My TP is driving me crazy... it starts automatically data connection and keeps it on for hours, but activesync, wheater, and myphone are set to "manual".
How could i know what application causes data connection to start?
Thanks
have not tried this .... but perhaps a software firewall such as this (freeware)

use advanced config and go to the more options and go to data, you may have it set to always on. i hit that accidentally one time and didnt notice
if you are using touchflo (sense) it might be checking the weather automatically.
thanks for the info

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.
Hello guys, I have one problem with my HTC Touch Cruise, Italian Official Rom.
Sometimes, with no pogram in task manager, internet connections starts itself, and if I push on disconnect, after 1-2 seconds it starts again, and the only way to stop this is a soft reset; can someone help me please? As I told, there is no program in the task manager when it happens, so I can give me no answer about it. Thank you all!
Why is it a problem? (You can set an Auto Disconnect option...)
Check Windows update, RSS Hub, email accounts, HTC Home - Weather panel,... and any net related apps if they refresh automatically...

1) Could you tell me how to set auto disconnection? Thank you so much (it's a problem because I pay it)
2) I'll check every program, thank you again!
Best thing is to check all the apps suggested. things like auto synchronizing email, or auto updating weather, can all cause the data connection to start.
Then you can use a tool like Schap's Advanced Config (search for it) to auto disconnect data connections. It's a pretty good tool overall for configuring other things in the system so always handy to keep around on your device.

Thank you guys for your help, tomorrow I'll install that tool and then will let you know about it!
I have Windows Live Mobile installed so after a soft reset, the program automatically attempts to make a data connection. However, the data connection tab in the comm manager is set to off by default, so a connection can't be established.
Is there any way on the AT&T Fuze to set the data connection on by default?
Thanks....and yes I searched "data connection default" but didn't see anything related to this problem.
Advanced_Configuration_Tool_v3.3 or Diamond Tweak 0.5.3 have an option to have data always ON. However, this will kill your battery in no time
thanks for your help. i have those programs, but i'll look them over again.
EDIT: i looked at both and don't see an option to always have a data connection enabled. under data, you can obviously enable various connections and i already have those set. but i don't see the option to always have the connection on.
DiamondTweak > 6 Data > 6.2 Always On: MEdia Net

Funny how I'm trying to do the opposite. For some reason my data turns on by itself. I turn it off and a few minutes later it turns itself on again. It's really a battery drainer.
If anybody knows how to change it so it will default to off, please post. Thanx.

Certain apps/functions will need data access depending on their polling settings. Email and weather, for example. I disabled the auto updates for those and am hoping to see the data connection stay OFF when I set it.
Hope this does the trick.
I had to configure a bogus network so the device wouldn't get anywhere even if it tried... because it would seemingly reactivate at will.
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...
well my internet was working fine on my vox. One time i was searching something in google and bam my internet has gone.. Now everytime i want to go to internet it gives me a message:
The remote party has ended this connection
... any ideas? :/ im trying gprs not wifi. Thanks
Tom.
Check to make sure that your GPRS info isn't corrupted in the settings menu (Settings > Connections > GPRS). Also, are you using a proxy? If so, check out the settings there, too. I've had that happen to me before and I just cleared out the settings, re-entered them, and was back in business. I would strongly suggest first that you copy your settings on paper before changing stuff around...
