Hi guys and gals!
First off just let me say what great help i have found through the members of this forum and i just wanted to say a collective thank you! to all the people involved in working on this phone.
My question would be if this phone has a data counter for INTERNET connections? Something that would measure upload and download and would help me estimate my costs. I have not been able to find it in the phone's original software. Has anyone developed such an application?
Much obliged.

I agreed with LordK : SPB Wireless monitor is a good choice.
Ludovic
Thank you very much guys. It does look great.
I'll stay open for some other suggestions (perhaps even free ), if not i'll purchase that one since i abuse my 3G internet a lot and i wanna kept a track of the costs.
I tried Efficasoft GPRS traffic monitor (as I was used to on TyTN), but after each soft reset I lost the settings. Did it happen to any of you?
Had to switch to SPB Wireless monitor
I use spb one, works flawless on the winmo's I use-.º

As far as I know this happens, if the programm is unregistered. At least for me it was so.
Well, I did register it, but would not help either...

@kyphur
LMAO....good one!
i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only
oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.
so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

wlan g tweak - sets wlan to g mode and wireless plugin is a today screen plugin showing operator, bluetooth and wifi status. Yes that is correct way to install

No problem, this forum helps noobs period!
With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.
Ah ha quessed it now - backup! I use Spb backup and find it very good - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

1st) how do i scan the area for wifi connections? I keep trying to look for "search wireless networks" but i cant find the button. I dont know any connection name or ids etc so im trying to find out how to search for wireless networks, quick and easy.
2nd) what is the fastest rom? Im using the updated qtek firmware and it is VERY slow. And i was wondering if there is a rom, that does everything the qtek rom does but alot faster.
3rd) how do i take that fricken vibration when i send a text message? I hate feelings the vibration for only sending a message.

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade
ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!
I dont have a data plan simply because theyre too expensive. I was just wondering if there is a program that can track data usage this way if I have to use it I know how many KB, MB etc is being used.

I haven't the need for this application so I haven't researched if there are free ones. I would bet there is knowing the talent found in these forums..
google is your friend and what carrier do you have
I've seen this one but never tested http://www.smaato.com
Seems not to be a real freeware, take care.

i think lcminutes now tracks data as well

Unfortunately NOT any of this programs can count data SEPARATELY incomming and outgoing (there is may plans counting it that way).
I mean - you can not define a plan like this to watch your cost (you can only see the data on the chart).
Best greetings,
RA
SmaatoCost is freeware (in fact AD-enabled) and does monitor DATA cost (in and out) and phone calls & bills...
http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=1719
The deal is to update small advertissement banners twice a month.
Can be updated while your PDA is in the craddle (and without charge...)
So, to me it's very close to a freeware, because you won't have to open your purse to use it !
As the title says, I am looking for some software to monitor my usage to suit my HD with WM 6.1. I did a search and there is an old thread about a year ago, but it really does not mention any software. Any thoughts and opinions would be welcome. Thanks
Doesnt your HD come with GPRS Monitor already pre-installed?
No such thing on mine. It originally came from Singapore. Cheers.

not sure what you searched for but I found this on first search its what normally comes with the HD on a cd didnt you get a CD?
anyway its only a couple of months old thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502567 it has a link for the GPRS Monitor software
Thanks for that. I will check this out. Maybe it is a Diamond only thing!
i couldn't find anything free :/ you can use SPB Traffic Monitor trial version :/
I have managed to find the spb monitor for the HD and will give it a go and report back in a few days time. Thanks again for your replies.
SPG GPRS Monitor is the best one I've tried so far..
I use Spb Wireless Monitor....it gives you info on all the phones connections, gprs,wi-fi etc....even notifies you when you exceed certain limits....good piece of software
I use HomeScreen++ to monitor my GPRS usage. It can be setup so that you can have just one line on the Today screen with the usage details for the day and month.

Hi all,
I just want to know how much data i am downloading/uploading using my GPRS.
Is there any counter such in HTC Touch 2.
Thanks

There are many third party software available. One of them is SPB Wireless Monitor. It's one of the best monitors available. However it's a paid software.
Any freeware softwares available ?
