Android Market occasionally drops data connection when MarketAccess is enabled (doesn't matter if it's set manually or automatically at boot time). HTC Sense switcher widget actually says it's still connected, but no 3G/H icon in notification area and Internet doesn't work. The only way to get it back is by disabling and enabling data with the widget or through settings. Everything is working fine when MarketAccess is disabled.
Does anyone experience this issue?
There's an issue posted on Google Code for MarketAccess detailing this, but the solution to delete emulated access points doesn't work.

Hi.
I recently bought Xperia X10.
Yesterday i downloaded a network monitor from market and in the morning i had 12Mb traffic
Today i disabled google sync, facebook and twitter updates, removed the weather widget from screen and i still see constant traffic.
Coming from Nokia 5800 XM, i had always a warning every time an app tried to connect to internet.
Android has something like this?
Or a way to see which app is connecting to internet?
X10 is not rooted yet so, i can't use any (iptables based... if something like this exists) firewall ...
Thanks
Install APNdroid from the Market. That should solve the problem.

It won't.
The idea is to have access to the internet but i want to know which apps are accessing the internet and allow/deny them.
I don't want to block all the traffic
I use apndroid too. Because there is not actually a app with can deny the dataconnection for apps.
I know you problem. But i have set the config, when i activate the connection my apps (mail) will automticaly update.
In HTC Sense there's a widget to turn data trafic on/off

Where is this widget that you are talking about to turn on and off only data?? cant find it on my HTC Desire.
turning off all data DOESN'T help because will stop all the updates and sync.

which stats-counter are you using?
It's the same on my SGS2.
I'm using Call Meter 3G (beta) and after every reboot I have 12MB more on my stats.
Now I don't know if this traffic was really a download-traffic or CM3G just count 12MB + on every reboot because of a bug???
Did you test another stats-counter?
I've also tried to disable as much as possible with autostarts to fix this but I couldn't.
But the stange thing is if I reboot in the flight-mode (so you dont't have to enter a pin) it's the same --> so I guss it's a bug?
Any solution or ideas??

