Turning off Ceeluar data

I am using a 3gs with 3.1.1.
I am trying to ensure all celluar data is turned off, at present 'Data roaming' is turned off as are Location Services and 3g,(no chance of 3g in this area) but going into General> Network there does not appear to be an option there to turn off celluar data.
Any advise of what functions should be turned off to stop all celluar data would be appreciated.

Settings>General>Network should have a Cellular toggle, but if all else fails and you want to make sure you don't use any cellular data, turn Airplane Mode on under Settings.
Thanks for your reply.
Under the Network settings there is only the option to toggle on/off 3gand Data roaming and going further into 'Celluar Data Network' there is no option there either.
Unfortunately airplane mode will not prove viable as the phone is still needed for phone calls/sms.
I am trying to stop daily mystery WAP charges that have been appearing for more than a month. The only time Apps and Mail are used is when connected to the home wi-fi.
Is their any way to reset the Celluar toggle so it is visible?

  • How do you turn off cellular data on Ipad Air 2 with IOS 8.1.2

    We have three new iPad Air 2s within the family. All have wi-fi capability but we are not needing to suscribe to it at this time, plan to use it on trips away from home. All of them get a popup message every 1-2 hours reminding to select a cellular plan. If it were only asking to select a cellular carrier I would understand, but when you do that it requires you to select a plan and add payment info for it. We are not ready to do that at this time. There is no "off" button on the cellular setting as there is on the iPhone. Is there a way to turn off the constant reminders to add a cellular plan?

    There is no option to not sign up for the data plan.  I just returned from the Apple Genius Bar and my genius said the only way to stop the message now is to remove the SIM card, but be sure to keep it in a safe place for when I want to activate Cellular.  The change from the older iPads is that the pre-installed SIM is a generic one that will work with ATT, TMobile and Verizon.  In the past you selected your carrier when you purchased the iPad and their dedicated SIM card was installed.  I really dislike this solution, especially keeping up with the itsy bitsy SIM card and having it readily available when I need it.  I did try a temporary solution mentioned in another thread to tell Siri to turn off Cellular Data.  She will do it, but it resets when you reboot the iPad.  That is preferable to me than removing and keeping up with the SIM card.

  • I have ios 7 and lately when im turning off cellular data for some apps when i leave settings and go back in they have turned on back again by themselves. It appears as if i cant turn off cellular data for the apps i want. Any tips?

    I have ios 7 and lately when i go to settings-cellular and try to turn off cellular data for some apps it doesnt work. As i turn off cellular data for one app immideately after i exit settings and re-enter settings cellular data for that same app goes back on again by itself. That happens for most of my apps and is reqlly annoying. Whats more annoying is that when i am not using wifi even though the settings for cellular data for safari or facebook or some other app are turned on (since i cant turn them off as i mentioned) i get the message that cellular data is turned off for this app and i cant use the internet at all on cellular data. I have reset to factory settings and restored from backup and the problem persists. Is there some help or tips you can offer me?

    Did you get anywhere with this? I'm considering wiping it and setting it up as a new device.

    You could use icloud to sync contacts and calendars.
    Both the ipad and iphone are intended to sync to a computer.
    You can redownload apps from the app store, assuming that they are iphone compatible.

  • I have to turn off mobile data to connect to public wifi!?

    I have found with my phone that to connect to public wifi in places such as my local bar or where I work, that I have to turn off mobile data in settings to connect to the wifi.
    These are wifi hotspots where you have to create a free account to use them, and when you try to connect to them in wifi settings in iOS, when they connect, a little browser screen appears. If mobile data is turned off, then the broswer window will show a welcome screen or message saying connected (dpending on which spot Im connecting to), however if Data isn't turned off, the browser screen just does nothing or I get the apple.com screen with a small text message saying success, then disconnects me from the wifi!
    It wasn't so much an issue before because, in wifi settings for each hotspot I had options for auto-login and auto-join which allowed me not to have to keep reconnecting, however since updating to iOS6, these have changed and its been a nightmare since. This is because these spots tend to kick you off after 20-30mins and then you have to reconnect (which you can understand having to turn off mobile data everytime to do so is annoying).
    Ive noticed that my friends with other iphones, regardless of network, don't have to do this - so why is it an issue for me, or I was wondering if anybody else had the same problem or a fix/solution? And where did the auto-login option from the wifi settings go?

    After much googling for the past few hours, I think I finally found the answer to my problem. Apparently if you have the Onavo app along with the profile it installs, that interferes with connecting to Cisco based wifi hotspots, and the only way around it is the method I used above by turning off mobile data!

    https://getsatisfaction.com/onavo/topics/onavo_prevents_from_being_able_to_conne ct_to_public_wifi_hotspots_that_have_terms_of_use_agreements
    I have uninstalled the app and profile, and will see if that fixes the issue tomorrow when Im at work

  • I am no longer able to turn off cellular data usage for individual apps.  When I turn most of them off, they just automatically reset themselves to allow data usage.  Any thoughts?

