Blocking and preventing changing mobile data / mobile hotspot

[Utelias]

Here's what I'd like to do: schedule a block that turns off mobile hotspot or mobile data for a chosen time and prevents turning them back on before a set time. Can you recommend apps for this (or perhaps some other forum to ask for help)?

Using a Samsung S3 with 4.4.4

Welcome to Android Forums.

The following Tasker profile will turn mobile data and WiFi off from 11:00 to 11:15 and then turn it back on. WiFi cannot be turned on/off this way after Android 5.0.

Profile: Data Toggle
Time: From 11:00AM Till 11:14AM
Enter: Anon
A1: Mobile Data [ Set:Off ]
A2: WiFi [ Set:Off ]
Exit: Anon
A1: Mobile Data [ Set:On ]
A2: WiFi [ Set:On ]

More information can be found in the Tasker sub-forum of this forum.

So that script will prevent me from turning them back on during that time?

During that time you can go into system settings and turn both of them back on.

I'd like to not be able to turn them on.

I think that will require root-ing the phone.

On an un-root0ed phone pulling the SIM would stop Data but also stop Voice and would not stop WiFi.

Pulling sim, meaning remove the sim card?

 

[Thom]

Yes
