I am using a free 30 day data tarriff trial from Vodafone at the moment so decided to alter the sync options on Windows Live to check for new mail every 15 mins or so, it looks like it has done this but the problem is when it started the GPRS connection last night, it did not disconnect it, so I woke this morning to find my diamond had been connected to the GPRS Data Connection for over 8 and a half hours !!!!

I had used Diamond Tweak, etc to tell it to kill any GPRS/3G Connections after 1 minute of inactivity but it does not seem to be working when I test it, can someone point me to the reg keys so I can alter them myself, I want WM to kill any 3G / GPRS Connections after 1 minute of inactivity.

If I had not been on this data tarriff thing I shudder to think how much my diamond could have cost me overnight :confused:

Many thanks guys.

P.s I posted in the ROM section as I am having a go at building my own rom and such so want to make sure that when I have the keys and hve tested they work, I can cook them into the rom so I don't forget them.

hi, try this... it's taken from a script but reg keys are readable ;)

## TURN OFF GPRS AUTOMATICALLY, UNCOMMENT NEXT LINE TO DISABLE THIS TWEAK ##
#RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings","CacheTime",60)
#RegWriteMultiString("HKLM","\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings","SuspendResume",Array("GPRS_bye_if_device_off"))

Maybe try this?

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction]
"NoGPRSAutoAttach"=dword:00000001

And GPRS will be connected ONLY by demand....

Thanks but this is also set via DiamondTweak / Advanced Config.

Thanks for your help guys, I have hunted around myself a bit and can't find a proper fix, for the moment I just make sure I disconnect the session when I let it update my emails etc.
