I upgraded to XDA developers ROM v1.2 so that I could Unlock my SX56.
The phone Now successfully works but I can't figure out how to set up Internet connection settings, even with the help of Rogers customer service. All they could do was supply me with codes.
Can anyone give me a hand?
do u subscribe to GPRS services from rogers??
yes GPRS
go into settings->connections->connections
add a connection
choose gprs
type in access point
start a program which use gprs
it should start the grps
type in the login and password if your network
require it
choose that it should not ask you again
and you are online

I use a T-mobile ppc with a Swedish device carrier. Everything works fine except for the internet. I entered all the right information. But I won't get connected. An additional problem is that T-mobile has removed the GPRS authentication module. So I don't know how to investigate those settings. Does annybody have a answer to that?
You mean that it won't ask for a username/password when you create a new GPRS connection? If so, why don't you load the SE ROM then? It will ask you for authentication when you create a new connection.
Thanks for your response Carlos. Yes it asks for username and password and it tries to connect but then it either stops with no connection or asks me once again to enter the user name and password.
I wonder if I need the GPRS authentication module to know if the pap settings is used?
Don't get confused. I posted my question as guest Diderikus, but am a member now and use the name Andreas. Both are my names.
Well, I finally dare upgrading to SE ROM and my XDA works better than ever with good Internet Connection, thanks guys.
I have T/Mobile PPC Phone edition, I have just flashed to XDA 1.2
Can I surf in internet by using GSM Cellular line and no GPRS?
With my personal account?
how can I do it?
Something about AOL? I have an AOL Account and also AOL program for PPC but can' t commect to the net...
Thanks
Ye you can... But you need to contact T-Mobile to get the Settings for the Connection then:
Start => Settings => Connections => Double Click on "Connections" icon => Select "Internet Settings" => Click "Modify" => Click "New..." => Put your Network Settings and have a nice time,,,
Sorry I can not help more cause I'm not T-Mobile Subscriber...
thanks, but I have other SiM card, I live in Italy....
Whoever.... it does not matter what provider you have, but he should have this service...
You just need to call your Mobile Service Provider and ask for the Settings to connect to there Web Server through your PDA, like Phone Number, User Name, Password...etc
Surfing Internet using cellular line
Firstly you need to ascertain if your GSM sim card is data compatible or not with your GSM service provider. If it is you should be able to connect to your ISP without any trouble by just dialling your ISP number and entering your password.
You should also ascertain you have the GSM username and password for a dial up and not for ISDN or broadband with your ISP.
Hello,
again I have to turn to the XDA's developers forum specialists for help.
I had to hard-reset my XDA recently. After this I lost the dial up connection that I had with my orange SIM card (regular monthly contract).
It used to work perfectly fine, but now whenever I try to start the internet I receive the error message "unable to connect with current settings".
Orange helpdesk in the UK say they canot support the XDA, since it's not Orange authorized.
o2 helpdesk, says it's a provider problem, so it can only be dealt by Orange. So I am stuck in the middle :-(
What is the proper setting?
Do I need to type in a ISP, DSN no. and dial up no.?
Only filling in "orangeinternet" like in the past somehow does not work...
many thanks in advance

