Looking forward for the answer, thanks!!!
Any ideas?
any ideas
sync
hello,
when you sync with your pc you have to choose the internet scroll option in the sync program.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks kreptor! Yes I did, but once if you disconnect with your pc, it will auto download the weather information through your gprs/ 3G, and this will charge you $. So that's why I'm looking for a way to auto update with hotsync only like the "quick gps" in Diamond. Anyway thanks for your help!
again... any solution yet?
I need too!
I need too!! somebody has some idea, thanks in advance!!

Does anyone know how to stop the ActiveSync program from automatically running when it is not hooked up to my PC? I try to keep programs Iam not using from running to keep my battery from running down. Any advise would be appreciated.

- In ActiveSync, go to Schedule and enable Manual.
- In Phone settings, go to Time Zones tab, and uncheck Automatic change time zone and clock.
That should do it!
You can also install QuickMenu. There's an option to stop ActiveSync when you unplug it from your PC. That works perfect for me. (Combined with above settings)
Thank you for the advise.

In ActiveSync schedule is always greyed out so it's not selectable whether the phone is plugged in or not, sychronizing or sychronized. So how do I do it?!?

Go to settings for HTC home weather (where you select city) and de-select autoupdate.
This has been covered in other threads.
ok gonna help you out.. here's what you do:
let it update when u click over and then once it's done click on the town name in the top left of the weather tab. It will take you to "Select City" menu. From there click Menu at the bottom right and go to "Weather Options". Once you're in there, uncheck "Download weather data automatically*"
Actually, you'll find the Auto Update is pants anyway.
Maybe it's city based, but London is never updated, so when I click on it always as to connect to update. This is on a Vario III / TMobile version of the Kaiser.
Found this on the TYTN2 as well.
So, just don't click on Weather, and you'll be fine!

I think you will find this is an operator specific problem and nothing to do with the thread question.

Oh, OK - Any more information on this?
Did T-Mobile disable this part of the HTC Menu?
Will installing a HTC Menu cab fix this?
I realise this is a little off topic, and that my answer was a cheeky swipe and not a helpful answer, but a brief come back would be appreciated.

If you cant update with your operator, no changing of the SW will fix this. Try updating the weather when you have an active WiFi or Activesync internet connection.

Sorry, I have mis-informed you.
It willl update over GPRS, but whenever I click on the Weather tab, it's blank and says "Attempting to download data..." and then connects (GPRS is already connected) and after 8-12 seconds, updates the weather.
This is despite it being set to Auto Update - hence my comment that Auto Update is "pants", and is not going to use data unless you actually click on the weather tab.........
Any idea on how to fix this are greatly appreciated.
It's not a big thing, but it's annoying.
I think it's just using a different definition of "auto update" - it isn't meant to be updating in the background, which seems to be what you're after. In fact, if it did, I suspect many more would complain!
All "auto update" means is that it will go off and get the latest weather if you click on that tab, and it hasn't been updated in the last x minutes. If you don't have "auto update" on, it won't, and you'll have to specifically ask it to.

As far as I know, that is the normal function of the auto update and thats why the originator of the thread is asking why it tries to connect to his non-active GPRS connection when he clicks on it. Auto update is not some form of regular timed update. This method prevents data access usage when you dont need it (costs money to most!).
Autoupdate updates when you select the weather icon or when you connect to the internet via Activesync, when deselected, you have to tell it to update yourself.
Hope that makes sense.

Oh, I See.
Well I know several TYTN2 / Vario3 owners who feel (like I do) that "Auto Update" should be Automatic, not when you trigger (a manual request) it by opening the tab.
I can see that for non flat rates data tarrifs this could become an issue, but then un-checking "Auto Update" would be a sensible option........
However, if that's how it's supposed to work, so be it.
Hi everyone, I searched the forums but couldn't find an answer to this...
I'm using the HTC Home plugin which is great but I was wondering which internet connection the Weather tab is using to get updates on the weather...It refreshes the weather information when my wireless is turned off...is it going through gprs, tzones? I cant find any information on how to control how frequently it updates the weather information...is there a way to only limit it to wifi...i dont want to rack up a huge data bill....any help would be much appreciated!!!

