[Q] Allow only one app to access data connection - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hey everyone,
I'm looking for an app or a way to allow only one (whatsapp) application to access my 3G data connection. All other apps should be blocked from accessing the data connection. Also system apps.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

If your TF101 is rooted.. then I suggest you install droidwall from market(play store). Kind of like firewall..

[APP REQ] MIUI Monitor App

Hi all.
I have tried classic ways but couldn't manage to port it. I guess my knowledge wasnt enough..
With monitor app you can control every apps connection seperately. For instance you can limit whatsapp to access internet solely over wifi or 3g..
And many other options..
Can anyone do it? Or is it done anyhow?

Try Cerberus.. Has a lot of features... U can also put on data or wireless and gps by sending SMS.. It doesn't cost too much

Try aeGis, you can remote control your smartphone via sms !
My vote is for Cerberus.

I'm using Cerberus too.
It just works !
Use avast, and you will get also antivirus
Avast is for me as well the best. Antivirus and anti theft in one.remote control works.if installed with root, it will survive factory reset and wipe data enabled...

Try xtether module. You need to install closed frame work then search for the module in the app

if your phone is rooted, you can configure your iptables to block internet access
Literally the only features I'm aware of that would mean not using another app would be to disable data /WiFi, or enter flight mode. But obviously, that's system wide, and not app specific.
Why would you like to do this without another app?
