GPRS problems!?!? - HTC Startrek

Hey Guys,
Sorry to bother you guys again, but I seem to be having a problem with the GPRS this time. Dont know why, but I cant get the settings for my dopod automaticly, and when i set it up manually with the settings of the provider I still cant get it to work. Any ideas?
Cheers

well, i have no idea what wireless provider you have. so even if i wanted to help. i'd have to ask a lot of questions.
plus, if you actually searched, you'd probably find what you're looking for.
being lazy != positive results.

seriously ive done all i can. Ive called the ISP up with them telling me to go to one of there branches for help. I went to one of there branches they didnt have a clue to what I should do. And plus ive changed all the settings round ive restarted my phone ive done everything in my power but still cant get it to work. If I could have avoided posting here I would have trust me, I dont like bothering people. And Im just trying to get an answer from people that know the phone better than me. If asking for help means Im being lazy then what do you think I should do?

get the settings from your service provider and follow the instructions here
look at the wm5 settings
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/The+Dash+FAQ?t=anon

Still nothing.
It had it setup right from the begining. thanks for the help though dude!
Any other ideas?

god i hate having to hold people by the hand....
i posted this not long ago, and by searching, maybe, just maybe you would've found it.
there's a link in there for yet ANOTHER forum that will tell you the correct settings for YOUR provider (since i still don't know what your "ISP" is... (ISP? you have an INTERNET service provider for your cell?? ))...
after which, if you still can't get it, i fear that you, my friend, are beyond hope.

thanks Mystic. You have been a real help. Sorry I was like that before but I was a little pissed off. Thanks alot dude got it to work though at last.
Cheers

[Q] eclipse 1.3 corporate email issue

I have ran some searches and such before making this post, but trying to determine if anything is going on in this rom for this kind of email, i have went all weekend without my work email it worked no problems before switching to liberty, and now to eclipse, i really enjoy this rom but must have work email. it goes to setup everything like normal, just wont authenticate at all.. i know my user and pass like the back my hand so its not that, i also know my server information as well, i am really decent on pc, just been trying to adventure out in phones.. anyone else having this vague problem on x2 using roms? yes its rooted, and rom is setup correctly. i have tried 2-3 flashes and still cant thru.

What are you using for your email client? I've used Lotus Notes Traveler (i know, yuck - no choice) on Liberty, Eclipse and Molten and haven't had a problem with any of them. The initial sync may take awhile depending on how large your inbox is and such. With Traveler, at least, it does some sort of authentication with the first sync and will report connection errors until it makes it through the first time. I had to wait forever until i decided to do some housekeeping in my inbox (long overdue) and tell it to sync only 1-weeks worth of history...
well i got with my IT guy from a different state and we are able to figure it out, had to get some file out of the way dont remember exactly how it was blocking it but he also roots and roms his phones so knew generally what was going on. i do appreciate the insight for sure, thats why i cam here was to find some insightfulness before actually having to tell the IT guy i was messing around haha, but gladly he was understandable telling me he's almost bricked numerous phone by always trying new stuff. i really wish i knew what we deleted so that way i could post it on here, and see if it would help anyone else or so the dev's could take a peek, maybe was my phone but i know i did full wipe before flashing so kind of hard to say, but again thanks i know noobs will be noobs but i also know forums and how to look before asking! im on overclock.net and such for pc and understand the aspects of what to ask and where! haha
Im rooted running Eclipse 1.3 and I have no problems with my corporate email... we do have our own exchange server here in IT so that may be a difference... I can even wipe my entire phone from my web accessed exchange email.....

As an IT guy myself, i think screwing around with technology is in our blood. You should ask him, see if he remembers, i would also be interested in knowing what your actual issue was. I had problems that seemed to surface at one point with the Blur email, it wouldn't authenticate. It seemed to work for a while but one day... It never seemed to be an issue with eclipse however because I could set additional parameters that allowed for security etc.

Problem

My internet won't work. My carrier is Iwireless I've never had issues with it. I put this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531135 rom on my phone and afterwards the internet stopped work. I flashed back to stock and the internet still doesn't work.
So earlier I odin my Samsung vibrant back to stock, Thing is I forgot to take my sim and my SD card out... It still worked and I still get service I can text make phone calls and all that. For about an hour or so afterwards my internet worked just fine. Now it doesn't work at all. I'm not sure if this was because of odin back to stock while leaving my sim in or not.. Any help would be appreciated.

if your sim card was damaged youd have more issues i think, it seems like a software problem what id do is do a full odin back to jfd and try out different modems, you may also have to set your APN's manually which can be a pain in the arse but could be the source of your issues, check your apn settings to be sure.
also seems to be a problem ongoing and being discussed in the thread you linked to, it may be helpful to read through it.

