HELP! keep getting 'no service'! Please! - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

for some reason, my phone keeps going to 'no service'. i have set it to gsm for network type and auto for gsm/umts.
i installed the no data cab because my phone always keep getting connected to the internet after turning off data connection and 3g. i even went into task manager and i don't know what else to disable that connects to the internet. that's why i installed the no data cab.
after installing the no data cab i noticed the 3g is turned on in communication manager, and i get the bars and see the big H. i turn off the 3g, and then i get no service, but then no service again.
i then went into network connection and chnaged gsm to auto. and now it works with the big H and the 3g is turned on, but even when 3g is turned on, i can't connect to the net unless i toggle in the no data cab program.
anyone please help!

radio issue?
do you think it's a radio issue?

i think its just telling you that ur in a 3g/HSPA area not that ur actually connected to 3g

but it didnt do that before, it would just be no service and I would have to change to 3g..not sure why.

True, the 3G or H icon will sometimes show up to tell you that those signals are present, even if the phone is not actually connected to them.
The toggle in the Comm Manager is basically useless. It will connect automatically if you open your browser or other program that uses the data connection, even if the Data Connection is toggled "off". The only exception is if you are Airplane Mode.
If I remember correctly, you also need to toggle the Data Connection off in the Comm Manager, after you toggle "off" in NoData. I don't think NoData can shutdown a data connection that is already open. So I guess the bottom line is that you have to use BOTH the Comm Manager and NoData to toggle the data connection off and on.

radio reflash
So the odd thing is, no issue occured after I reflashed a different radio. Maybe it was the radio? But yes, I do have to use NoData and CommManager together. I had to soft reset after installing.

Data Button can't be selected

The Data Button (#5) in the Comm Manager can't be selected to turn it on most of the time. After I turned the data (EDGE) off to use Wifi it can't be turn back on.
Anyone else having this prob?
bumpity bump
You shouldn't needity need to turnity turn it offity off.
If Wifi is connected you will use Wifi... And if the data button is grayed out it means there is no data connection anyways.
Wifi is not connected and I do need to turn data on. The Wifi could be turned off and it still does this.
i think it will only turn on when you use a program that uses data. i could be wrong, i noticed that to but didnt really pay much attention to it.
I could be using Opera Mini and the Data section can't be selected.
A data connection, eg GPRS, will be turned on automatically when connection manager determines that it is the 'cheapest' connection to use. No ROM that I've ever tried will let you turn it on per say using the GUI. If you are having problems using a data conneciton, it's probably best to check the defaults selected in the connection settings or in the registry.
To turn it off, the GUI should work, but sometimes it's a bit slow to update, i.e. to realise that there is a data connection present.

how to disable data connection

How I disallow any application to connect to the internet in HD?
Just to make sure not charged.
no data from modaco
is that just for grps? I am using 3g. was wondering whether that will work or not.
use HD tweak
there's is an option to disable data connection, for people who are on vacation
I personally find that HD Tweak doesn't always work for all roms, and if you try to connect t to wifi using certain apps, GPRS is still used.
Use No Data and toggle off connection so only wifi is avilable for phone to use, therefore no data connection. If you want to use data connection at any time, toggle it back on. Simple, yet effective
Well guys I tried installed nodata.cab and did a reboot.
But it still activates my 3G or if available HSPDA connection.
Am I missing somthing?
But on the other hand, the on of switch of your data connection should do just that.....stay off. Whats the use of an off switch if it self activates all the time. Imagine all your light coming on at home when it gets dark!

Have you toggled it off in the app?, i.e. Internet & WAP
I have HD Tweak installed but none of the settings used, but I find that when using the 3G internet, if I press the end call key (bottom right) once, it ends internet connection for me. If I hold the end key down its set to keypad lock.
no data doesn't work at all for 3g hspda connection. That is a dangerous application name I would say.

not automatically connecting to 3G (T-Mo w/ WMLonglife)

I installed WM Longlife and I didn't like the popups that came everytime I opened an application that wanted to connect to the internet; so I uninstalled it. Then I noticed that my TP2 will no longer connect to 3G automatically even when I was in several different 3G zones. I installed Longlife again and used their switcher to connect to 3G and it worked. I tried tweaking the settings back to normal and then uninstalling it again, but the same problem with automatic connection occurred again. As we speak, my phone is sitting in a 3G network but is connected to EDGE.
Any thoughts?
Man, I have the same problem! Im using a Touch Pro, but same bad!
check to see if 3G is disabled. You could be locked on to just GSM instead of of GSM/WCDMA.
Settings>Phone>Band & make sure they're both set to Auto
You all crack me up
Hard reset time
I have the same issue. My phone doesnt connect to 3G ever...ive seen the icon change from Edge to 3G but very fast...it doesnt stay on. hmmm I hope tmobile or someone here finds a fix for it..i feel like im missing out using Edge..
If the advice posted by xnifex doesn.t work here is what you could do (other than hard reset ), reinstall wmlonglife, soft reset, wait the app to load, than chose from ,,band switcher,, 3g auto, wait till you see the taskbar icons change to 3g. Now you can uninstall the app (used to happen to me too)

Switching between Wi-Fi and 4G LTE

Ok when I connect to any Wi-Fi, it automatically changes to LTE for a couple seconds, then connect to Wi-Fi again, after about 25 seconds it happens again and like that, last time I used 1.5GB streaming because it showed was Wi-Fi connected, not data
Reset the apn settings on Acces point names
thats worked for me
So I deleted the apn settings and add it again still the same I tried to turn off the mobile data and still the same, don't know what to do
UPDATE: Deactivate the battery saver mode fix it, once you activate it, still the same .-_-

Mobile data stops working, a reboot fixes it.

Hi,
I think it happens after a system profile switch when jumping my my car, the profile turns
the wifi off otherwise the bluetooth keeps dropping out. then I get out of the car and wifi is
turned back on, but I might not be in range of a wifi, so I'm relying on lte, but my mobile signal
strength icon just says telstra, and mobile data doesn't work. If I reboot, the icon says lte and
data works.
got any ideas?
with the system profiles, I don't change the prefered network type, but I've tried setting it to LTE
with no effect.
oh I just had a thought, there's a setting somewhere about turning off mobile data when wifi is on,
and there was a warning that it might make switching from wifi to mobile data slower. but I can't find
that atm, and it does seem like it would cause my issue.
