Recommend a mobile web killer

Hi, I'm using android on my hd2, I know power issues are a common problem. I'm currently using set CPU to ease battery drainage. After using juice plotter, I've found the mobile web (apn) been costantly on to be a big cause of battery loss. Is there a decent program on marketplace that will limit the access time of the mobile web. I've tried juice defender but found it not to work. Any other ones out there.
Cheers

hi
i use "extended controls" to enable and disable the web connection (on my x10)

Thanks for the reply ill give it a try. It seems that its only a toggle for sync / apn. I was looking more for a schedule. Ie turn on automatically for a set time then off again. I know juice defender. Does this but as I say. For me apn is still active. When the program should have disabled. It. The interface isn't very good. And no option for customising individual programs. So does anyone know of a program that will help. Due to trial and error I've found to save battery on rooted Droid, make sure all your emails are ticked off as read or apn will constantly try download them constantly. With huge battery drain

[Q] [query - APP] data usage app (time and/or data usage)

I know about '3g watchdog' - which monitors data usage.
but I need an app which monitor time used. Here (thailand) I can buy hours of data usage time, and not by data usage data size.
any1 know an app which does this? I use juicedefender to auto turn off/on data usage, but need an app which sums upp the time for when edge/3g has been on.

Wifi usage app with SSID breakdown??

I have searched for an app to monitor my Wifi Usage with a breakdown by SSID - For example I want to be able to see SSID-Home 1.2gb --- SSID-Work 500mb ------ SSID-Hotspot 500mb... All apps I have checked out just show a total Wifi usage with app breakdown.. including the built in data usage setting... Anybody know of an app that has this functionality?

The paid version of Mobile Counter has the functionality to track the usage of one SSID. The video on the free version shows that field functional but after installing it the field was grayed out. I am waiting for my freedompop device to arrive before downloading the trial version to make sure it works properly.
Traffic Monitor / RadioOpt let you track a Home SSID and a Work SSID but they show the results as percentage and not data so you would need to do the math, I suppose, unless I missed something in the settings.
There was a developer on this site that tweaked the code of NetCounter to get the desired results but if it turned into an available app then I have not seen it.

I ended up going with Mobile Counter Pro - for the same reason - I picked up freedompop. My cycle just started again -however, the numbers seem right on - Mobile Counter Pro shows - 31.06MB and Freedompop shows 30.96MB, it works for one SSID, the only one I have limits on..

That is good to hear, and probably what I will end up doing unless something better shows up while I am waiting. (I was hoping for something that shows the chosen Wifi usage in the widget, plus the addition of data & wifi on/off buttons would make it a nice compact widget bundle)

You can analyse your traffic with e.g Traffic Monitor app and restrict data connection for apps using a firewall like droidwall.
Traffic Monitor show you Data usage per installed App.

Will that firewall run without root??

No

There is a firewall that works without root. It acts as an VPN.

Monitoring real time traffic data per app

When i was on KK i had that awesome app "network log"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.networklog
Then i upgraded to MM and it stopped working.
I need an app to monitor real time traffic data (dl/ul) PER APP.
Apps like internet speed meter display traffic data in total not per app.
There are other apps that can display data usage per app but not real time....
Where can i find that app to be like network log and do this job?
