Blocking Data On HD

I recently got the HD, but since I live in Canada I figured it wasn't worth it to get a data plan (Can only use EDGE and prices are outrageous). As such, I'm wondering if there are any apps or methods to block data.
I would still want to be able to use wifi for internet and such, but stop EDGE from working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Goto the Comm Manager and turn Data Connection off? Don't know what that does to wifi which has a seperate on/off? That failing, could you not disable data from your operator?

what works for me is to set networks for automatic internet access to "company network":
Start - settings - connections tab - connections icon - extended tab - select networks - automatic internet access => set to company network
I have a german device so had to guess english names ... be warned.
if you make the change and try to update weather data you should get an error.
Set it back to your phone provider should make it connect (and charge you) again.

I called my carrier and asked for data transfer to be blocked.

Start - Settings - Connections
Tap the Connections icon
There you might see an entry for your mobile provider - in my case I see
"Vodafone Live"
- Add a new modem
- Edit my proxy server
- Manage existing connections
Tap 'Manage existing connections'
You will see a list of modems (in my case I see 'Vodafone Live')
Tab and hold the modem
Choose delete

Anyone tried MoDaCo's NoData utility?

dwnload tweaks 3.3. There is an option to disable one or al of your data connections.
You need to install compact framework 3.5 first (google it if unsure).

X1 on Vodafone - Internet Settings

Hi all,
Just thought I'd share this info in case others are having the same problems...I got my X1 on Vodafone last week, but was having some problems using the Internet with some apps, i.e. SPB mobile shell, Tomtom, Facebook Panel and Yahoo Go.
Basically, the Internet worked fine with Vodafone Live and Vodafone Find & Go but not with the other programs, i.e. when I was trying to update the weather in SPB Mobile Shell or use the Facebook panel.
I looked through the settings and it looks as though it connects to the Internet via a Proxy server (Vodafone's) for some reason....so I found out how to get around it.
Got to:
- Settings (in start menu)
- Connections (tab)
- Connections (icon)
- Advanced (tab)
- Select Networks
- Click on New
- Call it MyGPRS
- Click on the Modem Tab
- In the first option, call it Vodafone wap
- Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
- Click Next
- In the first option, Access point name = wap.vodafone.co.uk
- Click next
- Username = wap
- Password = wap
- Leave Domain blank
- Click Finish
- Click OK twice
- Go back to "Select Networks"
- In the top drop down, select the new connection you created (MyGPRS)
- Click ok
You should now be able to use all the Apps, but the vodafone live services dont work....unless you change your connection back to My ISP. I can now use BBC iPlayer (only over WiFi) though.
Anyone else experienced this problem? Can you shed any light on the situation for me please!
Thanks, and I hope this helps someone

Me too having this problem,i can't access vodafone live via gprs. Can someone please post the CORRECT gprs settings that we can work easily like normal phones....pleaseee

i was able to access vodafone live but its the text version, i wouldnt have bothered its just that vodafone have given me 1 months free tv package which im keep to check out.
i must have removed something deep in the phone like a dll or another type of file.

I have an untouched rom and dont really mess with my X1 but my live buttons dont work they just take me to the gogle homepage and thats it?

You need to use My ISP if you want access to the full Vodafone Live. You will also need to make sure that the user-agent in Opera is set to the Vodafone one and not IE or full Opera.

Hi, how to connect internet via wifi on sonyericsson xperia x1

BlackBerry Connect Blocks Internet Access To All Other NonBlackberry WM6 Applications

I just installed BlackBerry Connect v4.0.0.104 on my Raphael and it works great. I am recieving my mails and can browse the net through the Internet Explorer but all other applications which require internet access such as Opera, Weather, IMs, etc. have stopped working.
I went to Settings -> Connection -> Connections and it was empty even though my phone showed it was connect to EDGE (small E on top of the signal bars). I then created a new connection with my carrier's APN settings and connected it. I was then able to use all the other applications but the blackberry service got suspended.
From what I understand the BlackBerry Connect application connects directly to the blackberry server without creating a dialer in Settings -> Connection -> Connections so even though its already connected the non-blackberry applications think there is no connection.
Secondly if I create a new connection it disconnects the blackberry connection.
I want to know if anyone has figured out a solution for this. Is there a way to create a proxy to link to the blackberry service or something?
Thanks in advance.

You should be able to enable multiple simultaneous APN connections. I have done this on my Kaiser and use BlackBerry Connect. I must admit though I have never been able to use IE over the BBC APN connection when using the 'BlackBerry Browser'. I assumed this just set some Proxy settings?

I apologize for being so hasty. I tried your suggestion and it works even without 3G. Thanks.
I thought that simultaneous connections were not possible with just EDGE but I was wrong.

Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\RIL\OperatorContex
There you will find several numbers. E.g. 26202 for Vodafone in Germany.
The number is a combination of MCC / MNC so 262 02. You might find you operator in this list:
http://surfio.de/info/mcc_mnc/mcc_mnc_liste_6.html
What happens is if your operator is not in this list there will be a key created with no contend. I inserted in there by copying from one of the others:
GPRSContextNumber = 3
UMTSContextNumber = 3
This is the source for the value of NetworkContexts in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Cellular\RIL\
Just set the Contexts value to 3 and delete the NetworkContexts entry. It will be created from the source above with the value 3.
I am so happy that I finally found that out. That was such a pain for a long time. Hope that helps some others as well.
Thanks to luiggi who gave me the final hint in his thread:

But cannot connect to the net. The phone tries for a while then shows "Could not connect due to unknown reasom"
Than I check for settings again, the password I entered had automatically changed to a 12 letter word.
Please help me configuring windows mobile.

try removing the proxy settings.
only use > manage existing connections > name should be mtnl

go to coonection -->gprs authantication-->select mtnl connection name
and select authantication type as PAP

I'll tell you by tomorrow, I had it working successfully before my last hard reset.

Hi, Thanks alot for the setting you provided! I did the setting for delhi mtnl prepaid and it works like a charm I followed exactly as you mentioned and changed mum to del and used (gprsppsdel) not (gprsmtnldel)..
But there is no 3G connectivity. In the cellular network (on my HTC HD2), I could find only MTNL GPRS (there is no option to choose 3g). Anyways, I am atleast happy with the gprs connectivity as I can update my mail box and weather report. Thanks alot....

Hi Ruzan, you should make your setting available outside this forum (I dont know how...) but I see lots of people desperately looking for it....Day before yesterday I changed flashed my rom, and I google search for two days, and finally I stumbled upon your setting today and to my surprise, it was your post that help me earlier too...Thanks again
