i was try to install app2sd, i think it didnt worked after all so i decided to stop.. then when i tried to connect, start, data connection, the two arrows arent working anymore... even when i turn on the DATA connection on the status switch, it still wont work.. what do i need to do?
have you used any switch widget, or application to enable/disable data connection?
many of these programs instead of disabling it, they rename the information from your network connection.
hope it helps
check your APNs, they might have changed somehow. let us know if it helped.

Hi
I have a issue here.
Whenever I open my athena, it always connect to Data connection automatically ( I am using T-mobile). Even if I try to turn it off, but asap after that it try to connect the data.
(i had the same problem with Kaiser. I could not turn on TOMTOM7 only until I try to turn of Data connection, then asap turn on TT7 it would work).
But actually I only use the phone's calling function.
I don't care about other services from T-mobile, especially I don't know the useness of Data connection in my phone.
So, could u tell me the way to turn it of and only turn on when need.
thanks
Probably the best way is to go to Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections icon > Advanced tab > Select Networks. Select "My Work Network" for both drop-downs. This should force it to only use wifi and not the cell network data connection. However, it may then turn wifi on - I don't know for certain since I use the cell network for data 99.9% of the time.
You could also try to delete the data connection info. I don't know if it will let you delete all connections.
I don't think there's a way to completely stop it from trying to connect to something, as long as some program is requesting a data connection. So the first option might still give you a dialog box telling you it can't connect, and I'm guessing the second option might ask you to set up a data connection.
I use this little tool. Place it in your SD Card and use File Explorer to create a shortcut in Windows/Start Menu/Programs/"to whatever folder you want". Run the application and disable anything you don't like in TMobile Services.
wow.
thank you friend.
i will use it.
it will help me to keep energy, because when we don't use data connection automatic, it will let the phone stay longer.
Wonderful program
thanks so much
this program is wonderful.
it disable GPRS automatic stupid function that we don't use with Tmobile.
Recommend for other friends.
This program is useful when use it with Kaiser, cos I always have to turn of data connection manual and then asap try to turn on TOMTOM7. Now it is free.
Thanks!
That's a great app! Will save me some $$$.
hey mates,
i havent got always a data plan for my phone.
so normally, the mobile internet is disabled.
i do that with the following setting:
WinMo Settings - Connections - Connections - More - Choose Networks
-> programs with automatical internet access use "firmennetzwerk"
as you know, this is wireless lan.
when i change it to "E-Plus Internet", my device of course makes a data connection.
i dont use the data connection very often, so its mostly disabled. but when i wanna use it, i've always to do what is mentioned above
i guess there must be a registry value, which changes it from "Firmennetzwerk" to "E-Plus Internet" and vise versa.
can anyone say me, which one it is?
so i could make a little programm, to enable/disable it.
i tried many programms with data on/off options, but non of them really disabled it.
any other advice?
thanks!

you dont need to swap them, if you can manage to get the mobile connection disabled, it will automatically switch to using wifi so long as wifi is connected.
I use THIS. I dont use teh auto data disconnect feature of it, but the on off toggles work flawlessly for me. Flick my 'mobile web' (my default data connection) to off, and it stays off no matter what tries to connect. When i am connected to wifi, everything routes through that unless i turn the data switch back on.
you could try finding if and where the registry is changed using Kheb,
also (and pardon me, if I misunderstood your problem) why switch networks in such a tedious way?
it seems much easier to either
- enable networks (Wi-Fi or cellular) directly in the settings / comm manager
- or use quicklink switches like HD2connections?
so there's no need to dive into settings then...
thanks.
i'll give it a try.
for example with "nodata (modaco)", i could disable the data connection by pressing the button..but surprisingly, it only disconnected it....when the next program wanted a connection, it was just there again...do you understand?
DN41
i think you missunderstood it
i wanna enable it sometimes to update my facebookstatus (0.facebook.com is free for e-plus user), of course i only do it when i sit in a bus or something like that...at home i use wifi instead..
things like hd2connections didnt work for me..
maybe kheb could be the solution.

