Device connects ramdomly to the internet (Manila 2.5?) - Networking

Hello,
I have the problem that my Topaz with Manila 2.5 (Sense) connects to the internet without any reason wich i can see. I have no automatic update functions runnning, but suddenly my Device connects via HSDPA.
Another Problem is, that everytime I go to the Twitter Tab (or rotate the phone in album tab), the Phone connects to HSDPA, too.
How can I disable this? I dont want to disable HSDPA in general - but I have a time-based contract...
Does anybody hasa solution for this?

the twitter tab would be the usual suspect

Either twitter, weather, push internet, push email, or email fetching..
You can use a program called Modaco No Data to disable your internet connection and enable it when you want to.

I have an other ROM now, which does not have this behavior. (But can´t find the reason for that)
For the people who have the same problems as i had: you can delete the password from you IPS-internet-connection - so the device will ask you for the password each time it tries to connect.

I would like to have a solution too, I don't have "DATA tarif" actually and this is a problem for me. I don't won't to cancel data connection because MMS or actualising of Weather (once a day)...

if u guys get a rom with the new leo dump, the data connection is fix there

HTC Touch Home Screen's Weather Update

Did anyone ever figure out how to get this page to update Via GPRS? Mine will only update from an AS Connection or if I happen to have WiFi on at the time. But, if I am connected using GPRS then it fails to recognize internet connectivity. (Yes, I do have wap.voicestream.com available and I am paying for the basic service).
Thanks in advance for any information you provide.
The reason could be that your GPRS connection is set through a proxy server.
I have the same problem with my GPRS.
Only if you can set the proxy address in your programs or can patch the program to except a proxy address you will be successful.
There is no other way to bypass a providers fixed proxy as far as I'm informed.

Actually, Come to think of it, I wouldn't think it would present a problem; The Weather plug-in is part of the HTC Touch - which presumably is built to use either GPRS or whatever available at the time. Thus it should work just the same on any similar unit.
Yes you are right, but some a provider offer a few different data subscriptions.
So with certain GPRS supscriptions you have only access certain ports which are defined be the provider.
I for example have a WAP & Email flatrate supscription, which allows me to surf wap pages and receive push mail.
Without simple modifications I would not be able to also surf on http sites.
If I would use a different GPRS option from my provider I would be able to surf with no porblems or use any kind of programs accessing the web.
I once had Spb Weather installed on my XDA and was only able to use my GPRS flat with it if I had a patched .exe of Spb Weather installed so it could pass the restricted O2 proxy.
I hope you get my point.
To simplify it, if you are able to use the Live Messenger on your xda with GPRS then you should also be able to update the Touch weather plugin.
BTW - SPB mobile shell wont waste such a great space on todayscreen - which for me is important for appointments and there are no problems with weather etc.
And looks nice.
And the now screen - i´m searching
You can find more infos here: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/mobileshell/screenshots.html?de
And in black with digital clock it looks nice.
And the menu strukture is perfekt for onehanded using.

there is a reghack:
search for "GPRS" and there msut be a value "enableDIfferGPRSicon" or something like that.
Set it to 1 and it will change from "G" = when GPRS (little slow) or "E" = EDGE (faster) is available.
lol
thats dont work for me and i am getting really pissed with the weather thingy ...it took me 2 full days to upgrade my herald to wm6 pdaviet and now the weather dont working??thats crap guys,..:/

HTC Home Weather + o2 surf+email-flat

Anyone know offhand how to get the weather to display in Fahrenheit and not Celsius? Thanks!
Edit: Nevermind, I found it. On the City Select screen, there's a menu button with Options.
Weather panel 5 days forecast
after i installed the HTC Home plugin, the "Download weather automatically" was enabled since then. I'm wondering why the weather panel, displays only the forecast of the last update even 2days already past. It will display the current weather forecast ONLY when you CONNECT or get update through the internet. The succeeding forecast will not display until you updated. It seems the 5 days forecast is not working properly.
i noticed that after i installed the plugin, the HTC home folder was not in the /Windows folder. is this normal? do i need to copy some files into my /windows folder?
Is there any way that the weather forecast will display the succeeding forecast without updating it to the internet since there are 5 days of forecast?

