Then if I were you, I would try to do what is described here: http://www.silentservices.de/HexEdit-ROM-for-BBC.html

I assume you have a cooked or shipped rom that you have flashed yourself? If so, then use a hex-editor on the rom .nbh file to search for "HTC-PB74" and replace with "HTC-Fuze". I have read that the HTC-Fuze is capable of running BBConnect.

Then re-flash the rom.

Then change the AKU to .1.4.6 with a registry editor after flashing.

Then download BBConnect 106.

That I think will be your easiest way to get BBC to work without all the hastle... If this doesn't work, then find another HTC device with 4 letters (like "Fuze" and find the corresponding aku number and try again.

If you use Resco Backup, you can even backup your existing stuff so that you can restore it all after re-flashing too....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
mitsi,

Thanks a lot for your support. Unfortunately there is not yet HSPL for the Mega so I will have to try the SetModelId.exe approach.

Thanks a lot for suggesting the HTC-Fuze name, I know BB connect is working with it so I will try to use it when cheating the ROM.

By the way one million of thanks for the script and programs for mortscript.

Best regards

Hi Vintila.

Please check: if u surf using BB browser it doesn't mean u are using the BB connection.

I installed

SBP wireless monitor

(great app!) and I can see realtime data traffic on every connection.

Like mitsi said:

after choosing Y I can surf the web using the IE included in BBconnect, and Opera too, but I can see that anyway websurfing, googlemapping, WMmailing etc route data (many Mb) through a standard GPRS connection. Just BBmailing routes data through BB connection (a few bytes!).

Please check and give me a result please.

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
If you use the Blackberry Browser of course you have data traffic but it is routed through the Blackberry connection so it should be included in your BB data plan (so no cost for you). But that is the only Windows Mobile application using data traffic you can use "for free".

Be sure you are using the BB browser by choosing Menu, you should have an entry called Blackberry in the last position, otherwise you are not using the BB browser.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
I did a hack yesterday which now enables me to get Opera and all other internet connections through Blackberry rather than mobile web. This has worked out much faster because the Blackberry doesn't have to finish and the mobile web to start because Blackberry is always running for emails. :D

Please don't ask me to re-find it though!!! ;)

Edit: doh, it was this thread!!!! Post #1!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hey Vintila, when you had your Elf which had Blackberry working, I don't suppose you know what the device type was in Blackberry Settings/About tab? Or your aku number? I don't suppose you still have it and can check can you?

The reason for my asking is that I want to re-flash my rom after hex-editing it to another device name, then change the aku, then install BBConnect so I don't have to bother with all this SetModelId stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Sure! I have my dear Elfin in my hand right now. I am using it until I get my Mega working with BB connect.

The Device Type is HTC-Elf

AKU is .0.4.2 (notice the dots!)

BB connect is 4.0.0.97

I am woking right know with Windows Mobile 6.1 however it works also like a charm with BB connect and Windows Mobile 6.5.

Hope this helps!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Thanks! I am going to try this..... Fingers crossed. Thanks again Vintila.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Vintila, thanks a million. It is now working on my Topaz properly. These are the steps I took:

1. Hex-edited my Topaz Tess v2.F rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=529260&highlight=tess). Find "HTC-Topaz", then replace the characters one by one to "HTC-Elf". For the remaining characters "az" of "Topaz" I replaced these with 00 00.

2. Flashed this rom.

3. Installed SKTools and changed the AKU registry to .0.4.2 and soft resetted.

4. Changed the Settings/System/About/Device ID/Device name to HTC-Elf and soft resetted.

5. Installed BBConnect 4.0.0.97.

It all worked perfectly! Version 4.0.0.106 did not work and if I didn't do step 4 it would not work either. Strange but true.

I am now a very happy bunny! In order to further improve the system, I wrote a new mortscript to cancel the BBSecurity, so I don't need to keep inputting the security code which otherwise is enforced every 60 minutes. The mortscript goes:

Sleep (90000)

Run("Program Files\BBStopSec.exe")

I have a shortcut to it in the Windows/Startup folder. I use the BBStopSec.exe program that cOrnholio kindly wrote. Now I have no need for the SetModelId stuff!! I am so chuffed :D

Thanks to all for this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Hi mitsi!

