This seems like an odd one. I installed a rom which now appears to disable my data connection when I am using my bluetooth headset. Also, when I click on the comm setting it is telling me I am using Sprint PCS (Dial-up). Very strange
Lastly, when I have my headset activated, when I make a call, as soon as it is "connected" it reverts back to the phone and I have to click the menu to switch to headset again. According to what I saw the Sprint PCS (Dial-up) is the result of DCD's cab file. Any ideas?

Hello all. I have a Cingular 8525 (WM5) that I have successfully setup to use my home WiFi connection. Skype works great. My signal strength is good. In the "Network Cards" applet, it shows my WiFi network (it's the only one listed) with four bars and a "Connected" status. Everything seems fine.
When I try to use IE, though, it always tries to use GPRS to connect! Under Connections->Advanced->Select Networks, I have chosen "My Work Network" for both options. It still tries to use GPRS!
I don't even have a SIM installed, so I have no phone service whatsoever. So why in the blazes is it trying to use it instead of WiFi?
Anybody got any ideas?
Edit:
Well, I got it to work by toggling flight mode on and then back off again. Then, I had to turn WiFi back on again (bringing the phone out of flight mode doesn't re-enable WiFi). After I did that, though, IE used my wireless connection. Go figure.
I wish I knew the real reason, though. Someday, I'm going to install a SIM in this thing and I want to make sure it's not using that over my home wireless connection. Guess I'll have to look into those GPRS hacks I keep reading about.
maybe not much help but I had the same problem recently. I turned the phone to 'off' (even though it had no sim in it) and left it - it resolved itself and it working fine!
Thanks Frank. Glad I'm not the only one.
As a sidenote, I checked the registry settings (hack) for GPRS and there were two ISP's listed: one called My ISP and another called Cingular ISP (or something to that effect). In both cases, they were already set to 0 (off), so I would think they should have already been disabled.
GPRS lock
Hey guys I found a program called NOData these program allows you to disable the gprs so you dont suffer the conectio while you're using wi-fi and loose signal strenght works great and really easy to use.
Cheers
Same Problem
I have a T-mobile MDA and it has the same problem. I can fix it by going to the communication manager, turning off "data connection", and then toggling the wifi off and then back on. That always seems to fix it. Also, just going to flight mode does the same thing.
my X01HT always connect to gprs..i dont know how to turn off it..i`ll try MoDaCo_NoData..

sounds like you opened the cab file on your pc. Download cab file transfer it to your device and open it from there.

I have a sprint Mogul and on the Sprint network. I just recently got my phone last week and I had a mogul in the past. After getting my new phone from last week I flashed it with the new rom from HTC. Everything is going well but like after different amounts of time when my screen is off I turn my screen on and it shows the notification bubble saying that the data connection can not connect at this time.
I was wondering what was up with this because it has gotten really annoying that this hasn't happen in the past.
Thanks.
Is this the official Sprint 3.35 ROM, or the leak or custom ROM? Also, when you get the message about being disconnected, can you simply reconnect to Vision or do you have to soft reset?
It's the official sprint rom and yes I am able to connect back when I use an app that needs to use data.
OK so there are no errors, it just disconnects. I had this problem too when I flashed my ROM. Try the reg edit below and your Mogul should keep its data connection alive. It should only disconnect and stay disconnect if you do it manually.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\Sprint PCS Vision
Change AlwaysOn dword to 1
Alright I will try that thanks!

