Blackberry connect failure on Touch HD - Updates

Guys,

I noticed that after installing BB connect on my HD, a Blackberry connection should be created (that's what happens on a colleague's HTC Pro). Instead, on my HD, I cannot see any connection named "Blackberry"....and this connection makes the terminal communicate with BES server :mad:!! Could this be the reason why our HDs cannot get a connection with BES Servers?

So should we wait either for another ROM version (with a new Radio version) or BB connect .105.....:confused:

Any news on your side on this topic?????

What's about Build of WM6.1

Hey guys,

I'm trying to do my best to get you understanding me (I'm from Germany).

I got my Touch HD last week and tried to get bb working on it as you all did. And I always get the same annoying message after a first connect: PIN Pending.

My question: Did anyone of you thought of WM6.1 to be the problem for this issue? We have a HTC Diamond here (without any branding), and bb is definitly working on it (got over 100 Mails with it).

ROM-Version: 1.37.407.2 GER

ROM-Date: 06/15/08

Radio-Version: 1.00.25.03

Protocol-Version: 52.26a.25.09H

Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional CE OS 5.2.19591 (Build 19591.1.1.6)

BlackBerry-Client: 4.0.0.100 with Transportversion: 4.0.0.100

BlackBerry Enterprise Server-Version: 4.1.6

I spoke to a technical supporter of T-Mobile, who told me, that they even got bb working on WM6.1 Prof Build 19965.1.2.3

My Touch HD has Build 20757.1.4.0 which doesn't work.

Does anyone of you have a HD with one of the above mentioned buildversion??? If not, I would propose to try this. But I first want to know, if anyone of you has such a buildversion.

Furthermore I got the information, that there'll ne no new version of bb-connect cause BlackBerry want's to sell more of their own phones and therefore stopped developing new bb-connect version for WM - Don't know if this is right.

Bounty

Have cross-posted in the ROM development forum but had no response. Am thinking of offering a e20 bounty for first person to get this working - anyone want to join me?

John.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Blob8me:
Hi John - I've been here before (when waiting for bbconnect support for Diamond mid last year) I ended up donating some hard earned £'s towards "Rom Development" based on some empty promises..... 2 months later RIM issued a new bbconnect version and all was fine - things are a little quieter this time though so I would considder a donation once a solution is found but not for development this time I'm afraid....

I'm constantly monitoring other sources for information and will post as soon as I hear anything as I'm sure other are/will too!

Good luck.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alcamiro:
No..... I have exactly your Build version and BB is not working on my HD. I tried almost all of the versions of BB connect (.100 -> .104) and none is working. I'm really getting frustrated!!!!!!!!

PS what kind of Build is WM6.1 Prof Build 19965.1.2.3? I don't think it's for an HD...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alcamiro:
Ok for me. € 20 bounty for the first guy who gets BB working on HD!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Vlk_77:
Me the same!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dudakis:
Hi all,

still waiting like U for BB Connect :-(

As fas as I could read in different forums, general BB Connect is not mainly a question of the Client realease, but the support of the device-type by each provider itself. So we have to wait until e.g. T-Mobile support Touch HD for Blackberyy connect, and that could take its time...

Has anybody read the post of sems at sems.org?:

"...One idea is to change device type in ROM to HTC-Kaiser. You'll need to get a cooked or HTC ROM, using NBHUtil, extract the OS.nb file out of the .nbh file. Edit OS.nb with a hex editor, search HTC-, replace HTC-Blackstone with HTC-Kaiser (fill extra chars with 00). Save the file. Then again use NBHUtil put the .nbh file together and flash it..."

unfortunately no response of the community....

Is anybody able to cook a HD ROM in that way and test it? (I can only cook eggs in the kitchen ;-)

Maybe it could fail, don´t know, if the device-type is somehow hidden in other things, e.g. IMEI-Range...

Greez,

Dudakis

(first post here)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alcamiro:
I don't think you're right...A colleague of mine has exactly the same service provider as mine, but an HTC Pro (Raphael) and BB connect works like a charm on his terminal!

