Motorola Charm :: Block Mobile Service Provider Data And ONLY Use WiFi?
Sep 29, 2011
I am on the eve of receiving my new un-locked Motorola Charm MB502 phone. I have AT&T as the provided but I know even though it is a T-Mobile phone it works on the AT&T network.However I do not have, nor do I want to pay for a data plan. In fact as of now I have a Sony Ericsson C905a from AT&T just for the reason of not having to have a data plan; I don't need it or want to pay the $$. But I am interested in the wi-fi features of the Charm.I started looking into the Charm's user guide and I want to know if anyone can tell me if it is possible and how to set up the phone so it ONLY uses wi-fi to connect to data? Can I block mobile data usage through configuration? I don't want 2 things to happen:Paying for a lot of pay-as-you-use data MB.having AT&T see so many data packets and automatically slap a data plan on my phone.

I'm using Curve 8520. My issue is, my original service provider is Maxis, Malaysia. Now, i'm currently in Ukraine and temporarily i'm using ukraine service provider, Beeline. But it seems like my edge symbol at top right is in lower case and i unable to use my data application at all. I try to put APN setting (internet.beeline.ua) at the TCP but still not working. Is there any conflict if i temporarily change service provider?

I have nokia 5800. I am able to connect to my office wi-fi with this. And after connecting when I do Start Browsing, I am also able to browse sites successfully. But when I go to home screen -> menu -> internet -> facebook, and try to open it. It shows me "Connecting through AirTel" even though my wi-fi is still connected, this facebook is trying to connect to internet with my service provider internet. Can anybody please tell me how can I educate facebook application to use my wi-fi internet connection and not the service provider one?

I just bought a Charm with Motoblur, and the phone works great. The only problem is that I can't use my calendar because it requires me to sync to gmail (or whatever) to use it, to sync a calendar from the internet or something. However, I do not have wifi connection on my phone, and do not wish to get it. I just want to use my calendar without having to connect to the internet in any way. Is there some way around this synchronization? Is there something I can download and move to my phone so I don't have to sync with anything via wifi?

I am using the blackberry service using a GSM service provider, I would like to switch to a new GSM service provider. When I switch the SIM card the handset ask for blackberry ID and password, on entering the details it says invalid Blackberry ID. Can I just use another BB handset and use the new SIM to route all my emails and BB messenger to the new handset.

When I try to access web sites from the Blackberry browser I get the "Unable to connect to the selected mobile data service. Please try again later" message. This happens whether connected through the T-Mobile network or Wi-fi.When I change the browser settings to the T-Mobile browser I am able to access web site just fine. However I would prefer to use the Blackberry browser because not all pages load correctly with the T-Mobile browser.
I have an active data plan and am connected to an enterprise server. My outlook and webmail e-mails work so I don't think it's a problem with my carrier. I've tried a battery pull, re-sending my service books, etc without luck.I think the problem may have started after connecting to my desktop for the first time in about a year, but I'm not completely certain. T-Mobile support and IT administrator have been no help.

I'm just starting to have this issue as when my wifi is turned off I have no data service however I can only make and receive calls. I notice the signal for my reception bar is full however I it doesn't say 4g or anything at all next to it. I restarted the phone, drove to different locations same issue. I think this started from yesterday. I also checked my mobile data setting, seems to be set correctly and it's on. Attach is a photo of signal and no data works.

The instant my browser starts to load a page my phone switches from wifi to 3G (I see it switch up on the top bar). I don't know how long this has been going on; I learned about it this month after getting wifi in my home and cutting my data plan from 2GB to 200MB--and going over ther limit.My wifi signal ranges from -39 to -67 dBM, which is in the full to three-quarter range on the wifi signal indicator. The service status indicates I'm connected, and wifi diagnostics indicates no issues. If I turn off my mobile network, the browser uses the wifi with no problems. Lastly, my BB app RSS newsreader uses wifi with no problem, and when invoking the browser from within the newsreader, the browser stays on wifi!RIM technical support said this is happening because my phone senses my mobile carrier signal is stronger than wifi, so it uses mobile data instead. In other words, this is a "feature".I don't buy it. Everything I've read says the web browser should use wifi if it's available.

My first smartphone is a Galaxy S5 and I use ATT as my provider.I have had the phone since it came out and for the first few months I was using low data. ATT called me and recommend I downgrade my data plan. I followed their advice and downgraded. Anyway, about three months ago my data usage that counts on my bill went through the roof. I haven't changed anything that I am aware.
I called ATT and they told me that Data usage counting on my bill will always take precedent over WIFI when I am connected to WIFI (like in my house). As an example if I watch a movie or listen to the radio with my smartphone at my house with my WIFI connected, then my data usage used for these services will count on my bill.
Do I automatically have to disable my mobile data everytime I connect to a WIFI in order NOT to be charged? I assumed that WIFI took precedent and that as long as WIFI was connected then the data used wouldn't count on my bill. If this is true, then is there anyway to have my phone automatically disconnect when I am connected to WiFi?

If you had to choose between service providers is any certain one better with the Iphone? Is ATT and Verizon at the top, or is Sprint and other providers good as well?

I am just sitting on my office desk, 2 meters from the router all day. But the phone keeps connecting to mobile data and just takes 5 kb of data for 20 -30 times a day. I fiddled with automatic background data settings, with no success.

My iPhone 4 is at the latest iOS version. Ever since I started using it in December I've found out that at the same time every day(midnight) when connected to wifi it will use a considerable amount of 3G. I only recently found this out last month when I went over my monthly allowance.
I can only surmise that iCloud is somehow using the mobile data connection to backup when I've locked my phone, plugged it into the wall to charge and am asleep.
My wife has the same phone and does the same thing as I do at night but her phone doesn't use any 3G data when backing up.
Having checked my mobile bill for the last few months it is at exactly midnight that the phone starts using 3G data.....every night, without fail!
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1

I don't know if this is the right please to post this question. Sorry for the inconvenience.Yesterday my BlackBerry Storm 2 9550 was stolen. I called to my service provider and reported the incident. The IMEI and PIN was linked to my phone line / account. At this time service is suspended.
However, I have a question: Can the BlackBerry be activated with another service provider? Is it useless after i reported? Can I try to contact RIM and lock IMEI and PIN for any kind of future use? I have all that information.

I want to unlock my phone but I'm not sure that it will work. because when we look at the service menu of phone. It write:
[]Network 0
[]Network subset 0
[x]Service provider 0
[]corporate 0
[]Sim 0
in the sim lock menu. And I already take a NCK code by the operator, but the phone doesn't accept.

I have a new T-Mobile S6 Edge and love the phone, but one thing I have not figured out is why I still get background mobile data usage even though I have disabled mobile data and set "restrict background data". Both tuiService and OS services are downloading approximately 100K at a time periodically over mobile data throughout the day even though I have a wifi connection.
