I'm not sure what it is, but for some reason some of the programs are not connecting to the internet on my tilt. i'm running the q-mobile tilt rom, and the only thing that is connecting to the medianet is palringo. i can't access the new w/ windows live or internet explorer. any idea what it could be?
no ideas from anyone...i know they're a boat load of phone-tech savy people here, someone has to have some kind of idea?

Hi dude
more info plz!! I didn't well undertand your problem!
Are you trying to connect by your Pravider Data Connection (GPRS/HSDPA) or by WiFi??!!
sorry, i guess i didn't say that. i did say medianet, but i sure have been a little more concise. but yes, i'm trying to connect through att wireless medianet. the weird thing is, i am connected because i am able to go online with palringo and talk w/ contacts on aim, but IE doesn't work, windows live doesn't work either. i went through and changed some of the settings in media net per attwireless support forum, i'm looking for the proxy cab to download as it isn't on my phone, this could be the fix for it...but i highly doubt it because the internet was working on my phone just fine for the first week or so after i installed my ROM. now it just wont connect anymore, and i know i didn't do anything except uninstall solitaire and a few other games
ok...not much progress, but i guess this is a start. instead of getting an error message when i try to open a page w/ IE, in the status bar it says "Locating..." "Opening...", "0 Kb"...then it just stops, and nothing loads up. I'm stumped

First of all sorry, but i'm not American, so correct me if i'm wrong: "ATT Wireless" is your Phone Provider, right? and you are trying to connect to internet using the Provider Data Connection and not Wi-Fi, e.g. through your home router (Wi-Fi = Wireless but not "ATT Wireless", names coincidence!!! ), right? if this is correct, you didn't answer me to the above-mentioned question (using Provider Data or Wi-Fi??)!!
So try to set this Windows options:
Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections -> Advanced Tab -> Networks Selection -> than select in the two options your Internet Provider service, more ,if you need, under the both tweak keys you can edit it, like proxy settings!
Hope to well undertand your problem!
Umm...i did answer your question, i did say it was attwireless. I'm guessing you're not familiar with NA cell phone providers, which i'm sorry we missed, but i did answer the question. No need for the rolling of eyes. But yes, as i said in some posts earlier, i did change those settings already as per the attwireless support forum on their website. But its still not working.