Glad to hear you got it!

> 4. Changed the Settings/System/About/Device ID/Device name to HTC-Elf and soft resetted.

I forgot to mention this step. Yes, I have to have HTC_P3450 as Device name in order to get BB connect working in my Elfin.

Enjoy it!

Best regards

Hi mitsi,

please please which is the particular step allowing you to get all internet connections through BB? (Googlemaps too? Standard WM email accounts too?)

If that really works it would save me from repacking my rhodium! :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi asamax, I have never multiquoted before, so we'll see how this goes! I did step 4 from above. I think I also saw this discription somewhere else, but can't find it now. There was perhaps another step. Anyhow, broadly this was what I did. Now ALL my internet connections go through Blackberry and not mobile web. I don't have other WM email accounts so this doesn't apply. This includes Googlemaps and programs like Weatherpanel, Mobile TFL, Facebook, WM Messenger, Opera, QuickGPS, Sky Mobile etc.

I know Step 4 is supposed to give you multiple APN's, but I'm glad about what it has done! Perhaps an accident!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] patcat007:
There's no BBM on BB Connect you cant use. Bb COnnect is just a stripped down version of the Mail client within BB. Sorry you if you're in love with BBM then you will have to stick to using a BB

If you wanna use Blackberry Application Suite on an expensive piece of hardware like the Rhodium then might as well buy a Blackberry my friend. It will be Cheaper and there will be no trial n error. All attempts at making BAS work on Rhodium have failed, and its too buggy even RIM has dropped the Idea. Its like buying a Apple Macbook Pro and then loading Vista on to it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] efrant:
How is a Rhodium any more expensive than a BB Bold? Anyway, it's not about using BAS as your full time interface. It's about being able to use BB features on a WM device. To use your analogy, it's like buying an Apple MacBook Pro and loading Bootcamp so that you can choose whether you want to run Vista or OS X. Not even, as it's more like running a VM in OS X to run Vista when desired. As for it being buggy, isn't almost every piece of software here at xda buggy to some extent? Obviously some more than others. But in the end, this is a developers forum. People are driven by curiosity and a desire to learn. I don't have the brains/know-how to look into BAS to get it working, but I'm sure someone is already trying.

Unsuccessful

Hey all,

I have read all 9 pages of this thread from begining to end and I have literally tried everything discussed, but still cannot get this to work.

Background:

-Unlocked Verizon branded CDMA+GSM Touch Pro 2

-T-Mobile SIM inserted with a BlackBerry service plan on the account

-Phone set to GSM-only mode

-Most recent EnergyROM LEO dated March 13th, 2010.

I have tried:

-All the steps listed in the first post

-Hex-editing "HTC-RhodiumW" to "HTC-Raphael" (yes, I read that the number of characters needs to match... so didnt expect this to work)

-Changing the Device ID under the About control panel to HTC-Raphael

-Both 4.0.0.106 and 4.0.0.97

-Manually changing the AKU

-Automatically changing the AKU using the cab file provided earleir in the thread

-Anything listed in this thread, I have tried.

The problem:

-Service Status rotates between: Not Connected, Network Available, Data Tunnel Available and then back to Not Connected

-On the main BBC screen, PIN remains pending and IP Address shows No Connected

Any ideas?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] fyn3zt:
great find
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] fyn3zt:
its working.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Your statement about the number of characters needing to match is not quite correct. You WILL be able to hex edit to get it to work. When you do a search for HTC-RhodiumW and find it, then replace the characters with HTC-Raphael. This will leave you with just the "W". Just "ctrl C" one of the dots (00) and "ctrl V" on the "W".

I have done this on mine which took me ages to find one that worked. Mine is an HTC-Topaz. I couldn't replace this with HTC-Raphael because this would have meant ADDING letters in the Hex edit. Instead, I changed it to HTC-Elf which also works with AKU .0.4.2 and the device name change to HTC-P3450.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] blahbleus:
Before I posted the above message, I actually clicked on the hex representation of the "W" and change the hex value to 00 and then saved the ROM and flashed it (which did not solve it). If I use your suggested ctrl-c and ctrl-v method, do you suspect the result might be different? Just want to make sure since flashing and reconfiguring is a somewhat painful process (I haven't mastered UC yet).

