Hi, Ive just been checking my phonebill and noticed since upgrading to the 6.1WM my phone using the internet access (GPRS/EDGE). I cant physically see whats running in task manager, but it def is accessing the internet at certain stages. I have no email set up apart from windows live (Hotmail) and that is all signed out of? How to i stop this?
Have you already tried the following? The same helps to end GPRS/EDGE connection by using the Call End key (Red key) once you finished using the Internet. In fact, in many cases, the connection closes automatically after being idle for some time.
Go to: HKLM-->Comm-->ConnMgr-->Planner-->Settings-->SuspendResume
and delete ~GPRS! value.
maybe it is rss hub ? it can be configured to update rss each time it detects a connection.
In Dr. Gonzo's rom there is a util in the System folder called NoData. I use this to disable my gprs connection because I never use it and its pay per use. Its very simple to enable when you want to use data.
ok, ill take a look? What does HKLM mean?
It means you need to edit the registry on your phone, HKLM means "HKey Local Machine". I have just done this as it was leaving the data connection active on the standard WM6 HTC ROM, and it worked.
Thanks!
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I run Blackberry Connect on my Touch Pro to connect to my company BES but I prefer to suspend the service in the evenings and at weekends so I don't receive work emails in my personal time and also save a little battery life.
In the Symbian version of BBConnect there was an option to schedule when the service starts and stops each day which suited my needs well. However, I can't find this option in the WM6 version (having tried 4.0.0.100 and 4.0.0.103).
So at the moment it takes 6 clicks to manually suspend\resume the service:
Start > Settings > System > Blackberry > Status > Suspend\Resume
Can anyone help me come up with a way to either:
1) Schedule the service to suspend\resume as I would like e.g. on 0800-1800 Mon-Fri
2) Find out what changes in the registry when the BBConnect service is suspended\resumed and find a way to change this value with a single click
or
3) Create a shortcut straight to the Blackberry settings applet to a least reduce the number of clicks to get there manually
Many thanks!

There is an executable called bbsettings.exe located in \Program Files\BlackBerry. You can link to this and go to the status tab to suspend the blackberry service. I don't know if you could drive this with a script or not.

That's great! Thanks. I'm now down from 6 clicks to 4.
However, if anyone else has any ideas on how to simplify this further, I'd love to hear from you.
finaly i found a clue:
to disable bes, just kill bbmain.exe process.
to enable bes, run the bbmain.exe
to integrate this into comm manager you need vjbrisk and taskmgr (because comm manager cannot run shortcuts like :\Program Files\TaskMgr.exe" /kill bbmain.exe to kill bbmail.exe)
i have assigned 2 commands to beam and data connection settings from the topaz commmanager (the one that has on/off buttons and actions for each row) so when i press the beam action it runs bbmain and when i press data connection it runs vjbrisk witch runs vjbrisklnk.lnk witch runs taskmgr.exe /kill bbmain.exe
i will attach a cab that will create 2 shortcuts in programs folder bb_on and bb_off
and will change the action of beam and data connection in comm manager(will probably work only on the topaz comm manager).
Hey mates!
First of all I wanna wish you a hapy new year
Ok, now to my question.
I've got a HTC Touch HD a week ago.
I recognized that it establishes a data-connection without asking me.
When i'm using Wifi - no problem.
But as I don't have a data-flat that gets quite expensive, if I can't use Wifi (most of the time no wifi available).
Is it possible to set up Winmobile so that it asks me BEFORE establishing an data connection?
I didn't find any solutions, google didn't help me, too.
Of yourse I could just change the adresses in the settings.
e.g- "internet.t-mobile.de" to "internet.t-mobile.deXXX" ---> no connection possible.
But i want to receive and send MMS at any time, so that would not be possible any more.
I hope you can help me, thx.

try nodata
this should do what you need....i think
http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility-nodata/
thx, but not really what i need.
With this programm i still have to close connections by hand.
I just want WinMobile to ask me BEFORE it establishes a connection.
For example: When I open an programm which tries to download something, a popup should appear
--->
Establish data-connection?
[ ]Yes
[ ] NO
I hope u understand my problem

No one with the same problem here and a solutuon?

I have the same problem with my Touch 3G (Jade). Turning the Data Connection off in the Main Touchflow settings tab helps but doesn't stop it completely. The worst thing is that doesn't seem to download anything but just connecting is enough to start costing.
I spoke to HTC today and they gave me a solution to this problem. Go to Settings, Connections, Connections, Advanced and then Select Networks. There you should find a drop down tab with something like ******GPRS, where ****** is your network. Now now choose New and create a new connection name like "No GPRS" for example. Click OK.
You now have a title but no settings so when you select this one, the phone can't connect to the internet. It might attempt to connect but it won't go through. Don't worry about MMS as this uses a different set of settings and works perfectly (for me).
Hope this helps, Woolly.
Find what apps are creating the connection so you can prevent it. Spb Monitor should be able to show you that.
Using Modaco NoData (link given above) will just do the same saving your time (you don't have to create a fake connection set).
What schlitzohr1812 wants is a way to make WM ask for permission to connect. I haven't heard of anything like this, but if you assign a shortcut to NoData it's almost as easy as what you are looking for. By the way, despite the name, NoData will prevent WM from opening connections, not only to exchange data over them.
Just remember that if you disable the connection while it is already open, you still have to close it manually. Also beware that if in your Comm Manager you have an enabled "Data connection" button (on some phones it's always disabled when the connection is closed, on others it can be used to open it), that button WILL open a connection even if they are disabled.
Thx for helping guys, but "Black Antitoon" is right.
That's not exactly what I was searching for but better than nothing.
I'm used to my old nokia phone (N70) which asked me before.
Incomprehensible why Windows Mobile does not have such an option...

anybody wrote an app for this data permission yet please?
This took me a while, but I finally figured it out through trial and error. I know there are a few options out there for tethering, but this has always been the preferred way to tether when I was using the Diamond. It's wireless, you can initiate the connection from the PC, and it gives you better battery life than WMWiFiRouter or HTC Wifi Sharing. Best of all, you DO NOT need to initiate a DATA connection on the phone before connecting to your PC! Just fire up the BT DUN connection on your PC, click Dial, then browse the web!
Here's how we do this:
Install DotFred's TaskManager
Click select Menu, Tab Options, Select Tab, Services. Find "CM Guardian", click and hold until menu pop up and select "Set Manual".
Make the following changes on your TP2 with a Registry editor:
1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll"
2. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"
3. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\Wmodem]
Check Profile=0
Connected=0
Multi-NAI=0
WModemDUN=0
4. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\DUNServ er\ControlPanel]
Enabled=1
That's it! Re-pair your TP2 to your PC and BT DUN should be available as one of the services. Create a new DUN profile on your PC, leave username and password blank, and set dial number as #777. Click dial and you should be able to connect... just like old times.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have been ripping my hair out over this. However, I am on Verizon and thus my HTC Touch Pro2 has somewhat different entries in the registry than Sprint does. Does anyone know how to get DUN working with the HTC Touch Pro2 on Verizon? I bought a laptop specifically with Bluetooth just to use my phone as the modem but cannot get it working for my life.
After I did all the registry edits I could that you mentioned (even though all of them were not available since I'm on a different provider) I noticed when I try to dial out for a SPLIT second I will see "Dial Up Networking" listed under Bluetooth services. Windows promptly gives me a dialing error and that service on my phone disappears.
Anyone can give any pointers?
I don't have a Service called "CM Guardian". I have a custom ROM, would that make a difference?

Yes, some Rom chefs may have eliminated this service. I know MightyMike left it in his Rom, but I have not tested others on the TP2.
KD8FRE
Would this service be in WM6.5? If I download MightyMike's ROM would it be in there or is it only in WM6.1?
Thanks for this.

