Connection Priority

Hi everyone,
Just got my new Kaiser, actually it's an Orange TYTN II, after disabling all of the orange junk and installing pocketCM, it's almost useable. But i've got a little question regarding this phone.
If you are connected by both Wifi and 3G simultaneously, which connection would take priority, i would hope it would be wifi, but am not sure, and haven't installed any gprs/3g monitoring software yet as i have no SD card.
It's my work phone, and a lot of people are wondering about this same question, so i thought i would consult the experts
Thanks in advance!

WiFi seems to take priority on mine.

My edge or my 3g takes over my wifi. I wonder if there is a setting you can set to where it chooses the wifi over the other, other than d/c your E or 3g.

3G issues with T-Mobile

Since a couple of weeks ago, I seem to be having problems getting a solid connection. I have my device set to check mail every 4 hours and latest PhoneAlarm to dis after 2 mins.
What happens is a get a 3G connection, no data is transfered so Outlook hangs on connecting and the PA software does not dis. Since no data is transfered is not costing me. Sometimes it connects fine, does'nt seem to be a local problem.
Do I need to check settings?? Anyone got them? The phone is HTC branded straight out of box.
Thanks

Connecting to network takes longer suddenly

Yesterday I had some problems with my phone suddenly, one thing was the connection to my provider (T-mobile NL).
So I did a hard reset, everything worked fine again except that particular problem.. I tried other radio's but that didn't work either.
It takes about 10 minutes for the phone to get on the network. GPRS doesn't work for some reason but when I turn 3G on I can connect to HSDPA (I leave 3G off when I don't need it to save battery time.
I also bought a second battery yesterday and tested it. I now have the original battery in it again and still the same problem. Normally it connects in 5 seconds. I don't think it's a network problem because my T-mobile Prepaid simcard in a sony ericsson k750i works just fine.
Any ideas anyone? Send for repair ?

EZ just change "wap.voicestream.com" to "epc.tmobile.com" and just select "The network connects to the Internet" DONOT select "The Nerwork uses a proxy server to connrct to the Internet" that all. good luck

Slingplayer Issues?

Does anyone else out there have Slingplayer installed on their Captivate? They don't offer any trial version so I shelled out $30 for this piece of software and I can't get it to work. It works fine over WiFi at home, but it won't work right over 3G. I originally posted this issue in the Slingbox forums but I thought I'd repost here since XDA members tend to actually know something about cell phones/technology.
Here is my original post on Slingbox forums: http://answers.slingbox.com/message/13962#13962
Here is the issue:
When I try to play video over 3G it stops after a second or two and plays choppy after that (and I don't mean a little choppy, I mean like audio will come back for a second every minute or two). It used to work fine on my old phones but just to test it, I put my sim card back in my old Tilt 2 and tried out SlingPlayer. I was able to get a steady stream with decent quality and no cut outs. I also went to mobilespeedtest.com and did a 2MB test with my Tilt 2 and got around 1300KBPS. Then, I put the sim back in my Captivate and tried to watch from the exact same spot. It played for the first 2 seconds then the video stopped. The menus still worked so the program wasn't hung or anything, the stream just stopped coming in. I then exited SlingPlayer and loaded up mobilespeedtest.com on my Captivate. On the 2MB test, I got aprox 3500KBPS. Almost 3 times the bandwidth of my Tilt 2 and I coudln't watch the stream at all.
Since the video worked on my Tilt 2, it can't be an issue with my slingbox and router setup at home. Also, my Captivate gets faster download speeds so it can't be an issue related to bandwidth.
It works fine over WiFi when I'm at home, but it refuses to work over 3G. I also got poor results over WiFi from a location outside my home. Seems like it has trouble with going to an external IP address? Again, my slingbox works fine on my other phone and on computers that are outside my network so it can't be a slingbox/router configuration issue. The only device with trouble is the Captivate. Since the slingplayer mobile software got 4.5 stars in the marketplace, I'd imagine its working good on other phones and the issue is with the Captivate/Galaxy S phones. Thoughts?

