Is your PC telling the right time?
Yes and i turned off the automatically sinchronize with an internet server both phone and pc .
There are several options to sync time between a WM device and the rest of the world:
1.) Active Sync (Built in, you found it already).
2.) GSM network (Settings > Time& Alarm > Date&Time > Automatic Timezone)
3.) a 3.rd party app that may connect via internet to a time-server
Any of the above rely on that you have set the timezone correctly on your device. Sometimes option 2.) should be switched off as some network operators are not setting their network timezone correctly.
I had a time problem with my phone calendar when I connected it to my computer. Make sure both devices are set to the same timezone.
For example: if you live in Timbuktu, make sure the phone timezone and computer timezones are both set to Timbuktu.
Its working now . Ty .

Ever since I installed phonealarm, ActiveSync has been a problem. Either it does not connect or auto-matically connects after every 4 to 5 mins, syncs calender and contacts for one minute and then disconnects.. Problem is if I am transferring a file to storage card, it disconnects before transfer is complete and then reconnects and then disconnects...
Somebody plz help me....
Have you tried this from the WiKi?
How can I stop Active Sync from always turning-on even when it is not connected to my PC?
Go to menu->add server source->write down any server address (fake)->complete procedure then menu->schedule->switch to manually (at the top of the list)
You have to give us more details. Was it working OK before phonealarm? How are you connected? Have you checked phonealarm's settings?
On my experience, the latest version of phonealarm causes problems, so I still am using version 1.58.

After you've done all this, un-check the boxes on the programs being sync'd. This should stop active sync, and creating a control log in windows. Here's a screen shot of un-checking boxes so you understand what I'm talking about.
ok, here is the deal, im going to try to be as specific as possible so i dont cause too much trouble. Thank you in advance!
Phone: Omnia
Version: Lite02
Provider: Wind Greece
Problem: I used to be able to connect to the internet ONLY through my wi-fi connection. In order to "reprogram" the whole deal (under settings > connections > connections) i deleted all the settings there thinking i could do it correct if i started from scratch.. what i fool i was.
Exactly what i did: I installed the Htc_Network_Wizard_GR (in order to get the greek settings automatically for wind. Also, i installed a cab which added a "Opera Widgets" program - cab's name: echOpera Mobile 9.5 b2520.
Current situation: Under connections i got Wind Internet, which apparently has the correct GPRS settings, because, when i set it under advanced > Select Networks > Programs that automaticaly connect to internet:, AND select the Opera browser to use that connection to connect to the internet, Opera DOES connect and show pages JUST FINE! on top of that when i pass from Opera a youtube video to CorePlayer to play it.. It DOEs!
Now, EVERY other program that uses internet doesnt seem to find the connection!! for example, youtubeplay, when i press feed: top rated, it IMMEDIATELY sends message "search failed, internet connection not working or timeout." Same goes for: SPB weather, Insight, and even the built-in e-mail (from the windows)
A secondary problem, is that now, every program, INCLUDING the Opera browser, DOESNT find as an internet connection my wifi! meaning, although i connect nicely to the only source i could go online from my omnia, now thats gone too. In addition, where i think the problem with that one is, Under Wifi > Network Adapters > My network card connects to > there is NOTHING to select from.. how do i change this?

