has AOL setup on theirs could you please manually go through the settings for the account and type them out here so I can figure out where my problem lies.
Thanks in advance!

I dont have AOL but i'd say check your SMTP settings in your phone for that acct

already checked them and everything looks fine .... but I might be wrong. Can someone who has AOL please take the time to post their smtp settings.
Thanks!

Find the messaging feature. It should have a "Select and Account" screen. Click on Menu>Options- Look for your email service on the list, click on it. Make sure all your login info is correct. OUTGOING (SMTP) mail server for AOL is : cwmx.com, both boxes checked on that screen. Then click Advanced Server Settings. Network Connection: should be set to MEdiaNet or your primary connnection. CLICK DONE!
Let me know if this helps

CWMX.COM will not work for AOL
I just figured it out ..... SMTP setting is as follows:
smtp.aol.com:465

Can't get T-MobileWeb to work on Unlocked Tilt on T-Mobile

Did anyone successfully get T-MobileWeb to work on the Tilt to get internet access? I am able to send/receive email but cannot get PIE to connect tot he internet. I've setup the usual T-Mo proxy setting but is there another proxy in PIE somewhere? Is it an issue with PIE connecting through a WAP port?
Thanks.

I think therefore I am.... confused!!!

you need to search forums for tilt tmobile, thats what i had to do..how are your MMS working out... i cant get mine to work after i changed my proxy to get the $5.99 hack... i am thinking i might have to get the data plan.. let me know if you get it working...
these are the settings i am using;
Under Modem,Edit, needs to be wap.voicestream.com
under Proxy the setting needs to be, see below;
This network connects to internet, network uses a proxy server to connect, box need to be checked.. 216.155.165.50, then under advance
216.155.165.50 port:8080
216.155.165.50 port:1901
216.155.165.50 port:1901 or 03 worked for me
sockets, need to be blank

guys, i was able to get both working, however, not on the stock at&t tilt rom. first to get the mms working, i just went to settings-connections-connection setup, and let it setup ur settings for tmobile usa. this will not allow your mms to work. now go to the connections and modify the settings for the 5.99 plan (i posted the exact settings a while back, search for it).. all u pretty much gotta do is add the proxy. good luck
omar
ps..if ur using the tilt rom, i never got the mms working, and wasnt able to access the internet on the 5.99 plan. on the 19.99 plan worked fine tho

Here's the setting:
5.99
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
http: 216.155.165.50:8080
wap: 216.155.165.50:9201
secure wap: 216.155.165.50:9201
socks (blank)
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.
T-Mobile Total Internet
The only differences is instead of wap.voicestream.com, its:
internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com
And instead of ports 9201 its 9203.

i did try those settings...(that is what they are set to now) my internet has no problems, but my MMS does not... so i cant understand the prob!

I've tried all the settings provided by we3zy but still can't get it to work. In PIE, it kept on saying "opening..." and then came back with the following error:
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for url: /
Any thoughts?
- Thanks.

OK, got it to work with accessing internet and email by adding a modem setting. However, I have to switch the two connections depending on which function I need.
Under Setting, Connections, Advanced button, Select Networks...I need to do the following:
In the Network Management screen I have a few choices but only the two settings in the top choice (Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using: ) need switching. When I click on to select the choices, I have setup one for accessing the internet and another to get email.
Is this normal or am I the only one that have this issue? Its kind of annoying to keep on switching the setting for the functions. Any way to combine the two connections or have the device auto choose and connect automatically?

