Wifi mixed with mobile data

I just bought my galaxy s4 yesterday and once i got home i connected it to my wifi and now in the status bar the wifi signal and the the mobile data icon appear together is it normal? Is it using data and not the wifi?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's normal, becaue you still have mobile data access. Wifi has priority over Mobile Data, though, so even if both icons are showing, you should still be pulling through Wifi. I believe, when you are pulling data through Mobile, the mobile data icon will flash/colorize/animate in some way, as well. On my S3, it has up and down arrows that turn orange/green when data is coming through, but stays grey otherwise.

Calls with mobile data

Hello.
I can't make calls with mobile data, on mobile skype to other phone numbers, I can only make with wifi connect, does somebody knows who to make calls with mobile data?
Thanks

You should be able to make calls with mobile data, unless your carrier's network is poorly configured and/or they are explicitly blocking skype. Audio quality can be quite shoddy on the slowest networks such as EDGE/GPRS though.

Cannot send regular text to someone with Mobile data off... or send sms most of the time at all

I am having a lot of trouble sending text messages. I get them fine but cannot reply to them. It just sits there pretending to send randomly. If I have my mobile data off it won't ever send texts even using the stock Messages app with the default group text mode disabled. Anyone know why I cannot send text messages without my mobile data enabled?? I feel this might be the root of my texting issues. Note these are plain LOL and simple texts with no attachments. Even with full bars of 4g no luck half the time sending with mobile data enabled...
This started with the Kit Kat update.

Nope, no signature or attachment. Went into a Verizon Store on Saturday and they called in the issue but only were able to get it to send a text with full 4G bars after powering the phone off for two minutes then powering it back on and resending.

SAP WMS with Mobile Data Entry Unit

Hi,
I understand that the transaction codes for WMS transactions using mobile data entry unit are different from the conventional way. I wonder how I can know the standard transactions and transaction codes provided by SAP for mobile data entry unit.
Ideas?
Thanks.

Can I use gps applications like tomtom at the ipad mini with mobile data transfer turned off?

Need help about ipad mini.
The information on the apple web page refers that only the 3G versions have gps capabilities.
Wath is not clear to me is if the gps works only when coneted with 3G data transfer, or it works without it, if I download some software like tomtom or navigon.
Best regards
Pedro

You can use it without being connected to 3G. Only the 3G/4G iPads have a built-in GPS chip, the wifi-only models don't, and you can use apps such as TomTom with it which contain the maps, you don't need to be connected to 3G (or even have activated 3G on the iPad) or wifi to then use it.

After the latest 7.0.3 update, on an iPhone 4, if both wifi and mobile data are on, Safari launches but freezes. It's ok with just wifi or just mobile data turned on but not with both on at the same time!

Any one else having this problem?

Mobile Data is disabled notification - 32GB WiFi Version - after 5.1.1 update

So I just recieved and installed the OTA update for 5.1.1 on my 32Gb Wifi Z3 compact. Now I have a constant notification on the status bar advising that Mobile Data is disabled. If I click it it takes me to the WiFi Data Usage page - as this is the WiFi only version Mobile Data should not be an option and as such I get no options to control Mobile Data. Any suggestions - or Sony Software Devs if you are reading this please address this issue for the WiFi only versions of the Z3 Compact Tablet. Sorry - Accidentally posted in wrong section - MODS please can you move or remove this post

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Mobile Data Disabled - 32Gb WiFi Version - 5.1.1 Update

This issue has been addressed and reported earlier. Unfortunately I don't have any further information.

Ellipsis 7 tablet - drops wi-fi and goes to mobile data w/o telling you, and for no reason?

