I have several more weird problems with my Tilt 2 which has been flashed with the WXW version 2.10.50212114. I just moved to Dallas and the weather on the home page shows Houston instead of Dallas. Before wherever I was at I would get that weather.
Another issue is since moving to Dallas I cannot get my personal e-mails on my phone. It just runs and runs and finally errors out. It also hangs up when disconnecting. I do not know if this is a phone issue or an AT&T mail issue. I have a Bellsouth e-mail address
One more issue is whenever my phone and the bluetooth in my truck connect the phone goes to my music on my phone. This seems like it would be a phone issue.
Any ideas?
I was able to get my e-mail working, but have not been able to resolve the other two issues.
Any ideas out there???

For the weather problem, try updating with the 3G radio disabled in Comm Manager.
For the Bluetooth issue. all I can say is that some radios play better with different devices.
There is not a setting for the 3G radio on Comm Manager. Below is what is there.
Airplane Mode
Phone
Bluetooth
Wi-Fi
Microsoft Direct Push
Data Connection
Wifi Router
Everything is on except for Airplane Mode and WiFi Router.

Well, I don't know which ROM you are using, but the setting can also be found in Start > Settings > Connections > Advanced Network. There should be a drop down box there. Set it to Disable. This will make it so the device only connects to GPRS or EDGE networks. This should allow you to update the weather location without a problem.

I found the setting and disabled it. This disabled HSDPA/HSUPA. I then did a reset, but it is still showing Houston instead of Dallas which is where I am right now. Checking the GPRS setting it is asking if I want PAP or CHSP authentication.

If that still isn't working, then the only other things I can suggest are to ask your carrier to reset your connection to the network, or input the location manually. JVH3 made a Weather City Editor app that will add cities to the list if Sense doesn't have them by default.

Anybody else find that if it can't connect to a wireless network, it deletes the saved settings? The most recent time it actually said invalid key and prompted for a new key rather than just doing the usual delete job.
Also, would be nice if you could paste into the touchflo 3D config page rather than having to go into the advanced config. Would be a small detail if I didn't have to enter the key again every time I go out of range!
Thanks
I know your problem. It's more a windows mobile problem.
At the moment you click on a connection (router) on your wm device, it will loose the network key. So don't do that.
I've had the problem with one router at our home, but it was the router was faulty. Often it wasn't possible to connect. We got a new one, and it didn't happen egain.
I also experience that the wifi connection drops with the TP2 several times a day. This does not happen with all the other devices so I guess that this is a TP2 specific problem....
My old TYTN2 didn't have this problem but I have heard the occasional complaint in the office. The TP2 consistantly looses the settings.
I contacted HTC support and that is what they recommend. Just applied the settings so I can't say yet if that works.
"I would recommend that you set your WLAN to best performance on your device. This will normally cure any network problems you are having. Please see the instructions below for more information. - Start - Settings - Connections - Wireless LAN - Power Mode - Move bar all the way to the left for Best Performance - Perform a soft-reset - Try and re-connect to your WiFi Network"
my wifi always not connecting...

got the same one .. will try the cure described bellow
Yesterday i had the same thing. I lied in bed, and turned on wifi. It tried to connect, and connect, but after a while, it says: new wifi network found.
So I connected, and I had to fill in again my wifi password… really strange.
TP2 looses wifi settings
Try configuring network key using WPA + TKIP instead of WPA2 which helped fixing my TP2 wifi settings
Soo... does Windows messenger not work over a Wi-Fi connection? Mine only seems to want to work over the data network (edge) Soon as i got the no-data installed and turned off the edge bands, it no longer wants to connect.
Anyway to tell it to use the Wi-Fi? or will i have to get a muilti chat client to connect to it?
That's odd. Messenger works for me via wifi. I turned off the phone radio, turned on my wifi, attempted to log in to Messenger, and it works.
I jus tried that to.. no luck. i just get "Their's a connectivity problem, make sure you're in an area with good reception and try again"
This might be an issue with your network selection.
Check in connection setting --> advanced --> select networks.

Hi guys, after installing the latest radio on my Hero I get the feeling that my mobile internet connection (both HSDPA, 3G and 2G) seem to be dropping more often than before. I haven't monitored this prior to upgrades so I can't say for sure. But is anybody having the same experience?
Also is it possible to downgrade the radio? Do you just reinstall the old radio?
Thanks.
yes i have the same issue. my mobile internet and also the gps stops to work after a while of not using the phone. i have to restart the phone to get gps back to work.
mobile internet can also be reactivated by activating and deactivating the "only 2g networks" option.
this failure sucks because i just recognize that the mobile internet is down because i didn't get push mails for a while.
I have noticed that as well
Yep me too. I can be browsing (web, market, or rss) for a while, then lose connection for a bit, then it will suddenly work again.
Can we reflash the old radio?
No need. It could be the APN settings. I was having problems on T-Mobile with HSDPA dropping and read in another post to go to the T-Mobile support page for the G2 and select Connecting to the Internet --> Set up the phone for internet surfing --> and follow the instuctions to set up a new APN. Worked for me
I have the same problem.
I have installed the new Hero ROM two weeks ago, one week ago mobile internet disappeared from my phone. Before this it was very good.
I can't find the good solution for this issue. Please help.
Same radio ROM. But there were internet for a week with this ROM.
I don't understand.
(I have tried to reflash the ROM, but not solved.)
Same problem here.
Mobile network has been unstable since I bought it.
When I turn it off for a while and turn it on again, I can't see the icon on the top bar. What I have to do is going to Settings - Wireless controls - Mobile network settings - Network operators - Select automatically.
Sometimes the connection is lost while using. I have to do the same thing like above to make it work again.
I also contacted HTC's customer service, but I haven't got any response.
Too bad!
I find if I leave it then it comes back. Every so often it goes...then the firmware eventually notices and it reconnects. Annoying. Hopefully this will be fixed when T-Mobile release thier version of the ROM update later this week.
I have the same issue, but it seems like it only happens when I leave a wirelss-zone (and not every time I do that either).
When I leave home, it will maybe 1 of 3 times not connect to 3G before I manually connect again (Settings - Wireless controls - Mobile network settings - Network operators - Select automatically)
I've just used AnyCut to create a shortcut to this menu-option so it is less annoying, but a more permanent and official fix would be great.
same thing in my one thats why i hate htc from now one loots of bugs in hero headphones led net go back to htc hd how you can release phone if is not done properly

