Look for app "stay awake" in the market.

What is the purpose of staying awake?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
probably to stop the screen from turning off while you're using the phone when it's plugged in.
It also seems useful when reading stuff online. There are so many times when I'm reading a really long article or something and since I'm a slow reader I have to keep slowly scrolling down the page every time the screen dims to make sure it doesn't turn off.
Yeah. I like the screen automatically cutting off sometimes, but when I'm reading stuff and I just happen to not read as fast as Samsung wants me to... poof... a black abyss.

I need something that will cycle the wifi on my phone on and off at either set times or on a timer. I didn't notice anything in the market for this. Does this exist anywhere?

Ah cool I think this will work nicely. Thanks, didn't think about an automation app.

How would I go about setting a check that would make sure the wifi radio is turned on every fifteen minutes. I need to keep it on even if someone turns it off. I think I have a profile set up to do this, but it only turns it on once. When I turn it off manually tasker never turns it back on. This task stuff is warping my mind haha.

My screen stays lit all the time regardless of which time out setting I have set. I do not have thestay awake while charging box checked under applications>>development.
Any ideas??
Thanks for looking.

this has been happening to me on different roms. Looks like that DoubleTwist Air Sync is causing my screen to stay on. It only happens when i get home.

But they say
Turning On USB debugging actually saves juice, that's right turning it ON.

Don't worry if you sit beside me, you will look like a troll.
Kidding aside I read this and 11 comments were " yes I tried it and it improve the battery ", but me personally I don't know, here is the explanation from guy who said it, I will not argue with him because I haven't tested it. :
"If u turn the usb debugging off, the /init process run at background will be more than 70%. This will kill your battery life and also make your device lag. Turning it on will save juice on your battery."
I have no idea what he means.

Wait so leaving debugging on will turn off a specific background process which in turn increases battery life? Sounds backwards.

This was for the HTC desire. searching that model and "save battery" will probably turn up the relevant issue. I don't know if it was a real bug in the software or just the usual "here's how to save your battery" trolling for google hits on some site...
But in any case, it should not apply to this phone.
I use the widget to turn data off while not using phone to save battery but it never disables data when it says mobile data off. Anyone know how to because I want my battery life to last longer.
Thanks

Search is your friend. As this is an APP, you might find info in the Apps thread...

To save time, its a known issue after the update. Developer is working on a fix... but don't hold your breath.
But it was a QUESTION ****. Back off, people are getting ruder everyday in this forum.

Any way to disable all radios other than bluetooth/wifi, so I can turn my phone into pretty much just an mp3/video player? Just got the LGOG, and this thing's battery dies even without use. If I take it off the charger, 12 hours later it's nearly dead just idling.
Turn airplane mode on and then turn WiFi back on. Maybe go back to gingerbread so you can watch YouTube with the the screen off.

Depending on the rom, you may be able to turn just the Data off by using the quick panel or the power button.

If you only want WiFi and BT, can't you just remove the sim card?
