How can i force disconnect umts after check mail??

Hi, i m very happy with the new rom but i have a problem.
I set my emails accounts to periodically (30 minutes) check the account. With other roms when the precess was done then the connection was closed. With the new ROM the UMTS connection keeps stablished and the battery is out in a few hours. Does somebody know how to avoid it??
Thanks...

Same problem here... anybody??
Thanks in advance.

-......and the "always on" is set to 0.....

I am afraid that would undermine the whole definition of Push Mail. So it could very well be that it is impossible.
I remember reading an article about Push Mail and there one of the Microsoft engineers has been talking about that if you use GPRS the battery consumption is much and much less. But hey then whty buy a 3G phone. Also as I understand the GPRS is not able to properly handle the GSM simultaneously. At least I know in QTEK 110S when GPRS is actively downloading data you are unreachable for calls.... UMTS makes that possible.

I suppose it...but now ...
1) I cant automatically check my email (the connection keeps on)
2) I cant automatillally download the weather forecast(the connection keeps on).
......
I cant schedule any application that uses any connection because it keeps on and it drains the battery very quickly.
What can i do?
thanks

the weather program should have a seeting to use an active connection if av ailable. At least I have seen it in some weather programs. And if yours does not have it then get another one.
About other progs that need a connection. If I start IE I can just start browsing and works fine.
About you not being able to automatically check e-mail? I thought you enabled the Push email so what are you talking abouy. It automatically pushes emails to you ?????

ye, yes but what i want is when the program (mail, pocket weather, etc) finishs to use the connection then it is shutted down by the OS.
My job is Windows CE software developer and this is a problem. BEFORE (with old roms) when a program needs a connection the it requests a connection to the Connection manager. Then after use it, the program usually release it (using the connection manager). When no programs needs a connection then the connection manager shutted down the connection (if it was GPRS or UMTS). With the new ROM the connection manager doesnt shut down the connection.....

Yea you are right....
It is the disconnect part.
Well the battery drain is more then.
But hey I am not so bothered because I can load the battery at home in the office and in the car and when I go on vacation I turn the Pushmail offf

semi solved
Hi,
I ve wrote a little C program, 5 Kb. This program monitor any posible GPRS=UMTS connection. If it detects that this connection isnt used in 1 minute(no incoming bytes in one minute) then the connection will be closed.
this program hasnt UI so you will not see anything when you execute it. I will improve it adding a botton icon allowing the set the "one minute" parameter and the posibility to exit it....Obviously the program doesnt run when the device is suspended......

.. it should be placed in \windows\startup folder to run after each reset....

Hi dherrero,
Thanks for posting a great program. I had exactly the same issue as this but your program works perfectly and it disconnects it when the connection is not used for a minute or so.
The only probelm I have now is I equally get disconnected by this program when I am browsing websites with PIE and that is very annoying. I would appreciate it if you could modify this program to make it work only for email checking.
Kind regards,

Hi,
I am improving this little program. it isnt finished but it solves your problem. I recommend you to put it in rom and put a link in windows\starup.
When the system boots you will see a little white-blue icon in the bottom-right.
If you click this icon you will see a screen that show:
1) Bytes received in current connection.
2) Connections that the program has closed.
3) Startup time.
4) Connections checks done. (one each 30 seconds)
5) Last check date
6) Last close date.
And 4 buttons .
1) Disable: It's interesting for you. It disables the action of closing the connections.
2) Enable. The opposite. (by default it is enabled)
3) OK. Hide this screen
4) Close: Close the program.....
I hope it is usefull to you....

hi dherrero
from where can I download your prog?
tx for help

You have to login, or register if you havent, and you will see the link.....

Hi dherrero,
Thanks for getting back so promptly. It works nice on my device and now I can manually disable it directly from the Today screen when I need to.
A minor problem I found is that the characters on the Connection Manager control panel get truncated. This is probably due the fact that I have a Japanese ttc font installed to replace the default system font by tweaking the registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink\".
I hope this helps your development. Thanks again...

Hi again,
I always develop in VGA, using ozVGA. Now i ve changed the positions and now it looks correctly in vga and sevga.

