Wi-Fi not working if Data Services (Mobile Network) is OFF

Today I had some issues with the Wi-Fi connection..
The problem is that under Manage Conections > MOBILE NETWORK Settings there is an option that says: "Data Services"... As it is under MOBILE NETWORK settings which is related to my network carrier, and I don't have any Data Plan I guessed that i could turn that to OFF...
So then a few minutes later I tried to use What's App, and there was no connection... so I tried using the Browser also without lucky.
Then after looking for something that could solve my problem without finding something usefull I decided to work on it by myself, so I rebooted the BB, my Home Router, cheking for Connection Diagnose under Wi-Fi options, but nothing seemed to work until I decided to turn ON the Data Services setting I was talking about before... and voilá it started working... 
I'm not sure if this is an actual problem or something else.. but I think that an option under Mobile Network should not being interfering with the Wi-Fi connection, just makes no logic at all...
BB 8900
OS 5.0.0.1036 (build 1682)
Only Wi-Fi.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Being under "Mobile Network" you would think it wouldn't affect it but it does.  In order to use wifi you have to have Data Services turned on.  It's always been this way...

  • Management Console is not working from Data Services Designer

    Hi,
    Management Console was working fine from DataServices Designer.
    We have reconfigured Tomcat Weserver to a different port.   The Management Console in the DataServices Designer is still pointing towards the old port and not working. Please advise how to change the port settings for the Management Console in the DataService Designer.
    Thanks.
    Raj.

    from the Designer, click on tools menu, select Options
    In the Options window, expand Designer node and select Environment
    Select host:port for the Administrator under (Default Administrator for Metadata Reporting), it should list both old and new ManagementConsole port

  • Populate ComboBox from database - NOT using Flex Data Services

    Hi there,
    We are using CF with Flex but are not using the Flex Data
    Service. I'm very much a newb and I'm having trouble finding any
    information on how to populate controles from a database without
    using Flex Data Service. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    First I have a page... JobSearch.mxml that contains a combo
    box that I want to populate with the job_id and job_title from a
    MSSQL database.
    In Flex in the RDS DataView I used the "Create CFC" Wizard
    which generated "job.cfc" and "jobGateway.cfc". It also generated
    "job.as".
    The CF Function that selects the data appears to be defaulted
    and called "load" and the .as function is called simply "job".
    So, that all looks great. But I can't find any information on
    what I need to have on my JobSearch.mxml to actually get this data
    into the comboBox.
    I did:
    <mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    [Bindable]
    public var jobData:job = null;
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    And then:
    <mx:ComboBox
    text="{jobData.job_title}"></mx:ComboBox>
    But I'm being told "Type was not found or was not a
    complie-time constant: job"
    I guess I'm missing something, or doing something way
    wrong... I just don't know enough of Flex at this point to know
    what it is.
    Thanks!

    Using php or asp is not an option, as we are a Cold Fusion
    House.
    I was looking at an article on Ben Forta's blog (
    http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=e&entry=1786)
    and following his example I did this... only it doesn't work:
    I'm very very new to Flash and we are using ColdFusion but
    are not using Flex Data Services. I've been trying to figure out
    how to populate a combobox from a database and I'm just not having
    any luck.
    My project is called "PreTraffic". I have my main file as
    "JobSearch.mxml" and a folder under the root named "cfc" with a
    file called "job.cfc".
    job.cfc contains the following code:
    <cfcomponent>
    <!--- Get jobs --->
    <cffunction name="GetJob" access="remote"
    returntype="query" output="false">
    <cfset var job="">
    <cfset var results="">
    <cfquery datasource="discsdev" name="job">
    SELECT job_id, job_title
    FROM job
    WHERE status = 'O'
    ORDER BY job_title
    </cfquery>
    <cfquery dbtype="query" name="results">
    SELECT job_title AS label, job_id AS data
    FROM job
    ORDER BY label
    </cfquery>
    <cfreturn results>
    </cffunction>
    </cfcomponent>
    And JobSearch.mxml has the following code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application
    xmlns:mx="
    http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
    xmlns="*"
    layout="absolute"
    backgroundGradientColors="[#ffffff, #d0d0d0]"
    creationComplete="InitApp()">
    <mx:Style source="style.css" />
    <mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    public function InitApp():void {
    jobSvc.GetJob();
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <!-- ColdFusion CFC (via AMF) -->
    <mx:RemoteObject id="jobSvc" destination="PreTraffic"
    showBusyCursor="true" />
    <mx:VBox label="Job History" width="100%" height="100%"
    x="10" y="92">
    <mx:Label text="Search jobs by"/>
    <mx:Form label="Task" width="100%">
    <mx:FormItem label="Job Name:">
    <mx:ComboBox id="jobNameCB"
    dataProvider="{jobSvc.GetJob.results}"></mx:ComboBox>
    </mx:FormItem>
    </mx:Form>
    <mx:HBox>
    <mx:Button label="Search"/>
    <mx:Button label="Clear"/>
    </mx:HBox>
    </mx:VBox>
    </mx:Application>
    My Compiler thingy points to:
    -services
    "/Volumes/flexwwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/job-services-config.xml" -locale
    en_US
    and job-services-config.xml contains the following code:
    <destination id="PreTraffic">
    <channels>
    <channel ref="my-cfamf"/>
    </channels>
    <properties>
    <source>flex.pretraffic.cfc.job</source>
    <lowercase-keys>true</lowercase-keys>
    </properties>
    </destination>
    Well, when I run the app... the combobox is not populated...
    Can anyone help with what I've done wrong?
    Thanks!