I really can't explain why your getting that problem. But visit www.yahoo.com and then visit google.com again. I had that problem on the iphone, don't know why.
Make sure you've checked:
use software compression
use ip header compression.
and all ports are 9201

the settings above worked to get ny internet browser up i am currently on google with the original at&t rom now im gonna check my emails and weather plug ins

They are all checked. I changed all ports to 9201 even the http and now when i open pie it says
"You do not have access rights to this site
URL=www.google.com/
Status=20(hex)"
Also it adds "wsp://" in front of any link i type in the browser. Maybe you didnt mean change the http port to 9201 but i gave it a shot. are you guys and XXwindowsXX using the 5.99 deal? and it works?

email routing issue + cannot download TM's w/ pics
Hi All ~~
It sounds like I may have found the right msg board! I am a T-Mobile customer using an unlocked AT&T phone with the original ROM (minus the bloatware). I currently have three msging accounts on the Tilt: text msging, a hotmail account and a work email account (which I check via Outlook on my PC). I am having two annoying problems:
(1) I keep getting TMs saying that I have received an email on my work account; however I cannot (a) get the text msg notifications to turn off, nor (b) get the emails to actually pull down into the account. So: I know I have a work email (even who from), but cannot read it. Any thoughts on how to resolve either or both of these issues?
(2) I cannot receive or send pic text msgs. Really annoying; I am curious to see how other T-Mobile Tilt users have their settings arranged for this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide ~~ Kim

TYTN/Hermes settings?
These settings in post four, would they be the same for the HTC TYTN/Hermes as well? After going into cnections, I notice that there isn't anything called connection settings. Just add new modem conection, proxy settings etc. I'd really like to be able to get this T-Zones up and running on my Hermes as well.
Thanks,
Cristobal

Yes, it should be. You'll need to add a new modem connection and edit the proxy settings. PM me if you can't get it to work and I'll try to help you.

Tilt Solution To Force Http Instead Of Wsp On Tmobile
Our good friends at ATT have two cab files in the \windows folder which install and remove a hidden proxy. By default, it funnels through the proxy.
​ BAD ATT! ​
If you are using T-mobile's 5.99 gprs plan and the HIDDEN proxy is enabled, all traffic will be routed through the hidden proxy and you will be forced to WSP:// pages. This will effectively lock you out of many of the sites that do not support the WSP protocol. Other carriers (Orange?) may be doing this too to drive WSP traffic.
To correct the problem, go to the windows folder and
1. run the restoreHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab
2. and then run the removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab file
3. Close your data connection and restart it. If you don't know how, just press the reset button.
After this is complete install the standard T-mobile GPRS settings and you should be in good shape. If you need a cab for t-mobile, search the board for the most current one or PM me. I keep one handy too.

So after doing that, will I be able to browse regular HTML pages (without going through proxies) using the 5.99 plan ?

i have a ty tn II and t-mobile is my carrier and i have the 19.99 internet plan,so i would like to know what are the correct settings for the MMS cause i cant sent picture messages nor recieve them..please help me thanks

try this:
server name: call it whatever you want
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: whatever you called the server name
Sending limit: 300k
WAP version: WAP 2.0
make sure you set this MMS server as default

The 5.99 plan requires a proxy. No exceptions that I'm aware of. The good news is that I've not found a page that I cannot browse. The speed isn't stellar, but quite acceptable. Additionally, since the power requirements for GPRS are low, I check email every 10 minutes.
There are a series of CAB files floating around here somewhere that have all the correct settings for each of the Tmo plans.

Same phone also ulocked for T-mobile Final solution
I suggest that you start afresh (Hard reset your phone)
then go to this link and download the cab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1521768&postcount=70
download this cab
tmobyjoe599.cab
I had the same problem as you but that worked for me and im sure it will work for you.
Oh before i forget make sure that you disable automatic wireless configurator, that stuff is crap.
p.s note to be a pain in the ass. Next time search the forum even google will lead you to the answer of your question.

