Hello all. I have successfully installed BB Connect 4.0.84 on my Kaiser and it is up and running...both my BES and BIS accounts. Fairly smooth.
Question - whenever I suff the Internet or update my RSS feeds with Insight, it kicks the BB Connect "off" (disconnects) and uses MediaNet. Then I have to go in and "force" BB Connect back on. A bit of a PITA. I have an unlimited BES plan from AT&T...do I need to set the Connection types to be something else now for these other programs that need to access the Internet?
Any help you could provide with you greatly appreciated.
Thanks!,
Adam
yes go into the connection settings. then go to advanced and select networks and set both to My Isp or which ever one your BES\BIS connects to.
There is a new one now (not just MediaNet) tha is called "My Blackberry" but when I select that one none of the other Apps connect to the internet. Once when I select MediaNet do they connect. They actualyl disconnect the BBerry,connect themselves, and then a bit later the BBerry appears to re-connect on its own....so this may work out to be ok.
Thanks - much appreciated.
welp sorry to say bud thats how that is going to work then... BES must use its own network settings and the MediaNet for internet uses another sorry your stuck unless entering in the settings for wap.cingular by hand and not using MediaNet work for BBC
I too have BB Connect installed on my Kaiser. I am able to get emails successfully over Blackberry and gmail. However, I cannot use Internet explorer over MediaNet. GoogleMaps, the weather plugin, QuickGPS, etc can all get the data they need when connected through MediaNET but IE will not load any webpages.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? There are no options to config connections within IE and the connection within settings seems to be correct (how else would the other applications be able to use MediaNET?).
Note:
I can launch BIS for internet explorer and use the Blackberry connection instead of MediaNET. Obviously though this is not optimal as BIS has lmited sites, low res pictures, etc.
This is not really in the right forum. THere are a couple of BBC threads in the other Kaiser forum that address your question directly. Go there and search for blackberry. You'll find them.
issue kaiser w/ bbconnect
Hello,
I have a kaiser and the bbconnect installed on it but when I want to activate it, all my today plugins disappear and I can't find them in the today setup anymore.
Does anyone have an idea?
I'm in France but I don't think the issue comes from that.
I need it for my job and at the moment i'm totally held so please help me if you can.
Thanks in advance
I spent a good bit of the day today researching this issue, but i have run into a brick wall - please help me out if you have any ideas.
The issue is that i can't access my gmail account via messaging on my at&t tilt except via a WIFI connection. If my phone is hitting my local wireless router i can send/receive fine, if my phone is hitting 3G, Edge, or HSDPA i receive 'Error Synchronizing" - "Cannot connect with current connection settings".
So, i read as much as i could on this issue and found a few common suggestions - all of which i have tried with no avail.
1) When i click settings -> advanced -> select networks - both are now set to MEdia Net ("programs that.. connect to the internet" and "programs that.. connect to a private network")
2) I have unchecked "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" in my MEdia Net proxy settings
3) I have tried removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab and checked the registry setting as listed here to ensure that EnableAutoDetect is set to 1
4) I have set "network connection" under advanced in my gmail settings to both "The Internet" and "MEdia Net" with the same results
5) I do have pop3 enabled on my gmail account (it works fine on the phone when connecting via WIFI)
6) I have tried both via pop3 and imap settings for my gmail account setup
7) The connection being used is set to wap.cingular (not isp.cingular)
Please keep in mind that this gmail account works perfectly fine in messaging so long as i am connected to a local wireless router, it is only when going through AT&T's network that it does not work.
Is there any chance that AT&T has changed how they are forcing the use of their proxy? Am i wrong to assume i should be able to download my gmail through their network?
(p.s. thanks for any insight or help you might provide, i have managed to get my tilt flashed with dutty's latest release as well as my radio flashed, but i am having no luck with this issue)
note: during these issues with gmail, my live.com email was working successfully - you can always setup forwarding on your gmail account for a temporary solution
In your isp settings does it say "isp.cingular" or "wap.cingular". I had the same problem until i changed it to "wap.cingular". When it fails to connect it pops up a bubble window with a warning that it failed. Click settings, isp settings, next until you get to the setting that says isp.cingular. This is all granting that you're in the USA.
Problem confirmed for me as well. Cannot connect to gmail via the messaging app unless connected to wifi. I'm using MediaNet connection using wap.cingular when not connected to wifi.