I don't totally hate my Ellipsis 7 tablet. It does have a nice, bright screen, and it does have a fairly fast processor.
This is where the compliments stop.
1.) It's glitchy. As others have stated, icons do seem to disappear.
2.) It seems to "lose communication" with my high-end Sandisk micro-sd card (that has no other problems when used in my smartphone.)
3.) The battery life could be a lot better - you will charge it every day, even with minimal use.
but my biggest problem with this tablet (which I got from my local Verizon store) is it's "sneaky behavior" with mobile data. I am nearly convinced that these devices are designed, intentionally, to use up your mobile data whenever possible, even when solid wi-fi is available.
Have any of you Verizon Ellipsis 7 users, that use these primarily at home with wi-fi available, noticed a rather large increase in the mobile data being used?
This is sort of long, so I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read this...
Here's my scenario; which I can duplicate.
I live in a place with 2 strong wi-fi networks available. The tablet accesses both of them with no problem. Speed tests show 10Mbps download and 0.768 Mbps upload, the speed we pay for.
One night, I get the text messages from Verizon that I'm close to using all my mobile data. (which I appreciate) But I'd been getting so many texts, emails, etc., that day I didn't look to see what the alert was. My bad! So, I'd gone over and approved $10 to upgrade with one more GB of data. I figured it was a fluke; that somehow I had turned off my wi-fi, or it had gone down, or somehow something happened that made the tablet switch over to mobile data.
...but I was watching more closely now...
less than 24 hours later, I'm getting those messages again! I'd used one GB in less than 24 hours??? So I called Verizon, and we went through the normal putting limits on the device, etc., so it couldn't happen again.
So then, I asked him the simple question? When not 1, but 2, strong wi-fi signals are available, why would this device switch over to mobile data, WITHOUT letting you know???
He couldn't answer that. He transferred me to someone else that was "higher" in techincal support. She was a sweet girl, and really wanted to help me, but she never understood my problem. At one point I said to her, "Look, it's simple. These devices always default to wi-fi if available. What would make them disconnect from wi-fi and go to mobile data instead?" Her answer was that she needed to look up if a tablet was supposed to connect to wi-fi first... uh, OK.
At the end of a very frustrating call, she offered to send me a box to ship it back to Verizon in. They would then decide to repair or replace it. I would be without a tablet for a minimum of two weeks. I said Thanks but No Thanks, I would just disable mobile data entirely. The lady I spoke with did not seem pleased with my decision, but what could she do? And we ended the call.
So, I'm still trying to figure out what is making this thing kick over to mobile data (remember I just shut mobile data off entirely before I hung up with Verizon) and I was currently connected to an external bluetooth speaker (which shouldn't have anything to do with anything, I realize), when I started a video on YouTube.
Now, mind you, I was ALREADY showing connected to a strong wi-fi network.
And up comes a dialog popup, asking me to turn the wi-fi back on, even though I would incur additional charges!
BUSTED, VERIZON!
This message doesn't come up when it tries to switch over from wi-fi to mobile data unless you have completely shut off mobile data.
I only mention that I was connected to an external bluetooth speaker because it is the only way (SO FAR) that I have been able to duplicate this "silent switchover" repeatedly.
If I'm on Youtube first, not connected to my bluetooth external speaker, the device will stay on my wi-fi network when I pause the video, connect to the bluetooth speaker, and then restart the video.
If I'm already connected to the external bluetooth speaker, and then open a browser window or youtube video, the device will attempt to change its connection from wi-fi to mobile data. There is no reason for this!
Yes, yes... I realize that being connected to an external bluetooth device should have absolutely nothing to do with whether the tablet should keep its wi-fi connection or switch to mobile data...
except that it does! And there may be other circumstances that I haven't found yet... I don't know, but I'm watching!
At the end of the day, ANY DEVICE THAT IS GOING TO SWITCH FROM A WI-FI NETWORK TO MOBILE DATA, FOR ANY REASON, SHOULD TELL YOU IT'S GOING TO SWITCH, AND LET YOU DECIDE TO ALLOW THAT CHANGE OR NOT, especially when there is NO REASON for the device to switch in the first place. In the same household are my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and husband's Galaxy S5. They never exhibit this behavior, and yes, we use internet on our phones at home rather frequently.
Watch your mobile data folks...
Oh, and the Verizon lady called back about 30 minutes later... asking me again to agree to send my tablet in. I explained to her that I could now duplicate the problem. I told her that it would be easy enough for them to check and see if all devices are doing it (which I'm guessing they all do! there's not enough memory to download any apps, so I doubt it's that...) I said that with the millions of Ellipsis 7 devices they have, someone in tech support can grab one and try it. Still no luck, and she still wanted me to send it back and be without a tablet for 2 weeks or more. I declined.
Anyway, if you've read this far, I thank you! I would like opinions as to whether you think this should be happening or not, and whether you have had this happen to you or not with this tablet. Thank you for your time!

