You mean you want to turn off the radio?
Simple method is to go to Settings -> Wireless controls -> Airplane mode. NOTE: This turns off all radios, including WiFi.
If you want a icon to do this, go to the Market and download AnyCut and make a shortcut to Airplane mode.

no not turn off the radio , just close all open connection. cuz i can't see if there's some connection open !!!!!!

A little more description on your dilema would be apreciated.
Who charged you 55 euros?
Are you talking about data transmissions?
If your phone is on and you have service with some provider AND haven't installed any apps that require streaming data, you should not have any "open connections" as you say.

anycut to 'phone info' might help.
'service viewer' in marketplace, but without root cant kill ;{

No need for a task manager as the device closes programs on its own.
To disable all data connections use anycut to phone info (like said above) and then menu -> more and you can disable data connection for just that time or disable it on boot to disable forever.
If you were charged 55 euros for using data then you need to get a different phone as this phone is meant for an always on connection so it is connected 24/7

Well I have the same issue. There are no affordable dataplan in the country I live in so letting any application use as much network as it feels like is not an option.
Sadly the phone does not have a way to control who's allowed to use the radio/network or anything for that matter past the installation time. So if pong3d has been installed with full network access you're screwed it can wake up at any time and start streaming whatever it wants from and to your phone. It can even clog your bandwidth and make your browsing suck.
I understand the whole fully connected device thing, but I still think this is a major flaw as users end-up with limited control over what application is doing what. There should be a way to disable data connection, like disabling wifi.
And ultimately there should be a way to manage the permission of the various app. I want to run pong3d but there is no way I'm giving it Contact Access and SMS access and "service that cost you money". Or I want a fair warning "accept/deny" whenever the application tries...
It also happens that people travel (like me) to other countries. And when traveling I use local pre-paid SIM card to avoid roaming fees. I don't need gtalk and MarioSimulator (yeah it does check for update when you launch it) to burn through my credit just because they think they can.
Since we had networking on phone they have been asking you if you wanted to allow the application to connect "Always/Never/Just this time". If Android expect to be used on other devices (so other providers, other countries, other dataplan) that feature will be needed. And the all or nothing attitude towards permissions when installing an app must be changed.
In the mean time, I suggest the original poster do what I do.. Delete all your APN settings and re-add them when needed. In my case just changing one letter in the APN seems to be enough.
my 2p.

I completely understand where you are coming from and I think once the OS comes out of beta it will be a lot better. In the meantime I think it is easier to do the method I did above as it just turns off the data connection and doesn't change any other settings. And you can turn it on or off on the fly.

Don't mean to derail the converstaion but... Google, out of BETA? ROFLOL!!!
That'll be the end of life as we know it!
Anyways... going back to the subject. Your trick is neat and I don't need it (T-mobile customer with unlimited data) but still usefull.
@ mrboyd:
As neoobs stated, you'll have to do that workaround untill Google does add such a feature, but unless you give enough stink (complain) about it, they won't listen.
You could go here to developers and see if anyone is doing something about it and "ask" for such a "feature"
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers
Also, where are you located? Who's your service provider? What data plans do they have there, or don't?

On the same topic... if someone notices they have no data connection and want to enable it follow the same directions. I did this the other night when tmobiles towers were down. It helped me get connected again.

Does this thing works? I have tried playing with it a little bit and it didn't seem to do much. I'll give it another shot.

403 Forbidden Error Driving me CRAZY!

I recently flashed my Tilt/Kaiser/TyTnII to the Hyperdragon 3.. Everything worked great, and life was good. Within the last two weeks something happened and I can no longer access any page in the IE browser. My email and google maps still work, but every page I go to says 403 forbidden, you are not authorized to view this page. I tried calling ATT, but they stepped me through a process and got stuck when they asked me to go to Programs>>Tools>> Proxy manager. The problem being the new rom doesnt have a tools menu under programs... Am I missing something? Also all the posts Ive read say to reset my proxy by following that same link...
PLEASE HELP THE ROOKIE! I need my Internet back!!!
Also, I have seen posts of people getting 2-3 days of charge out of there phones??? What am I doing wrong??? Even before the ROM flash I was lucky to get a day, usually only 1/2 to 3/4... I do receive at least 15 emails (usually closer to 40), send roughly 50 texts a day, and probably talk on it somewhere in the neighborhood of 2-5 hours... I use it ALOT for work... so is my battery life reasonable?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Well, as for the forbidden error, I'm as clueless as you. Did you try a hard reset? However, as for the battery question, I use my Tilt a ton to surf the MEdia Net, and I get about a day out of it. If you are using the device for that much stuff, I would think that your battery life is normal. And I hear if you have Push Email enabled, your battery life will be even worse. Hope that helps you.
Dave

