How can I set the "used amount" of my mobile data? There are only options for setting mobile data limit and change cycle?

how to prevent data roaming?
Is there a way to detect when im outside local area when using data, so it will stop automatically or show some kind of notice.
If accidentally using data while roaming for a while, it would be costly.

Try APNdroid, you will find it on the Android market.

So I've done some research on this and couldn't find a clear answer. There are two types of data toggle widgets you can use to turn data on/off . One type will actually enable/disable mobile data. The other type will change the APN settings (for instance, Elixir widget adds/removes '-elixir' suffix to the APN settings) to indirectly control data feed on phone, but the mobile data stays on all the time.
My question is, would these data widgets that alter APN settings save battery? I'm guessing they wouldn't because data actually stays on and the phone would keep searching for data signal...
If the APN is disabled or can not connect because the information is invalid due to a name change, there is no data connection.
Either way, your battery will benefit significantly.
Is there any way to restrict which apps can access the network if don't have an unlimited data plan.
To choose which apps will use wifi and when not on wifi which will use mobile data.

I don't think there is an option for that atleast in the stock ROM.
I can't find any way to change proxy settings for mobile data. I also looked up for an app to do so but no chance. Any workaround or suggestion on how to do it ?
There's is dedicated option in WiFi menu but not in mobile data menu.
I know I can restrict app's mobile data usage, but is there a way to also restrict wifi usage for apps?
