Brief intro:
I've used NoData to stop GPRS connections.
(a useful little tool to prevent GPRS connections, available at: http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility/)
My settings are as follows:
Programs that use the automatic Internet use: Business
and same for the private network: Business
So if business is lan, and lan uses WLAN, why do only some applications work and others don't.
Applications that work: gsPlayer, Opera, Internet Explorer
What does not work: Windows Live, Skype, etc.
Please help
Maybe your business WLAN blocks some connections? You should ask your Administrator.
I've used different WiFi networks, it has nothing to do with blockings, it's something to do with the PDA on the PocketPC but I can't figure out what else to do.
I've tried another PocketPC and it works fine, it's a configuration on the HTC Diamond.
Has anyone an idea how to fix this problem? I got the same one and I'm desperately looking for a solution.

Having problems connecting Skype via wifi. Seems to be the same bug that people are experiencing with IE (Opra works fine). I'm wondering if this will impact all wifi applications. Can anyone assist?
Otherwise the new rom is great, excellent battery life.

I have it fixed (including the IE problem) :lol: :lol:
You need to make sure your connection settings are as follows:
Start----->Settings------>Connections----->Advanced----->Select Networks
Programs that automatically connect to the internet use: My ISP
Programs that automatically connect to private network: T-mobile GPRS
Wooo hooo

Great - glad you got it working.
Now - the settings you described are "soft" - the reference to "T-Mobile GPRS" and "My ISP" are network connections "settings groups" in Microsoft pocket pc lingo. If you wanted to, you could edit each one and do things like change the GPRS gateway that they use, add a proxy or indicate that no proxy is needed, and add one or more network connections that are used by the "settings group".
It's a pretty powerful and flexible system - but whoever organized and designed the way it's all presented to users should be strung up. :x This has got to be one of the most convoluted, unintuitive user interfaces ever conceived, and it's really a disgrace because this really IS an area that lends itself very well to a clean hierarchical interface.
Anyway - what will be most telling is if you were to now look at the definition of the settings groups for "T-Mobile GPRS" and "My ISP". You will likely see that one of them uses "wap.voicestream.com" as an APN (access point name), while the other uses "internet2.voicestream.com" as the APN.
The name of the settings group is arbitrary - you just need to be sure that what's under the covers in each settings group is designated correctly for "private network" or "the Internet" connectivity, for the right APN, specifying or clearing the proxy definition, etc.
As a matter of fact, my groups are the reverse of yours -- "T-Mobile GPRS" is the name of the settings group that's being invoked on my MDA when I connect to the Internet...
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. Also, if I connect to a wireless lan, the same thing happens. IE can't browse, but other apps access data just fine.
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?).
Are there some proxy settings I need to change or fix? I was able to browse the internet with IE via wireless lan or medianet perfectly fine before BB Connect was configured.
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.
I've noticed the same behavior. It happened when I opened the "email settings" icon. This opens pocket IE with an extra menu item. Since then, wifi works for all programs, but pocket IE just gives me a blank page...
Did a hard reset, and never used the 'email settings' thing again. Everything is fine now...
I've noticed the same issue. I've set my connection to medianet using the proxy, noproxy isp.cingular.com and wap.cingular.com. All other programs are able to get to the internet (google, live search, BBC internet explorer, etc.) except for the standard IE. I don't browse too often, so I use the BBC browser when I need one.
thanks all ... i know now not to click the email settings button ... did a hard reset and all is well ... MediaNet full web browsing kills BIS
Internet Explorer inoperable
Help please! I am using the Kaiser and have the following issues.
1. There are 2 capital 'E's in the top. One that says Blackberry Edge and the smaller E says Tmobile Blackberry Edge when tapped
2. I can not simultaneously use the browser to access the internet at the same time that I am using the blackberry service to access emails. One of the 2 must be suspended.
In other words, I would have to literally suspend blackberry in settings to go surf the web.
Does anyone have this issue? Can anyone at all offer assistance to correct the settings so both can work together.
Any leads greatly appreciated!! Michael
i am having the same problem. did not find a solution. started using xpress mail
Hi,
I have the same problem with my HTC Kaiser and T-Mobile Germany.
The funny thing is that T-Mobile doesn't support Blackberry on this device.
I just installed the BBConnect_WM6_Professional_BB_41.0.0.84.cab and restarted the device and was happy that all works fine. I got all my mails from company BES server, includes the security features which lock the device every 15 minutes.
If this will work with Blackberry mail for home users, I don't know. I tested the BBConnect only to our company server.
I have the same problem like users here has in this threat:
I can't use the Internet Explorer to browse in the Internet. That problem still exist on WLAN and on GPRS. I turned off the phone part and try to use WLAN, but I have the same problem.
I guess that the Blackberry Connect will modify the Internet Explorer (like other parts of the device) to enable security features.
If I use the Blackberry Browser I got the message that the service is not supported. I know that some colleague had the same problem with their Blackberry (Hardware device) and called T-Mobile to enable the service.
I can user Google Maps, IMAP-Mail profile, Weather software and other stuff from the Internet without problems (WLAN and GPRS), only the Internet Explorer and Media Player has problems to connect.
To solve the problem I will talk to the BES Admin or / and T-Mobile. If this will not solve my problems, I will install Opera Browser, which will hopefully work.....
Here are my versions:
Rom: 1.56.111.4 - 09/01/07
Radio: 1.27.12.32
Protocol: 22.45.99.07H

