This is crucial because I noticed that when you tap on the battery meter in the taskbar before, you see that the timer is still running with live data which is purportedly dormant or disconnected!
But this tweak actually turns off that data after 60 seconds. The timer doesn't show.
I just checked again just now coming back from the Facebook app.

What does this mean?

Well - if it works like it did on 6.1 - the 6.5 battery drain just stopped for me!
(btw - I cheated & used strra's cab that does the same thing & floating around ppcgeeks via search)
So while the data disconnect tweak works perfectly, there is a nasty side effect:
- When your data IS re-connected & there is a phone call, you can't answer a call during web surfing or mail downloading.

For example: My push email is checking for mail, a phone call comes in simultaneously.
I slide to answer.
Rings stop but I cannot hear the other party & vice versa.

Shallylive's suspendresume#777 tweak works to counteract this effect- however, it keeps the data ON thereby negating the data disconnect cab altogether.

Any solution for best of both world?
