Do you want to disable it permanently or just temporaly?
Permanently - Delete the GPRS settings from "Settings" > " Connections"
Temporaly - Hold 3 seconds of the "End Call" button.

about the temporarly part i tried that already but no changes
When you see the G symbol in a white square, GPRS is possible but not connected and therefore not consuming data. When you see a small G in a small white square, with two arrows beside it, GPRS is connected and can use little amounts of data to keep the connection alive. If you have a GPRS connection (little G, two arrows), press and hold the red button for 5 secs and the symbol will change to a large G in a white box. That means you have just dis-connected your GPRS connection. If you start MSN or IE, a connecton will be established and data will be sent, so it will cost you money. You will see the G symbol change then. So, if you see only a large G in white box, no worries, GPRS is disconnected. If you see small G with two arrows, press and hold red button till symbol changes to big G and connection is ended.
The permanent solution suggested above means that in the start-settings-connections-connections menu you empty one of the boxes in your accounts, e.g. the doamin name etc. In that way, your GPRS connection cannot make a connection because the right values are not there. Problem is: when you want to use GPRS, you will have to fill in the correct values again so you will have to know what to till in in what box. You can also delete the whole connection (e.g. T-Mobile GPRS or similar) to get rid of the account entirely.
You can also install this little freeware program, if you click on the GPRS symbol it gives you a disconnect button in the pop-up, making it possible to disconnect a connection (the symbol changes into a large G with white box).
Hope this helps.
Doesnt work on my Qtek 9100, no extra button after connect.
Sometimes ago I used SPB GPRS Monitor that have extra buttons to connect/disconnect.
be sure to soft reset after installing, worked on my Vario. Also, be sure to tick the appropriate boxes in the GB soft tweak CPl applet in start-settings-system.
Today another thread was posted that gave the reg edit for the disconnect button and connection timer, search for posts made today or yesterday. I'm sure you'll find the regedits in that post. it was in HLKM/Controlpanel/phone, make a Dword names Flags02 with hex value 10, if I'm correct. save and soft reset, button should be there. this gives you the button, but not the other GB options, which I find usefull as well.
OK... its a little easier than you all think.... go to settings / connections / create a new dummy dial out entry and set that to be default rather than Autopick....
It will never use GPRS again cos it cant dial out... you may get the odd message still though. Nowt you can do about that as thats down to the OS and software.

thanks very much for the app,works perfect 8)
thx guys it seems to be Ok now

Hi: i am currently on a push mail software using the gprs and am looking at a way/button to activate/deactivate the gprs easily.
The push mail software activates the gprs on it's own and this annoys me as it creates static to my desk phone/laptop as the shielding is low. I would like to have the ability to control the gprs to be turn on when i am away from my laptop or on the road. Thanks.
:wink:
Hello!
On my Qtek s100 I press the red hang upp button for a few seconds until the gprs is turned off. Maybe this will help...

Thanks, i am aware of this capability. It's just that i want something more manageable and not having to press the hang-up button all the time when the gprs automatically dials out.
:wink:

Re: GPRS management
when you are using the gprs, do you get load up on the check notification for the applications? and is there someway to clear this automatically. Thanks.

GBS Tweak
I am not sure I understand your question. Copy gbs-Tweak.cpl in your windows directory. Then you have a new icon in settings/system GB-SOFT Tweak. click once. You will have a GPRS stop option added to you gprs icon in the top bar...
hope this help
Cheers
Régis
Re: GBS Tweak
Have done that, no issue in the installation. It is possible to stop the gprs and only activate it when i want the push mail? The "disconnect" is more reactive, definitely a good to have to be able to stop the gprs instead of pressing the red stop button.
The 2nd question is, if you check your "check notification", it is choke with the push mail application being called, for example i am using the push mail "goodapp", you will see tons of "goodapp.exe" being called, thus slowing down the whole pda.
Hope this clears it. Thanks

Hi Folks,
Hoping someone can answer these?
On the connection manager window on the new imate rom I have a couple of icons which appear to do nothing. The first one is on the bottom left under the phone icon and looks like a pda with left & right arrows. It is greyed out and i'm wondering what it's for?
The second is the pushmail icon at the very bottom. This is also greyed out. Under settings the only options I have are bluetooth or wifi settings - is this normal?
Though not a user of pushmail, how do you set it up? When I add an email account i only get options for pop or imap. Is pushmail setup something i only get when i add a new server source?
Thanks
"looks like a pda with left & right arrows"
is data on or off, ie gprs is connected or not,
push mail you need to add a server source, an exchange server,
4smartphone.net has a 14 day trial you can mess with. just remember you dont need to do the sms address bit when setting up.

