hi,
I used to be able to use my mogul as modem so I could sruf the web on my laptop from the road...I made the reg changes to make it possible under WM5.
I upgraded to WM 6.1 ROM today, and I'm no longer able to get on the internet using the phone...
is there more reg changes I need to make or did they do away with this ?
well - I was able to get this to finally work using the same registry changes as before on WM5.
Question:
Is it still safe to use internet sharing on WM6.1 without sprint finding out you are using the phone as modem and charging the $40? ( i rarely use it)

maybe.
or you can a,lways find a good wifi sharing program that hacks past that and those are untraceable.

my location only updates when a wifi network is near and found, but it must not be connected to.. its strange somehow, i know. but if a wifi network is near, it works like a charm.
As far as i have tried, you don't even need to have a wifi network near, you just have to have wifi turned on. It's actually quite a bother!!
What i have done is disable my location (i got the cab from Dutty) and just select the city manualy. I don't move around too much so it's not a problem

hm strange, it only works for me (on different roms) if i have wifi networks around me and not, if i only activated wifi.
but doesnt matter.. its strange like it is.
MyLocation may be recovered (by design) using GSM BTS position triangulation or Wi-Fi or GPS. Looks like Manila is able to use only Wi-Fi
Please note that GoogleMaps works even if wifi is disabled (of course with come data connection for example GSM+ActiveSync).
So, if GoogleMaps can work, why Manila is not able to find MyLocation with GSM+AS?
Current behaviour makes not able to synchronize MyLocation (including my location weather) using for example a cradle connected to PC.
I hope there will be some fix for manila.
This is a well known issue with a lot of the latest builds. Unfortunately for My Location to work you need to have wifi turned on, even if you are not using it. Simply done though. Just turn on wifi but do not connect to any wifi networks then update weather using GPRS. It should now work. Then turn off wifi once you are finished

... because earlier versions of manilla doesn't have MyLocation feature
Does someone know, does that issue appear on source devices from which OS components are took (ie HD2)?
I have the same prob. updated radio but that didn't work. I tried the suggestion on the wifi and it works fine! Although I was connected to my wifi network. I think it just needs to have the wifi on.
but why does it need that wifi? can't someone fix this? ( i know i ask quite a lot)
Since our roms are took from another devices, are users of Leo experience the same issue?
I would also like to use My Location over data connection and I've already created a thread in the "Blackstone General" section ("Possible Manila My Location fix??") nobody is able to give me an answer though
I'm also interested if this behaviour also occurs on HD2

MOD EDIT - No need for 2 threads running on same issue. Thread in link above closed
MOD EDIT - Thread moved. As much as I would like to see this issue resolved, I feel it would be better suited in General forum instead of the Rom Development forum
And there's a 3rd one here.

I had the Wifi sharing cab with my old 6.1 windows mobile on my touch pro 2 which worked great. I got the upgrade to 6.5 through T-Mobile USA and when I installed the wifi internet sharing cab that I got from here, I cannot find it anywhere on the phone to use it. Any ideas?

Why would you need to install anything? T-Mobile puts it on the phone for you.

The OP is refering to WiFi internet sharing, not blue tooth or USB.
So it's not in the 6.5 version? I swear on 6.1, I had wifi sharing built in. HTC menus and all, no need to install a cab.
Wow, I don't see it. What the hell am I remembering then!?!?! I remember HTC menus and setting up my wifi network to share, password and all. All without WMwifirouter.
You mean this one?
I think this is what you're looking for....
oh wow, I just checked my screenshots of my cab list from previous and there it is. Wow, for months now, I've been telling people that the T-Mobile version comes with tethering right out of the box!

True. Well it's good to know that I have a backup to WMWifirouter, if that ever "fails" again...
How did you get 6.5 from t-mobile.I just got my tp2 and it came with 6.1, and should I upgrade now or wait. i like to wait to make sure people are not having problems with new updates before i bite

