That disables 3G when screen is off??.
Cheers guys
There is, but needs root. It's the "intelli3g" app. Gotta love that app.
Go to settings and select the auto battery save mode, wifi or 3g service will be auto turned off when the phone is in sleep mode minutes later.

Are you talking about the lg battery saver mode? Because if your are that is false information.

A friend of mine told me that iPhone has something like sleep mode where it almost turns off the phone to increase battery life. Does desire/android have this functionality too? If no, has someone tried to insert the sleep mode into the kernel? Are there any H/W limitations?
I guess the Airplane mode on the desire is similar like the one you're talking about on the iPhone. Don't know exactly, never had an iPhone.
If you click the little black button atop of your device it'll go into "sleep mode"
It uses less resources and spare the battery.. true story ;D
I have a desire. What do you mean? Was that a joke?
I think he wasnt joking.
When you lock your phone by pressing the top button, the arm cpu actually clocks down to (erm...?! somethin lower then 1ghz). This is the Sleep mode you might ment.
You can "check" this for example if you transfer a file over wlan to your phone with swiftftp (a App, that enables a FTP Server on your Phone) an look at your transfer rates. When your Phone is active the rate is very high, but when you lock it, it drops. That is due to the downclocked snapdragon.
To addition: There are some Mods/Kernels out there that clocks the cpu even lower than HTC designed it(or does Arm designed the clock settings?)
Anyway, i hope i could help und you can understand me (i am german )

Welcome to the forum,
no this is not sleep mode. On lock it goes down to 245Mhz, but it doesn't go sleep. On sleep mode it would take weeks to empty the battery. It would také a sec to wale up to také call and gsm module would be on just for a while. That's how it'e behave on sleep mode.
i know what you mean about the iphone/ipod sleep
if i put my ipod to sleep the battery actually doesnt drain, not at all
it would last forever
i guess this cant be done with phones as its always looking for phone calls and texts etc
then again the iphone doesnt last long so maybe htc are using the best they can?

No. Airplane mode & locked (screen off). That's it.
airplane mode = no GSM? Well, still cool!

Airplane mode = No wireless communications.
= no wifi and no bluetooth and no gps and no GPRS and no EDGE but GSM?
NO wireless connection. 100% offline
airplane mode = isolated device, so no signal will come from or too the device.
Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
!?
hey, huh!!!
well... could be obvious, it turns off the sim card/GSM module. when you turn off airplane mode it asks for pin code

The point of the screenshot was to illustrate that you can use WiFi with APM enabled.

Just thought I would post some of my tasker setup to make my battery last a very long time!
First you need Tasker
You also need Secure Settings
And lastly you need Synker
if you want to make my settings super easy to install just download the two attached files and place them on the Sdcard in the Tasker folder.
userbackup.xml
userbackup.xml.txt
then start Tasker, click on the menu button and select Data then restore. This will place all my prebuilt settings in for you.
The first profile I have is Mobile. I have this profile made for when I am in my car but its settings are for anytime power is plugged in.
The things it does is: Turn on GPS, Turn off auto brightness, turn display brightness to max, turn auto sync on, turn media volume to full, turn display time out to one hour.
When unplugged from power it does the following: Turn off GPS, display turns off after 30 seconds, Auto brightness on, Auto sync off, wifi off.
The next setting turns on GPS automatically once maps or navigation is started then turns it off once you exit those apps.
The next one is the big battery saver! When the display is off it Turns off mobile data and wifi.
When the display turns on it will wait five seconds and then turn on mobile data.
lastly I have it setup to turn on mobile data every 2 hours and sync gmail then turn mobile data back off.
I have had tasker for a long time but never really dug into it until I got the SG2. I think this will make your battery last much much longer.
If anyone has better suggestions please add your input.

i have the same setup but use juice defender to do the same thing as tasker and synker. it can actually more, like sync more or less at certain times of the day. but i've been thinking about switching to tasker, might be more battery efficient.
i'm using secure settings to turn gps on\off too, based on what applications get run. i noticed the little tray icon only turns on when an app is actively using the gps tho. does that mean gps only uses battery when actually in use? but it seems like i get more battery with it turned off completely.
for mobile, i'm going to attach gps to my car's nfc sticker instead of when plugged in. might be a little faster for charging at home.
i guess you could use secure settings and tasker to only turn nfc on at the lockscreen. although i'm not convinced nfc uses much battery.
lets see... i'm also using tasker to immediately turn off the display if upside down (in my pocket).
it turns data off if i'm reading an ebook or watching a video.
i use it for 1 click switching between 2g and 4g.
i use it to switch cpu max between 192000, 918000, and 1728000. you can get crazy battery life by running 192000 all day, but everything will run slow. usually i keep it at 918000 and play games at 172800.
there are lots of other things, but that's the battery stuff.

Hey ,I just wanna say thanks I was getting 8 hours on a Verizon extended battery but now using your settings and tasker plus extra apps I'm getting 14 to 15 ,I just wanted to add that it in order to use secure setting you have to root your phone but it worth it.

Do you still have these backup files? The links are dead when I try them. I would like to try out your settings.
Reupload please

First post and it's a necro asking for something. I swear I used to have an account here in high school.
Anyway, I think those files are gone. Every time I come back to Tasker I try to start from the group up and a day later I'm fiending for backup.xmls/txt just whatever you use for your battery, please, just a quick string of code.

Untick the wifi option in power saver menu..
Or simply run always Power-Saving mode with everything on
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 know there is an option to enable this feature in dev mode however I dont have it on and I have disabled dev mode anyway but still having this problem. Phone will not go to sleep while charging. Is there a setting to disable this feature?
Do you mean that the display won't switch off while charging?

Meaning screen wont go off during charge. However I factory reset these phone and it fixed a bunch of issues lmao. Now I can go on airplane mode and wifi at the same time as well
Yes, here the same at original 7.0 ROM... But I haven't tried a reset until now.
