Hi There Guys
I bought my MDA Vario a couple of weeks ago, and its great, but I just cannot seem to connect to wifi.
I have read all the posts on modaco and taken all their advice and tried everything - apart from flashing the ROM.
As I understand it, once I flash the ROM, it will work. Is this right?
Also, this ROM is unofficial right?
What ROM version do I need and how do I flash it?
Thanks so much for your help,
Jamie
1) Make sure you turn the WiFi ON.
2) Try testing with two different APs (and make sure they're not set to G only mode).
3) If the WiFi don't work with the stock ROM, your device is defective. Flashing the ROM isn't going to help. Bring it back and get another.
wifi is turned on and my router is set to transmit on both b&g.
But because I can connect to the wireless network at uni, I dont think its defective (Unless the uni wireless network is something completely different)
802.11g
Try this:
Get a registry editor (PHM's works groovy)
Go to HKLM\Comm\TNETWLN1\Params
Open the DWORD value for "dot11SupportedRateMaskG" and change from 4 to 8, save that.
Exit the registry editor, wait 10 seconds. Soft-off with power switch, turn back on, then do a soft-reset.
I've a Linksys G wireless router at home, and setting the Wizard to accept G signals is the only way I could get it to work (even with the router set to B & G support).

I believe the WiFi in these phones is much lower-powered than in a notebook PC, so you won't get the same range as your laptop computer.
Make sure you go to Settings -> Connections -> Wireless LAN -> Power Mode and move the slider all the way left, to "Best Performance"
hey guys, thanks for your replies....
Ill certainly try that reg edit, thanks for that - I went on the PHM website, but what one do I download?
I click on pocket pc, then I click on PHM Regedit (I assume this is the application I need)? I then click on download, but I dont know what version to download?
There is "PocketPC 2002/2003" Then about 3 other PocketPC 2000 versions (with letters after them like ARM, and MIPS)?
What one do I need? I cant download the desktop one because I use a Mac (just to make life complicated) so I thought I would download the Pocket PC version and bluetooth it to my vario, I might try the 2002/2003 one because I only bought it a few days ago, so its the newest version, is this right?
cheers

well I successfully managed to install it on my vario, but the registry thing you said isnt there....
I go to :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > COMM > TNETWLAN1 > parms
now there is a "dot11SupportedRateMask" but not a "dot11SupportedRateMaskG".
Any suggestions?
cheers

Hey guys - reached a solution!
here are the all the details of the "g" hack:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu]
“AniType”=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]
“EnableIndicator”=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS]
“CacheSize”=dword:00000400
“EnableCache”=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt]
“ReplStoreCacheSize”=dword:00000400
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms]
“dot11SupportedRateMaskG”=dword:00000008
“dot11SupportedRateMask”=dword:00000001
only problem is, its really slow!! any ideas on how to speed it up?

hi.
i have received requests from many guys, to make enable BT DUN
profiles on hw6900.
this means, connect internet via BT through cell phone like Nokia phone.
You can get connect 3G or CDMAx1 which hw6900 can not connect them.
now all english interface
PLS try guys.

if you own hw6500 with pocket pc200se.
go to this link.

Will this file work on the HP iPAQ 5915 running WM5.0? I want to do BT DUN from the 5915 using the hw6925 as the cellular modem.
Thanks,
Rick

hi, 5915 has widcomm BT stuck?
If so, pls check the Version of BT.
Go to BT setting, About---and then tap Advance.
You can see the Version of Stuck.
If that version was 1.7.16700 or near to this,
Hopefully it will work.
But i dont have that device, so couldnt test on that.
PLS test as on your own risk.
(If it will not work, you have to hardreset to recover,
pls make back up your date in advance)
Hi,
Thanks for this BT DUN for the hw6900. I just installed it on my hw6945 and works great. But I can no longer use ActiveSync. It seems like the install affected the communication port for the USB. I continue to receive an error. "USB device not recognized" Is there a work around for this. When I hard reset it works, but when I re-install the Blue tooth dial up client it stops working. Thanks in Advance.
hi
i didnt face to that problem cose of this patch on my device.
But i often see that problem on my another devices
in that case, pls try following way
@Start Menu--Setting--Connection
@Tap "ActiveSync Mode" icon
@Swtich to RNDIS Sync Mode or USB Serial Sync Mode
(better try both mode, and then you can find which mode can work on your device)
Thank you, that worked. I can know access the internet using my hw6945 with my Razr V3xx as the dial-up modem.

