is there any way to turn mobile data on / off quickly? tried many power toggle widgets. they only take to the data usage menu.

If you slide down the notification panel and tap the mobile network icon, the switch is on the right. No need to go into the data usage menu.

It seems that the mobile networks menu is missing from the settings panel?
Is there a way to switch between 2G and 3G mode, maybe with a widget or something?
Sensation 4G here, in case you guys have different menu..

go to setting and than more .. under data usage there you will find mobile network just click on it and you have the settings you were looking for
If that don't work press *#*#4636#*#* you will get a menu go
To phone options in the corner of where it says 2g,3g, ect... is a drop down menu. From there you can lock the signal to what ever you want. Then scroll down press refresh.you will see a group of numbers come up on the line before the refresh button. You are good to go now.I use this method to lock on my signal. When you reboot your phone you will have to do it again because settings go back so write down the code. Hope I helped you!

I found an app that sends me directly to the networks menu. It's a widget actually, but it does the job. The option is just not directly available from the menu. The mobile network menu is just a toggle button for mobile data...

Can't remember, but there are lots of apps that do this. Search for 2G in Google Play.
Hi,
My other phone a Motorola Xt615 has a widget to toggle data connection. It came with the phone. However I don't see one for this Nexus S. It's running JB btw. Even the Power Button bar widget doesn't have it either. I have to go into traverse through various menus in Systems to switch on/off for data.
Anyone can help?

I'm on a low end PAYG tariff so manually turn data on / off over 3g. The Moto G doesn't seem to have a quick way of doing this and quick settings don't appear to be customisable... ? Unless anyone knows different ?
Press the signal icon in quick settings.

stock android is like that on every phone
you must use power toggles from play store, or exposed framework and some modules

This takes you to the menu to then toggle it..... I've come from a HTC where you can just toggle via the icon in quick settings since my first android back in the day HTC Legend. I guess thats part of Sense and I'll need to use a 3rd party app. It just feels like such a basic feature though coming from a non-stock android experience.
Swipe with two fingers from the top then tap the network button(middle one), then tap "mobile data"
Thanks all
You could also use widgetsoid from the playstore.
One tap customisable toggles in notification area.
you could also use gravitybox together with xposed to override system default toggle behavior for some toggles (wifi, bt, data, etc)

Ok still playing around with this
Flashed Uber ROM with CM12 and just loading up the apps again
On Pre paid and I switch off the data now and again. There is no option to do this on the dropdown menu from status screen. Can it be added somehow?
Whats the best app for the one plus to switch the data on and off again few on play but some don't work
Thanks
Can anyone assist with this tried everything and not sure if its the ROM or the phone?
Under settings - notification drawer -Select and order tiles
I have five tiles selected. Wifi, Bluetooth, Data connection, Airplane mode and Location. However when I pull down the dropdown menu it has all of them but when no option to turn on data via this?
I have a data toggle app but when messaging to send online easier to turn data on via the status dropdown.
Anyone?
Thanks
If the data toggle in the quick settings isn't working, long press it and you should see a little switch in the top right of the next screen, you can turn it off there.

Hi I have a quick question., can you toggle off 5g completely. In my home country (Trinidad) it doesn't have and may not have for a good few years ?.
Please post screen shot verifying it
yes, there is a quick setting in the tile pull-down menu.
5g is off by default .. I have never enabled.
sorry, cant be bothered doing screenshots if you dont believe me .. or check phone screenshots on notebookcheck.net or gsmarena.com
Ok thanks...
Yes you can toggle it On or Off as you desire.
For everyday use I ensure that 5G is Off. As 4G+ spped are more than enough for browsing and watching videos, and 5G consumes more battery and generate more heat.
I only turn it On when downloading large apps or torrents to get the most benefits of the high speeds.
Screenshot in attachments.
That button appears only when you have a 5G sim card? I don't see that icon for enable/disable 5G in pull-down menu, not even in edit mode, only in Settings, Mobile Network I can select 5g/4g/3g/2g.

Is there a 4g/3/2g option?
This is what I got, also on last firmware .121.
This is what I got, also on last firmware .121.
I am using a different dpi setting 'smallest width' .. hence a bit different in size from above screenshot
Thank you all for the information
