turning off the XDA EXEC

Hello
How does ont turn off the XDA EXEC, i dont see any off button. the power button just turns the screen backlight on and off.
the reason why i wanted to know what it was is because i am porting my number across networks, and 02 told me to turn off my phone a number of times during the day, so that it could go into a boot up process.
There is no real way to trurn the device off, but what they will be wanting you to do is disable the phone section (do this by turning on flight mode, or by clicking on the green connections manager in the bottom and click on the phone button. Click the phone button again to turn it on.)
Start -> Programs - Wireless Manager -> All Off (This switches of the phone.
Then use the phone on/off button at the top of the screen there, to switch it back on and force your SIM to re-register with the network, which should have the desired effect your after.
Taking out the battery is the only real 'off' button.
thanks for the replies dudes
did you try holding the power button as well? that works on my wizard
not sure if it's true for all wm5 though
i held the power down button for some time and it blanked teh screen. when i held the power button again for a few seconds the screen came back to life, but this time there is no "back light(?)"
how do i get back the "back light(?)"

There remains a bug, it seems, that sometimes prevents the backlight from firing up when starting the device.
It used to happen on my XDA2i and still happens on my Exec.
I usually have to get it in a good light and go to settings and move the brightness slider to get it working.
Turning off the device, I find, is actually achieved by pressing the power switch before closing lid.
I find I get much more out of each charge if I do this rather than just close the lid.
That of course turns of the PDA functionality of the device. The radio (phone) service is still disabled via Flight Mode.
:wink:
somehow i double posted...sry
thanks for the reply
i guess by pressing the power button, the pda goes ito some sort of sleep mode, since it does not boot up later, correct?
when it is charging up using a usb cable connected to my pc, the backlight is turned of, and no amount of pressing buttons seems to turn on the backlight, is that correct?
i checked out the brightness level sliders, there are 2, the
1. on battery which is somewhere in between
2. on power which is "slided" to the left, is that its correct position?
you will probably find it will selfboot at midnight.. this appears to have been intentional in the design of all the XDA's.
Thia can be a nuisance but it is probably to do with reseting timers. alarms etc
The backlight is configured to be on/off during external power and on battery in which ever setup you choose.
The actual levels you set it at are your choice ..
I set mine to be off after 5 mins on external power i.e. when charging except when i use tomtom and want it to stay on whilst externally powered.
On these occasions I change the setting before the journey
Your original question with reference to O2 making changes that required you phone to be off, in my experience, means not having the O2 sim in the device.
thanks for the reply dude
i think my questions have exceeded the remit of this thread. i will start another thread for the backlight questions

Toggle Screen/Backlight Application

I am looking for a stand-alone application which will toggle the screen and backlight which I can link to one of the buttons on my M700
Background: I am using the GPS for tracking on my phone. When I turn on the GPS & Logging I then turn the screen off using a short-cut from Pocket Power Manager.
Normally I would have to use the power button on the phone to bring the screen back BUT this disconnects the GPS so screws up and logs I am writing so looking to find an app which will purely turn the screen on (using remote control apps i can see with the screen off everything is still running there as normal)
have you tried holding the power button for 2-3 seconds?
in my htc universal it toggles the backlight off & back on again, without going into standby.
Mine doesn't seem to do that. Well it turns the screen back on but it also disconnects the GPS at the same time.

Cyanogenmod 7 annoying bug-volume rocker keys wake screen when not wanted-CM6 problem

Ok guys.
I have a seriously annoying problem that has been here since CM6, at least since I started running it in late January, and is still
in CM7. Whenever you're listening to music, and have a screen lock delay (mine is set to 1 minute) whenever you press one of the
volume keys to adjust the volume the screen turns on. Yes, I have volume rocker wake unchecked in settings. This only happens during
the 1 minute time though, after it locks then the screen doesn't turn on. So if I had screen lock delay set at 5 minutes the volume
keys would continue to turn on the screen for 5 minutes until the lock activated. This happens if you have a lock delay, if you don't
then they never turn on the screen (unless you have it enabled in settings or you press one immediately after the screen turns off.)
If you have no lock/protection then this doesn't happen either, but if you have a delay it does. Please help, this wastes battery
life and is very annoying.

[Q] Bug or Defect?

I have encountered some strange issues with Galaxy R during the past few days. The first issue is when I plug in my headphones when the phone is idle (i.e. screen off) the menu key often fails to wake it up. Only the power button wakes it up. Sometimes, it wakes up but after a greater than normal delay This happens only when earbuds are inserted when screen is off.
Secondly, sometimes my touch screen and capacitive buttons loose their sensitivity for a couple of seconds (say about 10 seconds) and then come back to normal. The menu and power button works fine but the touch controls are lost.
Has any of you encountered the same? Please comment. Thank you!
Mine Galaxy R doesn't have any of this. I'm on 2.3.4 and you? I think its a defect. And where you wrote this:

I think that is normal because you cant unlock the phone by using the back or menu button.
