Anyone know how to turn off 3G on the TC? I was able to install Dutty's 10 button comm manager on my Tilt, and that let me turn off 3G, but I can't get that to install on the TC.
Also, anyone know how to permanently disable the Touch Keyboard and Keypad? I've tried using Tweaks2k2, but that doesn't seem to work on the TC.
Thanks in advance.
Dave
you could go into settings>connections
and remove the isp settings then it would not be able
to use cellphone internet

Unfortunately, SIPchange doesn't disable and SIP's as far as I can tell, unless I'm missing something. It just lets you change which one you're using, which I can do already.

OK, so I see what SIPchange does now..it doesn't enable/disable any particular sip, but it set's the default on bootup. Which works for me. Thanks for letting me know about this.
How about this:
Go to the phone settings, click on the 'Band' tab, an there's some thing like 'Select your network type', and a list under it. Select GSM, and it won't use 3G or HSDPA again for your data connections.

You can also use SKTools and completely disable the SIPs you want and they will not appear in the pop-up menu of available SIPs.
Setting -> Phone -> Band -> Network Type -> GSM - will completely disable 3G and will save batery life...
to disable 3G, use schap's advanced config tool, search on the forum.

anyone found a version of a commmanager cab with a disable 3G button that works for the kaiser? the ones i've found cause the wifi to no longer function...
im waiting on this as well. the only cab file i found could not be uninstalled so i figure i would wait.

I turned on the uninstallable switch but I have no way to test to be sure it works. I can only guarantee that it will show up in remove programs.
Thanks! ill wait until someone tests it though. anyone?
Nice App.
Hi,
I installed this app on my pre-production kaiser and it works fine, including uninstallation
It replaces the data connection icon in the comms manager so once installed it is slightly more difficult to disconnect from GPRS.
Apart from this.. it works fine if you want to disable 3g networking.

this was said in the original forum
"Hi, I just found out I think that if I switch between GSM to Auto band using this comm Manager the phone will make GSM Band as priority over 3G band. If I switch to 3G Band only manually through Phone Setting, then switch to Auto then the Phone will make 3G as priority. Strange!"
i wonder if this is really the case. i did notice the other day that i had the band set to auto and there was an "E" icon showing. i then switched to 3g and an "H" was showing. i dont understand why it wouldn't have automatically been on "H" since auto was selected.
im going to give this file a shot just a quick back up first.
Also looking for this. I'm hoping someone can craft one with both the Data and the 3G buttons. The stock CM has a space for another button already. Someone's gotta be able to add the 3G button in, please!
3g button doesnt seem to work properly. i confirmed that the quote from my previous post was true.
Oh well. I read a post about someone missing all the little things XDA created for the Hermes. Here is another example and I am starting to wonder if I want the Tilt the 1st day or even few months. It will take a while for the Kaiser to get all the hacks working.
I'm one of those people! But, most tweaks are now in place, I just added this com manager and it's great to be able to throttle down the connection once again to save battery. I'm finding AE Button extremely useful in making these tweaks work like the Hermes.
This com manager works well and as mentioned, it would be better if the Data AND 3G keys could both be present since there is space. Since the Kaiser's Red button no longer breaks the connection when pressed and held, I've used AE Button to map a key, I double-press one to "close dialup connection" which breaks the connection. Works great!
I've tried this .cab on my TyTN II and I've uninstall it.
It doesn't disable your connection like NoData of MoDaCo does.
The one im using works fine, but doesn't have the Data button ( i dont really care) . It does have a beam button though which is obviously useless on the Kaiser, so i suppose that should be replaced with Data. My biggest hope is that someone can replace "Wireless Modem" with "Internet Sharing". I cant get the BT PAN in my laptop to connect when i use Wireless Modem, but it works great with the windows Internet Sharing app.
Unfortunately the installation does not work , shortly before finishing it said
that the program has not the necessary permission ...
any hints ?
make sure comm manager is not running in the backgrounmd
10B with 3G Comm Manager
Here is the one with fixed WLAN link button. Use it to see if it works.
My Fuze is always connected via EDGE, even though I live in a 3G serviced area (San Francisco Bay Area). I'm assuming the phone is choosing the stronger of the two signals by default, which is fine for voice, but EDGE is excruciatingly slow for streaming video. Is there a way to force the phone to use the 3G connection?
I dont know about the Fuze but on the european Touch Pro, all you have to do is
Start --> Settings--> "Phone" Icon -->"Band" Tab
Here you can choose your netwok type, by default it is set to auto, but you can force CDMA only if you want.

Thank you for the help, but unfortunately there is no "Band" tab under Start --> Settings --> Phone on my Fuze.
Install the Advanced Config utility (you can find it pretty easily if you search the forums). Using this you should be able to restore the phone app's band page. This is a common way carriers prevent you from messing with settings they don't want you to. You're actually lucky, there are more tricky things to fix than this one .
I got my Fuze today and was wondering this exact question about the 3g network and your fix worked!
Thank you

What setting was changed to get this effect? Sorry ultimate PPC newb.
Once you install and have Advanced Config up and running you go to Phone tab, click on it and it opens a new tree if items for you to click on, scroll down some til you find "Show Band Page" click on it and then change it from "No (default)" to Yes. Click the left soft key that says "Done" and then it will ask you to restart your phone, click yes on that message and once its back up and running you should have access to the band tab in settings for the Phone.
If you have any other questions post here and I'll try to help out.

Check this thread & this post.
does anyone know how to permanently disable wifi on a at&t tilt 8925, or know where I can find out from. by permanently I mean remove or disable the wifi antena, or some kind of program to edit the connection manager and remove the wifi on off switch.
try to delete this registry with registry editor: (it will ruin your registry setting about wifi, so wifi is permanently disabled, as your request)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETW1251]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETW12511]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
and for the comm manager: make sure you dont have any text written "WLAN" in here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\5]
@="DataDisconnection"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\4]
@="3G"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\3]
@="WLAN" -> remove this, change to something else (ActiveSync, etc)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\2]
@="Bluetooth"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\1]
@="Phone"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\0]
@="FlightMode"
there, you wont have any wifi in comm manager and available wifi,.
which editor should I use, and do u also know how I could delete bubble breaker and solatire
This worked somewhat for my somewhat bricked 8525 with WM6.1 (couldn't get radio working). There wasn't a "TNETW1251" but something similar "TNET..." Only problem was I set it up while WiFi was enabled so now it searches for WiFi and there seems to be no way to disable it.
I will eventually put those Registry items back so I can see what the deal is. Does this work similarly on an HTC Fuze? Whether I can disable WiFi will be a determining factor in whether I will buy the Fuze.

I don' mean to pry and if it is none of my business just say so, but why go to those extremes when you can just " shut it off" in your comm manager.
Two login names Joe? or two separate people coincidently named Joe.
I am a man with little self control, who is relying on the strength of God and His guidance for wiser choices. I love my 8525, but I "done it in," so I'm thinking of upgrading to something newer that has the same features. None of the other phones had the QWERTY board like I wanted. I use a program called Pocket eSword and have a ton of notes and highlighting in it. I may just continue using my 8525 as a PDA and get something simpler, but I also like the idea of an all-in-one. I also like using Word and Excel. Any insight would be appreciated.
Has anybody tested this?

Here is my own aGPS settings cab.
Created originally for my Raphael, but works perfectly fine on my Rhodium (Touch Pro 2) and should work on any other WM6.1/5 aGPS capable device.
This replaces the default aGPS server to the one GOOGLE aGPS server. This has been found to dramaticaly increase GPS lock speed! After applying this cab i get cold Locks in about 20 seconds and warm gps lock in under 15!
Don't be scared to try it out as its easy to revert to defualt settings!
Try it out and report your results!
I created this so I can just add it to my UC list making life easier in setting up a rom after flashing and thought others might benefit from it.
Feel free to comment, hate, or appreciate
If there is a demand, i can easily delete the At&t bit and so its more generic, also if you want this adapted for your provider, reply with your APN and GPRSConnection and i can create the cab for you
It sets the following in the [HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL aGPS\] Registry
DynamicURL to supl.google.com (searched on the internet and many people claim much faster locks than the default h-slp.mnc410.mcc310.pub.3gppnetwork.org)
EnableAGPS 1 (so aGPS is enabled in settings)
EnableLocInfo 0 Unchecks "Enable AGPS loation information to network services. Operator can get your location information." From the Privacy tab of the AGPS Settings
ServerIP to 74.125.113.192
ServerURL and TLSHostName to supl.google.com
Decided to just make a Generic one that sets the nokia aGPS server, enables aGPS, disables Location info and no network configuration.
[UPDATE: The cabs are the SAME as the previous ones titled FF ATT/Fido/Generic Nokia aGPS Settings, I just changed Nokia to Ultimate because I was getting PMs on how to install them on nokia devices]
update 3/30/10: updated the cabs to use the google supl which is provided on android devices!
There is no need for carrier specific settings, they should automaticly fill in from info already on your device. If you go to HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL aGPS\ and APN, Network, and GPRSConnection are empty after you've installed the cab and soft reseted, then post here and i will make carrier specific cabs.
[06/08/2010] Re-attached the supl.nokia cab as requested. Please test and compare to the newly attached "FF Ultimate aGPS Tweak_supl.google_Generic.cab" and report your results.
When i ping supl.nokia.com requests time out leading me to believe nokia's servers are down, or they changed them to something else.
[size=+2]With FF Ultimate aGPS Tweak_suple.google_Generic.cab i get a lock in under 15seconds, even after hard reset!![/size]

Auto Connect?
Hi, I have installed the generic cab. But one question: do I have to establish the data connection by myself manually? I mean, applications like explorer or email do connect automatically once they need it. Apparently AGPS doesn't.
Further, as far as I understand, the generic cab should work everywhere if not limited by your carrier, right? I wonder if it works in Singapore though. Any ideas?

Not 100% sure if it is supposed to activate the data connection or not. If it doesn't, just fire up internet explorer before you decide to use your GPS to have a data connection.
And the generic cab is without data settings, so yes it should work in singapore or with any carrier

Which one do i use for tmobile>?
I installed the generic one on my TP which is on T-Mobile UK.
It did not seem to get a quick lock when I had the data connection disabled.
I enabled the data connection and it seemed to get a quick lock.
So I take it that the generic one will not fire up your data connection itself, but if you get an operator specific one it can?
If so, could I have a version for T-Mobile UK please? I am not sure what the password is, these are the settings I can find on my phone:
APN: general.t-mobile.co.uk
User: T-mobile
Pass: ??? (Starred out)
Is there not maybe some way of taking this info from the phone or automating this process so you dont have to make unique versions of this app?
And what about QuickGPS, does this make it redundant?
Thanks
What about touch pro cdma? Should this work for CDMA? I see no APN key in registry. How could I make it work?
