bb connect not working - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
i downloaded bb connect from sony ericssons xperia page (usa). it installs fine but cant get it to stay connect through gprs (says suspended by user) and when i press the register button, nothing happens.
does anyone know why this is?
is it because gprs is not a good enough connection?

which version are you using? Here you have a lot of versions. 4.0.0.106 is the latest I guess, and that should be working on X1. Maybe you can register via wifi first, and then try to sync further via gprs?

using 4.0.0.106. when i turn on wifi it does nothing. its like the program does not recognize a wifi connecting.

you have to be set up on a blackberry tarrif to get it to work......also check your not supports this programme as i got changed 2 weeks ago for it only to be told by their tech support that the network doesn't support it. Also br careful if you have an unlimited web deal with it, as my network also told me that the unlimited web wouldn't work either.
oh yeah, i use o2 uk by the way

thanks, im with o2 uk. thats why its not working because they must be blocking it as i dont have a blackberry contract. about he unlimited web, they can exclude it as if u link your phone to a pc and use it as a modem they can recognize that so probably the same with bb connect, as the blackberry contracts are a lot more expensive (even though u get the same or less).

BlackBerry Available Cabs Here

ok just for everyone who was trying to get these, i have tried all of them, none work, maybe it's a problem in my BB account still not sure.
i linked all of them here for better support for guys like me.
hi,
I am on Cingular in the Us. Am I able to use any of these cab files to put blackberry on my Tytn or is it network specific and if it is, is there a generic blackberry client I can put on my device?
Thanks,

most of these 3 could work with any operator as i have been told before but still i think someone who succeeded to activate it would be better to give you the ok.
the Blackberry service depends on your registration with your operator not the application, these are just extracts From the ROMs provided by the operator meaning, you need GPRS, an active BB account to use them.
if your BB account is activated on the provisioning and at Blackberry i see no problem in you using them.

Thanks for this but my thought is, the company I work for has a BB support for exchange. I have GPRS and if I use the BB configuration which they supply, I should be good? right?

since your company uses exchange then apparently you are using Blackberry Enterprise ( meaning you have a license ) thus there is no problem for you to connect.
P.S. i have tried the 3 of them they do read the IP and APN, so i think you should be ok.
One concern though is the PIN, if your PIN is associated with another handheld you will have to contact your provider to deassociate it from the account on the provisioning site to be able to use it on another handheld.
It it possible for me to set up blackberry on a linux email server?
why should i want this
for as far as I know BB gives me pushmail and access to the company's global addressbook.
in wm5 they're both working for me without this BB function.
so, what else is there in BB I want to have?

If your company has Exchange with Direct Push, it gives you nothing. If your company had a Domino server and Blackberry, it would give you pushmail and addressbook (and calendar sync).
thx. @work there's a lot of BB devices in use by another part of our merged companies. All talking about their great BB funtions. I think that with my BA including pushmail and accessible global contacts including free/busy info, appointments, etc. I have a lot more functionality.
So you say we can use this BB cab files for both personal (which the BB service that operator gives) and work (which my company uses bb enterprise edition for). We can use for every bb service?
And what number will we use when they ask the PIN (what is it anyway) thing?
Thanks
Configuring Blackberry connect using a UK Tmobile ROM on non-Tmobile service provider
The latest Tmobile UK Rom supports blackberry connect but there doesn't appear to be anyway to configure. Anyone get blackberry connect to work with a non-Tmobile service provider using a BES?

when you setup the cab , after opening the application from start/settings/BlackBerry you will press i agree then you will be set in a screen where a PIN will be generated and connection and server status shown.
Yes you can use for Enterprise and Prosumer BB accounts.
configuring IP address for non-O2 UK
I reverted to the O2 UK ROM 1.40 with the BBConnect. Everything appears to be working but its only sending the message headers. I can do a lookup on my office address book but not receive the entire message contents.
I think the problem is because the IP address for the O2 UK blackberry server is hard coded in the installation as 206.51.26.189 and my office's BES is 206.51.26.xxx (other than 189). I have all three blackberry services loaded (ie. AUP, CICAL and CMIME) but these show an IP address of 206.51.26.192. On the BBConnect status screen it shows an IP address of 100.50.40.197. I'm not sure if this is coming from my local GPRS provider or the blackberry service.
I suspect the problem is that my messages are being routed through the O2 UK blackberry server and as such its only sending the message headers. If this is the case is there a way to modify the dll installation files to change the IP address to the IP address I am using in Indonesia? Which file would need to be changed?
Someone must have gotten this to work outside of the UK so any input appreciated.

