ICS Backround Data always Enabled

nuked — Sun, 03 Jun 2012 21:35:55 GMT

used to be on 2.3.4 if I turn off backround data some applications can't work such as market,gmail,gtalk...etc.

it's good for battery and performance of phone it be come more battery friendly

now on ICS backround Data always Enabled even disabled from switch on menu but all services still works on play(market),gtalk,gmail...etc

if backround data enable/disable switch menu is useless on android4 why still there

4.0.3 and 4.0.4 roms are infected clean install or repair system doesn't work on that

Regards.

how do you know that gtalk is working or gmail, you have to open them, by doing so there are no longer background data, but seems a bit odd that gtalk work w/o selecting that

even I turn off applications such as gtalk gmail..etc whatever there are

and sometime later somehow they will run as backround

mostly if network data enabled they can run as backround even sync disabled

that's quite odd, do you have an antivirus taskiller or did you rooted your phone? the reason I asked is because there might be an app with extra permissions

I tried on clean install no extra apps installed

if you have ics installed xperia you can try this

disable backround sync/service than run google play it will open with no error

or if you have GB rom

google play asks to run for needed turn on backround service if you don't refuse to run

Go to 'Data usage' in settings & turn on 'Mobile data'. Set a mobile data limit. Press menu button. There will be 'Restrict background data'.

As neotheone said if you set a restriction on data limit , it will then restrict background data

However it will only work if you use mobile network connection, if you use Wi-fi then the bacground data restriction won't work

my problem is not restrict background network data(internet)

can't restrict backround applications via disable backround sync option

You can't disable it.... That's what i told, you could only disable when you switch off wifi and then set a limit to data usage and then select disable background data traffic.

This feature was fully functional on GB but on ICS it has limitations

i know what you are trying to say is how to stop apps from accessing google play

Hay guy, I just see it in setting/developer Apps on Background process limit that we could choosed 'no background processes' also.