I understand, and yea, many of the data apps dont always work as expected, but the toggle in that app seems to work for me. (The timed disconnection is a little ropey, as with all apps, but the toggle works)
thanks.
i'll test it. if it works for me like for you, its fine
if not, i'll make my one "program".
DN41
it seems that the toggle simply switches THIS key 1 or 0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{long hex number, yours wont match mine)}\Connections\NAME OF YOUR DATA ACCOUNT\Enabled
thanks
you're always a help, samsamuel

heh, i dont like to not know stuff, cant move on till ive looked it up and tested it. Thank you ceregistryeditor compare!

why not? what I like in hd2connections is ease of usage - two quicklinks on homescreen ("Wi-Fi on/off" and "Data on/off"), when in need of internet switch on the preferred one, switch it off afterwards -> quick/selective and does not eat battery
because it does not block the data connection.
if a program has to download something, the data connection is made.
thats what i dont want.
DN41
Bsb tweaks? I used to use that to block the data connection then enable it when I wanted a quick surf
My prime is not loading any data, for a lack of a better description. It shows I am connected via wifi with a strong signal. But no web pages load and nothing else using data with connect, ie...market,twitter,email,etc. I am rooted on stock rom. The only recent changes i have made was a system ui mod, which changed the look of my popup settings box. I also uninstalled a few asus bloat apps, like apps locker, myEar, PicWE, etc. I am trying a TIBU restore of all system and user data right now. Can anyone else shed some light on this problem? Thanks
TIBU restore unsuccessful...
seems to be wifi stability issue, randomly connects and disconnecting
I have a similar issue when I try to switch networks from ad-hoc mobile to my home network. I can see the router, but no internet connection.
However, it always works if I reboot my router. Upon reboot, everything is fine.
Don't ask me how or why it works, but it does.
Hope this helps you.

When I try to share my mobile data connection to laptop, my laptop can't access internet.
No matter if I use USB or Wifi connection.
Everything seems to be ok, as far as settings are conserned.
Computer recognises and connects ok to the wifi hotspot or usb connection, but can't access internet.
I've tried stock rooted/unrooted and foxhound roms without luck.
Old SGS2 can share net without a problem in sight on every custom rom I've tried. I really need my "lifeline" to work with this phone.
Suggestions anyone?
[ My operator tele-finland sent 2 settings files: internet and wap. Problem was, that the WAP settongs went as default APN... ]
Edit: I've tried Foxfi app with no luck. Seems like there is a signifigant problem with my phone settings conserning mobile data, sice foxfi couldn't verify my internet connection and facebook doesn't automatically update status and youtube app can't load a single video to display...

Nice app, though it has trial quota and USB tethering only.
But one slight problem... still no internet connection.
Is the only way to (totally) reset mobile data operator settings by making factory reset/full wipe?:crying:

I used to have the exact same problem. However mine got fixed by editing the APN. Try clearing out the 'authentication type' and 'apn type' fields.
Thank you circuit89! My operator had sent me two setrings, internet and wap... Guess which one was chosen as default
Solution was to change default APN to internet from that obsolete WAP
Hello! I want to know if there is any app which works like TCPView by Sysinternals for Windows.
I simply want to disconnect active data connections, no matter if wifi or mobile data.
Does such a tool exists?
Edit: i found tools like net tools withhin i can show but dont close active connections.
Also alogcat seems to only show data connections.

I'd recommend some firewall app. Just closing a connection will not hinder the app to re-open it again. Using a firewall app, you can make sure the connection stays closed.
The shell command netstat shows active connections.
Thank you. Im alrdy using avast fw with whitelist mode and it works as it should.
I was asking because some apps dont start until they got an internet connection (even if they dont need one) or it takes rly long till connection times out so they can start.
So i thoight i could block them going online and disconnect the pending connection which is -listening- to some port and waiting for connection.
