Hi,
When i have sent an MMS, the G ikon i still showing. Normale on Qtek 8310 i kan remove it by pressing the red button, but how do I do it on Qtek 8500?
The G icon is telling you that you have GPRS coverage. If you mean that your GPRS connection is still open after sending an MMS you can close it from the commanager clicking on button 4.
EDIT: To open the Comm Manager Click Start > Comm Manager or from Home Screen, simply highlight the area where the Operator name is shown and click. Then click button 4 do disconnect GPRS/EDGE.
Addition :: The "G" will show up in two places on your title bar. The big G in the center simply shows that you have a GPRS connection available. When you actually connect, a small "G" will show up in the right corner with your strength indicator. That means that you are actually connected to GPRS.
If you are worried about still being connected, then the small G is the one to look for.
absolutely correct...
Is there a way to get rid of the big "G" icon? It's consuming precious space on the title bar and I know that I always have GPRS coverage anyway... :?

Does anybody know the registry setting for switrching off the time in the top bar ? I used to be able to do it with Battery pack Pro pwer alert but it will not do it any more
maybe this would help?

I tried this but it is not working on WM5
schrub that! I was not entering it correctly sorry
Ok ok I now have another problem. When you remove the time / date it shifts the Gicon and the wireless icon to the right. It moves them so much only half the wirless levle icon is showing. I have search through the WIKI on registry hacks but I cannot find the hack for the position of these icons.
Hi.
My battery drains very quickly in my area (HSDPA). But if i force GSM then the battery lasts two or three days and i only need hsdpa 3 or 4 times by day, for example
20010-04-20 (V2.9)
1) The combo box that stores the model keeps the value when the program is restarted.
2) Fixed problems with owner names starting/ending with spaces.
3) other minor bugs
2009-11-27 (V2.8)
1) Compatibility with new Bluetooth Widcomm stack (HTC Touch Pro2, HTC Touch HD2, etc);
2) Compatibility to switch band with HTC Touch HD2
3) Compatibility to switch band with Toshiba TG01
4) switching is faster because now I dont turn radio off, just unregister and register from network. No need to enter automatically PIN code too.
2007-09-25 (V2.4.2)
Compatibility with Kaiser
Changes in 1.2.3:
Fix a bug in 1.2.1-1.2.1. Auto mode didnt work properly and switch delay action too.
Changes in V1.2.2 :
Some GSM operators intercepts http not found requests and redirects to help pages. It can cause unknown effects on bandswith who tries to look for the version number in the response stream.....
Changes in 1.2.1:
Buffer overrun bug in devices with very long radio manufacturer name (caused bandswitch fall).
Bandswith now detects if is running on WM5 or WM6 so now only switch twice if switching from GSM to UMTS band in WM6 devices. So now one only version for WM5 and WM6
Dual line support with two pin codes.
If the password(s) is/are incorrect the device will sound and vibrate and show Pin Page.
Pin enable user: remember to enter pin(s) again after reinstall.

And with gsm i can use real mail but with hsdpa the battery is empty in 5 or 6 hours. I am looking a tool to switch between gsm and hsdpa in today screen. I know that i can do it in phone/options/band but it's very boring. Can someone help me?. If now i will write a little program (today plugin) and i will post it.
Thanks

as far as i know nothing like this exists
Cool Idea.
This is shouldnt be that difficult to achieve...
Use SetHSDPA.exe and link it to the Wireless Manager today plugin. Then everytime you tap the wireless plugin it then turns on/off the HSDPA functionality?
AFAIK band selection can be done changing a setting in registry, so this can be done with mortscript.
1. google SKSchema... it's a program which will allow you to do this (it's not free, but i think the price is awesome for what you can do with it), and download it.
2. Download these scripts that someone else made...
3. Drop the scripts in the \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\sScripts directory
4. Go to your phone's Settings, and choose Menu
5. Scroll down and select any of the new scripts (I am personally using the toggle script).
**alternatively, you can assign a button to it
***additionally, I use this program's Soft Reset feature to automatically soft reset my phone at 5 in the morning to make sure that when i get up in the morning the phone had a chance to reboot and has a fresh start...
hope this helps!

Does this solution allow you to switch between 'U' and 'G' on the fly? Meaning it does not need to close one connection to achieve the other and vice-versa.
as far as i can tell from the script it turns on flight mode, toggles between 3g/Edge, depending on which one you had originally when the script was run (by changing the registry settings), and then turning flight mode off...
your phone will search for signal as it normally would...
the whole process takes about 20-25 seconds.
Give skschema a try. They have a trial, so you can try before you get it if you decide to get it. There is also a Today plugin, although i've never used it, so i can't give any input as to how good it is.
in my experience with the phone, any time you change the band selection the phone goes into flight mode
The program is finished and working
Ok. The program is finished.
1) Put it in rom.
2) Create a shortcut and put it in \windows\startup directory.
3) Then you will see a circle icon at botton.
. White circle means Auto mode.
. Green circle means GPRS mode (2g).
. Red circle means UMTS/HSDPA mode(3g).
Tapping this icon a window is showed and you can click one of the next buttons:
auto: Sets auto mode.
GSM: Sets gsm mode.
UMTS: Sets 3g mode.
Close: closes the program.
Then the registry key \\SOFTWARE\\OEM\\UMTS\\OpMode is changed and the radio is reseted. And thats all.
Enjoy it...