Ok, pls enjoy that!
Hi, this may be off the topic, but I installed Mobem Mphone on my Hw6945 pda so I could send and receive SMS via the bluetooth dun. The installation went well. The problem is, it does not give me the option to select Bluetooth in the drop down menu. I could only select Serial or Infrared. Instructions says that I should select Bluetooth and then select port BTC1. Does the Bt hack not provide this option or is there something else I should do. If I select Serial I am able to select COM6 which is the outgoing BT serial port on the PDA, but I get an error that no bluetooth serial port could be found on the razr v3xx. So I assume I need to have the Bluetooth BTC1 available before I can do anything. This website shows what I am trying to get done.
http://www.mobem.com/products/mphone26/qtour/6310/5450_mp_setup.htm
Any advice will be greatfully appreciated. Thanks
I might turn out to be stupid, but I see no point in doing such a thing ? what for ? 6945 has SIM card in it and can connect to internet using GPRS, which is more than enough on such a small screen ? I fail to see the point, please, enlighten me ?
I am may be the stupid one, but I know that the hw6945 has sim card and can connect with the gprs. That also works great. I normally use my Razr V3xx for my primary phone and only use my PDA occassionly. Instead of switching the sim card everytime, I just wanted to retrieve the SMS or surf from the pda via BT using my V3xx. I just tried to do the above with Indovisi SMS and that works great, so I will just use that instead. I loved the features of mPhone better so I was trying to get that working. It probaly doesn't make much sense since the hw6900 can do it all. Thanks for your help anyways.
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.

Carty..

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
Hi !!!
The issue looks like this that i upgraded my PDa to WM5, everything is working it was latest HElmi ROM . BT Wifi GPS GSM everything is great , working very fast, upgrade took me 20 min and a bottle of vine . But after upgrade i cannot sync to PC , i uninstalled sync installed one more time didnt help. I have 4.5 version of sync.
Please help me !!!
I really need to sync i have to install my GPS maps and without sync is imposible
When you have upgraded your PDA you will have to set up a new partnership in Active Sync. To do this you disconnect your PDA, open up Active Sync and then in menu File -> Delete mobile device.
Then when you reconnect Activesync should recognize it as a new device and you can setup synchronisation.
Good luck
not really, i already reinstalled the connection, i used it before so im familiar with that , but thx for trying. I sure that this is combined with that upgrade to WM5 it was working fine on 2003SE
You know what ?? i notice that when im plug in the PPC its creates a LAN connection on my computer and try to acquire IP , cant connect active sync error cant connect and on a PPC error cannot acquire the IP ... if i remember right i never had a connection , LAN connection before i installed that WM5 ... i tried disabling firewall, antyvirus , disable my internet ( its a USB modem ), im even ready to reinstall the whole windows if i have to ...... help guys !!!!
Two things to try:
Set the IP as static in the RNDIS-Adaptor (I don't have my angel handy to tell the settings)
Disable the Advance Network Functionality. (Start -> Settings -> Connections tab -> USB to PC)
Really, I'm not even sure what the RNDIS (advanced network settings) are even good for. I've not seen any less network related functionality with it disabled.
thx man... i will try in about 1 h , im at work right now, i set to class C 192.168.0.1 maybe it will work
thx a lot hopefully this will be the last post
and .... it wont work.... i getting confused..... damn SYNC

No, a class C won't work.
I just plugged in my hermes using the 'Advanced Network Functionality' and it showed an IP of 169.254.2.2. If you want to try wth that IP with the remote-NDIS host 'network card' (I think that's the one to change), go for it.
Really, I'd just disable the advanced network crap and be done wth it. Activesync is such a hack IMO, it's not worth the headache.
Yo Bro!!