Will making this registry edit prevent incoming calls coming in until you manually turn off the data?
It shouldn't. An idle data connection, when the arrows are grey as opposed to solid white, has no effect on incoming calls. With an active data connection, you can receive calls if you're on EVDO. However if you have an active 1xRTT connection then incoming calls will go to voicemail.
Hi. I have been trying various programs such as PocketZenPhone (version 4.5.1), Tweakster with VJVolubilis, and PPC Profiles to create scheduled phone profiles on my 8125. With each program, I have run into the same problem. When the program toggles the phone radio back on from flight mode, it will not connect to the AT&T network. If I use the CommManager or the tray icon available from BatteryStatus, toggling the phone radio will result in connection with the network.
I'm thinking this might be a Wizard issue or a WM5 issue. Is there something I can do to help these programs connect to the network automatically rather than just turning on the phone radio (ie a registry hack that would automatically connect to the network when the phone radio is on)? Thanks.
Not the smoothest meathod, or most practical depending on where you are, but how about wi-fi? Either a card, or better yet built in. I remember reading that some devices actually turn the phone radio off when utilizing wi-fi, but it can be done manually easily!!!
I don't utilize my wifi often. When I do, the wifi doesn't affect the phone radio. I'm looking for automated phone setting based on time to shut down the phone radio and bluetooth at night while keeping my phone on standby then to go back to previous setting in the morning.
I'm guessing this is more of a Wizard issue since others who have used the program haven't had the same problem. The question is why toggling the phone radio would result in no network connection while using the CommManager that came with the phone would result in network connection.
Another problem I came up with is now my phone will not give an audible ring. When I set my phone at level 4 for the ringer, it sets back to zero when someone calls. I think it is the setting I left it in when I uninstalled the program. I'm not sure.
Any thoughts or help? Thanks.
Update to the second problem that I mentioned. I reinstalled PPC Profiles Pro and reset my phone setttings and it solved the problem. Unfortunately, I still have the phone radio toggling problem.
Hello,
I have a CDMA (Sprint) TP2 and I love it but I am getting an error message when attempting to connect to the bluetooth on the phone at times. The error that I have started recieving is could not start stack (or some mess about a stack could not be started) error message. The bluetooth ICON at the top of the screen shows as if it is connected but it will not work when I make a call or attempt to listen to music and I have to restart the phone to have it start working again. The BT icon shows at the top of the screen as if it is working but when you go to settings it is listing as if it is off.
Only restarting the phone corrects this issue at this time for me and I was wanting to see if any of my great friends on XDA had a CAB file or method of correcting this BT issue on the TP2?
I love this phone but I use my BT all day and it goes into a type of sleep mode like my old Treo 700wx used to do and it will not allow me to reconnect to the BT when i get a call so having it connected to the phone all day is a waste and the BT is really poor on this phone out of the box. I thank you guys for all the great things you do for this phone and other phones and please help.
i've been using my hd2 a long time now,still like it. A problem id like to solve is,when i switch wifi on i manually have to switch off data connection otherwise although the wifi icon is in the display,the phone is using the data connection.
is there a setting which does this? and switches back on once wifi is off?
you'd think it would do this automatically
Sounds strange, mine always does it the correct way around.
Have you tried a resert on the phone?
you could always switch off the data connection but that is far from elegant
Are you still on win mo or have you flashed a custom rom yet?
I am running Coredroid 1.7 currently
I'm still using Windows 6.5 didn't want to switch to Android or something incase it screwed my phone up. i've done various resets since having the phone,hard soft,did upgrade to htc ROM on their site.
by the way the only way you can tell it is or isn't using the wifi is if my modem is flashing etc as its being used
my work around is just to switch off the data connection when using WiFi but its not ideal
Settings menu all settings connection connections manage connections( I think, working from memory)
Should find a screen with two dropdowns to select which connection is used for auto and non auto connections. Usually the auto one defaults to the mobile data, but set them both to "the internet" and they should use whichever is available.
As I said, working from memory, so wording may not be correct.
i've found the two drop downs,ive dabbled with them before. the option which seems to mean internet is "my ISP" but when i select that there's then other settings which it isn't clear what to update.
I'm not sure that's the answer. i reckon a lot of people have this problem but think the wifi is slow where in fact its using data connection.
must be another solution?
hmm, its been a while since i used winmo, and i also know different providers call their connections by slightly different thibngs when the initial setup happens, but thats essentially where its set.
However, a much better option would be use the toggles in cookies hometab (or a standalone toggle) and use that to toggle data on only when needed, then when its off everything will default to wifi.
My workaround is i use data controller to switch the data connection off then switch wifi on. The data connection comes back on automatically when there is no wifi and the phone needs to update via internet.
If only I new the setting to avoid this workaround....
Touch tools has an option to make the phone use Wifi first, I don't know if it works well because I don't use my data connection, and never will. Anyway, it's called Wifi on demand or something like that..
stock or custom rom?
it was a rom from the htc website
