[HOW TO]How To Disable SmartSync Using Terminal Emulator | APK Available - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

First off this is very easy and anyone can do it. This is for the people who are running Roms that doesnt have SmartSync disabled
When SmartSync is disabled it will stay disabled after restarts also. So no need to run the commands again after reboots.
Download "Terminal Emulator" from the Play Store and open it
When the app is running enter these commands one after the other
su
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncDataLinkTurnOffReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncScreenOnOffTimeReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this one disables SmartSync in the night time
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSynServiceReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and thats it. your wifi or 3g wont disconnect if your phone goes to sleep anymore.
To re-enable SmartSync simply run the following commands
su

Are the spaces supposed to be in there between SmartSyncDataLinkTu rnOffReceiver and SmartSyncScreenOnOf fTimeReceiver?

i found one more that disables smartsync in the night time too
ill add that to the OP

So I have been playing with app creation, I whipped up a really simple app that will do this. If some one wants to test it. If it works I will adjust the interface and activate it in the market.

So is SmarSync at night not a good thing because it prevents receiving data altogether?

I'll add one last disable command that will disable it in the night time too. It appears there are 2 times it is activated, the night time, and another during the day time

Definitely during the day it should be disabled but Doesn't it make sense to have smartsync at night? (at least for those who do not burn the midnight oil)

even though it doesnt say it would work for the dna and it says root required this apk seems to work for wifi on my droid dna
i would love if i can get 4g not to disconnect to incase im not on wifi at that time
anyone know other ways for this stuff specific to the dna yet? or a way to get 4g to also stay on?

Is this confirmed working on Jelly Bean?

Just sent you an email but I don`t have 4g so it will be tough for me to get the property and test however if you can help me get the prop and test I can try to add it.
if you do a logcat and filter it to only show "SmartSync" and wait until 4g gets disabled you should see something similar to below:
"framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider"
Just send me what you find and I will try to add it.

Try out Samsungs new S Voice app that arrived with the S3

reason i ask is because i saw this on android police...
S-Voice is available as a separate download here, but Samsung's cloud compute server is very picky about who it responds to. The general theory going around is that is only listens to Samsung devices, but you're welcome to try.

heres what i got from AP in the comments section
Guys, for S-Voice to work, you have to place the apk into System/App, use Root Explorer to only check the read permissions, and the top write permission. Reboot your phone, then (THIS IS IMPORTANT TO END FORCE CLOSING) go to the apk within System/App and tap it then install it like a normal app to end the force closing.

unless you are running a rom that supports the menu popping feature than you are out of luck because the S3 has this button so thats why it works like that

Why don't you try what I did just re download the .apk then from where ever your downloads go copy and then paste it into system/app then, afterwards long press the app while still in system/app set permissions to
Rw
R
R
Reboot to get everything sticky
Should work seeing as it is what I did, another thing I'm running a deodexed Rom so that might be your problem.

Using Titanium Backup, remove the IMS Service. That should kill any WiFi calling remaining in your system. Not too sure about the stability you'll get afterwards, as I haven't tested it. Be the first one to try!

Turn on WiFi calling, and if you go in app settings and force stop IMS service, Wi-Fi calling... disappears (until the next reboot I assume)

No personalize button which I use along with no remapable capacitive buttons which was on it but they took it off for this version of sense. No sound enhancer settings on music app. Yep no flash player toggle on browser.
Not trying to *****, just letting you know about this if you didn't know already and hopefully root will happen and a rom with all this stuff will be added.

I started using an app called flashlight LED genius and there is an option that allows you to shake the phone while at the lock screen to enable the flashlight. Then to turn off you simply shake again, you can set sensitivity settings and duration in case it gets turned on accidentally. I have had no issues with it accidentally turning on as of yet. Works surprisingly well.
Wow thanks for that app. useful

I started using an app called flashlight LED genius and there is an option that allows you to shake the phone while at the lock screen to enable the flashlight. Then to turn off you simply shake again, you can set sensitivity settings and duration in case it gets turned on accidentally. I have had no issues with it accidentally turning on as of yet. Works surprisingly well.

Shake on lockscreen option works fine for a while, then stops. Problem is noted in the app description in the Play Store but no ETA on a fix is mentioned. Too bad, when it works it's nice.
Anyone know of another flashlight app that can be reliably activated from the lock screen?

It has only happened to me once, no biggie for me at least as it has worked 99% of the time.

Just found that Tiny Flashlight has shake capability on the lock screen. I'm testing and will report back on reliability.

I use the DashClock lockscreen widget with the DashLight extension, seems to work pretty good for me
Using an app called Torchie, just press both 'volume buttons' together to turn on/off torch anytime. It runs as a background service and just works anytime, even when screen off (if enabled from Torchie Settings). It kinda make your phone feel like a conventional battery operated torch. No root required.
