Active sync 4.5.0 and Internet

Hey everyone I am really curious about how I need to go about accesing the internet throung the usb connection while my tilt is plugged in. I have read that previous versions of active sync had a feature called pass through which could be enabled / disabled at your choice. However in the current version of active sync this does not seem to be an option.
I basically just want to be able to browse the net on my tilt while I am connected to the pc via my usb cable.
Why because the at home internet connect is way better then the 3g network. This way I can download large files directly to my phone.
I have tried the registry edit as well as other methods. Still can't get the damn thing to work..
I am running the stock tilt rom directly from att. No mods no nothing. Also the version of active sync that I have came directly off the att tilt cd.
Please Help I appreciate your efforts in advance!

I have this workaround ( same situation with my X51V ) that you can try.
import the reg file or add the following key:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000
Most works out of the box ( internet while activesync ... not sure why yours don't ... could be something that you did ??
anyway ... try the reg import and report back

I didn't do anything on mine and it is able to connect to internet through the USB whenever I connect it. WiFi is disable when the USB is connected.

when setting up activesync ... the last window allow you to enable WIFI while connected to USB too ( if prefered )
or go into ( File -->> Connection Settings ) and check "allow wireless connection on device while connected to desktop"

yeah tried the reg hack before. didn't change anything for me.
I also messed with the advanced network functionality box under start settings> connections> USB to PC.
No worky for me.
Is there anything else you guys have done on the phone? Should there be any other entries under network management? RIght now I have listed
Media Net
AT&T ISP
My Work Network
MY ISP

If you haven't MOD anything like you've said ... I would suggest a hard reset ... and don't touch that USB to PC setting !!!
things should allow you to surf while activesync right out of the box !

for real OH Jebus Hard reset. Just great. Well atleast i don't have too much on my phone.
Any other suggestions?

In your PC ACtiveSYnc' connection settings, you will have a drop-down under name "This computer is connected to". Take out Automatic there and choose Internet.
Sometimes ActiveSync will not recognize that your PC has internet. Tell me if this was it in your case.

yeah my man did that as well... maybe I will try the hard reset and see what happens

ive been curious about this also. mine just seems to default to my 3g connection...do i have to disable this for it to use the active sync connection?

Nope. When Synced, ActiveSync' net is on first priority!
Regards,
Carty..

I wonder if you have the networks proxy set in your default internet connection and when you connect via as it cant see the proxy nd thus wont allow connection...

interesting i tried out the newest rom on kaiser upgrade section...the att rom. i was gettin the same behavior. i loved the rom but was only bugged by that. i went to a new rom and fixed that problem. something with how att handles activesync cant do the job.

And ATT use a proxy...

i tried the diasable proxy cab flying around...it was no good. I'm using a different rom right now. It only happened to me on that specific rom.

I would have thought you just need to check the connection settings and make sure no proxy is enabled.

regarding the Tilt and the proxy ... you could try out these 2 cabs at this thread ( 1 for disable ... the other is for enable )
look towards the end of the post ..."Sleuth255" had provided the cabs for you Tilt owners to fix the hidden proxy that is involved with AT&T Tilt
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1656670&postcount=1
if it works ... holler so that other Tilt owners can benefit !

Nice I downloaded the cabs. But before I launched them I took a look at my tilt for another second.
Keep in mind that I just did a hard reset and this is a stock att ship ROM.
Under start> Programs>Tools> There is a icon called proxy manager.
I clicked on diable proxy and did a soft reset. The problem is now fixed. I can browse the net while connected via usb through pass Thru.
Maybe the cabs do not need to be downloaded afterall as att already has them installed but thank you for the lifesaver!
Thanks people!

Hi,
I also used proxy manager to disable the proxy. Now whenever i connect my phone with activesync, it keeps connecting to the phone's GPRS (mediaNet). i look under the connections icon and it shows medianet connected, but not activesync.
anyone know how i can fix this to return to normal? i tried enabling the proxy again, but no luck.

HI,
I think I need the opposite
At work there is a very restrictive proxy that allows pie connections but, for example, does not allow to update the weather in HTC HOME.
There is a WIFI nearby that allows it...
Now, what I would like is to have my device ActiveSync'ed (so contacts, and so on are OK) while using WIFI for ineternet access...
Anyone knows if it is possible and how?
Thanks

Tethering, I've already searched the forum...

I want to be able to connect my tmobile usa kaiser to my notebook and use the net. Someone please help me... Im stuck in the middle of no where with no other way to access the net...

