Ok I wish I could remember who originaly posted the cab so he could get credit for it, it is on here some where.
Anyway here it is, as I understand it the only change was the configuration mentioned above.

1. Locate the directory where the Bing app was installed (this depends on whether it was your storage card or internal memory )
\Program Files\Bing\

2. Locate the "Bing.config" file.

3. Open the config file (or a copy of the file if you want to be safe) in any text editor, whether on your PC, Mac, or on the phone itself. ( I copied the file to a PC and used Word Pad.

4. locate this line:
<add key="UseAppServerUpdates" value="True"/>

5. change the above line to the following:
<add key="UseAppServerUpdates" value="False"/>

(note: you changed one word from True to False)

6. Put the modified file back where you found it, with the same name as when you found it.

7. Launch Bing. Turn on GPS or do whatever you usually do to get the nag. You shouldn't get the nag anymore.

good luck. I don't think posting the modified config file is a good idea either. I don't know what device specific settings are in it, even if it's from another Intrepid.

Thanks a lot, that seemed to do it.

I think most of the HTC phones released after the TP2 do have headset jacks but that doesn't help much any does it.



Regarding the constant resets to fix the internet. I have a feeling its a stupid simple fix but i just dread the call to CS to figure out what it is. On second thought i doubt they even have a clue what it is. ](*,)

Earlier this week I reported I wasn't having the internet problems other people were seeing.

Well it started happening, and while it appears I have an active connection at first, the error message pops up (cannot connect / 777) and I have to cycle the phone radio off and on to get anything to connect.

This has been about once per day for the last 2 days. sucky.

Anyone notice using the new bing, it can't see your contact addresses?

Also, no longer when you go to a contact, can you select find their address in bing.

Otherwise, I love the voice navigation.

Still trying to figure out this internet problem with the latest firmware.

It never seems to happen during weekdays (daytime) when the Exchange server is in an active connection (push) mode. It seems like if I keep the internet connection active, I don't see the problem. I keep exchange push on a daytime schedule so I don't have to hear work email coming in all night.

The times when I get the loss of internet is overnight, presumably when the data idles.

This weekend I went into a poor reception area and lost signal for a while. When I came back into civilization, it wouldn't get internet without cycling the radio.

Lastly, as a test over the last few days, I have set my non-exchange mail to check every 5 minutes. I'm assuming this might keep the connection alive (which may affect battery life: who knows?) but since I did that, I have not had the issues.

I'm still trying to figure this out.

Thanks for the info. Ill try it too. That same thought has crossed my mind but for some reason it didnt occur to me to change my email setting.

Yeah, you gotta go 32 bit to get it to run, I would definitely advise running updates on your phone, as well as your active sync mobile, before trying to perform the flash. Also, don't do it unless you have about three hours to blow. I thought it would take forever! Now that I have it, it appears to have improved the device considerably. I am still testing, but several of the bugs appear to have been resolved.

Can you tell us what bugs you see as being fixed?
Thanks

It certainly doesn't lock up nearly as much for me.