Auto data connection and stay switch on

Hi,
My second problem is that my Iolite activate data connection by itself like it was trying to download or uploade something (MMS or something), but the connection stay alive for a long time and nothing happen.
When I turn off data connection, it turn on again in a few minutes.
To avoid costs I use program which disable all configured data connections (program called "NoData"). But when all connections are disable, my Iolite don't turn off the screen and backlight after inactivity time.
I think that the reason can be in Microsoft Direct Push, but I don't use it.
This article is similarity to my problem: http://khason.net/blog/how-to-disable-exchange-security-policy-for-windows-mobile-devices/
The problem apears today. I have my Iolite for 2-3 weeks.
Help me please... It's so frustrating...

The topic you have paste is about totally different problem.
I'm not looking for program which can turn off unused connection, but I'm looking for a reason of unexpected turning on data connection.

I think, AdvancedConfig will be the right decision. Found it here.
Iolite comes with some apps, which use Data connection. For example Weather (default setting is to update it no matter what) or QuickGPS (downloads sattelite position info). Also when you are browsing via WiFi or ActiveSync, it might sometime disconnect and Data connection is automatically started.
Microsoft DirectPush is used with Exchange server (for example, I use it with my company email) and you must configure it. It is not enabled by default. Anyway, when I don't want to check email all the time, I just disable DirectPush and it stays disabled.
You also might to check, what app is using your DataConnection. Try SPB Wireless Monitor (I think it is trial), which can show you, what app is using which connection.

Yes, I know that. I turn off weather updater and quickgps (and footprints or something) first day. And I don't have any problem till today.
But what is strange: after disable all data connections some program prevent screen from switch off...
OK, I'll try SPB Wireless Monitor.
Just an idea. Aren't you using CorePlayer or TCPMP? CorePlayer can use network and data connection and also it can override display sleep time.
Advanced Config
in "data connections":
- GPRS auto attach: disabled
Manila TF2D
in "Weather tab"
- menu -> settings -> disable "automatically download weather data"
Settings (Start -> Settings -> System
in "location settings"
- disable AGPS
Messaging
- disable the automatic e-Mail-Download (when it is enabled)
I hope, that will help.
Greetings

Thanks for your workaround and I managed to get my BB Connect working on my Touch Pro 2 and I am using BIS.
Blackberry Connect is Working on HTC TouchPro2
Dear All,
Rejoice HTC TouchPro2 owners. Blackberry connect for working on HTC Touchpro 2 now. Just follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4150074&postcount=35 this web-link and you will achieve your intentions.
Can't get it working for long on mine
I have followed the instructions given in the link, and can get BBConnect 106 to work on my TP2, but only for a while ...
The BBConnect 106 loads, I get BES connection, email, contacts, calendar, notes and tasks downloaded ... manage to send and receive a few email, then it all stop ... with some very strange behaviour.
I have tried everything I can think of to get it working consistently, but can't manage it. I get the impression that the BBConnect is being loaded some place where it should be ... not very technical I know, but thats the way it appears.
The TP2 I have is a Hong Kong English Language version ... WWE ... not sure if that makes a difference.
ROM and Radio version ...
The version I have on my TP2 are
ROM 1.19.721.3 (51489) WWE
Radio: 3.44.25.27
And to correct my typo in the previous note, I think the BBConnect is being loaded shmewhere it shouldn't be loaded, which is causing other features and functions of the phone to mis-behave ... as an example, I was unable to search for new networks manually ... lost the Roaming flag on the top of the screen (small triangle sign), was always displaying GPRS connection, even when not connected to the network (so E (edge), or G being displayed ...)
I also tried version 104 of the BBconnect, just to see if it was version 106 specific, but this didn't make a difference.
Apart from that, the phone is close to perfect, for me at least ... particularly like the way the screen blanks when you are making a call and put it close to your ear, then comes alive again when you move it away so you can see it and access it. With the TP, I was always putting calls on hold when I put the phone to my ear ... also like the way the speaker phone is activated automatically when you place the phone face down.
Now if I could only get BBConnect to work, it would be perfect
I did get it working, I couldn't get SetModelID.exe to run with the reg string, I have Memmaid that allows you to set programs to run and I put SetModelID.exe in there and I have email!
Question!
Why use BBConnect for emails? What's wrong with the way the emails are already on the HTC? What is the difference exactly?
Just curious because this sounds interesting.

