I am travelling often between NL, B, F and D. Roaming is quite an annoying problem.
This is what I have to do each time I leave the Netherlands:
1. switch from Dual to GSM in menuapplet. This should disable all 3G connections, but apparently it doesn't completely
2. settings - connectivity -internet connections: automatic connection - WLAN. This as well should prevent 3G connections, but email keeps downloading, and Sygic keeps asking for internetconnection 2 screens 2 times an hour.
3. email: settings - disable automatic download
4. settings - connectivity - Mail for exchange - settings -disable calendar and contacts synchronisation
5. connectivity - location - disable network positioning (for sygic)
I would like an applet to switch all these settings on and off through 1 button.
Of course there is a way to switch of all internet activity except wifi: just don't enter the phone's pin at startup. No telephone, but Maemo OS keeps working. And Sygic keeps asking for internet connection, two screens twice an hour.
