Since I do not use an exchange server I have done this as a matter of course to prevent AS from periodically trying to connect by itself.

Or do you have another way?

EDIT 03/19: I checked today on my just-flashed 6.1, the EVDO icon acts normally, white arrows when connected, gray when dormant. I have set the AS connection interval to manual as before. Thanks!
