Just wondering how you go about turning OFF all data connection (eg WiFi and 3G) without having to deactivate a screen/homepage?
For example, having the Facebook widgit and Weather widgit on the screens and also having regular Exchange downloads (say every hour)?

If I disconnect the WiFi and 3G (or change phone mode to 2G), eventually it will reconnect to either WiFi or 3G/2G data connections whilst out and about. This is fine when it's synching with Exchange, but surley it should then automatically disconnect itself from the data network?


Am I missing something?
This is all in the name of enhancing battery life, may I add!!!

I've asked for automatic disconnection after a finished session before but it doesn't seem to be available.

If you set your phone to 'always ask for connection' and turn the wifi-interval off, you shouldn't have this anymore, I hope.

when i push the power button i get an option to switch to "offline mode".

Offline is fine but will switch the phone off so you wont be able to make or receive calls, just use the Maemo OS itself.
