GPRS always auto disconnects after some time

I found a lot of posts where people ask for auto disconnect. My problem is the other way round: When I connect with GPRS after some 5 minutes or so my QTEK S200 disconnects by itself. This might be caused by the cab file MP_autoDisconnect_EnableDRM_prophetUA(AKU2.0)_060112.cab which I found in enhanced ROM?
I don't want to hard reset to see the effect this cab not beeing installed. Any ideas to help???

I have the same problem... lets see if anyone knows how to enable GPRS for longer then only 6 minutes.

I have the same problem... lets see if anyone knows how to enable GPRS for longer then only 6 minutes.

it's because of your mobile operator. i've the same sh.t here. it keeps disconnecting after 5-10 minutes and the traffic rounds up. and i have to pay more... i've a hima, my friend's SE W800 - same crap, keeps disconnecting. i'm sick of GSM networks, they're getting old and do not meet modern speed and reliability requirements. so i'm afraid we'll just have to wait until WiMAX or something else comes to replace an old man. cheers

You might wanna try this from wiki here:
If you want your GPRS (or EDGE) connection to always be on, set the following:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\|gprs connection name|\AlwaysOn = 1 (DWORD decimal)
And to turn it off:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\|gprs connection name|\AlwaysOn = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Note that |gprs connection name| will depend on the name you've given your GPRS connection
I'm on tmobile web n walk, so its a pain to wait for gprs to reconnect everytime.... I've just started using this for about a day, but looks ok so far... try it... see if its the magic ur looking for

I don't think it's connected to the provider as I know enough people using the same provider where GPRS stays connected a long time. The only difference we have is the PPC. I will try jamichy's solution later this week when I will be back home. In the meantime Craic Dub - does it solve the problem on your side?

O.k. I couldn't wait and tested today. Now the connection seems to stay as long as you do not stop it.
But: It connects automatically to GPRS when you connect the phone to your provider. That's not really what I wanted. In other countries this will create extreme roaming costs.
Any other idea on how to stop this auto connect? Even using phonealarm's "do not start GPRS automatically" does not help, again it starts connecting when you dial in your Phone PIN.

Seems the Reg Hack is not a brilliant idea... I have setup my device to power off display after 2min... when i press power button to come out of standby, it freezes the device for abt 40 to 50 sec
Its worse when i get an incoming call, the screen is on but does not respond to touch or pressing green button...
So i changed registry back... and bingo, everythings ok again....
But now, i've found another way, a little freeware app that does all I want and more, and you get the option to choose connect gprs on boot or connect when needed... etc... take a look at:

Sounds interesting. Still difficult for me to understand what it really does:
- What means "search GPRS [G] on start radio"
- What means "start [G] on start GPRS
- What means "Switch GRPS always On/Off hold till for following connection"
Can you tell me what it does non your side? Im a startting to hesitate trying to many things. I am still not convinced of WM5 - I installed GPS pgrs monitor (on QTEK CD...) which did not work together with phone alarm. And to deinstall was the ususal WM5 hassle, only using sktools and manual deletion of a file after another soft reser I was able to remove it again

Search GPRS ON start radio=gprs connects on startup
Start G on start GPRS=gprs connects when an application needs web connection, and stays connected
Switch GRPS always On/Off hold till for following connection=default settings, connect when needed, then disconnect
Havent had the phone freeze problem, and gprs connects on startup, and stays connected... which is fine for my tariff, tmobile web n walk unlimited gprs

Seems to work flawlessly so far on my S200. Thanks for your help Jamichy!!
The only thing I'am still missing is EDGE in Germany... :wink:

GPRS switchin problems

I am having quite a small, but annoying problem with my S100.
I need to use 2 GPRS connections. One for my vodafone Push mail, and one for normal webbrowsing. I need to switch these 2 connections everytime.
That's not a real big problem, but point is, i cannot switch back. It cannot connect for an unknown reason ...
Totally shutting it down by entering Flightmode, does the trick. But entering and leaving flightmode is quite a hassle.
I do not believe it is an provider-issue, but an issue on my S100.
Are there programs that can turn off gprs just like flightmode, (but keep radio alive), and switch to another connection, and vice-versa? Or, solutions in registry or something?
I have a feeling the other connection is somewhat 'alive' so the new one won't work.

Did you tried with this?
Add a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the "GPRS Balloon Tip"
To add a Disconnect button and a timer display showing how long GRPS is in use for the session:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 16 (DWORD decimal)

WiFi in standby.

Now it seems the WiFi turns off when the phone enters standby on my AT&T Tilt with HTC Rom.
Is there anyway to make WiFi be on if I am connected to a network. Its annoying because if I'm on Windows Live Messenger and chatting and then leave it 2 minutes or so it goes into standby. If I turn the device back on I have to reconnect and seem to loose messages.

I want that aswell..... its really annoying always waiting for it to connect.....