You have to go to registry:
hkey_current_user->software->microsoft->windows->current version->internet settings
and delete enableautodetect entry
This solve the problem for me

You can modify the registry key 'EnableAutoDetect' key found in the registry location:
[hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\windows\curre ntversion\internet settings']
The default setting (that uses the proxy) is:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000000
(To disable proxy) Change it to:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000001
The best option is to delete the registry key (which I did) since some posts indicate this registry option gets set to 0 after a reset.

Hi,
I changed the IE settings EnableAutoDetect from 0 to 1 and everything works fine.
I tested Opera Browser as well and it's fine, but I don't like the Bookmark synchonisation, this is better in IE....
Thanks a lot
Erik

Tks a lot,

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how i go about creating a hidden proxy? I tried looking at the settings of the at&t hidden proxy but can't seem to figure it out...
The problem is I cannot use the proxy setting under connection settings because it is already in use. My cellular operator has a monthly data plan of 100MB for 7,5€, but is limited to http traffic. This limitation is enforced by the use of a http proxy.
I'm running a http proxy server at home and would like to chain the proxies so that all requests would be formated to go to my server, through my operator's one. Is this possible?
Alternatively, does anyone know of a program that would allow me to chain proxies?
Thanks
I would also like to know if it is possible to create your own hidden proxy.
I use my tilt on T-Mobile and am also using the proxy to allow me to get unlimited internet access with the T-MobileWeb (Formerly T-Zones) for 5.99 a month.
However, using the proxy I am unable to use Apps such as remote desktop, windows live messenger, etc because for some reason they don't work with the proxy.
I was thinking that maybe using this hidden proxy instead of putting the proxy info in the connections settings would allow me to use these apps.

If you cannot properly setup a visible HTTP proxy (for WiFi), how could you even think about an invisible proxy?
This device is crappy.
Almost
This looks like the beginnings of an excellent application, however, does anyone know of a program that will automatically switch various settings based on GPS location? I have been digging around for months trying to find a solution that will allow me to set up various "profiles" based on my GPS location, e.g. silent/vibrate, medium brightness, gprs connection enabled all other data connection disabled, while I am at work, and wifi on while im in major metropolition areas, and off while not, etc etc.. is this a pipe dream or has anyone stumbled across something similar?
also Im not sure why you want a "hidden" proxy, but this might be your solution:

Searh forum for NoGPRS.cab
Do a search for NoGPRS.cab or NoData it will allow you turn off your phones need to call out through GPRS or Media Net. It will then only use wifi to go out to internet.

What I really wanted was individual config, so that say
my blackberry app would always use wahtever was available hspda,3g,gprs,wifi,bt,active sync, but gmail could only use wifi or bt or activesync.
I was wondering along the lines of a proxy, use a differnt address for different typoe of connect
proxy1 - any service
proxy2 - restricted
proxy3 even more restricted
Proxy depending on connection??
Hi,
I would like to configure different proxy options depending on the connection, something like:
1. If cradled: use cradle internet connection, proxy 1 (namely the company proxy).
2. If wifi connection: no proxy (usually cofee shops with free wifi)
3. If no connection available, use GPRS (proxy 2, configured according to operator)
Is there any way to do this? It would be perfect for me!! And I'm sure more people must have this kind of needs.
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
why do you want to use two connections for that? Weather and RSS also work over web.vodafone.de
I don't know any reason to use the wap-APN.
2 GPRS connections at the same time - parallely
Hi there,
Regardless if there are other ways to avoid two parallel gprs connections - I have (well had) exactly this: I use Blackberry client on my Touch Pro, this opens a gprs connection called "Blackberry" and if I update the weather or do any surfing, it opens another connection. I can then see them in the connection bubble. Very useful in my opinion.
Unfortunately, I just changed my ROM to a cooked one. And these two connections don't work anymore. Bad, as also the automatic email checking on my non- Blackberry accounts doesn't work anymore.
So if somebody knows, what to do to enable parallel gprs connections, please post it. I know it works as I had this working for 6 months without flaws.
