Hi I am looking for a 'working' flight mod app or widget. I have used several so far but they are not turning off data. Its annoying at night when all is quiet at home to suddenly get a notification coming in. The little plane icon is usually there but the data is still on. So any thoughts on one that works on our phones with a rooted stock rom or modded rom? thanks
You can turn off "data" Settings in 4.2.2 (Settings > More.. > Mobile Network > untick Mobile data) or you can use the default Power Control widget to toggle data on and off..
if thats what you mean...

I'm using SwitchPro Widget setted up as notification panel toggles and it works fine except the torch.
OMG it does not work, didn't noticed before couse i usually untick wifi, data and sync before to set airplaneode on.
So any other app is working?
Thanks for the replies but the real issue still exists that even though the flight mode is activate in settings i am still getting SMS's and emails coming through and this morning when it was switched off there was no data at all coming through, maybe a reboot will fix a few things but that shouldnt be the case, should it?
I did a search for data switch apps and found one that switches off the data so that may do instead of a flight mode one. thanks again for your replies
Notification Toggle
Give it a go, it works

I put my phone in Airplane mode last night, yet the US Open app woke me during the night (I'm in the UK) alerting me to a score in a tennis match. How is this even possible when the phone is in Airplane mode?
Airplane mode won't disable WiFi.
Turn off Notification in the Notification bar

Are you sure? Shouldn't Airplane mode disable ALL transmitters and receivers?
Also, is there any way to turn off Notification using NFC Task Launcher?
Yes I'm sure.
It'll turn off mobile data but not wifi.
You can test it out yourself, try to browse on wifi when you will have Airplane mode on.
You will be.
As for the 2nd questions, it's possible through tasker I think.
And then you can use that task on NFC task launcher.

I am noticing some problems with my s3 after the official jellybean update. It feels like it has been rushed to the phone. For example it doesn't have the quick reply feature in the notification window. It does for missed calls but not for messages. This is one the most anticipated features for me. Also when watching you tube and you don't want the screen to rotate it now does. I want to lock the rotation so I only get the small video at the top when my phone is on its side. It worked before jellybean update. Also auto brightness has changed. When auto brightness is selected you can manually turn it up with the slider in the notification window and it disables auto brightness and changes to what you set on the slider. Now on jellybean you have to uncheck the auto brightness box and then slide. Little features like this are starting to make me feel like it has been a massive rush to get jellybean on to the s3 which is ironic seen as though it took long enough. I have the international i9300 model s3. Is anybody else noticing the problems I have stated? Does anybody know a way of changing/getting the features? Thanks.
They were definitely to busy with the Note II, I mean come on at least give their flag ship the same/some of the features that a bigger version of the S3 has... That sexy multitasking should have been on the initial jelly bean update.

I know what you mean. The note got great features like the multi window. Apparently that's coming before the new year but I highly doubt that. Are you noticing the same problems I am? Another problem I found is when screen goes off after inactivity you used to be able to press the home button a moment after it goes off and it would turn the screen back on leaving you at the page you was. Now the home button takes you back to the home when you press it. It's annoying you have to go back to the app.

Me too, my problem is the battery with jb lj4
I think there is a few little niggles but overal its pretty much the same.
The autobrightness don't disable automatically now when you adjust the slider as you can now actually adjust the autobrightness brightness, Not sure why though.
Google Now - leaving it active at the mo, but not really found any usefullness from it as yet. The Time home feature is ok, would be good if it actually showed the route I take home - Via motorway, rather than the route through city center which i don't take!!
The new notifcation bar - its ok, nothing major. Expect a bit of all these features will improve over time as well once apps get proper updates. Some work but don't have full functionally - Songpop has no notifications now for example.
Battery Life - I did find that my normal phone use on ISC which included about 50/60 mins worth of calls etc wi-fi left on all the time but only actually connected to wi-fi at home (just 2G & 3G at work) i would have about 55/60% battery life left by the time i got home from work, on Jelly Bean - with the same useage i had about 40/45% left. I am now back to the same as before on ISC, but i didn't disable google now or anything just turned Wi-Fi off when left home and turn it back on when home - results was 55/60% battery remaining a as on ISC. Seems that the Wi-Fi drains when not connected - either it keeps on searching which it might not of done on ISC or its the Google Now doing something (Does say improve location by keeping wifi on - does this even if not connected!!) - Least this way i can still use google now and see how it improves its tags overtime.
I am now using a App called WiFi Timer to automatically switch Wifi on and off when i leave/get home.
Love that it now has voice downloaded so you can text etc with no data connection - find its more accurate now as well!
Never had the small vids on Youtube when rotated phone so not sure about that. Take it disabling autorotate doesn't do this?
Good and Bad
My experience is as follows:
Good:
Sheer speed, no perceivable lag.
A problem I had with only half the SMS notification tone being played (before it cut off) has gone away.
Bad:
Battery drain terrible even when idle. Turning off Google Now, Location Services and Samsung Push Notification fixed this.
When I activate Smart Stay, the screen does not want to turn off 80% of the time - even when I'm not looking at it.
When I wake the phone using the home key, it exits the app I was in. Previously, this would wake the device and return you to the current app (after unlocking). I have a partial work around using the PreHome app; this way the app is still visible underneath the PreHome dialogue box and I just need to press Back to get to my app again.
Widgets, seem to refresh less regularly, particularly Messaging and Gmail widgets which seem to hardly even refresh when I want them too.
Of No Consequence:
The red charging led is a little dimmer when charging.
Overall:
The speed benefits outweigh the niggles - just!

No need for an App. You can do it inbuilt.
Go to Wifi, Menu button and Advanced

Yep i know, but this app is far better as it lets you setup different profiles for mornings, evenings & weekends etc which the inbuilt one don't. :good:
root?
i may just root my phone as i really am not happy with this jellybean update, nothing has really improved for me, if i root it and install a rom like codename all the features like quick reply would be there right?
For some reason I see the brightness changes automatically in certain apps.
The auto brightness is off and set to full.
The brightness dims in the following screens:
1. Open original browser it dims , if entering web address it is back to full. Chrome does not encounter same problem
2. Original samsung mail app (not GMAIL) dims. If writing a new mail (reply/forward) it goes back up.
The brightness in the browser settings is set to full (not auto).
I tried to find an answer on the web but could not find. It drives me crazy!!!
Must say that I have the phone for 3 months and it started only a few days ago.
the only thing I can remember is that I was on WIFI and it started to update apps but how can I know what was changed and [email protected]#$ed my brightness control?
I assume that you're using a stock (or stock-based) ROM. Try to enter settings and deactivate the power saving mode if it's enabled. Then reboot - just to be sure - and look if the issue is gone.
Can't think of anything else at the moment...
Hope it helps
In stock browser disable auto brightness setting.

I can't believe I missed it. I've tried brightness in stock browser, tried battery saving from brightness menu.
I just didn't notice the toggle of battery saving in the main menu.
Thanks...
Hah, nice to hear that youe problem has been solved
Hi,
Ever since updating to 402 firmware & unlocking BL I have noticed a issue with notifications being delayed, I use DoubleTwist alarm app (paid) & set alarm to go off at 9 am, I then wake up thinking I have woken up before the alarm has went off but when I double tap the screen to see the time as soon as the lock screen appears the alarm then goes off & the time is 10:30 am which as you can imagine causes problems with being late, the stock alarm app works fine & goes off at the right time with no issues.
The Calendar app does the same, if I get a reminder then tap snooze for 30 mins it wont notify me again till I unlock the screen & then the app shows the snoozed reminder.
I have done full system reset, wipes etc & cleared data & then uninstalled the DoubleTwist alarm app but the issue still keeps happening.
Any idea's?
Me also facing the same problem seems like we have to wait for the new firmware to fix the bug

Yeah hopefully the 438 firmware will fix the issue, just wondering though if you use stamina mode on with extended standby option enabled?

If you're using Stamina Mode then make sure to include the said app in the exclusion list so that it can run in the background while Stamina is on.
I had to do that in order to stop my smartwatch from disconnecting itself every time I want to view a notification.
Cheers for the reply HussainQ, I do have DT alarm app in the whitelist along with calendar app, calendar sync etc, about 24 apps in the list so far.
What annoys me is that Sony changed stamina mode in 402, before on 55 I could just tap the quick tile to turn it on without having to have extended standby or extended usage enabled ie using the quick tile turned stamina mode on without getting the the cancel/configure box, in 402 now tapping the quick tile brings up that cancel/configure box & stamina mode won't stay on unless I tick extended standby.
Hi all,
I have been looking and experimenting on toggling my phone mobile data and so far i have no luck.
What i want Tasker to do is to toggle my mobile data while at a certain time. I haven't had much luck so far as I cannot make the toggles work on an unrooted phone. The phone I'm trying to automate is on the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge. I have AutoInput as a plugin which works well for other toggles such as GPS but the mobile data not so much.
I am welcome to suggestions and appreciate your time.
Hi all,
I've managed to find out a way through quick settings or pull down menu, but it does not collapse when the screen is off. The lock screen just shows it pulled down. It works​ when using the phone but not on the lock screen. Is this a known bug? Is there a work around to it?
Cheers