Edit/Delete Message
During the last couple of days, everytime I try to update the GPS data, QuickGPS gives the message "COnnection failed. Please try again later".
Please note that Internet is working in all the programs.
Did anyone else get this?
Same here, no idea how to fix it.
Sorry for this, but I really need to bump this
Lack of QuickGPS is very annoying. Does it work for everybody else? If so, perhaps somebody could post his/her relevant registry entries please?
Mine works perfectly well, just updated the info now.
Up untill 3 days ago i could only update through gprs and NOT through wifi.
Then it changed so now i can update only through wifi and NOT through gprs.
I tell you these devices have their own brain!!!
OK, I did a hard reset and now it works - but hopefully you won't have to. I saved the registry state immediately after the reset - so compare these values with yours. Perhaps the solution is there.

Thanks Pedmond,
For the posting of the default registry.
I hit the same problem as well, and attempted to recover from the problem by playing around with the registry based on your post. I attempted the values for older versions of QuickGPS. Alas, all my attempts are futile.
Like you, I need to do a hard reset to recover. So it appears that this version of QuickGPS utilises stuffs beyond the registry.
In any case, should the problem reappears, I was thinking of downloading the Xtra.bin file from xtra1.gpsonextra.net and update the file (in /TEMP and /Windows) and time stamp in the registry manually.
Cheers.
same damnation here.
i've tried a hard reset... nothing happens.
what does make it stuck!?!?!?!?
i'm going crazy.
solution needed.
PLEASE.
After I've tried with different registry settings without luck, I've found on another forum a workaround that solved the "Could not connect. Try again later" issue. I though to share it:
1. Open IE (this is what I've tried, it might work with Opera as well) and access Internet (any WEB page you want). This is for "activating" the Internet connection, doesn't matter if it's on WI-FI, Active Sync, GPRS, etc.
2. Open QuickGPS and click "download". Now it should work.
This is NOT preserved even after a soft-reset, I've checked.
P.S. I've posted this on the other thread as well (QuickGPS and 1.93 ROM)
same problem here. the only way to update is when sync with PC.

It works like a lighting strike!
I don't know why, but it works , maybe a sticky one for all of us (those who search for "normal solution" round 'n round )?
Thank you so much (i hope to discover why does it work )
Update region for QuickGPS to work
I noticed that the registry key HKLM\Software\HTC\QuickGPS\region was set to "IN" (for India). I changed that to "US" and QuickGPS has started working. I can click on Download and it downloads and updates remaining time correctly.
Odd, I checked my registry also because I was having the same problem. But my region was --, changed to US and worked like a champ
hello,
if i understand you right, it was only a region problem?
ouagh , grrrrrrr, $%##
i have the problem after i think that my diamond was perfect,
with very spend of time for installation and a backup at the fault time ...
this was a realy good tip for me for the next time
thank you.
okokur
can´t get it to work at all, suddenly I couldn´t connect with QGPS anymore. Tried IE fix and changed region butno luck at all. any other ideas?
is there a way to reinstall the program?
After I install BB Connect I can't update QuickGPS. Any1 the same problem?
Hi i have set my Diamond to check my email every 30mins but it does not turn off the GPRS once its checked it. is there a software or tweak that will allow me to do this.
Blumin COSTLY!!!!
Use Schap´s Advanced Config to select a timeout for an idle data connection (amongst so many other things/tweaks.....)....
Sorry can you show step by step where to config the timeout?
THX in advance.
Thanks for the reply i used schaps but it does not state a time out period.
From anywhere in the application go down to bottom right hand side and tap menu
then go to connection settings, there you should see a box with Disconnect after and a selection of timings. Hope this helps.
Hi,
and thanks for your help...I supposed it could be the right setting, but I thought that by doing it, it will stop any kind of data connection, even if I'm on the web. I mean it should stop data connection anyway according to the setting...no metter if system is checking for new mail or I'm with safari on the web...
I think that it will only stop data connection if there is no action for xxx minutes, ie if there is no information being transferred. So, if you are actively browsing or downloading email or whatever, then it won't shut the connection down.
Well...tested and it worked...at least for mail chaking...now I have to test it with safari on...
Thanx a lot again!