Edit:
I tested Call Meter 3G (beta) and DroidStats together and it seems like CM3G is buggy because DS don't add 12MB + after a reboot.
So let's hope the developer will fix it...
Another thing you could do is to compare that app's reported stats to the stats you get from your carrier (One place you can find the carriers stats is in the carrier web site).
Has anyone else had the web brwser crash when the location is turned on(wireless networks) with Wifi only? Its odd.. i have tried a restart and i am sure it did not do this yesterday... any ideas? This seems to be only happening with google.... if i use another homepage i can open the defualt ATT yahoo one np(i noticed a weather wgdet embeded on the page so i assume it too is using my wirless location).. it must have to do with something in how the google page asks for my location accross the Wifi. Perhaps its google and they have changed somthing? Can anyone else use wifi network location with wifi on and go to google(it works fine on the 3g wireless network). Though i cannot for the life of me figure out why the google page will crash when trying to get my location(if i go to settings on the google page and disable get my location everything is fine)... does anyone know of any other sites i could use to test to see if its the google page or the wireless location call?
Thanks for your time and expertise.
ok i just tested the yahoo.com location and it got my location correct and did not crash... I have tried 4 captivates so i am very scared of hardware issues... this scream software to me.. i just have no idea how to fix it.
Has anyone else witnessed this? Have you tried refreshing your google search page 5-6 times and noticed the browser just close to home screen?
EDIT: SOLVED
I accidentally found the option I was looking for while fiddeling around in BatteryXL. At the checkbox-option for autosync... if you click on the text left of the checkbox insted, you are able to select WIFI and/or DATA. Well hidden =). The initial results is promising, but will run it for some days to make sure it works properly. As for now I see this as solved.
I have an issue that I've stuggeled with for days now and it's starting to drive me crazy.
What I'm trying to do is to make my phone, in intervals, enable autosync + wifi, sync/update then turn back off again without mobile data ever beeing activated. I want mobile data to be activated manually only.
So far I've been able to do everything except preventing mobile data to activate. If wifi is available it overrides and turns off mdata, but im not fully satisfied with this. I use BatteryXL Pro for the scheduled autosyncs.
Here's my setup:
HTC Desire S
Rooted - cm7
BatteryXL Pro (Options: Smart Wifi + Smart data enabled, these basicly just manage how wifi and mdata is turned off again. Smart AutoSync: frequency 15 min, duration 1 min)
Background data and Autosync is disabled in the phones settings.
I've been messing around with the APN settings aswell.
I had this working on my stock OS before i rootet. Any suggestions on how to solve this?
Thanks, warjar
i am having an issue that i cannot figure out and i am hoping someone can help. i have a galaxy s6 through Bell and it is completely stock and i have not modified it in any way. i am having an issue where some apps, but not others, will not download data unless i am on wifi. i do have some apps that have background data restricted but i am having issues when the apps are in the foreground and are actively being used. i have checked to make sure that there are no data limits or restrictions blocking data, i have full lte signal and i have tried toggling between lte and 3g with the same results.
i have used the phone for 5 weeks at least and for the first 3 weeks all was good until this issue crept up and i had to do a hard reset. i started from scratch and reset the phone and all was good for another 2 weeks and now it is an issue again. as an example, i open the play store app and it loads up the icons and i can use lte and load all info and pics,etc, but when i try to download a new app or update an existing one it will indicate that it is trying to download but nothing happens. i can switch to the browser and it will open pages but when i switch back to the play store it says that background data is disabled when it is actually not.
today i have also had issues with google music where it will allow me to play radio stations over lte just fine sometimes and other times the icons will be greyed out and it will not allow the radio stream to open unless i switch to wifi. the settings are set up to allow me to stream over data, etc so it should be working.
i have had many android devices in the past and am usually able to figure this stuff out but i am stumped on this one. i tried searching and did not find anything. any help would be appreciated.

Did you check to see if power saver is set to on? Turn it off
If it's not that, check under settings > data usage and make sure "set mobile data limit" is OFF
Thanks but neither of those is the issue. Some apps will work while others will not. Gmail will get push email but I cannot download apps or stream music in play music. Frustrating
Disabling background data will simply stop the app using mobile data to do things in the background. I'd imagine the app recognises streaming as "background data".
I would turn off disable background data on the effected apps as the setting does not improve battery and has very little effect on data used.
I will try that and see. What confuses me is that the phone has been great for a few weeks and suddenly this issue comes back and I have not changed any settings from one day to the next
Hello
I am using latest .93 firmware and i have noticed strange thing: something are turning on data transfer and then disable it.
My data trasfer is turned off, after disabling i hide the notification "data trasmission in cellular is turned off" but after some time when phone is inactive the notification appears and seems that i got charged by using data.
The monitors doesn't show any info which app using data transfer.
Are You experienced this ?
Is there any way to check logs which application enabling data transfer / how to block it ?
Seems even if i block cellular data for any app the connection to network is made and few kilobytes pass through.
Do You have any ideas ?

I don't have that problem at all I'm on 33.2.A.2.93 myself, is the background data turned off for each and every app go to settings data usage and click on each and every app in the list for data+WiFi and set the slider at the bottom to the on position. The notification you get to say that data is disabled that looks like a small globe will come and go on its own anyway usually when you wake up the xa it's how it is it doesn't mean it has actually used any data it's to remind you it's off
Have you also turned the Bluetooth+WiFi always scanning for connections Inc when they are actually turned off. Go to settings location and tap the three dots top right turn both sliders to the off position.
This should stop any background data being used and won't effect the way any of the apps work