I'm lucky if i get a day out of my tilt. I text heavily, recieve about the same amount of emails, talk about average but surf the web extensively! If you want to save battery life then i'd suggest limiting your push peak and off peak hours under the activesync settings and maybe start disabling 3g/hsdpa when not browsing the web.
as for your problem with PIE. Although other apps are accessing the net fine i'd suggest going to start-settings-connections tab on bottom, then connections icon. Once thats open select the advanced tab on the bottom then select networks. Whats selected in the first drop down box? My ISP or Media Net? Whichever it is (i'm using media net) go through the settings and make sure they're right.
another suggestion would be do get the removehiddenproxy.cab and restorehiddenproxy.cab Search for them on this forum. First try removing the hidden proxy, exit completely out of PIE (go to task manager in settings-systems tab on bottom then task manager to see if its still running in the background) and disconnect your data connection (tap on the E, H, or 3G icon on the top and click on disconnect in the bubble that appears). Then open up PIE and try to load a site.
BTW when the rep told you to go to Programs->tools->Proxy Manager, the proxy manager folder is supposed to have the restorehiddenproxy.cab and removehiddenproxy.cab that i've mentioned.
Hope this helps you and gets you closer to your solution.
update: Here are the links for the restore hidden proxy and remove hidden proxy

i have been having the same problem, usually it self resolves. I currently have two Tilts. on mine, when i encounter this error, i click on the large 3G icon in the upper toolbar and disconnect from the network. then i reconnect by navigating to the website i was trying to get to. this normally works on my device...however, on my wife's this procedure did not work. after 45 minutes with AT&T customer service, it was narrowed down to a bad SIM. I swapped SIMs and the problem occurred on my device with her SIM in place and her device worked fine with my SIM. AT&T suggested i get a new SIM.
Hope this helps

[Q] Problems: Battery, Service Unavailable, No Data Connection. Need Advice

Hello all,
Been a reader for a long time, but not much of a contributor. This community helped me put Cyanogen 4 on my original G1. But this is about my Nexus One which I've had since orders were announced on the live feed! Rooted it at 2.2.1 and then a couple months later updated to over the air 2.3.3 when it was available.
Here are my issues:
1. Battery.
Getting progressively worse. Previously used from 8am - 11pm and have 30% left. Now dead about 6pm. Also, battery warns me 15% left and then shuts down about a minute later. To test the dead at 15% issue, I would start charging it, power it on and it says 1%. So it seems like stats or usage data is incorrect.
What, if any, is the best way to refresh the battery? Should I just buy a new battery?
2. Service Unavailable Messages.
I get pretty bad service in my house and have always had service issues, but lately it's been terrible. Can be holding my phone surfing web and cell service goes out. Have to put phone down for service to come back. If it's out more than a few minutes, it won't come back at all. Meaning I go into settings, manually search for operators and select T-Mobile.
Maybe related, but I can only ever use T-Mobile (my service). Trying to register on AT&T gets "Unable to connect" or "SIM card not supported" (forget exact message). Shouldn't I still be able to use AT&T for roaming calls?
Although rare, sometimes I have to reboot my phone to get the service back.
3. Data Connection Issues
Lately. (Notice a trend?) My data service won't connect. Sometimes I'm coming from a wifi spot or coming out of a bad service error and my data never connects. No 3G, no G, no EDGE. I'll even have full bars on service but no data. Have to go into settings, check "Use only 2G Networks," then uncheck to get data back. Again, sometimes have to reboot phone.
With all that said, I was thinking about moving to a new ROM or wiping and starting over, with the hope that a new ROM would fix problems and give me root back, which would be nice.
Problems... And this seems silly, but I would like to keep my game progress in games like Angry Birds, Drag Racing, and Robo Defense. Tank Hero and PewPew2 would be nice, but not end of the world if I lose them.
I purchased Titanium Backup, but that requires root. Seems if I want to flash to get root I lose data, so in a Catch 22 here.
All other data, Google has got me covered for mail, contacts, Google Voice, etc.
Considering CyanogenMod 7, but guide isn't very helpful for my questions.
Step 1, unlock bootloader.
Shouldn't I already be unlocked from my previous root. How do I verify?
Step 2, install ClockWork or Amon Ra.
I apologize, but can't remember if I did this. Again, how to verify?
From here on I can finish things, just need a good tutorial on the games backup/restore process.
One last thing, it's been awhile since I did the root and longer since the G1 flash, but how are the terminal commands handled on Windows 7?
Ok, so I've got a long list of topics and problems here and understand if it might be a bit overwhelming. However, if anyone has answers to just a few things here, even that would be greatly appreciated.
I love my Nexus One and hate to see it in such bad shape. Plus, I really want to tinker with it and get it back to working order, but from my post you can see I'm not sure where to start.
Thank you,
Steve

