Hey is there any Possibilty to force GPS to turn off or to disable it completly? My tablet seems to have a little bug and i can´t turn off GPS, the switch will just go back to ON and to High accuracy.
i wouldn´t care if GPS would be disbaled completly as long as my battery won´t die so fast....
Hope somebody can help.

Is there really no option? I even tried GPS.enable=false in build.prob, it's still active....

Anyone tried it ? Or have a similar application ? I want to manage my 3g and wifi on an automated way, I've tried the free version and it looks good so far ..
Is there anyway I can try the pro features before buying it ?
If anyone know a similar application they wanna share ?
Maybe try Y5 battery saver. Turns your wifi automatic on and off!

thanks for the info, wish it had 3G support too..
Any ideas what it does? It runs as a service com.htc.tetheringguard
Just installed the OTA update and noticed this. If you stop the service it doesnt reload unless you open the mobile hotspot app. Think the free hotspot block can be removed by removing the service? That seems way too easy...

It certainly does seem too easy. Brilliant solution if it works though.
Easy test, turn it off, try to use another tethering app.
I am debating between doing and not doing the update because I like the free WiFi hotspot; I can be cheap
Can someone with the update try it?
I tried freezing it with titanium backup Pro, but it just rendered the mobile hotspot inoperable.

Sounds to me like a nice little root job would fix it

If you're already rooted you might as well just use the wireless tether app, or the one built into cm7.

Does the wireless tether app tether 4G or just 3G? Download link anyone?

4G as long as you have 4G available. If you use this version, make sure you select the option in settings for HTC related to the LAN.

There is non app that can "hack" or "crack" an WiFi ap, yet.
Although as the ^^ person suggested, there is an app that has the ordinary pw for many routers

As someone who has hacked both WEP and WPA passwords I can tell you that this is almost impossible on the Android platform. To hack a router you must first put your wireless nic into a promesquios (dammit spelling) mode and then set it to receive packets. Many wireless nics do not support this mode and it would require the dev to develop an app that would recognize the phone, recognize the wifi chip (wireless nic), and then set it to catch packets. I say there is less than a 1% there will be an app that could do this.
The only way I could see this EVER working is if we can boot into a specialized backtrack 5 that can work on our phones. That would require a lot of work though. It took a crazy amount of genius to get Unbuntu running.

Don't forget that the wireless chip mist first support promiousics mode.
And I don't think there's many device chips that gonn support it.
Also think of the battery drain that it would cause. And it might would take a really long time.

Back in the Dinc days I had tasker start the GPS automatically whenever navigation started...but it doesn't look like that is possible with ICS/JB. I'm running beans 9
Does anybody have any idea on how to get this through tasker or other means? Thanks
Personally, I just leave my gps on all the time...
I don't see why Tasker wouldn't work though...

You can use Tasker, but you also need the Secure Settings app with the Root Helper installed in order for 3rd party apps to modify GPS settings. Why Google restricted it like that in Android 3.0+, I'm really not sure...

So do I, there is no reason not to really.
Leaving GPS on doesn't affect battery life enough to even notice.
So at work we have 3 AP's and at home I have 2. I have to disable WiFi and the enable to get it to grab the strongest one. They are all the same SSID's as they are extenders. I have avoid poor connections checked in advanced wifi settings but it doesnt make any difference. Is there an app that can auto do this or something else I can do? Im on latest nightly of CM10.1 Thanks in advance
Of course an app can fix a problem like this. I searched play store and found wifi jumper 0.99€ and smart wifi which is free. Try them out and let us know. Btw and if the paid app isn't much brighter then the free app, you get your money back if you uninstall it in 15 minutes

Thanks for the reply. Unless I am looking at the wrong apps, this is not what I need. I need one to switch from a weaker AP to a stronger AP that is in the same building. Those that you mentioned are "battery saving" apps.
But in both app description says automatically connects to strongest AP. So did you even try out?

For me it automatically switches to the strongest AP. I'm on stock ICS 4.0.4.

Will give the free one a shot
Can you link me the free one please. The one that you said is free is $1.99
Free one didn't work. Sees the ap but doesn't auto switch.