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
If you managed to change it to 00 without the ctrl-c etc. method, then I guess it wouldn't make any difference. Why not try to change it to HTC-Elf using the ctrl-c method, change the AKU to .0.4.2 and device name to HTC-P3450 and THEN install version 4.0.0.97.... You could always back up before trying this and if it doesn't work, then restore it...

By the way, I'm not sure why you have the "W" there in the first place. If you just install Blackberry without any of the steps detailed in this thread, does it say HTC-RhodiumW in the Blackberry Settings About screen?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] blahbleus:
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the W stands for World phone, since it's the specific Rhodium that's capable of both CDMA and GSM.

I never actually checked the BB About Settings screen until after I hex-edited, so I know I can get it to say HTC-Raphael now, but I don't recall what it said before the hex-edit. Will have to flash back an unedited ROM to confirm.

Great idea on the Elf etc. -- I'll give that a shot and report back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] blahbleus:
No joy. :(

Tried HTC-Elf, clearing out the rest with ctrl-c and ctrl-v, changing the AKU to .0.4.2 and changing the device name to HTC-P3450, all before installing 4.0.0.97. Still stays "Not Connected". I'm begining to think there's not a way to make the CDMA+GSM version work with BB Connect. Is there a documented case of anyone getting it to work?

It Is Possible!!

Hi mitsi,

I confirm. There shall be a kind of magic in BBconnect. I reinstalled BBconnect exactly the same way I did the 1st time.

Now I have

- one email account called "system" which receives BB emails only (can't send, can't reply or forward);

- my old standard email account

- the BB email account that I had in the 1st BBconnect install disappeared!

Thus, I can't send BB email anymore!

BUT...

Sometimes, and I don't know why (about 50% times) when I send/receive standard emails the traffic goes through BB connection instead of my (expensive) GPRS connection!!! With large attachments and without all the terrible BB restrictions!! These wonderful times I can surf the web (opera) and use googlemap through the BB connection, and all other internet apps!!! The traffic is a little bit slower, but free.

Now, I think this is probably a system error, but it shows that IT IS POSSIBLE.

Possible to use BBconnection with all the WM internet apps, including email client.

Next step, for skilled people: how?:rolleyes:

Connection Droping

Hi guys,

I have a Problem with my Rhodium.

I Installed BBC ( the one in the first post ), and I did everything else as posted ( used CAB file for Radio Change ) including Multiple APNS, and Device name Change to Raphael on ROM.

I got PIN and everything else, and BBC Connected ( after the Account activation ), on Home Screen I tapped Connections and I saw two Connections ( Blackberry Internet and my Provider Internet ). I received Email, and Appointments.

But after couple of hours my Blackberry Connection dropped, I still have Pin but IP says no connection . Under second page says Service: Stopped.

Then it was down for hour and so, I received no emails, Appointments, nothing, after that it started working again. And so on-off it goes every day for the last 3 days.

Its really annoying because I need instant access to my Work Emails.

I'm using DeepShining X5.21895/23547 Sense 2.5.20121412.1 ROM, have a Full Blackberry service ( BIS and BES ) on my provider ( Mobitel Slovenija ).

I also have my Gmail set up, should I erase this account?

If you have any Ideas please help, big thanks.

PIN Pending

I've installed the BlackBerry connect app and have everything configured but the BlackBerry app still says my PIN is pending but shows the network as available.

I've tried hitting the Register Now button but it does nothing. Someone suggested using the BlackBerry connect Desktop program, however the BlackBerry app always says Activesync is blocking it and I can't find a way around that.

