Hi ,
I was playing with my Diamond and I have a strange situation ( for me at least) .
Some programs (AppToDate , WeatherWatcher , Windows Messenger ) doesn't get the updates on ActiveSync connection (internet connection seems off for those applications) , but over WI-Fi , yes .
I have check on under USB to PC "Enable advanced network functionality"
Some they work over both (Internet Explorer , Opera.. ).
Probably it's a setup thing , but I cannot figure out what.
Can somebody help me ?
Thanks,
did you enable MMS and internet sharing when you first did the ActivSync setup to the phone? If not, go to Start, then internet sharing, then for PC connection, choose USB. Hope this helps

Yes , they are both enabled , that's why I don't understand why some applications work with ActiveSync and others not. Actually all work with WIFI , but some doesn't with ActiveSync !?
Hi ,
I found the problem , but now I have another issue/question.
Under Settings> Connections > Advanced > Select Networks , I choose "My work Network " for "Programs that automatically connect to internet..."
It seems that all programs work when the USB is connected to PC.
Now the question is : Is the intenet comming through PC or is using the 3G ?
How could I check/see that ?
Thanks,
to be on the safe side, i would disable phone in comm. mang and then you will know it will be uusing the internet. If not, this may not work, turn your speakers on, if you heard sounds coming out of your speakers when your connected, then you are using 3G. it depends on your speakers if they have any interference. for me it does so i know when it is using 3G or not but I disable phone just to be safe.
I did turn off the phone connection and I got internet for my applications with ActiveSync.
It seems to be Ok now. I hope when they are both enabled (3G and ActiveSync connected) the ActiveSync is prioritized over 3G.
Thanks,

aparently i have no COM ports avaible, so i cant browse the internet. im not sure how to fix this, but im also not sure if it's just a problem on my kaiser? when i try to go on the internet it tries to connect to 3G, but i want to use active sync
You want to connect to the internet through your home pc via usb/BT?
You might want to try this.. I'm not SURE, just offering a suggestion.. someone can confirm/bunk this either way..
Start|Settings|Connections|Connections
One of the settings there might work for you,
If not.. theres a Little blue Question mark in the top right that actually has some pretty in depth info..
Sorry I couldnt be of more help, but it's a start.
Is ActiveSync actually working for you? I mean... is your Kaiser synching with your PC?
If activesync is working fine, try this on your PC (not on your Kaiser).
Open Regedit and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services
Create a new DWORD data type called "AllowLSP" and set it to 0
Plug your Kaiser again and let me know if it worked.

if i'm reading right you want to use internet sharing using usb or bluetooth and browse the internet using your PC?? is it?
1.first open setting in your active sync then uncheck allow the usb connection .
2.plug in the usb cable to ur pc and kaiser
3.open the internet sharing in your kaiser end select conection typ usb or bluetooth.
4.connect. (your computer will be installing rds driver automaticcaly)
5.then you'll have a gprs internet trough your pc
note you must have gprs/3g connection available in ur network.
in ur pc in the internet connection option makesure you select direct connection if you use firefox/opera.
Hope this solve your problem.

You are wanting to browse IE on your phone using the Activesync usb or BT connection (phone uses PC's internet connection for data) am I correct in thinking that?
I'm not sure what you mean by 'No comm ports available' as your WM device connects via USB?
Sorry if these steps may seem a bit condecending but best to check all.
1, Has your PC got a working internet connection (can you browse IE on your PC) ?
2, Is Activesync actually working (your contacts and mail are sync'ed) ?
3, In connection settings on Activesync (PC) you need 'Allow wireless connection' unchecked (Checked for tethering, PC goes through phone 3G) or phone will try to go through any data connections of its own first.
4, On your WM device under 'Settings' 'Connections' 'USB to PC, check the 'Enable advanced network functionality'
Hope this helps.
I have a similar query, I can use my PC's internet connection from home, but when I connect to my work PC it does not. Now I know this is down to the fact that my Work PC uses a proxy server, but how do I add this info in to my Tytn2.
Hi Farsquidge,
I have followed your steps above, but when I try to connect to IE on my device, I get the message "The current connection cannot be used for your request. Please end the current connection and try again."
Any ideas?
Also, many thanks for the widespread advice you have given throughout the fora - it has really helped me get the most of out of my TyTN2!

Your welcome.
Is your device an 'out of the box' HTC device that was not bound to a carrier contract? Some carrier (ie. AT&T Vodaphone) seem to have settings within the ROM (seen in other threads) that tie you in to only using their settings (ie Media.net) and using a proxy that cannot be changed for IE only for GPRS connections.
Anyone got ideas on this one.
Unfortunately, Orange UK got their hands on my TyTN2 before I did! Perhaps that's the source of my problems?

