I have an HTC Magic running CyanogenMod-5.0.8-DS. APNDroid works fine
for me on its own (switches mobile data off and on again with the
button in the app) but within Tasker it will switch my data off, but
then it gets stuck at 'off'. To keep things as simple as possible I
even created an 'on' and 'off' widget for each action - again 'off'
works fine, but won't switch back on - even switching On from
APNDroid's UI won't work. The only way to get it back is to restart
the handset or switch APN to something else and back again.
(FWIW JuiceDefender also didn't work for me - I didn't spend much time
trying to figure out details because I was hoping to use Tasker
instead, but basically it made my phone very laggy and my battery life
worse, so maybe it suffered a related problem.)
Is anyone else seeing the same? Any workarounds or solutions?
