i just got a MDA replacement, and unlike my old MDA, this one does not update its time after i reboot. I realize this after a battery change, and i tried to find out why.
I tested with the old1.08ROM, 2.26ROM, and i am using XDA's WM6 ROM, and my MDA just won't sync the time with tmobile. I have to manually adjust the time every times!
does any one have this issue, and perhaps know to fix it?
thanks
Is there a time sync tab in your phone settings. If so, ensure that the checkbox is checked. If not, try this reg tweak from the wiki then enable the checkbox.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowTimeZonesPage = 1 (DWORD decimal)
the reg key is there already. but I don't have an option where it say sync time.

I need some help in figuring out some stuff here. Can anyone help me please. I have tried almost all options but didnt get it. Looks like I need to tweak a thing or two somewhere :wink:
1. How can I set my Qtek to sync date and time with the network's date time it is connected too. I know in other phones we have a option to overwrite phone's Date Time by network's date and time.
2. I am latched to cingular here. How do we enable cell info in this phone. ie. most of the towers you are connected to have an area name, so your phone flashes the area location you are in. Is there a way to set this option in this phone.
3. I know this is a very silly one, but I am not able to get the time in normal 12hr format. God, its taking me a long time to figure this out and still trying.
Can anyone share some knowledge on this

what region do you have specified in Regional Settings?
Start--Settings---System---Regional Settings
For mine I have it set to English (United States) then in the Time field I have the following setup:
h:mm:ss tt (optionally you can set it to hh:mm:ss tt)
"Time Seperator" should be ":"
"AM symbol" should be "AM"
"PM Symbol" should be "PM"
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSettings
ShowTimeZonesPage to 1
Soft-Reset and a new tab will open up in Phone Settings. Check the box and you're good to go.
I have no clue why some of these "hacks" don't come as default with the OS :roll:

Only on AKU2 ROMs - just in case original poster is on a pre-AKU2 ROM

Could you give me a little more info. I tried your instructions but in Settings -> Phone I havent seen a new tab. I am using Qtek9100 with the original ROM. Can you tell me what I should be looking for, since I had asked 3 questions and dont know to which one you responded :wink:

Therein lays the problem... you need an AKU2 ROM.
with the tool vxutil you can sync your time with a ntp server, maybe you can use that?

Well, one of the nice things with sync'ing to the network is that you pay no GPRS costs. Mind you, I have yet to find use for it with my PocketPC. Its internal clock is good enough to not go wildly off
I also read somewhere that it's supposed to sync with the desktop when hooking it up through activesync, but can't say I've noticed any such thing.
all im seeing is ways to keep it connected, i checked wiki and there is only ways to keep gprs on!
I don't think there is a way to make it automatically disconnect after sending an MMS. The only ways I've seen require user intervention, eg a button press or screen tap...
Add a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the Connection List for GPRS
To add a Disconnect button:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 8 (DWORD decimal)
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)
To disable both the Disconnect button and the timer:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Once you've done that, and soft reset etc, you can tap the G icon and press disconnect.
OR
Press and hold the red call-end hardware button for a few seconds and you'll see the GPRS icon change from connected to disconnected.
Check in MMS Settings->About if you are using ArcSoft MMS Composer. If so, go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\ArcSoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\UI registry key and check if integer parameter called AutoDisconnect is present and set to 1. I guess it is auto disconnect after sending/receiving MMS. I have it already delivered in Extended Rom cab file containing MMS settings from my operator.
im using the default poutlook.exe app for my MMS
in the qtek 9100 external rom, there is a cab file called "MP_MMSAutoDisconnect_060106.CAB" that does this.
hmm ill check that out then

i dled the 3 ext_rom files on ftp not seeing this file.. can u post?
here it is!
This .cab does exactly the same in registry
Anyway, thanks for it, may be helpful to fast re-enable auto disconnect after HR.
i have set 1 but it doen't work
Try this, worked for me

