Wifi and 3g toggling question.

Will it waste my battery more if I have 3g and wifi on at the same time? Even though only wifi shows up.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Wifi and 3g are never on at the same time. When you turn wifi on, it automatically disables 3g.

Okay, but does that mean it is better for me to leave both on just in case I leave the house and forget to turn off wifi. Or does that drain more battery?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Depends on what your wifi sleep policy setting it set to. If its set to never, then your wifi would never turn off.
But generally, yes, it uses less battery on wifi than 3g, so use that whenever possible.

What I'm trying to say is: if I have both toggles on does it use more battery? Even though wifi overrides.

If your WiFi is on but not connected to a network then yes it would drain more battery.

That makes sense. But I meant the opposite lol. Like if I have wifi and 3g on. Is 3g draining any battery? And sorry I suck at explaining.

No, 3G wouldn't be draining your battery because wifi turned it off.

No ads, no unnecessary permissions. Tons of options and customizability and widgets.

How do I prevent the flashlight from auto shut off
I have my screen set to turn off after 30 seconds of inactivity. I'd like to leave it that way but the flashlight also turns off after 30 seconds. Short of rocking the volume or something is there a way to make a program override the 30 seconds?
I'd probably like to set it for about 5 minutes to autoshutoff for the flashlight.

Wimax

If I NEVER use 4G, can I freeze all of the WiMax stuff without causing any problems? I am trying to find ways to stop so much usage by Android system. Usually showing about 80-90 percent.

That is accurate. Like Windows all apps running on your phone go through Android system. It is the OS. In Froyo it was incorrectly pushed to the display percentage. If you have light usage and after about 12 hours your percentage should be between 60 to 70 percent. Freezing WiMax won't do anything since they only run if you turn on 4G.

Thanks Kenny,
Most times I am in the 80's, so when I saw things like WiMax line test, and mode change and Net test, i was wondering if those were things running, even though I never even bother with 4G. but i guess it makes sense that if I am not turning 4G on, ther services most likely are not causing any issues...i guess i will keep digging!

If you want, you can run CM7. It doesnt have any 4G stuff in it, and I hear typical android system usage is in the 20%'s.

With CPU Spy how much deep sleep does your phone get? Reboot, put it down for 30 minutes. Open it and check CPUSpy. You should have most of that as deep sleep. Of course this is off charger. Charging keeps phone awake at 100 Mhz.

911 is fixed, before a new build is posted Decad3nce needs to be home(school/work) as this is a serious matter, so it'd be best for him to handle it because his name is on it, as you can understand. mkasick found out what the issue was and fixed it, the Fascinate has it as well, the fix is for CDMA phones....the Vibrant might actually be f*cked... UberPinguin, mkasick, and noobnl did it yesterday though but called 911 today through proper means and verified that it works. And pushed the fix upstream to official CM so that it can be included in.

The exact same issue was posted a few hours ago about 8 post down..."Time Warner Won't accept Rooted devices."

Just unroot your phone. Shouldn't be that hard. On CM9 u can simply do it in your settings.

There is no evidence that cell phone use in planes would cause any issues with flights. However, the second I noticed the radio was on, I turned it off. I tend to use the in flight wifi to listen to Google Music and TuneIn.
