Re: Change automatical update check interval
 

1. So is there a trick to only perform the update if connected through wifi? Surely, in the actual script that does the updating we could wrap an if around checking whether connected through wifi or mobile internet?

2. Alternatively, if keeping it at 24 hours, then I would need the daily check performed overnight when I am connected through wifi. So I just need to dephase the actual check as it is currently performing at around 10am when I am at work and on mobile internet. If I run the application manager or perform an apt-get update at some time in the night, will this do it, or is the time of last check stored separately?

A solution a la (1) would be preferable. Seems fairly simple, but I don't know how to check the type of internet connection available.

@stochashtic
To reschedule your auto update time just run following command at the desired time:
Where xxxx is time interval till next check in seconds.

PS. I was looking for a way to reschedule auto update, because it slows down my phone in most inconvenient time. Now I have set it to update at 5a.m. when I am usually asleep near my home wi-fi router. The idea actually belongs to another member of this community, but now I can not find the original post to thank him.