I think issues are related to BB connect version or something wrong with HD (e.g. radio version?)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dudakis:
maybe I´m wrong...

but as you mentioned, a Pro and my Kaiser are working perfectly, but Touch HD not.

Why, although same WM OS-Version and installable BB client?

I looked our Blackberry-Server, the exact Device-Type is mentioned there (Kaiser gets connect, HD not)

Anyway, it´s a pitty to get HD not fully productive for business purposes yet...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] wallsj:
Blobme - thanks for the advice - will only pay out when I have working software on my device ;)

Have posted something now - let's see what happens. Would love a device even if the Application suite is coming...

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ghaefely:
...we don't get any progress here, do we? I don't even know, from where we can expect to have a working BBC on the HTC HD! If I knew, I would get in touch with them and ask at least for a date..

Any ideas??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alcamiro:
I would pay a 20€ bounty for the first guy who gets BB working on HD. Is there anyone joining me?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ghaefely:
...I am pleased to pay 20€ for a solution of that issue. But still we need to know, who is in charge for that. Is it HTC, RIM, the Service Provider??:confused:

HTC released new blackberry connect

http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=497&news_id=61
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] khalilio:
I am not sure if this would help but I too have the same problem somehow.

I have a PIN and an IP connection, but apart from that nothing much happens.

I came across this official HTC site for South Asia region but I can't get through to the download area as my device serial is part of U.K. Orange range or EU serial range.

I appreciate if anyone out there with a device purchased from South Asia to access the website and download the cab file to make it available for the rest of the members.

Not sure if this reflects the file version but it looks like there is a new release of BB Connect which is 106!

BBConnect_WM6_Professional_BB_4[1].0.0.106.exe

Release Date: 2009-02-11

The site URL for the site is:

http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=497&news_id=61
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mallman:
can you post the cab? it tell sme not suitable when i put my SN in which is crazy buecause its an HD lol
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ghaefely:
Same storry here... "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device." Probably it's depending on the language or whatever. Never the less, I would like to try it. Just need to have the cap - file..

//Greg
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] khalilio:
I don't have the .cab file, maybe it is my bad english!

I am looking for this cab too. the one I currently have (which is not working) is 104

I have noticed that bbconnect is not available anywhere on the official HTC website apart from the South East Asia!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mallman:
lol no worries, we jsut wait to see who gets it out here.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] palmop:
What we need is a serial number from an Asia Touch Pro, Touch HD, Tytn II or Diamond. Then we can download it,as the check looks for serial for one of these devices from Asia.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] adamzeit:
If anyone can post the "exe" file up here with a link to a Mirror once you get it, that would be terrific! Waiting here in the U.S. for this software for months!!

Thanks!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Guru Meditation:
Check this out - just released by HTC in South East Asia

http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=497&news_id=61

Should work on the Touch HD ....
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Blob8me:
Ohhhhh - At Last!!!!!

At Last!!!!! :) I have now have bbconnect 4.1.0.0.106 loaded - It would appear from the file name (exactly as it came from HTC) that this version is specifically for the Touch HD???

I've got an IP address and I've got a PIN and my device has sucessfully registered!!!! I'm fully synced and receiving email in "live" time and my contacts and calendar are also synced!!!! BB Browser is working well as is BB contacts look-up!

I pulled the installation file from HTC South East Asia Website: HTC Touch HD_BBConnect_WM6_Professional_BB_4[1].0.0.106.exe :cool:

I've loaded it here on RapidShare for the rest of you that have been waiting for so long to finally add to your HD to make it THE PERFECT PHONE:

http://rapidshare.com/files/197746654/_HTC_Touch_HD_BBConnect_WM6_Professional_BB_4_1_.0.0.106.exe

Enjoy!!!!

PS - for those of you that said that you would pay for this solution can I suggest that you keep your word and donate to charity - I would suggest maybe one of the funds to raise cash to help the victims of the fires in Australia or a Cancer Support Charity if you can? That would be a VERY cool thing to do?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] O and O:
So how exactly does this work? The ease of BB on WinMo?