...ok, we misunderstanding, or better,i didn't well understand you!
However give a look here , maybe it helps you!
Ciao
its ok, no problem at all. thanx for the link but that didnt' work either.i really dont know whats going on with my phone, the internet worked flawlessly for the first 2 weeks i had my phone, then it just stopped working yesterday. well, it stopped working for every other program except for palringo, and i'm almost certain that it is not sms based, so i dont understand why that would work, and not other programs.
UPDATE:
ok, so i tried using the media new gprs connection with my 8125, same situation. i'm not sure what on earth it could be, but w/e it is, i can use palingro and aim pocket pc on my tilt, but i just can't get any data from web or anything else. go figure. i think i'm just gonna let give it up for the day, i've been working on it for 8 hours. maybe take a look at it again this weekend, i dont HAVE to have the net until monday, but even then i can still use wifi until i get this sorted out.
ok, so it looks like just about everything is working now on my phone except internet explorer while connected to the AT&T wireless EDGE/3G connection. I can download the maps while connected to Windows Live GPS, i'm able to sign on and chat while using agile messenger, i can download emails on the go with my outlook mailbox.
The only thing that is giving me a problem still is internet explorer/opera mobile. Anytime i type in a page it says "locating...", "opening..." "0 KB" while using IE then it just stops there and doesn't load a thing, and when using opera is says no connection detected. Anybody know what this could be? I dont see anywhere in IE or opera where you can change browser settings as far as connectivity...
very similar problem
Hi,
I'm having a very similar problem. I have an HTC TYTN II unlocked. It has worked beautifully for a couple of months and suddenly PIE would not work. It says Connecting...Locating...Opening and then hangs in there for a while until it error outs with "the connection has been lost"
I'm on T-Mobile full internet plan. The ROM is original stock ROM (UK). Curiously, the "push" emails continues to work, but PIE does not. I can't login to Live messenger either.
I have reset the phone to factory settings to no avail. I have called T-Mobile and they say my account is okay.
Any idea? This is really weird.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
elkavayo, where are you located? I am having the same problem today & I am in south florida. I just got off the phone with a T-Mobile tech & he tried something and said it appeared to be a network problem - not a phone issue. Wi-fi is working fine.
weebo523
I'm located in South Florida too, Miami to be precise. Those were my thoughts initially, but I called T-Mobile and they told me that there were no outages or network problems. This has been happening to me since Wednesday 8:00 AM.
Additionally, I swap SIMs with a friend, who also have T-Mobile, and configured his phone (HTC Touch unlocked) to use T-Mo full internet and it worked on his phone with my account!
My wide and daughter (Dash and T-Mo SDA) can also connect to thye net normally with their phones, so I don't think it is the service. Mine doesn't work with neither full nor T-zones. It does work with Wi-Fi though.
The mystery continues... thanksfor sharing your story. Hopefully we'll find a "cure" soon. I've beenthinking about "upgrading" to 6.1.....
i have the same problem with an unlocked Tilt running on my Rogers network.
all my messaging apps work but not Internet Explorer.
I'm in Fort Lauderdale and just had the same problem .. I have TWO 8525's (TyTn) on T-Mobile and also a Wing with T-Mobile, whats weird, is that both 8525's are having the problem, whereas the Wing is working fine.
There is definately an issue right now with South Florida and t-mobile.
elkavayo & vr24, this is strange. It seems to be happening exclusively to the Tilt / TyTn & in South Florida with one Rogers. And it seems like very few of us have the problem. I am usually pretty good at trouble shooting but this has me stumped.
totally, I have tried tons of settings, everything I can come up with, used their Data Configurator, I've tried 3 different ROMs, including Win Mo 6.1, and even on the TyTn forum, people with the 8525 in other parts of the country aren't having the issue.
It's really messed up, and as I said, my Wing works fine, lol... but I want my TyTn as the wing is having other malfunctions. the only problem is, how can you argue it's the network when one phone works and the other doesn't. there is SOMETHING that changed on the network though that is not accepting something with the tytn, in just our area, lol.. obviously. Just no idea what it is.
vr24 - at least you saved me the trouble of trying different ROMs, which I was just about to do I did try going to a backup with no luck. Do you think that something could have gone bad in the phone that connects us through GPRS?
I guess I will have to sleep on this for now. Hope you or someone figures this out while I'm sleeping - VBG
Lol... don't count on me too much to figure this one out. It's quite the nightmare really. And it's a shame. I just purchased my 2 Hermes and was thrilled to have them and they were working, now I have very expensive bricks basically!!!
Anyways, help would be awesome to anyone out there willing to continue troubleshooting this.
Well I have some "good" news... I'll be heading from Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles this coming Wednesday, if we don't get it sorted out by then, and this magically works on the West Coast, I'm jam t-mobiles balls into a vice grip until they fix it. I'm REAL curious to see if it makes any difference.
Anyone having this problem, or know how to enable it? I feel like a dee dee dee!! Other than that, it's all good!
plz explain! i have been using tomtom for sometime and i don't have a clue on what u r talking about!
When I hit say, TomTom Weather, I get "wireless data disabled" and also with any other feature that has to use the data connection. I thought there was a way to enable/disable it in tt6, but im not about to revert back just to check. It's not even that important to me, but its good to get live info when you need it. Get what I'm gettin at?
I think it simply means that u account has no data plan included or has been disabled by service provider. If should be active by default. I has it active when I first got the line, then I had to call them up and tell them to shut it off, since then when I fire up PIE, it says same thing like this.
actualy it says cant connect with the current connection setting, to change connection tap settings... does ur say the same thing?
My regular data works just fine...
make sure you have data connection up and working fine before u try the services.
As I said more than once, the data works fine, good, perfect, 100%, whatever you wanna call it. JUst NOT in tt7. Does ANYONE know what i'm trying to say here? My medianet works. It works with tt6, just not 7. Get it? Maybe my $#!t's just messed up..

I don't think it's you, I'm having the same problem as well. I haven't found a fix yet.
Well I don't feel soo bad now....
TT7 data services are disabled by default. Thats why I'm still using TT6 (I use the traffic feature).
If they are, then how do you enable them? SHOULD be simple.... Is there NOONE who figured a workaround for this yet?
well I guess not!
TT7 data is working here. I've used the weather a few times and have activated by 30 day trial for the traffic.
Tomtom version - 7.450
Rom - RomOS v2
Coastie.
how did you get it to work? or did it work from the start..
Just in case anybody else come across this thread with the same problem as I also did. To fix it for me I had to install TT7 on the device as my original install was on the storage card.
I just got my TD2 yesterday. Been trying to figure out the settings for the push internet, but i can't seem to find the option to use WiFi connection instead of data connection.
Also i realised that the scheduling doesnt allow to set the minute only the hour.
Does anyone have this problem?
No one has any problem using this feature?
If you have WiFi on it should just use it I guess? Otherwise what you can do is setup your preferred connection not to be the mobile web one so it doesn't try and connect to the net over GPRS/3G.
I tried using Wifi, but it doesnt work. I still need to manually pull the sites.
When your phone goes into standby the WIFI connection turns off to save the battery, so unless you have your phone set to never turn off and keep WIFI active all the time its unlikely that it will use WIFI to push internet pages to you. Very little point doing it that way since you'd never have the phone last long enough to get out of the house in the morning.
Oh I reckon I know what might be wrong. You also need to change the schedules of when the phone polls for sites. You do it by day and stuff and do a start time. Once you visit each site once then that'll start the ticker so to speak. Mine autodownloaded at the set intervals after that.
Thanks Shuflie, u have a good point.. there is no point updating it via wifi. It needs to use a data connection. Thanks
DaBountyHunter: Thanks for the advice.. but i really think the problem is that i dont have a data plan with my telco.. i cant rely on WIFI since it disables whenever the phone goes into standby.
hi,
i'm a little bit confused about this feature!
i addet 4 sites to my list and if i got it right, there is a grey arrow if its updating and a green if its finished! is that correct?
but, when i surf on a site with a green arrow i can only see the main page, because if i tip any link on this it says error!
thats a total mess, the deep of min one link is essential...
do i something wrong or is this feature only a dream!??
I believe it only updates the pages on the main page. It doesnt save the entire site (i wished it did) cos it seems rather redundant when it only saves the main page.
hopefully someone can make a fix that it also loads the linked pages but i think it takes up too much memory/battery life and for example on news sites you only need the headlines, and if you want to read the article you'll have to wait a bit.
(for the Dutch, use tweakers.net/nieuws on your phone, it loads the articles instead of headlines)
well then in my opinion this feature is senseless!
quite true.. senseless.. might as well just use RSS feeds.
I still haven't received my TD2 (seems like it takes time for other languages as I'm looking for a french one which should be shipped on the 8th of May) but I still have a question regarding push internet feature.
What happens when roaming? Is there a way to disable it while on another network? Like a "disable while roaming" feature? Knowing the fees for data roaming, I don't want to spend money every time I'm going in another country...
yes, there is a 'disable when roaming' feature.

