I recently got the HD, but since I live in Canada I figured it wasn't worth it to get a data plan (Can only use EDGE and prices are outrageous). As such, I'm wondering if there are any apps or methods to block data.
I would still want to be able to use wifi for internet and such, but stop EDGE from working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Goto the Comm Manager and turn Data Connection off? Don't know what that does to wifi which has a seperate on/off? That failing, could you not disable data from your operator?
what works for me is to set networks for automatic internet access to "company network":
Start - settings - connections tab - connections icon - extended tab - select networks - automatic internet access => set to company network
I have a german device so had to guess english names ... be warned.
if you make the change and try to update weather data you should get an error.
Set it back to your phone provider should make it connect (and charge you) again.
I called my carrier and asked for data transfer to be blocked.
Start - Settings - Connections
Tap the Connections icon
There you might see an entry for your mobile provider - in my case I see
"Vodafone Live"
- Add a new modem
- Edit my proxy server
- Manage existing connections
Tap 'Manage existing connections'
You will see a list of modems (in my case I see 'Vodafone Live')
Tab and hold the modem
Choose delete
Anyone tried MoDaCo's NoData utility?

dwnload tweaks 3.3. There is an option to disable one or al of your data connections.
You need to install compact framework 3.5 first (google it if unsure).
Hi Everyone,
can anybody code me a Mobile Internet on/off Widget for my LauncherPro ?
Can't find anyrhing in the market...
Greetings
APN droid
switch pro
that's just too, there are loads in the market.
Unfortunately most of them won't work for a reason ( I think it's a common problem of 2.2) - it's the typical behavior, tried extended controls and apn droid and neither of them are working correctly. Due to the renaming of the apn it looses for 2-3 sek the mobile connection and then it comes back again on sense and non-sense roms. The only data switch which is working for me is the one from the cm kernel/rom.
Agreed, most of the widgets out in the market don't work well. Also, if the mobile internet is on and these widgets just change the APN, won't the battery be consumed in 'looking' for the right internet connection?
The closest I got to a solution for this is not a widget, but a 2-step process. From LauncherPro, go to Add -> Shortcuts -> Activities -> Settings -> Wireless & Networks
This would add the Wireless and Networks widget to your homescreen. Every time you need to toggle your connection, press the widget which will take you to the Wireless & Network settings page, and from there, you can tick/untick mobile internet connection.
I am going to ask fede of launcher pro if he can consider adding them as a launcher pro + widget.
Hi
Is there any alternative to the HTC Mobile Network Widget, that either allows direct enable / disable or takes you to settings/networks.
I know some of the widgets, enable or disable the APN, but I prefer the HTC method of actually disabling the network connection, not just fiddling with the APN.
Thanks
Pls any program in the market to easily help me manage my internet connections. Some programs are eating up my data plan.
Wht dont you add the mobile network widget to your home screens? It's in the Add widgets > Settings > Mobile Network
use the default htc data dashboard wiget or the power widget
You can also search the market or appbrain.com for power control widget
Try to disable the always on internet by pressing power button and selecting the last option. This will increase the battery
Is there any widget which automatically changes from 2G to 3G, or 3G to 2G? The widget that doesn't redirect us to the settings? Is this possible without rooting phone?
Did you search for '2g 3g toggle widget' on the Play Store and try several apps?
Its only possible with root...
