If the device only has bluetooth, what does airplane mode actually do? Is it the same as going to bluetooth and turning it off?
If I'm at work all day and I do not have my android phone with me (because I cant) whats the best way to save battery thru the day? Being away from the phone and not doing anything destroys my phone and my watch battery. I have been putting it in airplane mode. Seems to be the best way to alleviate the issue. Is turning that on disabling any other options?
Airplane mode shuts off all radios Bluetooth, Wi-Fi . Then when you hit airplane mode again it flicks both on at the same time

The 360 does not have wifi or radios.... That was my point.
It switches off the bluetooth. When u hit Airplane mode.
And i dont think there is a dedicated option to turn Bluetooth off in Moto 360 except for the Airplane Mode.

Hi!
Yes, since the last 5.1.1, the Moto 360 can use Wi-Fi to connect with your phone (it's got a built in Wi-Fi chip that wasn't used up to now).

I use my phone with wifi for streaming video at home, if I put the phone into airplane mode and then turn wifi on I obviously save battery but then can't turn on bluetooth to use my BT stereo headphones anyone know of an app that will either just turn off the phone radio or let me turn on both wifi and bluetooth when under airplane mode.
I have spent hours in the market and tried a bunch of apps but nothing lets me turn off the phone radio and not lock bluetooth off.
Anyone know of an app that will handle this?
That is the purpose of airplane mode, to turn off BT and mobile network. You may want to save yourself trouble and turn off airplane mode. Besides, if you plan on using your phone on wifi as well as BT headphones, then you aren't saving any battery. What/who suggested you to regularly turn airplane mode on while using wifi as a battery saving technique? That just makes your phone useless for calls/text though I understand you can use the home phone for calls.
Check out an app called "Better Locale Airplane Mode" in the market. Its 99 cents. I havent used it but you can try it and see if it works.
Cm7 has this natively
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
"Better Locale Airplane Mode" in the market, does work on my two Android 2.2 phones HTC Incredeble and LG Revolution.
The app sets the behavior options when airplane mode is enabed but does not act as a toggle itself, you use the toggle widgets to change the state of wifi and bluetooth on or off.
There is a nice battery savings to using this when not actually flying and only needing wifi and/or bluetooth
Why does my xperia s turns wifi on when I turn the phone on or when I disable flight mode. Is there any way to set the wifi off at boot?
It will boot with the last given state. If you turned the phone off and the WiFi was on, it will boot with WiFi on. Same idea applies to Airplane mode. If the WiFi was on when you turned the airplane mode on, WiFi will be turned on when you deactivate airplane mode.

Even if I turn off the wifi and the phone, when I turn on the phone it will turn on wifi too! It's a very strange thing!
Did you solve this problem?
I had the same issue and it was fix changing the kernel. But I wish to know if thats the same problem thats on my phone.
I want to disable the cellular antennas without using airplane mode. When I use airplane mode but turn wifi on, I stop getting notifications in Hangouts. Is there a way to manually turn off the antennas?

i cant find the setting on stock but i believe the setting to just turn off mobile connection (not the actual wording) is in CarbonRom
When I go to airplane mode my phone cannot connect to wifi. I wonder what is going on with my phone. Is there a setting that disables wifi connection when on airplane mode?
It works for me. I just tried it. Turned on airplane, *wifi turned off when I turned it on of course*, turned wifi back on, and airplane mode was enabled with wifi

The problem is that I cant turn wifi on when on airplane mode
It might have something to do with system updates that occur over time as that's what I've seen while searching through forums. I've had this problem for a few months and finally decided to do a factory reset today since I fly often and don't want to be the guy turning on all the radios just so I can use wifi...
Factory reset got it working again, but now I have to restore SMS and redo all my app settings
I use airplane mode everyday in my work while listening to music.
Yesterday my Galaxy A52s had a security update and after that when i turn on airplane mode the bluetooth doesnt open when i click it.
Seems like its crashing because if i click it about 20 times it may open after a while. It only opens instantly if i have my airplane mode disabled.
I also tried resetting my network settings but no luck...
What happened? Anyone had similar problems?