  • App Store is not working in Data plan in iPhone 4s

    In my New iPhone 4s App Store is not working in Data plan.Even though i have restarted still the same problem persisits.
    And also If I turn off some apps(Settings-->Use Cellulalar data for ) by using Cellular data for those are not working
    Could someone help me.

    I didn't have any problems with the Malaysia App Store.
    Try this...  install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    Then restart your Mac.
    Launch the App Store.
    Check the round flag icon bottom left corner of the iTunes window to make sure the correct country is selected. If not, click the flag then select Malaysia.
    It's ok to install the combo even though you are already running v10.6.8.

    he menu button of the ipod touch (4th generation) is not working and the service center of ipod is asking us to pay for the fixation of the said item even though it's still on warranty. this is the case number 215866894. And the service center said that they don't cover that center part of the ipod so they're asking us money before they can fix it. We bought the ipod last december 8, 2010 and we brought it to the service center last april, 2011 here in the philippines. And until now they're not fixing it because they're asking us to pay half the price of the item which is 8,040 pesos..

    As advised, you need to call Apple about this.

    No one here works for Apple (no one who will reply, anyway) so there's nothing anyone here can do to help you with this issue.

  • Changes made in RFC is not reflected in data services

    Hi,
    I am using a data service based on SAP R/3 RFC in my view
    In my RFC i have some import parameters
    and some export parameters
    and when place a data service which is based on this RFC on the view  for the first time , I am getting the import parameters and export parameters correctly
    but the issue comes
    when ever some one make changes in RFC and activating it again.
    those changes are not reflected in data service (ex: a new import parameter is added or a parameter name is changed  in the RFC, this is not reflected in data service)
    i tried with deleting the existing data service and creating a new data service based on modified RFC
    but even iam getting the data services details as pervious one ( as old data servie which  i used at firt time)
    why this is happening
    how to solve this issue
    regards
    Srinivas

    Hi,
    Yes you need to restert the J2EE engine. Because when you  imort it first time then it holdes it in cache  memory. It will not be updated untill you restert the server. You restert the server then try it , you will get the right result for updated RFC.
    Thanks

  • Excel Functions Do Not Work When Data Source is BW

    Hello,
    My platform is, BOBJ BI 4.0. Data source is SAP BW. BW is connected to XCelsius with BEx. My problem is, excel functions do not work when data source is BW. For example, Excel cell A1=quantity1  B1= quantity2   C1= excel function "=A1+B1" When data source is Excel, for example A1=5, B1=9 C1 automatically equals to 14. (There is no problem when data source is Excel) But, in BW, for example when BW set values to A1=5, B1=9, the system does not calculate C1. C1 always equals to initial value, the system does not care any excel calculation when data source is BW.  Any guess for my problem? Thank you for your effort.

    Hi,
    As you are using very simple formula,it will work no matter which source you are consuming.As mentioned,try to place a simple component(Eg:spreadsheet),just to check whether you are getting the right calculated value or not.
    As you are using BW as source,the Preview option will not show the runtime data,so you need to publish in Portal to check whether the calculation happened or not.
    As far as I know only few fromulas are supported in Xcelsius,but these kind of simple formulas are very much supported.
    Rgds,

  • My iphone can not work on another carrier's network. What can I do?

    A year ago, I buy an iphone and use in usual.
    Buy after I upgrade to IOS5,it doesn't work any longer.
    Someone say iPhones designed to work on AT&T's network will not work on another carrier's network.
    Amazing! Before I upgrade to IOS5,it works on CMCC,and it can work any other carrier's network.
    What can I do?

    好吧,是广州人的话我用中文好了...
    话说你的手机在升级之前是哪个版本的系统?越狱了么?一年前由 AT&T 发售的 iPhone 4 确实都是有锁的,除非越狱使用 Ultrasn0w 来解除网络锁,或者使用卡贴,而升级之后是会抹去越狱的东西的...

  • Working with data services on remote server (not just deploying)

    Hi!,
    Is this possible? I'm used to work directly agains remote servers, but it seems flash builder 4 data services doesn't like it in development phase.
    I know I can deploy my services to a remote server for production, but want to do the same in development phase, work against remote data service. Could anyone suguest any tip?
    Thanks in advance,
    HexDump.

    Hello HexDump;
    If I understand your question correctly - you are trying to connect to a remote server to use its data during development.  What type of data are you working with and how do you connect to it?
    For example if you are using php/mySQL on your remote server and you are using data services and a callresponder, you can put in the endpoint in your service (see below example). *This might change in newer revisions.
    <fx:Declarations>
    <users:Users id="users" destination="users" endpoint="http://www.yourdomain.com/gateway.php"
    fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString)" showBusyCursor="true" source="users"/>
    <s:CallResponder id="loginUserResult"/>
    </fx:Declarations>