+1 sometimes !
The bluetooth, wifi, cellular(agps) location helpers are OFF.
Trying for now not to disable all cellular data(the switch to block all traffic) because i am trying to indentify app that cause problem.
I get used to manually turn on and off cellular data and would like to keep that way with this phone.
'thing' that turn on data make me nuts.
"small globe notification" appeared once in last half day - t-mobile app says usage of 200kb but Data Usage Monitor does show nothing
I think that issue depend on signal strength.. Always when back from basement which is located underground i had that notification about mobile data.. Also in forest, when signal is gone or rly poor.
But had no idea which app is responsible for that. Also trying few times turn off notifications in random sys apps and nothing so far..
The beggining of the end...
The telegram app shows notifications too, strangw notifications, why? The app is not listed on the detailed ps list, is not running anything related to telegram, ate least the unrecognized service that poped up the notification.
This is new method they are using.
Is not online, but the notifications is poping up.
Called as Multidex odex(or dex from the app) and cached secondary-dexes provided by them when we last tine was online.
We ended and closed the app, but, the secondary dexes are in the Memory opened
Someday i was searching why my apps are all closed , but the ram is sluggy and filled?
This is why.
Preventing yourself agains these new kind of apks before installing.
This may contain virus.
This is destroying the cpu and the ram.
These secondary dexes processes are hidden, and unkillable (unless i root and forbid services)
Nothing is turning on the data.
The cached dexes are running in hidden background, showing the notifications that was not readed when was the app online.
This is a serious damage menace.
I disagree with this, after i discovered this, now, i am denying packages with Multidex inside.

I forgot to mention:
Imagine:
I am running a newsapp, with fully adblock in action.
They will search a "V".
They creates a temporary secondary-dex, when my installation id is on line reading their news, the cached dex is , for exampling: deleting my pictures, uploading something mine to their servers, deleting musics, corrupting files, etc.
due to the secondary dex is updated periodically... on cache, free for do what they want do on my device...
They found "V" Vengeance
Because i am Ad blocker
Only because this.
This is why the RootCloak was created.
To hide root and commands that some apps runs in hidden background
I tried search how to forbid this Multidexes apps.
But untill now, the solution is
Not install.
Check the package before installing and read the Manifest.xml about the multidex version.
If no multidex tag found, is safe apk.
Remember the Quadrooter.
They may creates a secondary-dex for destroy the gpu easyly.

Yes, you are right! I have checked that.
That notification reappears when i lost signal and get it back. Appears also when i turn on airplane mode and then switch it off.
So nothing actually switch on cellular data BUT ...
i found what cause the problem
it's localization
I have it enabled BUT helpers are switched OFF (wifi+cellular) and bluetooth but it still using AGPS.
When i use app that use localization - for example speedtest app (using wifi) then localization icon appears and a moment later two arrows (up/down) appear on gsm signal.
so the question is :
How can i disable AGPS ?? (settings -> localization -> three dots -> scanning -> both options are OFF)
Please someone check if You have same problem (turned agps off and using app with localization and celular data disabled you get two arrows on gsm signal)
EDIT: The mode of GPS is: only device. Note that evey switch off and on it defaults to best accuracy.
When i make sure it's only GPS (agps disabled) and helpers are off and run speedtest with localization it STILL using agps
BUG ?
The OS itself downloads data too, even on rooted.
100 per month going where ?

Yes but android OS doesn't use data traffic when data traffic is disabled.
AGPS does
Solved
Problem was resolved by SONY's support:
Selecting device only will not disable assisted start on the GPS. It only disables location by WiFi, mobile network and bluetooth.
What you can try is to go to Settings -> More -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names. Here check the APN type on all your APNs. If you have "supl" on the APN-type, try to remove this. Then turn off mobile data or connect to WiFi and see if it still uses the mobile network.

Apn type says - default, supl. But there is no way to change it.Its greyed.
I think the only way is to dissable 4g (when not using the phone or when wi fi is active) , and remain on H+, for me its free. And that way will not lose my 1 Gb quota.

I have exactly the same issue. When I clicked on the APN type, I got a free text box and I didn't know what to type in. In the end I deleted the APN. This obviously means that I can't use mobile data when I want to. This is very frustrating and seems like a bug. Please post if you find a solution...
