Wiz,

On your theory, I took the Custom ROM from the QTEK directory which is a 1.5 ROM with 1.12.10 radio ROM. I installed BB Connect which installed fine but would not connect - I expect Illegal PIN.

So it maybe looks like you need - 1.12.10 Radio with ROM earlier than 1.6.7.1 with either a T-Mobile SIM or a T-Mobile ROM.

So I now have T-Mobile UK ROM with Vodafone UK SIM with German BB Connect Software working great - like the EU all over again :wink:

One tip is make sure you ActiveSync all your contacts/calendar etc before installing the BB Connect software it seems to screw up the Calendar sync if you do it the other way round.

I also said I would post the registry before and after on the T-Mobile UK ROM. True to my word the zip file is below.

I've had some fun and games with all this. I tried unlocking the extended rom so that I wouldn't get all the T-Mobile junk but you can't seem to do that at the moment. So I did the soft reset trick and manually added the CABs that i wanted ie. Camera Patch, MMS etc.

I then had to tweak the registry to get rid of the branding on the dialer which is absolutely hideous. And then finally removed the splash screen on bootup. 4 hours later, after lots and lots of reading forums, I think I'm done.

I've also added a text file below which is War & Peace on the installation from start to finish. It might help someone?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] antlane:
That's great, thanks Jason! When I installed BBConnect a couple of weeks ago, it shows the T-Mobile GPRS APN in the settings, I take it this doesn't matter or should I be installing a different version of BBConnect?

My finanace director is incredibly tight and as he'll have to pay more money for me to be able to use BBConnect, the chances are he won't sign it off. Apparently only very senior people in the company are entitled to Blackberry usage (seems he has to pay Vodafone for a new tariff, and also pay Blackberry for another user - does this sound correct?!).

Hi

The ftp link on page one, does not seem top work. I want to install the BB connect on my Vario

Can anyone point me to the download?

Thanks

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] edsub:
When browsing thru the registry files, something came to my mind: I think the BBClinet just check s IF there is a 'T-Mobile Internet' identifier string available. If it is (and it is when youre using a TMO rom or using TMO customisations) the BBClient will work, otherwise it wont.

As I remember Wiz is using a QTek rom on T-Mobile.

@Wiz: Can you confirm you have (under 'Connections') 'T-Mobile Internet' (instead of 'My ISP') or at least the connection identifier from the T-Mobile extende rom setup?

For the rest of it there is not much T-Mobile in the registry dums, apart from some app-specific strings that have a 'Customer'variable with 'TMO'value.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] emauliscrap:
Likewise. I'd love to give this a go.

I believe you must have the Blackberry w/ Corp Email features enabled on your account for this to work. I have tried and tried with my devicce and it wouldn't work. As soon as I put my coworkers sim card in from her Blackberry 7290 from t-mobile....

SUCCESS.

Final BBconnect solution??

It seems that a lot of people have put solutions to getting BB Connect onto a wizard, could someone post the exact versions of roms they have used, and which work. (links to the roms would be nice ;-) ) :?:

Re: All t-mobile USA users...

j0nkatz,

Were you able to get internet working on the device? And were you able to surf at the same time, or suspend/resume as was previously mentioned?

I called up tmobile US which of course had no idea what I was talking about, but the "blackberry corporate" plan is $30/month, $10 more than I'm currently paying. I guess my only solution is to either wait for the upgrade to SP2 (like in a year), or wait until tmobile comes out with thier push email solution for WM5 devices (rep didn't specify)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
Just to collate what I have done these are some notes I put down for a co-worker on the BB Connect. Note we are in the USA using TMo:

Go through the unlock procedues making sure you do the Super CID unlock, you're then free and clear to install any ROM. If you intend to use BB Connect then install the TMo UK Ship ROM RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe

Install the BB Desktop Software

Connect your device to the PC and let the activesync finish

Install BB Connect to the device

Configure BB Connect on the device to talk to "Blackberry Solution" on the "Options"tab.

Check under the tabs that it is set to allow itself to work while roaming.

Open BB Desktop

Connect to the devie from BB Desktop

Establish a password by moving the mouse in the insane world of RIM

Let the thing sit for an age while it syncs calendar.

Unplug and let it connect to the BB over the GSM

Go into settings, connections and create a new connection called "TMo USA" of similar so you know what it is

Set it to use the GPRS modem

APN should be wap.voicestream.com

No other settings needed.

Set the device to use this connection.

Thats it

Remember to browse the web you have to suspend BB connect and then everything works as normal.

When finished web browsing Resume BB Connect

BB doesn't work while web browsing or the phone is operating.

The above works for us and we have at least three Varios running with BB Connect happily.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bassettg:
Has anyone found a solution to the uncertified system software error that happens to some people during the install of the BB Connect package on the device?

I have a couple of HTC Wizards (not branded). I unlocked Super CID, loaded four different ROMs, including all the ones mentioned above that work for other people. Two from Qtek (1.6.7.1 WWE, 2.17.7.2 WWE) and two from T-Mobile (1.6.2.4 UK, 1.6.2.1 DE). I tried both the client from the FTP site and the installer package directly from T-Mobile Germany. All combinations give the uncertified system software error.

Since there was a post earler about a DLL checking for HW ID, I am inclined to think that is the case.

Any thoughts about this from the group?

Thanks.

I've managed to get it all working. The only slight issue is that it takes around ten minutes for mail to come through. However other users here who have proper Blackberries get their mails coming through far quicker. Does anyone know if this discrepency could be down to any of the following:?

* Using Blackberry Connect instead of a proper Blackberry

* My Exchange account

* My Blackberry Exchange account (perhaps frequency of updates is user-specific?)

* My Vodafone account

Any help is greatly appreciated.

IF you are using BB Enterprise server then I'm surprised you ar egetting a delay - I'm using BB Connect and my mail hits the device the same rate as colleagues with blackberries. I'm on TMo USA with the TMo UK Ship Rom and BB Connect via a NY based BES. Sounds like it's something else in the setup rather than the BB Connect

Tried it on my XDA Mini S (locked to and using an o2 Blackberry SIM). loaded OK and generated new PIN etc (just as the connect program should (I've sucessfully used BBC on P910, Nokia 9300 and more recently Treo 650)).

However once I tried to register it closes the connection - so I assume it is something to do with either the locked o2 device or the o2 (Blackberry) connection.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
So as a dumb question - is it possible to install an AKU2 ROM and then downgrade the radio ROM to something like the 1.13? If it is I'd give it a try to see if it could work with the BB connect. As the issue seems to be with either the AKU1 versus AKU2 ROm or the Radio ROM version being below 1.13 it would be interesting to isolate the problem to one or the other.

A few months back I was using BBC on a Sony Ericsson P910a with T-Mo in the US. Then they upgraded their servers and I got booted because I was on a POP account, not BES.

I would like to find this out as well. I think you can cook your own rom and pull bits and pieces that you want. I am finding the orig tmobile rom very flakey. I end up soft reseting at least once a day :(

It would be great if someone had any ideas about this. Think we have another unit turning up in the office in the next day or so - I'll blow it out with the latest QTEK ROM and see what happens when we try backing down the radio

I also tried to install on a OutLook-Exchange computer, but I it same error message.

I am perhaps except subject, but I remain blocked and then to benefit from my Q9100.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
You and the rest of us mate....

We talked to TMo USA and RIM a week ago and they had no plans in their minds for rolling out BB Connect. RIM are pushing hard with their new units and TMo don't seem to see much business benefit in rolling BBC out. In fact they didn't believe it worked in the USA until we demonstrated the global approach of a German BBC, a UK TMO ROM and a US BES which kinda floored them.

I'd guess we'd se something first in Germany as there must be pressure for AKU2 ROMS but with their BBC rolled out they couldn't deploy a new ROM without it working with their existing BBC user base. Then again it's TMO so they mnight just roll out AKU2 and not worry about the technical issues :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sting0r:
Thanks for the update. Hopefully you showing them that it works in the US doesn't cause them to try and shut us down :(

Wish someone was interested in trying to cook up a better rom, with playing around with new rom and old radio rom...

since then i have reloaded my rom twice with the the result of installing fine, but no connection to BES ever.

the other 2 roms i tried are

1. RUU_Prodigy_2080701_101_11310_Qtek_WWE_Test.exe

2. Xda_Minis_Upgrade_v2.21.4.101.exe

I played ExtremeG 2 on N64 emulator and game is almost choppy as on my LWW :/ Also i played Danmaku death, and sometimes Fps is better than my old LWW but sometimes its worse >__>

P.S. It looks like it throttled so the score was that low... But still for 10 mins of testing some games that run good on my 1Ghz phone to be able to make the Nexus go to throttle mode and it was baerly warm to the touch...And people say you need around 30mins of heavy gaming to make it throttle... I expected much more from this device. It looks like its custom kernel time. :)