TheBrit's settings appear to have resolved the issue. have been logged into instant messenger for more than an hour without the connection dropping off give it a go guys.
wow, how much better is that
Guys, if u have the dropping connection concern, as I did, please follow tmobile link in previous posts or a one for your mobile provide apn settings, I've just done it and have had no dropped connections for ages
i was also having the same issue but since installing the modoco 2.6 enhanced rom with the radio ending in 07.08 all has been good.

Does anyone know why when quick gps expires, it doesnt automatically update? I am on a custom ROM (mightyrom 2/1) on a CDMA Tp2 (SPRINT). the quick GPS data expires and says EXPIRED but is never automatically updated until I manually do an update. I have it set to automatically update. is there a service or something that needs to be running??
Expired means the 7 days are up that the satellite positioning was good for. It should download new positions which will then say 7 days...
Seems to work fine when I use wireless or when I update synced to my PC...
Thanks.. I know what expired means on QUICK GPS. the issue is that it NEVER UPDATES the data. I have it set to DOWNLOAD AUTOMATICALLY and ALSO to DDOWNLOAD when connected to a PC. NADA.. is there a service that needs to be running or something??
anyone with a solution??
You only need an active internet connection for the update to run. There are no services required to be running for the update. Try opening an internet connection, either 3G or wifi and then manually run the update to make sure the quickgps program itself is not corrupted. If it does update manually, likely you need to change the internet settings to allow programs to open a 3G session.

Thanks for the info.. It does run manually and everythng else runs on its own wihtout me doing anything such as EMAIL, weather, facebook tab updates, etc etc etc... I think its only the quick GPS not running when the data expires.
I also have the check in the down when connected to USB and it doesnt do that either wen I am connected to my computer...
Mine is always up to date. I look every few weeks, and quite unlike my original Tilt, it's always up to date.
check your connections page under network management and make sure of the selection under "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using". I am not sure on sprint, but at&t uses "medianet" for such connections. Try one or more of these settings to see if it makes a difference. Your mail programs are always open, running in the background, and quickgps starts up, runs and shutsdown, so it must enact a web connection, where your mail does not. Likely, since the program works manually, the settings here are not correct

I just checked and under programs that automatically connect it was set to "MY WORK NETWORK" .. then there is program that connect to a private network .. its also set to MY WORK NETWORK. I changed the top on to the choice called SPRINT .. I bet that solves it... Should I worry about the other setting for private networks?
EDIT: I changed it to SPRINT but it keeps resetting to "MY WORK NETWORK" .. how do I fix this? is there a registry setting for this?
EDIT: I put sprint for BOTH SETTINGS and it appears to save... do I need to worry about the PRIVATE NETWORK SETTING since I dont have any VPN set up on the phone.. the MY WORK NETWORK does not have any settings in it...
No, don't worry about it. It is just another option to set up alternate connections, if you need them. Leave it at Sprint for your internet connections and you should be fine. Write more if you need help,
Im on a new ROM and once again QUICKGPS is not automatically downloading when expired.. I followed the fix on here that works on the other rom I was running.. any ideas? Im on mighty 6/20
anyone??? no ideas??
Guys, I just purchased Sprint Touch Pro 2 and using it in Europe (GSM).
Though when I try to run the GPS application, it forces me to download the latest satellite data but even if my phone is connected to the internet via USB, it doesn't download anything.
Any idea why it isn't working? And also, why does the software needs to download stuff from internet, a GPS device should be finding the satellites himself, without any "aid" from external sources.
My phone is always connecting to WiFi connections automatically (as they come in range).
I don't want it to. I only want it to automatically connect to the ones which I specify (my home, my office...).
How can I configure to only connect to the networks which I specify?

you know, i don't have that behavior, my phone only connects to networks it remembered.
In the list of available wifi networks the remembered ones are at the bottom. If I hold down and select 'forget network' then they go away.

My list of available wifi shows maybe about 100 or more entries. How can I delete them all?
I have Cricket wireless service. I had initially installed a cricket app for managing wifi and I believe it may have added all of those wifi connections. I wonder if this has somehow messed up my phone. I have since deleted the app, but the problem still persists. :crying:
Well I guess deleting one at a time would work eventually

That clearly is not a realistic option as it would take me a very long time to delete that list. I also don't believe that it will fix the problem. Every time I pass a WiFi network it will just get added to the list again.
Just the other day, I was sitting on a bus and we were driving alongside another bus which offered WiFi to its passengers. My phone automatically tried connecting to the other bus's WiFi.
Does anyone know how to configure this, so that I only automatically connect to the WiFi networks that I specify? This is making using my phone with this version of Cyanogenmod very frustrating.
