Those with Tilt...can you get ICS?

Hey guys,
Im having a hard time figuring out why I cant get ICS working with my AT&T data plan. When in the ICS window, I select usb or bluetooth, then medianet, and hit connect. I immediately get an error "cannot connect for unknown reason". I cant sem to find a solution this problem. Can those of you on AT&T that have ICS working tell me what data plan youre on and what settings you have in connections? Thanks for all your help!!

I am on Medianet Personal Unlimited, the $39.99 package. Works like a charm, did you select USB and medianet as the internet connection method? I think by default it selects At&T GPRS as the connection method.

Yeah, I tried both available connections, medianet and ATT ISP, and on USB and bluetooth, still get the same error....I cant figure this out..How is your medianet connection setup (server, username, proxy)? Thanks for your help.

Well, it shouldn't be a network connection setting on the device because whether you have the ATT or HTC ROM installed it automatically sets everything up just fine.
Where are you getting this error, on the phone or the computer? What OS are you running on your computer? Any other info with that error? Are you running the stock ATT ROM, or HTC ROM? Have you installed any third party apps?
Give us some more info so we can be of better help.
(I'm using MediaNet without a problem via USB and bluetooth, with and without the proxy)

OK, first off, the phone is not connected to to the pc when this happens, since I am trying to get it to work as a wifi AP. Phone is running stock AT&T ROM. I go into ICS window, select Bluetooth PAN and MediaNet, click connect, it says "need to activate bluetooth (which it does)and then immediately get the error, it doesnt even try and connect. I've installed 3rd party apps, but nothing that should interfere with data connection. Am I missing a step?

Do you mean that you're looking to use Internet Sharing over WiFi rather than Bluetooth/USB? If so, how, since that's not a valid "target" for either selection box? I suspect there's a hack involved here that might be your issue.
select Bluetooth PAN and MediaNet

Do you have any partnerships established with a PC? Maybe the error you're getting is related to that. Mine fires off a message about entering discovery mode whenever I launch it when Bluetooth is enabled.

The only time I get the "Cannot Connect for an Unknown reason" error is because I'm going after isp.cingular. I'd recommend re-running Connection Setup from Settings-Connections to see if in your explorations you've somehow damaged the Media Net configuration. To me, it sounds like you've got an issue on that end. For example - the Media Net connection doesn't appear as a "real" connection on my TyTN II when I hit Settings-Connections- Manage Existing. But it is selectable from the pull down under the Advanced tab-Select Networks. If I don't replace "The Internet" there, I'll get the error sometimes.

Yes, there is a sharing over WiFi hack posted, just need to make a registry change and point Bluetooth PAN to your WiFi adapter. But even before I make that change, I stll get the error

I have a BT partnership which works fine.

My MediaNet connection is wap.cingular and otherwise works fine.
When you go to HKLM\Comm\ConnectionSharing\PrivateInterface in your registry, what value do you show there? I keep changing mine to BTPAN1, but when everytime I go back into the registry, it shows up with no value at all (deletes the BTPAN1). Could this be it?

I want it to use WiFi as default when available

Hi, I got my TyTNII (kaiser) on saturday and have just managed to sort out the wireless client at work.
I don't get free bandwidth from Orange so don't really want to be using my Orange web connection when I am actually connected to wifi at work. How can i set my phone to use wireless when it is connected rather than trying to open even more connections? Its really annoying as it keeps checking my email accounts and using HSDPA to do so.

Internet Explorer wont even use the Wifi
what use is a phone with wifi if it wont actually use the wifi to access the internet?
Could someone point me at the settings. There must be a setting somewhere to get it to use the connection!

I have had no problem using WiFi with IE or any other browser. I always connect to my router via Comm Manager first (enable WiFi) and then open IE or another browser and surf the net.

Just click on the network card tab when setting up wifi and make sure that the card is set to connect to "the internet".
Your device will use a valid wifi connection if its available (before trying gprs/3g)

You may also try installing a CAB called "NoData" or "KasierTweak" that will allow you to temporarily disable data services other than your Wifi. This is what I use since I am not on a data plan (yet) with AT&T.

ah yeah - just found this - it was set to 'work' simply because its my connection at work. obviously WM counts that has being different to 'the internet'
seems okay now.
Thanks for the help

If you have an active wireless connection, it will automatically use that connection instead of your data connection regardless.

Tellme app running on AT&T Fuze

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

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.

Wifi accessing only local network (LAN), but not internet

After a hard reset the wifi is only accessing local network (LAN) addresses, not working for internet access. The internet always worked using wifi before, but now only for LAN.
Using total commander I can access my local network, connect to the computers and copy/paste files without any problem, but using any browser or trying to get weather data just don't work. For the weather it says "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. Retry?". I can retry forever, the same problem.
Also I have tried to changed the phone radio, but it didn't worked, so I put back the previous one. Maybe this is the problem, but I can't understand why. Is there some tool to fix/format/something radio memory, just like mtty for the rom memory?
Thanks

You could try to change energy mode to best (battery)performance:
start >settings>connections>wifi>advanced>energy mode
(sorry if used words are not all correct, translated from dutch)

I've fixed it. I've changed to static settings and now it works. Sadly I have to do that on all wifi hotspots.
Thanks for your help

I have same problem with wifi. I am connected to wifi, but i can't go on internet or update weather data.
what did u change to static settings?

Thank you why did i not think of that before all ways wondered why the dumb phone did not want to connect to the internet using it's Wifi.
Such a big problem and what a simple solution. LOL
And I have Searched Google before and no solution to this there.

[Q] galaxy s wifi problems

Anyone help, i'm unable to connect to internet via wifi. Phone sees my network and connects but then i can't view any web sites or even the market. I have tried forgetting the network and rebooting phone, it then finds wifi network i put in password, it connects, but then same. My laptop connects with no problems. Any ideas most welcome.

Backup data >> Factory reset phone .
jje

Thanks jje, phone is new to me, whats best way to back up. Phone came locked so i had to get it unlocked, If i do do a factory reset will it return to locked version or still be unlocked

The best way for the backup is to use Titanium Backup, you will find a free version on the market. You can backup all Apps and Systems Settings. It is easy to use and works very well with my SGS.

Thanks again, looked at titanium on the market, looks good, but it says i need to root phone which i'm not brave enough to do, any other good backup apps out there.

If you don't root your phone, you won't be able to do backups with data. Your best shot is to backup apps via file manager (ES File Manager, File Expert...) but then the Market won't update them anymore.
