Data Button can't be selected

[Shining Light]

The Data Button (#5) in the Comm Manager can't be selected to turn it on most of the time. After I turned the data (EDGE) off to use Wifi it can't be turn back on.

Anyone else having this prob?

You shouldn't needity need to turnity turn it offity off.

If Wifi is connected you will use Wifi... And if the data button is grayed out it means there is no data connection anyways.

Wifi is not connected and I do need to turn data on. The Wifi could be turned off and it still does this.

i think it will only turn on when you use a program that uses data. i could be wrong, i noticed that to but didnt really pay much attention to it.

I could be using Opera Mini and the Data section can't be selected.

A data connection, eg GPRS, will be turned on automatically when connection manager determines that it is the 'cheapest' connection to use. No ROM that I've ever tried will let you turn it on per say using the GUI. If you are having problems using a data conneciton, it's probably best to check the defaults selected in the connection settings or in the registry.

To turn it off, the GUI should work, but sometimes it's a bit slow to update, i.e. to realise that there is a data connection present.
