where the hell is my gprs monitor??? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

i recently installed the official imate 1.72 rom, but i cant disconnect my gprs unless i hold the red end call button for a few seconds,as where i used to be able to hit the icon that said gprs next to my start bar on my rom before this.., is there anyway to restore that being i dont want my gprs on always it drains the battery so quickly?

try this litle program
you could try this, set it to automatically disconnect after 10 mins and give you the option to disconnect manually again

how do i install this file?

I am using the Qtek 1.72 ROM and GPRS can be disconected by tapping the reception-bars in the top menu bar on Today.
GPRS monitor is available in some Extended Roms, also in my ExtRom that you will find in this same sub-forum

Stop the pop-ups!!

Hello all,
I am wondering if perhaps someone knows how to stop ALL the pop-up balloon msgs in WM2003? I there is a fix to get rid of the annoying battery low pop-up, but I want them all gone. None of them are of any use to me - the title bar icons do the job just fine!
I am especially starting to hate the "can't connect to GPRS" message when I am not in an area with good reception the phone tries to automatically check my mail...
Thanks,
xnappo
there is a regestry tweak to remove that anoying battery low pop up. search around the main site not the forum and you will find it.
Yeah, I know about that one, but I would like to know if there are any registry tweak for the GPRS popups (like can't connect because I am using the phone, can't connect to check email because there is no GPRS signal - check settings etc.
Regards,
Chris
Stop GPRS connection popups
Has anyone found a way to stop the popup balloons when the device goes in and out of service or tries to connect when it is out of service?
It is annoying to try to read offline content in AvantGo or Mobile favorites and have the balloon pop-ups appear on as it tries to connect to get other content.
In addition to the popup, when my device is out of service and tries to sync my mail it also turns the device on. Since have the device set the keep the backlight on for 5 minutes it is killing my battery life when it turns on in my pocket and I don't know to turn it off.
I am using the XDA1 on T-Mobile w/ WM 2003

GPRS always on

Is there any way to keep the GPRS connection always on? Even when I don't use the red button to block the keypad (which is annoying already ) it still disconnects after a while despite having the "disconnect when idle" set to never.
I've spent an hour looking through the registry but nothing seem to work...
Help?
yes there is not sure what it was called think it may have beenfit4cat tweaker but dont hold me to it

Automatic GPRS disconnect

Hi all, i have my smartflip setup to download my e-mail every hour. Does anyone know how to get the phone to automatically disconnect the connection once its done?
i only ask cos it uses power and that it costs me money if its doing stuff online without me knowning (email is set to 5kb headers only.)
Thanks all
Hi,
GPRS is charged per kb/mb (transfer volume), not per time, so this will not blow your bill.
If you want to change, go to "Settings" (Start-Settings), "Connections", press "Menue" and choose "Advanced" -> New Screen with your connections. Choose "Internet", press "Menue", choose "Options". There you can set redial and disconnect.
Found it ?
got it thanks, the G icon is staying on anyway as it was set to disconnect after 5 mins idle. so i think its direct push mail keep the connection alive. hope it doesn't randomly send out data, except for the times i have asked.

History
Hi
I ve developed a little program to solve a problem I ve many years ago. I use direct push so I need a permanent connection. This is achieved using activesync (direct push) or setting a connection as always on.
PROBLEM TO SOLVE:
Many times a connecion is stablished minutes or hours ago. But it doesnt work correctly. I dont know if the problem is in phone operator system, or in the device or some roms. Simply the connection is corrupted. If you try to suf a web it doesnt work. Clicking "sync" in activesync keeps rolling for ever. So I ve to close the connection manually (hang button long press) and stablishing a connection again. And then all works again
WHAT I SEARCHED AND DIDNT FIND:
1)A program that tries to reach a server (www.google.es) each x minutes. If there is an active connection but cant reach it then kill the connection and stablish it again. The program doesnt download the page content. Simply reach the server so very little data usage (a few bytes each time)
2) very little, no cpu consuming and no resident. Windows should run it each x minutes. Do its job in a few milliseconds and exit.
3) perform its job even if the device is suspended..
4) So I wrote my little program. It works correctly.
5) If the phone is in fly mode then it skip its job
USAGE:
Just install. No need to run it manually. It installs too a little GUI program (ConnectionStateCheckerGUI) to see some statistics (stored in the registry) like number of checks, corrupt connections, last check, etc. You can set the timeout (10 minutes) and server (http://www.google.com) in the registry.
My job needs a 100% safe real time mailing working. This little program guarantees it and maybe there are other people in my situation.
Greetings
Dani
pd: The black background is because of omnia2 skin. In other devices is a tipical white dialog.
OK. gracias nene.
all right!
Nice work buddy, a common problem that bugs a lot of people including you but you decided to do something about it and now we can all be happy.
May I redistribute this on my website?
thanks for that...
Thanks
Sure, you can use, upload, distribute or what you want with it
...and if someone has any suggestion....
First I was going to do icmp ping instead of http get but my phone company (and probably other) has blocked pings....

