Hi all,
I have an HTC Touch Dual (WM6) and PocketMax PhoneAlarm 2.0.0 installed and I realized that some settings of PhoneAlarm profiles do not work, such as GSM / UMTS network type settings
I realized that a profile switching to GSM continue to work in 3G even if the setting Start -> Settings -> Phone -> Band -> network type set to GSM...
Has anyone experienced the same problem?
Any suggestion??
Thanks in advance

OK.
When I'm at home, I use my Wifi AP to connect to the Internet and my home network. I have to set my settings to:
Settings --> Connections --> Connections --> Adcanced --> Select Networks --> My Work Network.
When I'm on the move and my HTC TyTn is connected to KPN UMTS I hve to manually set my settings to:
Settings --> Connections --> Connections --> Adcanced --> Select Networks --> KPN GPRS / UMTS.
Is there any chance that this can be set to any kind of automatic mode, a scripting tool on my todayscreen or other solution???
I am not familiar with an automatic way to switch networks, but here is what I do on my Jamin:
My GPRS settings are under My ISP (just tap 'add new connection in the main connections tab, note My ISP has to be selected for use in 'advanced' for this option to be available)
When I connect to my home WiFi (or any other WiFi) I select 'this network connects: to the internet'.
In advance->network selection both lists are on My ISP.
This way I never have to switch between networks and all apps (except push mail that insists on GPRS) use WiFi if available and GPRS if not.
Thx
Wow, thanks!!
4 months of trying, mindbreaking hours. While the solution is so simple!
IT WORKS!

I need to do what the opening post dictates also, but I dont quite have a grasp on the above.
Can anyone make it any clearer? Sorry
I recently bought a used T-Mobile MDA Touch. Naturally it has T-Mobile finger prints all over it. If I active an application that requires the Internet, the phone connects to edge or gprs. It notifies me but doesn't need my permission. This can happen with my attention else where and since I am on a prepaid it can cost a lot of money that returns no value.
Any ideas or suggestions? Perhaps there's a switch or a or hack that would require my input before proceeding to these costly alternative?
Thanks in advance.
Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool can disable connections without rebooting system - if you need GPRS, you just start ACT, go to connections settings and tap connection you want to enable. When you don't need it, you disable it again. Works perfect for me
Thank you! Works for me, too. )
New, another invention: after blocking connection this way if you want to use it, you don't have to re-enable it. Just install Opal Comm Manager and set your connection as default in Settings -> |Connections| -> Connections. Tapping Data connection in Comm Manager will connect it, but other apps won't be able to do it Tested on Onyx 4.0.

Sorry I cant see how to do this. I have installed Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 and disabled GPRS, and I have Opal Comm Manager installed, but latter will not let me switch GPRS back on.
Can you clarify exactly how/where to "set the connection as default" so that I will not need to go back into Advanced Configuration Tool to re-enable it every time?
Hi,
Phone: HTC Touch Diamond (P3700)
OS: WM6.1 Professional
I'm new to the forum, sorry if this had been covered already, I tried to use the search, but couldn't find anything.
Basically, what I'm looking for is an app that allows me to access the Network Management quickly so that I can switch the connection settings from the provider's to My Work Network or another without going through [Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks] every single time. Or perhaps a way to create a shortcut instead?
I'm looking for this because I need to change it when I'm at home or on the road. At home, where WiFi is available, I always change it to My Work Network on both Internet and private network settings to ensure that I'm not connecting through my provider. And when I'm on road, I'd change it back to my provider's settings so that I can access their free websites.
Thanks.
Ok, after some more research, so far the closest thing I found is making a shortcut to Windows\remnet.exe.
Sorry i am really a newbie,but how do i update the weather by using Wifi??because it is always automatically connected to GPRS for the update and there is data charge.....help is appreciated...
My Jade uses, if available, WiFi. Did you set up your WiFi with encryption key etc properly on your Jade? Should use this, if activated...

Connect with ActivSync. That will do the trick.
You could use nodata to block gprs, just see your other thread about GoogleMaps.
And make sure your connections are set up properly....
start -> settings -> connections (tab) -> connections -> advanced (tab) -> select networks -> both options should be set to 'my work network'.
Go back to connections tab -> advanced network -> disable HSDPA
go to text service tab(or sms tab) -> text message through GSM
Now you've disabled all GPRS data traffic, set up your wifi connection and you should be good to go.
Mine doesn't seem to like wifi networks. It connects to them ok but then email and opera won't work.
If I connect via my service provider using 3G everything works fine.
I don't mind this as my contract includes 500mb of data per month and I don't use it online that much as I still find it easier using a PC if I'm at home or in the office.
I also find that if I have unique switched on to search for wifi networks it kills the battery life so I don't have it enabled.
I'm sure you will be able to get it to work, I just haven't botherd due to the reasons above.
Hi all
I know in Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Connections -> Advanced Network you have the option to do it from there
But right now I have got to stick with my Tmobile UK stock rom for warranty purposes for the next week because i have an internet problem with the hsdpa
This crappy 1.43 rom does not provide this option in the advanced network and i cannot find any other way to disable it
I would really rather to not have to flash a cooked rom to make the internet usable again just so i have to reflash back in 5 days.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
To get to the Windows Mobile Settings, Go To HTC Settings.
