Hi
I noticed that leaving my gprs connection on all the time drains the battery faster than when it is off. For the widgets such as the weather application, it will only update every 4 hours when there is an active internet connection. Is there a way to set the phone to auto connect to gprs when a widget/app requests it and then automatically disconnect after transfer is complete?
This would significantly improve my battery life instead of leaving gprs connected all day when it is not in use.

Go to settings, internet connections, choose "always ask", then save.
To manually connect to the web, you can either tap on the web "globe icon", any bookmark site,etc. It will prompt you to connect to internet or GPRS.
To connect or disconnect just tap the top screen icons (battery or 3g/2G network icon). A drop down menu will appear. Info about battery, profile, clock.alarm, internet connections, bluetooth, usb. Tap the internet connection and will give you options/selections. from there you can connect or disconnect from internet.

I do not want to manually connect to the internet, I want it to automatically connect when widgets/apps request data at their intervals, once data transfers have been done I want it to disconnect the gprs connection. That would improve battery life since I noticed that just leaving the gprs connection running all day drains the battery faster even when not in use.