Thank you for replying, I have done a full odin back to JFD and it doesn't seem to help, I've also set my APN manually and I know its 100% correct. Still can't seem to figure out why I'm not getting an internet connected. I'm doing a full ODIN again back to JFD. But its most likely not going to change anything.
just an fyi for the future, expecting answers and giving the attitude you were before is not gonna grant you alot of help on these forums generally speaking if you are having an issue with a specific rom its best to ask in that thread and if you ask politely you are more likely to get someone who is receptive and willing to help you.
There was no attitude? At all.. If you took it that way I'm not sure what to tell you.

Pretty sure he was referring to this. But yes, it is better to ask in the ROM thread and then if many people are having the same problem it can be worked out there.
No worries though.
One thing. When you put in your APNs did you hit save? I have done that a few times and facepalm each time I forget.
There is an app in the market called APN backup/restore that I have used many times. Something is breaking your connection for some reason. I'll work on it later tonight. Let us know is Odin solves it though.
That doesn't seem like I had an attitude, I just figured someone else would of have the issue. I've posted in the rom thread as well, and no odin didn't solve the issue. From reading in the rom thread it sounds like a modem issue but I have no idea how to go about fixing it. Anyway thanks for taking your time to look into this problem for me. I appreciate it. I also made sure to check the apn, its saved and 100% correct
iwireless APN
If u don't mind me asking, what APN settings are u using? I have iwireless w/ a Vibrant as well and can't get my MMS & data fully working. I have the unlimited monthly plan not Megatalk.
Did you pay the data portion of your bill?
Yes I have.. I'm not dumb thanks. I've also posted in the Rom developers thread and he wont even respond to me. No one seems to want to help, everyone says flashing another Kernal fixes the issue but It hasn't fixed it for me. I still have no data and my data worked just fine before flashing his rom.

[Q] Hard bricked??? Impossible?

My brother went and flashed a custom international rom. He doesnt remember which one, not that I think it matters at this point. Ive flashed many roms, I've even bricked a few phones, but with alot of reading on the xda site, and all the help from dev's have always unbricked my phone. His samsung doesnt turn on, does not go into recovery or into download mode. Ive tried taking the battery out holding both + - vol then usb then battery. nothing. When plugged into usb without battery, light turns on, when plugged into comp , comp starts looking for a driver, so i dont think its complety bricked yet, but it comes back with this message QHSUSb_dload. Ive read up on other phones on this message, any help with how to solve this. thanks
First slap him for not reading and then go to the development section of your carrier and look for fix thread for your issue I know attention has none not sure about the other carriers.

If he's seeing QHSUSB DLOAD its hard bricked. From what I've seen looking into this, I believe some HTC's have been able to be recovered from this mode but its not possible for us w/o JTAG. Someone correct me if I'm wrong and shed some light on the subject if they have any. Very intrigued by this and think that somehow an unbrick could be done with this with the right tools/knowloedge

I looked at my the dev section there is no fix that I could find. So I posted the question in the proper samsung galaxy section. I dont believe there is a solution yet aside from sending it in. A few posts here and there touched base on it but I dont think anyone yet on here has eff'd there phones up to this point. Ive went through every samsung section to see if there were any similar post and nothing has really touched base, on it or ive triied it.

Yes I found four posts about the similar qhsusb dload, and also read about jtag, already gave my brother the website url, to contact about sending the thing in. I just havent been able to find a solution on here.
well ill have to find and reread the stuff i saw abt the htc's cuz if im not mistaken some were actually made unbrickable because of this. i was able to install drivers, and talk to the phone with a couple of things, including odin but it just hung as i expected it to. I think something could be done with this, dont seem like the typical hardbrick. let a couple more people brick this thing, if its possible someone will figure it out

I believe this is the post your talking about. Anyways I just can't believe the broski actually bricked his phone, I trully thought it was damn near impossible. amazing
It is never impossible to brick a device. This is why one should know what they are doing before they do it. I mean really, he doesn't even know what rom he flashed? Flashing a device is not for everyone nor should everyone do it. If you don't understand what your doing then don't do it.

