Disable GSM!!!!

My old device was htc wizard. There was an option to disable gsm (phone) only. Is there any way to do this in g1? I just want to avoid calls and in the same time to use wifi. Airplane mode doesn't work for me, because it disables wifi too

Not quite the way you are accustomed to it, but there is a 'way' around it... you basically leave the phone on but you can turn on call forwarding... settings > call settings > call forwarding > always.
It doesn't turn the phone off but it won't ring either.

i was wondering the same thing, there might come out with a fix for this in the next update.

demontefixo, i was using the same solution, but I hoped for real solution to disable GSM. Anyway I will just wait
PS: This device is amazing I'm so happy with it. I wasn't using windows on my computer and laptop, and now i am completely MS free

Install anycut and Create a Software to Hidden Application named Phone Info, their you can see the Phone or Radio disable type of option. I have Tried it
It can actuall disable Radio and keep the Wifi on, But i could not renable radio and must have to reboot the phone.

Through the same Phone Info shortcut you can enable it to use WCDMA only or just prefer WCDMA or use GSM only. I think that is what mony87 was looking for.

Or you can go to:
Settings
Mobile networks
Operator selection
If you only see T-Mobile then Search Networks.
Select a non subscribed Network like ATT
It will tell you you your SIM card does not allow a connection...
But if you don't re-select TMobile the Phone Connection will turn off.
To get your Phone Connection back, just select TMobile

I thought I had the same issue but you actually can re-enable the radio after you turn it off...it just takes a while...

Bring up the dialer, type in: *#*#INFO#*#*. Shouldn't need to hit enter. Scroll all the way down, and hit "Turn off radio".

Switch Widget for Mobile Data Network.

I've been trying to get a juicy theme going on but I'm having real trouble finding a switch to allow direct access to allow me to switch mobile data on and off.
SwitchPro doesn't allow me to do it, both "Data Connection" and "2g 3g" only switch it off for a few seconds and then it pops back up. If I then go into settings, Wireless, Mobile network shows as being ticked, yet says "Connection failed" - It is of course connected and functional.
Extended Controls 2g/3g and Data Network do exactly the same.
There is, of course, the native Sense UI widget...so how hard can it be if you don't want to use Sense?
Is there a widget out there that will allow me to directly switch Mobile Network (data) on and off from the homescreen?
Currently on latest Mocado R8 custom bake.

i had that problem before as well..what i did is remove the defualt apn and add them back manually..and the problem solve..u can try on this method..

Try APNDroid:

Could you give me a quick step-by-step?
Will try apnDroid too, thanks guys.
EDIT - apndroid simply disables it for a few seconds, it then reconnects.

widget didnt do anything.
I need one because you have to press and hold the power button and it seems a bit rough on it and we all know that these little buttons always go bad so a widget would be great for relieving the burdon on the power button.
any other suggestions, for a rooted evo?

No mobile data toggle tmo

In s7 edge t mobile version there is no data toggle in notification panel.
We have to go all the way back to settings to turn it on.
Since the root is achieved is there any way to bring back the toggle???
Thanks

Should be able to decompile the system ui and activate it.

Install Good Lock from the galaxy store. No root required.

Tmo bastards removed it.. I've asked @jds3118 to put this feature in his Echoe rom(btw check it out it's great). I'm an optimist that we will have this feature soon enough!

Just curious
What is the reason you would like a data toggle? Do you roam around in the mountains? I just turn the phone off when I'm in the remote places of the world. But mostly, I just use wifi at home which shuts down data, and when I leave house turn off wifi, which enables data and allows me to use my android radio and maps and stream. So what is the reason for a switch, I have a widget set that includes that switch, I'll check for you to find which one it is but I think it is called Beautiful widgets, or it may be in Fancy widgets. I use to use that switch all the time back many years ago but find no reason to use it anymore.

Is there any way for non rooted phone.????
I do use good lock but i dnt like stock android look i prefer touchwiz ui..
I always switch btwn data and wifi whole day...so i need that toggle in notification panel

Check out what I did here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjwbs8qwd2o this is the closest I have got with out root. it works pretty well.

ok guys i have a trick not original but it does give faster access to data toggler not on the notification bar but on home screen i came up with this after reading this tread=
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/help/built-caller-id-hidden-t3357996[/url] for the incoming caller ID hack. well with that app i did a data search look for phone com.android phone then you click on it to branch it then tap on mobile data then create short cut and bingo no more clicks after clicks then i found a image of a setting with the data toggler image took a picture of it edit it to smaller size and swap it with the phone image like i said not perfect but it will do for me. hope this help others her is image of it maybe somebody can make a nicer data icon image been this thread was all ready started i didn't want to start a new one

Or use good lock and enable quick settings tab.

GOOD LOCK is not just a lock screen like I thought.
IT GIVE YOU MOBILE DATA QUICK TOGGLE
the default them looks CRAPPY AS all can be, see my screen shots after I changed it.
I'm a happy camper

Mobile data toggle is absent in nougat too for tmo...i wrote suggestion to add the toggle.. and also good lock is not present in nougat...

