Is there an app or widget with which you can manually sync all widgets requiring data connection and email accounts and all other accounts if you have mobile data turned off or not always on data.
UPDATE:
What I'm looking for, I'll try to explain in the following scenario.
1. I have mobile data turned off to save power with the mobile data that came with sense on my HTC Eris.
2. I want to hit this widget, and what it should do is turn on the mobile data long enough to refresh the HTC weather widget, twitter, facebook and other widgets that depend on internet. After that it should turn the mobile data back off.
I use Extended controls. It is basically a modified Power Control Widget that allows you to choose the widget size 1x1, 1x2, 1x3 and 1x4.
The widget bar has 2 color styles, black and white and allows for you to change the transparency of the bar in increments of 10.
Also allows you to choose which controls you wished to have placed on the widget itself
*2g-3g switch
*Data network switch (enable/diable data)
*Wifi
*Bluetooth
*GPS
*Autosync (press once to turn off auto sync and press again and it will turn back on and begin syncing your data. This is what you are asking about in the OP)
*Brightness (have mine set as user selectable when pressed but also an option to have it increase in increments when pressed)
*autorotate
*airplane mode
*media scanner
*silent/vibrate
*timeout (backlight timer)
*torch (use lcd or flash as flashlight)
*silent
*autolock (press disables autolock)
*screen always on*mass storage
*battery
*reboot
there you go. Great Widget. I love it.
Dazzle is a free but slightly less comprehensive version of Extended Controls. For you, OP, it is perfectly suitable as it does have the sync on-off switch option. Just make a 1x1 widget and choose only Sync.
Description:
The ultimate switcher bar for your phone. Choose from 4 widget sizes, and choose which controls it shows: ringer, sync, WiFi, BT, GPS, airplane, or brightness with min/max/preset (and auto toggle on some phones).
Now with both one-touch and popup controls.

that looks like what I need, but I don't think it does what I need to do.

So basically you just need a widget to turn mobile data on/off. You could look into JuiceDefender/UltimateJuice. While it might be an excessively complicated workaround, it does have a widget to turn mobile data on/off (I believe it requires root). The free version has a fixed on/off interval (1 min on for every 15 min off) but I think the pay one (UltimateJuice) will let you do everything manually (for ex, n minutes on for every m minutes off, where n and m are user specified amount of minutes). The free one does have the manual control widget though. I know this sounds complicated, but just try it for yourself lol
Edit: I got it, you can do it completely manually with the free version.
After you initially get it set up, change it to advanced view. Then, disable everything so that every field is grayed and says "Do nothing." Now, the mobile data can be completely controlled by the widget once you add it. The widget is called "Toggle mobile data."
I really think this app is what you're looking for.
Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is just my phone or not, but I can't seem to disable the data connection outside of the widget from the notification bar.
I first noticed the problem when I was attempting to create a profile that would turn off the data connection and back on every 15 minutes, but it failed to do anything.
Afterwards, I tried out some apps such as Widgetsoid2.x and put Mobile Data and 2G/3G onto the widget. However, I noticed that turning off the data from the widget would show it being off on the widget but it'll remain on in the notification bar. If i turn it off through the notification bar, the widget on the homescreen would be off. However, clicking the homescreen widget to turn it on would bring up the Mobile Network Settings screen with a toast saying, "Enable Data First".
Anyone else got this problem or have a solution?
Its not just you, I have profiles setup using Llama to switch WiFi on and off depending on where I am and of course I have it turn data off when WiFi is on.
Now I'm not sure if its a glitch related to turning it off manually, but it doesn't seem to turn back on when out of range of WiFi despite having a rule setup to do that. Yet other rules work perfectly. I just assumed it was a bug with Llama and figured I could like with it.
Hi folks,
My first post!
I'm running CM10.1 on rooted HTC ONE X.
I would like to use profiles to automate some settings on my phone, such as home, work, car etc that toggle WiFi, adjust volume, brightness...etc.
I can see three ways to do this:
1) Use CM10.1 profiles and add shortcut to profiles in quick settings panel.
2) Use NFC Task Launcher and NFC tags
3) Use Tasker and activate profiles by connecting to home WiFi, Bluetooth, near cell tower etc
I suppose I could also use a combination of the above?
What do you do? What are the pros and cons?
Thanks

ok i searched many but cant find good widget/switcher/toggle for non root phone that can switch fast and easy between 2/3/4g network....any help?
anybody?
Back on the Galaxy S2, I used to switch lots of functions thanks to the app named "Power Toggles". I can't guarantee you that it will have a switch for 2G/3G/4G, but it might have one. Basically, it's a widget that you can customize by putting the switches that you want, in the order that you want. So you might want to have a look at it, just in case it does what you need ; )
Such Toogle Apps have been blocked by Google security for most settings since Android 4 or 5, i think.
Hey all
I need a little help with the battery saver
I'm using Macrodroid and want to make a macro that enables battery saver, the problem is that it enables it ok but not "Super save" (don't know if that's the name), like if I use the icon in notificationbar or in settings
I can send intent to open the settings page but can't activate the button
UI action doesnt work with screen off and I can't turn that on when the phone is closed
Any suggestions?
