I'm traveling to China for two weeks. Would like to bring my smartphone (Motorola Razr Maxx HD) and use only for calls and texts, but no 3G/4G data. I would plan to use free wireless when available for my internet needs. I've heard horror stories about people going overseas and getting totally screwed because their phone is still pinging for data sources, even if they don't knowingly use data or try to turn it off. I've heard airplane mode can be an option - but then I can't receive calls, which I will need for business. I do have a User Controls app that turns off 3G/4G (supposedly), but it's hard to tell if it shuts off everything in the background.
Any suggestions/ideas on this? I'm hoping someone has experience with this and a simple solution. Thanks!