[Q] Streak 7 WiFi, sync, other issues - n00b questions

I just moved from an iPad WiFi to the DS7 for use in my work. The smaller size of the DS7, FLASH, and the camera sold me. I have read everything I can find (untold hours) here and elsewhere trying to solve my issues, with not a lot of luck. I even called Dell Mobile Support. I did get some help from a nice lady in Texas, but my second call was a waste. Anyway, on to the issues at hand.
1. Dell sync sucks! Life with the ipad was wonderful in this regard as iTunes syncs perfectly with outlook and IE9. I have installed MyPhoneExplorer and it does get the job done,except for IE9 bookmarks. Any help on this? Any other sync app that you use to do this better?
2. DS7 will not recognize adhoc WiFi networks without rooting and installing new files. I use my TP2 with the HTC mobile WiFi router app for wireless on the go. Again, no problems with the iPad or laptop just DS7. Anybody know of a Wmo router app that creates a regular network?
3. FroYo 2.2.2 can't be rooted (see above fix needed). I have read this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084526
If I understand this correctly, this is a way to root 2.2.2? After this is done then can I mod the files to get the adhoc issue fixed?
I would rather change the router app on my phone while the DS7 is still in warranty. I have only had it a week, but I would really like to have WiFi on the go. The lady at Dell told me that these problems were Google mandates for the OS. I guess Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are better friends than Michael Dell and Sergie!
Thanks to those of you with the knowledge to make our devices work better for us.
Chris

problems solved, partly
I got brave and rooted the Streak following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084526
No problems, quick and easy. I downloaded the Super Manager app from the market for making changes. After playing around to figure it out (not at all like Windows) I made changes to the wpa_supplicant and can now connect to my phone's wifi! Hint to those new like me: I downloaded the wpa file to my laptop and unzipped it then copied into the dowload folder on the Streak via USB. I tried to download to the Streak and open/copy/paste with no luck. I also changed the phone files mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123249
I renamed them to .old and left them where they were. I now have a cell signal bar with an "x" over it and no power usage in the status.
One issue that I now have under settings/about/status, I get an error message that process com.android.settings has stopped unexpectedly with a "force close" button. Is this a product of Clockworkmod?
I installed Task Killer and it works fine, but I thnk I need a start-up manager to keep apps from starting until I need them. Any suggestions?

I'm running with CWM and I don't get that force close issue, for what it's worth.
Task managers are a mixed bag on FroYo+ devices, but they're generally not needed. I used to use one because I thought that, coming from a Windows world, if an app is under running services it's taking up battery and processor resources. This isn't the case with Android. Try running without your task manager for a while and see if you get better performance and battery life; I certainly did. The only thing I use a TM for now is to kill a bunch of apps prior to running something extremely memory intensive, like Galaxy on Fire 2 or a benchmark test (but this has very little practical value in day to day usage).
You can find a CPU usage monitor instead of a task killer; those are much better. Look for apps that use a lot of processor that you don't want to and uninstall them (products of poor coding). But as for memory management (aka task killers), you're almost always better served just letting Android do its thing.