My company disables sync with Exchange and I can only get work email with Blackberry service. I think it's a common problem.
Yipee mine works too . only problem is sometimes the BB connect tells me radio blocked or in use especially when i use MSN chat or go online with another application on the phone. is there any option i need to tweak ?
BB CONNECT Messenger?
Can BB Messenger be used with BB Connect?
Windows Mobile 6.5 and BlackBerry Connect
Guys, I would like to hear from someone who understands the 6.6 environment whether you think upgrading into WM 6.5 will allow me to still use the BBerry Connect. has anybody tried upgrading a Rhodium and then try the BBerry?

Are you able to have multiple data streams? Or does Blackberry Connect shutdown when another data stream is present and you have to restart it? I can't seem to get multiple data streams to function on any ROM even with some of the old tricks from the 8525 and Raphael....

I have been running BB on my TP2 on 6.1, 6.5 and 6.51 roms with Sense 2.1 and 2.5. They all work, and no, I cannot have multiple data streams so when I use the browser my BB connect shows no connection. If I disconnect data, sometimes BB automatically connects but generally I have to run BB connect, disconnect and reconnect (so I added a shortcut to it on my programs).
For me, using 6.51 and 2.1 gives the least trouble. I dont know why.
BTW I keep getting reminders that there is a new BB Desktop update (5.01).
good idea on adding the shortcut. I have found that it rarely reconnects and I had to turn off the auto update for the weather or I would start missing emails. I hope someone gets a fix for this soon as this is the perfect email phone...

Having concurrent connections two 2 APNs simulatiously only works for GPRS (as far as I have observed on all my past and current devices).
So if you want to have BBC and Internet at the same time you need to switch to GPRS only and disable auto band switching for 3G. If anyone knows a way to get concurrent connections working on 3G, please post how.
EDIT: The infos in the follwing post should do the job:

Mail via WLAN only?

I really searched hard, but couldn't find any solutions, neither in a german forum.
My TD2 can use the wlan for internet via topaz' integrated opera without a problem. But if it comes to adding mail accounts, I am not able to choose wlan as the connection to download / send mails (yes, all access data are correct, it's only that I can't choose wlan as connection). Due to obvious reasons, I don't want to use the regular networks of my phone provider. I just want to use my free wlan at home to send / receive mails. What to do?
Normally when a data connection is request, if pda has the wifi actived it first try to connect with a wlan. if it don't find an active wlan, then it connect by gprs or 3g.
if you want avoid the connection with gprs/3g it is advisable to disactivate it by the program Modaco Nodata.
Got it now, all worked well. But after I entered a complete mail account that worked, I entered a second mail account that I didn't configur till the end. Now it appears in the touchflo 3d, is not deletable and does also NOT appear in the WM Mail structure. It seems it only appears in the TouchFlo, which showed it again after deactivating/ enabling TouchFlo again. SKTools doesn't find it either. Dunno where to fin it apart from the registry, where can I delete it?

[HowTo]auto update weather/stock data when sync with a PC?

So far I don't have a 3g plan. I would like to update the weather/stock data everytime the HD is sync with my PC with internet.
I can do this manually but it's better if it's auto-refreshed.
(it would be even better if the data gets refreshed every certain minutes when sync)
no one knows it? no one needs it?

One possible solution would be to setup your device to download weather/stock automatically (for example every hour) and disable 3G/internet activity by using NoData app.
This means your device won't be able to auto-update when not connected via activesync as you have disabled 3G activity but will be able to update when connected via activesync. Just toggle off internet & WAP on NoData

thanks, I tried this myself.
but every time I open the weather tab, I got an error msg says that there is not i-net connection. this is a bit annoying ...
the quickGPS works much better, when I sync with a PC, it starts it self and fetch the data in background from i-net.
yeah! anyone knows how to get rid of that message everytime i go to the weather tab?
Anyone have a better solution out there yet. I would also want the Stocks and Weather update with every Sync. I know it does it when the Weather Tab is selected, I would just rather it automatically update even if left on the home screen on every Docking.
