Hi,
I just bought one and its great.
i have some issues with the WIFI connection.
I would like it to ONLY use WIFI at home and not some 3g or GPRS cause it takes money and a already have a wifi connection, why not use it ?
1. Can someone tell me how or what program to use to set up in the phone to use ONLY WIFI connection ?
2. Is it possible to connect to WIFI whenever like say the weather app wants to update and then close the wifi for itself to save some battery ?'
Or do i have to keep the WIFI on, all day ?
Thanks for your help
Look for NoData from Modaco.
You can disable the providers internet access.
Wifi will still be available.
The programs will use any connection possible, so if Wifi is the only connection, they'll use that connection.
Wifi is also the preferred connection when both are accessable.
To close the wifi you'll have to do this manually I'm afraid.
in wifi settings you can change power save mode to minimize power consumption.
G-Profile can help you. Depending on the location or hour of day it can switch between 3g and wifi. It has a ton of options.
Check it out.
Hi,
I've searched for this but can't found anything that matched with my problem :-(
I have a HTC Desire ( with 2.3.3 ) and a Iconia Tab ( with 3.2 ) and i want to use 3G connection of the Desire for my Iconia but only if i had no wifi signal.
If I'm at home i have wifi on both devices so the Desire don't need to turn on wifi tethering.
But if i leave my home i had to turn on Wifi tethering manually so i have inet on my iconia. Is there a app or a workaround to do this automatically ?
For Example :
If wifi unavailable or not connected - turn on wifi tethering
If wifi available - turn off wifi tethering and connect to wifi
Thanks in advance

U can try Tasker from the market..its a paid app..(or a similar app)
U can try setting a task to autoswitch on/off the wifi tethering based on the wifi state

Hi,
I've tried Tasker... The problem is that WIFI is disabled when Tethering is active, so there is no way to check if wifi is near to my phone :-( Or I'm doing something wrong?
I was wondering if it's possible to create an app or integrate into wifi tether, for a user to connect to your wifi tether and once they connect they will be redirected to a link you prefer.
I'm using Task650's ROM and it has the feature to set the phone as a hotspot but it will switch the wifi off on my phone. I'd like to be able to use wifi when needed. Is that possible?
Ive searched the web and read about countless issues about lollipop wifi. but im looking for something specific which i cannot find elsewhere:
on KitKat when connecting to a hotspot (or any wifi for that matter) it would instantly connect to wifi and switch to that connection, regardless if the connection gave internet access or not.
on LP it seems to remain connected to mobile data and wifi does not give an IP address until a hotspot is logged in (using the sign in to wifi notification)
the problem is it doesnt always show, is there a way to switch the wifi policy to not perform a soft handover? or does this need to be baked into a rom?
I have an app that auto-logs into wifi hotspots for me, but because it does not get an IP address and apps are not able to use that connection, it does not work as intended.
FYI i am NOT talking about wifi to mobile data handover, its the other way around
