sorry, wtf is that? I am running pdaviet3, if that is what you're asking.
have you set up tzones to work with your wm6?
yea it has been working for over a month on wm6 now. I had a issue last week and a softrestart fixed it. The problem was with spb insight which I uninstalled now. Softrestarts don't do anything now.. not sure what happened.
wierd.. ok.. and its working again. That was odd, I hope it stays functional now.

How did you get it to work? Im having the same problem.
tzones no longer works check www.howardforums.com tmobile section for details. they blocked all ports and only allow limited wap access, u need to change to the 19.99 blackberry plan inorder to use the inet on ur mda.. ****ty i know.
It seems full access is back on for the moment with TMobile. There are several dozen threads in many forums about access being turned on and off as apparently TMobile works on the network.
The only official statement I have seen TMobile make is that 3rd party apps are going to be disabled soon.
My guess is they are preparing their system for the new highspeed band and using the current one to test various methods of restricting access. This may possibly mean adding more payment tiers or levels of speed. Just a guess on my part but in my opinion a welcome feature. To be able to pick and choose several features (push email, msging, speed, or data caps) tailored to individual usage would be ideal.
Tmobile seems to be frustrating a lot of people by turning on and off access to their system without any public notice. Seems like they should just make a statement on their intent.
Posts on Howard forums and here confirm TMobile is tightning up internet access. Recent "internal memo leak" indicates they were attempting to stop access for 3rd party apps. Also attemping to stop people on tzones sbility to recive anything but wap material.
Just be aware the "free ride is coming to a end soon".
As a bonus they also appear to be messing up the paying customers and aggravating them too.
Please save the messing with a loyal customer talk or for xxx speed and price I'm leaving for the Tmobile csr's because no one here cares if you lost your free or discounted access.

""Say Goodbye To Using Tzones Or Blackberry Internet On Mda/dash/sda""
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.
Just curious if anyone here has MagicJack service? www.magicjack.com
Apparently, it works pretty well for 19.99 a year, lol.
Anyway, I amjust curious because from what I have read magicjack uses standard SIP protocol and you are able to get the SIP username/password etc by using a third party program (Fiddler, http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/)
Would the magicjack SIP account work with the Voip software on the Kaiser/Other WM6.1 devices? If so, having high quality Voip on the kaiser for 19.99 a year would be pretty sweet .
My cousin has MagicJack so when I can get over to his house I might try it, but just curious if anyone else has played around with it.
I have MagicJack at home for a home telephone and it works really good. VOIP sucks alot of bandwidth so I wouldn't even consider it unless you have 3g or hsdpa.
I haven't had time to dig into the software and start tinkering with it. I did set it up one time so I could spoof the caller-id to any number I wanted it to display on the recipents ends.
Your best bet is to start reading up on magicjack at http://unofficialmagicjack.forum2u.org/
This way you can learn from what others have discovered and hopefully merge it with your knowledge about the Kaiser.
Yeah, I have the Data Plan and I get good HSDPA coverage, and when I dont, I generally have WiFi available, so if I got it to work it would be good for me.
I'll take a look at that site. Thanks for the link!
I've ditched cable TV, and I'm loving the freedom. I'm wanting to ditch my house phone as well, and then only need internet from my service provider. They really hit you hard for not having TV, making the phone like $30 a month just for an effing land line! I have a cell, but I have a wife and kid at home that need a land line for occasional use. I've looked to adding a line to my cell plan, and I didn't get on a family plan, so another line is like $50 a month. So I'm looking at some kinda VOIP solution, I really like Ooma service. However the unit is like $200. I was thinking maybe Magic Jack but I don't like the annual fee. I just want to pay once and have a solution that's long term. Plus I don't like Magic Jack's gimmicky feel, makes it seem cheap. I can get over it if it's really the best option, but just personal feeling. Either way I'm open to suggestion, just tired of being over charged for a phone we use occasionally. Ideas?
I don't know all the providers that are out there, but if you find a provider that will allow to register your DID number using Asterisk, and you have an old (P 4 gen. one, or newer) laying around. This way you van configure it to suit your needs. The best part is you don't need to buy expensive VoIP phones. Just an inexpensive ATA (analog telephone adapter) that can be found on ebay, and use all of your existing home phones and wiring.
The only down fall to this setup (as with any VoIP setup) is you will need a UPS to keep it running in the event of a power failure.
If you have questions let me know.

Oh you shouldn't left that door open,I've got a lot of questions!
So an Asterisk setup w/ ATA Adapter is essentially what Magic Jack and Ooma are doing, just charging you for it?
How would I check if my provider (I'm presuming you mean my internet provider) will allow me to register my DID number, just call them?
What is "P 4 gen. one, or newer" referring to?
I'm sorry I just need a little more explanation on the process, or if you could link me to a how-to page. I just need a point of reference to Google from, this concept is completely new to me.
Hehe, I dont mind.
1. Correct, but with the added benefit of being able to configure/customize it to your needs.
2. I'm not talking your current ISP (you will needt to keep them) I ment like Vonage, or Voipo, etc. Alot of them will give you a "free adapter" that that you can not customize much. Call them and see if the would be willing to give you SIP credentials (login) in place of the adapter, or go with one that offers SIP trunking, (all phone features like vm, cid, etc would be handled by you rather then the provider). SIP trunk providers just do the orig/term of your phone number, and then send traffic to you (ring) when someone calls your number.
Most (if not all) VoIP providers have the ability to port your number. meaning that you would be able to keep your current Land-line number. (same idea as changing cellular providers but keeping your phone number)
3. A "P4 gen one or newer" would be a computer desktop that has a pentium 4 or better, with at least 512 MB of RAM, and at least one NIC (network interface). I would suggest running Asterisk in a Linux/Unix environment, as that is native, and runs with out all the over head of Windows
This is a good howto, although a bit old. I would suggest running either Asterisk 1.8 or 10, as they are both supported (ver. 1.4 isn't anymore, but i'm not sure about 1.6).
One other thing I forgot to mention is e911. If you do decide to go the VoIP route (running either Asterisk or just using a providers provided adapter, make sure they offer this. In the event that you need to call 911, your home address will be registered, and you will be connected to you local PD dispatch (they will know where you are). If this is not offered, you may get connected to a regional dispatch, and it will take longer for your local PD/EMS/Fire to get to you.
@nj_PeePs
Sorry it's been so long to get a reply back to you, life gets in the way. However I saw a Slickdeals offer that sparked the thought about our convo. The OBi110 is this an example of an ATA adapter that would work? Also is there an ATA adapter that's tailored to work for this application? I'm just looking for which bit of gear I should buy to start working on this project. Thanks!
EDIT: Or I just found the OBi202 looks like it does USB and Bluetooth, would that be a better first purchase?
