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...

Turn WiFi ON/OFF without WLan Manager

Hi all,
There was always a problem with turning WiFi ON on BlueAngels. It had to be done thru a WLAN Manager and required a user interaction. Besides, after a soft reset WiFi was always off on most WM6 ROMs. It always annoyed me a lot. Recently I found two files for Artemis I believe (which seems to have similar problems with WiFi), which allow to turn WiFi ON and OFF without a WLAN Manager on this model. I modified them to be usable on BA and attached them to this post. You can make a shortcut in a StartUp folder to turn WiFi ON after a soft reset, or a shortcut to ON/OFF it from Today, or whatever you imagine . Enjoy.

[Q[ Anyway to pull WiFi Driver from 2.2.1 and replace 2.3.3

Hey guys
As some may or may not be aware i cant and a few select others can not use WiFi on any custome/stock 2.3.3 rom.
My issue is not with connecting to a router, its with data not being pulled through to the handset, so the handset basically tells me that it cant display a webpage or access the market.
If i use any 2.2.1 rom, stock or custom it works absolutely perfect.
So it got me thinking is it a WiFi driver issue? and if so would it be possible to pull the driver out of a 2.2.1 rom to replace the driver within the 2.3.3 rom?
Gingerbread is not a necessity for me i just want it as an option.
as for HTC they are utterly useless and all they offer is a repair when clearly its a software issue
So is there a way to do this?

i dont think it is possible because drivers are usually built when the kernel is built so swapping one from another rom i doubt will not work..

My Problem SOLVED by flashing LeeDroid 3.0.3. Check That

I've been on the phone with HTC several times and here is what I've heard back via email:
"I understand that you are currently experiencing difficulties with data connection side of the phone.
I cannot give you a reason on what happen to your device even though we have sucessfull models updated with the same FOTA.
In order to rectify this I would like you to perform the following actions:
1) Stop the automatic Backup in your phone. From the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Privacy. Uncheck "Backup my settings".
2) Copy your Memory Card's personal data (photos, music, etc) into a PC Windows Desktop. Use the option "Disk Drive" when plug the USB cable.
3) Format the SD Card. While connected to a Windows PC. You can select the Format option via Windows Explorer or with the cable unplugged you can go from the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > SD & Phone Storage > Unmount / Erase SD Card.
4) Remove the SIM Card and the Memory Card.
5) Hard Reset your Mobile Device.
6) Skip the initial setup. Do not log into your Gmail account at this stage but setup the correct time and date on your mobile phone.
7) Insert the SIM card, accept the SIM notification on the top left corner and test the voice call, SMS and Internet Service.
Report back if one of this services fails with exact description on how you are doing to perform the task.
8) If possible, switch off and switch on your personal Wi-Fi router after 1 minute. Switch Wi-Fi on your mobile device and connect to the router. Report back if one of this services fails with exact description on how you are doing to perform the task.
9) Log into your Gmail account from the Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Accounts & Sync > Add account and select Google.
Once more test and report back if the problem persists.
"

and with this method you solved the problem?i´ve curiosity lol

Given that I've already had a normal hard reset albeit without sim card dance, is it worth trying to do yet another one?
I just finished reinstalling apps and contacts - would hate to do this all over again.
Thanks

exactly! i am not sure whether the guys in support know what they are talking about...

Just keeping you busy until you've forgotten your original question ;-)

+1 for me there!
I now have switched several times from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 and back, did full wipes, did resets, did reboots, did reflashes, tried EXT4 in the process, did even some praying... Nothing worked out so far.
I think it's kinda frustrating!
BTW: might there be a link to Thomson SpeedTouch WiFi access points? For I have had the experience that the WiFi did work at my office, where they use (amongst others) Sitecom access points, whilst at home I have SpeedTouch and no data stream.

There could well be a link there, i have a speedtouch router at homel Will try our belking access point at work, give me a few mins

Ok using the belkin at work, nothing, using the linksys one at work, it works.
so there are some defo issues with compatability, one thing is that my speedtouch is an N Series router, the Belkin also is N, the Linksys one is a/b/g
i wonder if there is something broken with compatability. Still no official stance from HTC

At other office, we use D-Link access points (DAP-1360) also N series with no possible WiFi connection running Gingerbread.
I am not sure but afaIk, my home SpeedTouch isn't N series. I will look that up next thing I come home.
Will report back.
Found another WiFi access point at the office 'somewhere in the air': Belkin G Plus MIMO (obviously a G-band router) and it connects fine!!

Hi ascottuk,
Just verified my WiFi access point at home (SpeedTouch) and it definitely is b/g.
So it can't be a N protocol incompatibility problem, since I have the mentioned WiFi problems at home too (and I am sure it isn't a signal strength problem).

Hi ascottuk,
I have a SpeedTouch 716 at home.
This morning I thought maybe there would be a firmware update for that access point: BINGO!
After the update, everything is running fine with Gingerbread

Mobile Network Traffic despite WLAN connected

Hi,
when my HOX is lying near by PC Speakers, i can hear Internet Traffic over EDGE/UMTS excatly all 3 Minutes. (I hope u can understand what i mean)
I´m wondering about that bescause WIFI is active and connected, and i never had this with my DHD.
Due to optimizing Battery life, i disable mobile Network manually when i´m at home and have WIFI connected.
I use ARHD 9.1.0 with stock Kernel and EQS + APM + %Batterycircle + Autobrighness by jotha.
Baseband: 2.1204.135.20
Build; 2.17.401.2 CL89015
Any Ideas whats generating this traffic and why the HOX don´t use WIFI for that?

its normal gsm traffic. like if somebody sent you an sms, you would hear that sound. not sure why it didn't do it with dhd and now does with hox, but either way, shielded speakers are there to solve that problem. as for adapting your current speakers to shield them, not sure if its possible or not though.

Thanks for your Answer, but i don´t hear that Traffic if mobile Network is disabled, so i thinkt it can´t be "normal GSM Traffic".

oh i see what you mean..
might be network location services?
settings>location>google's location service.
i know the location services use wifi as well, but it might use mobile network in conjuction even if connected to wifi.. try disable that and see if it continues.

Thanks again, tested, but unfortunately the traffic is still there

try download osmonitor, might be other apps more specific that can help, but osmonitor should do the trick i hope.
set your screen not to turn off, just for ease..
goto the connections tab, process tab will also be useful and watch it until the noise happens. you're looking for either a process, that jumps to the top of the list when the sound happens (spike in cpu usage), and then does it every time the sound happens, or a connection, that ISN'T your local or external wifi ip address, but also has similar behaviour, ie the connection is created when the sound occurs, and is then gone a minute later.. (the connection should show an app name)
if you find an app that looks like it could be causing it, then try to uninstall it temporarily to see if it fixes the issue. if it does fix the problem, the next step would be to contact the developer of that app to request a fix for it. it could however be a system process causing the problem.
failing the above, you could try the same sort of diagnostics, but with logcat instead. i don't actually know how to initiate logcat, i'm sure a google will tell you how though.

Thanks again! (i´ll hit the Button )
Okay, got that app installed.
Unfortunately the Sound DOES NOT appear all 3 Minutes when the Display is on.
When it starts and i unlock my screen i cant see any new entries in the Connectionstab.
Processes the same, but "Android System" shortly came on Top. (maybe the Display Unlock is the Reason for that?)
BTW: Why i got 2 permanent open Connections?
1. Google Bookmark-Sync (Whois -> Google)
2. Downloadmanager (Whois -> "The New York Internet Company")
Not idea what that could be.

you should be able to set the display to never turn off in settings>display and gestures
i don't think it'll be very easy if even possible to find it if the screens off (the spike would only be there for a second or 2, by the time it's unlocked etc it will have disappeared)
the other connections, first one is probably the google account sync, and not sure about download manager, maybe something got stuck, you could try clearing data for the download app, but to be honest i doubt that they're any problem anyway so probably nothing to worry about
edit: the download manager bit judging by the whois could be an app relating to that? do you have anything similarly named installed?

This is crazy - when the screen is on, the sound isnt audible. It only happens when the screen is off.
In the Connections Tab is only one Connection without my WiFi-IP, and whois shows me its a DNS Server from my Carrier (vodafone).
In the Process Tab i can see that "System" comes up on Top for ca 2 seconds, further no action.
The 2 Connections which stays established:
Clearing the Donwloadmanager Data was a Success... Thanx again.
The Connection to Google from "Google Bookmark-Sync" is still there. Gmail Sync is deactivated in accounts.
I think i´ll give it up and live with it

I had Honor Note 10 with same problems.
Look here, may be you get help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-10/help/notifications-fixed-t3836701
Look the post #7.

solution:
There are 2 settings that will totally minimize this problem (even Galaxy note 8 and iphones of my brothers are having this problem too)
but if you follow these 2 steps you will definitely minimize them as much as other phones
1. Settings/Battery/App Launch and set individual aps you like to get the notification to Manage manually
- turn all the 3 options on here (running in background , startups , and can be run by other apps) this will stop your phone from killing these specific apps from running in background
The second reason you don't get your notifications is because when your screen is off the Wifi will be disconnected first and then for a certain period of time , the system will also turn off your mobile data to save the battery as well. This means even if you have those apps running in background , you still won't get the notification because there's no internet connection....
So step 2 - go to Settings/Battery/ then look at the top right corner for the "gear" icon ,click ---- > Keep mobile data on <----- turn on option
(if you don't have mobile data plan and only rely on your wifi connection,well, you need to turn on keep your w-lan on instead )
the delays and problems are still present.........gmail apk !!! google mail!!
My mate 20 x is chinese version EVR-AL00 with android 10 and Emui 10....with my other phone (Xiaomi Mi Max 3) it's all OK perfect ??? why????
