Say you make an active data connection (log into Vision). After "X" time, that connection idles out (arrows go gray instead of active white). Can we define what "X" is? So technically there'd be two "X"s: one for Idle, one for time out (connection closes). From my experience, I have not heard of a reg tweak for that but maybe there is. An easy alternative way would involve using AEB+ and the "close connection" feature found in the Action list or map it to a hard key. |

I think there are a number of reasons why someone would want this.
If someone was using their phone as a modem and wanted it to disconnect after "X" number of minutes, if they didnt have the "right" data plan. If they have a number of applications that check periodically for updates, and for some reason the EVDO connection fails and doesn't drop after "X" minutes. If an application is acting strange, you wouldn't want it running continuously, and wanted to ensure that it didn't stay connected all the time. I am sure there are any other number of reasons why. Just a question to see if there was a setting that could be set to always connected, stay conneced while idle or disconnect after "X" minutes. Thanks! |

Well understand that if an application makes connections via the internet usually they are programmed to re-make connections, so closing out a data connection will not ever prevent a program from re-connecting.
I really think your best bet would be to use AE Button Plus to just manually close out the connection when you want to as I don't see this happening. It's too program specific and can be over-rided by any program. |

I dont think AE Button plus will help.
The idea is that a program will start up the EVDO connection and update itself ( every few hours ) and when it is done updating, the EVDO connection stays open. Assigning a button to manually close the connection doesnt make sense since I already have the ability to click on the EVDO icon and click "Disconnect". There have been times when I have checked and I have had an Active EVDO session for 3 or 4 hours, and I havent looked at the phone in 5 or 6 hours. I just want to be able to define in the Registry a setting somewhere that would allow me to change a default to "If not active programs using EVDO, then Default = 5 mins" or something so that I am not connected to an active EVDO session constantly. I have to think that having a constant connection on EVDO uses more power than not being connected. Correct? |

Has anything new or additional been reported on this? I have looked all over and cannot seem to find anything beyond requests for this feature.
I have a verizon 6700 and believe this was the way the phone worked with the AKU 2.x, but the AKU 3.x versions seem keep the evdo connection active until it is manually closed. So far it's the only issue I have with the AKU 3.x roms. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, |