Hello this is happening to us also (minus the Bluetooth speaker). We can't figure out what is causing the data usage. I turned off mobile data as soon s I activated the device, and got the message that unless I am connected to WiFi.....(that is exactly what I wanted). We watched Netflix for about three hours, then the alerts started. Like you we have many devices connected and never used over 2GB now all of a sudden we have used it in a matter of hours. My husband called Verizon and got the usual doubting Thomas response. I understand that they don't know my device settings. So over the phone we check all the settings and turned off every possible culprit eating up the data and end the call. By now I have purchased another gig for the month! Assured we are NOT using mobile data, we continue on the IE path to bliss. HA! A few hours later I check the mobile data usage on the Verizon website and that darn thing is still using data. After two more phone calls and two VERY uneventful trips to the local store we were told to take out the sim card. This has stopped the data usage, but it defeats the purpose of having the data plan. I could have just stuck with my Surface. Verizon sent us a new sim card. Its been installed and I have set my homepage to Verizon mobile data usage (just kidding) but I am on that site a lot. I am surprised at the number of complaints about this device. When we called the Verizon support acted as though this was the first time they had heard about this. Loved your post, you should write for a living.

Cellular Data option replaced by Mobile Data

I've had a bit of strangeness with my iPad and iTunes recently - full story here if anyone is interested anyway as part of this I restored my iPad to factory settings, however I've noticed now that in Settings 'Cellular Data' has now been replaced with 'Mobile Data'.
Now even more strange is that prior to this strangeness with my iPad and iTunes I'd updated my software to the latest version of iOS; 6.1.2 and had created a backup, now when I initially reset my iPad and deleted everything this was when I first noticed the wording had changed - however when I restored my iPad from an iCloud backup - not forgetting of course this was also done when iOS 6.1.2 was present on my iPad it changed the wording back to Cellular Data. So I'm currently wondering what the 'correct' wording should actually be? Is it Cellular Data or Mobile Data?
Realise from the iPad User Guide, Cellular Data appears to be the correct wording, but perhaps this is out of date? Odd though wouldn't you agree?
Regards,
Steve

It depends on your Language choice.
For regular (I guess American) English the correct wording is Cellular Data, if you choose British English, then it becomes Mobile Data.
So make sure that you did not change your default language in between backups.

WIFI and mobile data connections not connecting with any other outside WIFI networks. Bluetooth not working in car. Any solution?

After installed iOS7 I am facing the following two problems:
1. WIFI as well as mobile data connection are working fine at my home. But, not connecting with any other outside WIFI networks. Error message is 'unable to join network'. Mobile data also not connected outside my home. Sometimes wifi and mobile data connect outside my home when I turn off and on the phone.
2. Bluetooth, in my car, paires well and incoming and out going calls can be received and made. The problem is no sound out put from speakers.
Apple please make note of the above problems (of million people) and give solution before giving any other updations for painting and tinkering the screens.

Check this thread, the same solution might work for you:

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to turn the services you want to sync (calendars, contacts etc) on on both devices from settings > iCloud.

Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically use wifi internet when wifi is available. It has been draining my mobile data. I can only manually change settings with cellular data everytime I get home. Any other solutions?

Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically divert to my wi-fi internet when wifi is available in my home. It has been draining my mobile data I now have very high bills from my mobile carrier for high data usage. I can only manually change settings in the Network and turn cellular data on and off everytime I get home and leave the home. This is very frustrating as it wasn't a problem until the upgrade. I have spoken to a few people that this has happened to. Has anyone found this problem and does anyone have other solutions?

Please disregard this question. I'll submit a shorter and more direct question. Thanks.
