biggest battery hog, which do you guys think kills battery more having the wifi on and connected or having the bluetooth on and connected? trying to figure out best way to save battery througout the night but with keeping watch on for time since i do not have an alarm clock next to bed and dont feel like rolling over to look at the phone all the time. but like to have watch bluetooth connected to phone with swapps link incase an important call comes in while im sleeping.

If i had a sim in the watch at one point but am now using the bluetooth rom if i turn off the sim card since its not detected anyway would that help with the battery life issue?

Would love to setup a tasker profile to auto shut off either bluetooth or wifi just not sure which is killing more battery.

Thanks,

There's ap App called Llama, not sure if it'll work on the Omate.

Try it out it does all sorts of tasker type stuff.
Llama works fine on the TS
I use it to deactivate wifi when leaving home and set wifi policy to turn off shortly after screen is off.

However, leaving wifi on is not draining much, I have borrowed one it is on for many days when not used. Not sure about BT.
(Using Loki's tweaks.)

What drains the battery is using any radio or the GPS and of course the screen, so deactivating sync is helping.

Will be sure to disable the gps hopefully that helps turned off SIM card slot also. What's the difference between this llama app and tasker? Is it smaller or something? I use tasker on my watch and it runs awesome.

sent from my note 3 running beans.
