Connecting to GPRS message

[Guest babyjosef17]

Something funny happened to me yesterday.

When I am in the train going to work I surf the internet. On certain stations I loose my 3G connection and my whole phone signal as well. So once I pass that station my 3h will try to reconnect.

I do not know what I did but yesterday, even though I can see clearly that ym 3G is trying to connect. I do not get the "Connecting to GPRS" message. WHICH IS GREAT !!! everytime I loose connection and browser tries to reconnect, I do not get the message anymore.

Unfortunately, today it is back. hehe. I wonder what did I change? But I really cannot remember changing any setting. Altough is there any specific setting to permanently hide the "connecting to GPRS" display that anyone knows already?

THANKS!!

Yeah, there's a registry key to permanently hide that "Connecting..." message, but sadly it's in a txt in my house, so I'll have to get back to you later. But rest assured that it can be achieved! :)

simply use the registry to unhide the windows setting icon.... than tap setting-sound and notification-notification-and select connection...simply uncheck "show message on screen" ... finished...

no need of anything different! just look better!

I have been using WM for years, and that F'n POS notice has plagued my GD screen. Thank F*&^ you told me about this. Of course, i now feel like a complete Dumb#$% for having not figured this out on my own......

A calm has washed over me now.

Which setting do you have to change in the registry?

[Guest triplex76]

to unhide windows setting icon?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Hidesettings =0

that's all to have full access to a lot of windows stuff!

a similar story applies to samsung today!

after editing manually in the registry about all the shortcuts i would have ... i found it was enough to push on the shortcut to change it!

LOL

Thanks a lot for this. Forgot about the windows settings. I should unhide it again. I always forget to unhide it after I hard reset. thanks I will try it.

*** Update **

Yes I have done it now. Changed both to vibrate instead of showing a message. At least with this I will be alerted, but will not see an annoying message in the screen for all to see how unstable my Providers 3G connection is. haha!

Well I just don't want them to think it because of the phone why connection is not stable. IT NOT THE PHONE DAMMIT! You in a train moving 60KPH, with a weak provider, what do you expect!? LOL If only I can say that to the guy next to me on the train staring at my phone browsing.

Thanks again!!