Thanks for the answer.
Did you get any feedback about this?
Seems to me that the connection settings are in XML format in the BBConnectInfo_bb.dll. However this is signed/versioned so you cant just hexedit the address otherwise the dll wont load.
Unfortunately I have no experience with WM5 SDK.
I tried to install the CAB file but it says :
---------
Unable to install.
Uncertified system

if you are using WM5, i have no idea. i have tried it on wm2003 se and worked great.
also check certification, if you got this handset locked by Etisalat, you may not be able to use it.
i think we need a wm5 expert to advise on this

First of all .. thanks for replying me .. as i searched the net i found another CAB file. and i can send it to you or to anyone who likes.
but the problem now that it installed and connected. generated a PIN # .. stayed live connected for 5 minutes after that it disconnected . when i tried to reconnect it connects for couple of seconds then says disconnected.
so i would be trying something during the coming couple of days using a different mobile to see if the network is blocking me or the device have a problem.

I now have BBConnect working with my companies enterprise server and I am using Vodafone contract and HTC Wizard.
Last week I was using the Molski custom ROM (fantastic ROM btw) and for the love of god BBconnect would not connect. I would connect for a second or two and then disconnect.
On Monday I installed the latest Vodafone UK ROM that is posted on the FTP server. Reinstalled the Vodafone supplied software for BBConnect and Desktop SYNC, and then connected the phone up to my laptop and exchanged PINS using the supplied Desktop SYNC (BBCONNECT) software supplied my Vodafone.
My GPRS Modem setting is web.vodafone.de (I am based in Cologne) You dont need to enter blackberry.net
Disconnected phone from laptop and all works fine. If anyone wants more info, please let me know.

Blackberry Connect (2 or 4) and WM6

i thought to ope a new thread about this.
i tried to get bb connect on wm6 (at&t) versions 2 and 4.
i didn't get any of them to work.
did sombody succeeded in the meantime?
is there a new version coming up?
hope te hear...
Tried them both too on my 750C w/ WM6, unsuccessful. Right now I am on BBC 4.0.0.90, still not working, getting from: No Connection -> Network Available -> Data Tunnel Available (at this point gets an IP address) -> No connection. The PIN is never generated so BBC is unusable for now. I was following a thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294218 , tried to modify my AKU version (didn't try to modify the build in the ROM though) w/ no results.
In the mean while, Hermes/ATT 8525 w/ WM6 and BBC 4.0.0.90 works just fine. What are we missing here ? Anyone w/ a clue ?
I am happy that someone opened a thread for this, I hope we'll get a fix.
Thanks,
HC
i've upgraded mine with wm6 non attws , unable to connect on bbc4 as well
does anybody know the latest b uild of the bb connect software (and where to get it)
i have (downloaded from vodafone nl)
blackberry version 4.0.0.67
transport version 4.0.0.70
and does anybody has a list of new features in later releases
I have 4.0.0.90, check the thread that I posted above for links to download it. Also Google for "Blackberry Connect 4.0.0.90" and I am sure you'll get something. I think the 4.0.0.90 version is not specifically for Treo 750, it's rather for larger screen devices, like the Hermes etc. but it doesn't bother me scrolling a little bit in one or two tabs.
Good luck,
HC
i'm on 750v wm6.0 vodafone and can't get bbc4 to work
not even 2.1
argh!
pissing me off!
I recommend you just to wait a couple of days with the device switched off. I have a HTC Touch, vodafone, Germany. Downloaded Blackberry 2.1 and 4.0, didn't work. Never got a PIN ("PIN pending"). Read somewhere that it worked after a couple of days, so I switched my device off and was frustrated. I even wanted to sell it on eBay already. After 2 days I switched it on again, and, guess what, I had a PIN in the Blackberry software!!! Then I configured my Touch using BlackBerry Activesync Software, and it's now working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Version 4.0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So my recommendation: Try to wait 48 hours.
Currently no BB client is working with WM6 Treo, no matter if you use 2.1.2.52 or 4.0.0.67 or 4.0.0.90. Its always the same, as soon as you connect to the BlackBerry infrastructure you are blocked >>> no IP-adress >>> no connection. Sometimes you can connect one time and when you send the PIN via register now you lose the connection and never get it back again. RIM blocks all device/client/provider combinations which are not supported by the providers. So if you have a provider who supports BlackBerry on WM6 Treo you should be able to connect. I have not found a provider who is doing that so far. The same is with HTC S710. This device worked fine with BB connect 4.0.0.67 for some time, but now you are blocked by RIM if your provider does not support BB on the device.

Wrong. I have been using BBC 4 on my Hermes for months with AT&T and as far as I know the Hermes is supposed to be a "blocked" device. It's not that RIM is blocking it, it's that the software has to be HEX edited to work with WM6. No version of BBC will work on WM6 on the Treo until someone smarter than me can cook up a ROM that is HEX edited to run BBC.
Anyone succeeded in gettings this to work - I'm about to flash to Wm6 so better be sure...

