Installed Opera and it works fine.
For some reason, IE doesnt seem to use my GPRS connection to connect to the internet. If I enable Wifi, it works as well.
I noticed this trouble after flashing the rom to Dutty's TouchFlo AT&T beta 2. IE displays "Locating" in the status bar. After a couple of minutes I get the pop up message "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later."
I changed my network setting to use the same GPRS provider for both internet and private networks.
I can active sync with my exchange server. I can get weather updates. I can RDP my exchange server. All signs of internet connectivity are present.
I can live with Opera, but it beats me why and where in the registry is this set.
I have googled and researched on the net, most i found was a registry setting that pointed to the user agent. but i later found out that it wasn't necessarily causing the issue. It just instructed the site that you were a mobile device and too spit out a mobile page if available.
Your help is appreciated!
Update
Ok this issue is resolved when i reverted to the original HTC Kaiser ROM...dont know why this happens only with dutty roms.
Giving Custel Roms a shot to see if this is still an issue
IE Cannot Browse Internet via GPRS/3G
I have exactly the same issue with my HTC 8525 Cingular with the original WM 6 ROM from HTC Web Site.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!!

I'm kinda in this boat as well, it works 1/2 the time on my stock AT&T Tilt ROM. I have noticed that if I do a soft reset, it will normally work.

Call your carrier and ask if there are any reports with GPRS/3G access at the area where you have problems. Sometimes a faulty cell transmitter can cause this.

I'm reasonably sure it's the phone, happens at home, happens at work, happened on vacation in both San Antonio and South Padre Island.
From what we have heard on here for US settings you may to disable 'Use Proxy settings' for your connection. That may help.
IE Cannot Browse Internet ...
so sorry guys but i may be posting this under an inappropriate post...
but my problem here is that i cannot browse Internet via active sync USB connection. it is giving me an error saying "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later".. this is strange but i was able to browse before. this happened suddenly and i haven't changed any settings. Tried remedies posted on other forums, how ever it dint work for me, Appreciate if any one could help me.
cheers
It happens because it is a AT&T based rom. They orinally configured the rom to use a Proxy server. There is a program i have which unregisters the proxy from the registry and Walla!!!!!
It happeed to my WM6, same here can use IE to surf internet by GPRS or USB, after disable proxy setting, is bck to normal, thanks!!
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Internet settings\EnableAutoDetect = 1
It works!!!
I had similar issues with Orange in the UK.
Received phone on Dec 7th, worked an absolute dream til the 11th when started dropping calls (issues with 3g network) and unable to connect to the internet via IE though Blackberry/Opera could still connect.
Well, after 3 handset replacements and everyone at Orange having no idea I think I figured it out. It's the Blackberry software. It seems to 'trick' IE into thinking there is a present GPRS connection, but obviously the Blackberry connection seems to use different broadcast ports where as other apps like Opera actively try to 'lock on' to a valid GPRS signal.
So, long post short... Spend the $24 and get Opera and leave IE to be confused by itself. Oh, and don't expect the 'tech support' at Orange to ever know what's going on!
Which program

Great reg mod pal, thanks a lot. It does really work ppl!
There is a program under Programs->Tools->Proxy Manager to disable the proxy, and now IE works normally..Thanks to the folks who shared the information
Hi,
I am trying to make my t zones work for the internet and I somehow made it work for the web access. But when I try to connect with the Live messenger, it tells me that there is no signal and that: "There is connectivity problem..."
When I am on WiFi it works without a hitch and when I am through USB as well. Just not through GPRS. I do not see it even attempt to connect through GPRS. Is there a way to tell it to connect through wireless?
Thanks
T-Zones is a proxy service and Messenger will not work with a proxy. For this, you need the full T-Mobile internet service plan ($20/month). At some point, it is assumed that the T-Zones work around to get internet access will probably go away... you really aren't supposed to use T-Zones the way many are using it. Until that time, consider yourself lucky to be getting access for email and web browsing.
yup, I am lucky

OK, I found out that the problem was on the T-mobile side. They did not activate the plan, but it is weird because I was able to got online couple times. Right now it is working, just like you said - internet, but not messenger. I think that at this point I will stick with T zones. Since T-mobile does not offer 3G, I do not know if to invest in $20 plan. I get through T zones pretty slow connection, but I do not know if through data plan you get faster connection. Anybody?

