Disable GPRS/Data and Have WiFi on Demand ONLY [with Solution] - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi All,
I am using HTC TD2 with latest Stock ROM 6.5.3. And I want to Disable GPRS/Data and Have WiFi on Demand ONLY.
I know we have many tools to achive this like: "NoData" and "TD2 Tools". But I do not want to use these Tools and set the setting of my own. These are good tools But...
NoData will disable Data/GPRS, but Can't make WiFi on demand. When the TD2 Tool can do both (or can give me what I want), but I do not want use this tool ONLY for this SINGLE purpose (I am not using other services of this tool).
So This is how I want:
I disable the data connection by Settings -> Connections -> Advanced and select "My Work Network" instead of GPRS/Internet connection. So this prevents me to use the GPRS Connection.
Now the Other One:
Can one of you suggest how should I edit the settings of the "My Work Network" to use WiFi when demand? Or is there any Registry edit that will make WiFi on Demand instead of Connect when phone is used
PS: The WiFi Ondeamnd feature was existed in the OLD 6.5 ROMs, but now Missing in 6.5.3 .
I had this POST @ TD2 forum, but no reply, so posting here to get some help .
Thanks.

Install DUN settings?

Is it possible to install / configure gprs settings, or add/remove dial up connections via a script?
I will have my own GPRS Bearer soon which all my devices will connect to, and im trying to make the device re-setup the connections after a hard reset. I would like to put some kind of script in the ROM that will setup the network settings.
Similar thing to the .dun files you can get for windows.
Hope you can help out
thanks.
Don't know about dun but found some cab files here which do what you want.
Can't remember the particular thread and it took alot of searching but they're on here somewhere ( search for "CDL o2 customsiation" and it might help)
Good luck - these simplified things alot for me. :lol:
Just done a quick search thru browsers history - heres the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=26463
now all i need to know, is how to make a custom one lol

how to disable GPRS

Any way to disable gprs in the handset. Some of my applications are using gprs for updating and my service provider is charging me like anything. I have wifi and want to use that alone for data... is there a setting somewhere which will help me in disabling GPRS
i tried the nodata ( nogprs) application but its not working for me

Do you need GPRS at all? If not, go to Settings->Connections->Connections->Manage existing and delete everything.
Setting > Connection and select "my work network" as internet connection instead of your provider's one.
You can change it back anytime you need to really use GPRS

In the registry you’ve got the following key:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections
Export this key to enable GPRS later on.
Go inside your data connections and you’ll find a key, “Enabled." This key has a value 1, change this for every connection to 0.
There, you're done.
You could try to go to the Comm Manager and disabling "Phone" and activating Wi-Fi.
Hope this helps!
Try the Moto Toggle Widget on the market. Requires root, but works

Turn off the 3G to only GPS

Hello
I have a HTC TyTN II.
I live in the Netherlands, and the connection of UMTS is not everywhere or very bad.
So if there is a program to turn off my 3G to only GPS connection, like it is install by the Scharp version of TyTN.
I hope someone have a cab file of it.
Regards
First, it´s GPRS, not GPS. Would have been more appropriate to post in the Kaiser´s main forum and not under accessories......
You don´t need a .cab for that.
Either read the manual, or use the forum´s search function or Telephone -> Menu -> Options -> Band -> network type -> select GSM.
If you want to switch back and forth more often, a more convenient way is a small program called "Bandswitch". Do a qucik search and you will find the relevant thread(s).
BTW: Welcome to this superb site!!

Blocking Data On HD

I recently got the HD, but since I live in Canada I figured it wasn't worth it to get a data plan (Can only use EDGE and prices are outrageous). As such, I'm wondering if there are any apps or methods to block data.
I would still want to be able to use wifi for internet and such, but stop EDGE from working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Goto the Comm Manager and turn Data Connection off? Don't know what that does to wifi which has a seperate on/off? That failing, could you not disable data from your operator?
what works for me is to set networks for automatic internet access to "company network":
Start - settings - connections tab - connections icon - extended tab - select networks - automatic internet access => set to company network
I have a german device so had to guess english names ... be warned.
if you make the change and try to update weather data you should get an error.
Set it back to your phone provider should make it connect (and charge you) again.
I called my carrier and asked for data transfer to be blocked.
Start - Settings - Connections
Tap the Connections icon
There you might see an entry for your mobile provider - in my case I see
"Vodafone Live"
- Add a new modem
- Edit my proxy server
- Manage existing connections
Tap 'Manage existing connections'
You will see a list of modems (in my case I see 'Vodafone Live')
Tab and hold the modem
Choose delete
Anyone tried MoDaCo's NoData utility?

dwnload tweaks 3.3. There is an option to disable one or al of your data connections.
You need to install compact framework 3.5 first (google it if unsure).

automatic edge/gprs/walk'n'web connections

I recently bought a used T-Mobile MDA Touch. Naturally it has T-Mobile finger prints all over it. If I active an application that requires the Internet, the phone connects to edge or gprs. It notifies me but doesn't need my permission. This can happen with my attention else where and since I am on a prepaid it can cost a lot of money that returns no value.
Any ideas or suggestions? Perhaps there's a switch or a or hack that would require my input before proceeding to these costly alternative?
Thanks in advance.
Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool can disable connections without rebooting system - if you need GPRS, you just start ACT, go to connections settings and tap connection you want to enable. When you don't need it, you disable it again. Works perfect for me
Thank you! Works for me, too. )
New, another invention: after blocking connection this way if you want to use it, you don't have to re-enable it. Just install Opal Comm Manager and set your connection as default in Settings -> |Connections| -> Connections. Tapping Data connection in Comm Manager will connect it, but other apps won't be able to do it Tested on Onyx 4.0.

Sorry I cant see how to do this. I have installed Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 and disabled GPRS, and I have Opal Comm Manager installed, but latter will not let me switch GPRS back on.
Can you clarify exactly how/where to "set the connection as default" so that I will not need to go back into Advanced Configuration Tool to re-enable it every time?
