I know it may sound a little silly, but some time ago, some great xda user made wifi shortcut app.
Personally i thought it was one of most awesome and usefull app made on that phone (i just think that going trough settings is kinda retarded on that kind of high end smartphone). The main problem is that after mango update this app stopped working, and now im sad ..
Anyway is there any dev that could make such a usefull piece of software ?
I was hoping for the same thing. I've been keeping open under multitasking for the time being.
What about data toggle?
Such a shame this does not work anymore http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934727 :/
Yes, thats what i meant, must have for mango in my opionion, to be honest i cant believe that microsoft didnt allow users to pin that to start screen

they have wifi, flight mode, sim settings, & bluetooth shortcuts that work with Mango
they also have connection manager app that include all of them + GPRS data on/off too
I have asked them for a GPRS data on/off stand-alone shortcut
Only Samsungs

I too find hard to believe that these connectivity settings are not handy as in Android. Unfortunately the ones of ahmed's link are just for Samsungs.
Hopefully somebody here can "fix 'em" for HTCs and LGs

regardless of apndroid status, 3G traffic is transmitted.
does anybody has the same problem?
using rooted R2BA024 with apndroid 2.1.3
This is no firmware issue this is O2 Germany Issue
O2 Germany accepts faulty APN and let you go online anytime! So if you don't want internet traffic simply disable MMS&INTERNET or give o2 a call and let them disable it for you!
Regards
Bin4ry
but why did it worked before the update?
updated o2 anything, too?
SMODA Widget disables internet like the button in preferences. it also prevents mms beeing received.

I dont really think that it worked like it should. maybe it worked, but you was still connected to internet sometimes (we speak of 3G! on 2G it will work as i know, but not sure!)
I had a discussion with o2 some days ago because of internet costs about 90€ just for 7 hours my GF has forgotten to disable internetconnection in settings until flatrate was activated.
O2 says that they want to be userfriendly, so they enabled access for ALL APN-SETTINGS even if they are not right!
And now what? We have to pay 90€ and i immediatly quit the new contract again. Bad for o2
I just wanted to warn you to have an eye on that

SMODA Widget is not as goog as i thought. I reads one the page that this app is using undocumented internal functions... some other apps know these functions and are using them too, therefore, SMODA cannot lock internet traffic securely!

It's not for wifi, it only enables/disables data traffic.
What's the use of this app ?
Well I couldn't find one that offers this exact feature : other apps either open the network preferences screen (which then requires 1 more click), or don't offer a direct access from the notification bar.
I'm using it everyday to save some battery (at least it was not useless work ).
How to install it ?
Install SwitchDataSwitch via Android Market :
Or through other ways (including .apk download) : http://bitbucket.org/nicobo/switchdataswitch/wiki/Installing
Note : It makes use of the application "DataSwitch", so you'll be offered to install it if you don't have it already (I am not affiliated with DataSwitch however, and I don't even know its developer...).
For developers
This is my first app, and I'll be glad if anyone could give me feedback about it.
It uses some tricks that might not be fully compliant with all devices...
If you're interested into how I could use the notification bar without having an icon displayed, head to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286318. This post describes how to code the most interesting part of this application !
Cool. I'll give it a try.
Edit: This works great. It's nice to be able to turn off data with one click. This might help keep me from going over my 5 gigs/month like I did last month.

Thanks for your feedback !
Btw, to help you manage your 'gigs' addiction you should try this nice app : 3G Watchdog (not mine).
Don't hesitate to tell me if you need more features with SwitchDataSwitch !

Hello guys!
The Screen On application was a success and we thought it could be a great idea to expand the abilities of this application. We developed a new application called App Auto Settings, that works exactly as the Screen On application but let's you take control not only of the screen, but of WiFi, Bluetooth, Mobile Data, GPS and volume!
We have tested the app in as many devices as we could and it works fine, but please try it and report any bugs, suggestions or ideas, we cannot test it in all those mobile phones...
AppAutoSettings @ Android Market
Thx for share.
Not seeing option for GPS on SGSII.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Edit: 20/11/2011
So is this a beta limitation? or a limitation of GB where programs can not call for GPS on without user request like Tasker?
well, that's my bad...
at first, we wanted to take control of the GPS, but unfortunately for security reasons (good in my opinion), Google decided that only the user will be able to enable and disable the GPS, so we removed it from the application.
The screenshot though is old, and I will replace it!
Thank you for noticing it!
OK, I'm confused. No offense, but it is not very intuitive. I just downloaded it, and I cannot tell the difference between Red and Green on the Screen Timeout in the On Charge profile, and either way I set it, the screen timed out! Also, on WiFi and such, what's the difference between Red, Green and the white box? I also don't see my Navigation app.
good app

Hi mate,
Yeah the app in reference is My Data Monitor. See the link below to the android market listing.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mobidia.android.mdm&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5tb2JpZGlhLmFuZHJvaWQubWRtIl0.
Thanks man !
Thanks OP for bringing this up
My Data Manager
Can anyone tell me if we can change the top icons: Wifi, bluetooth, GPS, Silent mode, auto rotation.
The aTT model has Airplane mode up there and I want that instead of Silent mode.
Thanks
thanks, great app !
I'm using Onavo which is also excellent for data monitoring...

you need to install jay kays deluxe addon, this enables you to change them and configure it for more

I think one needs root for the above add-on, correct?
Yep. Widgetsoid can also be used, doesn't require Root (although it'll add a second row to do it, which may or may not be welcome news).

Hi bigoliver i found that option but nothing to configure just on/off
It is installed but no options to use it
Search the settings several times
Can't find
I don't use the feature myself, so assumed it was a simple on/off setting.
Hopefully someone with more experience is able to help.
This option is for some reason hidden but we have it on our phone. I access it with Bluetooth in my car. When I first time connected my phone and car, I got notification about smart unlock and when I press on that notification I got setting for smart unlock and then choose gps. That's only way I could activate that, and I can tell you that unlocking doesn't working 90% of the time, both Bluetooth and GPS. I had similar problem with s8 plus, but not that much.