yes, mine is set to wap.cingular.. i switched everything to use the MEdia Net connection (not the My ISP one) - which was already set to wap.cingular.. thanks for the suggestion though, i left it out of my list - if anything this can be a consolidated spot for common causes.
FYI, it actually started working on its own since my initial post (after not having worked all day).. the only things i have done tonight are the following:
1) did a send/receive via a WIFI connection on the gmail account
2) setup outlook 2007 on my PC and synched my contacts/notes/email
3) upgraded my radio from default .11 to .17 (perhaps .11 radio restricts proxy settings?) (*soft reset - may have played a role?)
i wish i had tested it between each of these steps, but i wasn't really doing these things to try and fix the gmail issue.. hopefully it will stay working
Here's a silly question - had you tried simply soft-resetting the phone? I had the same problem for a bit, was absolutely driving me nuts, and all it took was a soft reset to get it to connect and work fine ever since. Maybe for future reference...

not a silly question.. i had tried resetting somewhere amongst my attempts during the day with no avail, but obviously i reset during flashing the radio rom, so who knows, maybe that did play a factor.
all i know is it is still working today from work, so that is a big plus.

try everything in the list, and try a soft reset as well.. if that doesn't do it you may want to try and update your radio rom to .17 since you are on .11 as i was..
I had the same problem and had to enable SSL for incoming and outgoing mail under the advanced settings in the Outgoing mail server setup page. Once I did that everything has worked perfect since then.
Hope it solves your problem aswell.
I've never had an issue with Gmail and wap.cingular...except HTML messages still not working.
The SSL thing is most likely it. If you read google's instructions for setting up the account it clearly states that ssl with authentication has to be enabled.
Gmail
For those having issues with Gmail, has anyone looked into Mobipush? This service allows you to use your device's Direct Push Technology to get your Gmail sent to your device in real-time. I had previously mentioned this in another thread. All you have to do is turn on POP or IMAP access in your Gmail settings and setup your device as per the instructions on Mobipush's site. I've been using the service and it seems to work great...and did I mention its free?
here's the link...

I use Java for my Gmail account its very nice and fast with 3G. I have never tried setting it up on an account inthe built in Messaging App. I use Pocket MSN for my primary Hotmail account. Just download the Gmail IMAP software from Google and try it out and see what you think.

i had the same problem with bellsouth as my email provider when using outlook email but i got it to work on xpressmail - i still dont know what was wrong...
Same problem, I think
Gmail app loads and maybe 1kb comes down but then after a short time it errors saying that it needs a data connection and to look at the FAQ. This only started happening after upgrading to ATT ROM AKU 0.4.4. Worked on my stock ATT TILT no problems.
mobiPush looks good. I use Seven's extended beta. http://community.seven.com/forum/main.php They now support Gmail IMAP. It works great, and I like how it fixes Gmail's imap problems. I'll have to check out mobiPush to compare the two.
Funny, I was able to get G-mail to work fine on my first Tilt and I got the new one (red light of death issue) and now my G-mail won't work...

I had same problem "Error Synchronizing" - "Cannot connect with current connection settings"." - Problem is activesync getting in a twist. Go into connection manager and turn off activesync, or connect to PC and then disconnect.

Tried setting up gmail in Messaging App
I tried to set up my gmail account too, just to see. I set up gmail pop3 at gmail settings. I went through messaging App and set up incoming with
pop.gmail.com:995 and outgoing smtp.gmail.com:465 Nothing seemed to work, says unable to connect with current settings. A few have already said that it worked fine under their messaging app. What settings are you using if you have it working? Please post your incoming and outgoing settings please.
Thanks, Kevin
I had this when I upgraded to Dutty's new rom, and I was panicking like mad. I tried everything - but nothing worked apart from wifi sync - so I went to bed. When I got up I tried to sync and worked right away...
So I dunno if you've been hard at work at this non stop - best thing to do is seemingly to let it settle, same thing happened for me when I upgraded again to V3 Dutty's (which is awesome by the way) - gmail started working after a little while (this time I did nothing)
Hi,
I have a problem with the GPRS and Wireless connection. I am using Windows Live mail and and set it up so it is manually synchronized! Same with other mail accounts.
But, every time I connect to the internet using wireless and then press Send/Recieve, it keeps opening GPRS and use it to retrieve new e-mails and ignores my wireless connection!!! Which is really annoying.
How do I fix that?
I have exactly the same... but then with internet sharing with my laptop... keeps using my gprs/3g instead off the wifi that is 100 times faster.
annoying
and it is really annoying as you said, it is much faster with wifi and for people like me where I do not have monthly GPRS data included, it's really annoying and costs a lot.
Earlier, I had my e-mail to automatically download new emails daily and suddenly, I got a huge phone bill because of that problem!! So, e-mails are downloaded manually now until I fix the problem!!
You can find the answer here:

Newer Windows Live always tries to connect using your default Internet Connection even when you are already online. To solve this, you need to go to:
Start->Settings->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks. Change everything to My Work Network.
With this, Windows Live won't try to connect when you have active internet connection. The problem now is, if you have no active internet connection, it will force your device to connect to your gprs/3g but will fail to work. You will need to reset the setting above to your gprs/3g connection.
yes but
Yes but chaning preferences for my network would result in not having my mms working, or gprs when I need it?
However, I have to go back to settings and change everything again to get things to work!!!! I would rather have a solution than a workaround
not working

I tried your solution but the phone tries to connect using MMS connection and of course windows live mail fails to download emails even though my wifi is on and connected!! It just ignores the wifi??

