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.

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
I have just taken delivery of my lovely new Exec so I apologise if this is a very basic question.
When you press the "e" internet shortcut button to the left of the space bar, internet explorer opens and goes to a specific address. Is there a way to edit that default address? I've changed the default home page and so if I select Home from the menu I do go to my preferred page. It's frustrating that that doesn't happen when I use the shortcut button.
Many thanks
David
search the registry for the site that you do go to (eg www.clubimate.com), change that entry for the site you want it to go to.
use resco registry or phm if you dont have it already.
I'm sure this has been asked before, but I've searched and I couldn't find an answer, so I'm hoping someone will indulge me by answering again :roll:
My device was supplied to me by my office as an MDA Vario, but I've unlocked it and I use it as my personal phone on orange. Whenever I load internet explorer it goes to a t-mobile favourites page (http://www.tmobile-favourites.co.uk) regardless of what I set the home page to in the options.
How do I change this?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Try changing in the registry setting at HLKM\software\microsoft\internet explorer\aboutURLs\home
see if that does it
No, that didn't help.
The home registry key was set to the page I'd set as my home page, but the device goes still goes to the tmobile favourites page when I start internet explorer.
Also, I searched the whole registry for the URL of the tmobile page, and I couldn't find any reference to it.
i have the same problem...i dont want t mobiles site to load
Try changing HKLM\Software\HTC\BrandedBrowser\home
That is the register key in my Vario.
On dutch T-Mobile Vario's IE starts with a customized local .htm file.
If you just change that file with a list of shortcuts that can be a solution as well.
BTW I like (the dutch) T-Mobile page pda.t-mobile.nl as a portal.
Hi I have an O2 XDA Exec running Windows Mobile 5 and I'm trying to connect to my work wifi
we don't use certificates but we do have a 42 character WPA key with mixed upper/lower alphanumerics and special characters, it's a pain to type even when you can see what you are typing
my laptop connects quite happily using this key
so starting from not having a network connection on the xda, I use the connection manager to stop the phone network and enable only the wifi
the xda then detects the locally available networks and lets me select my works one
I set it up for work access and then I'm presented with the wpa key input field
using the main keyboard I have to type in the key and every time I get to about the 32nd character the phone keypad pops up as if I'm making a call, if I dismiss this I'm back at a now empty wpa key input field, it looks to me like there's a buffer overflow error of some sort happening there
I cannot paste into this field using the main keyboard, however copying the text of the key from a file to the clipboard and using ctrl-v from the on screen keyboard seems to paste something into the field, however the xda still fails to connect and eventually turns the wifi off
going to the "Configure Network Authentication" dialogue I have deleted the works network and tried to manually add a new network with the same name, manually typing in the key which doesn't seem to throw the phone application up this time, then I tell it to connect and it tries for a few minutes and then disables the wifi again
is there any way I can add this key in directly say by importing a reg file or creating a certificate of some sort, at least that way I would know the key was typed correctly
Sorted it
I installed a copy of Hitchhiker which not only let me see the key that I was typing in but let me paste the one out of the file I was given, I could then connect, then I removed Hitchhiker and lo I could still connect

I have also been trying this without success. I currently have two versions of the SKY+ Java software, one which works with the touchscreen one which doesnt. the touchscreen one always times out during connection whereas the non touchscreen one says "The data connection has failed" whenever I press the login button. The app itself seems very compatible and appears to fill the WVGA screen very nicely, however we will need someone who knows a little more about how to "point the the java app in the right internet direction" (excuse my non technical description, this is where my technical ability runs out ) the java emulator itself does not help much as it contains no options to apply to the app
I have it working great. Just install the JBED Java version and then install it from inside that. It only logs in when you have the Vodafone proxy disabled though.
It's great to have a 50 channel EPG!!

