With the release of Android 12, Google choose to replace the WiFi and Cellular toggles with a unified Internet one, but I can show you how to get it back.

Google says they did some user studies and have come to the conclusion that most people who toggle off WiFi do so in order to force a connection to their cellular provider.

This results in those people forgetting they have WiFi disabled and racking up mobile data charges. So to combat this, the company says a unified Internet button is the better route.

This may or may not affect you, but if you want that WiFi and Mobile Data toggles back on Android 12 then I can show you how it's done with this simple ADB command.

This does NOT require root access but does mean that you must install ADB & Fastboot tools.

I'm reading this doesn't really work on the Pixel 6 series. While it does work temporarily, it seems the toggles end up disappearing later on.

I tested this on my Pixel 4a and it's working as expected.
