Hi all, please help.
I've got a HTC HD2 that wont stop connecting to 3g. I've tried setting it to 'my work network, but it still keeps connecting. Also tried new modem connection to 'offline', it says that already exists, but I can't select it.
It doesn't cost much, but each time it's a few 'p', once added up it can amount to £1 a day easily.
Is there another way to stop it?
Any thoughts?
Hi there,
I assume your still using winmo 6.5 by the sounds of it
Two simple ways i would recommend, download a free app found in XDA (advanced config (v3.3 i think)) as there is a setting to turn off data there.
or
More simply, go into your apn settings and remove/change the apn name; so for mine i would change "internet" and just remove the t of it.
Can use data if the settings are wrong so it never connects
Cheers.
Yes, am using wm 6.5. Thanks for the quick reply.
Where are the 'apn' settings?
I'm not very savvy when it comes to changing things.

htc fuze - alreadi connected to 3G network but wont navigate
Hello everybody,
Ive just received my HTC Fuze, i was kind exited. Just taked it out from the box to try the 3G browsing. I introduced the access points and the l/p settings for connection. It does connect to the 3G network witouth problem, but i receive no data, can't display any page/information. I don't know if the Fuze is faulted or something. Any idea???? thanks in advance.
PD: weather update works, and it connects to the 3G network. but dont work in Opera/IE
there is nothing to configure with the fuze if you are on the AT&T network. all you do is put in your sim card.
I had a few issues myself. If you were using isp.cingular then it might not connect there any more unless you purchase the tethering plan. Even then, isp.cingular will only work for direct push and tethering.

Try this
Start>>>>Setting's>>>>Connections>>>>Connections>>>>set up my proxy server>>>un-check "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
i wound a useful thread, where you can disable some sort of hidden proxy.cab thing installed on device (programs>proxy tools), now IE works but still no luck with Opera, im looking forward to upgrade this factory AT&T Rom because i don't feel my Fuze very smoothly
PD: also check on what you suggested, but it was already unchecked.
Thanks for helping mate

im into another network, i bought my fuze unlocked in eBay, i tried the .cab app to uninstall hidden proxy (programs>tools>proxy) and now i can browse using IE, but not into Opera.
Im looking forward to change the factory ROM because it doesn't feel too smoothly.
Any suggested ROM/Radio to install, i really don't want cooked roms with extra apps/games
thanks in advance for the help mate

If I remember right, the default Opera browser on the Fuze is set up to only work with the proxy, so you'll have to flash a new rom most likely (but you really should do that anyway.)
Why did you start two threads? Did you not read the rules?

i know, my bad, because i was getting errors from server, but when i find out there was 2 topics i tried to del my post, but i couldn't do it, didn't find the option, i apologize.
To help out, I merged the two threads into this one.
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?
Hello everyone,
Forgive me if this has already been asked, but after searching and searching thoroughly I was unable to find a solution.
I have the T Mobile HTC HD2, the phone is better than any iPhone I ever owned. (Just had to get that out... )
I have a question concerning the HTC CM Wifi Internet Sharing. I installed the app, ran it without any issues. The signal was picked up by one of my laptops. I was able to connect and surf the web over 3G, pretty quick I must say...
The issue I am having is, since connecting that one time, I have not been able to see the phone as a router since. When I run the app and choose T-Mobile data, the 3G pops up. The wireless antenna icon pops up and the app says it is ready to receive incoming connections. BUT, I am unable to see this from any of my wireless devices.
My questions are, is there any specific procedure to get this to run correct? Do I have to disable wireless on the HD2? Is there some WinMo 6.5 firewall running? I know others have experienced this, but I am unable to track down a solution.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Are you running the app through Settings-All Settings-Connections-Wifi Internet Sharing? Or running the WifiRouter app?

I am running the app through Settings-All Settings-Connections-Wifi Internet Sharing
After i installed the cab, this is the only place I could find a way to launch the app.
Why is there another way?
I downloaded a random wifi sharing app and had the same problem, then found XDA-Tom_Codom CM Wifi Internet Sharing VGA. Worked like a charm. I would uninstall and try that one.
SxyCupcake, thanks for the suggestion.
I uninstalled, then installed the XDA-Tom_Codon CM Wifi Internet Sharing VGA.cab you suggested. I get the same result. I am rebooting right now to see if that may help...
After rebooting, I get the same thing. It almost seems like something is blocking the WiFi Transmit antenna signal or maybe it is not activating correctly... Might be a registry setting or something.
I may have fudged up some setting using BsB Tweaks or XT Hack Beta2... I might wind up just doing a complete restore and start from scratch.
Still doesn't work. I will check back often and post a solution if I figure it out.
Thank you,

Q: My PC or Laptop is not seeing the SSID.
A: For the people having trouble seeing the network, make sure your pc displays adhoc connections and not just access points.
Now it is working...
Moved as not software release.
Ever since I got my ATT Fuze, I've been getting a pop-up warning box:
Warning
There is a problem
connecting to the GPRS
service in your registered
home network
I started out on the stock ATT ROM, and in the hopes that it would fix the problem I flashed a 6.5 ROM by TAEL which works perfectly but still has the same problem (though the pop-up is much nicer looking now on 6.5!)
Is this a setting? I've searched the forums and "advanced config" for a setting and can't find anything. thanks in advance!
anyone?
The ROM i'm using now is TAEL v.4 from april 10th. Has anyone ever seen this message, or does anyone know if there are settings for GPRS?
last try
anyone ever see this message? Have I discovered the one error that opens up a world of possibilities with this phone? does this unlock the grappling hook? maybe if i ask how to install cab files i'll get a response...
since that didn't get any responses...
Ok, how about this: can I dispose of the battery in a fire?
well, that was useless.
screw this, I'm buying an iphone.
Are you sure,you are using some data plan by your provider? If not,use "nodata" software do disable GPRS connection. You are using some software in background,that tries to connect to the internet(RSS reader,scheduled Weather,Email etc.). Are your GPRS settings correctly set?
wow, I had already given up on this...
Thanks for the reply! I'm not using any data plan (just wifi). I've turned off weather and the only software I've added to the TAEL ROM is Garmin XT. I searched but I couldn't find the "no data" software; and I can't find the GPRS settings in the phone (if there are any)... thanks again!
If you are not using any dataplan,just forget about settings. It seems,that you have some app running on background,that forces the device to connect to the internet(some schedule). Ensure,you haven't scheduled email receiving,RSS,weather etc.automaticaly.

Hello everyone, I own a Samsung omnia 7 and I have a problem with apn.
my carrier (vodafone IT) has two different apns, one that I must use with my data plan and the other that gets me to pay if I connect to it. The phone, currently on mango beta but the problem has always been there, ignores the apn setting i put in manually and uses the wrong one, set probably by the "network profile " app by Samsung. even if i uninstall the app it still connects using the wrong one, and i already tried restoring the phone to factory settings.
is there a way to force the apn used (obviously there is as the phone IS forced on one apn) and how can I do it? registry modifications,XML files... anything
thank you

I would like to find out too. Currently WP7 really lacks in this department. It screws up the settings and drains the battery even faster because it tries to connect with the wrong config.
After fiddling with it the Samsung App, own APN settings etc I manage to go online on Vodafone but my phone struggles to send MMS.
Samsung Tool isn't of much help since it thinks that my SIM card is something that it is not.
I hope this APN issue is addressed in Mango. But I guess such "bugs" are not important to MS.