So I can use the emssaging service, get push email and use the BB browser on my HD with my normal HSDPA tarrif at no extra cost?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] reddog:
OK So does anyone know if this will work on the Experia X1 unit?

Hi Blob8me,

Can you tell me what is the system version and device type that gets reported to you in the about tab of Blackberry Connect.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Blob8me:
Here you go Reddog!

Device Type: HTC-Blackstone

System Version: 30.138.64.73
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] reddog:
Thanks Blob8me.

That's a bummer for me..I installed it on my X1. I get the same System version as you with the exception of the Device Type:HTC-Kovsky. I am sure that you also have Transport Version 4.0.0.102, can you confirm that for me.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ghaefely:
Thanks! Also on my HD everything is working perfectly now with the .106 - version. Finally I have the phone I was looking for..

TOUCH HD and BES are running well

I can confirm that I can use BES with my Touch HD. I reveive my company mails and I can write new ones.

But I do not work with BB connect desktop - I simply forgot to install it...

I simply asked my admin to set my account into a special mode, waiting for an activation and he sent me the password. That's all I did - beside installing the 106 version.

I tried to sync my contact, calendar items etc. as well but this doesn't work and therefore I switched it off resp. back to ActiveSync.

Since I had some problems with the battery the last weeks, I wonder how this will worsen the next days...

Attached, you can find some screenshots about my config, we're using T-Mobile as provider.

Best regards, Thomas
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alcamiro:
Finally we succeeded in getting BB connect work on HD. What a great device!!!!!!!!!!!! BB Connect works like a charm and is quite fast also......let's enjoy it NOW!!!!

PS the only comment is that it drains the battery in one day usage
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] deika95:
On my HD always with the .106 i've "NO PIN" !!!!!!!! Someone can help me please !!!!! Thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] flummie:
Hi, just to share some of the things i encountered.

1. the rom u use is a factor. i was on the 2nd beta of 4.5 and no cigar. tried some 6.1 roms and now i'm on 'a touch of HD' and BBC works. Think also Dutty rom works..

2. use desktop manager to register. is easier, faster and you dont have to change anything on hd. just install client the standard way and connect to desktop.

just my 2 euro cents :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] flummie:
Would it be a good idea to use a starting post in this thread or start a new one which specifies the roms that work with BBC? Perhaps including device/rom combination's?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ahegazi:
Hi to all,

my device sends mail without any prob, but I don't receive any mail. What's seems to be the problem?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zase77:
Does the new BB Connect Software from HTC support BIS too or only BES?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] savagemari:
BIS and BES
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zase77:
Thank you! :-)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] exlixx:
The version 106 works with my HD with default factory ROM for Singapore. Sending and receiving mails seem working fine.

Can anyone advise whether the calendar and contact items can be sync? Older versions can't do that.

And, does anyone notice that the font size of the Blackberry messages on the HD is smaller than that of the other mail messages and sms? Is there anyway to change the font size of just the Blackberry messages? I don't want to change the system font size as I'm OK with all others except the Blackberry messages.

Thanks.

Battery Drain.....

OK - So I'm a big bbconnect fan and have been a user for over 3 years now but this version has to be the biggest drain on your baterry so far??? :confused: I'm going through 2 or 3 fully charged batteries in a day :eek: I'm a heavy business user but this has really made a huge difference? I'm using the Touch HD specific version from the .exe file as I posted >>here<< when it first appeared but know that theres also a .cab install file - can you guys share your "battery" experiences so far?

Also saw a great peice of news >>here<< ref the long awaited BlackBerry Application Suite - Looking very good and likely to be released with the new Touch Pro 2 - or so I'm hoping!

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vysus:
Doesn't work for me, what's wrong?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] deika95:
No pin ? I tried many rom, also the original one but the result is always the same: do not generate the pin.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vysus:
That's my problem (ehehe, took the picture the moment I receive an e-mail :rolleyes: ):

"In sospeso" means "Pending" and it remains always like this, nothing really happens
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Blob8me:
Guys - This may seem like an odd question - But you do have a fully activated BlackBerry account (BES or BIS) associated with your SIM card dont you????

:confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] deika95:
I have'n a blackberry account but I have the service active on my sim. Without pin I can not create the account.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] greatestkelvin:
its simple

go to htc website, download blackberry connect. After that put in the new simcard that has blackberry. Presto. It works.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Blob8me:
Its not quite as simple as Hey Presto! The PIN is allocated automatically IF your SIM is registered by your provider (or IT department for corporate) - once that’s done then you will receive your PIN - it has been known to take a day or so but usually instantaneous once the service is enabled - A good way to check is to go to the "Utility" Tab on the bbconnect system settings and select "Register Now" - if successful then you will receive a system email (even if you do not have a Blackberry Account but your SIM is registered) that says your device was successfully registered with the network? Once that’s confirmed then you can setup or "provision" your email account details - this can either be done using BBConnect Desktop (recommended) or "over the network" if your provider has given you a password for your email account?

Everything above is dependant on many variables - The version of bbconnect - your service provider - your SIM being registered as a Blackberry SIM.... with all of this - then you should be fine!!!! :)

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] exlixx:
Some updates here.

I don't find (or feel) battery drained particularly fast compared to the state before I installed BBConnect.

I have since sync contacts, calendar and task items plus emails all successfully from/to the server. Sending and receiving emails also work fine.

Older versions of BBConnect could only sync emails, not other PIM items, as far as I could recall.

I am using the native ROM from Singapore, without any modifications.

I read somewhere that the PIN generation is somewhat IMEI (which is hardware) dependent. That means, in addition to the ROM version, SIM, etc., there needs to be some requirements of the hardware (the device itself) being registered at RIM. If this is correct, could it be that HTC Singapore has registered the Singapore HD with RIM? There might be some fee payments involved if this is the case. This may explain why some HD works while some HD from some countries don't.

For the TyTN II, in Singapore it was officially launched with BBConnect. In Hong Kong, it was launched without mentioning BB and true enough, BB didn't work in those Hong Kong TyTN II. Whether this was subsequently resolved I didn't keep track. So, it appears that BB is device/hardware-dependent.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nu image:
Completely agree: if it was depending from the PIN, I should be able to connect my device at least. On the display "pending" only is shown and anything else happens
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] TechAnimal:
Anyone got this working on Dutty's rom 1.9b? I had it working on the stock ROM but afterflashing, I can't get it working again. I've got a PIN but It just says IP Address: No connection

UPDATE: Flashing to Radio 1.12.25 sorted my problem. Yeah!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tru88:

This works perfect on my TyTNII but I just can't seem to get it t work here.

I wish my company would allow me to sync with Exchange.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rsacipher:
Ok after further research I compared service books on the HD and TytnII, the TyTNII has one more item in the list. It is Provisioning. The HD is missing this.

I tried to get T-Mobile to send new service books but it wasn't added. I'm not sure if this should come from my IT department or T-Mobile.

Any suggestions?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] do0fusz:
don't you need Servicebooks to work for messenger?

And doesn't the servicebook service make part of the Blackberry internet service ?

Like, having a register on the internet ?

And the Blackberry Internet Service, BIS, is part of you contract ?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rsacipher:
This is fustrating, HTC says it works but I can't get it working. This is almost the perfect phone but if I cannot get my work email I won't be able to keep it.

After my ISP Has enabled sim to blackberry service, I got my pin and I created the account but the mail does not go to push. It doesn't work very well, i've not the radio 1.25
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rsacipher:
I don't know if the radio has anything to do with not getting email. I feel like there is a step missing or setting that isn't right.

I know it works on other phones, I am using it on my Kaiser and the only thing I need to do is change the version number for it to work.

BB Connect on HTC HD

Hi guys,

after setting up successfully BBconnect on my HD, I noticed that when I send emails from my BES account on my laptop, I always find them in my Inbox (not in Sent Items as I would expect) of my HD reporting me as Sender and no body message in it. Instead, should I send emails from my handled device, I always find them in Sent Items of my device as expected....Has anyone of you faced the same issue?
