I am sure other programs do that as well. It is just the option I use. You can get it from Google play (should be one of the pre loaded apps)

When you set up wifi one of the options is that the phone alert you when wifi is available. It don't connect automatically because you'll need a password but at least you'll know if the coffee shop or waiting room has it available.

The problem with Android is that they al vary slightly in how you actually get to a feature. Unlike the iPhone that works the same.

I might try and get that juice programme. I think my main concern is that I'm not roaming about when I'm abroad without realising.

Here's my phone, but it's still doesn't work yet.

Everyone's got one of those or an iPhone.

Still waiting for my Blackberry Z10 to materialize next to me when I wake up.

Only turn on the data connection when you're using it then, I've just got a galaxy mini which is probably similar. Like JW said, swipe from the top of the screen down to the bottom. Along the top of the screen are boxes with things like GPS and wifi that you can turn on and off, swipe/scroll the boxes from right to left and there should be one that says Mobile Data, that turns the data connection through the mobile network on and off.

You can turn it on/off in the settings too, Settings -> More Settings -> Mobile netwoks -> Mobile data

With it turned off you won't be able to send/recieve picture messages even if wifi is connected.

OR - she could stop being tight and buy a bundle with unlimited data in the UK, and a roaming bundle for when she is in France. If she can afford half a chalet in France, she can afford a decent phone contract.

Thanks. I think I get that. I don't actually use my phone much and on my last contact used none of the data at all , and only a fraction of the minutes and texts. I'm going to search for those controls you said.....still no active sim yet

Or do like I do and get a job with a multinational telecommunications company, I've not paid a bill for my cell phone since 1988.

Can you imagine a telephone company employing mee Wb?

I've done the swipe thing and these are the buttons I've found. Is the grey one the one I have to turn off? I'm assuming it's grey because the sim isn't active yet? I don't think there's any more buttons , it won't swipe sideways. What does BT mean?

there's more to the right off the screen, you can slide them across. (edit: i think, there is on mine... oops didnt fully read that there. the symbol on mine is 2 arrows side by side, 1 up and 1 down) if not then you should be able to find a widget for it somewhere.
