Hey,

I can't seem to get WLM for Windows Mobile to work. I have searched XDA as well as HoFo, I have tried various roms (Xplore 1.1, Xplore 2.0 Beta, Faria's 'The Real Thing,' Faria's AKU3.3 WM5, and even T-Mobile's 2.26), and I have tried multiple connection changes.

I have also tried various Radio ROM's including 2.19.11, 2.25, 2.61, and 2.69.

The way I have my settings in "Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks" is as follows:

1.)For the top option, I created a new network titled "WiFi." The only additional change I made to this one was to tick the box "this connection connects to the Internet," I did not tick the box for "Use Proxy."

2.)For the bottom, I also created a new network called "T-Mobile Web." For this, I added a modem (Cellular GPRS), entered an APN of wap.voicestream.com, did not add a VPN, turned Proxy on with a valid entry, and made sure the WAP and Secure WAP had valid entries.

With this setup I CAN access any website with Pocket IE and Opera 8.6x. Unfortunately, I cannot access Windows Live Messenger:

1.) Open WLM through the Program window

2.) I can either say "Sign In" on the homescreen, or go to "Cancel" and enter in my display name, but either way when I click sign in I get...

"Signing in to Messenger will add your Messenger contacts to your phone's address book. Do you wish to continue?"

3.) I say "Ok" to this, my phone notifies me that it is "Connecting to GPRS," then Windows Live states, "There's a connectivity problem. Make sure you're in an area with good phone reception and try again."

4.) I can press "Retry" as many times as I want, nothing changes.

I can also get a different error message if I click on the "Sign-in to Windows Live" from the Today screen. My phone then connects to the Internet again, then, after it successfully connects, I get, "Windows Live was unable to establish an Internet connection. Please check your Internet settings and make sure that you have access to data services under your billing plan. If you need help, please contact your mobile service provider."

I have tried removing the Live Messenger Today screen item to resolve it ( not that I thought it would work ). I have tried enabling the WiFi and that did not work. I have tried setting both Options in Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks to my connection "Web," but that did not work.

I have tried in areas where I get full reception + GPRS/EDGE and I have tried in other areas, nearly one hundred miles away, where I had varying reception + GPRS/EDGE.

Any ideas?

im a beta tester for windows live mobile and can probably say without doubt its expired. mine wont connect when i new version comes out. they disable the older versions when a new build comes out. the latest build was realeased something like 2/4/07. thats how i can usually tell there is a new build available without going to the microsoft connect site, it just stops working.

try finding the latest build and you shouldnt have a problem
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] hpspec:
dolbe,

I would agree with you, but other people are using the exact same one that I have...only they are successful in connecting. Thank you for your insight, though.

Hi dude, i was jus wondering if u found any solution to the problem of connecting to window live as i face the same exact problem, but i also notice that trying every rom window 6, it wont connect BUT when u down grade back to window 5, there seems to be no problem in connecting to widow live mesenger. Any solution rather downgrading to window 5.

Possible problem with the gprs could be reception or radio versions, the gprs data connection is slow when tray to work with internet explorer or opera,

Takes to long time to show up the www.google.com ,

I think the problem could be with the radio version or the rom,

Windows live/ email synchronisation connection solutions

Hey All,

Web browser working fine but you can't synch your e-mail account or windows live account? ... I was puzzled by this for quite a while myself before it finally clicked (I even got to a stage where I could sync my email and live account through my wireless internet but not through the mobiles own GPRS/3G)

The problem lies in the data connection that windows live account/ your email account attempts to use. The good news is that, it is usually very easy to select the right data connection for your email account to use:

1. Go through the E-mail account setup, where you enter your mail server settings. Continue to enter these as normal.

2. When you get to the "Outgoing (SMTP) mail server" page, tap "Advanced Server Settings". Under "Network Connection" you have the option to choose the data connection. This is usually set to "The Internet" as standard, but usually needs to be changed to "t-mobile internet", "vodafone internet" or whatever network connection has been setup to get your mobile connected to your providers own GPRS/3G. BINGO, your done... well most of the time.