Just for confirmation, I have the following:

HTC Tilt 2 w/ AT&T wireless

Engergy ROM 21895, Sense 2.5 w/ MaxManila

Blackberry Enterprise services on my wireless plan

BlackBerry Connect version 4.0.0.106

BlackBerry Connect believes my phone is the Raphael

HKLM\System\Versions\Aku set to .1.6.0 (i've also tried .1.6.3)

BBC working on tmo usa tp2 but no Internet

Hey XDA,

I've read through all 10 pages and I have email working but no internet.

My Rhodium:

-HTC Touch Pro II T-mobile US (unlocked. Using Digicel network in Dominica)

-Hard-SPL unlocked (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=550131)

-ROM: Timor1.0, version 1.86.401.0 (67102) WWE, Sense 2.1, Radio 4.49.25.17 (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=576076)

-No Internet on my SIM Card, only Blackberry service which I believe is BIS

-BB connect 4.0.0.106 (attached to this post cause I don't remember where I downloaded it)

-BB Desktop Client 4.0.0.22 (Don't remember where I downloaded it from)

What I did:

-Changed model ID to Raphael (xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4150074&postcount=35)

-Changed AKU to .1.6.3 (.1.6.0 worked also)

-Installed BBC 106 on my phone

-Didnt need to use Desktop software to get BB PIN. It was there after soft reset.

-Had to reset a few times and stop/resume in BBC settings before BBC status said connected.

-Set up email and was able to send and receive

-Had my girl send me a PIN message from her Pearl which I got but cannot reply to

The problem is that I have no Internet access. I've tried everything in these 10 pages but nothing worked. However, when I put my SIM in an actual Blackberry, I have Internet access plus email.

Is there anyway around this? Or does BBC only have email access?

I also tried BAS (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=626456) but I don't have an enterprise account to activate it so I can't test it out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Mitsi,

The good news is there is already HSPL for the Mega. The bad news is that changing the device ID is not working.....

I have change the device ID editing the official ROM to several others ID (Elf, Raphael, Tilt....) and changing also the AKU and device name without success, always PIN pending. I do not know what is going wrong.

See the pictures attached, you will see HTC-Raphael in the About screen in BB connect. Look at the Settings  Device Information  Identity screen, Model No.: is HTC Touch2 T333, I do not know if this can cause the PIN issue.

I would like to know if you are using WM 6.5 or 6.1 in your Diamond2 and what info you have in the Settings  Device Information  Identity screen, Model No.:

Thanks a lot
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi Vintila,

I had read elsewhere that you had finally got your HSPL, but now people were complaining that there was no custom roms to download! Anyway, congratulations!

I can't see why yours isn't working. In my Identity screen I have Touch Diamond2 T5353, so I don't think that is the problem for you. In my Blackberry Settings/About screen it says HTC-Elf.

Perhaps you could try AKU of .1.6.3 and .1.6.0 and also BBConnect version 104 with the HTC-Raphael hex-edited rom. Alternatively do what you did on the Elf and what I have also done - use HTC-Elf, version 97, AKU .0.4.2 & Device ID HTC-Elf or HTC-P3450.

By the way, I have WM6.1.

Good luck.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Vintila:
Thanks Mitsi, I think that can be the issue. I had WM 6.1 in my Elfin, when I upgraded to WM 6.5 I think I had to change to a different BB connect version in order to have it working (I do not remeber which) , however I only stayed one day with WM 6.5 as I do not like.

Let's hope somebody cook a WM 6.1 for the Mega so I can to installa BB connect 4.0.0.97 with the Elf settings.

This could be a couple of things.

Anyone got it (BBC 4.0.0.106) working on BES 5.0?

Thanks to the help on this forum, I've had BBC version 4.0.0.106 running virtually problem-free on my TP2 since September last year. At the server end, my firm has been running BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1.x. (4.1.7 according to the "About" page on my BBC settings). My firm is now migrating the BlackBerry service over to a new server, running BES 5.0. My IT admins have been told by RIM that BlackBerry Connect was dropped before the launch of BES 5.0, so it won't work. They will be turning off the old BES in a couple of months' time when migration is complete. Does anyone have any experience of BBC (any version) working on BES 5.0 so that I can persuade my IT colleagues that it's worth persisting?

Thanks very much.

Are you sure about this?. The BES 5.0 Policy Reference Guide states:
