What's the difference between setting DND overnight versus Airplane mode ? I know that Airplane turns off wifi & bluetooth.

Doing airplane mode you get lesse battery drain. Usually i do that at my work. I work on a factory, so I put my phone and watch in airplane mode. I save some juice.
Has um not near the two of them... So that's OK for me when I go home. Turn everything normal again.
Thanks. I set auto Airplane for when I am asleep as I noticed that I was getting draining using DND.

When you turn flight mode on and then later turn it back off, the bluetooth functionality doesn't appear to work. Its turned on, but when a call comes through it doesn't pick up. Does anyone else have thise problem with the XDA2? Is it yet another 'feature'?
Exactly the same on the MDA2.
BT is ON, but the BT headset mode remains disabled, so each time you switch off the flight mode, you have to turn on the headset mode. Really stupid IMHO.
I don't think this is a "problem" or a bug.
Turning on flight mode means there should not be any Radio activity. Therefore BT Radio will be turned off as well. It makes sense.
It remembers your last BT Radio selection though. So, when the flight mode is off, BT Radio mode will resume like it was before flight mode, that is either OFF, ON or DISCOERABLE. The only thing that it doesn't remember is which profile was enabled. So you'll have to enable it when flight mode is off.

This is exactly what we were talking about...or at least is what I was TRYING to explain...IMHO is very stupid that it does not remember the profile that was enables, this means that every time we have to turn on the profile again...
Is it that when Flight Mode(phone) is switched ON, the bluetooth won't work.

well i would suppose so since places like in planes and on some hospitals where they fear interfearence from wireless devices like cellphones they see bluetooth the same way
i suppose that it should turn wifi off aswell
but what they are talking about is that when you turn flight mode back on the bluetooth stack dont recall some of it's settings
Cheers for the reply, forgive me if this sounds stupid but to re-enable the bluetooth profile after switching flight mode back off, do you use Ultra Profile or is it done some other way?
I had my DNA faced down before I fell asleep, and when I woke up just now, the phone was on airplane mode. I checked the battery usage chart and found out the phone went into airplane mode after 30 minutes of being idle. I had to manually turn off the airplane mode.
I never used HTC products before so I do not know if this is a feature of the Sense...but surely I don't want it as I receive international calls often. However, I could not find any options for turning this off.
Does anyone know if the scheduled airplane mode was automatically activated because I put the phone faced down? The other nights previously had no such thing done on my phone

That is an anomaly my friend. I've never seen this happen on any HTC phone I've owned.

Strange things happen at night/early morning. My wifi went AWOL.

The fact that network connection was in tact, it seems like wifi auto sleep but I can't be sure.
But as for my phone, it was on airplane mode automatically, so I will test my phone under the same conditions tonight to confirm my speculation
If the DNA does have a scheduled/sensor auto airplane mode feature or perhaps a deep idle, I am not sure of why HTC did not include an option to turn that off in the settings...

I would hope its not an auto-off on wifi because I have it set to always be on even with screen off. Also, if it turns off, it sets LTE to active and thats an issue.
It's HTC SmartSync Power Save http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708492. Unfornately this app doesn't work JB Sense... anyone with smali coding skills can try to code it for JB.
WiFi and 3G/LTE will disconnect from 12-7am to save battery life when screen off its a built in feature by HTC however it shoukdnt go into airplane mode

I tested my phone under the same conditions, and it did go into airplane mode exaclty after 30 minutes of facing down. So I guess that Smartsync is back on the DNA?...I found several scripts relating to powersaving in sys, so maybe disabling some of them will remove the auto airplane mode or whatever it does...

Smartsync isn't putting it in airplane mode.
I put my phone upside down smartsync hours and left it for hours. I can confirm loss of WiFi but no network signal.
I don't know why does my phone go to airplane mode automatically when signal is poor? The problem is that It doesn't turn off airplane mode when signal becomes strong again.
Can anyone help me?
There is a lot actually, i have used one before. Works good.

I was going to try and post in devoper section, but I can't yet. I have an issue with battery usage, where I work, inside at least, the cell service is bad. I was wondering if anyone has heard of or can even make an app that would automate the airplane mode, while maintaining wifi.
I was thinking if there was no service for more than a certain time, it automatically enable airplane mode and re-enable the wifi, until it is manually turned off, maybe by a widget. If anyone has any knowledge of this, please give me an idea, I'm using 60% of my battery just searching for service.
I am rooted running hyperdrive rls14.
Airplane mode automatically disables all wireless services. Why don't you just disable mobile data when you get to work? You'll still be able to receive text messages.
Also, for future reference, the developer's section isn't for questions, but a place for developers to share their work. This thread should really be in Q&A.

I have a similar issue with where I work. However, I just turn on airplane mode and then turn on wifi. You can have wifi on while being in airplane mode. It is just two or three button presses, so I don't think it is that big of an issue. When you leave your job, just turn airplane mode off...
Phoneweaver
That's your answer. Set up a profile to turn on airplane mode and wifi at whatever time you want. Set up other profiles as you like. It will launch apps, toggle GPS (if you have secholeutils), mobile data on/off, volume levels, change ring tones, notification tones... pretty much anything you want.
You can always use NFC to trigger it too. I have a NFC tag on my desk at work the puts my phone into "work mode"
Hi,
When I turn flight mode ON, I really meaning, I don't want any radio working.
BUT there are a few apps that don't care that you are in fligtht mode and turn Wifi on automatically
Is there a way to avoid that?
