How To: Auto Disconnect 3G on Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard

Most of you aware that having 3G turned on will drain your phone’s battery pretty quickly. Hence, you might want to enable auto disconnect from 3G (by default it won’t) whenever the data connection is not in use.

Step 1: Go to [Settings]->[Connections]->[Advanced]->[Options]
Step 2: Set "Idle disconnect after" to "30 seconds"
Step 3: With a Registry Editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\
Step 4: Change the value for [SuspendResume] from "~GPRS!" to "GPRS_bye_if_device_off"
Step 5: Reboot your phone

Note: If you are unable to complete step 1 and step 2 (i.e. if you are running Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional, etc.), use a registry editor and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\. Change the value for [CacheTime] to 30.
