[q] App like NoData for Android? - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys!
I searched this Forum for NoData, but not a single thread turned up. :/
I want to test Android (SD Version) on my HD2 soon and need a App like NoData for it because I don't have a mobile internet flat.
If NoData doesn't ring a bell: It's a simple WinMo App that doesn't allow any app or system component to access mobile internet.
Is there a similar thing for Android? (I'm thinking of running a 2.2 Android version)

Put it in Airplane Mode

Just disable mobile data in settings.

DroidWall if you want to select certain applications.

And it works and stays off? That would be great! On WinMo you can only cancel a established connection with the stock software.

Try superpower from market and here on xda. 3gwatch turns your 3g off like nodata. There should be a simple cmd line for turning off 3g but don't remember it

NoData like app for Android
A little late to post but for anyone who has been looking for a WinMo NoDATA like app then I've been successfully using APN on-off widget by Pedro Maicas.

i too looked for No Data, but then i found that going into the settings and just unchecking works all the same =)

Hello I am in the same situation
I upgrading from HTC HD windows mobile to Samsung Galaxy note this christmas , and probaly Nexus later...
On HTC HD i have the NODATA is very useful cause the flat internet i have is not good, have a prepay card and everytime a widget conect to internet company charge med 3 Euro a day even if i Surf internet or not ....aweful
So i installed NOdata on HTC the moments i not used internet and saved a lot of money
Now on Android i need a similar solution for Galaxy note and nexus
Reading this thread i understand there is not a NO-data version for android
but there is 4 options
1. Just disable mobile data in settings
2.DroidWall if you want to select certain applications
3.3gwatch
4. apndroid
Can anyone tell me how i disable mobile data in settings on a Galaxy note i just got it yesterday
What is the difference between Droidwall,3gwatch and apndroid
and which of theese perform most similar to Nodata.
What i want is simple ZERO transfer of widget updats without my permision
cause that means 3 euro and if i dont plan surf internet that day i am not going to pay those 3 euro
I might find it less useful when i move over to another company and better flat fee but for now i realy need a No data app

Use apndroid to block certain apps. Shutting off all mobile data will stop Mms from working

BlackBerry Connect Data Connection

Hi All, is there a way I can hack into the BlackBerry Connect windows mobile data connection so I can use Opera Mini and Google Maps using the free 250mb allowance I have with the BlackBerry data service? Would be so cool if this were possible! Many thanks.
Anyone got any ideas?
This is just in theory. If you phone only has one internet connection (Blackberry Connect) then all data will use that one. Case in point. I have had a PDA phone with the Blackberry personal plan only. While it was the unlimited plan I'm certain that all data was used via the subscribed internet plan.
One last way to be sure is to disable (delete) the media net connection. Assuming your on ATT

Dean, I am looking for the same thing. With Pocket IE the blackberry data service is not worth it for me.
I'm suprised nobody knows a way of doing this! Some website just don't load with Pocket Internet Explorer but load perfectly with Opera Mini or Skyfire. If I use these browsers a new data connection is established which adds cost to my bill rather than using the BlackBerry data connection which costs me nothing! Please help!
Yeah it would be great if someone figures this one out. I use Opera Mobile which makes for a much better browsing experience, and with it u can download large files which seems to be n limitation on Pocket IE.
I cannot believe a hack would be that difficult especially as there is a download version of Opera Mini for BlackBerry devices! I so would love someone to work this out and wish I had the talent to even attempt it! Here’s hoping some bright spark can help!

Data connection control

Is there a application for Nexus One or any other way to control what applications can make/have data-connections?
I at least travel alot and I need my mail to be updated but then again I don't need some other programs to do access internet when I'm abroad or when I'm home.
It's really stupid that the only way is to disconnect the whole data connection and then when you want to check your mail you need to activate it again, then some other program might do updates too. Which means lot of data is sent and received unnecessary!
E.g. my old crapy SonyEricsson mobile you could define what an application could do, Access internet, access sms...etc.
Yeah, I think DroidWall (on the market) will do what you want.
Allows you to set up a whitelist for apps that can use the cellular data connection.
Needs root and I've no relation to the developer... a mate uses it and says it does what he needs.
Great, I will try it! Thanks!
Too bad you need to have root. But for me it will work, but not for some of my friends.

