How do i activate wireless automatically when it starts windows mobile 6? so i don't have to click around all the time.
Try enabling that option in Shap's Advanced Config
It seems, in my experience, that once I turn it on, it stays on. But it will have to reconnect after the screen goes off.
You might be able to use advanced config (I haven't tried) to enable wireless in standby.
you mean the program (attached image)?
Are you sure it's there? I must have missed it...
No whenever i turn the device off wlan is turned off upon booting it up.
Go to 'more settings'.

my data connection won't automatically disconnect, even if i change the setting in tweak HD, or change it directly in teh registry (the GPRS_bye thing).
i thought this was draining my battery (i was lucky to get 15 hours), as it was pretty much connected all the time ( i have it set to chekc email every 2 hours on 5 different accounts)
it was pretty annoying that i was charging the phone overnight, and it wasn't even lasting until the next evening.
but by mistake i have discovered something (could even be in the user manual, i dont know?) and i have found it very useful so i though i would let you know!
if you are just on the home tab, just press the hang up key, and it will disconnect the data! so now whenever i check the time/read a text message/pretty mcuh every time i look at my phone, i press the hang up button when i've finished.
now my battery easily lasts 2 days (normally dies half way through the third day if i'm stupid enough to leave it long enough) - so i am much happier with the phone as a whole.
i also wondered if its possible to turn off data completely overnight?
e.g. is there a task scheduler, so i can schedule the nodata program to run say from 00:00 to 07:00?
Thanks
The above 'finding' is the function of 'End Key'. You can find and configure in 'Settings'.
As for disabling overnight your data connection you could try 'Outlook email Scheduler'
"h..p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438970&highlight=gmail" and have it manually synching an night time.
brillinat works great! i used this key to lock HD but stop all connections is much better choice.
You can leave the "hold button" feature as lock phone and it will still work to turn off the connections of your mobile internet.
For mine, 'single press' shuts down the HSDPA connection, 'hold' locks the phone.
How did you set it so you have only to press the button instead of holding it down to terminate the connection?
Is there any way to switch off the data connection altogether, orange wanna charge me a small fortune to connect. i've already got them to disconnect it but the phone still makes an attempt to connect for weather email etc. is there any way to force it to use the wireless connection only??
You don't need to change anything....well, I didn't. Pressing just once will turn my orange internet (HSPDA) off.

The HD Tweak program (Availabe on these forums) has an option to set up which connections you want to disable. You can perminantly turn off Orange interent from there.
superb!!!
will look later.

Hi,
I just discovered something strange: I use FolderSync to sync Music to my GN. I configured it to only sync when WLAN is available. When I sync and switch the screen of, then the Sync stops immediately and resumes when I switch the Screen back on. Is WLAN switched off when the screen is switched off? Did I miss some settings to configure that?
Thanks
May be related with some auto task killer or process killer like juice defender
Yes you missed some wifi settings. You can set there whether you want to turn off wifi with the screen, keep it always on or keep it always on while charging.
You can find it in:
Settings - wifi - ... - advanced
Thanks martan1981, but this is "always on" on my GN. So thats not the reason
Do you have any battery-saving apps like JuiceDefender or GreenPower installed? That could cause your data/wifi to turn off with the screen.
Or there could perhaps be a power-saving function built in to your ROM? I know AOKP has a Power Saver mode that could be enabled to turn data off with the screen.
wifi sleep policy should be set to never. But some people have a bug where this setting does not stick for some reason. You prob have this bug too.
I also have this problem how to fix it ?
No root stock 4.0.2
I have low needs for my phone and would like to have power saver enabled automatically, however I cannot find a way to do this. Is there any setting, app, tweak, command etc. that will enable power saving mode to start automatically and be the default mode?
I have turned on Powersaver and rebooted my phone. Powersaver stayed active.
I have turned on Extreme Powersaver and rebooted my phone. Extreme Powersaver dit not stay active.
If you require Powersaver only, then it shouldn't turn off once you activate it. If you're referring to Extreme Powersaver, I wasn't able to find anything on that. I will add that I do have a custom ROM. I am not sure if the ROM is why Powersaver stays on or not.
For your use I would do this:
Turn on Powersaver
Turn off Sync
GPS Off (Go to Settings >> Location >> Mode: "Battery Saving")
Turn off scanning for WiFi even while it's off (Go to Settings >> WiFi >> [Click the menu button, 3 dots on top right] >> Advanced >> Uncheck "Scanning always available" There's some other settings you may want to look at as well, like "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" and whatnot.
This is all I can think of to help you out a bit more. If you don't use the internet for background syncing, you can turn off data and turn it on when you get ready to check something. In better service areas, you'll usually have data by time you're done toggling the service.
Thx. you are right about power saving staying enabled through a reboot. However, I would like to not to accidentally disable it. Is there a way to keep power saving enabled and have it not show up on the lockscreen? There should be a way to disable lockscreen notifications for power saver but I can't find one.
The building where I work does not like my cell signal, for some reason. It reads 5 bars, but I get no calls and it says "searching." I have wi-fi calling, which works fine. If I leave the cell radio on, it eats through my battery in half a day even if I never turn on the screen. My workaround so far is to turn on airplane mode when I get to work, then reactivate my wi-fi radio and Bluetooth. It works, but it's clunky and I frequently forget to turn airplane mode back off again when I get in the car to go home if I'm thinking about other things.
Does anyone know if there is a way I could set up a script of some kind that can just deactivate the cell radio when connected to a specific network, and reactivate it when it disconnects? Not just mobile data, but the actual cell radio.
I've downloaded Tasker, Automate, and IFTTT, but so far, I just can't figure them out well enough to get any of them to do what I need them to do. If someone could walk me through how to use them effectively to accomplish this, I'm more than willing to do the work end myself.
Via Tasker app, you can make a profile to do the following actions:
1. Autoinput action to simulate tapping your Airplane Mode setting to ON.
2. Activate WiFi On to connect to your work WiFi.
3. Activate Bluetooth On to connect to any Bluetooth you want.
You can activate all the 3 actions above by pressing a created shortcut widget on your phone home screen when you reached your workplace.
Make another Tasker profile to do the following actions:
1. Automatically turn off WiFi when disconnected for 1 minute. This means when you leave your workplace, your WiFi will be disconnected then after 1 minute your WiFi setting will turn off.
2. Automatically turn off Bluetooth when disconnected for 1 minute (same as above).
3. Autoinput action to simulate tapping your Airplane Mode setting to Off.
The 3 actions above are automatically activated when you leave your workplace.
All the actions above can be activated without rooting your phone
If I enable airplane mode, after few minutes my wifi automatically enable by itself. I use the latest official rom [Lenovo P2a42, build p2a42_s251_171107ROW], never rooted. I looked for virus with malwarebyte and I found none. I disabled use of WLAN for improve geolocalization. I don't know which app enable my wlan, I checked apps permissions and I found nothing useful.
I created a task in tasker, when wifi is actived and airplane mode is off then tasker disable wifi. But this is an infinite loop, because when the task ends, the app (or system) soon try again and then tasker again shut wifi off.
How can I fix it?
I don't remember in detail, if it is the same for your stock ROM, but with Pie, there is an option in WiFi settings to turn on automatically if the device is near a known WiFi location. Did you check this?
