I've loaded the blackdragon firmware and i have problem when connecting my phone to my pc.
The phone still tries to use the sim to connect to the internet instead of using the pc via active sync. At the moment i can force it to use active sync by disabling the phone with the wireless manager.
Is there any way to set the connection priority?

hi! i was just wondering if anybody knew a way of getting messenger to connect over a lan, or internet explorer to connect over a lan? i have my xda setup to connect via gprs, but not as a standard connection. so whenever i try to use IE or messenger it doesnt recognise the connection. i can get the ezwap to work, because i could change the setting on it to connect over a lan, but i cant find anywhere to change the others.
thanks
Go into active-sync on your PC. (I assume you mean using you PC LAN). Then go into options -> Rules.
In Pass through, choose Connection: The Internet.
This should do what you want.
basically what it is is, im using a seperate dial up connection via gprs which IE and messenger dont recognise and dont think theres a connection. can i change the settings in the registry to get them to only connect via a lan, i.e. piggy backing over the connection i have.
thanks
How did you get yours working with ISP, I have made number of trials. No, luck et all. I can not internet/isp/gprs working. By the way I am on another network than I originally purchased. So neither of them giving any support.
Thanks.
sometimes you have to reconnect in to the cradle to get it working
Hello,
i have a question regarding the modem functionality of the StrTrk under WM 6.1 Pro V2.
How can I share the Internet Connection of the phone to a Notebook?
(I already found the "Internet Sharing" shortcut but the question is what to do after...)
In order to find it out, i activated the Sharing through Bluetooth PAN. (On the telephone).
Now ist the the question what I have to do on my Notebook.
My Notebook displays me a Dial Up Connection and a Network Access Point Connection.
What I have to chose and what I have to enter on the Notebook then?
Is there anything to do with the telephone (except the sharing shortcut)?
Many Thanks for helpful answers!
No one for answer?
First off you will need to install active sync onto your laptop, then you will need a sync cable that will attach your phone to the USB port on your laptop. (bluetooth would be very hard to get working for this)
On your phone, start Internet sharing, and then select connect, after it says "Check USB cable connection", plug your phone into the sync cable that is plugged into your laptop.
The active sync will not try to sync but a new internet connection will be found by Windows XP.
Hope this helps
I have the same problem after I upgraded the ROM from HTC website. The upgraded ROM was still wm5. Now I upgrade the ROM from wm5 to wm6. The problem is still there. I checked the modem configuration in XP from control panel, but I can't find the modem device.
I also followed the advice here, but the screen of my phone just indicated "Check USB cable connection". I didn't get the instruction to connect the USB cable.
The upgrading was really nice for my phone except I can't use my phone as a modem. I do want to repair this problem.
Any idea?
Hello,
do you already installed active sync?
Another Problem:
I cant connect the phone through usb cable because the laptop is from the company where I work for. Iam not allowed to install any driver (On my own PC the Generic RNDIS is need to be installed). Is ist possible to have the modem functionality through Bluetooth without using Active Sync?
You don't need ActiveSync / Windows Mobile Device Center to use the Internet Sharing on WM6.
For connecting via USB, make sure you ActiveSync is disconnected and the USB cable is unplugged before you click Connect in Internet Sharing. When you receive the prompt for 'Check USB Cable Connection' plug the USB lead in again. Windows should now detect new hardware in form of a 'Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device' instead of the usual 'Smartphone USB Sync' and a new Local Area Connection should appear in Network Connections.
The Bluetooth PAN option depends on the Bluetooth Stack installed on Windows. If you have the default Microsoft Bluetooth Stack installed (Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista) you can go to Network Connections (on Vista open Network and Sharing Center and click Manage Network Connections below Tasks) and double click on the Bluetooth Network Connection icon. In the dialog that opens the phone's Bluetooth PAN Connection should be listed for you to Connect to.
That's it. You should be browsing the Internet via GPRS / EDGE.
I did install Activesync. Even I can see the remote rndis Internet device after I plug the usb cord to my laptop, the modem doesn't work. I also can't find the modem in the control panel for it.
Thanks, I connected my Cingular 3125 to my computer. The connection is a local connection as a Ethernet card instead of a dial connection. So I don't have to set up a modem driver for it.
Just in case I wasn't clear, you don't need ActiveSync for this to work, the functionality is done entirely separately.
There is no modem device any more, it's all done using a "Virtual" Local Area Network which you'll find listed in Network Connections.
You shouldn't need to configure anything, just plug in the USB cable and wait a few seconds. The phone should initiate a GPRS / EDGE connection automatically and you should then have access to The Internet.
If it doesn't, you may need to temporarily disable any other Local Area Connections (especially any that are used for Internet access) so that your PC is forced to use the one provided by the phone's virtual network connection.
Thanks, your explanation is very clear. The process is exactly like what you said.
StarTrek can be connected with Ubuntu as a Ethernet card now.

Hello guys
The WM Internet connection is provided at a very reasonable price w.r.t. the standard PC one.
I wonder if there is any possibility to share this connection with a PC.
Is there any SW that makes the bridge ?
Thanks in advance

If you are using any of the custom rom's, you should have the Internet sharing option while Active sync connection gets initiated. Having selected that option and data connection active on the mobile, your laptop or pc active-synched with the phone, can use the phone's internet.
In case, you do not see that option during active sync connection, look at the below thread.

Hi I use MyMobiler 1.25 connected to my computer at work. Unfortunatelly there is no internet on it, so I have to use 3G.
However when MyMobiler is connected to my HTC Leo I cannot use 3G. It seems to be connected (see attachment) but I cannot use it at all (no opera, no weather, no emails, ect.). The same for wifi.
ActiveSync is set to "Allow wireless connections on device when connected to the desktop".
Any ideas much appreciated.
simply, switch off active sync completely and add \windows\remote.exe to startup folder
Hi!
I recently began using a netbook with Win XP on it and sadly it cannot connect to my HD2 set up as WiFi router. I can select it from the wireless networks list, it shows that it is an ad hoc network and asks for a key - but when I hit connect... the progressbar keeps running and running until I abort the attempt.
XP has all the latest updates, I updated the wireless driver to the latest, I tried it with disabled firewall... I even pre set the network manually (computer to computer, WEP and Key) nothing helps.
At the same time a Vista laptop can connect to the HD2 router just fine.
Any ideas? I'm out of them... And frankly I'm already sick of connecting my devices via cable to get online when my HD2 has this nice and otherwise working feature.
Solved... in a way.
When I activate the option in Wifi-settings that forces my computer to only connect to computer to computer networks it works fine. Maybe the connection to the HD2 takes too long to be established or the importance ranking of available regular WiFi networks is too high in the default settings.
But it is quite bothersome to change this setting everytime I want to change the connection type from computer to computer over to regular and vice versa. Does anyone know a way to nullify the network preference without blocking either of network types from being used?
This is how it is now:
When it is set to accept only computer to computer networks I can use my HD2 as WiFi hotspot but am blocked from using any regular hotspot and get a windows error message when I try so.
When I set it to allow all network types and try to connect to my HD2 I get stuck with a connecting messagebox with an ever ongoing progress bar - but I get no error message.
When a known regular network is in range Windows even connects with that, although the connection attempt messagebox is still there. Doesn't make any difference though if a known network is in reach or not. It doesn't connect to my HD2 either way.
I just want it to work without having to make adjustments every time
It is a huge security risk to do this but look here and check the "Connect to any" box.
That's exactly what I did... See above.
But thanks for the lookup!
