That's actually a good question but I'm not sure myself...why would you want to do that anyway? If you want to switch networks, you can by going to the network options.

does anyone know if you connect your g1 to a wifi without a internet signal, does it automatically switch to the data plan to pull internet?

I've tried this and I don't think so.

Certainly not. It wouldn't be appropriate to do so.
We just got a t-mobile no-contract tablet. Randomly while trying to browse via wifi, the t-mobile prepaid screen pops up and we can no longer use the browser.
Anyone else experiencing this and have ideas how to stop it from happening? Is there a way to permanently disable the t-mobile network connection? (we are always connecting via a wifi tether and are not using the tmobile service).
Thanks
Here's a thought...call tmobile...I know what an original idea

Is your tab in airplane mode while you use wifi?

Probably a silly question, but when you say "wifi tether" it sounds like you are tethering to another phone, so are you doing this or are you connecting to a "fixed" WiFi access point? (e.g. your home DSL/cable connection).

Either... Sometimes we are tethering to an access point on our phone, other times it is the wifi at the airport.
No we are not in airplane mode.
Hold the power button in for a few seconds, then choose airplane mode. Then in settings, enable wifi.
From the wireless settings you can uncheck packet data.

Activating portable wifi hotspot will turn off your wifi..........Have you tried with a sim in as the hotspot utilizes your data conection as a wifi hotspot. So I am pretty sure you need the sim inserted??
Oh I thought WiFi tethering uses your WiFi not data connection I have a 2 gig data connection and I don't want to waste it. I an going to try with sim card.
Edit: sim card inside but turns off WiFi and turns on 4G LTE

Hi Bigbot -
I am using your 15-1 beta deodex and found something weird. Actually it happened on previous rom too, but did not verify it on other rom, only found out this time time around. I'm on the latest BOG5 firmware and the only way to fix this is to reboot the phone.
When I have WIFI ON, internet is fine.
When I turn OFF WIFI and use data, internet is fine too.
Turn ON Mobile Hotspot from data, internet is fine too.
BUT...., If I were on WIFI AND internet is fine, I turn ON Mobile Hotspot. I got a warning saying that "turning on Mobile Hotspot will turn off WIFI". I press OK and check internet, it is fine. And this is where it gets weird, if I turn OFF Mobile Hotspot and turn ON WIFI, my WIFI connects but NO INTERNET. Check my router and router said phone is CONNECTED, but phone has no internet. Ping the phone from the other computer connected to the same router return fine. Phone cannot ping anything on the same router or to the internet. The ONLY WAY to resolve the WIFI internet now is to reboot the phone.
BUT.... if I were going from WIFI to Mobile Hotspot by turning OFF WIFI FIRST, WAIT a few second and then TURN ON Mobile Hotspot. When I go back to WIFI, it is FINE. I CAN connect to internet. It is only when I allow the system to turn OFF WIFI by itself to activate Mobile Hotspot will I loose my WIFI internet when I reconnect back to WIFI.
Do you know what is going on? It seemed like if the system turn OFF WIFI by itself to connect to Mobile Hotspot, it is also doing something more that when you turn ON WIFI it won't connect to the internet.
Hopefully you understand what I'm going through. It's been a few weeks like this that I finally find out the culprit.

Like make the phone as a WiFi repeater, back with Pocophone I could use the phone's WiFi share it via hotspot, now if I'm on 9t if I turn on hotstpot it disables WiFi and start using LTE, is there any way to turn on hotspot but still using WiFi and share that WiFi using hotspot
I don't know if I'm explaining myself ???