I found the problem on the status issue. By renaming the phone files it created an issue. I have not tried moving them. Not sure if it really was that important since not much is under the status anyway.
Thanks for the info on the task manager. I installed Super Manger because that was recommended in one of the threads to edit and make changes after root. I installed Advanced Task Killer after much reading as well. I notice that when I kill task the available memory increases a lot. There seems to be too much BS that just starts on its own, thats why I thought a startup manager would help. Again, I am windows oriented I suppose.

[Q] Native tether connects, but no data

I'm having connectivity issues with the wifi hot spot. I have a Moto X Developer Edition on Verizon with a grandfathered unlimited plan. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. I ran the commands in this thread to load a new entitlement check apk, and everything looks like it's working. "Checking subscription status..." pops up briefly on load and then goes away. An access point is created and I can successfully connect to it with another device (Nexus 7). So far, everything looks exactly as it should.
The problem is there is no data. I can access data from the phone itself just fine, so I have a cellular data connection. If I disconnect the Nexus 7 and connect to the local wifi network, it gets data just fine, so the device itself is fine. When I try to hit any web page while connected to the Moto X's hotspot, I get the standard "This web page is not available." Trying to ping something from a terminal loses all packets.
It's acting as if the networks aren't bridged/routed properly on the phone. How do I go about troubleshooting this? Are there log files somewhere I can look at?
edit: I should also note that android-wifi-tether, which I used on my rooted HTC Thunderbolt previously, acts like it works fine, but there is no wifi access point broadcast/visible. I have no idea if the problems are related.

I have had a similar problem on my unrooted Moto X. Could use the tether and connect however no data could be transmitted and no web pages could be loaded.
To solve it all I did was go to settings and retype in my APN. I am on Koodo mobile with an unlocked Rogers Moto X so this solution might not work with you but it's just something I thought I could suggest. Hopefully this works! Best of luck.
Sent from my XT1058 using xda app-developers app

Unfortunately, it doesn't do anything for me. Did you have data on the phone directly before that? I thought the APN would affect all data, not just tethering.

On my VZW X Dev Ed, I have been successful using used the wifi_tether_v3_4-experimental1.apk from https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
change device profile to galaxy nexus (cdma/lte)
check box: wifi-driver reload
check box: enabled routing fix
and it works fine. Sometimes its a little slower (like 20-30 seconds) to hit "start" until my laptop or ipad will see the hot spot, but it always works.

Strange. I had tried that version of that app before, following some youtube video, same settings as you listed, but setting the device profile to generic ICS/JB (wlan0) and I could never see an access point created. Now when I go back and do it, the access point pops up fine. I can connect and get data.
It's a little quirky/buggy in that the AP name is always "wlan0" and changing the SSID doesn't change that. Also, I enabled encryption in the settings, but the connection remains open and unencrypted. That may just be part of the beta nature of the version of the apk. I used the non-beta release version in the Play Store on my HTC Thunderbolt and all that worked fine.
So it's functional if not ideal. I'll keep poking at it and will see if I can make sense out of the behavior I'm seeing. I'll post back if I learn anything.

The version apk and settings I listed allow me to change the ssid and use encryption. In fact using that got it working on my X like it did on my thunderbolt.

Something didn't turn off properly. Attached is the battery graph while it was plugged into my computer (an admittedly low current charging source). I saw my phone reboot just before I had to leave, cursed it for being too early for random reboots (the TB did a lot of that). Turns out tethering draws significantly more than 500 mA, killed the phone, which turned off, then recharged to 3% and rebooted, and that's what I saw.
Whatever that application does doesn't get logged by the Android battery monitor, as it was definitely the primary drain, but doesn't show up in battery settings. I don't think it did on my TB, either. It also didn't log data usage on the TB (haven't used enough on the X to tell yet). Seems like that application lives in a pocket outside what Android itself is set up to log. Is that a factor of most root applications?

I don't see that problem. When I use it, I just get regular draw as if I'm viewing a movie on my phone via Netflix. Stopping and exiting the wifi tether app does seem to exit it and end battery draw.
I'm using stock 4.4 on my VZW Dev X. I rooted via unlocking the booloader, installing TWRP, booting to TWRP and installing/flashing SuperSU.
Other option is grab the APK in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449534&page=2 and use it. And actually, that thread has you also check wifi-driver reload 2.
