[Request] Airplane/Offline mode button
 
I take the subway all the time, and when I exit the train, It takes almost ten minutes to get my signal back, my solutions are either restarting the phone... or waiting.

However, I have found that by turning on offline mode, and then turning it back off when I step back out, I get my signal back almost immediately (don't laugh at me, I hadn't realized this earlier)

However, going to settings, and airplane mode, is a bit of a pain each time. Therefore, following in the steps of the PSM button, and ScreenLock button, I am requesting an offline mode button.

Pretty Please? Thank you

Good tip and good idea - if someone develops and throws it up on the app store I'll buy it.

Absolutely Perfect! Thank you very much. Honestly couldn't ask for more.

Recommend you upload it to Apps for Meego and OVI store so everyone can enjoy.

WLAN stays connected. This would be useful if only worked in the same way device's native "flight mode" does.

It would be more proper to place it in the profiles menu really (which lets selecting silent mode and etc.).

That's very true. Why don't you file a 'bug report' on this? They may officially fix it.

Yes, maybe I used a wrong name for the application.. It only toggles the cellular radio, not other connections.
I think it's not possible to toggle the native flight mode because of aegis, as it's required the token mce::DeviceModeControl which is not available for third party apps.

.
Btw i found this FlighToggle application that should set the native flight mode, but the installation gives the warning "denied 'mce::DeviceModeControl' -- origin does not allow it" and it does not work.
