Going abroad for 1st time with this phone, how do I completely switch off all data?
Every Android phone is different and this is no exception.
Do all I need to do is go into data manager and switch of in there?

You're using an XT910, so there's a dedicated data toggle widget that works just fine. Otherwise, yes, disable both data and data roaming in the Data Manager settings section.

Settings > network > and switch off packet data... that shuts off your data completely

That's not an option under Wireless & networks (on the XT910, at least). Moto moved it to its own 'Data Manager' section instead.

Yeah thats what I thought, thanks for that.
Bizarrly though my phone doesnt have the toggle widget for data, it was 1st place i looked. its got BT, GPS, Flight Mode, Power Control, Wifi but no data one.
Just put the phone in airplane mode.

That's odd. It is grouped separately from the others, labelled 'Mobile Data Toggle' rather than 'Toggle: [something]' like the rest.

Sorry been looking on how to do it for forever, but can't seem to find it. I om on the tethering plan and already used up my 4 gigs of data so I am close to over using my internet data. How do I turn off the internet, without turning off the actual phone service (like texting and calling).
Thanks!!!!

I can not get any 3g signal at all, and there is no 3g signal in the status bar. I have no battery apps, and I have an unlimited data plan. Help?

check your setting in data/battery manager in settings. See if perfomance is checked under battery and in data make sure data saver is off and the checked boxes are first and third boxes
If both are there. Go to privacy ... chose factory reset. This will restore your phone to stock settings. Your apps u download from market will.be gone. Check the top to first. Chances are one is the problem. Also go into dialer and dial *22899 before factory reset and see if that works if other two are not the issue

So on all my other phones I had this option I could toggle. It was a great battery saver also! But it doesn't seem to be on the note? Is there a way to toggle this?
Also any word on missing apps from international ver making it to our phone? Or being ported by a dev?

So that is same thing as enable always on mobile...?
Edit: that just disables data all together...I'm looking for the option enabling always on mobile....what it does is when screen is off for 5 mins it turns ur mobile data off.

Look up 4G toggle on Google Play for quick access to turning mobile data on/off.
Look up Tasker on Google Play to have your phone turn mobile data off when the screen is off.
If not Tasker, you can get GreenPower or JuiceDefender to do it.

I am assuming you can't download using your data plan?
Check your settings and see if you have a data limit checked on. This might stop you from using the data for apps etc . I think try enabling background data too. (Press menu in your data usage page for the options to tick) make sure you don't put a limit and enable mobile data

I would bet that you need to check (and change) your APN settings, if you aren't able to use mobile data properly.
Google for your provider's settings and enter them accordingly.

Calls work, SMS works, but no dice on browser unless using WiFi.
nothing listed under available networks other than Default setup which looks grey
Make sure mobile data is checked.

still nothing
I verified that mobile data is checked - tried turning airplane mode on and off, rebooted several times.
do you have a list of what the proper apn settings are?

I would suggest trying a factory reset. Just make sure that you save any data that you want to keep, like messages, contacts and stuff like that before you try to reset.
Also found this video that might help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNnJnjabXdU
