I'm using a Samsung SCH-i760 on Verizon, and when I installed this program, I only had one network to disable: BroadBandAccess.
The reason I downloaded this program is because I was referred to it in another forum, when asking how I can avoid using Verizon's pay-per-kB data network, and still use MMS. A user there said he/she/it was using it and it blocked BBA, but not SMS/MMS/Phone connections. Unfortunately, I installed the program, disabled my only choice, and immediately tried to send a picture message... The message didn't send. I went back into NoData and enabled the BBA network and sent the same picture message from the DRAFTS folder, and it sent with no problem at all. Is there any way to use SMS/MMS/Phone while blocking pay-as-you-go data usage?

Hi
is this the fix for my O2 account when I'm abroad? When ever I'm over sea's what ever phone I'm using; XDA Exec, XDA Mini S, alway rack up a bill by ringing up somewhere and loging on for 4 seconds then disconecting. Not bothered trying my Kaiser I simpley dont take anything except my company phone abroad now, or get local SIM Cards, or the USA's case a pay as you go motorola $28 from Radioshack! O2's loss! they told me its was a normal thing! HA! regards Howie |

This works well, but it'd be nice to use it via the command-line, and without confirmations and pings. I'm thinking in terms of being able to use it with SBSH's PhoneWeaver so that I have an item that turns WiFi on & GPRS off, vice versa, just GPRS off, etc. I know that I can do that by creating a non-functional Internet entry and toggling that or my provider's entry in PhoneWeaver. But using nodata is more elegant and eliminates the 'cannot connect with your settings' pop-ups.
Any possibility of adding command-line switches? -- something like a numerical or free-text switch to select the item from the GPRS items list, and another for on or off (or just toggle), and (perhaps) another for prompt/silent A great little tool, so thanks anyway if this isn't possible.

Excellent app me ol' pedigree chum! I'm off to the states in the mornin so this will work wonders! Now all we need is an app to fool those lame yank networks into not charging us for receiving calls
Cheers again mate. |

Quick, handy little application i've rustled up as i'm off abroad for a few days soon, and don't want to run up a huge GPRS bill. It lists your GPRS connections, and allows you to disable them so that they won't be used. Disable your connections before you leave, re-enable them when you return - piece of cake with MoDaCo NoData P Hi I know this is a registry tweak app but is it possible to add a scheduling feature, so that you can get nodata to enable/disable at set times ? Thanks Wooley |

WOW, a much needed app, a big bonus its FREE
Take it even though it invokes GPRS it doesnt actually connect and we can ignore the little G. Got it installed on my XDA Graphite WM6. Thanks again. |

Paul
Can we send you money for this application? I used to get huge phone bills when my phone dialed GPRS without my knowledge and all that is sorted. Other guys have a "donate" facility to compensate them for their time and perhaps motivate them to continue support. Not talking about sending a lot so don't go buying a car but certainly willing to donate. How do I do it? |

Hmmm, little G sounds like it's still connecting. Anyone else?

help
after installing this app i can no longer dial out or send texts, what registry value has been chnged so i can correct this EDIT: some more info i have found WIFI and Bluetooth still work, GPRS, telephone and text do not i have the orange operator logo and signal strength indicator but the big G has gone when my girlfriend tries to call my phone she is rewarded with "network busy" if i try to call out i get "dialing" displayed for a few seconds then it hangs up with "call ended" i have tried toggeling all the options within the NODATA program with no luck i have 5 options in the program 1 - enabled 2 - enabled Orange GPRS WAP - Enabled Orange Interntet - Enabled Orange MMS - Enabled not sure what other info i can supply but hope you can help me dave i will also add that it is entirly possibe this is a ntwork problem and nothing to do with NODATA, though i have never had this before and it does seem odd that it coincided with the installation of the software Edit 2 i hav tried my SIM in another phone and it works, so i guess i can rule out network trouble Edit 3 A hard reset has fixed my device, but reinstalling NODATA causes the problem again. Is there any info i can provide for you for debugging purposes before i reinstall all my phone software? Dave This post has been edited by highlorddave: Jan 19 2008, 19:59 |
