[Q] Mobile Data Toggle Widget

Hi all,
Can't get any widgets that I've found to toggle mobile data. Tried Widgetsoid, Beautiful Widgets, Extended controls...nothing works. Anybody else have luck?

I use the Airplane mode toggle from Widgetsoid. I can still toggle RF On/OFF and mobile data stays off....

Oh. Ha. Good point...no phone features...duh.

Shortcut to Turn 'Data-Roaming' On / Off ?

Is there a shortcut or widget to simply turn off/on the data roaming option?
It would be so much easier than going through home/ settings/wireless & network/ mobile networks
thank you

I use widgetsoid 2x.There is a option to add shortcut for system activities.

Also you can download a handy little app called 'Anycut' from the market which lets you create a shortcut to more or less any function. I use it for turning ON/OFF background data.

i have try widgetsoid x2 but system activities is limit, i don't see data-roaming only , there are network ,2g/3g , however can you explain me how?
I have also Anycut, ilt should be but with 2 actions , when i run shortcuts and i must enable the ratio . what's the name system activies for this?
Thank you

use the 2g 3g toggle from CurveFish. its very simple and neat app.
when you open the widget, u will be taken to mobile network settings page, when you can turn on/off the data roaming.

4g toggle

Does anyone know if there is a widget capable of toggling the 4g on and off?

I haven't found a widget but you can switch between 4g/3g in this menu...
Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Network Mode

That's been my current method, but i'm looking for something much faster for when I know ill be watching nfl live stream or using the market.

I have not found one either. Extended controls has the controller widget but I don't think it's updated for Bionic yet. Errors saying your device is not 4g-capable.

Have you tried Power Control Plus? I don't know if it's compatible with the Bionic (and I haven't seen any upgrade notices for it recently), but I believe it had a 4G toggle available.

The app "LTE Switch" is good. throw a shortcut on the homescreen and it takes you directly to the settings to turn it on/off

In my opinion this works good. it also gives you the choice for 1ex (cdma only) in those areas (like my work) where the phone is trying to access 3g but cant.
So you have the option to go 1ex, 3g or lte.

I just downloaded LTE switch and I agree that it works well enough for now.

Zdbox network widget works as well

Switch 3G+Data<->2G(no data) with one click

Do you know any mean to switch automatically from 3G with data to 2G without data and vice versa with only one click?

Notification toggle or power widget.
we will miss you Nicholas.... /s

Thanks for a suggestion, but on neither Notification Toggle nor Power Widget (lite) I couldn't achieve my desired function. Could you clarify how to do it?

use an app like Tasker or AutomateIt pro to create a profile with the following tasks:
1. Switch Data 2G/3G
2. Turn Data Off
Create a shortcut for this profile in your homescreen, and use it as your toggle widget.
Tasker has a HUGE range of features, but AutomateIt pro Is much easier to use, and is cheaper!
Also, automateit has a FREE version, which has features enough for you.
Hope i helped!

I can't find in AutomateIt Free 2g/3g or Data on/off trigger/action. Will take a look at tasker.

Try using the "Set Mobile Data Action" on AutomateIt

I think it's there. Check again.

I appreciate developer's feedback. But what would trigger set mobile data?

That depends on how/when you want to disable or enable data.
Some users use the screen on trigger to enable data and screen off trigger to disable data (conserves battery) - you can download these rules from the app built-in rules market:
Data off when screen is off
Data on when screen is on
Others use the wifi state trigger so when there is a wifi connection data will be disabled:
WiFi On, Mobile data Off
On top of this - if you don't have a specific trigger for that and you want to control it manually from your home page, you can use the "Manual Trigger" and create a widget that runs the rule to enable or disable data on the device.

Create a rule with two actions:
1. Switch to 2g
2. Turn if data.
add a shortcut to home screen.
Click on it to turn if data AND switch to 2g.
Create another one with two rules:
1. Switch to 3g
2. Turn on data.
Add this second shortcut also to home screen.
DONE.

2G/3G toggling is not supported on AutomateIt, but if you disable data - why do you need to switch to 2G ?

oh. My bad then. Sorry
But switching to 2g is important, cuz (at least here in India) 3g network doesn't have much coverage....I can get Upto 2 bars on 3g at home, but full signal when I switch to 2g.

As ykumar00 written - I have poor 3G coverage in my home place, so switching to 2G lets me be always available and helps preserve power (poor signal = searching for Cell Towers).

Tasker can easily do this...

Thanks. I am fooling around with tasker. Is is possible to set a 'mobile data on/off' context? I can only do "On switch to 2g/3g switch data on/off", but I would rather like to have "On data on/off switch 2g/3g" (because I have a system data on/off switch easily available).

There isn't an 3G toggle in my settings # [JB][ROM][CM10.1][4.2.2] JellyNexus 31-03-

Hello,
As the title already sais, i don't have an 3G toggle in my settings, does anyone know how this is possible, or how I could get it?
Much thanks,
Raoul bouwens

if you talking about data the network toggle is you 3g toggle.

The tile with the signal of your operator is the data toggle.
In the system settings you can change the behavior of that (2G/3G/off, 3G/off, etc).
