I recently ended my data connection on my HTC Fuze and I was wondering if there was something I could do or something that I could download so that it automatically tries to connect to the Wi-Fi instead of the 3G network?
u can go into ur connection manager and turn 3g and data off. while at it, enable wifi....

Well I know that... But you know how when you click on the weather tab without turning on the 3G or Wi-Fi, it automatically tries to connect to the 3G. How do I get it so that it does the same but with the Wi-Fi?
I've just been charged £400 by Orange for exceeding my Data limit of 1GB , watching You tube video's but whilst connected to WiFi.
I did a few tests using www.showip.net and found that when you connect to WiFi your connection is still rooted through your data connection, so your download limit is being sucked away when you are thinking your safe as your connected to your WiFi connection.
You actually have to manually disconnect your data connection, then connect to WiFi, your data connection doesn't automatically disable itself when you connect to WiFi.
This seems like a major bug to me and I can't see this documented by HTC or Windows Mobile
Is this a know "issue" and is there a fix?
Regards
You do not need to pay them anything,just go to your local citizens advise bureau or trading standards..
In order to prevent using 'data' connection you have to disable it with a third party app ,such as data disconnect,even then you have to manually disable it in the connections centre,if you disable it in the connections centre and do not use an app such as 'data disconnect' it will still connect..
Therefore it is a fault with the device..
Sorry to bump an old thread, but I just discovered this issue. Which app will automatically disable 3G when I'm connected to WiFi? I always thought if you were connected to wifi your data would not get used? Guess I was wrong :S

Install Android Data n wifi works like a charm...
In windows, i've seen Wifi-on-demand once installed,starts the data automatically when wifi is lost,but data stays on even when wifi is reconnected.I guess there is no solution for this yet....

CHTS switches Gprs off, if Wifi is connected. Also you can disable gprs Data totally.
At best you make a home profile, which disable gprs totally and only if you really want to use gprs, you switch to another profile, which allows it.
I am not able to browse on wifi network. Wifi toggles to on position, can scan the network but not connecting
My phone is running on stock Indian ROM 1.52.720.3 with S-off and rest everything stock, "NOT ROOTED"
Till 2 days back it was working fine and i could use the wifi network
Now most of the time it does not connect to the wifi network, it keeps scanning, detects the network, attempts to connect and finally says disconnected.
Sometimes it connects, i can see the assigned IP but not able to browse the internet or use the android market.
However internet pass through option is working when plugged in USB
I am able to connect my laptop to the wifi network and use the internet, so my network is fine.
I spoke to the customer care, they told me to do a factory reset from Bootloader option...I did the factory reset but still wifi not working
Any help please

I haven't had that issue with the stock ROM, and but it has come up with some modified ROMs. The solution has been to scan for the network, and attempt to connect and then disconnect & forget the network. Rescan and connect worked perfectly after that.
Worth a shot.
Hi all!
Here's the problem:
Phone is always trying to connect to and old wifi network I have created with my router (TP-Link Archer C7). This network is cancelled but my nexus 5 will try to connect with an exclamation mark. I have to manualy click in the setting to connect to the newer Wifi.
I have done a factory reset. No luck. I also switch to Rastapop, CM, Catalysm, no luck too. The old network is like saved in the google account but I can't remove it...
Have you experience this too?
Thx for your help.
Hi,
I suggest that before the update worked perfectly.
After updating the wifi tethering does not work anymore.
In practice, the other device connects but does not navigate.
I noticed that with tethering connected and connected device if I disconnect the data and reconnect them, the connected device navigates but no longer surf the phone.
To be able to surf the phone I have to disable the router and disconnect and reconnect the data.
It's as if either surfing one or the other.
I have already reset my factory data.
My sim has no tethering block.
I've already tried to change APN (default - default,dun - default,supl,dun).
The same problem also in safe mode.
Can someone help me?
Thanks
Nobody? :crying:
