Hi all
I have a very poor phone signal where i live (sometimes no signal at all) yet i have a wireless network access.
I'm looking for a way to turn off the phone from the status bar yet keep the wireless capabilities (that's why offline mode is no good - turns off both).
this will greatly increase my battery life yet keep me connected to the internet where most of my communication happens anyway.

I found the app Wifi Switcher which was very useful but turns off the wireless rather than the cellular network.
Does anyone know anything similar that suites these needs ?

Thanks !

There is an app (I forget the name) that adds "tablet mode" button to power menu that does exactly this, should be easy to recognize when you browse the app list.

Edit: here it is http://maemo.org/downloads/product/M...cell-modem-ui/
