Can anyone point me to s GPRS Monitor that I think is available somewhere on this thread? I cannot seem to find it.
Thanks,
**** Campbell
not 100% sure which you mean as in if you are looking for a spc thread or a spc gprs monitor
a good way to search is to in your case type in
GPRS AND Monitor
when you add the and you only get threads with both the terms in it
and when you use search you can narrow it down so you dont search the forums of other HTC devices you dont own
this is the most popular monitor i think

hey guys heres abit of unusal question? (to be honest i dont think any of us ask any usual questions )
anyway what im trying to do is find out if there is a way to force a pda when its trying to connect to the internet to first check if internet is avaible through active sync (cradle or usb cable) then to check if WIFI is avaible then if thats not avaible to use gprs - but to use gprs as a last resort.
so the way it will work is an application needs to connect to the internet it first is forced to check for a connection through active sync if thats not avaible then to see if there can be a wifi conenction established if that fails then to connect to gprs and in the order.
i was hoping i could find what scrpits are used when the connections are established and then make a script to run the will force the device to do this.
Or even if there is a reg edit that I can do that will allow me to get this done? (would regedits be possable for this)
Id appericate your thoughts on this guys?
p.s il also go post this in the genaral networking section of the forum, as i would like to do this across board on any device (wm5/wm6)
well- i can solve half that...
you don't need a script or anything for the cradle side of things- just set activesync's Connections (File->Connection Settings->) and Uncheck "allow wireless connection on device when connected to desktop"
This wil force the device to use the activesync connection for the data.
Now- if only we could make it do that on wifi...
For what it's worth- I use NoData whenever I'm home and using my Wifi connection. It's a minor step to make sure I'm not burning up the data dollars- and the wifi is fast as heck.
dude thanks for the reply lol loveeeeee that cat you got one bad ass *****!
yeh i know about the active sync side of things,
I know it sounds silly and "why do you want to do that" kind of a question,
but im going to be supporting alot of devices and having something preform this task in that order would be a great help to me.
I dont think il get the answer for it, but hey this is XDA DEVEPLOERS!!!!!!
and mighter things have been done on this website by the users!!!!!
peace out
Is it possible to use ICS with wifi connection instead of cellular connection? Would be useful for a makeshift wireless adapter if your regular NIC or wireless NIC fails.
It seems that even if I have a wifi connection already going and then I launch ICS and connect, it still tries to dial out and use the cellular connection. You would think if it can share cellular data it could share wifi data just as easily but maybe im missing something.
Back in the early days of WiFi internet sharing the private interface was changed to WiFi with a manual registry edit. It might be possible to change the public interface to USB instead of defaulting too the cellular radio. It would probably take a fair amount of troubleshooting, but I'd think it would be possible. I think the entries were at HKLM\Comm\ConnectionSharing. Might be a starting point...
Search for WMWifiRouter
WiFiRouter
WiFiRouter works by making your ppc into a virtual access point. Then you can share the internet through it.
Last time I looked however, the author had withdrawn the program from circulation at version 0.91. There must be some problems with it because the author indicated that he would release a new version once he ironed out some bugs. If it is not back in distribution yet, you might be still able to find it on a torrent site. If not, PM me and I will send you the cab. Some of the cab collections at ppcgeeks ftp have it inside too. One good collection to check is Alex's.
I have used it and it works.

wmwifirouter is not what he's looking for. That is still using your phones internet. He wants to see how he could use the phone as a Network card, using the wifi connection, as oppossed to the sprintpcs connection.
I too would be very interested in this happening, if anyone knows of a way please tell.
ok, but why ??
Why would you actually want to do this anyway ??? I will look into it but it makes no sense when a USB WiFi dongle is $30 or so and does not run your phone down to use it, why would you want to use your phone as a very expensive USB WiFi card ??? Maybe I am missing some golden benefit ????
I dont get it either, but he did say in an emergency if your wifi went out.
Thank you for the responses.
Yes, it would be useful if your wireless nic went out (or regular nic for that matter) just to have something to use for the moment. Or maybe you brought your computer to a friends house and hes out of ports or you dont want to run 50ft cable to his kitchen table
But the titan has wireless, it has internet sharing, why doesnt the wireless show up in the list of available networks? I'm not saying its an all important feature but it would be yet another cool thing your phone could do.
i looking to use my mogul as a wifi access point (sharing Spint Vision thru wifi)
i tryed the procedure to mod the registry to enable it but i cant get it to work.
anyone know the exact procedure for the mogul
btw i also checked out WMWifiRouter...looks like it's no longer free
I also wanna know
Look the idea is simple. So where is the phone ICS telling it to use the celluar line and not allowing the option of the wifi?
Pls any one contact me. Its a cool feature for a phone

I bought software called Walking Hotspot, which essentially turns my Mogul/Titan into something like a Mifi, sharing my cellular data with my laptop. Otherwise known as tethering.
I only use it for emergencies because I am not sure if Sprint can tell that I am tethering. I believe if Sprint detects unauthorized tethering they will charge 4 cents per kilobyte of data .. which is very harsh!

