Wifi Power Saving - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Afternoon all,
I`ve been using the sip client in WM6 thanks to you guys but have a slight problem.
Everytime the screen turns off so does the wifi, which looses connection, therefore incoming SIP calls dont get picked up. Anyone know how to disable this? i cant see a setting anywhere so i assume its a registry setting?
Cheers Andy

I dont think there is a way to make wifi act that way. U could set power settings to never turn off and just turn off screen, but tht would mean RIP battery in no time i suppose. Am i wrong?

Keylock turns off on SMS reception

Hi
on my new Orange SPV m2000, i configured the keylock to lock everything but the power on/off switch. But.. when i receive an SMS, an eMail or when Pocket outlook wants to connect to the GPRS network (and wants to show me the little bubble saying that i'ts about to do so) then the keylock is being turend off (=the SPV is being turned on) and i can use all the keys and the touchscreen.
since i often receive SMS when my phone is min my pocket, i don't really like this kind of behaviour..
doesn't anyone have this problem too? to me it seems like a basic windows mobile problem the way things are being made... or is it just a configuration fault of mine?
any help is appreciated...
cheers

Same prob with XDAII
Don't want to hijack your thread... but i'm having the same problem with SMS.
But also, every time i receive a phonecall, the phone unlocks, and does not lock itself again. So if i have the phone on silent, it unlocks in my pocket, and then my phone starts calling people by mistake until i lock it again.
I enabled the lock all buttons except power button option but this doesn't work. The only additional software i have running on the phone is TomTom2 and Towa's patch if that makes any difference. ROM ver 1.60.50.
Any solutions? I may otherwise have to get rid of my trusty XDAII otherwise
Thanks!
Sorry, I dont have a solution, but my phone does the same.
Its as if the phones were designed on a desk, and no one bothered to try them in the real world.

Hmm... I don't have this problem on my XDAII and I don't think I ever had it. What ROMs are you XDAII peeps using? Standard UK O2 ROMs like me? (I'm up to 1.72 now.)
Wonder why my XDAII wouldn't have this problem but others might, unless it's a ROM problem.
This is a known problem with the Blue Angel, but not with the XDAII that I've heard of.
hi
i think there is alternative way to minimize problem. you can set your password for your phone, then when there is incoming call or message, even though it will unlock all button, but before you use it, the unit will ask you password. so at least you will not miss call anyone anymore.
I'm having the same problem with my Pda2k.
I've disabled all but the power button. And I do have a password on the device.
I've had the following scenarios happen;
Scenario 1:
Every time I receive an SMS, the device powers up, waits for the password - If I don't hear it it then proceeds to stay on and drain the battery.
It just doesn't seem to go back to sleep.
BTW - the unit gets very warm...
Scenario 2:
Even when I do hear it, I often find that the unit is frozen - ie I try to type in the password, the asterisks show on screen but it seems nowhere after that. I'm running Pocket Plus, which has had problems with HTC devices - but I'm not running the today plugin at the moment.
Soft Reset is the only option.

Yes, i think we are all in the same boat here. The problem is that the device wasnt designed to be in your pocket (I know.. I know.. Pocket PC). Problem being, on recieving sms/mms/call the gsm part of the device sends the wake siganl to the O/S, causing the device to power on.
The simple solution as mentioned above is to lock the keys (password) but again as mentioned this can cause alot of power loss because the device will not sleep if your leg keeps trying to enter the password (in your pocket). I'm guessing that why so many people tend to use the belt clips with these devices. :?
I'm sure it will be in the next feature request so that only the LED indicator will change and flash if chosen but until then we all have to look like geeks with belt clips.
If anyone knows of a registry hack or app that can stop the wake signal form annoying us all the please post. :shock:
Workaround
Hi there,
Same problem on my 9090. But I had this on my former crappy iPAQ 6340 too.
Here's a workaround which works for me:
Go to "Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications"
then select tab "Notifications"
in the "Event"-dropdown select "Messaging: New text message" and uncheck "Display message on screen". Uncheck for "Phone: Voice mail" and "Phone: Missed call" too.
BTW: The warming device is just a feature: you don't have to buy a pocket hand warmer in winter!

Or use a 3rd party software like the ones described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=15573

A few BT Niggles

Hi Guys,
Ive got a few BT niggles which im sure are easy enough to get round when someone starts getting some custom roms out but i cant seem to find a way around them at the minute, issues are:
- When phone is in standby (aka screen off) and you try and make a call via bluetooth car kit it turns phone and on says please unlock before making a call, if i turn the screen on before making the call it goes through.
- When you disconnect from car kit aka turn the car off etc it comes up with a notification and says its been disconnected and to hold the phone to your ear, this doesnt go away until you press dismiss.
None of these problems are show stoppers by any means but they are annoying when you just want to get in / out the car and making calls etc, aka i cant just get in the car and make a call, i have to turn the screen on first, and i cant get out the car and carry on as ive got to press dismiss on the screen as it keeps the phone switched on (screen on) until you press dismiss so i could accidentally press buttons etc plus will wear battery down.
If anyones managed to work these problems out then please let me know!
Cheers