Hi,
The way I do it uses ActiveSync 4.5.
On AS 4.5 on the PC go into connection settings and uncheck/turn off "allow USB connections". That way AS won't try to start syncing.
Connect the Kaiser.
Launch 'Internet Sharing" on the Kaiser.
PC Connection should read USB.
Network Connection should read your choice of internet/network connection.
Click connect down the bottom left and you should get a connection...
flickster99

no connection...

do a search for WMWifirouter.cab. Works great for tethering

This forum (and other Forums) are littered with instructions. Just takes a little diligence and reading to piece it all together. Previous poster is right, if you have WiFi on your laptop then you should try WMWifiRouter.
If you prefer ICS then here's the little that I know - might help you get started. So I'm assuming here that when you say "tethering" you're talking about ICS and not using your phone as a USB modem. Are you on a stock T-Mobile WM6 ROM or a cooked ROM? If you're on a cooked ROM you probably already have ICS available. Do you have any shortcuts in your programs for Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)? How about in your Comm Manager - anything to turn it on / off? If no, then you'll need to browse your file system on the device and find the file \Windows\IntShrUI.exe. That's the one you need to start ICS.
If you don't have it you can try installing from the attached files. No guarantees, but it might do the job for you.
Shouldn't need to do any other configuring on your phone, like disabling advanced USB options from connection settings. Also you shouldn't need to disable or change anything in Activesync on the PC, like disabling your USB connection. Once you start ICS select your connection (go with USB, it's easier and requires no setup). Choose your network connection. Click connect. Plug in your USB cable.
You're PC should add a new network connection, you'll get a new IP address for that connection (I think something like 192.168.x.x). Then you should be able to browse the internet.

I was trying to get this work on a Verizon Ozone, which definitely did not have the ICS component. In addition to the three files mentioned in the post above (installed first in the order listed) I needed to also get the IPDrivers CAB file from the author of WMWiFiRouter. I simply used the contact form on that website and mentioned trouble with Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). It sent an automated reply (about 12 hours later) that contained the file. So then I installed it, and then finally installed WMWiFiRouter. I found that the install order was important! I found that inspecting the WMWiFiRouter log file (under TOOLs in the menu) was helpful in figuring things out. I knew i had it right went there were no more FAILures in the log. Even then it did not work and I discovered that my WEP encryption key was not the recommended 5 or 13 characters and it had made its own longer key, which of course did not match what I used the system that was trying to use the WiFi. Once I put in a 13 character key, everything works just fine! I also found that I did NOT need to run the ICS manually, so don't bother messing around with it. WMWiFiRouter knows that it is there and uses it transparently.

Can you upload all the files you used??i also have the ozone

Activesync error 80072f7d

I am using Activesync 4.5.0 (Build 5096) on my WinXP laptop to sync the AT&T Tilt with my laptop and outlook exchange. I have no problem with Activesync over the cellular network or wifi, but when I connect the USB and it automatically launches Activesync on the laptop, I see this error on the PC side. Looks like it is able to sync everything except the Outlook data. I looked for this error code on Microsoft site, but I don't see much details about this error code. I have installed additional SSL certificates to see if that resolves the issue, but it didn't. I have had this issue from Day-1.
It is not an issue as long as I am in USA where I have cellular data service to get the emails/appointments/contacts into my phone over the cellular network. However, when I travel, I don't plan to pay for the exhorbitant roaming charges and so would like to use the USB link to sync the info.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Is there a solution?

I heard they had wifi overseas, too. Supposedly its not that exhorbitant, and possibly more convenient than keeping a laptop with you at all times to sync your PIM stuff.

I do carry a travel router with me everywhere with my laptop while on travel to create an instant wifi access point. However, if I am sitting in one of our offices and have a LAN connection to my laptop, I don't see why I can't get my USB connection to work. I am sure there are others who need to sync up Outlook while the phone is connected to the laptop for charging purpose.

Saw this on a site, might want to check it out:

" Support Code:80072f7d
Fixes:
Note that this involves registry changes so be careful with it.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000
This site has the registry file that you can double click and modify.
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/activesync/LSPvalue.reg
This disables the Layered Service Provider (LSP) that use the Windows TCP/IP stack. "
Don't know if that will work,but worth a try.
Make sure to export your original reg key first so if it doesn't help you can always change it back.

I tried the registry addition on the phone just now and then rebooted the phone. But, it didn't help. I have seen this discussion on pdaphone forum, but it is not clear whether it should be done on the phone or the PC side. Chris Herrera's site is also not very clear about it. The file has a .reg extension. Does the extension indicate where it should be run? I manually added the parameter on the phone.

hmm,
good question, and searching both my Vista laptop and my Tilt registry, didn't even come up with that key, but it may be making a new key.
If it didn't work on the phone,try the pc, and if it that doesn't help, was worth a shot.

This is a two part problem.....
The first thing you need to do is add the reg entry to your PC not your Tilt. You can download and run the reg entry from
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/activesync/LSPvalue.reg
or you can add the line to your reg using regedit.....
The second part is changing the connection settings within ActiveSync....
- Go to File/Connection Settings within ActiveSync...
- Go to the drop down box that reads "This Computer Connects to:" and change that from "Auto" to "The Internet"
Those two items fixed my errors......
Good luck....

The last suggestion fixed it for me.
The funny part is that this is a problem only on my work laptop. At home I have no issues.
Thanks

worked for me too
...but it didn't work with dutty's...using RynCpprV6 at the moment.
I think it is something to do with my work PC..

Just want to chime in and say this fixed the activesync error 80072f7d for me too!
(added HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000, didn't reboot, and File/Connection Settings within ActiveSync changed from "Auto" to "The Internet")

Another thumbs up. Works a treat. Didn't even need to reboot.