The bad news for Windows live/ hotmail users is that they do not get the chance to select the network connection a windows live/hotmail account uses. On the very first part of the e-mail setup, as soon as you type in "....@hotmail.com, or ...@msn.com" , the account wizard completely takes over declaring that "settings found for hotmail.com". And even after you type in all your details you do not get to option to select the network connection to be used. (This is consequence of the fact that Microsoft Windows Mobile thinks it knows best how to configure microsoft based e-mail accounts for windows mobile.) The network connection that is automatically selected is called "The Internet". As you cannot select another network connection, you must edit "The Internet" connection so that it has the right settings for your particular mobile service provider. To do this:

1. Go to Start --> Settings --> Connections tab --> connections --> manage existing connections --> select "The Internet", and then tap "Edit".

2. Leave the name as "The Internet", but fill the rest of the boxes with the GPRS/3G settings of your individual mobile service provider.

Note: Getting these settings is relatively easy: 1.You can ask your mobile service provider. 2. You can search the web for the GPRS settings of your network. 3. If your web browser is working fine, you probably have the settings. Check under manage existing connections, and check the values used for "t-mobile internet", "vodafone internet", "orange internet", etc... and just copy them.

Enjoy,

AK

Hi AK,

This is truly a b*tch! I recently upgraded my Samsung i780 to Windows Mobile 6.1 via the free upgrade offered by Samsung (http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/nr/subXb_xp.jsp) - and after that I lost my settings to make MSN work..

I remember that I spend lots of time to make it work last time aswell.. and at that time it always created two connections when I started to use MSN and check email at the same time.

After that, I used my phone on a flatrate 3G connection for almost 3 months in Asia without any trouble - it worked just great, I was emailing, using Skype, MSN, Google Map and everything flawlessly... Buut ofcourse I had to upgrade to 6.1 which I am happy about, since my phone is faster now.

Anyway.. tonight I finally got it working again; I wish I could make some kind of walkthrough.. but I can't.. :mad:

What I did was to have two online configurations from my Danish telecom provider "Telenor" send to my phone by SMS (I could type in my phoneno. on their website, selecting which config I wanted); I got one for WAP called "E-GO" and I got one for Internet, called "Internet". For a while, I was using "Internet" as my default profile for everything, and it worked fine with everything except for MSN which refused to even attempt to logon.

Now I went to to Start --> Settings --> Connections tab --> connections --> manage existing connections --> and selected the "WAP" connection as my default connection instead.

Now everything suddenly works - I selected this connection also to be used now for my GMAIL account (under server priveligies while setting up your email), Skype works, MSN works, Google Map works, Explorer works, Opera Works..... all running full 3G HDSPA mode!

My guess is, that the problem rely on the fact that you cannot select any default connection for MSN. So the connection you select as your generic connection must be capable of running MSN and all the rest - so if it doesn't work with your "Internet", "My Internet" or "The Internet" connection, try changing to another one. If you don't have it, try to setup from your telecom provider - maybe another setting will work.

Last thing to do for me now.. a full system backup with "SPB Backup" to make sure nothing goes wrong ever again :)

I suddenly feel like a total noob. I've just upgraded to stock lollipop.

I can't decide whether it is a bug after upgrade or whether I don't have a clue.

I cannot access recent apps. I've tried double tapping the home button, sliding up from the home button, (thought that was the Google Now shortcut) and neither seem to do anything. I really miss task switcher. Can someone tell me whether I'm doing anything wrong, or is there a bug in the stock rom?

Many thanks,

It's only a very short question. The last days I was thinking about that thing. If you go to "Accounts" you'll see, that you can register a Firefox-Account. I want to know, which apk provides that functionality, because I haven't found anything. It's not the big impoertant wuestion, but I bothers me also. Maybe someone knows the answer.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silberpfeil3110:
What do you mean by "stock feature"?

Baked into Android? Or Touchwiz?