I just got this and it works perfectly on my S710. I had got wipe the device and do a fresh install of the application. Give it a shot. Make sure you have an Active Sync connection to your device before trying to install.
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_standard_bb_4.0.0.84.zip
On the AT&T Rom you get Uncertified System Software detected on the install. I assume this is because the S710 is a smartphone rather than a WM device?
Strange thing today on my 750c - Got PIN
Hi all,
It seems that something is changing w/ either RIM or ATT. I installed again today BBC 4.0.0.90 onto my 750c w/ WM6 ATT leaked ROM, after the normal reboot, surprisingly, BBC service connected to the network and I got a PIN. Clearly it said "Connected" on the status tab. Well, I connected the device to my laptop and ran the BBC Desktop, the system was provisioned properly (I think ...), Notes Backend, but now it fails to connect to Blackberry, same symptoms as before, even after multiple soft resets, see comments above. I'll play around some more w/ it and let you all know if I get anything to work. In the mean while, if anyone else has any success, please share ....
Good luck
HC
PS. Posted this in the "Palm Treo 750" forum too ... hope I don't bother anyone

Installs fine. Gives me PIN and IMEI but no IP and no connection. IT says Network Available and tries to reconnect every few mins. I'll wait for few hours before unistalling it. Sometimes Blackberry Service can take little bit longer to register on USA T-mobile provider.

WiFi Router HELP!!!

I may sound like a newb but here goes, how do i turn my tilt into a wifi router so i can connect such things as my psp, xbox360, etc. to the internet? Ive read and everyone says theres a program on the phone to do this but i dont see this great program. Im using dutty's newest rom apr 01 and not seeing this wifi router program/app anywhere. Is there a cab for this? Anyone know how to connect such devices to the internet using my phone? I have the unlimited data plan through att. Thanks!

You aren't the only one. I've never been able to get it to work on my Tilt, when I used to use it all the time on my Mogul.
I hear now this program costs money. If no guarantee for tilt compatibility, can refunds be granted if it doesn't work?
I must say that the IT manager at my job has this program installed on his Tilt and it works fine. He actually used it in a meeting the other day when the main signal was too weak.
He is just so busy that I haven't been able to have him check out my phone, to see what is the problem. So there is some hope for Tilt owners and WMWIFIRouter.
Worked fine on my Tilt running Sleuth 3.0 Rom.
Try the earlier version, it is still free and it works fine (just a little less polished).
I tried the WMWiFiRouter .91 once. My tilt took too long to connect to the ad hoc network so I stop using it. I think that's the problem. You have to wait until your phone to connect to the network before the router starts working.

Diamond as Modem with O2

hi guys i just added the unlimited web browsing option with o2 on my diamond as we moved into a new flat and we dont have braodband yet.
o2 said i cant use my phone as a modem though, they dont allow you to connect to the net via your computer. i think she meant if i put the sim card into a usb modem.
But im wondering can anyone confirm whether or not i will be charged extra for syncing my diamond to my laptop and using the phone as my modem??
thanks
anyone?.....................
I don't see how they would know?
Other than the excessive downloading...
hey,
i do this all the time and they never know. do you have unlimited web on phone?
You can indeed connect your phone to your pc and use it as a modem to access the internet. When you connect your phone to your pc you should have the option to choose "internet sharing" mode which allows this. However although i have an XDA Ignito I am running a cooked rom and i'm not sure if "internet sharing" is available as an option on the standard o2 rom. Either way if you do have that option it wont cost you anything as long as you keep within the fair usage policy.
thanks guys, i basically used it yesterday and checked my charges today and no extra charges so all seems ok. i have the unlimited web, run a cooked rom with the internet sharing option on a diamond so works fine and is actually quite fast!
i think you are right if you use it a lot to download films etc they will find out, shame but never mind hopefully sky will hurry up and install our BB soon
Thanks again for the help!

Blackberry connect

Hi dude's,
My questions is quit simple.
I have gsm from my work. Thats great, no cost in mobile calling...
But, i dont have acces to a datanetwork (it is not supported by my abbo.)
Now some employees have a blackberry. I can try to get a BB to. But then i want to put that abbo/simcard into my Fuze...
But does that work?
1 Do i have dataconnection on my HTC then? So can i then use opera/google maps/ youtube then?
2 Does BBC works on my HTC, like synchronise mail and calendar.
3 if 2 is yes, where can i get the right BBC version for my energy rom 1.6.x
All this because i cant get away with it (on my workt) just to say that i only needed the datanetwork...

If you're going to ge taking the SIM out of the BB and replacing it in your Fuze, then you will have no problems at all with a data connection. Assuming you have AT&T, then this is the only difference (I picked a customer service rep's brain):
AT&T needs to know that your phone is a BB so that it can get e-mail.
AT&T only needs to know your Fuze is a smartphone so they can charge you a huge amount of money...
BB connect & Data plans are the same $$$
To sum it up: When you place the SIM in you Fuze, AT&T will still think you are using a BB, but don't worry. You won't be limiting your features. You would only limit features on a BB by not having BB connect. It doesn't work the other way around
Hope this helps
Oke, thx for the quick reply.
But i wonder, i do have the dataconnection then. But can i also recive emails from my work then? And sync my work-agenda over the air? Or is that one of the BB features you mentioned?
And is that where BBC comes in?