I have sling player on my captivate and it streams fine over the 3g network. Sometimes it does cut out but thats only when I have really crappy 3g coverage. I wish I had some advice for ya, but I just wanted to write and let you know that it's working great for me over 3g. So the program does work on the captivate without issues. I'm wondering what the issue could be.

Thanks for your reply. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Slingplayer. It still gives me trouble over 3g, regardless of signal strength. Basically, when I turn on SlingPlayer it will stream just fine if I have good 3g signal. But once I change channels, it looses the video stream. I can still hear the audio, but the video freezes and won't comeback until I disconnect and reconnect. Are you able to change channels without issue?

i have sling player working fine on my euro i9000 and it works fine over 3g as long as you have good signal.. i have a feeling that yours is not working well because of at&t limiting the 3g upload speed which also affects downlolad..

I have at&t and it work fine for me also. I guess the only thing i can say is make sure you don't have other stuff in the background working or taking up data

I have it as well.. I have AT&T and zero issues with 3g or wifi... works great.. sometimes it chops up when i first start it but for like 3 seconds then fine.

I also have the Slinglayer working without a problem.

[Q] Unique Question - Push notifications whilst on WiFi (PC as hotspot, on LTE)

OK, Let me preface this by saying this is a very Unique situation.
I'm currently travelling a lot for work, and this, do NOT have a fixed line connection (ADSL/Cable).
Currently in the Philippines, I have a prepaid LTE sim which I am using in a Sierra Wireless LTE Card which I brought over from Australia. It works flawlessly, laptop (Sony Vaio SV13 on Win 7 64 pro) works very well with it, speedy connection.
I also have an Xperia Z (been on .350, .434. and .253 stock ROMs, and now on eXistenZ v3, all display same issue) with the same prepaid LTE sim card from SMART (telco in PH), and it works brilliantly too (on LTE, 3G is garbage). Since both the modem and the phone are on the same network, and its fine when using LTE on the phone, it shouldnt be the network. In addition, the "keep wifi on during sleep" setting is OFF.
When I'm out and about, the phone gets all my push notifications on time, no complaints, but when I'm in the hotel room, I want to be able to use the Laptop's LTE connection (it seems a bit stronger, and also because the phone tends to use less battery on WiFI than on LTE).
So, Sony has a built in WiFi router option, but it doesnt work for 3G/4G cards. So upon searching I've found a few alternatives.
1. Beetmobile (works well, but still drops push notifications)
2. Connectify.me (not tried yet)
3. MyPublicWifi (works well, push seems a bit better than beet, but still not perfect)
So I've used 1 and 3, both are free options, and they work ok. BUT whenever I'm connected to my PC, Push notifications just start being stupid. When freshly connected, its fine, but then after a short while (anywhere from 2 minutes to 10), it seems as if Push notifications just get "stuck". I can still access web, FB, instagram just fine, but when I open say whatsapp/hangouts/gmail/exchange mail they can sometime seem like they are hanging. If i switch back to LTE on handset, all of a sudden they all come in. Go back on WiFi (via PC LTE), it would be ok for a few minutes then start hanging again....
I have an iPad too, and that displays the same symptoms (a bit better because at least the Hangouts app on IOS can refresh manually so i have a better indication of whether it is working).
Now, I'm not a networking expert, but am technically versed. Anyone have any ideas how I can make it work? (i suspect the PC/software/lte modem must have something that is timing out, or port being periodically accessed). Or has anyone tried connectify.me and can confirm it works in this scenario? (I'd easily shell out $40 to get this working, but I want to make sure it actually does work, and the free version does not support 3/4G cards..
Oh, and I'm rooted at the moment, and have downloaded "PNF" and have wifi hearbeat set to 1 min...still same
thanks!

oh and it also happens when the phone is on, not just on screen off.