Are there any pros/cons to upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5?
PROS: New lock screen, new start menu, visual voicemail, search phone function, some minor improvements throughout, apparently a better radio for more exact service signal, better/faster GPS/cellular triangulation, weather on home page, weather based on GPS location
CONS: Greater risk for errors with installed programs (see services.exe thread), new start menu, you have to hard reset to upgrade, slightly more RAM usage
Thanks for the info and links. I already upgraded and I like it, now Ican play with it some more

all settings should be under the settings tab. If your not using sense I forget what the other stock UI is called. then just go to settings. and it should take you to everything and you should see connections on there. if you want I can post screen shots to help you out just let me know if you still have trouble finding it. Took me a while to find it too.
Hi All,
I know we have many tools to achive this like: "NoData" and "TD2 Tools". But I do not want to use these Tools.
They are good tools. NoData will disable Data/GPRS, but Can't make WiFi on demand. When the TD2 Tool can do both (or can give me what I want), but I do not want use this ONLY for this purpose (I am not using other services of this tool).
So This is how I want:
I disable the data connection by Settings -> Connections -> Advanced and select "My Work Network" instead of GPRS/Internet connection. So this prevents me to use the GPRS Connection.
Now Can one of you suggest how should I edit the settings of the "My Work Network" to use WiFi when demand? Or is there any Registry edit that will make WiFi on Demand instead of Connect when phone is used
Edit: For Solution Goto POST#15 in this thread or Here.
Thanks.

If GPRS is disabled, wouldn't it automatically roll over to WiFi?
Set both to Internet and disable GPRS from registry.
Also have a read here.

Disable/Enable GPRS from registry is tricky than Connection Settings Change. So I will prefer the connection change option.
And reg. Set both to internet.. What does this mean? How can set WiFi to OnDemand? I think on the Stock 6.5.3 Ondemand wifi option is not there like it used to be in 6.5 stock roms. (Like WiFi will be on only if you use it, but in 6.5.3 if you get device to ON mode from standby it activate/connect)

I think if you delete your current modem settings and create a new one w/o any server info, that will permanently disable GPRS and make WiFi your default.
TD2 Tools could set your WiFi on during standby.
Thanks again for reply. I am good with NOT using GPRS. So no worry on that side.
I only need assitance to set/configure WiFi so that it will be used/connected on demand (I dont want this to be connected any time I use my phone).
Note: I dont want WiFi to connect/start when I get my phone from standby to ON state, it should connect to WiFi ONLY When any application connect to Internet.
I hope my question is clear now
Thanks.
Any pointers???
In TD2 Tools 3 there is an option called "WiFi On Demand Service" which should turn on WiFi (if available) instead of GPRS when needed. Unfortunately this feature is disabled with the ROM I'm running, so I don't know if it works..did you try it?

Hi, Thanks for reply and if you see my first post, I know it is possible using TD2 Tools and also using NoData.
But I dont want to use the TD2 tools only for this feature , I know it is a GREAT tool for TD2 .
So is there any registry change or some other?

Yes this is one of the biggest "issues" that i have using the new 6.5.5 ROMS.....I used to love the "On demand" feature of 6.5......... just hope someone can fiure it out eventually.

Hello Experts, any clue/pointer?
Here is the solution
New ROM 6.5 with Manila 2.5 lacks this feature which you can not turn on with GAZ TD2 Tools. But here is the solution. Install the cab and enjoy your Wi-Fi on demand feature.

Hi Guys,
Need help on this. I flash my device every now and then and sometimes on 1st boot the device updates the dat and time to what it actually is. but sometimes it doesnt.
i use this reg but it doesnt work anymore:
Code:
;SET TIME FROM CELL TOWER
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"NITZEnable"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting]
"ShowNITZPage"=dword:1
i do not know what package i include or remove which causes this to happen.
can someone kindly help me out in fixing this.. i want my device to get the correct dat and time on 1st boot.
MOD EDIT: i merged two threads of yours that you started for the same problem.
This is what works for me (I don't even remember what the first key is; it's probably not important-the nitz one is the one that matters):
Code:
;*** Phone startup settings ***
;=================================
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\UMTS]
"OpMode"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"NITZEnable"=dword:00000001
You need to have your SIM in during boot-up for it to update the time. I then run a mortscript during second bootup that changes nitzenable to 0, so active sync doesn't run all the time.
Code:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",0)

to be honest i dont really know
does my location work for you or not?
on my phone my location works over all connections
so when i flash my rom i get pass the oobe(here it doesnt set time and date)
after oobe i get to enter my pincode and that takes me to the sense homescreenw ith the clock
then i get connectionsetup automaticly
when connectionsetup is finished it makes a connection to download the weather for my location and it also gives me date and time and timezone
i think it uses gprs as if i dont do the connectionsetup it doesnt update the time
but it could be the weather data contains those info when its requested
hope you have something usefull about this info

well... i found out that this is truely network depended.... my ROM usually set time and date... but occasionally when i flash a new rom of mine it doesn't set.. so i thought, [email protected]#*^~!!! NO!! So, what i did was a hard reset to see if this is true... and the very next time it does set time and date!!! So it has nothing to do with oobe or time zone auto fix.... at least not to me...
