I have read a few posts on here regarding this problem and i have pinned the problem down to any third pary application that automatically connects to the internet.
I have uninstalled all software and as soon as i install a newsreader or weather program that is set to auto update my device will not switch on after a while if it is charging.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this as its bloody annoying

Hello,
I do have here a problem on WM6. Every time to time my device connects to the internet (GPRS) and stays connected.
I have installed the nodata application, ans disabled the GPRS connection. It works ok, but the device becomes very slow to respond the commands after a while. Some application is trying to connect to the net. Connmgr.exe process is getting almost 100% cpu usage.
I have disabled every automatic update, activesync and son on but the problem remains.
How can I find which app is trying to connect?
Regards
Cabiri
my 2 cents
connect via your activesync/device manager, and get online via your desktop internet connection. now with netstat -b or any packet capture tool, try to find out where it is connecting. you will get an idea about the prog from remote address. like if it connects to msn.com, it'll be live messenger.. something like this.
you can also use a advanced task manager on the phone to check which applications are running in the background.
hope that helps
Thans, I will try both soluctions.

same problem here. this is happening to me just last few weeks. i can't remember if i was messing with some options in any program, but even if i did i was just turning off automatic connections since i don't like them. i also tried to uninstall my latest software, but that didn't help.it is possible that it is some kind of malware, but kaspersky antivirus did not find any problems. i hope that someone will find solution for this becouse it is very annoying.
p.s.
if this causes significant data transfer you can go to Settings/Connections/Connections -> Advanced tab -> Select Networks, and change settings to "My Work Network"
if you have a weather update, this maybe the one triggering your mobile to connect to the Internet. just turn the Automatic Update off
no, it's not any weather plugin since i removed them long time ago. and when i used them automatic update was turned off. however, if weather plugin try to auto update and if it fails, then you get an error message. this one looks just like it continuosly try to connect and it uses almost all CPU until it gets connected. whatever this application is it looks hostile and i don't like it. the war is on!
thanks for help anyway
Hi,
I even disabled the HTC today plugin... and it remains doing the same.
Until now I had no chance to track the traffic, I will try on the next days.
finally i found the solution for my problem. seems like windows live messenger is causing all my problems. i found that phone is trying to connect to internet only after using wlm. usually after i'm finished using wlm i just terminate the program. and this is the problem. i should first sign out, and then terminate wlm. after this everything works just fine. so be sure to sign out before terminating wlm. i'm sure that this is the problem because i've tested my theory few times and i guess that this is it.
i hope this helps to you. if it does please report here
Yeah I have the same issue, i believe it's been on several version of Windows live messenger, actually, it's even on the version I have of WM6.1 (I have an Elfin with the blue elves rom from xda which has wm6.1)
it's quite sad that msft hasn't fixed this yet, it henders the phone completely useless and seems like it should be something easy to fix, stupid WLM should just not retry so brutely
anyways, actually if you change WLM to "manual" instead of "as items arrive" that does the trick too, but then now your push mail is gone ;( lame!
Hi - I cant seem to get this to work correctly.
I have 2 email accounts set up to connect to and get new emails from every hour.
I have advanced config set up to disconnect my data connection after 1 min. But still it is very random weather it works or not. Sometimes yes most times no (still connected 2 hours later).
I have tried running HD tweak with the same settings but no luck. I have tried HDtweak on its own and both together.
I have also tried changing the time to 2mins or 5 mins.
Does anyone else have this problem? It just does not seem very reliable at all.
Any help would be amazing.
Thanks
anyone any ideas?
Still looking for some help on this one if anyone would be kind enough??
Well, I'm not aware of additional apps that resolves this automatically but the fastest way manually to disconnect is to use the Long End Press Button to disconnect.
Just a thought for the meantime....
Thanks but that is not really practical every 30 mins or so when your phone receives new emails. I cannot believe this amazing phone has such a strange short fall. For people with data shortages on their tarrifs this must be a nightmare?
I suggest to disable data connections in sleep mode. This can be fond under phone->settings->data
If data tab is not available, you can enable it using a cab called "Dutty enable data tab" or something similar (search the forums).
This cab works only for certain ROMs. I am using XNOR and it works perfectly.
Please note that your activesync will continue synchronising as programmed. and automatically disconnecting after.

