I checked it for test to see what was the last time it was refreshed, and it was on the last alarm even it was disabled in settings. It bother me becouse I haven't enough available transfer data in contract and it eat me about 800KB for every alarm.

is there such a thing as scheduled silent/profile software

hi
i have searched google prior to posting here and it came up with photo contacts, but thats a lot more than what i need, also when i checked compatibility it said if you have an HTC s620 you need the smartphone edition, but looking at the features the SP edition doesnt seem to detail the scheduled times of silence/profiles like the touch screen version
all i want to have enabled is this:
lets say at 11pm each night, the phone makes itself silent.
then at 8am in the morning it reverts to normal profile again.
on my iphone, i have the kate software which does that for me, but nothing i can see for the excalibur
if anyone knows of anything that would be great
thanks

I haven't tried this, but I believe you could set up an appointment in your calendar from, say, 11pm-8am repeating daily. Windows Mobile can set your profile as silent just like being in a meeting for that time period. It'd be the cheap-and-easy fix.
CT Scheduler, Autoflight, and Switchprofile! are two non-free applications that can do what you want.
DontForget and Snooze are two free ones that might work.
Check clickapps.com, smartphone-freeware.com, and connectivetools.com for them.
Yeah just set an appointment at the time u want it to be silent and set your status to busy I think. Then set your profile to automatic to when even that appointment starts it will automatically be silent
I use Cell Profile Switcher, it switches profiles based on what cell tower i am connected to.

Email HELP... PLEASE.

I'm gonna fire this thing out the door at 100mph soon..
Thanks for looking.
First off, I'm coming from a CrackBerry, which worked, not that it matters.
I have tried several roms, double checked all my settings etc .. but still not functioning properly.
I have a tilt2 (running on Bell Network (Canada)) and I like the unit, but need to perform as follows:
1,) Email,auto connect every 15mins or so, even if unit is a sleep in my pocket.
2.) NOTIFY me when an EMAIL comes in with a Buzz, ding/ring and screen Icon.
3.) Go WIFI first to check, then go G if wifi not connected. check mail
4.) THEN DISCONNECT It. period
I've tried 6 different roms and they all seem to behave different, some won't auto disconnect, some don't notify me till hours later, most don't auto Check every 15min as it is set to. (I'm not blaming the rom,.. but everyone seems to be different .. yet the same)
I'm at my wits end,
stupid comments about check this/ check that comments are WELCOME as it is probably something I'm doing not the device. (I consider myself 'puter savy but this sucker is winning.)
PS: Any roms with Transcriber working ?

1. What is the method of email retrieval? Microsoft Exchange? POP3/IMAP4? or WindowsLive mail (Hotmail)?
If Microsoft Exchange,
Open Activesync
Tap Menu -> Schedule
Set schedule accordingly
If POP3 or IMAP4,
Open the Messaging application.
Go into Options. (If at Account Picker, tap Menu->Options. If already in an account's inbox, tap Menu->Tools->Options.)
Tap "Send/Receive Schedule"
Set schedule accordingly
If Windows Live or Hotmail,
Open Windows Live
Tap Menu->Options
Tap "Sync schedule"
Set schedule accordingly
2. Go to Settings->Personal tab->Sounds&Notifications->Notifications tab. In the dropdown menu for "Event", select "Messaging: New e-mail message" and adjust accordingly.
3. Your device should always prioritize your wifi connection ahead of your cellular connection by default. But note that your device's wifi is inactive when in suspended mode unless you applied a registry edit. But also note that if you keep you wifi active all the time, you battery life will suffer.
4. There's nothing you need to do here. After your device finishes polling for mail and there's no other application using your connection, there's no data activity. You really shouldn't be concerned with disconnecting unless your carrier charges you by the hour.

Mobile internet does not switch off

I have a touch pro 2 and have just come off a no data limit package to a cheap 100 mb one on o2.
Nowadays I hardly use the data on my fone but only a week after switching I get a text that I've hit my limit. I use email push but only a dozen or so emails a day. No fb or twitter. no browsing.
I notice whenever email gets pushed the notification says I'm still connected. 20 hours I was connected for but I wasn't using any online applications. Is it normal for it to sit idling like that and will this contribute to my allowance ... Seems pretty clear it does.
I've tried all the settings but nothing switches the mobile internet off automatically when I connect to pick up emails.

Just connect, grab email, disconnect. If you have to manually connect, I don't see why it's a big deal to manually disconnect. If you leave it connected, there's applications that will use the net by default - like weather, etc.
Actually I think the weather app was responsible in the first instance but it's off now.
Just doesn't make sense that it would not switch off.

What do you mean? If you switch it on, it stays on. Just switch it off when you're done.
I guess what I mean is that if a device has push email functionality is doesn't make sense that when it retrieves it, it doesn't go offline.
I'm manually connecting now and that seems to be working.
Thanks for the help so far.

If you enable the connection, it will stay enabled. There might be some app like mortscript or something that will help you automate this process, but if you manually enable it you're going to have to manually disable it, short of what I mentioned above.

[Q] Twitter app

My twitter app settings has a minimum of 5 minutes sync interval, why can't it be instant? Why would anyone set it to say 1 hour. They would miss the opportunity to reply in good time.
Is there a way to edit this setting and give a new value of 0?

Funny you asked that because I have my sync disabled. I wanna save my battery and make it last through the day. If people want me to reply in good time, they should send me a text message or better yet call me and not tweet a message to me. Besides that, if I have a limited data plan, every minute of refresh would mean data usage...
I only have my sync on when I'm at home and my wireless is on. If only tweeting was instant like txt messaging.
I'm looking at twitter in root explorer to see if there's anything I can change.

Facebook is draining my battery

Hello,
I fully charged my phone's battery yesterday (it reached 100%), then I turned off WiFi and my data plan (ie, 3G was off). Basically the phone could only receive normal voice calls and SMS.
I was going to sleep, so I put it on silent and left it. No one touched it, no calls were received and no SMS either. The phone was basically idle for about 8 hours.
I woke up late today because for some reason, the battery was completely drained during the night. The alarm didn't go off.
When I charged it, I went to the battery settings and saw that facebook used 65% of the battery. How can that be possible if no one touched my phone. there was no internet connection for it to use facebook in the first place !
What's going on here, something is very wrong. How can I stop facebook from draining my battery's phone? Why is it doing this in the first place?
The refresh rate is set to 'never' and notification settings are set to 'inactive'.
Did you restore Facebook app from titanium backup?
After I flash custom roms, I find that Facebook app misbehaving if I restored via titanium. Usually uninstalling the app and downloading from market sorts it out.

Facebook runs in the background by default. It may be that Facebook is constantly trying to get a connection that does not exist. Go into settings, personal, accounts & sync and make sure the Facebook sync is turned off.
@smokestorm
no, didn't restore anything. plus im using stock rom.
@patruns
I just checked, I have no facebook sync icon at all. I do have friendcaster icon with sync ON and now I changed it to sync OFF.
Facebook notifications kills battery.. I've removed the app.. but when I had it.. I would go into settings and disable all the notifications..
Facebook in general is a lost cause and this proves it more
