[Q] Working data switch/toggles widget for Gingerbread ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Extended controls doesn't seem to have updated for GB yet.
I need one that simply renames the data APN so i can still send MMS easily.

If i read the post correct then try Quick Settings .
Turn of mobile data APN and still sends mms .

I have the same problem. Apparently this is a known gingerbread problem, but does someone have an idea to solve it? quicksettings and all the other programs don't seem to work. Whenever I turn on wifi it turns off mobile data, but when I turn wifi off it activates it automatically.. no way to turn it off permanently

The APN name switcher widgets don't work on 2.3.4.
I'm tired of clicking through the menus to get to the mobile data on/off setting!
There has to be a solution for 2.3.4.! HTC Roms have a switcher, so couldn't someone port that for everyone or do something similar?

Shortcut to activate data connection?

Hi everyone.
Just a simple question:
Is there a way to make a shortcut to start menu to activate a data connection?
I installed the new comm manager found here, but the data connection option is greyed out. It only works when a connection is active.
Search the forum but couldn't find anything like what I want?
Any ideas?
A data connection is activated when an application requests data. As far as I know there's no way nor any need to start it manually.
I am using Phone Weaver to toggle Wifi, Bluetooth and Data Connection (GPRS).

Disable Mobile Network

Is there any way to disable the mobile network on the Nexus One?
On the HTC Hero there was an widget to set the mobile network on/off!
And in the system settings there was a checkbox, but on the Nexus One i dont find any of this...
i think your looking for apndroid
look for it in market
I've tried it but the mobile connection is not disconnected.
The apndroid changes the APN settings and add "apndroid" to it, but this makes no difference for me... the mobile connection is on and i am surfing
Is there no system setting?
how is dat possible? if the apn is called something else surely u cant surf using ure phone
goto the dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* and you will see settings there to turn off the cellular data connection.
no he's right, apn droid doesn't do **** on the n1. at least when I tried. and yes. i rebooted. don't know how it figures out the connection with apndroid appended to its parameters... what I do is just delete the APN's compeltely
So there is no way to disable the mobile connection from the system...
Very strange because on my HTC Hero there was such an option and widget.
I use Locale and want to disable the mobile connection in the night.
Flightmode is not usable for me because the telephone should ring, only the wifi and mibile connection should be off.
JuiceDefender has a home screen widget to disable the apn
Thanks but JuiceDefender has one added a Note:
Might not work on CDMA phones w/ Android 2.1
Very sad :-(

bump, i was a user of csipsimple and had it setup to only activate over wifi connections and i wanted to test the native sip client in gingerbread with those same settings. i prefer NOT to use sip over 3g or edge. thanks.
any idea yet.. i cant find ANYTHING!
Google AOSP source code allow SIP calls over wifi only.
In CyanogenMod, the wifi-only limitation is removed, allowing SIP calls over 3G, like in almost all other custom rom.
There is no option to change this in CM7 under " settings -> call settings -> Internet Call Settings -> Use internet calling : "
So, I don't think you can change it without modifying by yourself CyanogenMod's code and recompiling your own ROM, then flash it.
it would be great if there was an option to turn it on or off

thats not what I was asking. I have the ability to set up SIP in Settings -> CALL -> Accounts (under the Internet Call settings) and then -> Receive incoming calls
There is a check box to turn on and off, I want to know if there is a widget that will turn it on and off, like you can for WiFi.
I dont care about 3g/wifi.. right now with the Rom I have it works on both no problems.
I have the same concern. There is custom ROM, which is actually based on CM7, only supports internet call over WIFI. Is there any thing that we can do to disable the internet call over 3G, but leave internet call over WIFI enabled?
Thanks!
Now I am using CSipSimple instead of the CM7 built-in SIP client. The CM7 built-in SIP client only supports PCMU codec, which is not optimized for limited bandwidth. The latest version of CSipSimple supports G729 as well as full control of which type of wireless networks. And CSipSimple is free (G729 is optional, user suppose to pay for the codec).

Not receiving SMS/MMS on stock messaging app.

Hi, first of all thanks for the help you could bring me. My problem is that since yesterday night I'm not receiving any kind of sms or mms on my stock messaging app. Today I was trying to solve it but with no success. So I installed Go SMS Pro and to my surprise it worked, I started receiving SMS and mms, but still the stock messaging app is not alerting of upcoming sms even though it's receiving them (I think that they share a common folder and that's why if in go SMS pro it works it'll show on stock messaging app, so in theory stock is not receiving but just showing, am I right?).
For now I'm using SMS go pro, but I'd like to know why this happened. I read something about accessing a hidden testing menu (*#*#4636#*#*) to change the smsc but that menu is not available on my phone (any idea why?) tried the code above and tried using those apps that serve as a shortcut. The screen goes dark as it's trying to access the testing menu and returns to home screen, in other apps (like missing shortcuts) it shows as unavailable. I even edited the hiddenmenu file on efs/carrier from OFF to ON and still the testing menu doesn't appear. I'm using my phone right now with mobile data, wifi works well and so do phone calls, no problems at all.
I'd really appreciate any ideas that could help me. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 running 4.3 firmware, I updated from 4.1.2 a couple of days ago but didn't have any problems, I could receive sms normally. The problem happened suddenly yesterday night.

there is an option in Messaging app...Auto Retrieve - check if enabled....
if other app work with no problem it's just an app related problem..not something else...check in app setting maybe something is not enabled...
a factory reset would make it work for sure....but is too much...

Thanks for the answer. Yeah, I don't want to factory reset since I've just did it to upgrade to 4.3. About the app settings, I've just tried all the possible combinations. I'm just using GO SMS Pro for now but MMS aren't downloading. Sigh.

try this: go to Settings->More->Application Manager-> Select "All" tab -> select Messaging-> Clear data + Clear cache...

Notifications from many apps wont show up when on LTE/4G/3G but they show up on wifi

So I have the note 5 for few months now and after all this time I haven't found a solution.
Basically I use the app called livescore and few other football/soccer apps that notify my when I select certain matches for goals to show up like notifications.
The settings in the app its self is fine, notifications are on, the settings in app manager are also fine.
I haven't found anywhere settings for notifications to show up or not when not on wifi. Do those settings exist? If they don't then what the problem might be?
Its really frustrating as the same thing doesn't happen with whatsapp which works fine with notifications over LTE/4G but when it comes to other apps it just wont work.
ALSO my samsung default email app wont show up new emails unless I am on wifi or unless while on LTE/4G I go inside the app and refresh it.

Hey,
This also randomly just happened to me. The way I fixed it is by going into settings --> Applications --> Application Manager --> MORE --> Reset App Preferences. Notifications all came in after i did that and haven't had a problem since. Let me know if it works!
