i like some of the today screen programs with shortcut icons that you can use to access your most used programs, i tried trials of both phoneAlarm & Spb Pocket Plus. i have a sx66 through cingular, and my question is, through either of these 2 programs or any other programs is there a quick way to turn off the phone? thanks...
Try this file.
Worked for me quite well on my magician.
I have it combined with tdlaunch to launch application out of the today screen.....
it only disables my radio, never turns it back on. is this suppose to do both?
Yes it should. For me on my magician it´s working.
First run -> turning it off
Second run -> turning it on

Here's a link to another program that does the same. There's a similiar program for turning on/off bluetooth.

thanks jabberwock, this program works without any problems, and does exactly what i need it to do. thanks again...
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.
OK guys!
I've developed a WiFi workaround... It's written in C++ (previous version was written in VB.NET)...
I've converted it in a Windows Mobile service... with a more efficient and more effective architecture...
It works as bubble fix only...
You can get it here as WiFiService.cab or OEM_WiFiService.zip... (you need to manually uninstall previous installed version of it)
The CAB and OEM contains the wzcsvc.dll fix too (thanks to vagus).
Let me know if it works...

OK guys!
I've developed a first version of a WiFi WPA bug workaround... It's written in VB.NET and probably it's not the best in efficiency but... it seems effective...
That's the way!!!
Tomorrow or later I'll translate it in C++ as a Windows Mobile service with another more efficient architecture...
WARNINGS
It's based on a timer with an interval of 3 seconds... so to guarantee the best stability wait for 3 seconds between manual turn on or turn off...
LIMITS
This does not handle power on/off wifi bugs... only fix the reboot bug...
It seems not working when a new network is first time connected after being configured through notify messages...
You can get the cab here...
Or can get my latest ROM here...
Let me know if it works... (pay attention... it's a "beta")

Very good!
Thanky You!!!
Don't work for me.... It is working only partially, sometimes it will connect,
sometimes not (often)
I have better results when I manually turn on and off wifi to connect...
I think that this app is turning off wifi too fast....

Hi Mr Groch,
I would advise upping the timings to 5 seconds, this would give everything time to initialise and connect/disconnect cleanly.
ps........Good work!
Cheers,
Beast
New modified version... You can find the cab in the same place...
You can edit and test delays...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWPA\Interval: seconds between wifi state monitoring (default is 5)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWPA\Delay: seconds between turn on and turn off (default is 3)
I've tried to develop a C++ service... but it doesn't work... is anyone out there that can help?
New Version
This is written in C++... more efficient... but not yet a WM service... softreset required...
It works as BubbleFix too...
Let me know...
You find the cab here as WiFiService.cab...

Excellent work. Exactly what I was waiting for. It works with my Netgear wi-fi set up with WPA-PSK. Could this be incorporated in the new rom Beast is likely to release for G4 devices?
It's still buggy, I think that there will be other versions soon...
When all the known bugs solved, I'll merge it in my ROM... (for Beast ROM you should ask him for it...)
BUGS (BubbleFix)
1. Sometimes it doesn't refresh immediatly the new status... and tapping again cause the wlan driver to act strange (the network adapter simply disappears!). To quickly solve the problem you can turn wlan on by Wireless LAN applet in Settings or softreset...
2. It shows itself when flight mode is activated too...
3. It doesn't handle keyboard input in the connectivity dialog... only stylus input...
I'll work on these bugs on Monday...
Let me know about other bugs!

Thanks. waiting for the next update of your Rom with this and VOIP fix. Well done!
bugy but works. Finally I can use wifi on my Uni... Thanx a lot.
fuih... at last, my WI FI is working alright now, I can connect anytime without any problem at all - thank you
UPDATE
New version available... download again the WiFiService.cab from here...
Now it handles the flight mode and better manage WiFi power on and off...
It's still buggy if used with the common (and old) CommManager... I'll probably develop a new version of CommManager that better handles WiFi...
You can disable the BubbleFix feature changing
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWA\Balloon = 0
How does this work exactly?
I installed it on my htc touch, but I still can't connect to my WPA-PSK AES protected network :-(

The application is notified by windows when the Wifi state changes (through the HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Wifi registry value...)
When it happens, if the new state is "connecting" (i.e. 11 or 15) it switches off the Wifi device after 5 seconds (Interval) and turn it on again after 3 seconds (Delay)...
To solve your problem... you should verify two things:
1. What's the name of your Wifi device? I think you can find it HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\DeviceName
Fix: If you confirm it's stored there, I'll update the application making it read the device name from registry...
2. What are the states of the device written in HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Wifi? They would be similar...
Fix: Turn on and off the Wifi device and refresh your registry viewer window... Take note of the values and tell me...
I'll wait for your reply to update the app...
Pay attention: this workaround simulates the manual turn on and off fix... if it doesn't work manually, this application is useless...
UPDATE
New version available... download again the WiFiService.cab from here...
Now it reads the WiFi device name from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\DeviceName... it could work on other devices...