i forgot all bout that program i used it on my hp6515. thank you
Is there a way to turn GPRS off ? I tried registry tweaks but the GPRS off option will not stick for me everytime I reset and check it unchecked again.
A Shortcut or a simple app to turn off and on would be a godsend.
holding down the hang up button for awhile disable grps on at least himalaya
and there is a program which let you connect and disconnect in the same place you turn flight mode on and off
problem is this still allows gprs to connect when you use ie or sync email, I do not want it to connect auto to gprs unless I say so
then pick work rather then my isp under connections
I have a tmobile 'mda' in the us and I did a registry edit that made it so when i tap and hold the gprs icon at the top it has a timer and a disconnect button.
Add a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the Connection List for GPRS
To add a Disconnect button:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 8 (DWORD decimal)
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)
To disable both the Disconnect button and the timer:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 0 (DWORD decimal)
from this page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
bendog that a very nice suggestion, thank you.
Lucky for me as part of the t-mobile uk phone you get sbp gprs monitor included, and this sits in the task bar and has a connect and disconnect button already.
Again it does help disable GPRS till I really want to use it.

Tried this also, it doesn't seem to care, it connects anyway whenever my email interval says so.
Is there any other APIs like connection manager,RAS to dis/establish GPRS on WM 2005?
this should do the trick
see:
http://www.gb-soft.cz/XDAII/product_gprs_tweak_en.htm
(haven't used it yet so no guarantee it works)
There is also a program called "NODATA" to disable (temporarily) GPRS...
Just need summat to log it now
try vjvolubilis. you can easily make shortcuts to toggle, bluetooth, wifi, gprs, audio, etc...
http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJVolubilis
There you go.
NoData from Modaco. Does exactly what you want. Disables GPRS until you want to turn it on again. Overrides all programs that require access to the internet. Excellent for when you are on international roaming or when your battery is dying.

So far I've tried all these on my BA (XDA IIs) to no avail.
However, a rather dirty solution has been to set up a new 'dummy' modem connection dialling my own number or '0' and setting that as the default. I then need to change it back to the other settings to allow web access via the 'phone.
Would rather have a nice button though...

how to edit registry? is that need any software?
For people like you, it's better to stay away from the registry until you understand more of it.. here's a better way to do it...
start -> Settings -> Connections(tab) -> Beam
Check the Receive all incoming beams checkbox...
see is this works...
i'm having this issue too, please somebody help me here.
solution on previous post didn't work.
when sending files from my pc an error says "FTP service not found on target device"
on G4 cingular 8125 with love_rom 2.26
Hello every body, firstebal i love this site.
I'd got the same problem, enable to send but impossible to receive anything, in fact i just go in beam menu and select receive and the receiving bluetooth work !

Hi , the same problem, above didnt work for me, it was allready set to 1.
also my IR is not workin at all.
help. Kris
I am planning on travelling through different time zones this summer. I thought my phone had a "use network time" box under settings but it does not.
is there a registry setting for that or a simple application to correct the clock and to do so without screwing up my PIM appointments?
there is an registry key that enables a Tab in the Phone settings called "Time Zones".
on my Rom(Slim edition 6.1) it is the key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting]
"ShowNITZPage"=dword:00000001.
it can also be "ShowTimeZonePage" instedd of "ShowNITZPage".
if you that go to the tab and check this setting it changes you clock automaticly when youre in an other timezone.
i have the timezones tab but not the option to use network time...
I am most definetly no expert here, but on my Treo 700WX, I do remember the option for enabling network time, but it was in the original startup when you first turn on the device, or after a hard-reset. I would think as long as you remember it being enabled, then you should be OK.
Or you could just use an app that allows more than one clock on your Today screen, like SPB Time (if you don't want to purchase, just use the trial period on your trip)!!!
Hope that helps some!!
start > settings > phone
select time synchronization then get settings, then select "time synchronize with mobile network"
I am using an Atom which apparently has a bug that it loses its time setting when you swap batteries and do not have any of those registry settings. hoped there was an application or reg hack for me.

I have this selected but still have to manually select a time zone. Few times I traveled from Pacific US to Eastern US, phone (HTC Touch, on Sprint) did not change the time until I picked the correct zone.

I tried adding this using both names and in both cases, I did not see a new tab called 'Time Zones' after doing a soft reset... Trying this on a Sprint Mogul with stock ROM...

Hi guys,
are we talking about Windows Mobile 5 or 6 here? I also tried both names and did soft reset but page is not shown.
My phone is LG KS20 (Windows Mobile 6).
Wow, I just tested changing the key on my phone (02 XDA II - CShekhar 6.1) and it worked perfectly, even after a soft reset. Wish I knew about this years ago. A++++ would read again.