ok, an update, ive come to the conclusion that i *probably* need to restore some registry keys in order to make this god damned phone work at last.. anyone who can provide me with a cab probably? which can restore the previous settings? :S
dont make me format the phone again. please.
you could ring the provider and ask them to send you setting to your
Hi,
I have been experiencing major problems with my email checking. Most of the time it doesnt follow the schedule I have set up and if it does, it never disconnects the data connection.
I had tried everything, changing the battery and ac resume from suspend time to every option, setting the auto disconnect after x time feature in advance config and whatever I did I could not get a reliable solution......
Until now.
Its a bit long winded but it works, I have been testing for the last couple of days.
What I have done is
1. Install SKSchema (You do need to buy this software but it is well worth it) http://www.s-k-tools.com/index.html?m_downloads.html#sc
2. Install rk-OSR (Thank you tytnguy) http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=54284&d=1192440286
3.Install Advance Config (Thank you schaps) http://www.touc...anced-configuration-tool-33-cab-install.html
4. In advance config, under power management, set battery resume and ac resume from standby to 90 seconds, save and soft reset.
5. In SKSchema, go to settings and turn watch mode on. Then go to tools, press watch and then new. Under 'watch for', select 'any connection', under 'any connection' select 'connected', under 'execute', select 'device' and 'screen on'. Under 'with parameters' where it says #p() in betwen the brackets put in the name of your internet connection that is used to get your email for example mine is contract internet so it looks like #p(contract internet). Press OK.
6. Still in SKSchema go to tools again, press watch then new. Under watch for, select 'any connection', under 'any connection' select 'disconnected', under 'execute' slect 'device' and 'screen off'. Under 'with parameters' do the same as above and put your internet connection in between the brackets. Press OK.
7.Open up rk-OSR. Under 'accounts' make sure outlook email accounts and the email accounts you want to check are selected then tick the enable box.
Under schedules, add the scheduled times you want.
Under 'outlook', tick auto close outlook
The wait time to sync is the time it takes to check your accounts so select a time you think it will take to carry out these tasks. I have mine set to 20 seconds, you may want longer if you are checking multiple accounts.
Under 'internet' I have mine set to default connection which uses 3G/GPRS but you can set it to use wifi if you are in a available network. It will turn the wifi on, sync and then turn it off. If you select the option to use wifi or default this will look for wifi and if it cant connect will use 3G/GPRS.
Make sure you tick the switch off GPRS/3G box. This turns teh data connection off after sync.
The connection wait time is set to 20 secs
Under 'options' sync only if device is sleeping means that if you are say using tomtom, it wont sync whilst its doing this. I have this un selected.
Silent sync means it wont wake up the device. I have this selected
Notify of unread emails does exactly that as does notify failure to connect. I dont have wither of these selected.
Sleep device after sync i have ticked.
Press save and then ok
8. In the device sounds and notification settings under new email message, make sure you dont have the show message on screen ticked other wise the application wont close properly if you get a message.
Thats it, you are done.
Basically the reason for the SKSchema part is that when my device ws locked and in standby, the email sync would happen but it would get stuck on the messaging app and not go back to the today screen. The scripts basically turns the screen on when it has connected to the internet and then off when it is disconnected allowing the app to close properly.
I know it is a bit long winded but it is the only thing i have found that works flawlessly.
I hope it helps someone else.
I just realised how long this post is so i am sorry.
Matt
thankyou very much for thisssssssss
yea I hate my data connection staying open, but this seems a little much. I wonder if someone could make a little app that basically does what all these do for the fix to work. or maybe MS should just fix it.
You could just use DiamondTweaks and enable "DisconnectAfter" it will disconnect your internet connection after the specified time of no activity.
Hmmm... the diamondtweak is in fact an Option but the Problem with this method is, that the Connection wont disconnect while in Standby, because (i think) the Tweak isnt active during sleep mode (just like any other app/method). You will recognize that when you establish a connection, go to sleep mode immediately and wake up the phone after lets say 20 minutes. The Connection-Bubble will tell you, that the data connection has been active during the whole sleep-time...
So still no solution here apart from the quiet complicated one in the first post, huh...? (Thanks anyway
rk-OSR works for me
i had the same problem when auto syncing my hotmail account. i downloaded every auto disconnect program i could find and it worked most of the time.
it was mainly when i auto synced hotmail that the data connection would just stay open. however when i auto synced my google mail account it would close, whether it was in sleep mode or not.
so after searching for more solutions i came across this thread. i didnt follow all the instructions. i just downloaded the rk-OSR program and set my schedule and other preferences.
now the syncing of both my accounrs happens automatically through this program and my data disconnects as it should.
Disable all data connections
I had a huge problem with a few applications auto starting a data connection in my pocket and never shutting off. I wouldn't have a problem with it if I pay for unlimited data(which I don't). My solution to this was going into the connections settings and change the "select which networks are automatically used" to "my ISP" which I never set one up. This way, anytime it tries to connect using data from the cell provider, it pops up an error message and yea, no pocket data transmitions. I guess you could set up a false "my ISP" if you have already set up one.
There is an option somewhere in WM6.5 to turn off data connection when in sleep mode, i enabled it, but now it does not turn the data back on to check email. I spent 3 hours searching through the options to disable this feature and put it back to the default but it appears to be gone or I can no longer find it. Does anyone know where this option is supposed to be hiding so I can confirm if it in fact disappeared?

