    What [automated] apps (or techniques) do you use to ensure
    radios are off?
    (This is not a question of manual techniques.)

    For a variety of logically prudent reasons it may be useful to
    automatically turn some, each or all of our radios off, whether
    they are
    a. gps
    b. wi-fi
    c. cellular
    d. cellular data
    e. nfc
    f. bluetooth
    g. mobile hotspot
    h. nearby shares
    etc. (any others?)

    The reasons for shutoff could be any one or all of these
    defensible basics:
    1. Battery drain
    2. Data charges
    3. Privacy protection
    4. Compute resources
    etc. (any others?)

    What _automated_ apps (or techniques) do you use to ensure some,
    most, or
    even all your radio transceivers are automatically turned off
    when unused?

    the iphone probably can't do anything like it but people should
    be able to
    find android hardware utilities to do what is asked with all
    kinds of user
    preference switches based on time of day or inactivity period or
    whatever

    Can the those in the Android newsgroups please stop cross-posting
    their know-nothing replies to the Phone newsgroup. We're not at all interested in these garbage misinformation posts. :-\


    I have no problem with them. I just stick my fingers in my ears and
    shout la la la la .......la la.

    Try it man!

    He's probably lying.

    he uses the 'jailbreak tweak' as a thinly veiled attempt to bash ios
    devices, without any clue as to what is possible with or without a
    jailbreak.

    You only alluded to iOS apps which nobody will find on the Apple app store.

    It's your thinly veiled way to say iOS can't do it but you wish it could.

    Meanwhile, Android already does it as evidenced by the apps that do exist.

    But that was conveniently ignored, because it doesn't fit some

    there's nothing bogus about it. 'arlen' has done exactly that and
    continues to do that.

    Sigh! Martin posted in comp.mobile.android, so if 'Arlen' would have
    forged him, he would have been doing that in the *same* group, so bogus argument.
