Mobile Internet Toggle Widget?

wilmer mclean

I have a htc wildfire and have just changed from the sence ui to go launcher. I much prefer the new launcher bar one thing I can't find a 3G on off widget like I used to have with sence. I have found widgets that act as shortcuts into settings but I want one that just toggles the Internet on and off while I'm out and about. Does anybody know of a widget or app on the Market that can do this?

APN OnOff widget. Works well on the Galaxy S anyway...

I'm probably doing something wrong but apn isn't working for me. It is though the exact type of widget I'm looking for. I don't know what happening with it but when I press on the widget doesn't turn on my 3G? In my settings I normally turn it on by ticking a box next mobile networks?

Before you install the widget make sure your data connection is on.
Turn on your data the way you used to. Uninstall APN on/off. Reinstall it then making sure your data connection is turned on

Ha thanks that works perfect now. I literally tried 10 different widgets yesterday including apn couldn't figure out why none of them were working thought I was going insane. Thanks for the help anyway it was starting to really anoy me.

Extended controls will do the same thing, but also provide a large choice of other toggles you can included on the widget.

Thanks for the replies. Also does anyone know of any 3g toggles that can be put in the notification bar? Have one for wi fi and I find it very handy.

Try Elixir. It's free. Has loads and loads of options

You'll be able to get rid of APN on/off too when you install Elixir. That APN on/off widget is a bit big for my liking

I had installed go launcher over the weekend and found this app - a simple toggle switch for mobile data on or off.

Data Switch

That doesn't work on Gingerbread, according to that page.

I use Dazzle Configurable switcher and a 99% sure it has a mobile date on\off. Am rooted and know on a HTS Sensation that it would not work.