Isn't there any other method like to edit some Xml files in order to see the toggle? This is a carrier 'feature' and I think is not that hard to enable it, if you know where to look...
Anybody?

I have Nougat on my Moto Z. The notification shade has 2 positions, 1) partly down, and 2) all the way down. I placed the Cellular Data icon in the first row. When I pull the notification shade down once (i.e. part way down) and double click on the Cellular Data icon, it toggles Cellular Data on and off.

You will need root otherwise cant do this. You need to edit the others.xml file in System/CSC on your device. When you open the others.xml you will see the csc code. Edit the line that says ConfigDefQuickSettingItem and add MobileData on the end. After editing make sure to set permissions if they changed to 644. I used root explorer to do all this. After editing the CSC go into settings, general then reset settings on your device. When it reboots go to edit the quick setting icons and the Mobile Data Icon will be there.

Thanks Naruto. But do you know, is it possible to root Android Nougat?

What is the reason for needing a mobile data toggle? At idle, phones do not consume alot of data. An unlimited plan can be had on this device for $65 with Cricket. Even without unlimited, I do not understand the need for the toggle? In what instance would you like the mobile data turned off?

It will never happen unless they do like they did for the S5. Flash back to MM, install flashfire, then flash a N rom. I doubt there will ever be a N root. Plus its new, even if there was, it would be months from now until it would happen.

I want to turn off data when I do not need it. I do the same with the WiFi. It is not related to my data plan but to the battery life I have which is very poor.
Disabled most of the bloatware and still get 2-3 h of SOT maximum.

Ouch, sorry to hear that. Do you use snapchat and facebook? I hear those destroy your battery. Can you post a screenshot of your battery usage by app? Im sure the people here will know exactly what it is. I can leave my data on and only lose 4 percent overnight in 7.5 hours just idle with data on.

Mobile data turned off notification removal

If you toggle data on and then off, a notification appears saying
"You will no longer be able to use applications such as Internet, Email, or other apps that require a network connection, unless you connect to wifi etc."
The message however remains there even with Wifi on.
There is no option to clear the notification and then an Icon appears in the top left hand corner reminding you of the fact.
That top left corner of the screen is usually used for many other temporary notifications which can now no longer be displayed.
If the phone is started with data off then everything works as it did with Android 6 until data is toggled again.
Anyone know how to get rid of this notification?

I actually have found this to be a nice change, as toggling on data after turning it off, is much easier now. That being said, a normal toggle like wifi or bluetooth has, would be much preferred. Dont know how to get rid of the notification, other than restarting the phone with data off (like you said).

I miss this data on/off toggle feature from the quick menu that I had on my LG G3 and other earlier Android phones.
I now use the usage manager widget on my home page or edge menu to toggle data on and off.
I have reached out to my contacts at AT&T to try and find out why they did this and if they intend to make this notification selectable like almost every other one is.

Hasn't ATT been doing this for a long time? I had to add the data toggle via root and script edit on my old ATT note 3 I remember.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers Legacy app

It's not the absence of the quick toggle I am talking about here it's the fact that a notification comes on when you turn data off but there's no way to remove the notification once it appears or a setting to stop it from appearing at all.

I have the same issue. It only started after I downloaded and installed the Android 7.0 update late last week.

Did anybody find a solution to this yet? This can be quite frustrating as I just switched from an international s7 edge and that even had a mobile data notification toggle. Thanks in advance!

After you toggle data off, reboot the phone. It goes away for me after a reboot.

Kill the phone app
It's a bit cumbersome but better than rebooting / restarting.
Slide the 'data off' notification right to expose the gear icon
Click gear
Click green 'phone'
Now 'force stop' the phone app
I know it sounds scary but this works (until the next time you enable & disable data).

Yeah I've got the same complaint with my S7, can't slide off or clear the notification after turning data off unless you restart. Let us slide the option off. I want a button I can just click to turn on/off data. "OH WAIT, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME AND CONVENIENT, WE CAN'T DO THAT!" -Samsung

I hate this notification
Is doing this too harmful for the phone app? I just got a Galaxy S7 that had AT&T as a carrier, but I'm not on the AT&T network. I just tried a hack from XDA that allowed me to get the mobile data toggle but the notification started popping up when i disabled data. It's very annoying but I haven't found any other ways of disabling it. I just want to know if force stopping the phone would be bad for me in the long run. I'm wondering why i upgraded if it was going to be so much trouble.

Network mode toggle (LTE to 4G/WCDMA)?

Hi everyone,
Obviously, I know where to find the setting that allows you to switch between LTE/GSM/WCDMA to, say, just WCDMA. But is there a tool that would allow me to switch that mode from a widget or quick setting tile? My commute features varying degrees of network congestion on LTE, so I like to switch back and forth. I'd just like for that process to be something I could do more quickly.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I don't think so as far as I know. Best option I've found is keep the code in a text file and copy paste into the dialer and change from there.