i tried that, also tried many other things but i am almost defintely sure the 'add push page' is simply a bookmark button. the main conclusion for this is that i dont get any notification of the 'auto pull' and it still attempts to connect to HSDPA when opening one of these push pages
I stopped using it because it only updates the top page.
Where are the oush internet settings on rom official rom version 2.53?
hi guys, im new here, but any how to the point, i got win 6.5 on my phone, and i cant get wifi working, its connected to my router, it shows that, and i know alot about routers and everything, its setup, and my laptop connects to router and internet no probs, but this..... it wont, i went into browser connections and put it on wap and tried internet, nothing, then i tried secure wap, nothing, and then internet, nothing, and i put it on automatic, nothing, so here i am, wifi is not working on it..... i disabled HSDPA or w/e its called because im on a pay as you go plan and i dont have a data plan..... thus i'd just use wifi because its free and theres plenty of it around.....
anybody know whats up?, thanks, the phone is a samsung omnia i900
If you haven't already power cycled your phone (pop out the battery while the device is on and leave it out for about 15 seconds. If that doesn't work you could try downloading a different web browser like Skyfire or Opera mini or just back up your data and do a master reset if all else fails. If none of that works contact your provider.
You may have to hard reset or flash another rom
well i have tried soft reset, ive reset the phone, and i had another rom, that Yonn's SPB or android one, i had OCK's and that worked but that was months ago, the Yonns i remember it worked... i think, but then stopped, then i am on steff195's rom which i like so far, has a bunch of useful stuff in it.....
but i still cannot get the wireless going GRRR....... i had opera in yonns and i do remember now that i had wireless working... but then it stopped working, so im not sure whats up, i think i have wrong settings.... and also with yonns maybe it stopped working when spb was asking me for a license and i just ended up closing it off.....
bumpppppp .....
Would your web worked if you had data through your provider?
These are just a few settings you might check, i'm on a dutch WM6.5 rom so translated the options, might be a bit different on your phone.
start>settings>connections>wifi (or wlan)>advanced>energymode (or powermode)> set it to 'best performance'
start>settings>connections>connections>advanced>choose networks> make sure both options are set to 'my work network'
Hope it works out for you
well the thing is, also i mean my actual network the phone is with, being ROGERS, is not there in the choose networks and its using a "vodafone" but, that does not concern me because, i will not be using any data from them any how, like i said im pay as you go, i make calls, and thats it, and for my data aspect i want to be using the wifi, now i checked, i got a mac address, i got a ip, but i just cannot do as much even as to connect to my own router if i enter its ip in, ive tried what you guys have said, and so far to no prevail......
So, as topic states, absolutely everything that might use data is disabled, and of course the most important one, main switch for "data enabled/disabled". Also switched on 2G-only at the moment. But still, it seems my "cost counter" is creeping upward slowly, and no calls made, nothing.
Anyone else noticed anything like this? And since I'm currently on a "General Plan" and not a "Internet" one, data is much more expensive so this isn't good, mildly put.

what the hell... more and more bugs... by the minute.. sucks
Just install APNdroid. It should solve your problem and you don't need to turn off any of those settings.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.code.apndroid&feature=search_result
That program dosent look to promising,
I had the same problem as you, but i managed to somehow corrected it, i uninstalled goggle maps with titanium backup and then i disabled data roaming i then downloaded an app that could tell which programs that where going on the net, and as for now i have only used around 50mb in the past days , and it havent risen without me using the phone for net things.

Sadly, APNDroid can easily be "corrected" by most carriers. And about maps, well, i want maps :C And as noted _everything_ is disabled that might even relate to using data.
No problems here. Been in Belgium and Germany, so It should have been romaing... but nothing happend...
why is it not promising? i am using APN onoff, and i think it works pretty well. They directly changed your apn name in the setting, which mean there is no way you can connect to your data, so you are safe from unwanted data download/upload.
I found out That maps have nothing to do with the data, but i dont dare turn on data roaming.. to the apn program, i dont like what the reviews says about it, and i dont want a third party program to turn off the data connection
