Data always connected after 3.5?

This may be a dumb question and it may have already been covered, but after installing saridnour's 3.5pr5, the data connection is always on and I am concerned that I will be billed out of every bodily orifice for data usage. Is it possible to set it to only connect and check every half hour or so, like it was before 3.5?

data has been always connected since 2.1

so there's no way to have it just connect every half hour or so, check email and then disconnect?

hrmm i noticed my data is always connected too now(ever since 3.5). Now it takes even more rings to reach me if someone tried to call.

So, quick question. Will being always connected to PCS vision have any effect on my phone calls and such? because I just added the Power Vision Pack to my phone and noticed that I too stay connected after it dialed #777 the first time...

I have NO idea what you guys are doing, but your data shouldn't always be connected unless you set it that way? I've been using Saridnours ROMS since PR3 i believe and not one of them has had an "always on" connection.

mgioia2--If you use Exchange ActiveSync for push mail it is quite normal to have an always-on data connection. Maybe that's where your setup is different.

If i want my email sync'd, i just run it at that time. I don't need it for work or anything, so i don't have it constantly sync'ing. That's probably the deal.

Ok, Now I'm seriously confused too... Because my data connection never disconnects itself once I connect, and I dont use exchange activesync at all. Is there a setting somewhere that I could have missed that makes the connection always on?
