"A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..." I was trying to toggle
mobile data without using APNDroid.
Tasker help files states:
"Set mobile data status without affecting incoming calls.
This action has the disadvantage that Android may manipulate it
internally when certain things happen e.g. wifi disconnected.
Note: this action requires that Mobile Data is intitially turned *on*
in Android System Settings.
When Mobile Data is *off* in System Settings, this action will have no
effect.
It has been reported that many Google apps reenable the setting. "

Tried enabling Mobile Data in android settings, and then using Tasker
Action "Mobile Data" to control it, but actually Tasker gets such
control over it that you can not turn it on/off manually (in phone
options menu, by clicking in power hardware button) after Tasker
interaction. Tasker becomes "da boss" and its only possible to enable/
disable by running the tasker appropriate action.
(pic of similar menu -> http://htcphones.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache/67fa6_thumb_tall_onOffhold.png)
I was said that the click on that software button could be captured by
Tasker somehow, but my tasker skills are not enough for that, so...

Anyone has a clue to do it?

Thanks in advance.
