Simple Yes or No.. MediaNet PPU charges

I have mediaNet unlimited... I just upgraded to the 2.23 rom by summiter which in the connections it shows "myISP" and not mediaNet......
Will I get charged Pay-Per-Usage?

There is no simple answer to is. Using My ISP or Media Net (the only difference is the use of proxy server) does not matter to the billing. I use My ISP all the time w/o being charged PPU. First, make sure PPU is not showing up on your account features. Many times, CSR will forget to take it off when adding Media Net or even PDA connection. Secondly, don't over use the data. If your data usage stands out, Cingular will definitely take a close look at your account and decide you should use Media Net plan and slam you with PPU.

Thanks for the reply.
I think that I will just flash back to the summiter 2.17 rom. I know that I didnt get the PPU charge on it. (just as a precaution) I am almost certain it had MEdiaNet in it in.
let me ask this... is thier a cingular CAB file that will set up the settings ?

why not just use the medianet profile as default if you are worried about it? the settings are in there, just not as default.

You need call and ask them remove that PPU from your account. You're being charged PPU right now.

Agreed... I just loaded the 2.17 rom and all is good now.. the proxy and all that good stuff is in there.

Again, I and many others don't use proxy server because of Wi-Fi issues. As long as PPU feature is not on your account, it really doesn't matter you use proxy server or not. You need call CSR to remove that *feature* from your account regardless. Sooner or later, it will bite you with a huge bill even if you're using proxy server.

[SOLVED] SDCard not recognised, RAPI/ActiveSync disabled, caused by Exchange policies

Dear all,
My Storage Card keeps disappearing after a while. Can't get it back other than by hard-resetting the device.
I've rebuild the phone several times now, and after a few hours incl. some warm-reboots, it's not able to recognise the SDCard anymore. Another problem which I figured out is that it disables RAPI too, which makes connecting with ActiveSync impossible. Luckily I was able to build an enableRAPI.cab file, which enables it (which I sent by mail to my phone!)...Well... Anyone that knows what this might be caused by?
Regards,
Nika.
PS. This started when I started to use the new ROM (see signature), but I think it's a general issue, maybe caused by UC or other programs installed by UC, or myself (after restarting)...

Hi all,
I have figured out that this is caused by Exchange policies (after my first Activesync Sync) pushed to my mobile! I have no idea how to change them back, going to try to figure that out now...
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Nika.

Dear all,
I figured it out. This was caused by the "enforce security settings" which can be done by Microsoft Exchange push-mail.
I got the following message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I hadn't realised before, but this caused my phone to be inaccessible for ActiveSync (RAPI was disabled) too, and made my StorageCard disappear.
When I realised this I started my investigation on Microsoft Exchange. I opened the Exchange Management Console:
And then I opened the Default Properties, and changed to the Sync Settings tab:
Here I turned on all options, resynced the phone, rebooted and all my issues were solved
Kind Regards,
Nika.

For those of you interested in the rest of the Exchange Security Policy settings, here's screenprints of the other tabs:

Nika.

thanks
Nice info
many thanks, this helps much ppl...
Cheers

Lol, thanks. You wouldn't want to know how many times I reinstalled my phone due to this (thank god for Sleuth's UC!!), so I really hope this thread will help people struggling with the same problems if they arise...
Regards,
Nika.

Cert fixed my problem
I noticed that your Exchange 2007 settings had the "Allow nonprovisional devices..." setting still enabled. This was initially the setting I changed in our Exchange 2007 environment that made the difference, however, as others have suggested, this was an unacceptable long term solution and likely not even a possibility if you're not the Exchange Admin.
The solution for me was to export the cert (the same one that is used when logging into your Outlook Webmail) and install the cert on the phone.
The problems described in this thread only became an issue for me when I upgraded to 6.1. I kept the same radio 1.48 so I know it wasn't a radio issue in my case.
I switched the nonprovisional setting off once I installed my cert and the device has had no problems syncing ever since. Compromising policy and security is never the best solution (although still a solution sometimes) so I hope this helps some of you in the same boat as I was in.

Did you have to enable the options on the 'Device' tab as well as I would pretty much want all them features enabled ?
This worries me a bit as my company is about to upgrade to Exchange 2007 and they don't consult users before enabling things like this. I currently use BlackBerry Connect but would prefer to move to native ActiveSync since BBC has some other issues. If it means they are going to lock out all the functionality of my Kaiser then I'll not bother. I'll have to wait and see...

Can't Setup my BB connect.

Ok. I have a BB pearl and an AT&T Tilt. My BB pearl is provisioned for unlimited everything. (Tethering, Blackberry, Internet). I work for AT&T so this is my company issued SIM. I downloaded the BB connect software on my Kaiser so I could switch out my SIM into my kaiser and just use the BB for making calls and SMS. It's obsolete compared to the TILT as in the things you can do with it. Personal Preference I guess. Here's my issue.
Here is a screenshot of my version of BB connect:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now I tried to get it to register with the BB network. I clicked on Suspend and then I clicked on it again to refresh and when I clicked on my H for HSPDA it said Blackberry and it had a timer next to it indicating it had been connected for so long. About 10 seconds later it disconnected and this is what I saw.

...................................................................................................
If I click on details I get this:
I checked my browser settings on my phone and disable the box for:
This network uses a proxy server.
I am able to access the internet, tried soft reset with stylus, and hard reset by pulling battery out. Same issue. I tried searching on google but only threads I find is how to get the BB Connect installed. There is no Troubleshooting section. I'd really appreciate it if you guys would be kind enough of looking at these screenshots and helping me. Until then I'll keep playing with it. (That's what she said).
Thanks guys

I also want to add that I will not be using this for a BES email. I want to be able to have my personal email pushed to my phone. I'm going to look around so I can find a way of getting BB messenger to work. I heard someone got it to work. I know it's possible because I know someone who has it working 100 percent on their T-Mobile version of Kaiser. I am provisioned for Blackberry Enterprise Feature even though I don't use it. So I should be straight.

I have fixed with this problem before. I had to call at&t and have them change a code on my account. I don’t know the exact terminology but, what they did is change a code on my account from blackberry to windows mobile blackberry. Then the mail flowed.

Ok I already stated I have all the correct provisioning on my account. I have a company SIM we are provisioned with everything. I can't even get it started to get email as you can see from the screenshots.

My apologies. I forgot to mention that there is a registry key that need to be modified for 6.1 roms. I can tell because you PIN number is still pending. See the following post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400020
There is a mistake in the registry key line. It should read:
HKLM/System/Version/AKU. Change the value of the AKU key to REG_SZ of 0.4.4
After this soft reset the device. It can take as long a 5 minutes toe get the pin number from the network. You can tell your good because you will see the BB (or what looks like 4 0's) in the system tray. You will also notice that you have received a pin number.
I have this setup working with the latest at&t 6.1 rom v3.55.502.1 and BBC V4.0.0.100

I just check my records. You will still have to re-provision you sim for windows mobile blackberry connect. Again I have made this upgrade before.

There is a mistake in the registry key line. It should read:
HKLM/System/Version/AKU. Change the value of the AKU key to REG_SZ of 0.4.4

Ok I get all the way to Version (Mine says Versions). If I click on it. I don't have an AKU there. Would you mind providing a screenshot so I can manually add it.

You are correct it is versions. remember this only needs to be applied to Mobile 6.1. And you will need to re-provision from blackbery to windows mobile blackberry.

Ok my problem is solved. No need to re-provision anything since I already stated 2x that I was provisioned. This is what I did.
1. I went to the registry and modified AKU value,
2. I disabled my 3g connection and bought it down to E
3. Rebooted device.
4. Installed BB connect software via the phone.
5. Installed software
6. Soft reset
7. Went to the softare and did a register now
8. Got a pin!!
9. Logged into my Blackberry account online and update PIN and IMEI of my Kaiser so that it would xfer all my email accts to my Kaiser
10. Enabled 3g again.
11. Sat back and relaxed it works now.
Now I just have to figure out how to get BB Messenger to work for sending PIN messages as well. I know there has to be a way if you can read them why not be able to send them. Yadadamean?

Tilt wm6.1 tethering

anyone successfully tethered their tilt with wm6.1?

Absolutely. I do it daily (without a tethering plan even). What kind of problems are you having?

How?

Can you share how? I hate paying lots of extra bucks for tethering. I use it extensively and download a lot of stuff.

I hate reading another redundant thread regarding media net and teathering

wireless tethering with WMWiFiRouter is the best way to go. Google it and download.

I second that.... I am using Version 1.25 although there is an update to V1.30. I do not want to update since the version I have works flawlessly and I am used to it.

super easy, use file explorer or whatever software you use that does the same thing, go into the phones "windows" folder, go down to the program called internet sharing, copy it. Now go to you folder in the windows folder called "start menu" then "programs" now paste the program here or one of the subfolders. DO NOT PASTE SHORTCUT. now you should be able to go under start menu programs and start the program. You will probably notice that it says something like at&t isp, change that to media net, conect to your computer and press the tab that sais connect and you should be golden.

then don't read it. no one is forcing you to. and allot of people don't have time to sit there and spend hours going through the many other posts that are not what they are looking for.

kemp509 - You rock! Works like a charm. I'm using it as I type this message. I can't wait to use it the next time I'm out of WiFi range.

BTW - I tested my speeds at http://www.speedtest.net/ and it turns out that my AT&T network has faster download speed then my home broadband by 35%! Upload was the same.

Wow...
I guess on my side my mobile connection won't equal my home connection anytime soon

Accessing NAS - Addonics adaptor using Kiaser+Experia/WM6.1

Now that I have formally Introduced myself, I'm having issues with Accessing my NAS device. I've searched like crazy on the boards and cant seem to find anything along the issues that I've been having, even going as far as changing some registry items
The NAS Device in question is an Addonics NAS adapter with a Kingston 64GB thumbdrive plugged into it, and it's physically connected by CAT5 cable to my Wireless router - netgear DG834GT. I followed the instructions in the Manuals for getting it started ( quick install, and user manual - both PDF). There are 2 SMB profiles, one that I set up myself with a password, and a Guest profile without a password that was there by default.

and I've been able to access it appropriately the first time, through WIFI, by going through in windows : start -> run -> the Device's assigned IP (\\192.168.0.3) or the device's "name" ("\\kingston64GB) I'm able to get through to the thumbdrive without a problem, I've since applied shortcuts to the drive on My Laptop itself.
However I'm also trying to access the NAS through Both my winmo devices (kaiser and Experia, both running winmo 6.1, stock roms ) over wifi and I'm having no Joy. I've even tried going through The total command program that i saw elsewhere , and I still get the same thing happenening.
I go File explorer -> Menu -> go to -> open path -> new path I enter either the IP or device name that I mentioned Earlier and I get the a screen asking for a username, password and a "Domain"
Neither username and password combo that have been set up work with this, And I don't even know if there's a Correct "domain" for this.
Any help will be much appreciated, thanks in advance

Nas access
Hi deed-elvis,
Think the problem is that your nas system runs a samba server for file sharing. Myself i run a linux server at home and have the same issues.
And i haven't found a way to connect samba using windows mobile

Yup,
I've googled my fingers Raw, and it seems Winmo and Samba Do not want to play with each other.
Even The Tech support people at addonics agree on that front (see attatched)

NAS workaround
I had similar problems, however, there is a workaround: if your nas supports FTP, you can connect in that way. I use total commander on my winmo to connect to my Linux based NAS. For some reason this only seems to work over wifi; it seems that something about the WAN network (AT&T) makes my FTP unhappy.

try with htc network plug in and the share folder must have free access without passwords or user names

@wolframio74 I've tried the NAS setup utility, and at the very least i have to set up a username for it, it doesn't want to let me set up a profile with neither filled in =/
@afgncaap I'll try setting up FTP, I'll let you know how it goes
