Every time I turn off my mobile data connection via the toggles or in the settings menu it comes back on after the phone comes out of sleep. I have tried the keep WIFI on during sleep setting, but no luck. Never had a phone where I could not disable the data connection...
Hopefully I am just over looking something. any ideas?
bump. Anyone?

I recently traveled out of country and turned off my Data connection + Phone in my wireless controls during the duration of my trip (2 weeks). Now that I'm back, I can turn everything in my wireless controls back on EXCEPT my Data Connection. Every time I click it to turn it on, it takes me to a different screen for connections, asking me to "Add a new Modem connection", "Set up my proxy server", " Manage existing connections", and so on. Shouldn't my data just turn back on?
I have downloaded BsB tweaks but its settings have always been the same. I've turned on and off my Data connection multiple times before but not for this long of a period. It would usually just turn on and I can use my 3G but now it's not simply turning on. please help?
Nvm, I just turned it back on. For some reason it takes a few trys to turn it back on
Hey all,
I have a very odd problem that is actually apparent in the HTC Desire forums by 2 other people. (found using the search that comes up when starting a new thread)
When I use my phone on WiFi the data is automatically turned off (I'm assuming because WiFi takes priority, however when WiFi drops, the data does not reconnect and I am left with just the reception bars for SMS/Calling.
To fix this I must either cycle aeroplane mode or go to Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > Vodafone Internet and then when I'm in the editing screen for that APN the data reconnects.
I have tried making a shortcut directly to the APN settings using LauncherPro activities shortcut but the data will only reconnect if I take the long way (or cycle aeroplane mode as it is a quicker fix)
Please help, this is very annoying as my data doesn't reconnect when I leave my home WiFi in the mornings until I notice it half way through the day.. missing many important emails
Thanks in advance.

u could use a widget to toggle the APN (extenedcontrols)
but i had the same problem on my old Desire from Telstra until it was updated to Froyo and then i never had the problem again.
What firmware version are you running? Also are you running Gingerblur, gladatrix or stock?
1.57 with gingerblur. Thanks for the tip about toggling the apn I will try that soon

After updating (OTA) to 4.1.2 mobile data connections started to drop a lot.
Basically it works fine after a reset and most times after switching airplane mode on and off.
When keeping data connection active, there is no problem either.
However, after some idle time the connection is switched off doesnt get on again.
Even if I turn off/on the mobile data connection option.
Most of the time I would have to reset the phone.
This was fine before the update. (4.1.1)
Is anyone experiencing anything like this?
My wife has a stock G3 and for months we've exceeded our data allocation because her phone will automatically and seemingly randomly switch to mobile data even though WiFi is turned on and she's home. Turning off WiFi and back on again will show that our home WiFi network is saved, but won't connect. Turning on airplane mode and back off again will get the WiFi to reconnect, but that's not something my wife will remember to check and these data overages are getting ridiculous. Is this a known bug, or should we try to get a replacement device?

Maybe check your apps? Some apps ask for permission to turn on and off Wi-Fi to save battery or when your phone percentage goes down to a certain level. Of not that, then get a replacement. This doesn't happen to me

Did she accidentally save any other networks nearby or have you connected to them? I had a low signal WiFi saved at my house. I had to forget the network because it kept trying to switch networks, then dropping completely. When I only had the primary network saved, it suddenly was a strong and stable connection.
I noticed with other devices that they will drop connection when searching for networks and there are too many nearby open networks too.
Whenever I leave home, and the phone disconnects from WiFi, it fails to establish a data connection, and requires a restart of the phone.
I have tried toggling the data connection and airplane mode in the hopes of resetting the connection but it fails every time. I have also turned on the aggressive transfer in developer options, but this hasn't helped either.
Any ideas?
Same here when I switched to "Prefer 3G" in settings. When switched to "Prefer LTE" everything is back to normal.
