DUDE!!! $800 for two months and you didn't die from a heart attack?!? :eek:

I KNOW! I was on the fricken phone all week with SoftDick and all they

could say was "you will have to do a hard reset". Well, yeah that won't

work when you have a different OS eventhough I still have the patch

ExtROM minus the 0182.exe file.

When I asked them why they couldn't just give me the password so I

could enter it they said they don't have it. Later that changed to we

don't give it out. Why?!? Stupid laziness is what they amount to at

SoftDick.

In the end I think I will just say PHUCK them at SoftDick and just use the

phone as a phone only with them and WiFi for the 'net.This way I am sure

I will never get a surprise bill from them from internet usage. If I can't

connect when I'm trying to, then I sure as hell won't be able to by "accident".

Try this: when you've copied the files, run the certificate maker, and run wifiwake, open the connection settings dialog. From there, just edit the softbank connection and click next, next and finish without touching anything else.

This worked for me once when it didn't connect properly.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] AquiEsta!:
I won't be able to try that until I finish up here in Canada and return to Japan

but I will try that right after I try jokinawa's suggestion if that doesn't work

on my dog's breakfast of a setup I have on my X01HT. :)

Thanks for the info.

Any way to capture the Softbank password and move the settings to another Windows Mobile device? I want to use a Smartphone edition on Softbank but wifiupdate of course doesn't populate the password. Any way to capture this setting and move to a different phone? I wouldn't need to know the actual password. Where is this password information stored? I tried to move registry settings but that didn't work.

How did you use your Hermes for an GPRS connection with ai@vodafone? I have tried this, but it's not possible. AFAIK the ONLY way to make an internet connection with a Hermes using Softbank is by the way described in the first post of this thread.

question

i know some people who do the hacking of the PDA software whichi is released by release groups.

does it make sense to give them the appz and to let them hack it??

i hate the japanese carriers for their stupid simlock and data acess ****.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] AquiEsta!:
It's not so much the simlock and data access block but more the way that

they assign ONE password that is the SAME for every customer. If something

does go wrong with your connection all that SoftBank can say it "hard reset". :mad:

If someone hacks this password it will teach them a lesson NOT to be lazy,

but then again why are they worried about this? I mean we still have to pay

for the access or am I missing something here? :confused:

AE!

Is there any other way known to make a GPRS connection using Softbank than by the "open.softbank.ne.jp" connection described in the first post? I have tried the settings described in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=276643

But they don't work anymore. Any idea?

The reason why I am asking is: I am considering to get an Athena and want to use it with my Softbank contract - but of course only if I can make the GPRS connection work, and I am not sure that way described in the OP works with all WM5/6 devices.

I know that Softbanks "flat rate" tariff" is based on "open.softbank.ne.jp", but that does not matter, as I use my phone for business purposes.

Unlimited packet

I just gone through all the post and I'm interested in doing it...

but just to clarify things out, Making new Softbank AP setting does this mean unlimited PC dirrect usage with minimum packet plan??? I know using basic packet plan would max you out to 10,000 yen then goes unlimited...

please clarify this for me.

Able to creat New Softbank AP

I guess I was able to answer my own question. I was doing it wrong the first time and finally figure out how to make one...

but one more question that keeps bothering me is that, what does this new Softbank AP actually do? does this mean you won't pay extra after "packet 10" plan or it allows you to have a flat rate on /Packet (128 bytes) use?

any answer is greatly apreciated before I end up paying more that what I should expect...

POP3 mail not working?

Hi all, I've WM6'ed my X01HT, and have also ConnSMB (with proxy??). Internet browsing works fine, but for the life of me, I can't get my POP3 mail which had been working fine under Softbank's WM5 build. It's a connectivity issue as looking at my mail.log, I'm not even getting a POP3 login/connection.

It is connecting via open.softbank.ne.jp (same as for web) but doesn't reach my server. Has anyone else experienced this? Any recommendations?

problem with HTC official wm06

hi,

1. Flashed x01ht with new HTC official wm06,

2. Softbank ap settings are generated using getting done. password is created using ConnSBM.

perfect till now. no issues. I could access internet with this gprs connection.

3. Now after this, I configure my home wifi connection to connect internet.

wifi connections is connected. i can see the connected ssymbol. but my PIE is givinng me an error, "page not found".

at this point if I install "opera for pocket pc", it is able to use my wifi connection. at the same time, skype for ppc is also using my wifi connection.

on the other hand, when i try to open windows live(new wm06 feature), it is trying to connect to GPRS connection and getting connected, but not taking the current active connected wifi connection.

but the main issue is PIE is not working and windows live is not able to use wifi.

now I delet the softbank AP settings created by ConnSBM, and every thing i have on my device is working fine with wifi connection. no issues. at this point if i need to recreate softbank AP its not creating a new connection as it had created earlier. THE ONLY OPTION AT THIS POINT IS HARD RESET.

I ahve done it several times till now and used diffrent sequence. but,

PIE, windows live has problem working together with wifi and gprs.

sequence #2 which i tried,

after flashing, run ConnSBM to get softbank ap settings. after done, without using PIE, get wifi settings.

now goto connections and just edit open.softbank.ne.jp, without touching anything finish it.

GR8, now gprs and wifi is working with PIE. BUT now WINDOWS LIVE IS NOT able to connect to internet.

pls. let me know how I can make Windows LIve get working to use the direct to push(which is my prime interest for wm06 with win live).

POF I seek your help here!!!!

CAN anyone here would like to give me some correct method to do it.

let me know if any perticular information si needed to solve this prob. Did anyone had this prob before?????

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] khammo01:
The method will only work on a Hermes or Universal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chainbolt:
I run into the same problem. The solution is to disable the proxy setting in the registry.

HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Internet Settings

Change EnableAutoDetect to 1
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chainbolt:
How do you know this? How about Athena/Advantage? Anybody has tried this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Xero:
I can definitely confirm chainbolt's findings on that registry key.

It's pretty much required to enable the autodetect key after you run the AP settings.. you get a short error message in kanji if you don't do this.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chainbolt:
It is confirmed working only on the Hermes and one other HTC phone. But I am sure you know how to make a SoftBank GRPS connection the "regular" way.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] onake:
hi chainbolt,

what is the 'regular' way? still cannot get the flat rate setting done. : (
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
SMS from Softbank a warning?

@onake I assume Chainbolt was referring to the ai@softbank connection which does not fall under the flat rate plan.

In a related issue, did anyone else recieve a SMS yesterday (9/10) from Softbank warning X01HT users about extra connection charges when sending S!Mail and/or connecting to the Internet?

Could this be a warning for people like Jeff Harris who got caught out?

Or perhaps this is a warning that they are somehow going to start cracking down on those of us who have used these AP settings to get our flat-rate connections back after upgrading to English OS/WM6.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Alcibiade:
I received it as well. I suspect there has been users complaining about extra costs and they want to avoir legal issues... Softbank has prviously been charged with abusing users with deceiving wording on their plans...

I dont really see how they could "Crackdown" on users and distinguish between the way people get connected
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
Well, that is reassuring. Thank you Al.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
@onake and chainbolt etc.

I have been looking at the differences between the SB AP setting packages for the universal and the hermes, and from what I can tell only the WIFIwake files are different.

I am happy with my Hermes, but I am also interested in seeing other phones freed up to work on the SB network. I don't know exactly how, but couldn't someone take apart these exe files, look at their differences, and figure out a way to change them so they would work on other phones?

Obviously I am out of my depth here, but I have a feeling that editing these files isn't impossible - for someone else that is.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] tetsuokaneda:
So everything works properly on my Hermes but the only things that don't wan't to work is Messenger,every time that i try to open it it tells me "there's a connectivity problem........."i've fixed the problem of PIE changing the registry key to 1 and now i dont have a problem,i don't have other problems with all the others programs like Skype,Fring,so now i'm wondering why only Messenger got this kind of problem?Does anyone had this same problem?

I really need this program!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
Getting closer to the opensoftbank password

Okay, I got the WIFIwake.exe files open and I can't make heads or tails of most of it. However, I have found a string of about 200 or so random upper- and lower-case letters, numbers and symbols.

I have a feeling that the password is being taken from somewhere in this string. It looks passwordish.

I assume I am looking for a string that is 16 symbols in length (as the last one was).

I have one question for anyone who may know: Can this password contain symbols (like + or |) or is it strictly numbers and letters?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chainbolt:
The "regular" way is using the SB "Packet Communication Service" at the AP "softbank". The big difference is that you have to pay, depending on the plan, for the amount of packets downloaded, whereas the AP "open.softbank.ne.jp" connection is flat rate.

The "regular way" is configered automatically by the network wizard, if you have WM6. Or you can do it manually

AP: softbank

user: ai@softbank

password: softbank

But again, the regular way is much more expensive.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] tetsuokaneda:
Nobody have problem with Messenger???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:

It allows you to have a Data connection.

Again, I'm not sure that this will help. I could really use MMS but I haven't tried setting it up for a while. Plus, I flash my phone often and it's a hassle redoing everything.

Good luck!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chainbolt:
Data connection is not the point. You can make this easily with a Hermes using "Softbank". ;)

AP: softbank

Username: ai@softbank

password: softbank

This makes a GPRS connection and you are charged for the actual number of packets - which can get enormously expensive.

The AP "open.softbank.ne.jp" connection described in the first post of this thread gives you access to Softbank's flat rate connection. That's a totally different matter. ;) We are talking about a lot of money here if you use your Hermes on a regular basis for browsing.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] allan1:
I don't actually browse on my device with Wap. I prefer to use WiFi. But I just thought it might help with setting up MMS.

Anyway ....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
Allan1, I haven't tried this connection, but I would think any softbank connection would work to get MMS when using the MMSlite program. Does it work for you?

Also, many people on Softbank with non-Hermes machines have just opted like you to use their Wifi instead of using Softbank's more expensive conneciton. Pretty stupid of Softbank to dissuade their customers from using their services, but then there you go.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] tetsuokaneda:
MMSlite is the best,it works without problems.Regarding messenger,the weird thing is that it worked with another different rom,same internet SoftBank settings,the problem is with the Schaps rom,there's no reason to make messenger work,if i change rom i don't have problem!Now i'm wondering how is possible?I've tried to install another messenger too but with the same result!I'ts a pity i really like the Schaps one but without messenger and Hotmail is too much for me.....

Doesn't work with CID Unlocked HTC Kaiser

WIFIwake.exe works perfectly on CID Unlocked Treo750:) ,

without a code patch & sign.:D It's a great job!

But WIFIwake doesn't work on my CID Unlocked Kaiser:( .

I unlocked by pof's Hard-SPL tool, and checked CID is 00000000 by "info 2".

I tried patched WIFIWake.exe, "HERM200" to "KAIS130", and self-sign,

it does'nt work.

Does anyone success that WIFIwake works on Kaiser?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
Wow! That's the first I have heard of that, and it is great news! Do you use the wifiwake in the Hermes .zip file? Or the Universal .zip file? Or is it a patched wifiwake specifically for the Treo?

And that is really NOT great news! I didn't even know that CID unlocking was possible yet on Kaiser! Looks like it Pof just released the tool. I suggest you contact Itamae directly. He can probably help on this situation.

Just a little question regarding the data options: I got a simple White Plan (only) card yesterday and tried the "ai@vodafone" and "ai@softbank" APs with it quickly and without any problems. I also created the flatrate connection and password using the above mothod. But whenever I try to connect it puts my Uni into an endless loop without ever establishing the connection. I tried the same with a friend's (White Plan) card and it connected without any problems. Any ideas what might be the problem?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] larsuck:
You say you just got the white plan? To access the flat rate you have to sign up for the packet-shi-houdai (all you can packet), which is another 980 yen a month minimum, 10000 yen maximum.

Also, to use the internet at all, you have to sign up for a 300 yen basic pack (or some such bull**** name) that includes email and packet internet usage.

Or at least that is what I have been led to believe. Sorry, it is late where I am.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Falk:
Thank you for your answer! 980円　-　１００００円： Now that leaves room for my imagination ;-) I am not sure how fast I am going to max out, but maybe you can tell me a bit more from your experience?

And I actually didn't subscribe to the basic pack - the contract is without any internet access. That's why I wonder how I can connect using the normal Vodafone / Softbank APs. So I guess you can at least save those 300円 if SMS and the expensive internet access are good enough for you.
