    Maybe I was imagining this

    But ever since a new sim card was installed by t mobile
    I believe this toggle icon disappeared

    I believed it allowed you to see at a glance if you were using cellular data

    It also allowed you to turn cellular data
    off or on

    Its been bothering me
    Maybe I'm tripping

    It definitely hasn't been taken away by T-Mobile. I still have a Mobile Data toggle in the Quick Settings on my A32 5G from T-Mobile.

    I tried using button order thinking it would be in extra unused icons

    But it's not there either

    I showed it to reps at tmobile store yesterday
    and they had no answer for me

    When I was still with Sprint their online chat techs had no answer for me

    It happened after new sim from tmobile

    It happened to both my phone and wife's phone after new sims

    Can't be related to sims Can it?

    Call them to provision your sim to the device and see what happens

    Swipe down twice from the top of the screen so that you have the full Quick Settings panel open. Then tap the 3 dot menu button at the upper right, then Edit Buttons. Do you see the toggle in the Available Buttons window? Make sure to scroll left and right in that window to see all of the available buttons.

    Yes did all that

    Right away

    But icon or button is gone

    What I really want to know is if other Sprint users have had this problem

    This is all part of Sprint Tmobile merger

    Checked my son's S8+, took pics of the screen, no Mobile Data toggle on it. It's an Android 9 device. I did take it out of Airplane Mode to check after I shot the screens, no change.


    Did Android 9 have a icon in pull down menu for mobile cellular data?-20210901_213926.jpgDid Android 9 have a icon in pull down menu for mobile cellular data?-20210901_213903.jpg

    You also tapped the Menu button there to see if there's an Edit or Add Button option?

    So tmobile or Samsung has deleted the mobile data toggle in the quick menu.

    Why?

    And is it that important

    Well I do like seeing at a glance if I am using
    Mobile data

    There are other less easy ways to check if you are using mobile data

    So you can still check

    But no one told the users of this change

    Or maybe it was an unintended consequence thing

    I don't know and does android 11 have this
    Mobile data toggle

    I'll run it by tmobile tech tomorrow

    Or maybe they don't want you to know if you are using mobile data

    It's weird

    Google probably doesn't care

    All they're concerned now is with Android 12

    The ADB thing is beyond my capability

    But the app works good so far

    ADB is interesting though

    My Note 9 was a Sprint device, and after T-Mo took charge, they wiped the Sprint splash screen off the device, but it has a Mobile Data toggle on it, but it's Android 10. My Note 20 is AT&T unlocked, and has a MoData toggle, as well. But son's AT&T S8+ does not.
