First off thanks for taking the time to even read this. I'm giving my 4 boys mint bad esn Sprint S3's for Christmas. I want them to be wifi only. I have updated them to ND8, Rooted, installed Busybox, init.d, debloat and deknox. Next once I figure out the name will remove phone.apk,contacts.apk and mms?
Its either this or 4 new 64gb Ipod 5's and I'm not paying that much for something I can't upgrade. Like the less than 2yr old outdated Ipod 4's they have now. All app's and instructions for Wifi only are for pre-4.4.2. I need a way to kill the radio on the the phone at boot or kill it permanently to extend battery life.
I have tried making a init.d script to set "radiooption 1" but it doesn't work.
I have mounted system as su in terminal and tried to force radio off and it replies access denied
I'm at a loss after 14hrs of trying I NEED HELP PLEASE.
IF I cant get radio off i want to make a script to turn on airplane mode then turn on wifi. I know i can do it manually but that is not how the wife wants.

Ok so I found this question interesting and figured I would dig a little. Check /system/lib/libsec-ril If you have libsec-ril rename that file libsec-ril.bak. This should solve your issue.

Thank you very much. This seems to have solved my issue. With this, Xposed modules and a few other tweeks I almost have four 4.8" Samsung Galaxy media devices.