[Solved] Att Tilt won't Sync with e-mail

OK, my 8525 used to do this very well. I just got a tilt and installed several roms and they all did the same thing (duty, ATT org., and DCS) when I setup an email for a yahoo account and try to sync it says it cannot connect under these settings. But they are the default settings for att. I also checked with att and my settings are all correct. I was using the 1.58 radio now I'm starting to use 1.64 to see if that works any better. I don't know if this is a radio issue or whatever but I really need help att support isn't doing anything so I'm turning to you guys. (btw I've reset everything many many times getting the same error too)

Did you not learn anything from your 8525....?
You need to provide more info if you want help.
Start by creating a signature summarizing your device's set up.
Default is not always default....keep this in mind!
I don't know what data plan you have but I'll start with this:
Start > Setting > Connection > Connection > Advanced > Select Networks > In the Drop down box...you probably have Media Net, Try ATT Wap or vice versa.
This all I can do for you because you failed to provide more info. Based on the radios you've tried, I'm assuming you're on WM 6.1. Also, you need to address this issue in the thread of the Rom you're using.
You've said also that this issue repeats on several Roms.....What are you using to configure your Network settings?
Either Network Config or your cab file is not working properly you. You may have to manually input your settings. They are located around here somewhere or google it.

I'm sorry I thought I was providing enough info. I used the network config ROM that was built in to most of the windows 6.1 ROMs but I also used the "default" settings from att. (I ment defauld because that is what att shipps)
But if you want more info here is my network settings
When I first hit "connection settings" I have in bold "MY ISP" and "My Work Network"
if you go to manage "MY ISP" it has the config for att's isp. here are the settings:
Access Point Name: isp.cingular
UserName: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
(also set to use server IP)
_________________________________________________________________
Under the "Advance" tab I have 3 choices for each drop-down menu they are "My ISP" (which is selected for the top "programs automatically connect to the internet"), "MEdia Net", and "My Work Network" (which is selected for "programs that automatically connect to a private network)
the "MEdia Net" settings are as follows (and I have switched between using ISP and MEdia net in the drop down menu for internet and get the same problem)
Access Point Name:wap.cingular
User Name: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
(also set to use server IP)
_________________________________________________________________
I hope that is enough info like I said earlier my roms is currently DCS v1.7 and I'm running radio 1.64 as a side not it doesn't seem like my GPS is working correctly since it hasn't found a lock in 5min. But I think I've found the thread to help me with that. Again I'm having trouble with only syncing my e-mail althouth internet works just fine

I'm in your boat too. I have the same settings but under media net. I read one place to use the username and password you have but ATT says to leave blank and then run some cab file for proxy info. (I didn't do that) So far it has the exact settings you have, my PIE works and everything. Just can't send receive mail.
At this point though, mine just says connecting, and then asks me to verify my username and password, then I get ..
"Messages cannot be downloaded to your movile device. Make sure you are connected and that your email account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again. "
I've tried 2 different email addresses..

that's actually the first time I heard something about proxy settings. Where is that cab just in case (I'm willing to try anything)

I didn't use that cab but I did try Cingular PDA MediaNet MMS Settingsv2.cab
it should be attached.
EDIT
I know what solved my problem, paying a past due bill.

Problem Solved
OK, one piece of info that I didn't realize was important was that I am on the unlimited MEdia Net plan (which uses WAP.CINGULAR.COM) and the PDA plan, which is way more expensive uses ISP.CINGULAR.COM apparently I needed to change any network that was WAP and change it to ISP to get my pda to use things that I guess are usually covered in the PDA Data plan.
Thanks for your help everyone and I hope this can be used for someone else as well. long story short.....
media net=wap.cingular
pda plan=isp.cingular

Cant Retrieve emails through Outlook after using setting up WAP

Hey, I changed my settings to get internet with the EDGE plan and now I cant seemt to download messages. AOL or MSN. Every time I try it just says "Error Synchronizing" is there something I can do to download messages when I want and use the internet when I want. Or just make them both work at the same time would be much easier. Please help

are you using a proxy setting?
make a new connection,
name it email
access point is wap.voicestream.com
now open up your emails options and go the the account settings. on the outgoing (smtp) mail server option, theres a link "Advance server settings" select that and change the network connection to use email

All right thanks. That works much better than having to switch connections. Now one last request.Do you have any idea how I can get my accuweather to work with the proxy settings. Because it isnt downloading anything.

nope, the only weather app I use that can bypass the proxy correctly is weatherpanel

Configuring POP3 mail from Shaw (Canada)

Has anyone been able to configure the Outlook email to pick up email from a Shaw account? (Shaw is an internet provider here in Canada)
I went to the Shaw site and changed the POP3 and SMTP servers to the ones suggested, but I'm still getting a 'not able to download messages' message from Pocket Outlook..
Thanks for your help.

