Differences between APN toggle and "Use packet data"

Hi All,
I've noticed that I experience far less battery drain by unticking "Use packet data" than I do using an APN toggle app.
Could someone explain the differences between the two, and what the APN apps leave switched on that other option does not?
Also, does anyone know of an app that unticks the "Use packet data" option?
Many thanks,
Andy

Quick update: The Extended Power Menu option "Data network mode" does toggle the "Use packet data" option.
So could this be a driver that is being disabled in the Kernel itself, rather than a service (or driver) in the OS?

Possibly a useful answer is here.

Great stuff, thanks for clearing that up for me

uninor internet not work.

I buy uninor sim & try to use internet.I have save configuration setting massage.But their no internet logo.Anyone help me?

Check whether you enabled, Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Data Enabled (Check)
There should be an "E" icon on the status bar after that.

try everything for internet.

[Q] Quick question in regard to default settings

I just have a quick question b/c I'm not sure if I changed the default wifi settings on my HTC One. When you go to settings --> wifi --> menu --> advanced is "Best wifi Performance" checked or unchecked? Thanks in advance.

Is unchecked for default

Force 5GHz wifi? (9.7)

Hey everyone - just want to check if people have noticed this and/or have a workaround for it.
I'd like to set my device to connect only to 5GHz networks. On other devices, I'd do this by Settings -> Wifi -> (menu) -> Advanced and toggle the Wifi Frequency option there. As far as I can see, the Advanced option isn't available on the Wifi menu screen.
1) Is the advanced settings screen missing for everyone else?
2) Is there another way to access this screen?
3) Is there another way to toggle the relevant setting?
Thanks for your help.

Question WIFI connection problem in some apps(70MAI, Philips WIZ) + MIUI 14(xiaomi.eu).

I have problem with Xiaomi 12 PRO Dimensity, MIUI 14.0.4.0.TLGCNXM , and 70MAI app + Dashcam PRO.
The app 70mai keeps saying that i need to connect to the wifi of the dashcam, but i am!
I have same error on WiFi(connect to wifi network) is with Philips WIZ app when connect new device....(but phone is connected to WiFi).
Permission for that apps is granted - full, from Setting.
The phone was reset to default settings, twice....
Maybe someone have the solution....
With MI 11 global version + MIUI 13, the 70MAI and Philips WIZ is working, all it's ok.

me too. cant connect 70mai dashcam . miui 14 ANDROID 13

For me the solution was:
1) Settings -> Privacy protection -> Protection tab -> Privacy protection lab -> enable "Approximate location".
2) Long-tap app icon -> App info -> Permissions -> Get location info -> tap "Approximate location is on" to turn it off
Thanks to community Xiaomi for help.

Had the same problem on POCO X3 miui 14. Solved it using the same settings (no idea how anyone could have come with a solution which seems to be totally unrelated to the subject ).
Am joining the thanks!

I'm on latest stable but I don't have Approximate location in privacy tab, could be a different SecurityCenter app version?
