There is any app to quick acces to dial connections?
I must to: start, settings, connections, connections, manage existing connections and then select it, tap/hold and connect!
Thanks
If you get a today screen launcher, you can just make a shortcut to it. Spb pocket plus comes with a link to it as a default
I know SPB and use it, but only can go to: start, settings, connections, connections
then I must tap: manage existing connections and then select it, tap/hold and connect!
I think there is a app that can manage connections!
Thanks
as above.. i dont want some google maps or weather refresh to kill my wallet !!
any program or tweak to totally disappear data no matter how often programs call for it?
much appreciated
Search this forum for an application called NoData.
Airplane mode?
Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503131
Airplane mode disables everything
oh...since im using prepaid services, is it a must to install the nodata tweaks?
aren't there any data on/off selection under the default settings on the phone?
that is to say, if i did not off the data connections, the phone will automatically engage gprs or sort to update weather and maps which will in turn kill all the credits in my prepaid without me realizing? that's scary...
bsb tweaks let's you disable data connections. Just tried it and when trying to establish a connection it gives me an error telling me it's not possible to go online.
so the tweaks works in another words? i will only be using wifi to go online with hd2..
Soooo i have been playing with my HD2 too much and now my mobile internet usage is close to my monthly limit.
I switched off weather, facebook & microsoft exchange active sync and switched off data services to Off in wireless controls under settings. But somehow the phone is still initializing data connection and have data coming in/out.
Is there anyway to turn off data services completely??
There is an answer for this one (one of the possible ways) on HTC official suport page under FAQ. Sorry but i can't post an external link due to spam prevention.
Kill one letter from your providers accessname. Like vodafone.de = vodafone.d If you need the access later, add the letter again.

That will give you error messages all the time though.
Go:
Windows Key
Settings
Wireless Controls
Menu (at the bottom right)
Connections
Advanced (Tab)
Select Networks (Button)
Then change "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using:" to "My Work Network"
or try this one wich is working perfectly for me
go to Settings - Wireless Controls-[put 3G and Data Connection Off]
then open BsB Tweaks-Menu-Data Connection-Tick Disable in here
then restart the phone and you never use data again appart of you WiFi

Use Modaco Nodata, its a free cab you can download of its site here
http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility-nodata/
On my Diamond, I had a handy little application called NoData which deactivated data connections so that I didn't get charged for using mobile internet by mistake.
Is there any way to do the same thing on the HD2?
Thx.
I am also looking for an app that can do this.
I'm off abroad in a couple of weeks and I am already having nightmares about the bill I may have when I return if I can't find a way to deactivate the data!

Just use the same app
Grtz,
Degake
there is a app out there called...................nodata
oh, are you sure it works on the HD2?
nodata works fine but i use bsb tweaks to disable data connections manually before crossing the border so i can enable it just in case
Since I have no data plan with my carrier i disable connections not referring to WIFI alltogether, I just go to Settings, connections, menu, connections, advanced, select network, and put "work network" (or something, I have it in italian) to both.

there is a vey simple way to deactivate the data connection: long press the on/off key and you will get a little menu: one of the menu items is deactivate data connection. Press it and it's done.

That terminates it, but it doesn't stop it coming back on when an app tries to use it.
Is there a reason that no-one has suggested airplane mode?
no cab needed, the answer is on the HTC site:
How do I disable my 3G/GPRS Data Connection?
Follow the steps below to ensure that your phone will never connect to a GPRS/3G Data Connection.
1. Go to Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Connections > Connections
2. Tap Add a new modem connection > then under Select a modem, select Celluar Line (GPRS) > Name the Connection "Offline" >Tap Next.
3. In the Access point name text box input "Offline" and tap Next.
4. On the next page tap Finish.
5. On the second Connections Menu, tap Manage existing connections and select "Offline" then click OK.
Re-enable the data connection if you want to connect to the internet via 3g/Edge.
1. From the home screen, slide to the Settings tab, Wireless Controls > Data Connection.
2. Select your Country and Operator
3. Tap OK.
4. On the subsequent screen, tap Yes.
The phone will automatically configure itself with the appropriate settings.
Note: When disabling the connection in this way, your phone may report errors when trying to connect to "Offline." The error is caused by the phone being unable to connect to a data source due to the settings, and is normal.

This is what i want to know. How can we auto disconnect data connection after certain period of time. For example if i set up my device to update weather every hour using EDGE, it wont disconnect automatically but i want it to auto disconnect once the weather is updated regardless of i notice it or not. How do we achieve that?
Hello, I have installed the modaco no data app and it works a treat.

disabled data but now cant connect to wifi
Hi,
I've disabled my data connection using the HTC mehtod but now when I've connected to wifi, I keep on getting an error message say page cannot be displayed and there is a problem with my connection?
Can someone please tell me if I've done something wrong? and if this is suppose to happen?
Thanks,
Hi Everyone,
can anybody code me a Mobile Internet on/off Widget for my LauncherPro ?
Can't find anyrhing in the market...
Greetings
APN droid
switch pro
that's just too, there are loads in the market.
Unfortunately most of them won't work for a reason ( I think it's a common problem of 2.2) - it's the typical behavior, tried extended controls and apn droid and neither of them are working correctly. Due to the renaming of the apn it looses for 2-3 sek the mobile connection and then it comes back again on sense and non-sense roms. The only data switch which is working for me is the one from the cm kernel/rom.
Agreed, most of the widgets out in the market don't work well. Also, if the mobile internet is on and these widgets just change the APN, won't the battery be consumed in 'looking' for the right internet connection?
The closest I got to a solution for this is not a widget, but a 2-step process. From LauncherPro, go to Add -> Shortcuts -> Activities -> Settings -> Wireless & Networks
This would add the Wireless and Networks widget to your homescreen. Every time you need to toggle your connection, press the widget which will take you to the Wireless & Network settings page, and from there, you can tick/untick mobile internet connection.
I am going to ask fede of launcher pro if he can consider adding them as a launcher pro + widget.
