thursday of last week (oct. 9. 2003), my msn messenger stopped working. when i try logging in, i'm told 'login failed because the service is not responding'. up until this point, it had worked perfectly. a week before it stopped working, i started getting messages from msn that a new security update was available. i installed this update AFTER messenger stopped working, in an attempt to get it back (no luck). i've tried downgrading to 3.16 without success. i'm now back on 4.16. my radio-stack is t-mobile 6.24. no changes were made to the phone when messender suddenly stopped working.
also, i use the node wap.voicestream.com (i was never able to get internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com to work). finally, i have this problem when both connected through gprs AND cradle.
anybody with same problem / a solution?
I have the same problem. I cant connect to AIM or MSN Messenger. I've been posting, but nobody has been replying to me either!!! I tried everything!!
I think mine stopped working around the same time too!!
Try using wap.voicestream.com as your AP.
HTH
hi qman,
i'm currently using wap.voicestream.com... it's the only node i can connect to. it's still not letting me log into msn messenger, though... i haven't tried aol im, but expect i would have the same problem as david...
david, what version radiostack/os are you running?
Well at first I was using the one created by this site (XDA developers Special Edition ROM v1.2) and it was working fine, but it stopped working, so I upgraded to the Tmobile 4.0.16 from Jeff's kitchen, but same problem
David, are you in the Atlanta area? Trying to decide whether this is phone or location specific.
Also, are you running the standard radio stack from t-mobile? i've upgraded mine to 6.24, but don't think that has anything to do with messenger not working.
finally, do you know which node you're using for connecting with gprs?

Bin where are you located?
As of today (10/15/03 the magic date) its taking a mighty long time to login with the wap.voicestream.com AP. Oh well I guess its back to internet2 for now for MSNM usage.
BTW I'm running AT&T radio stack A.20.10, T-Mobile network.
HTH
Qman,
I'm in Atlanta -- where are you? Two of my friends in this area have the same phone -- one can connect to messenger fine, while the other can't.
can you connect to messenger with internet2? my sim card hasn't been authorized on any other node other than wap.voicestream.com, so i might have to call tmobile tomorrow and have them open up internet2/internet3 for me.
except for messenger, all gprs seems to work perfectly normal (bandwidth etc.)
I'm in Las Vegas, NV and yes I'm able to connect to messenger with internet2.voicestream just fine, wap.voicestream is just faster overall.
HTH
me too! im in california... i did have that problem all of the sudden, but after i hard reset, it worked again. (internet2.voicestream.com)
not sure about that wap thing, never used it.
i'd love to use the mms on xda
i finally got it resolved -- apparently my tmobile subscription was for t-zones (10$ per month), which they apparently last week decided should not include any of the messenger services, and therefore shut them off. up until that point, everything had worked perfectly with the wap.voicestream.com node. today, all internet features except for msn messenger and aol im works with that node.
i had to upgrade to tmobile internet (10$ more per month), to be able to regain access to these services (now i connect through internet2.voicestream.com)
:lol:
I cant get on msn messenger and call T-mo, they told me that msn messenger service is no longer a part of T-mo's service. Can someone verify this. And what's the difference between internet2.voicestream.com and internet3.voicestream.com the rep i talked to seemed reluctant to open up internet3.voicestream.com. I've just purchased the PPC for $100 and also have the data plan for 19.95/mo. What's next best thing I could to do this new found joy of mine ? Thanks in advance.
hi nutz -- check out http://msmobiles.com/news.php/1231.html. it maybe can offer some clues. the article deals with a required update to messenger that, if not installed, disables your messenger after oct 16...
i'm on internet2 right now, and messenger works like a charm...
Messenger Update.
My msn messenger stopped working on AT&T and I had just run accross the msn messenger update for pocket pc and now my device works fine. it may not have been the AP. I would try that before you start switching AP's.

MSN Messanger not Working
All,
I had the same issue - After an extensive trawl through the Microsoft Site for PPC there are 2 updates available for MSN Messanger - PPC2002 and WM2003. I applied them and Messanger works fine now.
I have forgotton the website links but will email the files on request. Please state PPC or WM versions
Al
Microsoft released a Messenger Update. Old NOT Functional
I had the same problems with AIM and Messenger and then found out that MS had changed the login and authentication methods due to a " security vulnerability" :shock: :shock:
You can download the update here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/resources/msnmessenger/default.mspx
PS: This resolved my problems. Make sure you download the Pocket PC phone edition for your device ( ie: PPC 2002 or WM 2003) They are different!