Got it!
OK, I got it to work, so I thought I'd post it here for others, just in case someone else had difficulty.
email address = [email protected]
Incoming Mail Server = pop.shaw.ca (type=POP3 is greyed out)
Username is xxxxx (the first portion of your email address before the @)
Be sure to tick the 'Save Password' box
Outgoing Mail Server = shawmail.cg.shawcable.net
Be sure to untick/clear the 'Outgoing Server requires authentication' box
....then, just set things up as you want them.
Have fun!

IMAP servers are all named mail.shawcable.com good luck

I have been struggling with this for almost 3 months now, and never seemed to be able to get it to work properly, sending both on 3G and Wi-fi using the same server information.
Turns out, it was impossible. Shaw just wasn't set-up for it.
However, THEY'VE FIXED IT!
Here is what you need to do.
----------------------------------------------------------
First, you need to goto your shaw webmail and access the new Shaw Webmail BETA they have started.
Login there, and goto the preferences in the top right.
Goto the Mobile Access tab, and enable mobile access (hit enable, type in your password, and select save at the bottom).
*Note, notice the the password requirements under this menu, as although you CAN ENABLE mobile access with a password that does not meet the requirements (perhaps an older one you have not updated, like me) you will NOT be able to login on you phone with it, so you'll have to go change the password in the online help page (which is kind of a hassel, to be honest)
Once it is enabled, these are your server settings.
Type of Account - Pop3
Incoming server: pop.shaw.ca
Username - <your account>@shaw.ca *note, you must add the "@shaw.ca"
Pass - <your password>
Security Type: None
Port: 110
Outgoing Server: mail.shaw.ca
Login is Required.
Username - <your account>@shaw.ca *note, you must add the "@shaw.ca"
Pass - <your pass>
Security Type: TLS
PORT: 587
*the security type and port are not standard... so watch for this.
This will now allow you to both check and send e-mail on both Wifi and 3G.

Just wanted to say thanks for this. Been struggling with this for a few hours. Would never have found the mobile setup preferences in the beta Shaw web mail.

Configuring iPhone4 to use webmail in wifi environment
I recently purchased an iPhone 4 and had it set up for wifi use to access my Shaw Webmail account. Telus is my provider.
My incoming email works fine with the configuration using pop.shaw.ca, my user name, and password.
However, my outgoing has never worked in the Wi-Fi environment. The threads earlier talk about using Shaw Webmail BETA to go to the Mobile Access tab, and enable mobile access.
Shaw has discontinued Shaw Webmail BETA, and have launched Webmail 2.0
so the Webmail site with 2.0 does not have a Mobile Access tab.
Consequently, my outgoing emails under a Wi-Fi environment still won't send.
My outgoing Mail Server was set up by the folks who sold me the iPhone, and it has the following:
SMTP smtp.telus.net
Other servers: shawmail.ok.shawcable.net
ok.shawcable.net
mail.shaw.ca
shaw.cg.shawcable.net
None of the "Other servers" have a username or password inserted. The above other servers were just added a week ago by the retail store, and a message does come up when I'm using wi-fi saying:
"A copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient "%@" was rejected by the server because the user is unknown."
When i wait awhile and check, the message does send. Anyone know which of the outgoing is the correct one, and is there anything else a person needs to know about Webmail 2.0 to get the settings right??

I just went crazy trying to figure this out for two weeks. Both SHAW and WIND told me it was not possible. I could get the incoming working but not the outgoing.
Here is what worked.
1. SIgn up for shaw beta webmail - type in wmbeta.shaw.ca
2. Under mobile preferences, select ENABLED versus DISABLED.
3. Then the instructions on this PDF work. The forum won't let me paste links, but there is a PDF that comes up from SHAW when you google "shaw email android"
Good luck!