HiĀ”

Any chance of a Today screen icon? That would be more helpful than having to call the program in order to see connection status.

Good idea but MS says not to use Today plugins because arent used in WM6.5.....
The GUI only reads the statistics stored in the registry and refresh them each 2 seconds...
Dani
Thank you for this nice piece of software.
However I have few questions, right after installing and soft-resetting, then changed web reference to www.google.com and interval to 1 minute, it keeps saying that the Last Result is KO, and only Connection Fixed has the increment.
What makes it odd, is that the connection is actually OK, I can connect to www.google.com via UCWeb and Slick is running too.
This is quite bugging me, however since I only installed it for less than an hour, I'll report again whether my connection would be kept alive permanently or not by this program.

Hi
Please dont remove "http://" because this is used by WinInet to choose the correct destination. Leave http://www.google.com (or any other site but using http://) and it will work again....
Dani
I did, it's http://www.google.com, with the http://
The connection is still KO (though Slick is up and running smoothly)
Does it matter if the GPRS connection has the proxy setup?
And when I tried disconnecting the GPRS, and then use the Check Now, it won't reconnect.
Oh, btw, the Last Check field is always empty.

Yes, for sure is related with GPRS Proxy. Let me take a look at this.....
Andi,
Could you test this version? I ve added support for GPRS proxy. It works in my network but I dont use proxy. Could you try it?
Thanks
Dani,
Sorry for the late reply. I have just finished installing and voila! The Last Check is not empty anymore. I have changed the web reference to http://www.google.com, and interval still to 1 minute, and guess what, now the Last Result is OK!! and Connections OK is now the one who gets the increment. So yes! It works! When WM finished loading up, and when I use the Check Now function, it is now connecting the GPRS automatically.
So I supposed it would close and then reconnect GPRS if ever the connection gets corrupted, right?
Once again, Bravo!
Andi
Just wondering really, if I can get it scheduled for certain time only? Or I can get it stop, perhaps? It would be better than filling in the interval time of 360 minutes every night?
Hi
It seems to work correctly. Tomorrow I will comvert the beta im release amd probably will add period of checking as I did in bandswitch
Dani
Dani,
Just find another thing here.
I did say it does make an automatic connection, it *is* connecting, however, i have just found out, it does *not* end up connected at all.
What I meant by connecting, the antenna icon is having two arrows and the small box with G in it, but it won't be connected at the end of the animation.
The Connection Fix number is added, but since there is no connection in real.
In the end, I still have to use UCWeb or Slick to get connected.
-------edited
Okay, strange enough, I changed the interval to 5 minutes, and after awaited for 2 times trial, it did finally made the connection. Hm.
-------edited again
I did try certain things again. I changed back the interval to 1 minute. Then I tried the following:
* Changed the web reference to http://wap.telkomsel.com (the provider's default wap page), 3 times trial, all failed.
* Changed the web reference to http://www.google.co.id, 2 times trial, finally connected.
* Changed the web reference to http://www.google.com, 3 times trial, all failed.
* Changed the web reference to http://208.67.219.230/ (www.google.com ip address), 3 times trial, very short timed trial, all failed. I supposed it does not accept IP address as a reference?
I'm not an expert in this area, however, it does seem to me that it's related to session time-out thing.
Once the time-out reached, it drops the on-going connection trial. I concluded this because I checked my Data plan's balance, and nothing's to be deducted during the failed session.
So the work around I finally do is to change the registry at HKLM/Comm/ConnMgr/Providers/{myGPRSconn-hash-number}/title_of_conn/AlwaysOn value to decimal 1.
After that, it would get the connection established, even if it seems it doesn't receive any reply from the referred web, get passed all the session time-out variable, until the complete handshake (if this is the correct term).
Andi
wow, that was a deep test. Thanks.
Tomorrow I will try to find a gprs server with proxy to do try/error system

Hello Dani,
It has been some time since you posted here. Are you still supporting or working on this app? If you are I would like to ask a question or two having tried the app on a TMOUS HD2 recently.
A lot of the time the app works exactly as you intended - perhaps 50% or better improvement. But sometimes it is not able to disconnect and re-establish the connection for some reason. I find that it will end up in a near permanent KO result loop.
At these times the data connection is established (H or 3G) but no app can successfully connect (no email, no browser). Your app will continue trying but is not successful.
At such a time if I manually drop the data connection (via Touch X action screen, for example) the connection can be re-established within 15-30 seconds of an app trying for data. It is not immediate - some app will have to ask for a data connection and it takes some 15+ seconds before it can successfully continue.
What I am wondering is how your app is trying to do this and how is the data disconnect of Touch X different. I hope I explain it clearly.