When I'm not connected wifi state is 7, when I'm connecting it's 15.

Well, the problem is the manual disable/enable trick doesn't work for me, but I thought maybe the timings were wrong so I was hoping your app would work for me. I can't understand why this trick works for everyone, except for me :-s
I'll try your updated version now, maybe this helps.
Update (recommended)
New version available as Windows Mobile service (with a more efficient and more effective architecture).
You can get it here as WiFiService.cab or OEM_WiFiService.zip... (you need to manually uninstall previous installed version of it)
For more information look at the first post of this thread...
There is another fix out here for WPA-PSK bug... I'm waiting for comments on it...
Wifi FIX
Hi,
I'm curious how progress is doing.
Going to test your fix Mamiware!
Keep you updated!
Thank you
Leo
Wifi connect's but buggy, wlan manager crashed the first time.
Needed to softreset the device to turn on WLAN again.
Wifi bubble to turn off wlan I don't see.
After the device has switched of because of power setting I can't turn wifi on again.
Need to softreset again.
I have wpa-psk tkip enabled.
CommManager version 0.9.1.1
Cheers,
Leo
btw. I'm using the latest fix

WOW! This disaster with my WiFiService!? I am encountering only a problem to start again Wifi with CommManager and WLanMgr after turning it off with the bubble (i.e. with SetPowerDevice D0)...
CommManager 1.3.7.0 and WLanMgr 3.17.0.0
I dont have a data package for my fuze so i want to disable it from connecting when i load an app that uses internet. I wish to have wifi as my default connection.
Is there a simple way to do this?
Search for the nodata app. It will allow you to disable all data connections other than wifi. I am in the same situation as you and it works out fine for me so far.
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=24287
or you could just go to your connection settings and under advanced select My work network in both drop down boxes...
um you could just go to the connection settings and delete the dial up profile
Or you could just go to Comm Manager and turn off Data Connection.
go to settings, then Communications and turn off your data connection.
yeah but he doesnt have a data connection that wouldnt stop it from dialing up would it?
If there's no wifi - it will automagically turn the data connection back on (when it needs one - weather/email/etc.). Why there's even a switch.... i dunno.
Well i did disable so it didnt even come up so i dont get charged even the smallest amount. However youtube doesnt work with wifi, everything else does.

I have disabled data connection and Youtube works great for me over wifi, so don't worry, it's not a software limitation.
I cant figure it out then, it doesnt seem to work over wifi. Perhaps your just a lucky fuze user.
Edit:WOW JUST POSTED THIS, Tried it and now its working lol
You can always ask your service provider to put a data block on your account, just to be on the safe side

Oh thanks, will do that in the future
just go to the network settings and create a fake / none network and set that as the default.
thats what i did worked perfectly
hope this helps
call at&T to have them put the internet block code on that phone number

This might sound noobish, but do you have a step by step?? Is it on Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Netwoks>....?? Thanks in advance.
Search and dowload NOGPRS cab. It should be a zipfile with a cab in it. Run the cab on yout phone. You should now have an icon that says Nodata. This allows you to toggle the connection so it can come on freely when needed by an app, or not come on at all even if an app needs it. Pretty self explanatory. No need to create fake accounts, or delete anything. If you delete stuff, then when you need to use it if ever, you have to re-enter everything. This eliminates that.
Just changed to the new WM 6.5.3 stock rom~ but im finding a few problems with power consumption. Then I realised its cus my Wifi is always turned on! In previous roms I could set wifi so that it only connected when I update my weather or browse the internet, however with this new rom I find that Wifi will always try to connect if there is a connection nearby. So I thought I'll use TD2 Tools 3 to turn it off, but then the WLAN On Demand tab inactivated so I couldnt change it~
so is there anyone out there that knows a registry or have a cab so that I can turn this tab on? or even better just make my wifi on demand?
Welcome to the club I have exactly the same problem. With my previous ROM I used G-trigger application to toggle wifi, bt and some programsn but with this new ROM G-trigger doesn't want to work. I get an error message as soon ss I try to launch it. I've come up with some workaround but haven't tested it yet. There's a small wifi toggle program which I want to use and place a shortcut to it on home screen. A bit annoying but should work untill somebody comes up with a better solution.
Fixed problem with g-trigger: downloaded it from author's website, installed in main memory (device) instead of storage card and it works - can toggle wifi, bt and control other functions with just a simple shake

Actually, I was able to find a nice cab with task manager somewhere else on the forum, but still good work and thanks.

please let me know that cab
I want to add this cab please let me know from where u got it
' In previous roms I could set wifi so that it only connected when I update my weather or browse the internet'
How did you get this? I've looked all over to find a way so instead of it connecting to 'data connection' it connects to wifi automatically, could use please send me .cab or something thanks.