MightyMike's Rom does indeed have CMGaurdian. I cannot speak for other TP2 Roms, but his does.
KD8FRE
Can anyone give any pointers on getting this to work on the Verizon version of the phone? Been searching high and low!
There is no "CMGaurdian" on my phone. I did a full search for it and it's nowhere to be found. I have the stock Windows Mobile 6.5 rom. But it looks like without being able to set that as manual, I have to change the registry everytime I end up having to restart my phone. But even when I do that, it still goes back to phone as modem after a few minutes instead of staying on Sprint.
Awesome!
Thanks for the info. The connection sharing wasn't working for me anyway.
Just an FYI, you can optionally edit the registery to set the CMGuardian to Manual.
Open a reg editor and navigate to [HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
Locate the Index key and change the value from 2 (default) to 1.
So anyone on Sprint TP2 with 6.5 stock rom actually got Wmodem to work? I've spent about 24 hr trying just about everything with no luck so far.
I made all the above reg changes, have WModem v02 installed on my TP2. Activate the wmodem prog, connect to computer with usb cable. When i try to connect on my computer, it stucked on verifying user name and pass. There is some sort of data connection going on on the phone itself, but the computer connected to the phone couldn't seem to go pass that "verifying user name and pass"
Much appreciated any help or comment. Thanks
Just wanted to add that I found this thread useful, got the registry entries and made a cab for it. This is for Sprint only! Download, install, and go, no need for registry editing!
Problem tethering via Bluetooth DUN to pspgo
Ok, I am pulling MY hair out on my ATT tilt 2. I am trying to use my fone as a bluetooth modem for my pspgo.
It seems that my Tilt 2 receives the data from the pspgo, but its not sending any data to the pspgo, when I test the connection the tilt2 receives about 9-16 bytes, but it says sent: 0 bytes.
I have energyROM july 16 2010 WWE winmo 6.5
Manilla 2.5.20161332.0
Build: 23563.5.5.0
I have seen vids of people doing this on the Raphael (FUZE) and other phones
I keep getting this connection error on my psp: (8030000B) I have tried so many dial #'s, changing settings, PDAnet,
I think the problem has something to do with:
it being WinMo 6.5 or
The custom ROM has disabled something in the Bluetooth or
Since the ROM is custom, the psp wont recognize this for some reason because just like the WIFI router; the carrier doesn't know I'm tethering. or
I have the wrong Dial-up # or
Authentication settings or Initialization command is wrong or
I need to use a Proxy network
Some other reason ( The ROMS BT stack) whatever that is lol
Does anyone have this or similar problem? Or know whats happening here?
Any help would be awesome!
Thank you
Worked Perfectly
After making the changes you suggested, this worked perfectly on my TP2. It's so funny, after I initially got my TP2 and tried it, I instantly gave up. Now that I'm a month away from going to a new carrier, and most likely a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, I got really interested in getting this working. It was a breeze using the Resco Explorer Demo with included Registry Editor.
TP2 Stock WM6.5
Doesnt work for me. I dont have CMGuardian.
I went ahead and edited the registry anyway and still didnt work even after rebooting.
I'm hoping someone can help figure this out... Trying to tether with my new Xoom!
Thanks a lot defcon6, I was looking for this some time ago, but no look, but know, looking for some other thing i found it, thanks again
Same here, stock 6.5 rom and no CMGuardian. Did you ever figure this out?
Never mind, I did run the cab from pengc99 and it worked fine. After soft reset of the phone, it never got out of the "modem negotiating" state but running the cab again fixed it. Now if I just could find the equivalent to CMGuradian I would be all set but this is at least working.
Bluetooth setting to ALWAYS ON?
Thanks to this thread and the pengc99 file, I successfully (quite some time ago) paired my TP2 via the bluetooth to a Nexus 7 tablet as well as an android phone, but each time I turn on the phone, I have to go through the following steps:
1. Select Communication Manager
2. Turn ON the Data Connection
2. Click on Bluetooth
3. Select one of my paired devices, such as the Nexus 7 by clicking the large "+" icon
4. Select Bluetooth Networking
5. Select the "Share Internet Connection" option
6. Click Continue on the bottom
I tried various registry edit searches here and on google, but cant' find any way to lessen these steps or preferably have the Bluetooth sharing set to ON at all times. If anyone knows how to simplify this process, please post the stops or file that will help us all.
Thanks in advance
Im just wondering if there is any way of making a shortcut to nodata which will deactivate/activate a specific connection?
I know that some apps have things like that built in, like the xdaShutdown that I have linked in my sig. If you make a shortcut to the .exe and add some text onto the end of it, it will do a specific function (in xdaShutdowns case, either shutdown, restart etc)
I use Nodata so often to turn on and off ONE connection so often that Its getting annoying having to open the app and then get notifications when you do things etc.
Id just love a shortcut in the start menu (which i would place into Sense)
which just enables or disables that specific connection without the hastle of going into the app and selecting it specifically.
My question is; is there any way of doing this?
The easiest thing to try may just be a mortscript that toggles the connection. Nodata basically just flips the keys from 0-1 in HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{xxxx}\Connections\...\enabled. I'm not sure if the guid is the same for everyone or not, and I'm also not sure if you need to soft reset or not if you do it with a mortscript (maybe nodata gets around that somehow-kind of doubt it, though). Or you could just export the key with dotfred's regedit when it's 0 and 1, and then import either one whenever you want to kill or enable the connection.
aah, right.
Thanks for the reply
erm, ive never really done anything with mortscript
I know what it is and have used it before, but never made anything myself
How might I go about making this as you suggested?
It's pretty simple. I just tested out a set, and it appears to work fine (although I don't actually have a data plan, lol). This is the basic form (I left out some of the guid-no idea if this is common to everyone or if it's hooked just to me).
Turn on voicestream:
Code:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4BxxxxxxxB1AA}\Connections\wap.voicestream.com","enabled",1)
Turn it off:
Code:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4BxxxxxxxB1AA}\Connections\wap.voicestream.com","enabled",0)
You need to have mortscript installed for it to run. It's pretty much instantaneous. I have 3 data streams (all of which do jack, but can mess with my wi-fi connections); just create text files for whatever you want, and change the extension to .mscr. When you click it, it will execute. I'm sure you could write a toggle script, but that's way beyond my skills, lol.
Thanks Ted, Ill try that out now
Awesome
Works brilliantly
Obviously had to change the location slightly because of having a different connection name; Mine calls it "Contract Internet" instead of "wap.voicestream.com"
Thanks
Now I have on/off buttons in my quicklinks on Touchflo 2.5 (sense)
