I have a Blackberry 9780 running 6.0 Bundle 1879. I am on Tmobile (US) and subscribe (when I'm traveling outside of the US) to Tmobile's flat rate Blackberry International email plan. My phone is not associated with a BES.

So far, when roaming, the only way I've found to guarantee that I don't accidentally run up roaming charges is to essentially uninstall, or at least disable, all applications on my phone other than email that might use network resources. As you might imagine, this is a PITA.

Is there a way to essentially set up a firewall so that all communication that is not included in Tmobile's flat rate plan is blocked? A 3rd party application, even one at a reasonable cost would be worth the investment for me.