could you please expand a little, how do you 'disable the vodafone proxy'? as far as I can tell that doesnt really make any sense! I really want to get this software working so any help you can give as to how you set yours up would be most appreciated, Thankyou
This worked for me:
Install Jbed attached above and use it to install the Sky.jar program.
On your Xperia go through:
settings
then select the connections tab
then the connections icon
followed by the advanced tab
Now chosse the select networks button and in the top drop down menu (the connection for programs which automatically connect to the net to use) and change it to "WEB" rather than "My ISP".
My ISP uses wap.vodafone.co.uk as an access point name via a proxy server.
WEB uses "internet" as an access point name without using a proxy server.
You do need to also do the following to get the service runiing:
1. Register for "my sky" at the sky website.
2. Add remote recording to the list of services runningon your my sky account
3. Activate remote recording on your sky box through its menu system
I've tested it out and I can access the 7day listing guide and send record instructions straight to the box (only takes 1-2mins).
Has anyone got this working on an o2 X1 - I don't have a "Web" option in my connections!

The WEB is a Vodafone name. I know o2 work on the same type of system (web and wap) so if you list what's available we should be able to take a guess at which one you should be using.
Hi artesea, thanks for your response. I have just tried again.... the o2 X1 has a choice of My ISP or Work Internet - so selected Work Internet and bingo it all loaded at connected at last
Tested it and within five seconds it updated my sky HD box!!!!
Thanks all!
Hi,
Sorry for the slight change in direction in the topic but it is relevent (hopefully you guys will agree)
whats the difference between "My ISP" and "work Internet" other than one points to the providers proxy server? Im with o2 and have the unlimited web bolt on - is this only unlimited web as long as i go through the "My ISP" connection?
If not, I dont actually see the point in going through the ISP's proxy at all?
Cheers,
Craig
Both Vodafone and o2 have two types of connections, can't remember the exact names so I'll call them INTERNET and WAP.
They were set up back in the day when the internet on your mobile was WML files and not much else.
WAP would allow you to access the internet on your phone, mainly to the companies own portal (Vodafone Live! etc).
INTERNET was to be used by a computer connected to the phone via Infrared or data cable. The networks have compressors at their end to decrease the size of the files to make it quicker and cheaper (you might notice images look crap). Connecting over WAP wouldn't work.
Since then phones have got very smart, and networks are getting behind.
For example you can't access Vodafone Live! whilst using INTERNET, but then you can't access a 3rd party app on WAP.
I can see that some apps are being allow over WAP (google maps), however I've found it a lot easier to have everything running over INTERNET.
Not 100% sure if o2 will allow you to use INTERNET in your bundle, but Vodafone do.
Can someone post the Sky Remote Record java app? Or at least post a link where they found it. I have it working on my X1 but the program size is so small it is hard to read.
How do you get around the issue of logging in using an O2 X1? I have the app installed and can enter username and password but can't select login. I saw a suggestion was to map the left and right keys to volume up and down (think it was for a differernt handset though) but when in the buttons settings there is no options to remap these keys to volume.
The left and right buttons are mapped to Login and Exit already.
My problem is the network not found problem. Like hell I'm installing another Java. I did that with my old Polaris and had nothing but problems afterwards.

But on my handset (and I know some other peoples) the login button (left softkey) does not function so you can't even login. It would appear that some people have a workaround for this, just wondering what that is.
after a bit of hair pulling i finally managed to get this to work at last.
I finally bit the bullet and de-vodafoned my device to the new R2A ROM (using SD card method - see other threads for more info).
I use AE Button Plus to remap the left and right soft keys to "hard" keys (select left key -> 3. Handle by AEBplus -> 1. single press -> 11. press left soft key. Same for right (soft)key). After hitting OK choose file then "save & exit"
This might help O2 users with the connection setup.

Help
I have reassigned the left and right key with AE Button Plus but still cannot login or exit via the keys?
Any help out there?
For me, the hard key to log in would only work when the keyboard is open. Odd, but gets around it and I can now at least remote record.
I have just assigned the buttons, so they always operate the softkeys, which is a bit annoying as I prefered one for rotate screen. Is there a way to only map the buttons within the Java app?
Thanks sebring
This appears to be the same for me.
Keyboard open and the reassigned keys work....really strange that.
Thanks again.