I konw a fix called "GPRS-Tweak.cpl" can help you to disconnect the network when you shut down you app which must connnet the network.
I just have a chinese version, unzipped the attachment the copy into the window folder then, you will find it your startmenu>setting>system .
but is a chinese version ,if you want english version you'd better search on google.
sorry for my poor english
Found an easier way:
Settings > phone
then go to one of the last 'tabs' and the option to turn on/off GPRS etc when in standby is there...
Hello , I would like to pose a problem " atypical ".
I need to use an android phone only the date / time stamp, GPS, NFC reader , the GSM network (only to speed the search for the position ) , a wifi network (only for my one application installed on the device) .
Basically I need to remove almost everything from an Android phone (call , browse, update , install / use applications other than the default, access to wifi networks other than the one set , take pictures , watch videos / listen to music and so on) .
Let me clarify the operation expected : the user turns on the device and my application start; the device is switched to standby ; when require, user unlock the phone and obtain some information ( date / time, GPS position detected) ; put the phone to a NFC tag , it reads the data and saves informations in local ( automatic operations , without human intervention ) ; emission of a sound of completion operation ; standby until successive readings ; when returned home, phone identifies the wifi network and exchanges data with an enterprise server . Nothing more.
I ask , is it possible " clear " an android phone to not allow any function different to the above ?
(sorry for my english)

Are you making an app or are you making your own os that would do only the above things??
If you dont want call and all those functions you could go to the root of rom to /system/app and delete the apks like phone call storage sms related thing ( to remove call and sms) to delete browse delete the browser apk
and delete the certificate installer or package installer apks to remove installing function etc
HIT THANX IF I HELPED:laugh:
Yeah you can go to system root #with es file explorer root or system.root and then delete call and all other apps from System/app. And delete their data from system/data and then reboot. I think that icons will somehow show up(u can hide them) but the functions will stop working. Hope It helped
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Titanium Backup Pro allows you to freeze apps (disable them and they typical diaper from your drawer. It also allows you to back up and remove it.
I'd go this route as you just start delete stuff with out knowing whats going to happen then who knows, at least this way you can disable it first and see if your OS is stable.
very useful tip
for many but not for all!
your suggestion (test before remove) is valuable.
thanks to all.

Please help! My R7 plus F cannot access the internet again thru WiFi connection. This is not the first time ( I guess 3rd or 4th), but it now lasted for 4 straight days (and counting). I am very sure that our connection has no problem because I'm using it in my laptop, and I also already refreshed my router, my Oppo unit and even made a factory reset (which was advised by their customer service agent) but nothing worked. :crying::crying::crying:
I have not installed apps that would control my internet like HotSpot Shield or Antivirus. Hope someone could figure this out.
I don't want to bring it to the Service Center (it would take about a minimum of two weeks) aside from I don't have an extra phone. Thank you so much to all who would take time to help. God bless!:angel:

What exactly do you mean it cannot access Internet, are you saying that it cannot locate/scan WiFi connections or are you saying that you are unable to connect to available WiFi networks.
If it is the former, I was able to fix my problem by installing the latest OTA update/Color OS ROM. The latter I have yet to encounted
Oh..sorry for not giving clear details. My unit can do both, scan and connect to WiFi. But once it is connected to our network at home, the apps and browsers cannot access/use that connection. The browsers and playstore shows error, the Facebook app says "cannot connect right now" and the rest of the apps do tge same.
Though I haven't tried it again with other networks this time.
