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.
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).
Re: Switch 3G+Data<->2G(no data) with one click
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).
Is there any way I can toggle between 2G/3G networks? Just to save some battery and data usage.
Thanks!
There's 2g-3g onoff widget by curvefish in Google play look there.

Hold down the data toggle in the notification bar. It should get you to data settings menu

Thanks, got it. So in "Network mode", GSM/WCDMA would be 3G if possible, "GSM only" is 2G. :victory:

Yes.
Basically you can long press on any notification toggle item to get to its advanced settings

In Cyanogenmod ROMs it´s possible to create a power toggle that switches between 2G/3G without having to enter the Mobile networks menu (one click switch). Is anything similar possible with the stock ROMs?

There are various apps that create shortcuts to the menu of mobile networks, but I haven't found anything quicker than that.
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,

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).
I'm on Telus in Canada and they have disabled the hotspot quick toggle.
Is there any way to eneble it?
Currently in using app to get mé to the settings where toggle is.
It would be nice to have the toggle back where it belongs. Thx
