Hi Guys,
I looked around the forum for quite a while, but can anyone tell me if I have disabled all the dataconnections, or howto?
I do not have an unlimited dataplan and so I do not wish to use the 2G/3G/GPRS(/H?) connections on the phone.
I have installed NoData cab and disabled the GPRS, does this mean the other data (2G/3GG) is also disabled? When I do this the phone Icon shows H.
I tried the SetupDialUpEnablerDisablerv0.3 but that did not install on the phone..
Anyone?

Hi
Without going through every application how can I setup the connection options to only automatically connect when wifi is available or when docked. Idealy I would like to be prompted to connect via GPRS or 3g network? Any reg hacks on this one?
Regards
Eric
GPRS connection disable or prompt
hi, I'm having the same issue as above...would like to connect to GPRS manually only.
anyone !??!
me to, i am only on a limited plan for gprs/3g and the costs are quite high 2c p kb.
i use wifi at home a lot, so usually not a problem, but dodgy activesyncs to exchange server, or accidentally opening IE auto connects 3g gprs without prompting.
Any hacks, or software that anybody knows about.
I also need this, i ran my bill up without knowing/wanting to

I have changed my default IE page to "about:blank" - at least it means that IE doesn't go off trying to load a page by default that I'm most likely not interested in, but it also prevents it from connecting GPRS/3G should you start it by accident.
Cheers,
Steve.
Has anyone had any luck with this? I also am on an expensive tariff and unwanted connections prove costly. I have not yet found the answer, but will keep you all posted if I stumble across a setting/hack.
Would also like some tips on this, dont know whats dialling up 3g, but everytime i looked at my phone it was bloody connected grrrr.
Im also intressted, i need like a on/off button for the gprs. My damn egress updates my blogs/rss streams all the time. I have disable autoupdate in egress but it still wants to update sometimes :/
I've found nothing yet and have resorted to removing my GPRS settings until sorted.
I will crack open C# and attempt my first PDA utility - with the aim being to prevent GPRS/GSM from connecting unless something is manually toggled. Wish me luck
dudes, this has been posted a few times already
it's a part of the t-mob ext rom.

What does this cab file do exactly? Does it give you an option to manualy connect or does it turn GPRS off completely? Plus where can we find the option to turn it ON if we can?
One more thing please, can I install this cab file on my O2 XDA Exec without any conflicts since it was made for T-Mobile?
I am not 110% but I believe it appears in a number of carrier ext roms, and just stops GPRS from being attached all the time (like an idle disconnect perhaps?)
When you want GPRS, then you can connect by starting the application you want (ie : Internet Explorer) and GPRS kicks in.
Hope it helps.
Joe
couldnt find it in mine, using the imate jj.
will install and see what happens....
using vijay's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37963
you still get the msg that it is trying to connect and eventually an error msg, but better than a big phone bill
Hi guys !
I've installed the .cab on my 9000 and G icon is now disappeared
In the future will be possible to uninstall the .cab and restore the icon ?
Thanks :wink:
Hi to everybody.
Do you know if it possible through a registry update, to not allow data connection if the xda is in roaming?!
Hope that someone has an answer or a glue!! I really need it guys, belive me!
Try Modoca no data (search for a cab file), it does not exactly disable data when roaming, but allows you to turn data connection off and on...

Thanks for the replay, but this not useful for me, I mean, I can turn data off and on simply changing the data connection on settings. Maybe this cab is faster than open everytime Start->Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Select Network, but I always need data connection because of push email service, and turn of it only on roaming because of traffic cost under roaming. Any other ideas?
Hi guys,
with my touch HD, im on pay as you go on Orange, so the data connection fees are quite high. I prefer to use wifi but sometimes i accidentally update weather/email or run opera and then it costs me. is there any way i can fully disable this? on solution would be to disable the cellular radio but that's hardly practical.
thanks for any help.
Use the Modaco NoData app. It lets you toggle your data - if you toggle it off, then apps can't auto-connect (you'll get an error if you haven't got an active Wi-Fi connection to the Internet)

testing it now
wow, thanks for that. it workds really well and i reccommend it to anyone with the same problem. the only downside is that u have to sign up to the website to get it.
I'm thinking of giving it to my son to play with but I want the device to say Internet not available if he isn't near a WiFi hotspot.
Under settings there is a Cingular GPRS, Cingular CSD (which I think is long ago disabled) and Auto pick.
Maybe I should flash a newer ROM since its stock but in any event how can I completely disable the internet through AT&T?
I don't know any "correct" way to do this, but if you delete all the GPRS connection settings, it will not be able to do it, unless under a WiFi
Cheers
there is a little app, called mmm "nodata" i think, cant take a look because my wiz is not working at the moment, but that app would disable all data connections
edit: here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1325870
if u call ATT u can tell them to disable data for his line only which will stop u from incurring and extra usage charges
How do I disable the phone from auto connecting to gprs? I tried testing it by launching opera without switching on wifi. The phone still connects through gprs although I turn data connection off. It will turn data connection on by itself. Even when I switch wifi on and want it to connect through wifi instead, it is still connecting through gprs. How do i solve this?
When wifi is "connected" (not only "on"), it uses wifi, no dataconnection.
If you really don't want a dataconnection, use something like NoData...
i tried NoData but it's not working. i'm using official htc wm6.5 rom.
Sorry I cannot be more precise because I don't use it anymore, but I remember there was an option to block data connection in HDTweak. Is that you want? Block dataconnection permanently? If so, you could alternatively delete your mobile operator connection in Settings/Connections. If anyone knows the registry changes involved in this,please post them so that I can make a .cab, I need it when roaming.
try MWLongLife! It's magic
this program is developed for saving battrey life by controlling 3G/2G network and data usage
you can set each program which need data access by 3G, WiFi, USB, etc.
Also, force to use Wifi rather than gprs if it's available.
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I tried installing nodata again and it worked this time.
for those interested there's also a cab to disable push internet completely (think that was the origin of your problem).
Search the forum on NoPushInternet

Yes please... I was about to post the same issue. I think the precedence in WM6.5 of using mobile wireless over WiFi is the wrong way around if the WiFi signal is strong. In my house, my WiFi is strong everywhere but 3G comes and goes. It's darn annoying to get the message about "No connectivity" when I know for sure there is a very good WiFi signal.
Cheers, Rob.
PS. Just had it whilst writing this email - "Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device..."
It's "WM" not "MW".
