Hi to all and thanks for the great tips on this forum. We've been doing a lot of pocketpc development but are new to XDAs.
As most of you would know the new ROM allows the XDA to keep it's connection alive - well, as alive as GPRS will allow it to whilst still letting the screen etc go to sleep.
Does anyone know exactly what it is doing when it goes to sleep as it seems to be doing more than just turning the screen off as we can't seem to turn it back on with the normal calls?
Cheers

Ok this is for all u guyz who want their wifi connected when the phone is turned off so u can receive voip Call
Welll i was playing around with my registry settings and i finally got my wifi to work even when i hit the power button off .
The deal is very simple go to Control panel > System> Power > Advance / Disable turn of device if not used for XX mins
But at the same time do not tick the option to keep the wifi enabled in stand by mode via the Advanced Configuration Tool .. and u should be good 2 go .
This only means that the phone does not go into stand by mode any more . but ur able to turn ur phone off via the power button and ur wifi is still connected. i have tested this for over 3 hours now and it works great
But this also means there is a substantial use of power when the wifi is on and that means that ur battery life will reduce drastically but it works for me
Im using the hermes CRCs Release 13.1-pre6 - Stable (Build 20270)
I was not able to find a thread in the forums for this issues with a work around so if there is already a thread with this issue please ignore this message and moderators please delete this post
regards
Peter
If I will do so. I need to change the setting all the time and it will cause my battery to drown to fast. Thanks for the tip but I am not liking it that way.

Hey everyone
Does anyone here use tasker or have any recommended profiles to help save battery life?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Try Juice Defender with 3g control enabled.
I have mine set to enable every 30mins with good results..
With LOTS of syncing enabled, i get roughly 1% an hour decrease whilst on standby!! Unplugged at 1am on 89% when i went to bed, at 9am when i got up it was at 81%...
Hope this helps!
Dickie
Check WIKI on Tasker site,data profiles created by "brandall" from XDA
Tasker data profiles are better than Juice Defender
JuiceDefender has some annoying bugs in it at the moment (some like issues it has with lockscreen/display timeout) have been around for 4months+ and they still haven't sorted them out) so I've switched to Green Power which seems to do the job very well. Simple and no fuss.
Hi. Anyone here good at creating profiles?
I would like some help. If i want a profile that:
IF screen has been locked for 1 minute, i want WiFi to shut down.
And when i unlock the phone again, i want it to turn on.
But - i don't just want a "toggle wifi by hitting powerbutton"-function,
I only want this to apply if i had wifi on in the first place.
The reason i want this profile is:
If i forget to charge the phone at night, and have wifi going, i have 20% less battery when i wake up. Or if im at a friends house, connected to a wifi... well, same here. If it just lays in my pocket connected to X, i want it to shut down when screen is off. Saves alot of juice.

why dont you use tasker for that,
you can do almost anything with that app.
Creating profiles in tasker isn't a huge difficult task, its easy, Just use trial n error to see if it works.

Why don't just use the stock android checkbox in settings that's there for that? o_ô
Go to settings/network and wifi/wifi settings/hit the menu button and tap advanced parameters/wifi sleep politic/check "when screen goes off".
It does exactly what you described...

Okay, i'll try to find a way on my own..
The reason i don't use androids built-in thing for that is because it drains battery for some strange reason.

Well mine is working fine, no draining at all (wifi on 24h24 with this option checked and my phone drain only 1% every 5 or 6h if the screen is off). The thing is that it shut off the wifi only if no app needs it, so my bet is that those who have a battery drain just have some apps that don't let the phone going in deep sleep.

Hi, if you try LLAMA app instead I could talk you through it (as your not getting an answer you want).
As far as I can tell, LLAMA can do everything that tasker and locale can do but its free. It's also very good on your battery and can use cell towers instead of gps for location.

Not sure if I'm in the right place, new to smartphones. Got myself a Galaxy S2 and rooted it. Main point,
I'm using Tasker and I'm trying to have it set so that it's in Airplane Mode when I have an Alarm set so I get no calls/texts during my slumber.
So far, best thing I've done is the phone goes to Airplane Mode between 00:00 and 0600 everyday as well as when light levels are between 0 and 28 - not sure if the light levels are like, set too low.
So far I love Tasker but very little support online and Tasker Wiki doesn't really help. Trying my best with the trial and error method.
Thanks

Good shout on Green Power. I've had some issues with Juice Defender Ultimate lately and Green Power seems to do more or less the same without the issues.
£1.50 well spent - cheers for the tip

hi,
i'm using "setting profiles".
in the market you have a free and a payment app.
the developers answer the emails at decent speed...
I was just wondering if there was an app that could automatically switch your data to 3G when the screen is locked. I want to use LTE, but theres no point in draining my battery when i'm not using it. I don't want to completely have no data because i still want to be able to get notifications. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Hi there, Once you're screen is off the device will enter deep sleep mode and you will only be getting you're notifications, LTE only really drains when you are actively pushing its bandwidth potential, also stick to WIFI as much as possible and use Greenify to hibernate apps you NEVER want to run in the background unless you are actively using them.
hope this helps
cheers
Hi Guys,
New to HTC Phones, fairly simple question.
Done a bit of Googling, can't find definitive answer.
Is there any way to disable the power saver mode coming on at 15% on the M9 ?
I've turned it off, and it just comes on at 15% there doesn't seem to be any option to stop this automatically happening.
Again you can turn it off and it seems to stay off, but crossing the 15% threshold triggers it again.
Any ideas ?
Thanks
DM
No one ?

Enjoy it!
Before i can remember turning it off from being enabled, but i think that was only through tweaks.
So eventually we will get it in tweaks here too most likely, just have a little patience to get devs settled in with this phone and more stuff will be available to fully customize this phone
Can't you just turn in off or set it on like 5%?
Long story short ... No lol only 15%