Well, the best thing to do would be to go to the sprint section and look at mskip's sticky with his toolkit, and load the qualcomm drivers. it's an ugly situation, but that's your best lead.

Ya I did that about 4 hours ago, in my devices and printers, in now says QHSUSB_DLOAD is working properly. Yet I cant get it to connect to the toolkit, to odin, I cant even find the phone with cmd. it makes a noise everytime you plug it in to the comp, well the comp does and it searches for drivers and installs them, they all installed correctly the first time aside from the one above that was fixed. Thanks though for the help, I really appreciate it.
If no other solutions work, a JTAG repair WILL unbrick your device. MobileTech Videos (www.mobiletechvideos.com) offers JTAG repair for the SGS3. I've used them to purchase a download mode jig and they have fast turn around times, great customer service, and excellent service. You really can't go wrong using them. Hope it all works out and you can get your device unbricked.
Let us know how you hard bricked it so we can do that when we need to get our phone warranty replaced without customer service seeing the custom flashed counter!

Either this is your weak attempt at humour or you never read the entire thread, like I said in on the first page, He flashed a international rom. I dont need to recap the entire 2 pages, the fact that you posted that comment, like why would anyone want to brick their phone for warrenty if its working fine. just stupid. I appreciate your meaningless contribution to a site where some people try to learn a thing or 2. I would suggest you try taking the site more seriously. And if you cant, have some respect for the people that do. thanks again. take care

Has anybody ever really "bricked" their Device? Whats your definition of "Bricked"?

Has anybody ever really "bricked" their Device? Whats your definition of "Bricked"?
I asked because I hear this a lot and i hear just as much if i that if it hows any life at all, it can be saved. ( i fully agree). and also you will hear just about everything you do can and will brick your device. ( i understand why this is said) but how many of you have actually had to use your device as target practice as this is the only fun thing you can now do with it? I get everybody defines it as pretty much any problem you have...just get on this site..every single post somewhere is "help i bricked my phone". "did you turn it on"..."oh wait , thanks" Now i get the fear, especially when i first started messing around with android.. i guess i am the type who thinks its easier to just try and figure it out by reading then to ask and I afraid you will laugh at me and call me names.."DID YOU READ ALL 6567 PAGES BEFORE YOU ASKED"..NO THEN TOUGH, HERS HOW..." JK love you all, casue i will ask in the future.. so on the topic if you all don't mind I would like to tell you about how I and I alone have a hard time bricking.... Please don't take this and go try any of what i said i did in this story...you will brick your phone OK now that is out of the way I would like to say ... I think its impossible.. ( its not....) yes it is
Hello land of android. I just wanted to tell my story of the S7 edge Live demo unit of H Ell. I have one and I went to remove the retail version or what ever it just wouldn't boot anymore. I could get in blue down load screen but that it. I tried for 2 months, in between my other phones and not caring anymore about the phone ( my friend gave to me, he had two that he got while working at a Verizon at best buy store in the Midwest and it shut down.. he managed the store and they told him to toss the phones....in case your wondering as every post i see about these somebody is calling the guy posting a thief in one way or another...EVERY SINGLE ONE, besides this one ha ha jk, one of you will) anyways I have flashed and flashed and flashed with no success, I finally got twrp on it...OK, now i am getting somewhere. still took 3 days and many a thing I flashed, at this point it has a boot loader exception error that i have never seen nor could find many people on here that have. Used to have "USE smart switch to recovery cause your update failed" or something like that and a half a dozen other errors from doing stuff that i don't fully understand. I tell you, to people who are worried about bricking their device.....I am starting to think thats a myth...i tried my hardest to brick this phone ( i flashed every zip file i could get my hands on, its started to be a joke to to see how much the phone could take..i was flashing zips of different phones he ll i was flashing zips that had nothing to do with Android at all. back to what i was saying couldn't get it to boot either so i was thinking maybe that this mythical BRICK i keep hearing about. I do this to all my phones and every single one of them, thanks to all the knowledge and amazing people on this site, reading posts not asking..wanted to point that out, i am not wasting peoples time asking them to help me fix things I am trying to screw up on purpose. ok back to it..I got all my devices running, rooted and blazing away every single time...."knock knock"... he he get it cause i am at my desk.. huh ..my WOODEN desk.. right...come onahg nevermind..i suck at life, anywho back at it.... ITS my way of leaning. ( should of seen my computers back in the day trying to learn what the hell "Windows was". ) Anyways I am just rambling on about this to just say, its a lot harder to brick your phone then it is to do anything else to it. IF YOU LISTEN TO ME AND GO TRY ALL THIS DUMB STUFF AND BRICK YOUR PHONE...TOTALLY YOUR FAULT FOR LISTENING TO A RANDOM STRANGER ON THE INTERNET...DON'T DO IT. Anyways, i finally got the live demo unit SM-G935X booted with a Rom..i tied them all.. like 4 at least ha ha and a bunch of stock firmware. I flashed the Flyme on it, which i know nothing about and the mo-fo booted up after two months of nothing and just crazy errors.. Its now saying its a SM-G935F. its rooted and everything..way cool. I just thought i would share or if anybody needs to test a program, file, or apk..... anything...ill be your GG PIGGY. ( for stuff you are actually trying to make work, i don't need programs written just to F my S up... i can most likely handle that on my own....edit...actually,,this would be funny....nah never mind. no intentional screw ups...yet..just talk me into it... Its going to be my mission to see how much this phone can take...you know ..for science and all that. But later, right now i am gonna enjoy playing with my new S7 since i just got it going. BUT SERIOUS..DO NOT ATTEMPT ANY OF THIS, YOU WILL BE THE ONE WHO BRICKS THEIR PHONE.. Also wanted to point out my S5......yeah that little F'er can take some abuse as well. Even my daily driver one plus 6t has already seen its share of the Jrod thinking he is some master developer hacker dude. that going to figure out the next awesome thing we didn't know we could do. ( not even close...not even in like dog years of life times or ...wait that s shorter isn't it,,anyway back at it the One Plus 6t oh yeah ... it cries at night, i pretend i cant hear it but I know whats up. Anyways thanks for letting me ramble on & on. Sorry this was a mess...i get to excited and type way faster then i can think. ( my English teacher said i was going places....ADC but still its somewhere,,,i did ,,damn,ok never mind back at it. wait no i am done. I would like to hear if anybody has like totally killed their device with software ... i get you could put it in the microwave and brick it,,, i fell for that twice.. i want to hear if it happen to you and how. .so next story. or just completed delete this and ban me.. I deserve it.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Internet not working properly

Hello guys. I bought a second hand Note 8 from a classmate a week ago. It was at a good price so I went for it. The internet was not working properly in it, it would just stop working for around 20 seconds and then start working again, i thought it might be because of the rain or something but after using it for 4 days I thought something was fishy. I put my sim into another phone and Internet worked perfectly good and normal, i put in different sim cards into my note 8 but the internet issue remained. In the settings it showed N950F. I put in it Download mode and noticed that its not N950F, Its N950N, I googled it and it turned out to be a korean model. I did deeper digging and found out its been converted to dual sim N950F by flashing a Custom rom. I told him all this and asked my money back to which he told me he spent it all. Now i'm stuck with this phone. I feel like i have wasted my hard earned money. I searched online found videos on youtube but i did not try them fearing my note 8 may get hard bricked or worse. Now i am not sure if it is a hardware issue or a bug in the custom rom, I am just assuming it's because of the custom rom. Please help me out. It's a korean model Note 8 256gb. If there's a way where i can keep the dual sim funtionality and get my internet issues fixed, I would love that, if that's not possible, then just fixing the internet issues would be much appreciated too. Thank you very much.

Have you tried checking to see if the APN settings are correct for your sim? That could fix it.
You could just flash stock filmware for the device, which can be found on "Sammobile" or "Updato" but would obviously return it back to single sim.

Yes I tried the APN settings, there was nothing wrong there.
The problem is, flashing the original stock rom might restrict my network connections to Korea only. It might not have other languages as well. If you have any other suggestions please tell me, if you know someone who might, kindly mention him.
Thank you for replying.

I wish I knew other suggestions to offer, but I am limited in my knowledge, especially with issues like this. Not something I have encountered before. I can't find an answer on Google to see if you would be okay using your sim on the Korean variant.
Hopefully someone more knowledge will answer, if you don't get a reply, just keep bumping the thread.

I had a problem with data and MMS not working. It's silly but make sure with your APN type is "default,dun,supl,mms". Mine was blank and wouldn't work without putting that in.
Good luck.

I would take your device to the high street branch of your Service Provider and let them take a look at it. It is probably the Network Settings which need to be configured on your device.

I tried that. It didn't work. I Flashed a different Custom ROM, the problem still remained. I'll flash stock ROM and see what happens.
