When you turn it off are you using the status bar toggle or system settings?
I used the notification bar toggle but i check in settings and its disabeled but still consuming my mobile data plan. I also try to disable it directly on settings but no change are made

Hm strange I would try factory reset
I fix it!!!! I enter un safe mode and everything was working fine and i realized that sometging were wrong with an app and it was DU speed booster with the engine + mode active in accessibility. I turn it off and everything it's fine now.
Can't disable mobile data
Has anyone else solved this problem of not being able to turn off mobile data? I have turned off mobile data in settings, wiped the cache partition, turned off background data on every app, turned off the automatic smart switch, tried it in safe mode and mobile data is still on. 4G symbol is greyed out in notification bar, but data is still on. Only thing that turns it off is airplane mode, which is not good as I cannot receive calls. I have read that someone with the same ptoblem did a factory reset and it was not the solution. My phone is a not rooted Note 3 running 5.0 lollipop with no updates available. I also tried SIM cards from 2 different providers and problem persists.
I have the same problem too

I used to have the same problem until I installed another ROM in my phone, in this case, PHRONESIS.
I never found how to solve it.

Hi everyone, I had a quick question I needed your assistance on.
Sometime I put my N1 into Airplane mode to save battery and when I finally turn airplane mode off I can never seem to get a data connection unless I totally shut off the phone and turn it back on again. Coming out of Airplane mode there will be a 3g signal on the status bar but only the up arrow will light up and anything needing data (browser, market, etc) wont work unless I totally shut off the phone and turn it back on again. Is this happening to you too?
The same thing happens if I open up the Quick Settings app and turn off mobile data (to save battery) and when I turn mobile data back on I have to restart the phone entirely for it to work properly.
It seems like my phone might be having an issue with data connection so I might have to call up HTC about it but I wanted to find out from the other members on the forum if this was happening to them too.
Thank you for your help
It's happened to me before using APNdroid.
Apparently you can fix it by turning the radio on and off in the testing menu (*#*#4636#*#), never tried it though.

Whoops, so I did. Good spot!
I've tried having the Sense Data and Wi-Fi widgets on my home screen so I can turn off data while at home and turn off Wi-Fi when I'm not. I've also tried QuickSettings and MySettings from the app store for the same purpose. (Couldn't find the option in MySettings though.)
Anyway, it seems that my data settings end up corrupted when I use these. I've only had my Aria for a few days, so I haven't pinpointed which one is the culprit. Last night my data wouldn't connect no matter which button I pressed. I turned the phone off and back on, but still no data. When I compared my APN settings to a friend's Aria, I realized that a dash (-) had been added to a few of the settings like the server, etc. When I reset the APN settings to default, everything started working again.
Then earlier today, when I disabled my wi-fi and tried to enable the data, it wouldn't connect. I checked the APN settings and they seemed correct. I reset to default anyway, but it still wouldn't connect. This time when I turned the phone off and back on, everything worked fine.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Does SwitchPro have a data on/off switch? What's the most reliable way to enable wi-fi/disable cell data and vice-versa?
Let me ask another question.. if I turn on Wi-Fi when I'm at home, am I really even saving much battery by turning off the 3G data? Maybe I should just leave it on and not worry about this?
Well... no one seems to have an opinion on this one. I got rid of Quick Settings and MySettings, briefly downloaded SwitchPro, then refunded it and decided to go with Extended Controls. Really liking it so far. Haven't left the house yet to try the data on/off switch yet though and I don't get a signal at my house, so I can't try it here. I'll post results here later.
Hello, I have problem with mobile data on stock rom. For example when I turn off wifi and turn on mobile data, only thing which changes is shortcut icon. But in status bar there is no sign of data turned on and of course I can ´t use internet.
Only sollution is to restart phone, but this occur every day and it is annoying.
I have frozen some apps and greenified them, but nothing really sensual.
No idea?
Hey,
I've had my 6P for more than 3 months now, and have experienced no issues - everything used to work fine.
But starting about a week or so ago, my data won't turn off, no matter what I do. The only way I can keep my data off is if I put it on airplane mode, and I can't do this, as I need to call and text. I've checked and unchecked the box a million times, rebooted into safe mode, factory reset my device, and when all else failed, get it replaced. This issue has not gone away, even on my replacement 6P. My data is being pissed away by background usage, and at this point, have to keep my phone on airplane mode all the time, meaning no texting or calling.
I'm on 6.0.1 with the February patch.
I've scoured the internet for solutions, but no one else seems to be experiencing this issue.
Please help me.
a) uninstall the apps that are "pissing away your data" in the background. Not difficult.
b) options - data usage - cellular data. click that off. if that's what you're doing and it keeps turning itself back on, on TWO different deviced it's something YOU are doing/have done to turn it back on. Likely the same garbage app that's draining your data in the background.
what do you have installed

I'll delete an app, and check to see if the issue is gone, and reinstall if it isn't (obviously get rid of it if it's causing the issue). I'll go through all of the non-stock apps and report back.
Thanks for the reply!

I went through every single one of my apps, and none of the apps seem to be causing the problem. Also, the problem remains on safe mode.
What now?
What cell provider do you have?
This is a known issue on project Fi, I've had it for several weeks as well. On Fi, it only does this if on T mobile, not Sprint. Not sure if other providers have the issue. I just received the March security update today and it didn't fix it.
Others with the issue:
