hello folks.after installing auto wifi disconnect i get an idea.
is there an app that auto shuts off my n900?
for example it shuts the device off at 01:00 am and starts it at 08:00 am?
and should it be better for the battery?(reboot drains much the battery)
and could such a app remind my pin and password to start my phone without my help?
i would be very interested in a such app hope you guys have any ideas.

To shut down on a schedule you could use fcron:

As for starting back up, well I've heard the N900 will power back up to ring an alarm if one is set.

the alarm only wakes it up to make the sound, as soon as u press snooze or stop the phone goes back to sleep. you still need to power it up manually.

I think rebooting the device at 8am will probably drain enough power to cancel out any benefit of having it shut for the 7 hours you are asleep.

Good idea though.

you can do it in xterminal if you know how to use it.
and why you put password if you want to be reminded automatically?

thanks dude but im looking for a app with UI.
i had such a app on a older phone but dont remember the name.
somethink like auto wifi disconnect would be great where i have some config options.

i have the password enabled because you can start the device without a sim card and till you dont have the options to lock the phone for only one sim it would me make very nervous incase my phone gets lost.i have 5 gb of pics

thanks you i thought that too so maybe just idle would be better for the battery....
