Hi there... i need disable EDGE from connecting on my Rogers HTC touch... i am getting billed for my usage from the weather updates etc.... and i need to disable this so i can only use the wifi. problem is i cant find anything on how to disable this?
welcome to the forum dreckis604
check this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331817
there are a lot of other similar threads. which will tell you to delete your gprs settings, so your phone does not know how to connect to gprs. there is also a program called nodata.
you'll find a lot more if you do a little searching.

I have searched all over multiple forums and havn't come up with a definitive answer to my question. I have a Cingular 8125 and no data plan. I want to disable GPRS so that in case my wifi isnt connected I dont connect through GPRS. There were rumors of a registry key that could disable it, but I couldn't find any more info.
Where can I find the registry key to disable GPRS entirely?
What I would recommend is for you to install Registrywizard it has the option to disable GPRS, or look a bit harder since I'm pretty sure the info is around here somewhere, you might even check in registrywizard's thread, it's a long one though, so be warned the thread is this one

Super, Thanks!
The keys for disabling GPRS is actually in HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\ Cingular GPRS\
and the same except the last part is Cingular CSD.
Thanks again for the tip.
Cingular
I know this isn't the answer you were looking for...but I just called Cingular support (611) and told them to disable GPRS (might be best to call it mobile internet...they aren't the smartest). They will disable it immediately and you don't have to remember which keys you changed if you want to enable it later.
Hello,
i was wondering if it would be possible to limit any application on my hermes to only use wifi for data-retrieval.
expect for the mms application of course...
a few days ago i flashed my hermes with wm6 from lvsw, it works fine (expect the thing, that i cannot change the keyboard-layout...) and reinstalled the SPB GPRS-Monitor. It shows 0 kb all the time, but this cannot be true.
10 minutes ago, i connected to google.com to search for some things, and, as expected, pie showed up google. the only weird thing is: after closing pie i noticed, that my wifi-connection was disabled, and my 3G/GPRS-Connection was enabled.
it doesn't matter what i try. if i disable 3g/gprs in comm-mgr. it reenables without user-interaction. and in fact: the device seems to use this connection, if its enabled (without asking me of course)
so no again my question.
ANY way to limit PIE and email-checking to only use wifi?
any way to do this without breaking my ability to receive and send mms?
greetings
garfield
ps: sorry for my, partially, bad english. i am not writing english so often atm. and therefore i'm not trained
hi there again, seems that I found a way to limit all applications to use wifi only.
in fact "my work network" is the network containing all my wifi-connections.
with this in mind I found one option in start >settings>connections>advanced. there I can select wich betworks to use t automaticallz connect to the internet. I put "my work network" in both fields. and now mz hermes complains everytime I try to check my mail with wifi disabled. when sending an mms my hermes asks for a new connection in order to send that mms.
this is all I wanted. so this thread is now "solved"
[EDIT]
Is there any way, to edit the thread-title? searched the bottom of the page, and the "thread-tools" but can't find any option anywhere...
if theres any mod online, please feel free to edit the thread-title and prefix it with [solved] or something like that. thank you

Hi out there,
searching for a while now. Found nothing, but CommMgrPro which is way to much.
I search for a simple software to automatically disable GPRS/UMTS data while roaming and enable it back when logged into my provider again.
Would be nice to have more than one "home" provider.
Any hints? Thanks and happy holidays.
the simplest way is change your mobile while roaming
i was surprised that my htc touchpro activate
data communication automatically while i
had disactivated data com before.
Modaco NoData
Thanks. At least a simple way to enable and disable.
My problem is that i live close to the boarder (germany/france) and that i flip into roaming here really fast.
An automatic solution is needed very urgend.
Locking to my provider is ok, but the htc asks me what provider to join, when back.
All that sucks.
I cant believe that there is no solution.
Is CommMgrPro able to handle that?
Nobody?
Nobody else who got this problem and nobody who got a solution?
Is CommMgrPro able to handle that? The documentation is bad.

Maybe you can PM danielherrero.
He's the creator of CommMgrPro.
I am very interested in this as well - and from my searching seems a lot of others would be interested in an automated system.
My network provider automatically roams to another specific provider when in a non-coverage area (small pockets within metro areas and rural). The problem is that the data cost when roaming is ridiculous. I use Push Email for work and while on roaming want GPRS access to be disabled until I am connected back with my provider.
I've installed NoData by MoDaCo which is good but this requires the user to remember to enable/disable GPRS.
*EDIT*
I found exactly what I needed after a more searching - Wombat's PhoneRoam Script (Stay Connected to High Speed Networks Only). Will see whether it does the job

I agree to have more that only one network provider. Here in Belgium we can subscribe to Vodafone passport that enable to use "free" of charge the data on any Vodafone network, but when I go in France it switch to other provider and in that case my push mail is expensive... I'm also in the boarder of France.
So basicaly :
1/ A very very simple prg that disable the data automatically if roaming.
2/ A version 2 that would put all permited network provider even if roaming.
Thanks
This thing exists for the iPhone. Its a simple switch in the interface.
You can select "Data-Roaming" on/off, thats all.
Where is it in WM?

Because Apple is looking this forum (like MS) to know required features and this one is in the back log.

Modaco is fine but when you are at the border is quite difficult to follow your carrier and disable data time by time...or even remember you are switching to another country after few km and you always have one app trying to connect (Tomtom, weather, opening a mail...)
Modaco it's what I use actually but let me forget stressing an unwanted roaming data connection...
a+
Used NoData and application is still able to connect...
Hi,
I switched off all data connections in the registry (using frost Advanced Config, than also tried NoData) and in general windows mobile apps aren't able to connect... but I have a one third party application, which is somehow able to ignore that and connect even when the data connection is toggled to DISABLED...
Any ideas how to REALLY disable data connections (for roaming)...
here is the automatic solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503131
this will automatically disable ALL data in roaming and re-enable under home provider without any user configuration - nothing to toggle
Is there any way to stop the annoying connections to the internet using your phones network, i havent got a monthly subscribed inet package and dont want to incurr massive bills from accessing a few emails!
I heard there is programs out there that can do it, or is it a simple menu option that im not seeing?
Cheers guys!
The program you're searching is called NoData.
Just use the search function....
Grtz,
Degake
right think i got it sorted using this!

I want to disable any data connection ability on GRPS/3g and only do data on my wifi on the 8525. Suggestions?
Go to modaco and find nodata prog for hermes
No Data program
I had found this and downloaded it but have seen posts on this forum that said some could not get it to work.
Always you can delete your settings for GPRS...