Thanks for the info. I figured that might be the case with pushmail.
Regarding the gprs icon - i can only use it to turn off gprs. If gprs is off the icon is greyed out. Any ideas? It's not a huge issue because i use gprs monitor to turn on/off gprs from the today screen anyway...
rather than try and connect, i just directly use the app and gprs will connect itself as and when its required.
intresting point about not being able to turn it on from that icon tho, the app isnt really that clear when it comes to whats just an icon and whats a button, the active sync icon is the same.

As do I generally... Interesting comment about the activesync icon. Makes you wonder why they call it connection manager if it manages but a few things...
Hello,
How do I turn GPRS OFF On an Xda Exec?
I have a successful WiFi connection set up to my Works Netork and I want to browse the internet via that. However, GPRS just will not GO AWAY & keeps on insisting that IT rather what I WANT is the route to the internet.
Hence I want it gone, nada, no more.
I can safely say that I will NEVER browse the net using GPRS or poxy WAP sites - excessively expensive crapola!
Thanks in advance,
Andy

and me! been searching but no luck yet!
not sure about 2005 but with 2003 i can just choose which connection i wanna use in connection->advanced
If you never going to use GPRS, just delete the settings:
Settings->Connections->Connections, under My ISP choose 'Manage existing connections', then long click on the GPRS setting (not sure what the name in your case will be, but it is probably the only one there) then choose delete.
You are now safe from GPRS charges.

there is not option to delete?
It is possible that on your phone the connection is set up under 'My work network', try checking there. Somewhere there should be a connection with your GPRS settings and you should be able to delete it.
i must be going blind, there is no option to delete, just edit or add
You are not going blind.
On the dialog it self there are two buttons 'Edit' and 'New'.
But if you tap and hold the connection it self (see little circles) you get a pop-up menu saying 'Delete' and 'Connect'.
It works on my Jamin, and it should work for you.

aaahhh now youre talking! ok i'll give that a go ta
oh bugger, ok thats worked BUT i thinki deleted my phone settings as now it cant find the network for calls, pratt, anyone got the setting so i can ut them back in, i dint reallt want to reset it after i got everything else working!
got it working now! ta
Same problem here, however I would like to use GPRS occasionally, so do not really want to delete the setting.
Example whilst at home, I want to use wi-fi, on the road GPRS.
Is there any tools that can turn GPRS on and off ?
Just press the E or G icon on the top bar and you should have the option to disconnect. That is, if you've enabled GPRS Disconnect in your registry. Works like a charm. Whenever I want to connect via WiFi, I just disconnect GPRS and fire up WiFi...
If my memory serves me right, when I had my Blue Angel and wanted to manually connect to GPRS, I could click in the "G" icon in my title bar and I would get the option to connect to the GPRS setting that I had set up.
Now I have a T-Mobile Vario and WM5 - standard build etc..., but when I click that "G" I get the same message bubble titles "connectivity" , but with a message saying "To connect to either the internet or work, set up a new connection in Settings". Using the "connect" button in the SPB GPRS Monitor icon (on the title bar) connects with no worries.
I have tries adding a new connection in - now I have 2 that work perfectly when usign SPB, but not with the "G" icon.
Clicking the "G" icon must read the registry somewhere and look for the current GPRS settings, but I must be missing them.....hmmmm
HKLM/Comm/ConnMgr/Destinations/Providers........ all seems ok, but the "ConnectionGUID" specified in my connections is not found anywhere else in the registry!
Can anyone help?
thanks
Charlie Grillo
I am also facing the same problem .. Cannot get the option to connect appear as in my previous Blue Angel ..
This creates problem for updating my RSS channels using SPB Insight which needs to have some connection in Connectivity bubble ..
Anyone found the solution?
This seems a dumb question, but cant find the answer...
I go on the internet for a few mins, cose down the internet, then (discovered this by accident) if i cick on the top task bar (notification) it says i am connected to orange internet for xx time (and increasing) why doesnt the internet connection stop when i shut down the application....????
thanks
Once your device connects to GPRS/3G, it stays connected, that's normal. If you want to disconnect manually just go to the settings tab in TouchFlo, go to Communications and toggle the 'Data Connection' slider to 'Off'.
