Hi Guys

Is there a way that the "negotiating data connection" dialog can be hidden with a registry change on WM5?

Reason being I'm developing a flash lite data driven app for a device specific service with issued handsets to users during a corporate event. I'm going to make the Flash Lite app using a loop to regularly try accessing the data connection to keep it alive, but there is a possibility the signal will disappear and reappear as people walk around.

Basically I've found users get confused by the OS messages in this case and I don't want the usual "Connecting to 3G" message to make them think there's a problem if it can't connect.

If there's no data connection - My app will store data locally until getting back into an area of coverage, then reconnect and send data.

Regards

Derek

try this, go into phone settings, sounds and notifications, and for event select "connection established.

you can then uncheck the box that says "display message on screen"
