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.
Then choose "Menu" from the bottom right of the screen and choose All Settings
Then follow your instructions from above.

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.
Ok. Now for everybody who keeps getting crazy charges for their phone for data charges when all they really use is MMS, this short guide is your friend. This assumes you have a CDMA phone (idk about GSM right now) and Arcsoft MMS. This was tested on an Alltel ROM and seems to work great. I am not responsible for any additional charges that you may receive but I did work as hard as possible to create a carrier foolproof solution. If you do not care about MMS, skip steps 7-10.
Here goes:
1. Install a DCD Carrier cab. It doesn't matter which one. This will allow you to change your Connection settings if you have a carrier like Verizon or Alltel that prevents you from doing so.
2. Soft reset in so the cab will take effect.
3. Go to Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks
4. Change the first drop-down box to 'My Work Network' or another blank connection.
5. Press OK twice and soft reset.
6. Go back to Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks and verify that your connection settings have indeed changed.
7. Go to Start -> Programs -> Messaging -> SMS/MMS -> Menu -> MMS Options -> Servers
8. Edit the MMSC server you would like to send and receive MMSs on.
9. Go down to 'Connect via:' and select your carrier's connection settings.
10. You're done!!! Enjoy your MMS enabled, no data, less money on your bill phone!!!!
Thanks alot but the best solution is using this program

Okay, so I've shagged my internet settings completely. I now can't connect to the internet at all, despite having a good strength 3G connection.
Could someone help me restore my internet settings? I know it's a bit of a vague question, but I don't know where the problem lies.
I've already tried the "automatically configure connection", and it unfortunately didn't help (after disconnect/reconnect and also after a reset).
Please help me - I feel naked without the internet in my pocket! lol
Cheers,
John.
Original post:
Could someone do me a favour?
I need someone with a Touch HD, from Orange (in the UK), to go to the following screen...
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks
...and tell me what "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using".
I'd really appreciate it, as I believe mine was set to something that now doesn't work, but one of the others does!!!
Thanks in advance,
John.
Mine is set to Orange Internet
Post deleted, because I've made things worse
To get the same settings as mine, try the following:
Tap Start
Tap Settings
Tap the Connections tab
Tap Connections
Tap the Advanced tab
Tap Select Networks
In the first drop down-box select Orange Internet
Tap Edit (if Orange Internet isn't listed tap new)
Select Orange Internet
Tap Edit
Data settings
Enter Orange Internet for the name
Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) from the modem list
Tap Next
Enter orangeinternet in the access point name
Tap Next
Leave the 'Username', 'Password' and 'Domain' blank
Tap Finish
Tap the Proxy Settings tab
Tick 'This network connects to the Internet'
Un-tick 'This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet'
Tap ok three times
Tap X
Hope that helps,
JB
Very much appreciated John Boy, but that's exactly what I had. There must have been something wrong elsewhere.
I use the past-tense, as I've just flashed my phone with the newest version of wm6.5 (I favour miri as my custom rom), and that's solved all my problems.
I pretty much expected that I'd need to hard reset to solve this problem, but it'll probably help others in future, having that list of settings and info.
Thanks again mate - much appreciated.

Hi, got the HTC HD2 (Leo) since last week. I searched with Google, i search this forum, I read the wiki, faq and several posts, i read the 'don't start a thread!' post, still no luck.
At my work we us a non-broadcast wireless network (wifi) in other words, it's hidden. On my old P3300 with default windows mobile, I could easily add a network manually, but now with htc sense I can't find this option. Any idea if this is possible?
To make things clear: wifi IS working, when I go to the wifi settings I see some broadcasted networks but no option to add a network manually. The advanced menu don't give me that option neither.
Thanks, Paul
When you have the wifi settings open, click Advanced and then the "Change Network" button. Then just click "Add New". I guess you'll recognise the rest after that.
Good luck
Thanks,
I finally found it under Settings -> Menu -> More settings.