Have you tried NoDATA with HTC Diamond with WM6.1?? NoData seems to be an old cab file for older versions of WM?
I installed BB Connect .106 onto my HTC FUZE and actually got it working, new PIN, IP address, everything seemed fine.
BUT. . .
I found that I could not connect to the internet or get emails, even though the connection settings clearly showed me as being connected to Media Net.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, is there a workable solution? FWIW, I do acually have a Blackberry plan (BIS) in use with my Bold, but I would like to have the option to switch between the devices as I wish.a
What, no one??? No one at all???
I am using about the same config as you, but all is working fine here. Keep in mind:
1. You have to set up a correct connection (APN) for all internet traffic but BBC (which uses its own non-configurable APN)
2. When you click on an internet link in a Blackberry message, your browser tries to use the BBC set APN to get the page.
3. When you browse to an URL in IE or Opera your browser tries to use the (self set) internet conection APN.
Maybe this helps you solve your problem.
Thanks for the reply. When I have more time to experiment I'll check it out.
Hi all, I have a strange problem and wondered if anyone could think why it won't work.
I am trying to get access to my work FTP server via andFTP. Now it works fine on my home WiFi (so not an internal external issue) but can't get it to work over the 3G. Does anyone have any idea why this may be or am I just best off trying a different client?
If it doesn't work on 3G, then it's because you haven't forwarded your FTP port in your router. When your phone is connected through 3G, it is outside your local network.
And then you also need to know your "outside" IP address. (Google my IP)
And then thats the IP you need to connect to in andFTP.

Thanks for the reply. Just to clarify though it is definately working externally as I can access my works FTP server fine from my home via wifi, even though they are on completely different networks so I know the routing and forwarding etc. is correct from the FTP server end. I just cant work out why it wont connect over 3G.
Can you login to your FTP from work? Or just outside your own network?
It is not the same that you can connect to an outside FTP, that it is to connect from the outside to your internal FTP.
You need to forward port 21 in your router to your FTP server's IP address. Otherwise it wont work.

I can log-in internally when connected to WiFi, I can log-in externally when connected to WiFi, I can't log-in via 3G at all (SocketException). I may well try another FTP client, any recommendations.
So if you connect to a WiFi that isn't your own, you can still log in?
If that is so, then I guess they might have blocked FTP transfers over your 3G network.
It works on mine, thats why it sounds wierd to me, and the only difference is more or less the mobile company.

spot on... after trying a new FTP client and that not working I have done a bit of digging on the web and it seem's t-mob uk block FTP transfers. Anyone else on the same provider confirm this?
That sucks
Try to call t-mobile and ask them if this is just a bug, or if it was intended.
tell me about it! Gonna give them a ring when I get five minutes although I can imagine the call now...
Me: Hello, I cant seem to access FTP via my mobile internet.
T-Mob: Whats FTP???
Me: Could you please open Port 21 so I can access my work files.
T-Mob: No, but did you hear about the great new services you are entitled to for just £xx a month...

FYI, I can ftp my home ftp server no problems over T mobile network using AndFTP.
It could well be how they have you set up, and what package you are signed up for, If you got a G2 from tmobile, I was told there is a specific set they have for you if you have a G2
thanks for the info Higgsy...
As an update to this I have just gotten off the phone to T-Mobile CS and have to say they were very helpful. Although the guy was unsure at first why it wan't letting me get through to FTP he suspected it could be due to not having 'web n walk plus' (£7.50 per month instead of £5). Due to a long wait he added this to my account free of charge.
The problem hasn't gone away yet but he did say it could take up to 24 hours to go through.
Will keep this post updated and let you know if it gets sorted.
I thought it might be that, I used to get this issue trying to access certain things on my old e71 when I had standard web and walk set up. I was actually told by a tech support guy, who was also very helpful that the G1/G2 needed a specific web and walk/account set up.
a quick update to this and 24 hours on unfortunately the upgrade to w+w plus doesnt seem to have fixed things, have decided to give this a miss now and wait for something like a dropbox app to come along.
On the plus side I yet again mentioned my poor internet speed (was averaging around 300-350kbps) so he had a look at the account. Despite being told on several occasion before there was no issue he had a look at the profile assigned to the account and found that, surprise-surprise, I was being throttled at 3g speeds. A few minutes and a phone reset later I am getting speeds in excess of 1500kbps! Hurrah!
I'm not sure what AndFTP's default is, but maybe you want to check that you are using passive mode (it's in the Advanced tab).
