Why someone need an app to just turn off sync and 3G?? The toggles are just a swipe away on a pulldown notification bar….

That’s cool…I left my DNA on 4G for about 6 hrs last night and it dropped 2%

I’ve been using ZDBox to do this for years, just set a do-not-disturb profile to put the phone in airplane mode from 11:00 to 5:00, my phone loses almost no battery overnight as a result.

A number of reasons, you may not need to charge the phone every day (I typically get a bit over 2 days on a charge) also charge/discharge cycles will wear out the battery prematurely which is especially a problem if you buy a phone with a non-replaceable battery like a recent HTC phone or something like the Droid RAZR series..

I use Tasker…

9:00pm shut off BT (in case I left it on from day use)
10:30pm shut off sync
10:30pm shut off wifi (if it is on)
11:59pm-5am – put in airplane mode

Because I have a Razr Maxx and only have to charge it every other day.

Your phone’s alarm will still work even if your device is powered off. At least it worked powered off on my motorola D1 and Gnex. I’m curious if your alarm will still work though with this app that force sleeps the ui.

but it’s really not going to make any discernible difference over normal battery wear over the course of 1-2 years.… http://youtubeGoogleAmericanJob.qr.net/jVwS/watch?v=lQPBSI0W9o4R

too bad the UI looks like it was beat with a ugly stick.. would look much nicer with Halo UI IMO. Oh well, guess it’s function isn’t to look pretty.

I don’t. I like to see how much my kernel drains the battery…then again, running a custom rom

Very true, but is it better to have your battery decrease by 10-50% over the course of the time that you’re asleep or spend $5 on an alarm clock? Now I’m just busting balls lol