Voice Command V1.6
Hi Guys,
I also have a problem with bluetooth... well voice command.
I had the TYTN 2 with WM6.1 working perfectly with VC 1.6 and so naturally assumed that TP2 would be the same, sadly I was wrong :-(
It doesnt even try to use the software, bluetooth connects perfectly but I cannot initiate VC with the usual hardware button.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I had the same problems - in an Audi A6 for what it's worth. On my TP2 had both a PIN device lock and the option to show owners info when switched on.
Disabled both of these, and it now works perfectly in the car. Not quite sure which was causing the problem and may reinstate PIN followed by Show Owners Info to try to isolate.
TP2 Brilliant phone - have been using a TyTn2 for the last 18 months or so which I also thought was exceptional.
desperately seeking BT DUN
Hi all,
I am missing to be able to connect my TP2 via Bluetooth to my Nokia mobiles (N73, 5800) which do not provide PAN or NAP profiles but only DUN.
I need to use the SIM-card in the Nokia for the data-only connection whilst using the SIM-card in TP2 for phone-only connection.
I tried all the tricks in this and other forums. Unfortunately the most promising approach ("New installation file for Bluesoleil drivers! " - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=251995) doesn't let me download the file.
Who got it to work? Who knows how to enable in the TP2?
thank you, Franky

Just got Tilt 2 yesterday...Error saying "Can't turn on bluetooth"

I just picked up my tilt 2 yesterday and up until right now it's been great. I turned off my bluetooth last night before I went to bed, and when I try to turn it on now it gives me an error saying, "Can't turn on bluetooth". I'm trying to turn it on via the Wireless Manager.
Can somebody please help? This is extremely annoying.
I don't know if I understand you well, but here is what I think you could do:
tap on the top bar and you will get the notification manager. On top you will see a bar with your carrier name. On the right of that bar there is an icon that shows the strenght of your carrier. Tap that icon and you will end up in the communication manager. There you should be able to turn BT on or off.
Hope this is helpfull.
regards, Kuzibri

Thanks for the response. This is what I tried doing, and when I try to enable bluetooth I get that error. I'm thinking unfortunately I may have to hard reset already
sorry I could not help you, but I would try several soft resets before a hard reset.
That's okay, you tried!! I tried about 10 soft resets. It looks like I have no choice.
good luck and I hope that the hard reset will do the job for you!!
OOPS, before I forget: do you use RamSweeper? If yes, then this is the problem and not your TP2. Please let me know if you use this program and I will tell you how to avoid this BT problem.
No I do not use RamSweeper. I actually just did a hard reset and bluetooth works fine now. Very weird.
Since turning off bluetooth I've installed SlingPlayer, vibra switch (to turn phone on vibrate fast), and thats all.
OK, nice to hear and good luck. Maybe either Slingplayer or vibra switch is the cause of your problem. Maybe its good to try this out before running into the same problem again.
Thank you for the help. I just installed SlingPlayer and bluetooth still works. I'm going to wait on the vibra switch software because it isnt 100% needed with the Tilt 2. I can always just push the volume down until it's on vibrate.
Thanks again!!
Hey Kuzibri just wanted to let you know that this was the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522373 I forgot that I installed TomTom on there!
I dont know if you still logon or not... my bluetooth wont turn on I tried hard reseting but still get teh status msg "can't turn bluetooth on' any idea how to fix it?

No Connection when Screen off.

Hello,
i have readed a much and i dont find another one who have this anoying error:
Every time i go into sleep by pressing the power button all my data connection is lost ...... only wlan is working, for example when i take a call and the phone comes to my ear and the screen turns off because of the proximity sensor the connection lost and the call end -.-
How to solve this problem?
Im am waiting for a RUU with Hboot 0.80 from 02 Germany to send it back to o2, because my phone is bricked -.- the only things that are not working is this error and the usb connectivity........
I flashed the testimage of the Modaco Root process so i dont have superuser.apk but root acess .... EVERY app has root acess now... this is ****ing fail...!!
Hope u understand me and help me.
Did you install Juicedefender or something?
No only a few apps because i have no apps2sd.... i testet it without apps, too.
Same problem here.
When the display turns off , soon after WLAN is disabled. Happens with Sipdroid, last.fm musicplayer and FritzFon App. This is inconvenient since i cant make calls over VoIP because when the proximity sensor turns the screen off the wlan connection is lost and the call ends.
Have you checked the WiFi sleep policy?
When you are in the WiFI settings menu, press the Menu button again and then select "Advanced". You can then change the WiFi sleep policy to "Never".
Regards,
Dave
Yes it was at never and i switsched to both other aviable things and nothing changed ....-.-
No answer´s? =(
I've the same problem. If I'm downloading an app from market and then I switch off the display the download remains freezed.
The advanced wifi option is set to "never"
No my wifi connection dont lost all the others !?

[Q] Wifi staying on when screen turns off.

HI forumers
can you suggest any help?
When I have my device screen turned off, my wifi stays connected. So in the middle of the night, emails will sting "ping" out a sound.
I have selected in the settings to turn off Wifi when in sleep, and when i close my case cover, but it just doesnt.. Any ideas?
Thanks
Yeah that doesnt work for me either. I would try setting a wifi timer in wifi, adavanced settings and pick a time where you want wifi to be on during certain times of the day. Hope this helps!
Really?! not just me then? I was wondering if maybe a downloaded app is making this error happen.
Can anyone confirm that it does work for them?
Guys, Have you tried to untick "always autorized localisation search" in the advanced parameter of the wifi ?
Hope it could help.
Good idea, but I've just tried this and it didnt fix the problem..
Anyone else?
Or maybe someone knows an app that can do this?