I have this problem that my galaxy s won't always connect back to the 3g network when it becomes available again.
Right now I have to go into settings and there search for available networks and click on the right one and connect to it.
Shouldnt there be an app somewhere or script that could do this from from the desktop, by widget or icon, to force-connect to the network with id '24005' ?
No problem if it requires root, but do you guys know if this is possible at all?
I too would love to be able to switch network operators with a simple app or script.
An automatic switch based on location would be very useful.

Moving to Q&A
No idea if this is in the right section of the forum, but here's my question:
I'm looking for a smart wireless management app for Android 2.2.2
Main function I'm looking for is the ability to let it automatically switch between WiFi and 3G as soon as signal drops below an exact specified value. Right now I have a fairly fast #G connection on Vodafone NL, but when I'm home I switch to Wifi to save cost. At some spots in my house the 3G connection is way faster then my Wifi signal, so I want it to atomatically choose the fastest connection. Anyone knows about an app that can do this?
And if there is no app like that out there, anyone willing to take a shot at developing one
Many thanx, DM

Uhhm... thx for the link, but not really what I'm looking for. It sounds very complicated to install, and even more complicated to tweak. Isn't there any simple app out there that chooses the connection with best send/receive qualities?
Admin, please close thread, posted it somewhere else.
Maybe what I'm looking for doesn't exist or maybe it does, I don't know.
I've been on the hunt for a decent app that is like a tech's "dream come true" when it comes to Wifi tools and functionality. I'm not an IT professional or anything, but looking for more than an average "oh look, here's a wifi network" app.
A few apps that I've come across and tried...
Wifi Analyzer
Two of the things I like most about it - the AP list and the signal meter. It also lets me grab a snapshot so I can look at it later.
Wi-Fi Analytics (amped|wireless)
The ap list (WiFi Scanner as it's referred to) is nice but cluttered. Between Wifi Analyzer and this, I'd say both are somewhat the same, though I think Analyzer is better.
Fing
Still playing with it, though it doesn't seem to offer much (unless making an account gives more functions).
Wolf WiFi Pro
Only having used the demo, maybe it has what I'm looking for. The demo alone, though, was a let down.
Of the different apps I've tried (listed or not), some offer similar features such as detecting how many networks are using the same channels, graphs to show signals, etc. That's nice, but seems common enough that it's tossed in there just to say it's a feature, as opposed to being a provided tool in addition to something that other apps don't offer.
What I'm looking for is more or less this... An app that will provide a compact listing of found networks. Constant scanning or manual scanning. Option to log details about the results (date, time, gps location). Function to use found results to generate a 'map' of found networks and if the same network is found in multiple logs, use the different locations to try to form a better fix on where that network is originating from. Once a network is detected, optionally be able to keep a record of it even if it's not being picked up anymore (along with date/time of first finding and date/time and gps location of strongest signal). When viewing the list of found WLAN's, tapping on one won't prompt to connect to it, but instead bring up a page of tools. Miniature signal meter (like Wifi Analyzer does it, rather nice), button to click to connect, button to add notes about the discovered AP, along with information such as security, mac ID (which most seem to provide) and anything else that is possible to show. I dare say, ability to detect what devices (computers or otherwise) are attempting to connect (or are connected) to the AP as well (useful if I want to see if someone is somehow connecting to my network even if it's not showing up in any logs).
Is there anything even remotely close to what I'm describing? Are there any recommend Wifi tool like apps that I just haven't come across yet? When looking on Google's Play store, most of the apps seem to be like practice apps that more or less do the same thing as using the built in Wifi connection manager.
Using a T989 with Jellybean (rooted, stock OS or whatever).
You might find something here that is describing your needs. But what your describing my be a little too advanced for android.

Thanks, but already saw that topic. I read that and a couple of others before making this one in case what I was asking for was more or less already answered. What I'm describing may sound complex but I'm sure it's really just a matter of designing it to act in certain ways vs the "easy route." ie, it's easy to make it so tapping on a found network will ask if you want to join the network. Heck, if that's what I wanted, then I could just use the built in manager. Using one of the tools, I did discover that the wireless I'm running was on the same channel as a couple of others nearby. So I changed the routers two use a couple of different channels that were showing as empty.
Just comes down to wanting the best from each app that happens to have a good feature or two and packing it all together in one solid app.
