Question about
Data turn off
Does any one know how to turn the Data 3G off manually or a app? I feel that it is whats causing my battery to drain so quickly
There should be a setting in wireless setting/>Mobile networks then click Use only 2G. This is how it is on my G1 so Motoblur might have changed some thing but that should point you in the general direction.
And yes 3G uses more battery then Wifi which uses more then 2G so turning off 3G when not using it will save lots of battery.

In my case, switching to 2G is not sufficient as GPRS still linger on and hence data charges. I had to change the access point's names in "Mobile Network Settings". There is this app call APNdroid that will help you do the same. Cool stuff.