Keep Wifi (Bluetooth, GPRS and ActiveSync) connected while phone is in standby.
I've had problems with my wizard finding my wifi network when I come out of standby and I use programs like RemoteAmp and would like to have a constant connection to my network so that when I come out of standby I dont have to wait to reconnect.
Warning!!!
This will also keep Bluetooth, GPRS and ActiveSync connected! You can always manually disconnect.
This will probably work on any WM5 device, but was tested on a WIZ100 running my edited 2.25.11.1 rom.
Using your favorite registry editor (Resco Registry) navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
If you need to search for networks you won't be able to do so by putting the device in standby (quick press of the power button off and back on), instead turn the wifi on and off.
Power state 1 is a low power state, if you find it's not working that well try changing the value to 0. Power state 0 is a full power state.
Yes, your battery will drain faster. I'll report back on how much faster later.
Special thanks to Summiter and Faria for all their hard work, and to buzz_lightyear (buzzdev.net) for pointing me in the right direction!

There is also a tool called PocketToolman.
this tool does more than only enabling Wifi in standby mode.
I'm using it with satisfaction.

Keep alive Wifi in standby on i780

Guys,
I'm new on WM6 Professional and i780. I'm not able to keep wifi enabled when in standby mode. I've read a lot of thread but suggested tips does not work on i780.
ie
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
On i780 the equipment freezes when turn on standby - I've to remove the battery to resume it.
It seems that this specific registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
causes the hang. If I remove the registry the phone does not hang, but it turns off the wifi in standby.
I'm quite hungry; with my previouse I600 (WM6 Std.) this feature ran correctly.
Any ideas?

Karen,
after a lot of time I've solved upgrading to the official PDXIB1 - you can download from official Samsung site.
I'm using Communication Manager Pro to switch on Wifi at seleceted locations and select the option to keep the state in suspend mode, too.
bye

Use AdvancedCon for that

what version of communication manager pro did you use?
i get "windows refuses to open commmgr.exe applet(2)" when i try access wifi setup

i have a i780 and i want to keep wifi alive while in standby mode.
i have tried all the programs like CommMgr pro, advanced configuration, pocket toolman. i even tried diamond tweak and HD tweak. those programs all worked and kept wifi alive, BUT no data can be transferred to or from the phone.
i can ping my ip address from the phone, BUT no other ip address. the wifi is kept alive but something is stopping the data.
if i turn wifi off and then turn back on again, it works propperly, but as soon as it goes in standby no data can get in or out.
it seems it keeps wifi alive, but not all of things needed to fully work.
ive tried different ROMS, ive upgraded to the latest DXIB1. and i even tried a WM6.5 ROM and they all have the same problem.
anyone got any ideas?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=483149

if i use dont sleep, i will need an app to turn screen off after an amount of time too, because if i turn screen off with a program, when i get a sms or phone call it turns screen on and doesnt turn off again and battery drains really quick.

if anyone has been able to keep wifi alive in standby mode on a samsung i780 can you please specify the:
phone version
pda version
wifi s/w version
and what software used to keep wifi alive and/or registry settings changed.
and maybe the original phone and pda version. i dont know if this makes a difference. mine came with i780PCEHI2, ive changed different versions and different roms, i still have an IP address and can ping myself, and the phone thinks its on the wifi network. but it still doesnt allow in comming or out going wifi data.
anyone with a i780 and might not use wifi that much, would you be able to kindly test it, thanks.

Definetely working methode I have found by experiments to keep wifi on on i780:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\SWLD24SP]
add "IClass"="{A32942B7-920C-486b-B0E6-92A702A99B35}"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\SWLD24SP1\Parms]
"SetHostWake"=dword:1
"wakecondition"=dword:0 (0,1,2,3,4 all working differ ways)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}]
"Default"=dword:0
Now after SR, wifi keeps connected in standby.

Turn off 3g/data in X amount of minutes when not in use?

Hi there,
Does anyone know if it is possible to have the phone turn off the data/3g portion when not used in X amount of minutes? I know for WIFI it is possible but not sure if data/3g is possible?
Also, it seems when i have wifi and data on, the phone would use 3g over the wifi in OPERA or even updating weather in SPB mobile shell. Is this normal? Anyway to make it so WIFI is first priority over 3G?
Thanks

not normal, the phone should use the wifi first then the 3G.
ps. would be cool if an app or registry hack could switch off 3G when not in use.

I get the same issue with the WiFi not being prefered with SPB weather and also a hotmail email account. I was going to play with "NoData" but would be interested if theres a better solution

Couldn't find a better solution, I made sure to turn of HSDPA in the phone settings, change my network to GSM, then use "NoData" because I don't have a data plan. So far no extra charges.

Try the
GB-SOFT GPRS Tweak (EDGE+UMTS+3G) for WM6.1 - HTC Diamond
found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407264
I installed it on my Xperia and it worked.

try bandswitch.....

Does turning off/on the data/3g part harm the hardware in any way?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\
•
SuspendResume = GPRS_bye_if_device_off
•
CacheTime = xxx (where xxx are seconds before auto disconnect, the best value is 60)

after editing registry with this values it should hang up the connection after an specific amount of time without data transferred

Advance config in more setting connection you have the option
