Install avast and use the firewall feature, u can select which app connects when on wifi or 3g, but your phone must be rooted.

As others have said, use avast. But if your Os is 4.0.4 and above. Goto settings then click on data usage... Scroll down, then click on your apps, scroll down once more, then you would see ' restrict background data' then tick it. That would prevent it from using data when you are not running it.

Bros, greenify stops but doesn't kill permanently. Those apps will work again after a minute. The best is AVAST Antivirus. Root your phone first.

Root your phone
Use any firewall app
You can use app guard to individually block apps and permissions.

Seek no further.You don't need any rooting for "noroot firewall" or "Mobiwol firewall".Both on playstore.Mobiwol is said to have security issues so you may prefer noroot firewall.Thank me later if it works.