Thanks for the reply. I have tried searching for this .cab but cannot find it, does anyone have a link to it? I am also using XNOR so it should be a great fix. Thanks

Not to worry, I have found it. Thanks for all the help/suggestions.

I guess you already noticed the battery life improvement.... don't you?
I have this same problem with no fix yet. With the cab that disallows data in sleep mode, wouldn't your auto email check not work or am I not understanding what that cab does?
Thanks,
Ho'okani
Wow, with that cab the battery life really is longer!!! thnx!
Solution found, thread closed
After installing camera fix and tweak for 3g/auto from tweaks tread I cant figure it out what is wrong.

Internet Browser not responding when connected to mobile network
Sometimes when I open the Internet browser the phone does not load any pages when connected to the Internet over the mobile network. As soon as I connect it to my WiFi, the problem is gone and I can open pages again over the mobile network and WiFi...

That's mean its operator's problem
The Desk Clock was supposed to stay on, but instead the screen blocks and there's no Desk Clock after the screen's time out.
Torch app
It could be nice if they add a Torch app in the next update. Such a shame that the LED is only used for pictures
Gmail Signature
When adding a signature in Gmail the editing box does not expand making it difficult to create a automatic signature

Yea, it would be nice that the Desk Clock stays on. I agree with you. This one is absolutely useless. Shame for such a nice clock.
connection problem on legend
I'm encountering trouble with the connectivity of my legend.
Users from france and belgium are reporting cases when all the connection layer seems ok (connection icon is blinking and all connections seem ok) but in fact no network.
We have to reboot the phone or go to flight mode and come back online to retreive network again.
It seems to impact all kind of connections (I have the problem with WIFI and 3G connection and have no problem with other phones in the same area).
it's quite annoying because for some messaging application you have to go back in the appliaction to see that you're not longer connected.
My biggest issue to date is the the Sync All feature does not actually seem to Sync the weather widget at all. & even if I go into Settings > Accounts & Sync > Sync All - it still does not sync the weather widget. I have to open the Weather App manually to sync. Anyone else having this problem.
Also, how do I reset my default Current Location. It has set mine to my country (Ireland) rather than to my City.

I'm encountering problems (not always) when leaving the home or office WiFi area. The phone doesn't connect to the 3G or GPRS mobile network. Putting it to flight mode or rebooting the Legend solves the problem but it is extremely annoying because you need to double check connectivity issues all the time.

I have exactly the same problem =(
Anyone has a solution?
This is not a huge problem, just a small annoyance to me. In the contacts you have linked with facebook you can choose to have their facebook profile picture as the contact picture or you can choose to use a picture on the phone, but whenever I choose that the contact should have a picture from the phone it just has that picture for a short period and then it reverts back to the picture from facebook.
Anyone know of a solution to this except unlinking the facebook profile?
1. Im really desperate for something to get my led on the back to burn.
You cant even film with the light on.
2. My alarm and timer dont ring with the screen off, havent found a fix yet. I'll have to get an egg timer app
[edit] I actually found out today that I have a special legend phone, and that this alarm/timer bug is only my problem. No one else has this?
About the wifi problem, my downloads get stuck..
But the easiest way to temporarily fix it is to turn your wifi on and off.
Ive put the Power Control widget [android] on the 2nd screen on which u can turn all power sucking functions on and off with the push of a button.

Maybe just for me, but does not work GoogleEarth.

Vabration and ringing problem
I've just realised that the ringing and the vibration disappears after some time, even if I leave the phone just to vibrate it doesn't, but if I reboot the phone it goes back to normal.
I've missed a lot of phone calls just because of this.
Does anyone have this problem?
Thanks
Another bug, "people widget" all contacts disappear from widget after rebooting. Some of the photos (facebook ones) in people widget keep disappearing.
Friend stream application: if I go to accounts & sync/general settings/account settings in facebook it should show sync frequency and notifications,etc, but only sync frequency shows.
Sound feedback when typing is loud.
Or is it just me????
