#777 undoing the data disconnect hack :/

kabuk1 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-23-2009, 02:21 AM

Apparently I cannot have my cake & eat it too with this phone. I use Adv. Config to set the data to disconnect after 1 minute, then I use SKtools's reg editor to change the GPRS_if_bye setting in the registry to #777. So theoretically I should now be able to not worry about a constant data connection sucking my battery dry, nor should I have any problems answering it if I'm on an active data connection, right? WRONG. I have found that the #777 edit somehow disables the automatic disconnect setting even though it still says it's enabled. I have sat & watched the arrows & they just don't disconnect. I have to manually disconnect the data. It works just fine if I leave the GPRS key intact, but then I can't answer my phone when it rings.

My question is- why does it do this? Does anyone have these same results with these 2 edits & has anyone figured out a workaround? I don't wanna have to choose between the 2. I've been choosing the #777 over auto-DC but I'd like to have both.

try this:

Code:

HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\
Set "SuspendResume" to 58 00 00 00 33 00 99 00 88 00 39 00 58 00 39 00 29
Set "CacheTime" to 60

Thanks. This seems to work except that it wakes the device & goes to 1x whenever it disconnects.

EDIT- NM, it only did that once. Works great. Thanks!

What does this registry change do exactly?
(What is different in this value than just #777?)

EDIT: this does not work for me, the data does not disconnect, also when a call comes in it lets you answer but there is a 3 second delay between the time i slide accept and the call connects...

This CAB seems to solve a few things.

Better battery (it does seem to take a slight amount of power in standby).
It solves the #777 Popup messages.
It solves the the Hangup issues.

But I noticed the Brain Dead HTC weather didn't update. I suspect it may be 60 seconds is too short so I bumped it 120 seconds.

So that Cab will automatically disconnect my net connection, after it lets say, syncs my mail or updates my weather? or is it a tweak to an actual program?

yeah, it's supposed to automatically disconnect your data after 1 minute of non-use (after updating weather, email, browsing, etc)
