GPRS not working after official HTC Rom upgrade :(

Hi,
I have a major problem. I can't get internet via gprs to work after the new 2.03 upgrade. I've tried two hard resets but nothing helps. The upgrade went fine and everything else works good, wifi & even MMS! which I think is strange since it uses gprs aswell... It sends and recieves MMS fine both with 3G, HSDPA & on Edge...
The connection wizard finds my correct settings and installs them, I've tried adding the correct settings manualy aswell. I've done it a million times before so I know it's correct. I have 3G coverage aswell since I can see the 3G on top. I don't use any static ip wifi connection either so the bug can be ruled out.
IE, Opera, Mail, Weather etc etc... nada, I can't get anything to connect. I see the arrows on top when it starts to connect and after a few seconds I get the connection error.
Please help, my phone feels worthless now...

try to get back to 1.93 and then re-flash the 2.03

Ok but is it possible installing this 2.03 again can help??? I mean so I don't have to go back to 1.93 first because I have no idea how to do it? I've not very experienced when it comes to changing roms since I always just flash the official ones...

Installed the older 1.93 again, still doesn't work
There seem to be no problem with the hardware since MMS works and uses GPRS, 3G, HSDPA & etc...
I think I give up, have to live without internet in my phone it seems

It's most likely a configuration problem rather than a hardware one.
Are you SURE the Internet access is configured EXACTLY to your provider's specifications?

Hi to all, please Owziee , did you fix your issue???
Hi, I´m from Spain and I have the same problem with my HTC Diamond. It was working very good with a cooking rom but after upgrade with the new original version from HTC don´t work GPRS connection.
I tested first with hard reset and second ,changing differents radios and spl in the way to found an answer for my problem but I didn´t found it.
I was checking the connection data from Orange for it was wrong but I saw all correct.
I created the connection manually first and automatically after it with the HTC Connection setup , but did´t work either.
Please Is there any way to fix it???.
Thanks in advanced

TMUK Compact IV to HTC 2.03 ROM - connection settings?

Hi,
Before anyone shouts, I have searched the forums and read hundreds of posts but haven't found the answer! I have a stock TMUK MDA Compact IV which is, to say the least, slow and unstable. It's totally stock at the moment and I want to flash it to the latest official HTC Diamond 2.03 ROM as there are plenty of reports of speed and stability improvements.
Question - will the GPRS/3G connection settings (and any other network-specific setup I need) automatically detect or will I have to manually configure them after flashing? The TMUK stock ROM hides the connection details so I can't make a note of them - I therefore want to be sure I have all the details I need before I blow the old ROM away!!
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Tim

I didn't use the latest official ROM, but the previous one automatically detected the network setting after 1 or 2 minutes of being "on air". You get a notification that network settings have been found, and it will ask if you want to install them.
So i assume the new ROM does exactly the same

Hi,
Do a search on Modaco, they have a cab that gives you the T-Mobile settings.
Regards

the rom will automatically pic up that its needs settings so you select the correct option then you accept the settings and all will be fine.im on TMUK with a Diamond and everything is sweet.

Upgraded fine - a few more questions!
Upgraded fine thanks everyone. I had to select my network and it automatically set up the connections. One strange thing is that if I selected "T-Mobile" the next screen of the wizard had a different network name listed! Seems that the names and connection details are mixed up, I had to go through each network and find the one with T-Mobile's settings behind it. Think it was "Fresh" in the end!
Anyway, a couple of strange things I've noticed and wondered if anyone could help. Apart from these, so far the ROM is a big improvment on the old one.
1 - My GMail account will only download over the air if I set the account to connect using my GPRS connection - if I leave it on "The Internet" it fails to connect even though the connections are configured so that "The Internet" links to my GPRS connection! Opera works fine, so it's a messaging issue.
2 - The main problem - I can't get WMWiFiRouter to install! I had it working fine on my old ROM, but when I run the cab to install now it just sits with the progress bar on zero with the rotating "busy" symbol forever. Other cabs install fine! Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tim

Never mind!
Never mind, looks like the cab file was corrupted somehow. Copied back from my PC and it installed fine!
Thanks,
Tim

Issues with the internet settings,nothing is working!

After having problems with my T-Mobile internet settings(MSN not working...and still) any of my internet applications are working, like youtube, facebook, spb online etc
I tried connect them throught WIFI but the problem still there...
I searched on internet for a long while trying to find an answer but nothing, I even rang T-Mobile and went to the shop(one with "technical service") and the answer from them was "3rd parties applications and cooked ROMS are not always reliable and they can have bugs"
I been fiddling with the network settings and unticked the proxy box but nothing happend and my apps still offline using hsdpa,3g,gprs or wifi connections
I have the MDA IV unlocked using "Duttys 5.2.20764.1.4.3_V4_Full_MSVC [2.03]"
Radio 1.00.25.03
Any help will be very appreciated!
Thanks a lot!

when i first tried using my tmobile sim in my diamond i had connection problems, it was cuz the auto settings tried to connect through a proxy, once i unchecked the box it was all good if you have already tried that i would suggest trying a new radio and if that fails try a hard reset or new rom

mistery but all works now even msn :|
thanks a lot bt yeah the problems always relays on the phone settings...

I know this post is about a million years old, but I want to THANK you! I have recently started collecting old Windows Mobile devices. I just feel like the old school phones had way more swag than what we have now. I have the old HTC Fuze. The internet thing was KILLING my peace of mind until I came across this. I unchecked the proxy and viola! The internet works! THANKS!!!!

Kaiser O2 to Vodaphone - web not working

Hi,
I have an O2 branded Stellar ie a Kaiser. Was working fine on O2 for internet, and just changed to Vodaphone (in the UK). Despite putting in the recommended settings of wap.vodaphone.co.uk username web/ password web into a new modem connection it won't go online. Any ideas from anyone who has done this?
Vodaphone won't help me - told me to called HTC!
cheers
Rob

Have you tried using HTC Connection Setup to reconfigure your connections?

