Tweak for GPRS Always On????

[efayes]

Greetings...any experts here can figure it out how we can tweak the reg to get GPRS Always On? Please advice... :P

[vlasherz]

ya...so i am
please anyoune give us some solution for that
thanks in advance

[boybi]

isn't it that when you sync your device with your PC, the GPRS gets disconnected? or is there also a tweak that automatically establishes the GPRS connection once you remove the sync cable?

[oltp]

Try http://www.gb-soft.cz ;-)

What is your experience with the battery life if GPRS is always on?

[oltp]

It's a little worse than with gprs off. As I'm having an imap-client running, my battery-life is down anyway & it needs the connection. I do shutdown the connection @ night, so I'll leave it open tonight & report the diff. tomorrow.

Cheers, M

GPRS will turn off automatically...after few hours...dunno why...

I need just a reg tweak to make it ALWAYS ON...

i know about thr Tweak Programme... but it caused problem on my PPC sounds settings...

so i would prefer just a tweak entry in registry... :P

[oltp]

HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\(GPRS connection name)\AlwaysOn = 1 (DWORD decimal)

[garikaa]

ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\(GPRS connection name)\AlwaysOn

At me such section does not exist.

[efayes]

yea...too bad...i dun hv it either... :shock:

[oltp]

Strange I got it from an other post & verified it in my own registry. What is missing?

HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\(GPRS connection name)\AlwaysOn = 1 (DWORD decimal)

i don't have ConnMgr under \Comm

[oltp]

What is your experience with the battery life if GPRS is always on?

When in standby for 8 hours my battery life reduces by 3% when gprs is off & by 7% when gprs is on. That was the only diff during the nights I tested. So conclusion is simple.

i don't have ConnMgr under \Comm

Hmmm?? don't understand that

like garikaa, this part ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\(GPRS connection name)\AlwaysOn does not exist in my registry.

boybi,

Sorry being unclear, I understand what's missing, but don't understand why.

Are you on a recent rom?

Cheets, M

[boybi]

my ROM is 1.11WWE

[oltp]

Could be cab or rom related. Maybe I got some time tonight to inspect some cabs I installed.

Hope it's worth it, maybe it doesn't even solve the original problem.

M

[oltp]

These settings a coming from the ext-rom cabs in rom 1.13, with this rom I got gprs always on by default.

Thanks for the information. For me it means no-go for the GPRS-aways-on. During an 8-hour night (or day), based on your figures, battery is down only by an acceptable 24% without GPRS, while by 56% with GPRS.

It is a huge difference. You have to charge your Magician twice a day, if GPRS is always on.

[oltp]

Uhm you misunderstood me a little. The 3% is total battery decrease in 8 hours, not per hour. Same goes for the 7%. So the relative diff is great, but absolute diff...is acceptable. & Yes I do charge once a day at least & more when gaming, browsing etc a lot.

Thank you for the clarification. Yes, it paints a completely different picture.

Now I just have to find out why my Magician looses so much from its battery power...

oltp could you put your reg files with above here??

[efayes]

i can't get 1.13 in Malaysia yet... :?

[natong]

When use GPRS, can you receive a phone call ?

[ptcman]

Does anyone solved this problem yet?

I have the 1.12 Rom version and is very annoying having the GPRS connection going always down after 30 min.

The GBsoft doesn't work, the connection still going down.

:(