comments on my orange question.
Many thanks for the comments on my orange question.
I tried to fill in some of the data that you mentioned, the XDA stareted also asking for VPN, modem & proxy settings, proxy servers etc.
I noticed when it tried to dial it starts with 011.
Anyway after typing in orangewap, and username, it is now conncted.
On the screen it says dialing from "home" connecting to O2 mobile WAP?
But I can now surf the interenet again, which is fab.
Many thanks , Swifty!!!!
All,
Trying to figure out what is the best way to setup your network connections on WM6 roms. I'm currently a Tmobile user in USA. The data plan im on, uses a proxy server. So it created an interesting problem if any expert out there can figure this out. HEre goes:
network wizard creates : Tmobile Data, Tmobile mms, on top of the My work network (empty setting), My ISP. None of them uses proxy.
Ok then I went ahead added the proxy into Tmobile Data config then IE works, push mail works from mail2web. AOl emails,YAHOO emails, weather ...etc stops working cuz the proxy.
Ok I decided to play with network management settings like a lot people suggested: I picked My work network (empty setting) as internet, Tmobile Data as private network connect. Now AOL,YAHOO ...etc anything cant use proxy server works, but my IE and PUSH mail fails.
My question is are there ways to tie connection to each application? actually tie into each mail account.
I remember there use to be a skipping proxy cab somewhere, I'm willing to try that cab if someone has it. I just need proxy to be transparents to some mail accounts and maybe applications like HTC weather.
Thank you. Let me know if I confusses everyone.
All,
Ok i did a partial fix.
Changed all the aol,yahoo, accounts to use work connection.
push mail can only use internet connection which has to have proxy. now that my sync doesnt like it, will fail with unreachable sever during sync because of the proxy. More digging. I know there are more tmobile web users out there. anyone has other suggestions?
Hi guys,
I don't know where else to ask this, it has me totally stumped.
I just changed from O2 to Tesco pay monthly and I can't get my AOL and Gmail accounts to connect.
I've talked through the APN settings with Tesco but they're unable to figure it out either.
I can connect to the internet OK via a browser but my email accounts return an error when I go to inbox and send/receive:
"Cannot Connect", "Cannot connect with current connection settings, to change your conection settings, tap settings"
I've been through it many times without success.
My mail accounts are set up properly, they were working with the O2 SIM, and they connect fine and send/receive over WiFi.
Am I missing something?
(I also have 3 native SD android roms installed on the HD2, they won't even connect to the internet despite my best efforts, phone calls work fine though).
I put the Tesco SIM in an old Wildfire, and it configured correctly straight away
Spent all day googling and trying to figure this out
Help. :crying:
What was the settings they gave you ?
Was it WAP based internet .
What WM ROM are you using, do you have the HTC connection setup link in Settings>Connections as that has Tesco Mobile settings can auto install them.

Thanks for replying
APN: prepay.tesco-mobile.com
Username: tescowap
Password: password
Proxy 193.113.200.195
Port 8080
Yes, I believe it's WAP based.
Rom = 1.66.405.2 WWE
Radio = 2.15.50.14
Yes, I have the connection setup link and I've cleared/reset the database several times.
I also went into Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks and removed all the previous modem settings.
I've used the database settings and also the ones sent by Tesco by text.
Tesco seem to be pretty good, their helpline operator ran through all the settings using his onscreen WM6.5 representation of the HD2's menus (I was surprised they just didn't say "not supported"), but it still doesn't work.
I'm wondering if it could be the Radio Rom, as none of my Android Roms will connect to the internet, (although WM does)
It would be a major task to hard reset, as I have some critical work apps installed and configured just right, so I don't want to do that unless there's no other choice.
If you get another providers sim to work on internet then I doubt it device or radio but rather settings as WAP & proxy is a bit of a pain.
Try the following (I hope has small variation on what you may of tried already !, be sure double check typing & make sure the modem connection has the black selection dot in it once completed; settings>connections>connections>manage existing connections. Add a new modem connection ("New" soft key). Put a appropriate name for new modem connection and choose "cellular line (GPRS)" Next enter apn address, prepay.tesco-mobile.com . Next enter username, tescowap . and password, password . Finish . Under proxy tab , tick "this network uses a proxy.." Put 193.113.200.195 in proxy server box . Tap advanced and put 193.113.200.195:8080 for the first 3 (HTTP, WAP, Secure WAP) and 193.113.200.195:1080 for the last (Socks). Exit from settings then go back in & check you can see the new modem setting & that it the checked connection option, exit again & Soft reset & fingers crossed ...
I'm using a custom WM ROM so don't be put off too much if some details seem named differently.
You may want clean out existing settings or try couple of changes in details if doesn't work :-S
Not a keen fan of your radio version but it is a well used one & I not seen internet connection issues with it but you never know ! so a radio change maybe worth a shot if really come to an end on the settings !
Hi, this is a screenshot of the settings, I think I got it right?
It still doesn't work
instead of port 8080 try 9201 !
I do remember newer builds of Magicall software caused internet connection failure, u happen to have that by any chance !
Port 9201 disables all my internet connection and email still not working
I tried 8080 again, internet back but no email.
I don't have magicall, though I wish I did sometimes
In connections advanced tab under select networks button what do you have selected for programs that automatically connect to the internet ?
Seems it actually connecting in terms of internet means you can't be far off.
Worth running through mail settings & see if anything can be adjusted to help.
Also what mail type is setup here (IMAP/POP3) & does Tesco Mobile have any limitations on mail server connections ?

AOL is IMAP4, I haven't asked Tesco Mobile if they have any specific limitations but the standard settings work fine with the SIM in a Wildfire running Android 2.2, I've gone through all the working settings on the Wildfire to see whether there's anything different there but I can't find anything, though I suppose there might be some small but important setting I've missed
I also tried to set up a gmail account on the HD2, but that doesn't work either
