unfortunately i do not have the image anymore which i flashed, but i am very very sure it was a phosh image.
my login is "demo", so maybe i have some wierd demo image with some special settings or so? no idea.

I use phosh on debian ATM. And I also see settings > mobile, where I can disable mobile data.

That said, the strange thing with phosh is, that even when mobile (APN settings) is not configured right, or after I disabled "mobile data", it still show a "4G" at the status balk. This shows the impression that it is using mobile data while it's not the case. This is confusing.

Oh, and because this is a international forum and people don't speak the same language, some things may sound harder than it is meant Wink

I have the 4G above also.
Top of this settings page has a button labeled Mobile, which seems to be the phone itself.
under that is 'Network' with the 'Mobile Data' switch and a 'Data Roaming' switch

If I turn off the top 'Mobile' switch I kill all phone function

Yes, you are right. When I switch off 'Mobile' at the top, 4G in the status balk also disappear.
