problem with switching flight mode

[zhenius]

i sometimes press the flight mode accidentally and want to change it back, but it seems that the BA gets stuck on flight mode, so i just soft reset to fix it. how can i switch off flight mode without having to soft reset all the time? any simpler solution?:confused:

[krishan2207]

use this application

1. extract the zip.
2. put the flightmode.exe in windows folder.
3. put the shortcutflightmode.lnk in programs folder.

thnx.;) but which programs folder do you mean? there is nothing in \windows\programs.

edit: i tried the flightmode.exe file and placed it in \windows but i still cant switch off flight mode after switching it on. what am i doing wrong?

dear .exe is an application u can run it from anywhere. for ur ease i hv created a shortcut .lnk file which u can place in windows/startmenu/program so u can run it easily.

i think zhenius is talking about the .lnk that has to be
in the \Windows\Start Menu\Programs not in \Windows\Programs

and yes... the .exe doesnt seem to work all the time to turn on the phone "sometimes" -- sometimes it work, sometimes it doesnt.

but it never fails to turn it off. :D

silversamurai, pinoy ka pala.:D anyway, actually, turning the phone off is not a problem, i do it a lot of times in a day anyway, but i jst wanna minimize it by at least having a fix to the flight mode problem. help very much appreciated.

yup. pinoy to pre.

i may not know the innards of the FlightMode switiching but one thing is for certain. it doesnt have a loop inside to determine whether the phone is on or off... i tried turning on the bluetooth and when i did the flightmode toggle "on/off" it successively turned itself (the bluetooth) on/off too... leaving the phone still off.

that's why im searching for a phone module diagnostic program... i want to know what makes the phone tick :D

i think i bought a "GSM" phone, ;) zhenius... it may have been blocked by the NTC, because i cant get any signal from any network, i know the phone is working because it's scanning for half of it's on time, im going back to GH tommorow to have it swapped back or get my P9,000($200)...

i guess i'll have to live with the flight mode problem for now. i'll just be more carefull in commmanager.

haha ang malas mo naman. but have you looked in the forums if there is a way to fix that? maybe its just a signal problem or you installed something?:cool:

[sunish]

turn off the flight mode... turn on the bluetooth.. then turn on the phone and turn off bluetooth

Hello, I too had the Flight mode problem. I eventually hard reset/formatted my Angel and reinstalled Helmi ROM (not from backup) and this solved it. It works all the time now. I also upgraded to 1.15 radio before the hard reset, but this did not fix the issue. The truth is I had installed a lot of rubbish on it and this may have caused the problem. On this install I limited myself to using the cabs that were listed in the WIKI.

Hope this helps, it's a pain to hard reset but if you use the flight mode a lot, it's worth it.

i dont wanna do a hard reset again. did it a couple of times already. i'd stick to soft resetting for now.:p thnx anyway.:)
