The apps on my x1 keep trying to connect via GPRS when there is a WIFI signal available. How do i make all applications use wifi when available and only use GPRS when there is no WIFI?
thanks
I just go to settings->connection->connection-advanced select network
and pick my homenetwork rather then my isp in the dropdownbox
I've tried that, although I don't get home network, its work network . But the problem is that if there's no wifi, it doesn't connect via GPRS/HSPA. Is there anyway to make it connect via WIFI if available and by GPRS if NOT?
Thank you for your reply

hi! thx for reply
i tried today in starbucks, but the GPRS seems still comes up, i picked up my work network, tap edit, there are only three option, 1, auto pick 2, O2 active
3, WAP network
when i open IE, it always inform me, connect to O2 active, then Dialed: Then answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection setting and change them if needed, tap setting.
the wifi connection is realy confuse me, dose any one know how to connect to internet in a cafe or airport??
When you've got wifi enabled make sure that Settings->Connections->Network Cards has My Network Card connects to "The Internet".
When I look at the list of connected networks, I see these:
T-Mobile GPRS (GPRS)
[my wifi] (Wi-Fi)
The wifi connection is set as "connects to: The Internet".
Sometimes when I go to check email, it'll connect to GPRS even though I have a wifi connection. Why doesn't it use the wifi? How can I force it to use wifi instead of GPRS?
t-mobile with the 2.17 ROM, 2.07 radio.
Bump....I'd like to know the same thing.
Assuming you will never want to use GPRS....if so, write down the settings
Go to Start>Connections>Connections>Delete GPRS
At least that's what I think I did
Make sure that both your wireless lan card and wireless connection are set to connet to the internet. I had my phone wifi set as connecting to "the internet" but when I clicked on my home wireless connection in the list of available access points it was set to connect to "work". Hopes this helps.
I am wanting to know the answer to this problem also... I dont have edge or Gprs and I want to be able to check my pop & pop3 email using Wifi..
Thanks!
Does anyone know how to solve this problem???
Hi guy,
Now, I'am using XDA Neo with the latest dopod rom, and enjoy it very much.
I always connect the internet via WLAN at my home and sometime at hotspot in public.
I found a problem, when the signal of access point is low or none my neo try to connect GPRS automatically!!!
I don't want it to be connected and don't want to delete the GPRS setting cause sometime I wanna use it in somewhere that doesn't have a hotspot.
Is it possible to do it: when I surf the internet via WLAN no matter the signal low or none, the GPRS would not be connected?
Thanks guy
Hey, I don't know if this works for you but whenever I connect to the Internet via Wifi I turn off the phone function. I'm not sure if this is a solution for you because as you might be aware you can't receive calls anymore. :wink:
If there is a more eloquent solution to this I'd be very much interested too.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go Start>Settings Then connections tab
Click Connections Icon then the 'Advanced' button
Click 'Select Networks' then in the Top drop down selection boc " programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using'
change this to either 'My Isp' or 'My Work Network'
'My Isp' is what i use, as this has no connection set under it
then if you have no wifi access gprs can not connect
when you wish to use gprs do the above, except select whatever you connection was originally and gprs will work again
Finally today I was able to connect to my wifi network but I cant get my MDA on the internet. Every connection I try fails. I am on tmobile USA and I have to use a proxy server for my gprs but not for WIFI. Am I missing something?
Try setting wifi to max performance under wifi settings - some find that does the trick
make sure ur wireless network is set to connect to the internet directly and not thro a proxy. that caused me some probs a while back.
^^^How do I go about checking the proxy?
Hello,

Thanks a lot!!!
No Data will allow you to stop data connection.

Course it will there seperate
All you do is block Orange connection when you want and unblock when needed
This program doesn't help me , because even i close it the GPRS still work.
But than i take the SIM from the phone, or turn off the phone feature, the internet connection is unavailable.
I think that all problem that was in some topics about the WIFI speed , is because of they used the GPRS internet and not the WIFI.
So , there some more complexive problem with internet WIFI in HTC HD.
Just try to take out the SIM and than surf in internet with WIFI? There is no way!!!!!
the connection icons on the top of the screen clearly show which data connection is active
the manual describe the meaning of all the top screen icons
settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
pick my home network or whatever the non isp connection is named on your phone
and all data connections when there is no wifi or activesync connections to get free network from will fail with an error == you will never get a grps connection again
before you turn it back to my isp or what it's named on your device