Problems with Activesync passthru internet

I have my PDA plugged into my PC at work and I have to use a proxy to get out to the internet. I am trying to figure out how to make this work.
I have added the registry entry on my PC.
I have set the connection settings in activesync including "This computer is connected to:" to all 3 options
I have tried to set up the proxy on my PDA
I have tried both WM6.0 and 6.1 ROMs
I have tried different radios
I have searched the Forums but if I missed something let me know
Any help would be great

Here is the solution:
Open Registry Editor on your desktop (Start/Run and type "regedit") and locate the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services. Right-click on the value list
and choose New/DWORD value. Type the name "AllowLSP" and leave the value zero.
Disconnect and connect your device and Pocket Internet Explorer (and all other
applications) will start working.

I'm not 100 % positive that this is the same issue you're having but I have a weird issue where my proxy from my work PC gets put on my phone regardless of what settings i tweak. My work blocks things like gmail and hotmail so whenever i try to access those on my phone it tries to put use my PC's internet and blocks it. If this is the issue you're having read my post#7 on this link.

I already disabled the network functionality for activesync. I also did the registry update mentioned above. If I go to pocketIE it will act like it is trying to load then it will say "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later"
It seems like it goes to the DNS and gets the IP but from there it stops working.
Intranet sites work but not Internet sites. Any idea on the proxy settings?

So, are you trying to get your phone's internet source to work on your phone while connected to your PC? Or are you trying to get the internet FROM your PC to work ON your PPC?

I am trying to get the internet working from the pc to the pda.
I tried this ROM and it seems to be working now.
You still have to go into connections and set it to "my work network" and then edit it and add the proxy settings.
Thanks for the help.

Internet while connected to Activesync..

Hi all,
I am on Dutty's apr-29 rom and here is my issue..
My kaiser is connected to my work pc with activesync installed and i am unable to use internet on my device... I can update htc weather with no worries but the pie and skyfire doesn't work... the strange thing is that netfront browser works just fine so iam not sure if its a proxy issue or not???
I would like to use skyfire if possible so pls let me know what can i do to make it work.
Thanks alot

First thing I'd try is to reboot the computer AND soft reset the phone. If that doesnt work, try disabling advanced network... under connections usb to pc.
ps- in the future, its recommended NOT to start a new thread for something like this, but post it in the rom's thread (duttys in your case)

hi, i have the same problem...but I still using the standard ATT rom...

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply, I tried what you suggested but still no luck..

I honestly don't know...the fact that you are able to update the weather but not others has me stumped. Has it always behaved this way? Can you do a complete system backup using sprite and hard resest, before you restore, connect it to activesync (you do not need to configure it to sync with your device, iow just cancel the first screen) and see if you can use pie or check your email. If you can then there must be a problem with your settings somewhere, but if you cant then just use sprite for a full system restore and you should be back to where you were and maybe someone else can help.
For what its worth when I first got my tilt it would not use the internet no matter which way I tried (ota or activesync). Then it magically just started working.

hello once again,
Ok so here is the thing... i played around with it a bit more and was able to get pie to work.. but everything else still doesn't work (windows live, skyfire, etc..)
I went to connections>>advanced>>select network>> on this screen i selected "My ISP" for the top menu and "My Work Network" for the bottom menu... By making this change pie is now working but still no luck with skyfire..
Note: i do not have a data plan so MY ISP menu is empty, i usually use skyfire with wifi or when connected to my laptop at home
PS: I didn't do a hard reset because i dont think it has anything to do with rom upgrade...i have flashed my device like 47 times in last 2 months and have had the same issue with every rom i've tried including the original htc rom. Everything works jsut fine when when my device is connected to my laptop at home using activesync.

I think you would still have the problem after a hard reset. Mine has the problem now on the standard Tilt ROM. The wierd part is it didnt when I first set it up and was running the internet through cerdisp. I guess I need to look into it too, but I havent been going crazy trying to find it.
What version of activesync are you using?

Iam using Activesync 4.5..

Have you tried disabling your windows firewall?

Dumb Question
If the phone is connected to your work PC, why would you use the browser on the phone and not the work computer?
If you are worried about what the boss might see - here's the problem with that - can't they just monitor the server traffic anyway, whether you use the phone or the computer, since you would be using the work's server?
What i do at work - first make sure there are no keyboard loggers - second use the internet on the phone and disable the ethernet on the computer.
I remember an option somewhere in the syncing process about allowing income data connections - I dont know exactly what it does, but i will try to find it and post something
EDIT - it was an option to allow wireless incoming data to phone while connected to activesync.

If your talking about tethering, then you're doing it wrong.
Make sure your Activesync isn't connecting to your phone in the first place. Turn off the "USB" connect in the settings for Activesync.
THen go on your phone and open up the "windows" and look for a file called "intshr" or something like that. Open it up and then hit connect.
You don't need to change any settings for the Media Net if you're using the AT&T rom.

Well the only reason i wanna use my device and not the work pc is beacuse all the major sites like hotmail, youtube, facebook are blocked but they all work on my device using "only" netfront browser..
