Is there an app that will turn off the phone service like you have removed the sim but leave wifi and bluetooth on?
Airplane mode...turning airplane mode on will turn off everything but u just have to turn WiFi and Bluetooth on again and only your service wont work

No offense taken as this is really my first smart phone as I don't count my few months with a tracfone s390g becaust it is so crippled.
I knew about airplane mode but did not know I could turn on wifi and bluetooth and it would leave the service off. I figured turning on wifi would turn off airplane mode.

Thanks that helps a lot. I knew about airplane mode but did not know I could turn on wifi and bluetooth and it would leave the service off. I figured turning on wifi would turn off airplane mode.
Just in case you wanted to do this the 'fun' way..
Open dialer and type *#*#4636#*#*
Select Phone Information
Scroll down and click Turn Radio Off
Of course, airplane mode works too, but who doesn't like a little back door action? (...that's what she said...)

I think that turning on the airplane mode can use wifi and cant use bluetooth?

On my previous phone I had an app called "Any Cut" that made it easy to put a shortcut on the home screen to get to Phone Info without having to go through the dialer; among other things, I used it for exactly this purpose. I can't find it in the Play Store any more, though. Anybody know of a current app with similar capabilities?

Sorry if this has already been posted, but I can't find a straight answer with a search, only mentions of there being a fix.
Thanks in advance.

I'm on Bonsai 3.01 and it seems to be random whether it clears or not. I did notice if I hear the 3G beep after I boot then TWS stays near 0% and if I don't hear it after boot I get 50% so when I don't hear it I do the airplane mode toggle.
You have to cycle airplane mode after each boot. I use tasker to do it automaticaly but its a paid app, well worth it for all you can do with it tho.

Is there another app that can auto toggle airplane mode? I don't want to buy a $6.45 app when I only want that one specific function.

Not sure but tasker can do a lot more. For example when I get in my car it shuts down my Wifi turns on my gps and prompts me to select which music app I want to listen to.

I'm reading the description and don't see whether it's automated or not. Can you set it to flip at boot? There are tons of manual toggle widgets and that's not what I want.
If your running a custom rom couldn't you create a shell script to run from init.d ?

I saw this posted somewhere, but can't seem to find it now.. someone had posted a code that you punch into the dialer to turn off power saver for WiFi, and speed up your WiFi a little. Does anyone know about this ? Thanks

Perhaps you mean this?
1. Open up the Galaxy S3 phone dialer
2. Then dial *#0011#
3. Look for the “ServiceMode” screen and press the left menu button
4. Select “WiFi”
5. You should see that the “WiFi Power Save Mode” button is “ON” – now put it on “OFF”
6. You're done! Just exit the menu, switch off your WiFi, then switch it back on again. If your router details are saved and automatically connects, get your Galaxy S3 to forget or delete the network information. Then reconnect, putting in all the required information.

Is the battery life significantly worst with Power Saver off?

My app was having problem with running with an AP from where I download video to play. I tried the workaround on my S3 and my app worked fine. However, I cannot suggest my customers to do the same. I've tried to use the WIFI_FULL_HIGH_PERFORMANCE mode, and it really did not help me. Is there a way for me to disable the wifi power save mode programmatically?
How can i turn wifi power save mode on huawei phones? They don't have those options.
Is there a way to turn this off? I'm sitting at my desk and wifi turns on. I'm not allowed to have it on at work!!

System settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks/automatic connections... now uncheck sprint automatic connection
Does this option 'on' sucks battery ?coz when i disable it when not needed n while enabling it again most of the time does not lock position on the maps n i have to restart the phone to make it work correctly... so i want it to enable for all the time... will it suck bttry if i enable it all the time??

No it will not, it will use wifi to get location only IF wifi is on and only when an app needs to determine your location.

Defective phone. No one else has this issue. Or you set up is wrong or your using some closed junk to create havoc on your phone
