Yesterday I finally updated to Android 4.4.2.
Ever since, the 4G icon is present most of the time, even though the mobile data is disabled (confirmed in the settings menu).
Does it mean that the mobile data is still in use, or is it just a glitch with the display?

If mobile data is disabled, its definitely a glitch

Hi all, thanks a lot to read the thread and try to help.
The thing is that even I haven't install anything nor updating any room, I have a real problem lately.
If I use WiFi my HTC works fine, but when I disconnect WiFi, even a data logo appears (H or 3G) nothing that uses data works.
I cannot use Whatsapp, Facebook even open Google on a new tab.
The arrows keep moving on my status bar, but I downloaded a data monitor and says that nothing is moving in data usage.
What can I do before I lose WiFi?
I have restored the mobile phone, a complete wipe, i'll write you soon.
Call your operator because it seems to be
A: a provider sided problem
B: a signal problem
C: hardware/software problem
If c: try to get a replacement.

Same problem, except it is intermittent. Have always had LTE service in my apartment until a couple of weeks ago. Sometimes the mobile data works, sometimes it doesn't. Full bars, shows data icon, but can NEVER download MMS, even when mobile data is working.
Any help other than call the provider?
Viper One 6.2.1
latest firmware i could find
So my wife's motox decided to stop connecting to my home wifi/cable modem. My phone (LG G2) as well as all laptops/tablets connect fine. My G2 can see about 8 nearby networks, the MotoX always sees my neighbors network and occasionally a 2nd or 3rd but that's about it. If my home network finally shows up I enter the password and it immediately switches to "Out of range" and shows as a Saved network. I enabled the hotspot on my phone and the MotoX still didn't show the hotspot. Here are the things I've tried so far:
- Forget network and readd it if/when it finally shows up as a visible network.
- Cleared cache from recovery
- Rebooted
- Toggling airplane mode
- Disable just data
- Power cycled cable modem. Also Hard reset it and set the network back up.
- Disable wifi optimization, notify when open network is available, as well as the always allow scanning.
- Switched from auto to 2.4 Ghz only.
- Switched between multiple channels on router.
The MotoX is the Canadian version, 4.4.2 stock, unrooted. Router is an awesome Hitron piece of crap but it's been working perfectly fine for months.
Short of doing a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

You have already tried everything that I would suggest, short of a factory reset. If you do factory reset, please let us know if it resolves your issue. Since you are not rooted, I'm confused as to how this could happen :/
Good Luck
I am assuming you have already unchecked the "avoid poor connections" option too in the wifi settings.

It was already unchecked so I didn't touch it.
Some routers can't handle certain number of conectinons, try rebooting your router
The router is built in with the cable modem which I've already rebooted as well as reset completely. Also with the phone only able to see a couple of networks at a time when there should be 8 - 10 visible at any time I think the phone is the problem. I just can't figure out what happened.

A few users have randomly had issues with WiFi, and their issues were only resolved by flashing the entire stock SBF as per the "Return to Stock" thread.
If a factory reset does not resolve your issue, you may consider SBFing back to stock. Since you will be flashing the stock rom (with matching CID), this is possible even with a locked bootloader.
Good Luck
I saw some posts about the SBF thing but wasn't sure if that applied to an unrooted / locked device or not. Thanks for the info.

An update for anyone looking for one. Her phone stated working fine yesterday on its own. It picked up and connected to our home network on its own and it can see all of the nearby networks like mine does.
Neither of us have done anything to it yet. Haven't touched the router or her phone since I first posted the problem.
Sorry I don't have an actual solution for you.

Ok so wifi decided to crap out again. This time I did a full wipe (internal storage included) and now wifi doesn't even turn on. It flips to ON for half a second then immediately back to off. Bluetooth does the same thing. I've called my provider (Rogers) and they're sending me another one.
Considering the wifi and bluetooth are on the same chip I guess the whole chip is toast or loose or something. Either way its well beyond a software fix.

You did a full wipe, but did you actually SBF back to stock? As I had commented previously, ONLY a full SBF back to stock can repair a corrupted filesystem. A "Full wipe" just erases cache and userdata.
SBFing actually REPLACES all the partitions. If you haven't tried, you can't say for certain that it is well beyond a software fix. It could have simply been a corrupt file...
Good Luck
If it was my phone I would have tried a SBF but considering it's my wife's she's a big more hesitant to let me and if they're sending us a new one, why bother?
Hi,
I'm having a problem with my XT1097.
I leave the mobile data network connection disabled most of the time (I use Wi-Fi most of thye time). Despite that, the fone company (TIM-Brasil) reports that my data connection is active and using data.
Yesterday, even considering that I didn't enable the data connection at all, I received a message reporting that I had used the full data cap for the day (a pre-paid plan with 10MB data cap per day. Small, but usually enough for what I need).
Checking the history of my plan, I found that the Moto X started doing that from day 1 when I bought it. My previous fone, a Galaxy Note (GT-N7000), didn't do that. At the time my Moto X ran Kitkat unmodified and later I rooted it. This continued behavior continued with Lollipop 5.0 (unrooted). This week I updated to 5.1 (also not rooted) and the problem persists.
I contacted the phone provider (Tim-Brasil) to reset the mobile data config, but the problem persists.
Has any one seen anything like this?
Thanks,
DrydenK

21,6MB used since 17/June. A lot less than indicated by the phone company. At Tim's site, it says 2MB just today. And as I said, it reached 10MB yesterday, where no data usage was shown at all by Moto X.

Is it possible that some app is turning the data connection on and then shutting it down again? If so, how do I find out which one is doing that?
Try turning off data AND restrict background data, see if that helps.

Ok. I've enabled this restriction. Another thing I tried is changing Location from "High accuracy" to "Device only", since possibly this could also register as data usage.
Thanks.

Ok. With both changes active, the Tim site indicated that there is no more internet traffic, and it stopped shortly before I disabled the high precision GPS. To make sure that this is what was generating the traffic, I will remove the data restriction and leave only the limited GPS in place. In 24 hours I will be able to verify if the GPS was indeed the culprit (the billing page in Tim Brazil site does only update after midnight).

I checked in the data usage at TIM, and with the GPS High Precision disabled no data is being charged any more. So I consider this matter closed.
So, as a reminder: WATCH OUT FOR THE GPS SETTINGS. YOU FONE COMPANY MAY CHARGE YOUR GPS DATA AS INTERNET DATA USAGE IF YOU USE 'HIGH PRECISION GPS!'
Thank you AGISCI for your tips.

HI guys, so i have this G4-H811 that is running the official t-mobile Android 6.0 2016-06-01 build. The problem is that after every few minutes the phone automatically turns on the data. Im being charged again and again for this. In 5.0 this was caused by an app called come.tmobile.pr.adapt. After updating to 6.0 this app no longer exists but still the problem persists. I have manually checked all apps in the App section in settings all of them say No Data Used under Data. As far as i can tell all apps are using Wifi. I have unchecked Switch to mobile data under Advanced Wifi Settings. But still after every few minutes my carrier tells me that the device connects to the LTE service. This is burning through my plan so any of u have any suggestions?
