I use Dazzle Widget. Also allows me to move Wifi, GPS, Sound, Brightness, Bluetooth, etc all to the homescreen with a widget.. Works wonders

What ROM (if any) are you using? Anything 2.2+ should have the option to disable/enable data connection from the power menu. Otherwise, the extended controls widget worked well for me.

Widgetsoid works great for me.

I like several of the curvefish widgets. You should try the battery widget and the vibrate widget.

Thanks alot guys for the response, appreciated it very much..
I picked the widgetsoid2x, as what the above poster mentioned it runs really good and it does what it says in the description..
I Recommended that app..
Thanks again!

Searching for an on/off Data-Connection app...

I´m looking for an app which easily let me swtich between Data-Connection on/off.
I´ve tested APN on/off widget and one which is called Toggle Data.
Both start and stop the data-connection correctly, but a few seconds after stopping the connection starts again, think thisis a HD2 specific problem, because these apps work with other phones.....
Has anyone found an app which works with the HD2 LEO?
there is a widget pre-installed that's called power control, i use it to turn on/off wifi, data, gps, and display light. I don't know if every build has it.
The build that i use has no widget called power control.....
There's plenty of widgets for this on the Market. Just do a search on there for things like "power control" or "control widget" etc..
I use SwitchPro. It's a paid app, but only cheap. It's VERY configurable and I highly recommend it.
I have tested Switch Pro.
When I try to enable/disable data connection, nothing happens.....

Are you using Gingerbread? I only ask because Gingerbread doesn't play nicely with some apps, and I found a lot of the toggles didn't work with Switch Pro on Gingerbread. I'm back to Froyo now and they all work perfectly.
Yes I´m using gingerbread.
Ok i guess this is the problem.......
Hi,
I use data enabler, its free to download from the market. It does not allow to turn off/on data connection, but it takes you to mobile network menu and with widget placed on home screen you get fast accsses to it. Works on Gingerbread without problem.
I recommend Quick Settings free from the market,does the job nicely.
Check on Market 'CurveFish'
Go to market and type in 'curvefish' They have a bunch or widget toggle switches for free. The one you will be interested in is their 'APN OnOff' app.
*Edit* Tried it, your right, turns off and then back on again. Sorry.
try Dataswitch its a free app

Agree -...it´s free and works perfect for me! (Rafdroid 2.3)
Try widgetzoid, it can do that and much more, one of my must have apps!
Apndroid works best for me, especially combined with 3g watchdog, makes sure i can't go over my limit

I didn't change a thing within the settings except change the device profile at the top to HTC Thunderbolt, I enabled wifi encryption so I could set a password for the wifi, make sure wifi driver reload is checked, make sure routing fix is checked, and make sure disable wake lock is checked... oh, and I changed battery temperature to farenheit so I could actually read the temp. Lol.
You should be set to go man.

[Q] Control Data Roaming in Minimoto 1.7

I am not allowed to post in the developer thread so am posting here. I have Minimoto 1.7 installed on my D3. I love it, but am travelling in another country now and can't figure out how to control data roaming. The standard Battery/Data settings menu item is not there. Any suggestions/solutions?
Thanks

Thanks. Do you know if this will let you control data roaming? It looks like it just keeps it on all of the time.
I don't know, I've never had cause to use it, try asking in the app thread
Sent from my XT860 using xda premium
The app only enables data roaming right now.
Tomorrow if I have some time I will upload a new version with a disable button.
UPDATE
I just uploaded a new version which allows for manually disabling data roaming.

This is very useful. Thanks. I was travelling in Italy and had no way to turn data roaming on and off because that control is missing form the menu.

Keyguard not disabling on wifi.

I had tried to make my Keyguard go off when I'm at my home wifi, and it simply doesn't work. I'm using tasker and I'm using the same profile as I did on my SGS2 and that was perfect but the HTC One is a bit more trouble some with this setting. If anyone has done this and got it to work successfully please include it. Much appreciated to sharing your time.

I am having the same problem with tasker, I am gonna try older version of tasker!!
I just started using Tasker... and it really works funkily. I have used Tasker itself and Secure Settings, both, to disable the keyguard when I am connected to my WIFi... And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes while I am using the phone and hit the Android Home button, it actually goes to the Pattern input lock screen.
I am using CM10 with Action Launcher on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus 16gb GSM

Damn shame Emui doesn't have within it's settings an option for "WiFi control history". Samsung does. , I was looking for it myself recently.

Ok what is "data usage this month"? I click more and I can then pick Mobile data or wifi. Then below shows me day, week and month. Could that help? Its under Wireless & networks,Data usage,Data usage this month. Now I never looked to see what is at the moment using WIFI.. I think thats what your talking about. Should be a APP for that yes?