HI - well I've been into Settings/Connections/Connections/Add a new modem connection and put in all the details I found here:
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
and it won't connect properly when I try to go online.
Or do you mean somewhere else?
thanks

If you go to Start, Settings, Connections, do you see an item called Connection Setup?
If not, try download and installing this cab on your phone. Once you install it, soft-reset and then go back to the same place mentioned above. Run Connection Setup and select your location and operator. It should configure your connections for you and restart your device (or prompt you to do it yourself).

Thanks this and another thread from Basti have got me up and running - voda needs a proxy apparantly...

The connection wizard will handle both networks

As someone who has used both Vodafone and (now) O2 in the UK on an HTC branded Kaiser, I've always found the connection wizard in the default HTC ROM to take care of things fully and automatically. Have you thought about putting an HTC official ROM on it? The wiki and numerous threads here at xda explain how it's done. I could never get the Vodafone Live Website to work with my standard TyTN II BTW so don't be surprised if it definitely doesn't work with an O2 version of the same phone

Email and sound problem on Diamond

Hi everyone
my first post, I have a problem with my Diamond on Orange.
My data connection seems to lock out if I have been in an area of low coverage this results in not being able to connect to my Gmail account using the email function of the phone.
I have downloaded and installed the wm 6.1 patch for fixing corrupt email account. The workaround now though is when it still locks me out of using my data connection I have to reboot the phone.
I have also installed the official new rom from the Orange site, can't access the HTC site ROMs as my device serial code is linked to Orange
It's very frustrating having to reboot your phone 6 times a day (my office is in a low coverage area)
also since last week the phone makes no sound for SMS, MMS, calendar reminders etc. I have checked the sounds associated with these events and they play ok when you click to test them but not when an SMS etc arrives
please help, I'm locked in to this phone till next Aug
Thanks in advance
Steve

Try this...
Rather than rebooting your device, have you tried going to the settings tab on TF3D, selecting communications and tap the 'Data Connection' setting? I'm not sure about the stock Orange ROM, it may not have the option to switch the data connection on and off. If it hasn't, try turning Airplane mode on then off again. Your connection should then be re-established.
As for your sound issue... make sure you have the check box selected for 'Events'. Go to Settings / Personal / Sounds & Notifications and check the top most box

Thanks for the info Graham.
I can confirm that the box 'Events (warnings, system events)' is checked but still no sounds on sms, calendar event etc
not sure where I find the settings tab on TF3D but can try the airplane mode tomorrow at work were I have the low coverage issue.
Thanks for taking the time to give the advice.
Is there a new rom out there I could install as a permanent fix for the data issue?
Thanks
Steve

Mmmm...
Not sure whether a ROM change will cure your problems. It may just be related to your carrier (Orange). I've tried numerous ROM's and radios, but never had an issue with the data. You could try flashing a different radio. Do you know what version your device is running now?
If you look here, you'll find all the various radios available. I'd definitely start with a radio change before flashing ROM's if you're happy with your Orange ROM that is

Hi
The Radio is 1.00.25.05, (ROM is 1.93.405.1 WWE)
are these any good ones or should I update to a new Radio
Thanks again
Steve

Mmmm...
That's what I thought... both the ROM and Radio version are very old (by XDA standards!). I would certainly upgrade your radio, if not the ROM as well. Make sure you upgrade the HardSPL first though or you'll end up with a nice paper weight!
Follow this tutorial to the letter and you'll be fine. That's all I did. Most of the custom ROM's here don't include a Radio, so you'll need to upgrade that seperately. It's all in the guide. If you've already upgraded the SPL, you can go ahead and flash a ROM / Radio.
The ROM I'm using is Gen.Y D2 R4.2 which you'll find in the ROM section along with a host of others. In my opinion, it's the best by far

Thanks Graham will read all the info and give it a go
Steve

Hi
Managed to get radio 1.13.25.24 on but can't find a live link for ROM Y D2 R4.2
any chance you could post one for me
Many thanks for all the help up to now, I'm realy looking forward to my Diamond working like it should
Thanks
Steve

Link...
Hi. The download links are halfway down Post #2 of the ROM thread... CLICK HERE

Hi
Thanks for all your help. I am now running on radio 1.13.25.24 and ROM Y D2 R4.2
Early days but there is defiantly some improvement in data connection/reception but I am still getting the issue where the data connection corrupts and won't connect even when full network coverage is restored.
Thanks for the workaround suggestion re turning airplane mode on then off this does work and negates having to re-boot.
Is there any way I can overcome the basic issue re the data connection corrupting in low coverage areas?
Is a radio available that will up the coverage even more, battery life is not important to me?
Thanks again
Steve

Tip...
Another way, which may be quicker. On the settings tab in TF3D, tap connections and you should have a 'Data Connection' option. If you switch this off to disconnect your GSM data connection, the next time your device needs to connect it will re-establish the connection. This doesn't help with your issue, but it is quicker than turning Airplane mode on and off.
It might be worth posting in the Radio thread to see if anyone has experienced this on Orange and found a workaround. Like I said, I've not experienced data issues like this, so I can't really help. You've changed your ROM and your Radio, so it seems it's not ROM or Radio specific... it does seem to point to carrier??

Hi Graham
I’ve spent some time getting used to the new ROM, it seems to be a big improvement over the standard Orange one and I do occasionally get a data connection in my office which is unusual. I think what I really need is some sort of signal booster stuck to the window.
One thing I notice with the new ROM is a lack of a calculator; can I add this on in some way?
Thanks
Steve
