When i have pushmail active on the Treo i.e. set it in sync schedule to 'as items arrive' and i try to make a modem connection over bluetooth through the Treo, i see that he disconnects the internal internet connections but reconnects directly after that for syncing again. the modem connection then fails. when i set it to manual sync, it works: when i connect from the laptop i see the internal connection closing on the Treo and after that the laptop connection comes up.
I find it quite a hassle to set the sync schedule to manual every time and often i forget to set it back to 'as items arrive'. is there an easier way to make the modem connection without having to change settings on the Treo. It would be so much easier if you could keep the phone in your pocket.

Hi Guys,
I am running active sync 4.5 on my works pc and I want to connect my wm6 device to it whilst I am at work. However, my device checks my gmail and this is blocked via my works network, so i want my device to stay connected to gprs and use that instead of try to use my pc connection.
Is there a setting in Active sync to tell it to use its one connection to the internet instead?
I have set that this PC is connected to the Work network and that has not made any difference.
What else can I try?
Thanks
Doh, I reread the option underneath and the 'allow wireless connection whilst device is connected' sorts this out!
Ok tell a lie.
The GPRS now stays connected but the device isnt using it to connect to the internet. It still tries to use the pass through.
Anyway around this? I assume i need to adjust my connection settings to do with 'work' and the 't-mobile internet' connections.
I noticed that if my phone is connected to ActiveSync, and i replied to a call; it gets disconnected!!!
this was not the case in TytnII...
any idea, why is this?
at my Hermes it was like that. When I pick up a phone call the data connection stops. Perhaps it has something to do with the edge service.
Try to allow data conections while connected on WDMC or ActiveSync.
Cheers
it's already set to allow wireless connection...!!
i use the same settings with my TyTnII, and it works.
but still not working with the TP
When you receive a call fromt eh TP the screen will shut down which in turn will close the connection with active sync. Turn the screen back on again and you regain your connection.
or you can change settings at advanced config to always on top.
hey, I have a problem with my HTC TP.
it always prefers the HSDPA link when connecting with a web based application souch as opera or MSN.
Even if I have it connected to a Wi-Fi it still boots up the HSDPA and goes online using that link.
I'm new to WM, so this is a bit vague, but I had the same problem, but I fixed it at some point last week...
There is a setting, somwhere (I told you it was a bit vague!), that tells programs to use WiFi as the default connection. I can't for the life of me remember where, and I've flashed roms since, but I'm sure it was a windows setting in "settings > Connections".
Sorry I couldn't be any more help, but at least you know there is a fix, somwhere...!
Hehe, thanks, I've tried looking for this feature for hours, becouse I can't for the love of whoever understand why there wouldn't be an option for it
there isn't one because it shouldn't need it. As long as your Wi-Fi is set to Internet, and Not work, it should always use that as long as it is connected.
Just having Wi-Fi turned on doesn't cut it.
There are certain applications that will always use the cellular network, like pushmail, but in general, all apps will use whichever internet connection is available. and if Wi-Fi isn;t connected, it will automatically connect to GPRS/3G.
Wellt hats the problem, I connected it t my home Wi-Fi set it as internet connection and the problem remains. I have redone the settings several times and it still prefers the HSDPA connection.
if I turn of all other alternatives to connect to the web, like removing APN settings for GPRS and HSDPA it uses the Wi-Fi, but as long as there is another Access link to the net the Wi-Fi isn't used
I have the same problem with Hotmail syncing (not defaulting to Wi-Fi), but not with Opera. I do have to change the connection settings though first from the T-Mobile Internet (and their magic transparent proxy) before Opera can work over Wi-Fi, but I thought the connection settings were just for HSDPA/GPRS connections. I'm finding this increasingly frustrating that I need to reconfigure everything depending where I am.
BTW, to get Hotmail to use Wi-Fi I have to go to the Comm Manager and turn off "Phone", turning off "Data Connection" doesn't work, because it craftily turns it back on, seconds later!
Hi
I've search high and low for the answer and no luck so wondering if any of you know the answer
I have a HP214 PDA (wm6) and use the active sync via Bluetooth dial up connection.
Problem is when I do a send/receive on Emails it will automatically dial up the connection and sync but it will not automatically drop the connection.
I've set Activesync to manually sync items but this does nothing to automatically drop the connection
Does anyone know the solution to this or a reg setting I can use
Many thanks
Martin
Computer OS: XP SP3
Device: HTC TP2

I have my device connecting and syncing fine to ActiveSync on the computer via Bluetooth, but I would like a quicker way to establish connection. When I get out of Bluetooth range and then re-enter there is no auto-reconnect, so I must go to Settings > Communications > Bluetooth, then under the computer's name click on ActiveSync every time. This gets the job done, but it's too much rigmarole every time I want to establish a connection and synchronization.
If I go to the computer and go into ActiveSync and try to connect under Connection Settings it doesn't see the device. Is there a quick, easy way to connect by creating a shortcut or otherwise not requiring so much interaction to get connected and synchronized? When I set-up ActiveSync through Bluetooth I rather expected it to connect and sync automatically when it got in range, but that would've been to easy I suppose.
Yes i'm wondering the same thing. Is there a reg key for editing this? I normally leave Bluetooth on and would like it to auto connect. My old K800 could do it so i don't see why WM6.5.3 can't.
Is this what you are after? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530327
Yes thanks, that's all i'm after. I was having troubling searching for it.