Hi,
I have searched the forum to see if anyone else has experienced this problem, but cant find any posts. The porblem I'm having is that I can log into MSN messenger fine on T-Mobile uk GPRS. But aftrer a few minutes it looks like the connection drops and logs me out of MSN. Or makes me believe I'm, still logged in but my contacts do not recieve messages, lol. Now this is the strange bit, it doesnt log me out of any other web based applications and the connection is still live. I thought I could manage with this for a while and it would get better, but it seems to be getting worse and much more frustrating. I have updated MSN messenger to the latest patch so thats not the problem. Here are my device details below. I hope someone out there can help me with this problem.
Rom version 4.00.11 ENG
Rom Date 06/23/03
Radio version 4.21.00
Protocol version 32S54

Chris
Hi ...
Try to access your MSN account using Imov s/w. If the problem persists then it's your account or the network itself. In case not, then it's MSN messenger problem and in that case try soft reset your device .... or even hard reset (pain ) .... the worst is that you will have to reflash the ROM or to upgrade it to another version :roll: .
For some reason I can do everything through Wifi except send emails. I can successfully receive my emails, view them, download attachments, browse with internet explorer, and chat on all messenger programs! I have spoken to upper tier level support people at T-mobile and they confirmed my outgoing settings are correct. I use yahooo small business email server and outgoing is set to: smtp.bizmail.yahoo.com. Can anyone help me with this problem?
This is the error message I get: "messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then try to download messages again".
timing
Is this a problem that you have just encoutnered or a longer running one. I find that I sometimes get this message if my PC is off (killing the wifi network) or if my internet provider webmail server is down. It may ahve been a glitch that will sort itlsef.
Don't bother phoning and paying fpr Tmobile support - trust me - they don't know anything about the phone you have - stick with the forum!
Hi, I've had this problem from day 1, never been able to send emails
try this
you could try instead of outgoingserver smtp.bizmail
just type in this text smtp.mail.yahoo.com
and furthermore leave the boxes requires ssl connection and outgoing mail requires authentication OPEN.
hope this works for you as it works for me.
Thanks for the suggestion... Tried it, but still no success. Anybody else?
outlook
DO you use outlook elsewhere for this/these accounts and have you double checked that the settings are identical?
Can you send via GPRS?
I have read and read and browsed and downloaded and typed and entered and so on!!!!! But none of the solutions or cabs seems to work for Erofich's Standard 6.1 1.1.7 version. I am on the Cingular/AT&T network. Does anyone have the fix? I can send MMS but cannot download.
Have the same problem but can download picture not audio files

i have the settings if you want them. the cab files wouldnt work for me either. just pm me or just ask in the forum.
settings
they are also on the att website.
Yes, the settings on the ATT website WORK, but not completely. The MMS header will download, but you can't view any pictures. This must be a ROM issue - I've tried everything I can think of!
Finally resolved
This is one of those occasions where you are not sure what fixed it in the array of changes, but it worked, so don't argue with results.
I went in and cleared out all the settings that came by default with the 6.1 ROM. (Proxy, GPRS, MMS, etc.)
I then input by hand the settings on the AT&T website at:
http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=cingular&thread.id=84238
Thank you Firewulf for the kind offer. I am curious to see what your settings are though.
I get alerts, I am able to send and receive all MMS messages as well as txt msg and Exchange Outlook email. No ERROR SYNCHRONIZING anymore!
Strange... my internet works (as well as all my internet enabled apps), texting works fine, but MMS is still a no-go! I don't get "error synchronizing" anymore... it just tries to send and always fails 5 minutes later! I have checked and re-checked the settings - I am running the latest WM 6.1 Standard ROM from this forum.
Is it just me or is anyone experiencing a "Forbidden" error when sending/receiving MMS after updating to AT&T's new ROM with 1.14.25.35 Radio?
I've reflashed the updated AT&T ROM and then flashed NRG's latest 6.5 ROM with the correct Rilphone.dll and still have the Error. I even tried sending from the new stock ROM and got the error. I did this multiple times to make sure it wasn't a bad flash and still have the "Forbidden" error. Did I do something wrong when I flashed the new ROM and Radio? The settings in MMS are correct and I didn't load anything else prior to testing MMS.
At first I thought it was AT&T and wasted over 30 minutes with a rep that knew next to nothing. Then it dawned on me that this all started after I updated to the new ROM/Radio release for AT&T on HTC's website. So, I reverted back to the original shipped ROM with 1.02.25.32 Radio, flashed NRG's latest 6.5 ROM and can now send/receive MMS.
I had the same forbidden error and had to talk to tech support from att.. apparently it's because i had placed my sim into an iphone and we all know iphones can't send mms so it registered into their system that i was using an iphone thereby causing the iphones imei to register to my number hence why it's forbidden to send/receive a mms. did you perhaps do something similar?
ATT0001 file can't open it
Hey Guys... sorry than I can't help to solve your problem.. But i have a problem too with the MMS... what happens is that every time I send or receive a mms to a windows mobile phone comes as ATT0001 file and I can not open .. I need help with this thanks
Loner2DEnd: I did but only to unlock one. I've done this before and have never had that problem up. I only noticed that I wasn't able to send/receive MMS after I had the official update from HTC for the FUZE. I was on the phone with the tech and they told me that using my SIM in an iPhone wouldn't have updated my account. You can log onto your online account with AT&T and see what phone/IMEI is registered with your account. Mine still has my FUZE and correct IMEI. Everything is working now that I reflashed the original shipped ROM with the 1.02.25.32 Radio.
I downloaded another copy of the ROM update from HTC for the FUZE and ran the same tests to see if maybe it was a corrupted file/bad flash and I still had the same issues with MMS. My internet still worked but I got the same Forbidden Error. For now, I'm going to just stay with my current (original shipped) Radio since everything's working.
Dannyedilber: I'm not familiar with that Error. Sorry man. I don't know much about MMS and had to do some homework and some trial and error to finally find this solution. Maybe one of the seniors can answer your question.
I've had this problem a few times but usually fixes itself after a reset or a quick disconnect/reconnect of the radio.
I find that if I leave my data on for an extended period of time, it seems to happen. Almost like AT&T is seeing the high traffic and cutting me off.
Also check to make sure you guys don't have Data disabled in your accounts.
@Dannyedilber: I don't even know what an "ATT0001" file is?
@Loner2DEnd: My wife just returned her iPhone because she said it sucks compared to Windows Mobile (smart girl eh?) and went back to her old Samsung Blackjack. We did this yesterday, after her having the iPhone for a little under 30 days. I just sent her a picture and she got it.
From AT&T
The data network works for all of our devices and the Windows Mobile devices are the only ones that seem to have had some issues with the way the data network is configured. Rather than trying to re-configure and potentially break the network for other users, we have been working on a fix for the Windows Mobile issue. We have a fix that will be implemented by the end of this quarter and we should have the problem resolved at that time.

From AT&T
Just wanted to let you know that I did get an update. The project to "fix" the 403 error is moving forward. Right now we plan to have the implementation complete in June with Project closure in Early July. I will follow up again in about a month to see the status and provide closure information.
Just for clarification: This project hasn't slipped a month, we keep the project open during a "soak" period to ensure that everything is going as expected. Also, as we apply the fix to the elements in the network the fix will be applied to certain markets and complaints should drop for that market dramatically. I haven't seen this issue in a while here so I believe that the patch has been applied for the Minneapolis market.

An easy temporary fix is to put your phone into flight mode and then take it out. A new data connection almost always works. Worst case scenario soft reset the phone.
so its by market then?
I flashed the new rom about last week, had no issues receiving and sending MMS on it and on NATF's 4.7 rom.
Still No MMS

My MMS is not working incoming or outgoing. I have tried it from TF3D2, Titanium, after reset, after airplane mode and reset with no success. I put my SIM card in my backup phone and MMS send and receive worked flawlessly. I do not get the forbidden error message some of you have gotten; it just does not work. I have reset the RegEdit keys several times and they are currently set at 1.2mb. I know that 6oo K is at&t max, but the two test MMS messages are 77K and 317k. Thanks - David.

It sounds like you have a different issue altogether. My posts were answers from AT&T strictly for the 403 forbidden issue.
Player911 sorry that I was not very specific...whats happening is when I send a ATT MMS to someone who have a HTC touch pro to her hotmail account.. she can't open it because the picture come as ATT0001.. even when I send att MMS to myself at my email account I receive as a ATT0001
Need help with this guys.. please
Sorry my english
Hi All:
First off thank you for the info in resolving this issue. Since swithing back to the original shipped ROM with radio 1.02.25.32 then flashing EnergyROM 3.0 Phoenix 6/12, I've had no problems with MMS Forbidden Error. It's been a week now and I've had no data/network issues either. I'll try again with the new Radio/ROM this weekend when I have some free time and will report back. Thanks everyone!
Tru using a registry editor and go in and change the registry in Arcsoft under HKLM>Software>Arcsoft>Arcsoft MMS UA>Config>MM1>MMSCSetting>SampleMMSC>Wap1SendDefault and Wap2SendDefault and change to a desired number. For instance, I have 102400 set to send up to 1MB.
See if that allows you to send.
try enabling ATT's proxy. This always works for me.
1. Enable the proxy
2. Kill the data connection
3. Reconnect data
4. Try sending or receiving.
This has worked countless times for me.
Hi Guys,
I am connected to the corp Exchange server and most of the times, email works fine. However, there are many times email does not update. And if I try to manually refresh, I get one of the following errors.
- Unable to connect to server
- Unable to open connection to server due to security error
I know my settings are correct and there is no problems with the company Exchange enviornment. Any suggestions?
Thanks
if your settings are fine and no corp network issue, then there's only a couple more options left as the cause. The way I see it, its gotta be either:
1) AT&T network
2) corporate network
3) problem with the phone / incorrect settings
are you stock?
Hi
Good points.I am on serendipity 8. It's strange that it works great at times but then nothing. For example I am up in pa this weekend
And no corp email since last night. I can't even send. But gmail and internet is working fine.

I suppose the obvious of a password expiration or similar? I use both CM7 (Captivate) and Unnamed (Galaxy S2) with two different exchange accounts, plus I use corporate Address book with one, and everything works great. I know that's not terribly helpful, but for what it is worth. Maybe try the corporate address book, see if that works -- might at least validate the overall path and credentials (though you do need to re-enter the credentials).