My question was where it comes from, as there must be one apk which invokes that into the system...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byasini:
It's a stock feature of samsung firmwares.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silberpfeil3110:
Yeah... I thought so, but that doesn't help me further in my investigation from which place EXACTLY it comes.

But nevermind, it's not as important and if I have time I will make a nandroid and play around.
[Lenovo P780] Sheiber:
Hello everyone.

My problem is simple, I can't change the modem.

More information:

I got my P780 some time ago with 4.2 from the vendor. For some days now, the device was softbrick'd. After a complete flash and 3 days of back and forth I got 4.4.2 S221 Life installed with TWRP and CWM recovery (can easily change between). With this version i actually CAN (miracly!) connect not only to 3G, but to 2G!! (Only version so far for me)

If it helps, I live in Germany and probably got the chinese version (chinese letters written on battery)

Problem is, the connection is not very stable :/

So I decided to switch the modem to v51. That's where the problems start. I got the zip on the ext_SD, flashed with TWRP and CWM and wiped the cache. But the "Baseband version" is still at "P780.V101..........", even after several modems, it does nothing!

My second problem is, that the WLAN-connection only works once. I enter the password, it works and after I got out of range and back in it won't connect again!! I have to "Forget" the connection and connect all over again with entering the password.

I really hope you can help me :)
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
what i found is Alice Project Rom gives you the best wifi signal and somewhere in stympy s post you will find attached modem .. now that you are in germany i think it will work best for signal... just flash it from recovery
[Lenovo P780] Sheiber:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Unfortunatly this doesn't help either. I flashed it, but the signal strength is nevertheless bouncing between nothing (maybe 10db above noise) and full reception. Also in 2G as well as in 3G.

AND the Baseband version haven't changed at all :( (still v101)
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
what i noticed is with Alice Project i got the best signal reception for WIFI and for phone also ... its using baseband of S920.V101 may be thats why...

or alternatively serach for S920 modem drivers and give a try ..

cheers
[Lenovo P780] Sheiber:
I tried nearly every modem I could find (around 15-20) but none changed the baseband version or anything.

Thats my problem

Greetings,

Recent pictures dragged from my PC (Windows 8.1, 64 bit OS) to my Note Edge cannot not be seen using stock gallery app. I download jpeg, jpg files and folders containing jpeg's and jpg flies to the picture folder on the Device memory and to the picture folder in my SD card. The dragged and dropped files can be seen using the phone's file manager, but can't be seen using the Gallery app. Older pictures initially downloaded to my phone can still be seen using the Gallery app. My unit is running ver 4.4.4...

Samsung Product Service Response

Greetings all,

Upon conveying my issue with a Samsung Rep online, I got this resolution:

Put the pictures and folders not detected in the Gallery in the DCIM folder. This seems to work but I am not satisfied with this answer because I have some files and folders in a separate location that are detected by the Gallery app.

I initially performed a "soft reset (removed and replaced the battery after powering off unit)" with no change or resolution. Next, I cleared the Gallery app cache with no change. I then dragged and dropped a picture file (.jpg) from my pc to the Phone's DCIM folder. The picture was detected in the DCIM folder by the Gallery App. Then I cut and pasted a folder that wasn't detected by Gallery in the DCIM folder on my SD Card. The folder was detected. The pictures can be detected if you put them in the DCIM folder in either the phone or SD Card.

As I have mentioned before, I am not fully satisfied with this solution because I have pictures outside of the DCIM folder that are detected by the Gallery app, but this option seems to work.

[Security Discussion] Joker87:
I can't believe what I've seen!

A few days ago I encrypted my galaxy s3 running the old 4.1.2 with this guide to avoid having to enter an alphanumeric password each time I unlock the screen. Yesterday I installed an app called "Locker" that is supposed to reboot and wipe the device after a specified number of wrong lockscreen pin attemps.