Are Orange UK (I am from UK but living abroad now) still wanting to promote their own Internet?
I know only last year a pal of mine said he could not connect his Nokia through his home WiFi because it would not connect via his BT Internet.
Check if you have a proxy connection set up on your GPRS cause ya never know!!!
I can connect to any Wifi network and access webpages without problems. Doesn't seem that there are any restrictions from that point of view. Thanks for the help - guess it's not really a problem not having Internet access via ActiveSync, as it connects to the Wifi network.
i guess i shoulda been more specific.
i wanted to browse the internet on my kaiser, using the active sync connection. however it wasnt working, but now ive re-installed opera and it works with that, not sure if it works with IE yet.
installed Opera and still no hope.
my tytn II is out of the box, not on any contract with an operator. can any one please help me..
Please help !
I can connect to my home Broadband using my XDA 11i but cna't get it to actually SHOW any web pages.
It tries searching but keeps trying to connect by GPRS .... sorry if I haven't explained it so well .
ANyways I can use the XDA for normal internet use BUT can't actually see any web pages when I try to connect by WiFI EVEN THOUGH the device says that it HAS a GOOD connection to my HOME BROADBAND !!??
HELP !!!!!!!
hi
i have the same problem on my ppc and i don't know how to access internet thru my adsl at home. it always connects to gprs for internet, messenger or email!! plz help
try checking if you really are connected thru your wifi. if so, open explorer on your phone while it is connected thru wifi, you'll konw when the icon circle with 2 arrows appear steady.
if not, set your settings to "the internet" instead of "work" then try again.
or you may be far from your wifi source, just for testing try to sit down in front of your wifi router while browsing.
worst comes to worst have a master rest and try again.
It does connect using the WiFI broadband but son't show any webpages and keeps tryin gto conect to GPRS >
Any SIMPLE suggestions ?
Thanks.
you obviously know how to turn on wifi on your alpine yes?
tunr on your wifi then go to the there is a little icon at teh bottom of the screen that shows all avalable connections, hold over select your home wifi connection, click connect when it appears select "internet" enter your wifi password and thats it, it will use your adsl connection if you turn on your wifi before you try to access the net, if you dont it will use gprs.
wifi must be on and connected before you use outlook/IE/opera ect. default is always gprs
Tried everything you said above -no luck !
Thanks anyway !!!!

Please, can someone explain how to connect the Diamond to Internet when is connected to the PC with ActiveSync? I understand it is possible
Settings -> Communications -> Internet sharing
Your PC should connect now.
No - I think he means how to get the Diamond online through the PC's connection, not the PC through Diamond's connectivity.
On my diamond it is online whenever it is connected to a PC with activesync running. That's as long as the PC with activesync is connected to the internet.
I think you need to have advanced connectivity enabled under the device's ActiveSync settings.

Correct. It's enabled by default.
Hello.I'm looking for a program which have to stop totally GPRS using.There are many programs which use GPRS by default and GPRS costs me a fortune.Is there a program which turns off GPRS entirely ?
Thank you
Sorry for my english,Im still studying it.
I've found a program,but I can't try it.After I removed WMWiFiRouter everytime when I connect the phone to the PC it recognizes it as Windows Mobile based Internet Sharing Device and ActiveSync can't connect to the phone.And the phone no more shows me the menu to choose if I want to connect to the PC through ActiveSync or (I forgot the other) and it appears Internet Sharing program.Help.
Can tell me how to restore my previous type of connection? Thank you in advance.
There is a program called nodata that will allow you to select and disable your GPRS connection. I haven't used it, but it seems to be pretty popular.
Thank you,but I have this program already,as I have written.I'm looking for a solution of the other problem that I've described previously in the topic.
Edit: I don't know exactly what I've done but I fixed it.
I've the same problem (getting no active sync anymore but internet sharing device) so maybe anybody knows how to solve it?
why don't you guys try kaiser tweak, i believe it's got some options for disabling and enabling gprs and activesync. http://www.jongma.org/KaiserTweak/
I've solved it. on my phone at least: i activated the internet sharing via bluetooth, connected, dosconencted. set it to usb and connected and disconnected again and after that active sync worked again....
but thanks for the tool, i'll try that out, too. (maybe there are some other interesting things, too ;-) )
Connecting and disconnecting worked for me too
Hi everyone.
I have a question concerning the Wifi.
Although I can connect to my Wifi router, I can't go on internet using Opera.
Is there a special option to activate ? Because I tried almost everything on the phone but nothing works.
Thanks for your help.
I changed my rom (unfortunatly, I don't know which one I have, a friend did it for me) but I don't think it matters since I can connect to my router.

Wifi, try this: Settings->Connections->wlan->powermode: turn it to best performance
How to know which rom you have: At the bootscreen the bottom text OR Settings->System->Device Information: ExtRom version: **
If you are sure WiFi is working (for example you could try to connect your PC with Total Commander) check:
Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks -> Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:
I have: "My work network" here and Opera utilizes this connection with no problems.
Good luck.