Wifi & mobile data monitor

can someone recommend a simple ap to show wifi and mobile data usage for the hd2. Preferably a freeware app.
have tried the one in the cabs repository but it doesn't work
SPB Wireless Monitor is the best solution I have found for this but it isn't free unfortunately. Worth the money though, I have used it for months.

thanks, yea i have looked at it, but it seems pricey for what it does
maybe i'm just narked that it's not built into the phone and i dont want pay to have it

HTC HD2 Apps: Loudtalks v0.9.0.70

Turn your HD2 into walkie talkie with Loudtalks.
Loudtalks is a push-to-talk application for Windows and Windows phones. It's lightweight, easy to use and extremely fast. Better yet it's free and will always remain free for personal use.
Features:
Fast - Loudtalks conversations are nearly as fast as face-to-face and possibly the fastest way to communicate online.
Easy to use - To start talking you just push F7. It works even when the application is minimized.
One to many - With Loudtalks you can voice message two, three or even a hundred people simultaneously.
Voice history - Re-play your conversations when you want from the voice history.
Lightweight - We hate bloated software. Loudtalks setup for Windows is under 2 Mb and the program takes up little system resources and memory
Automatic - In the most cases you don't have to configure anything to start using Loudtalks
Loud - Unlike traditional VoIP applications you don't have to use a headset with Loudtalks. Just plug-in a microphone (or use a built-in one) and play the sound via speakers. That's much more convenient.
Portable - When installed on USB thumbdrive Loudtalks will recognize that and will work in portable mode leaving no trace on host computers.
Mobile - Use Loudtalks for Windows Mobile to turn your handheld into two-way radio!
Multilingual - Loudtalks has been translated to 11 languages. More translations will be added over time.

Pretty much what I was thinking, this app is amazing.
Wonder what the battery usage is on it. Anyone know if it's a bat killer? I just got it. Also, anyone try this for gaming yet?

ive been using this app since its first public release. it is a major battery killer concidering it is in a constant send/recieve mode. overall this app is cool but you should use it while the charger is plugged in.
cool app works good (not nextel) battery killer though
I have been using this app for several days on touch pro 2 it works good as long as you dont go to "options" in menue and try to change anything in "control' the phone crashes and battery needs to be removed. However it works great if you dont mess with control in menue options
And there is a new version uploaded on loudtalks.com a while ago. Version 0.9.0.77 is the actually one (see my signature)

Best Data counter?

Hi
I'm kinda new to android.
Whats the best data counter for android?
Thanks a lot

Hi.
If your are after something to monitor your 3g data allowance, 3G Watchdog is pretty good. You can set your limits and monthly renewell date, and it'll warn you if you get near your limit, and turn off 3g if you reach it.
On the other hand, Traffic Monitor logs all data, 3g and wifi, and very usefully logs which app is using what. Very useful if you suspect one app of chewing through more data than it should. You can also test network speeds with it.

i use netsentry. works nice, matches with what vodafone is telling me.
I use data counter widget https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roysolberg.android.datacounter&feature=search_result
Because i install new roms all the time and i 3g watch dog is useless if i change rom.
You can set to show daily traffic, but if you tap it it shows data used yesterday/2 days ago..last month...etc
LE: Didn't try to use titanium backup on 3G watchdog just before instaling new rom...that would be one idea. But i just like to have a live widget.
i think 3g watchdog is really the best
greetz
3G watchdog. There is a built-in counter in the new Sense 3.5 Rom
wow,it seems that you have flash that,how about it?
Htc you mean the bliss ROM 3.5sense ?

The Built-in Data Counter available in MIUI ROM is working cool
"3G Watchdog" or "Call Meter" does the job.
does anyone know any time-based counter for data? thanks!
Traffic counter is the best imo, dunno if it's time based.
Call meter is OK
try
Try 3G Watchdog.This is what I am using for a long time with no problems.
Data Detective is a newish app that shows mobile and wifi traffic per application in addition to the totals. It also shows the costs of mobile data per app in your local currency.
Personally I use Call Meter NG (free on market) since I first got my DS.
Very simple and elegant, and also tells me the minutes and texts I used.
I'm using DroidStats. Works very fine for me.
Zdbox is great!!!!
