when i connect to my wifi network home or somewhere else, ofcourse i want to use that connectio when i surf the web,but when i start surfing, my phone (X1) switches to normal data connection, how can i configure my X1 to always prefer wifi when its activated.
I ******* LOL'd at this post. It is asked every single day (sometimes twice). Did you try to use the search function????? Maybe someone from the 1 million + users of XDA has had the same question?
Here you go, download the "No Data" utility:

If I want to stop internet data connection, I normally edit my connection settting (Start/settings/connections/Connections. Choose Manage existing connections, edit it, and change the access point name to a dummy name.
Once you have done that, everytime when it tries to automatically connect, it will fail and you will not get charged expensive connection cost.
I normally do it if I'm very close to using up my data quota for that month. At $15,000 per GB, I would not want it to connect at all.
Hope that helps.
You can use the free utility ModacoNoData
It lets you controm ur GPRS/3G connection as you like

I had the same really annoying issue that it automatically connects to 3G sometimes..... without even asking to make that [email protected]#[email protected]#
If this is the way to earn money, I'm gonna start a mobile company asap! That's easy money!
Thanks BigDede for this usefully link!
Would you kindly share your experiences when using Ipaq 610, 612 and 614 with wifi on? Preferably when streaming with high bitrate (over 64 kbps) continually.
When i use it this way for example when listening to online radio, the PPC stops charging and the device gets hot!
I am currently using the battery replacement provided by HP but it's not showing any improvements. Infact its worse because it's stops charging even sooner than usual.
Am i the only one with this problem? The device recharges again only after i restart it.
Please share.
i do
when u use wifi disconnect gprs/3G connection
u use wifi 4 long time so i recomend using nodata cab 2 keep it disconnected
hello erezyad,
Where can i find this "no data cab"?
Let me just confirm, so your ipaq also stops charging?
Others please comment so we can be sure.
BTW there are lots of freeware internet radios you can install on you ppc to entertain you like Mundu Radio, Pocket Scrobbler, lastfm Pocketpc Player, just to name a few.
google 4 "modaco nodata.cab "
cannt upload [due 2 the dev ...]
if u will not find it i will post the link
good luck
I have looked into the file you mentioned "modaco nodata.cab". I don't think you understand my problem.
The problem is my pocket pc ceases to charge itself using the charger when i'm intentionally connect to WIFI longer than 30 minutes using high bitrate connection. Why high bit rate? Because it generates lots of heat. I would like to know whether others are experiencing the same problem
Thx

tnx
now u know what nodata is good 4
(it will not let gprs contact whan u use WIFI)
enjoy
Please this is urgent,
after reverting the settings back i.e. re enabling modaco's NoData and phone Network setting to Automatic, I cannot connect to gprs/3g connection anymore. It gave an error message something like "No DNS server is specfied".
Why is this?
if u have issus with your data connection u can always go
start/settings/connection/hp ipaq data connect and refrsh your settings
i can only say that i have worked with nodata 4 long time on lots of devces with no issuse
Yes I had done that already...
Ok no problem so it must be something else.
BTW Pockettoolman ( http://pockettoolman.blogspot.com/ ) can also enable/disable data plus many more functions but this ability is relatively hidden within the app.
... but never mind thank you
Hi,
Anyone know if there is any setting that disables data connection automatically switch on?
I find it quite annoying at some point, i was using wifi to surf the net as well as having window live messenger on. But once i dc-ed from wifi (it auto reconnect back to access point) and the data connection automatically switch on (cost money for data connection), which i don't want it to happen.
Please assist, thank you.
seriously bro...............
use the search feature
you can find it on top. In "search by keywords" type "data connection"
select "search titles only"
in the forum list select blackstone {i presume you have blackstone}
hit search
click on the post closest to your issue

You can also download HD Tweak it allows you to do this, also check what your email etc settings are as It shouldnt connect unless it needs to
Opps~! my bad fellow gurus
I guess the search sure is useful.

Good day gentlemen!
Automatically?
I'm very lazy so is there a solution to automatically block the data-connection while using wifi?
Or maybe you can tell me how to detect wifi being turned on so i can write my own program...
Thanks
Is there anyway to make the phone connect to the internet using wifi before it will use alltel?
I know how to set my wifi adapter to access the internet.. But alltel data is always active and I cannot even utilize the wifi feature.
The only way i have been able to get it to use Wifi for internet is if I delete the alltel data settings. But i need them inthere incase I am not bear an open access point.
Ive searched the forum and found no relavent information. If I have missed it, please direct me to it... Thanks!
Just delete the connection. If you have a stock rom the connection will come back on its own after a restart. If on custom rom then just install an alltel carrier cab if you want it back.
So there isnt any way to keep the data and make it secondary? I go in and out of wifi coverage all day and it would be nice to have it connect to data if needed. thanks for the reply.
not that i know of
nodata utility. Lets you disable your data and just use wifi. Then when you want it back you just toggle it to enable. Worked good for me

Lol, thanks for the info, i havent been here in a couple days, but I will try it out...
I had my internet setup to use wifi before i flashed my phone the last time, but when I deleted the data connection this time, it did not work..
I obviously did something else and I cant remember what it was. I found where I could "delete settings" for alltel even after I deleted the main connection. I think that did it..
Now after that I could connect to facebook app via wifi, but IE would not work.. For that I had to go in and change the way apps that need to connect to a private network to My ISP as well.
It just seems to me that there is an easy way to do this... Would also be nice to be able to tell and change whether a program is connecting automatically to the internet or private network. I wonder if that is a registry setting that can be changed..
I also just have removed the password from the data connection. Rarely, I mean rare, when I use data as I enabled WiFi first. If I really want to use data, I punch in the password.
There was also a real cool app I saw that I forgot to tag the thread. But it would do things based on the cell tower you were using. I thought it might have had controls for WiFi as well, it definitely did for ring setting.
how can i do that my data connection stay alive when i standby the device?
(for example holding icq or fim working in standby)
i found something that does exactly this with WiFi but not with data connections...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636656 in this thread the seventh app
When you say data connection do you mean Wifi?
To keep wifi you can use any register editor (SKTools for example). Then search for this entry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms".
When you've found it look for a key named "HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended=0" and modify the 0 and type 1. It must be like this: HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended=1
I did this way and it worked. Anyways if you are not sure how to do it you can search for a .cab "WiFi Stay Awake" that do the step above.
You must be aware that use this trick to enable wifi while staying in "stand by" drains your battery faster and depending how much you use your htc mega won't last for a day. Hope this help
no i dont mean wifi i mean the internet connection
on german its called "Datenverbindung" in english this would be data connection that why i wrote that
but i mean the internet (GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA)
the connection closes when i lock my phone and turn display off (standby i guess)
Oh, I looked at the 7th app and saw "7th cab - Makes ur WiFi stay awake when the phone get's locked , usefull when using Skype(or similar) or dont want to connect/disconnect/reconnect every time u leave it for a minute and it goes in standby". That's why I thought that.
I'm not sure then because I don't use data connection but maybe there is an entry like the "HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended". Try to look @ it.
ok i searched but didn't found anything...
nobody any idea?..