Data plan does not get you faster speed, but you could use socket services to say play online games or use different IMs, and of course if you travels a lot around airport or stay at starbucks a lot, the hotspot is a real plus, for just $14 more a month...

I have tryed all tmobile setting and different rom but i still can not get t-zone to work..
That is odd?

I actually changed to Data Plan, because the Hot Spot is really nice for my laptop and so I got it. The odd thing is I did not have to change anything in my settings and they still work. Have not tried the Proxy server yet for IM yet.
Check some forums, I think somebody posted exact setting on the forum, but I can give you mine:
WAP: 216.155.50:9201
Secure WAP: 216.155.165.50:9203
Socks: 216.155.165.50:1080
This should work just fine for the data (does fine for me). I know that somebody also posted a cab file for T-Mobile settings, look up the forums the name is tmobyjoe599
Good luck!
Hey either yesterday or day before it came on the market I saw, a G1 FTP server to allow you to transfer files to your G1 via ftp. I know personally its nifty but so far I havent been able to get it to connect. =/ Anyways I thought Id bring it up here since not sure if its been talked about yet but Im sure the interest is here. =)
Any Dyndns for the G1 yet? =D
It's been up for a long time. Personally I have no idea how to set it up Search DynDns in Market. I think there's an application.
Anyone use either yet and have it working? Can it have the ability to read the ext2 files as well via ftp? That would be awesome.
I downloaded it a while ago, only used it once to test but it worked well.
I just use the usb cable for file transfers though because my G1 doesn't pick up wifi as well as the laptop from the distance to my router.
Yea but wouldnt the FTP server work via EDGE network?
Don't know the situation in your country/operator but from what I've seen in Europe, you're always connected in your operator's private network.
So you get an IP like 10.x.x.x or anything else that is not reachable from the internet. So no server software can run on your device with such an IP.
hrm then wonder how 3G does it..
The Dev did do 3g but couldnt test it according to the last update he did. I know when I start up it says Starting 3G Network.
Hey.
I've gotten the Tellme App working on the AT&T Fuze (the one ripped from the Intrepid rom), so I thought I'd share my successes.
ROM: TAEL
Device: HTC Fuze
Network: AT&T
I have Bing, Voice Command, and .NET CF 3.5 installed before I ran this.
The install worked, though I did have to soft reset to get the app to run.
In order to get it to work properly, I had to use WiFi, because Tellme has AT&T's servers blocked.
Also, I had to say something, wait for the first Tick on Thinking..., then cancel and resay it.
Video of it running:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoWb0qvSk0w
Has anyone else gotten this to work?
Error message Info
Can't access mobile network - The app cannot connect to it's transcription server. Normally because the server blocks AT&T.
Hmm, don't recongnize that contact. - Not sure.
Repeatedly "Thinking..." - After the first *Tick*, click cancel and re-say the question.
More added once we get them figured out.

any luck anyone on AT&T yet other than wifi/activesync. It seems to run fine on other carriers....
maybe an IP spoof thingy or something like that will get around it?
did you try changing your DNS servers for your internet connection? use openDNS's
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

where do I change those? under MediaNet - advanced settings? Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I FOUND WHERE TO CHANGE THEM...TESTING NOW...
DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK STILL ON GPRS AT&T....ONLY WIFI/ACTIVSYNC
Work around for Tilt 2, but want Better
Has anyone gotten this to work on a Tilt 2 (at&t's TouchPro2)??? The only way I've been able to send transcribed texts is to do so with the phone connection disabled, while having a WiFi connection. The message won't actually send through the WiFi connection but when I enable the phone connection after, I can go to my texts & see it there with the "was not sent, try again?" notification. Selecting try again get's the job finally done. It's a rather long, tedious process of sending a text message. Probably could have typed it faster. Until this works on at&t's network, it's not really a worthwhile program. Voice command already does most of the same functions. But I would like using the speech to text message while driving(no WiFi signal there though). Any luck, Anyone???
I was wondering if anyone had any luck trying to get TellMe to work on 3G on AT&T yet?
I just found a .cab file on my hard drive, and I tried to get it to work but no luck. only though activesync and wifi does it work.
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).
