I have a HTC Diamond GSM. I would like to disable internet access through my cellular carrier (Rogers - Canada) and keep Wi-FI access only in order to avoid data charges. How can I do that ? In settings ? In registry ?
Thanks

You can then toggle which data connections you want to disable or enable.

What's the difference between using something like APNdroid etc to control mobile data and just going checking
[settings -> wireless & networks -> mobile networks -> data enabled]
Does this do something different?
Effectively the same operation.

Thanks for the fast reply.
Does android not allow an easy way to toggle this? Why change the APN name instead?

As in the widget to toggle data connection on/off? You have to download third party alternative.
I got charged for data even with data when roaming unchecked. Apparently A-GPS disobeys that setting. Changing/"disabling" the APN should work regardless.
Okay, i know this is a noob question... But how to i enable data network (3G for example) there doesn't seem to be an enable/disable option in settings, like in HTC Sense...
Thanks,
Edit: I upgraded to Froyo 2.2, and now the option appears
As title says....
i have already disabled HSPA and HSUPA through sgs tools but it seems i can't find anywhere how to disable GPRS and EDGE....could someone please guide me??i dont have a data plan and i only wish to use wi-fi....
Thank's for any help!!!
just delete the APN in settings or change it to something that wont work. this will disable any data use over mobile network
Thank's for replying,i've already done that....
i use apn on/off widget...
but what i really want is to disable the function completely to reduce battery drain as much as possible...!!
Long press power and something like "Data network" deactivate that. Should cope with the settings >>> wireless ... >>> mobile network >>> use packet data .
When you deactivated everything you can't really do more. You can't remove the whole data package from the phone.
Quick settings from the market is what i use . Mobile APN set to OFF = no data unless required = switch on .

It just changes the apn config to something invalid and back.

Yes but saves trying to strip stuff out of the firmware that may be more problematic .

There's always plane mode....
Or you can just take the battery out
Go to settings->wireless & networks->mobile networks and disable the data enabled option

It just does the same i thing i already suggested while installing an extra unnecessary app?
He wants to NOT use data AT ALL. So why the xtra app? No one is trying to strip anything out of the firmware here.

This does nothing different, just change APN settings to something unusable and thats the most you can do.

I stay in INDIA.
I have Purchased a HTC ONE form US.
And in that the MOBILE SHARING OPTION IS disabled and not visible.
I Unlocked the Phone now works with GSM network. But still the Mobile Sharing option is not visible in Settings>More
I read Some where that Sprint has disabled it because it has prevented the Use of Internet via Mobile to PC.
So Sprint has taken this Step to Disable the Mobile Sharing Option..
Can anyone Guide for the Same, to enable and make visible the Internet Sharing option.
Device is Rooted.
and i tried installing Root Explorer and the Changed the build.prop by getting R/W permissions, Saved the file, A back of build,prop is Credated
that means the build.prop is saved properly. Changed the USB UI tethering from 0 to 1 .
But when restarted the Phone, its Same that was Previously.
No changes are seen, which are done prvsly. no option for Mobile Sharing Network is enabled or visible.
Please Help...

May be you can try Hotspot shield or Hola.
I prefer Hola -better internet this gives per app proxy & in yhe list of apps try tethering apps
you may not be able to use wifi tethering if disabled form operators side.
If you use Hola then enable unblocker, enable acceleration, then tap on unblocker see the list of apps select the country you want & Run(play) the app.
but you can try VPNs(Hotspot shield & Hola) for same & report here if it works.
Hit Thanks If i helped.

Please try this
Install the apk
Then go into Settings -> Connections -> More Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names. Once there, press menu, and choose "Reset to default". (Make sure you have at least one apn checked after resetting defaults)
Then try Tethering. You may or may not need to reboot after resetting APNs.
Let me Know
Get Wifi tether router set interface to wlan0 then create new APN, name whatever you want, apn to fast.t-mobile.com and make sure it's set to ipv4. Set tether provisioning in build prop to false. Reboot. Enable wifi tether and try it out, should be good. I set the build prop tweaks in 3c toolbox so it should stay, tethered around 12 gigs so far with no issue.
