Turning off 3G

(1/3) > >>

olc:
Is there some way to turn off the 3G and still be able to use wifi? I would like the assurance that I'm not wasting any of my limited 3G data plan where there is wifi. Airplane mode kills both 3G and wifi so that doesn't do it. I could just remove and replace the SIM card, but that's painful to do all the time. Is there no switch in settings to toggle 3G?

There are many apps POB there market that allow that functionality. I have 4gLte so I don't know exactly what will work for the 3g HSPA+ with the N7. I do know that there are apps out there that will do exactly what you're looking for. Search Google Play and let us know what you find.

MoreQuicklyPanel or SettingsExtended. I believe they are both free. I use Settings on my phone and More on my N7.

Thanks to both of you. I have found several widgets that will do it. I asked the question because Google tech support said there was no way. I think the device side of Google needs a lot of work.

I'd be surprised if the stock Power control widget didn't allow this?

Open app tray, select widgets and find the "Power control" widget.
