using Goodlink on the HTC TyTN

I have had Goodlink installed on my TyTn with a couple of unwanted side affects. Does anyone know how to overcome these issues?

1) I have password protected the device with a simple numeric pin. Before Goodlink, when I turned it on, a large numeric keypad popped up so I could enter the pin with a finger. Now I get a full keyboard which is too small to use with one of my fat fingers. Anyone know how to get the large key pad back a the start-up pin entry default?

2) I can't turn off GPRS from the device and keep GSM connected. Goodlink automatically turns it back on. This affects battery life and more importantly is expensive as I am currently roaming and paying GBP10 a Mbyte for data!

Thanks.

Toby

For #1, I think you can go Start-Settings-Phone and uncheck the pin requirement under Security. The big fingered device pin will still come on when the phone is powered on but not the smaller keypad/SIM card pin to use the phone.

Another solution is to stop biting your nails. 😉

As for #2, I don't think it's related to Goodlink, because I don't have Goodlink and it does the same thing. Even if I set ActiveSync to full manual.
