Missing Mobile Data icon in quick panel

Have you edited the quick settings panel so that you can see there are about 2 dozen different quick settings, not all of them are showing in the default setup?

Thanks for the tip formerlyknownas, but Mobile Data still isn't an option on the available buttons (about 22 additional options), so not sure what else to try. 

We understand the importance of helping you figure out how to add app shortcut icons via your quick panel, @jancurnutte.

Special thanks for our ACE, @formerlyknownas for their quick response and expertise. Our first recommendation would be to use this resource to add app shortcuts via your Samsung S22 Ultra.

• To remove Home screen shortcuts, touch and hold the app you want to remove, and then tap Remove.

• To add a different app to Favorite apps, navigate to the Apps screen, touch and hold your desired app, and then drag it to your desired location in the Favorite app bar.

• If you have so many favorites that picking 5 shortcuts is just impossible, you can create a folder by dragging a shortcut on top of another shortcut.

Our second recommendation would be to enable or disable your mobile data. 

Thanks for the info, but it's still not solving my issue. I'm attaching screenshots for you to see that "Mobile Data" isn't even listed as an option (in the quick panel or an available button). I just received my phone last week and got it set up, changing from Verizon to AT&T and, yes, I did insert the new SIM card that came with the phone. 

Hi jancurnutte, we are here to help you enable your mobile data icon!

We recommend checking your notification settings and turning on the notification badges by swiping down the notification bar> settings icon>scroll down to Advanced settings>App icon badges switch>on.

To also manage display options for the status bar. From Quick settings, tap three doted lines>More options > Status bar. Reference from page 26 of the user manual.

Next, ensure that your device software is updated to the latest software to make sure you have the latest features and device protection options.

If this doesn't help, we recommend reaching out to Samsung to inquire about the device specific feature that is not seen on your status bar.

Let us know if this helps! Thank you for reaching out to the AT&T Community Forums!

The App incon badges was turned on. I did a systems update, and checked all items again and it's still not there. I will contact Samsung to try to get the issue resolved. Thank you.

Update after contacting Samsung Live Chat Customer Support.... 

• did a soft reset - no luck
• Reset settings on device to default - no luck
• Reset network settings - no luck
• Technician logged in to my device remotely - still unable to fix the issue

Recommended that I take it to a certified technician in my area. 

Very disappointed that this phone is just under a week old and already have to take it somewhere to be fix. It must be something with AT&T because my husband's new phone is having the same issue (Galaxy A13 5G). 

Thank you for keeping us posted, jancurnutte!

Let's go ahead and meet in a direct message, so we can raise a case escalation for further research.

Our direct message will appear in the upper right corner of the Forums which is the chat icon next to the bell icon.

Keep an eye out for our message! Speak with you soon!

The simple answer is that AT&T's modifications to the OS (they always seem to modify the most helpful features) mean that they actually removed that option.  The ability to add that to the Quick Panel is simply not there.  It used to be there way back around the Android 5 and the Galaxy S4 days, but has since disappeared.

That's why you can't find it. And no one among the current AT&T support staff seems to know that.

Just like AT&T also disabled the ability to change the network type in Mobile Settings.  That helpful option has been unavailable on AT&T phones for much longer.

Nothing you can do about it for the shortcut.  At least there's an app in the Play Store that reveals the hidden network mode options.  No such app for the shortcut however.  There is supposedly some convoluted adb command that will reveal that icon in the list, but you will have to search for that on youtube.

Well, that's extremely disappointing. But, I do appreciate your response in finding out what's going on. It's just very cumbersome to manually go in and disable/enable mobile data so I don't get dinged from using so much data (which in a week, I'm already nearly at 2GB warning in one week since I just got this phone). Hope that the programmers fix that issue and send out an update soon. Thanks again for the update.
