Re: Recommendations for Android based AT&T phone

No idea but I keep wi-fi off unless I need it.

Maybe we should write one?

Subject: Re: [PCTECH] Recommendations for Android based AT&T phone

Along those lines my wife's Samsung Epic seems to drain a lot during the
day
when she's at work. Right now we're working the assumption that it's
the
WiFi. She doesn't have a WAP she can connect to when at work but there
are
WAPs available. So the phone is apparently always trying to talk to the
available WAP. At home it connects to our WiFi no problems.

So for the moment I've told her to turn off WiFi when she gets to work &
turn it back on when she gets home. Not sure if she'll do it or not.
If
she does then we should know in a few days if the battery "mystery" is
solved.

Is there an Android app that'll let us schedule hours for turning WiFi
on &
off? It'd be good to automate that.