That is not necessarily true. If you go into the Band tab to change the selection, it does not need to go into flight mode. It simply disconnects and reconnects with the new selection.
new option
Hi. I ve added a new option.
To avoid forget to switch back to gprs after use hsdpa, when you tap on UMTS appears a dialog about "limit time" with options:
no: No limit
1, 5, 30, 60, 120: After x minutes the system switch back to gprs.
There was a problem cleaning the notification when the app exits......
New release....
Thnx loads. I'll give it a try.
Thanks
danielherrero,
Great job, it's working on my 8525. It's just what I needed thanks.
You' re wellcome....
Thank you. Going to put it on my 8525 as they roll out 3G here in the US I think this will come in very handy.
Take Care!
Weekend App
Well done!!! Thanks...This app works great.
This is my weekend app. As soon as the weekend starts I put the phone into GSM mode only. Battery life is far better. I don't need UTMS on the weekends....when i do....2 clicks and I'm in UTMS...2 more and I'm back to GSM.
I love this plugin! cant get easier to switch auto -> umts, and umts -> auto! thanks!!
This might be a very stupid question, but I can't find an answer. For some days an new icon appeared on the top bar " e" See picture.
Can anyone explain me what it means and how I can get rid of it?
thx for your help
That means Edge, the (American?) high-speed data network.
It's a faster alternative to GPRS. Where are you?
(wrong forum, I think )
Thx aul, but I am in Belgium.
Wikipedia is your friend...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Data_Rates_for_GSM_Evolution
I know it is Edge now, but the question is why did it pop-up only a few days ago. I guess it came after I installed one of the Vista roms and how can I get rid of it? I am not using GPRS or Edge at all and it is only taken space at the top bar.
if you really want get rid of the icon, maybe you can refer my experience.
I'm Chinese, user of China Mobile, I chosed to closed the operation of GPRS in China Mobile, no matter the G icon or E icon were disappeared.

it takes no space at top bar, isn't it.. It just replace the other one.. If you use wifi, this will change to wifi network.
Standard Icon is 3 icon at top bar. and you have still 3.. So that is the same, isn't it?
Hi, I'm a noob when it comes to smart phone setup, but saw the success of people here getting setup on t mobile with the Sonys Z5's so thought I'd give it a try (got an Z5c E5823 from HK).
Anyway, setup went smoothly, except for some reason under settings/wireless & networks/more/mobile networks/ I don't have the option to enable/disable mobile network traffic. It isn't that the row is grayed out, it isn't there at all. There are only four choices in this menu (Data Roaming, Preferred Network Type, Access Point Names, and Service Providers).
Anyone know how to get this selection available? Or, is it in a different place maybe?
Thanks!
Try Settings/"Data usage", it shall be in first row.
Wow, thanks! We are now rocking on t-mobile. No idea why I was so hung up on it being in the other menu.
You can add it to the quick settings buttons (pull down buttons)
When the buttons are shown there is a little (looks like a pencil, with some dots under it), this is the editor for the quick settings panel.
Just drag the Mobile Data button down.
Multi windows options not showing on PIE (S9+). After tapping the spacer icon the options are not showing (see screenshots). Any suggestions?
The multi windows options are explained here: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00079048/
Yes I notice it. U have to do it the other way... Not sure why they remove it
They changed it a bit..
When your in recent apps there is a symbol that appears at the top of the app. Pressing that will show a menu, one of the options is "open in split screen view".
This is how you now access the feature. I attached a screen shot of the settings app showing the respective symbol. Yellow arrow points to the symbol you want to press (symbol will vary pending on the app).

Thanks for this. I was slightly confused at first, it might be easier for people to understand to say that the app's icon appears at the top of the app in the recents screen, and tapping that icon gives you the options for the app, like split screen, pop-up view etc ?
I want to creat a 'icon pair on the home screen' that option is missing from the new menu. Thats my real question. Sorry about asking it in two steps
You can creat an icon pair in the edge screen but it will not appear on the home screen. Any ideas?

I tried it and I couldn't get it to work either, though I haven't used the feature before so I never created an app pair on my home screen. It maybe something they changed and now is (or with one UI maybe only ever was) available from the edge panel.
Update - Checking the users manual (for our phone with Android Pie) indicates the only way to natively create an app pair now is via the Edge Panel.

There is an apk called split-screen creator in the play store that allows you to create shortcuts that can be placed on the home screen.
