data connection being used even on wifi

hi guys if anyone can help will be greatful.
when i connect to the wifi and browse interenet, my x2 still uses data connection to browse and my balance gets deducted.
is there anyone i can switch of data connection or does it automatically switch off when the Wifi gets On.
And i think PLAY NOW doesnt use WIFI it only uses DATA connection, because it never works on WIFi and keeps giving a error.

Hi, I never quite understood how could Windows Mobile lack some "Preferred accounts" or "Priority" settings like the one my beloved SE P1i has.
Indeed even I'm connected on Wifi the HSDPA data connection goes on at its own will.
However I know a couple of workarounds:
For users with an unlimited or large data plan who want only to supress data connection in roaming for fear of huge bills, there is NoDataInRoaming, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503131
If you simply want to shut off your data connection and make it stay that way until you tell it otherwise, try Red Frogfhish Data Controller http://www.redfrogfish.com/139/data-controller-update-version/

the simple trick is that, u have to just turn off your data account settings while using wifi...
it happened to me as well, when i had no knowledge about changing settings..
when u r about to connect wifi, 1st use these simple steps
1: go to start
2: go to settings
3: go to connections
4: further go to connections
5: select advance
6: change ur sim settings network to any other network, like my ISP e.t.c
by this trick u will never be discharged from ur balance

WIFI Issues

I've had my Nexus for about a week now and noticed two strange issues with the WIFI connection.
1. I can connect to WIFI successfully at home but as soon as I go out and it switches to the 2G network and then later go back inside the WIFI doesn't auto connect it will stay on 2G, I have to disable and enable WIFI to connect to my home WIFI, is there a way round this or is it a bug?
2. Whenever I'm out an about and the phone detects a WIFI network even if its not configured to connect to the WIFI network the phone seems to disable 2G Data connection and continually notifies me of a WIFI network being in range and wanting to configure it, is there anyway of disabling this behavior and allowing the 2G Data connection to be active when no configured WIFI network are in range?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Really can't help you much on the settings as I don't quite have my N4 but you should always turn wifi off when you're not using it. You will get much better battery and you wont have problem with #2. Sorry I couldn't really help much.

I have the same issue number 1. I find the battery is getting used quickly and the wifi will not connect. if i disable then enable, it quickly connects to the known wifi signal. I can see a different battery decay slope if I let this problem persist for a few hours, it then reverts to its usual slope once wifi is restarted. This problem usually only occurs once a day on average. I hope someone knows how to solve this issue.

Nexus 4 wifi disconnects

hi my nexus 4 is having problems with the wifi
whenever i connect my phone to wifi it establishes connection and after few minutes the connection is shown as active but no internet access so i have to reeboot or switch wifi off and on.
i tried everything but still not able to get it working.
i am on stock android 4.4.2
so please help anyone ????

Did you try different Wifi? Is the problem the same at home, at work, at McDo ...? Or just at home? Maybe it's a dynamic IP assignment conflict or something.

[Q] Why does the WiFi disconnect after inactivity ?

Hi
My Nexus Player's wifi disconnects after I don't use the player - say for an hour. The problem is that when I'm using Kodi for example, the WiFi doesn't automatically connect back on: I have to go to WiFi, choose the network and actually connect.
I've looked in settings and other places, but can't seem to find a setting that disables the WiFi from disconnecting during extended inactivity ...
Any one with similar issues ? How did you solve them ?
Thanks !