Well the i just guessing the simplie thing.. Since u say u upgraded to WM5 i guess u upgrade your BA from WM 2003 to WM5?
if that true.. then u only need to change your Active Sync 4.1 to Active Sync 4.5..
WM5 n WM6 works only with Active Sync 4.5 bro!!
u can download it from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
happy trying..!!
its already on 4.5 dude .... and the IP 169.254.X.X its the self assigned IP address by the card , i normal circumstances it means on network that there is limited or no connectivity , but what have left ??? i will try ...wish me luck

Yes, I am quite aware of the IP and it's use, however, that is the IP range that activesync uses.
Remember, activesync acts like a NAT or bridge between the phone and the network(s) the computer is attached to.
I think it was the hermes forum that someone tried assigning the IP manually and it worked for them.
nope, it will not work, now the LAn connection created by the phone gives limited connectivity , on auto IP assigning its saying connected on the IP 169.254.2.2 , i can see recived and send send packets but the SYNC after 1 min of "connecting" timed out and says cannot connect.... its weird that its sending/receiving and SYNC is ****ed up....
HAHAHAHAH !!!!! 2 bottles of vine , 1 beer, 2 packs of cigarettes... if done IT !!!!!! you whant to know how ?????
Well Then..

Well..
- Async for the WM2003SE is Async 4.1
- Async for the Wm 5 & 6 is Async 4.5 won't work if us 4.1
since u have uninstaled the 4.1 and instaled the 4.5..
this is my ultimate opinion for u..
1. try to sync your BA to ur any friends PC which has not been instaled by Async => then instal tha Async4.5 to your friends PC n connect it via USB, then lets see what happen..?
2. try to Sync Your BA with any of ur friends PS which has Windows Vista.. it has built in Window Mobile Device Center.. n see if ur device can connect n sync with your friends's Vista?
3. if the 2 options in above doesn't work too.. it means your WM5 have some trouble in active sync bro(maybe).. then all u have to do just Re-Upgrade it..
maybe u should try WM6 ROm 6.10.00 made by Explode.. i have it instaled on my BA.. it it works wonderfuly n fast! n the Asnyc normal too.. since i have my BA being custumized from WM2003 to WM5, From WM5 toWM6(5.60.00), From WM6(5.60.00) to WM6(6.10.00) "I Never Changed my Local Area Connection to my device" i'm not even touch that area after all..
after i read your tread i try to see my Internet Protocol Settings(propeties) n it was Setted to Receive IP Automaticly..!
have i nice try bro!!
Glad to help You There.. Hope u solve the problem soon.. God Bless U

I can sync but NOT ALL things sync - i have posted elsewhere in xda-developers but I am VERY confuised.
Only SOME of my calender and SOME of my inbox sync. I am on PDAviet's rom (I tried xplodes but same issue), I use activesync 4.5 and office 2007 on my PC.
The only thing I haven't tried is re-installin outlook 2007. Is there anything else I can try - I REALLY NEED TO SYNC MY CALENDER (and other items)
Thanks!

What errors are you getting?
Also, have you tried deleting your activesync pairing and recreating it?

I'm not getting any errors - it just only syncs some items and not others - why I can't figure out.
I have deleted and add numerous times - no difference. very very confusing ???

Are you using Vista or XP. If it's XP, you have to go into Settings=> Connections => USB to PC => check "Enable advanced network functionality"
In Vista, it needs to be unchecked. The problem is when you do this, ActiveSync in your PDA should have an option to connect via USB but it doesn't. I now cannot sync in Vista except by using bluetooth. I remember after buying the HTC Touch Cruise that you need the "Getting Started" installation CD to install the USB driver. I have since returned the Cruise and am back to my Siemens SX66.
i have 2 att tilts. Both of them used to connect to activesynce perfectly until last week. now only one connects and when i disconnect that one and try to connect the other one the phone just charges. ive hard resetted my phone, reinstalled acivesync, change usb cords and i turned off all of my firewalls. i dont know whats wrong. Please can someone help me get this going because i really want to flash a new rom. i have 3.29 hard spl and 1.65.24.36 radio and im using Pc. ultimate v 16 rom. my computer is windows xp. thank you
(1) After you connect the Tilt that will not sync, Open Tools>Options and see if you have anything selected. If that won't work, disconnect the Tilt, and in the AS window, open File>Mobile Device and select the one that don't work and then open File again and Delete Mobile Device. Reconnect the Tilt and create a new partnership.
(2) You won't need for sync to be working to flash, you just need for the circle to be green showing that the Tilt in connected to the PC and communication is possable.
Hope that helps.
make sure advanced networking is unchecked
Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC -> "Enable advanced network functionality" needs to be un-checked. Good luck!