When I woke up this morning I had a nandroid on the microsd (online nandroid backup app) performed overnight plus the internal storage backed up too and I decided to try that app. After 10 wrong attemps it actually rebooted to recovery but didn't wipe anything, probably cause I'm running a custom recovery (TWRP). No bad, after reboot you are prompted to enter the alphanumeric cryptopassword (different from the lockscrenn pin) so that method would be safe, I think. After entering the cryptopassword it forced reboot again, again stating I entered 10 wrong pin previously. At this point I was stuck so I tried restoring the nandroid, rebooted but guess what?? My cryptopassword was not recognized!!! I tried another time wiping everything, included internal storage, no good. I tried restoring a previous unencrypted image, incredibly it still asks me the cryptopassword and still doesn't recognize it!!

I was stuck and didn't know what to do, I said I'll try flashing a stock rom with odin, I started downloading it but I reflashed stock recovery back for another try. Wipe data/factory reset, then reflashed TWRP restored the overnight nandroid back again and guess what???

MY DEVICE ISN'T ENCRYPTED ANYMORE!!! It only asks the lockscreen pin, but if I go to settings => Security it shows itself as unencrypted!!

Such an incredible bug, yes, you'll lose your internal storage in the process and you need a nandroid to restore the /data partition. I can't believe it!!
[Security Discussion] Joker87:
Probably I understand what happened. The online nandroid backup is performed after the cryptokey has been entered, so it saves the data partition unencrypted.

The proof would be making a nandroid from recovery and seeing if this trick works the same
[Security Discussion] CHEF-KOCH:
FDE on Android 4.x is already known as vulnerably and can be decrypt by various tools (not telling the name here - and don't ask me for it). Just saying, so no matter if you use it or not if an attacker have physical access to your device it's very easy to get your stuff and the fact you use a custom recovery makes it very easy (not that a stock recovery is not affected but needs some more steps to get the tools working..).
[Security Discussion] Joker87:
With other experiences I had with PCs, if you clone a bitlocker encrypted partition online, the resulting copy will be unencrypted, if you clone it booting from a live cd the resulting copy will be encrypted as well.

What I did was backing up my phone online, so the backup was of an unencrypted system. I'm sure if I restore a nandroid made in recovery environment, it will restore an encrypted system as well

I think the only way to get around it is brute forcing it, a 128 bit key is safe as long as you don't choose a short password

After upgrading to an older release of WinMo6, I haven't been getting calls and texts most of the time. I still get calls and texts, but not all go through. Also, I can make calls and texts without problem. I believe this is due to a faulty Radio, is it?

Also, what is a good radio to base a newer installation of WinMo6 in? What are your guys' preferences for WinMo6 distributions and why? I'm still deciding x3.

-edit

I'm on Cingular
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] jorge_culv:
You definitely want T-Mo UK 2.19.11 radio ROM. I'm on Cingular as well, and was missing some calls on 2.25.something with WM6, but after reading the Radio Upgraders Thread (should be one of the first listed here, its sticky--thanks Kyphur!) I downgraded just the radio rom and have had no problems. Faria as well recommends the 2.19.11 Radio ROM in his WM6 Thread. Can't get any better than that. Flashing a radio rom won't change any of your other settings, so its a pretty harmless operation.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Evera:
I also see a new 2.40 rom from Faria, is that ok too?

Also, my WM6 is pretty old. I would like to upgrade it. What are the better choices out there now?

Also, you're on Cingular USA, right? I just don't want any mistakes lol.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mfrazzz:
Feel free to try what you want, but myself and a lot of other Cingular users on all WM6 roms have only had good luck with the T-Mobile 2.19 UK Radio (and yes thats in the US). No missed calls or SMS. I've also tried the 2.40 one and you can read my report in that thread (in a nutshell, it quits working when the phone sleeps). So load up 2.19 and enjoy WM6 on Cingular. Downside is 2.19 seems a little weaker and slower to acquire signal. But its not much different for me than when I was on the stock ROM.

After 2 weeks of trial and error, I am happy to say that mfrazzz's advice is spot on (and worked for me, finally!).
