Data connection (packet data) always ON on E71

My E71 connects to Paket Date all the time.

I purposly close it by pressing "red button" but after disconnection I can see my Nokia again dials 3G data connection to the network.

When I check running apps - only home screen. Then why my E71 always tries to connect to Internet?

Is there some settings about it?

Or how to check which app requests the connection?

I check connection manager: few  kBs downloaded... I am strugglin with it for about a month.

[ Edited ]

Go to Settings > connection(in my M73me) or connectivity >packet data > packet data conn > change it to "When needed"

 

This makes ur Packet data connection to go off completely and establishes connection only if u want to do so

 

 

check out....

Re: Data connection (packet data) always ON on E71

Thanks, I tried it already:

 

Packet data connection:When needed

Access Point: None

High Speed packet access: Enabled

 

Now I am looking to this menu item on my device and see symbol which shows E71 is online with packet data access (on the right top courner).

Re: Data connection (packet data) always ON on E71

hi,

 

do you have one of the following apps installed:

  • nokia email
  • sportstracker
  • weather app
  • maps
  • ..any other app that needs  internet connection

go through them and make sure that they are not configured to use data connections at all times.

Re: Data connection (packet data) always ON on E71

Something you installed or set-up (Email, Messaging) or some application is activating the data link.

Do you have any applications running?
Long press the Menu key to see the applications that are open.then close them

 

 

 

Go to Tools->Settings->Connections->Packet Data then change the option "Packet data connection" to When needed as opposed to "When available"


If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

Re: Data connection (packet data) always ON on E71

Hey all, thanks for comments.

It appeard thatI have installed application called Lotus Notes Traveler which allows reading and syncing mail with Lotus/Domino. This app is not shown when u check running programms (long press of home button in E71) but it keeps data link up all the time. Although it is taking much traffic but it drains battery.

I switched sync off and found that my E71 is no longer building connection by itlself. So I believe it is the root cause.