    I am definately having the same problem and cannot believe there are no answers or even support that this problem exists.  I never have to post on forumns, I read what is usually readilly availiable for the craziest of problems. 
    Anyways, the problem is just that, I can toggle off a individual app's setting of cellular data availability, but it changes right back on rescreening.  After restarting, resetting etc, it seems that the big Apple Apps are the biggest offenders.  Music is a very important one, Podcasts can kill you very quickly, app store, Photos, Facetime, Stocks?!?!?!
    When one searches for solutions I have to see hundreds of links to "How great is ios7, you can turn off cellular data for individual apps FOR DUMMIES!".  I am a dedicated apple fool since the Apple IIe (long time), but when they run afowl it is usually really bad.  Why offer an on/off switch if the setting is always on?
    I am writing just to add support to the existence of this problem, not so much for people to offer ideas of solutions as I now believe it is in the coding.
    Thank you

    I'm using a 16GB iPhone 4S, with the latest version of iOS 8.1.1.

    Exact same question as ankit1986, specifically with the photos while on cellular-only, and as simple as it sounds, I tried the hard reboot Ingo2711 suggested.  Still experiencing the same error with the native apps reverting to on.  It's killing our shared data-plan (2GB).

  • It's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    it's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    With Airplane Mode you will not receive phone calls.  If you are just worried about Data Charges then just go to Settings>Cellular>Data 'Off'  This may also turn your iMessage off such that all your iMessages even in a WiFi environment go out as Text Messages.  If you still want to use iMessage from Apple device to Apple device in a WiFi network then go to Settings>Messages> and turn it back on after you have set Cellular Data to Off.  Ckuan is correct though about having some per minute received or outgoing call and text charges.  For one example, if you were traveling in Canada but didn't have a Canada Plan you would pay about 89 cents per minute and 50 cents per send / receive Text.

    No need to worry jsanders9! We would be delighted to clarify. Please keep in mind that data usage can be delayed for up to 48 hours. To get the most up to date usage we recommend dialing #DATA send from your VZW device, thanks!

  • I'm using a TravelSIM to make calls home to Australia on my iPhone 4S while I'm overseas. Do I need to change settings, or do anything else, to make sure I don't pay too much?  eg turn off push data - what else?

    I'm using a TravelSIM to make calls and texts home to Australia on my iPhone 4S while I'm overseas. Do I need to change settings, or do anything else, to make sure I don't pay too much? 
    I have advice to turn off push data and don't use Google maps 
    Are there other things I should do so my costs will be kept low?
    thanks for any answers from experienced iPhone using travellers!
    kind regards,   Di

    It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
    Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
    At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...

  • How to turn off cellular data for exchange mail iphone 4 running on ios 7.1.1

    Hello,
    I am new to using iphone 4. I am able to turn off cellular data for most of my apps. But unable to find an option to turn off celullar data for exchange emails.
    Is this possible? please help.
    For now I am using the fetch method instead of push.

    What's not there on the 4S is the ability to specifically disable 3G data. You can disable all cellular data. Turning off 3G did NOT turn off cellular data. It just shut off 3G. You would still be connected to the EDGE data network if present.

  • HP 34401A-When I run the Read Meas.vi, it has error if I do not turn off the data storage

    When I run the Read Meas.vi, it has error if I do not turn off the data storage. The same thing happen when I run the App. Example. vi. Anyone knows how to solve this problem? Thanks alot.

    Hi KL,
    The Read Meas.vi is one of the subvi's in the App. Example.vi, so this problem is most likely the same problem in each case. From the help for Read Meas.vi:
    Data Storage instructs the device to store the data to be sent to either the internal or external buffer. If TRUE (default), the VI stores data in the on mode. If FALSE, the VI does not retain data in the off mode. Use the off mode only with the average min/max operation when you do not need to retrieve data. You cannot configure the meter for external buffering in the off mode.
    So the question is, are you trying to retrieve any data? If so, then as indicated in the above paragraph, you cannot retrieve data and have the data storage turned off. Good luck!
    Logan S.
    Yes, I need to retrieve data. So due to that problem, I cannot really get any data. I am not sure is that problem is due to the USB GPIB or not. But once I click on the click arrow, everying goes fine from initialise, measurment... once it comes to Read measurment, it has error (say somthing like: VISA Wait on Event for RQS.vi->HP34401A Read Meas.vi->Untitled 1) I have no idea like what it shows up.

  • Canon Vixia HF R20 - How do I turn off the date display?

    How do I turn off the date display on my Canon Vixia HF R20? I do not want the date on my videos. I searched the manual and googled it and can't find an answer.

    Hello DaisyKary,
    When shooting with the VIXIA HF R20 you would be able to turn off most of the displays by pressing the [DISP. Batt. Info] button through a cycle.  It will change what is displayed on the camcorder's LCD panel.
    If this is an urgent technical support matter I would urge you to contact Canon technical support directly for further assistance.