Hi dherrero,
Thanks a lot!
It now runs flawlessly...

Best WIFI app for Windows Mobile 6.x

Hi all,
As I am sure to find a good number of super geeks on Windows Mobile in here, I am simply wondering... out of all the Wifi programs available out there for Windows Mobile, I am looking for something that will do the following:
Automatically detect new Wifi networks and automatically connect to the best/fastest Open Wifi network in whatever location I may be.
Is there such a thing? This would help me cut down on data costs and would also save me a lot of time instead of having to navigate to the wifi networks, finding an open one and connecting to it.
Any input appreciated!
DaScope

cut down data cost??
so your saying you have a limit to your data on your phone?
and its not safe to connet to any and every network with out you knowing btw

hmm.. for me the best wifi app is the one that can crack wep/wpa keys )

I know someone used wififofum, which does exactly as you want. however, they seemed to have trouble connecting to their own (security enabled) home wifi.

this may work, havent tried yet: http://www.wefi.com/download/?cat=mobile

LMAO...good one

I'm pretty happy with the stock comm manager, but it would be nice to have a manager that saved your profiles and that was easy to back up. I use Makisu to back up password protected Wifi accounts, but it's kind of a pain in the butt.

Data connection on demand

Okay I am really starting to regret this phone as its being a pain. I have an ATT tilt2 on Rogers and settings all work.
On my Kaiser when an app needed the Data it would turn it on and all would be good. Then after a certain amt of time of non use it would disconnect the data. Is there a setting that allows the phone to turn on the data when its needed? It seems that its either on or off.
This leads me to the second issue. About 5 times a day I get a message that the connection failed. I can then go to the settings and turn on the data connection and the internet will work again. I have never turned it off nor do I have any programs that restrict it.
Lastly, I have a bunch of factory connections that I can not use as I am not on ATT's service plus a few I created when I was first setting up the phone. I can delete some of them in connection manager how do I get rid of them permanantly?
It seems to me that there is way less user configuration in 6.5 than in 6.1 yet thanks to ATT its 3 times as large. Can anyone suggest a work around for the Data on demand issue?

I use HD Tweak and it works fairly well. Because the hardware is a little different, not all of the settings translate, but the things that are common between both phones works fine. You can find the link on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
Under section 6 (Data), there is a "Disconnect After", which I set for 2 minutes. Once the data is idle for 2 mins, it disconnects. The next time a program needs it again, the data connects again. Don't forget to soft reset after making changes.
Hope this helps

Okay got it working
Thanks its working now. I had installed that but there must have been somthing corrupt in my ROM as I was also unable to Harddpl it. I did two hard resets in a row, was able to flash then reistalled and now it seems to work fine.
Now if someone would make an app that uses different LED's for different notices similar to the Kaiser Notification app that was awsome.

Strange Wi-Fi problem

Hello
I have a strange problem with Wi-Fi in my rhodium. I have to wait about one minute to load any data from Internet (for example load google page in web browser). It heppens only after i soft reset or switch on rhodium. I enable Wi-Fi and then try to load google or something other - I wait about minute to load page. After that everything works fine. If i switch off Wi-Fi and switch on again it also works good. My problem heppens only after fresh wi-fi start after reset. It heppens at all web browsers and others applications. I tried also hard reset. I have stock rom 6.1. Someone can help me? I have no idea :/

Does this only happen with a single wifi location (i.e. your home), or anywhere you use wifi?
If this is related to your home wifi, you might be able to sign into your router's management portal page and watch to see if the router shows an active connection with your TP2 as soon as the phone says it's connected, or if there's a delay there..

I didn't check it with other location than my home network - becouse I don't switch off my pda when im outside, but i will try it Today i rebooted my router and pda and then turned on wi-fi on pda. After that.. wi-fi worked without wait, i repeated it 3 times and it works lol. Router see connection of pda without delay. I have no idea now what it is but im happy that it works now. I reboot my router often so i dont think that it could be a router problem which disappear after reboot, but time will show. I will write if this problem comes again.
