Overview Android Apps



Task Killer
In short: There is no need for a task killer on android. I'm not going into details, but the developer docs explain the life cycle of an application or more technically speaking an activity. If you think you have to use one, exclude this app from it or you will definitely run into problems as the app sits in the background and waits for certain events to happen. Even if you kill it, the android os will restart it again. Also any questions about task killers and my app will be ignored. If you do not agree with this, please deinstall the app. For more information, some selected links:

Activate Auto WiFi
Enable or disable the app.

Wait time after lock
The time in seconds the app will wait until WiFi is disabled, after the screen is switched off or locked. A value of 0 will cause WiFi to be disabled immediately.

Wait time after unlock
The time in seconds the app will wait until WiFi is enabled, after the screen is switched on or unlocked. A value of 0 will cause WiFi to be enabled immediately.

Enable Periodic WiFi
If enabled Auto Wifi will wake up periodically, switch on WiFi and after the given minutes switch it off again. This is implemented via alarms so there is no worry about battery life.

Temporarily Activate Mobile Data
When you tap on the 'Start' button a mobile data connection will be established. It will last until you tap the 'Stop' button (The 'Start' button will change to 'Stop' when you tap it.) or if the time span that you entered in the text field has passed. You will see a count down timer while the mobile data connection is active. Even if you close the app, the timer will keep running and disable the data connection after the time span you entered has passed.
This function is useful if you do not have a data plan or only a limited data plan. It allows the phone to sync e-mails, contacts, calenders and what else there is to sync.
Remember to turn on Settings -> Accounts & Sync. -> Auto-sync

Optionsmenu - Log
Open the log. It will display every state change of Wifi and GSM/ UMTS and whether it was done by the Auto WiFi app or by the user. The list enables you to track exactly what happens with your connections. The list will update in real time. A context menu will open, when you tap on an entry. You can then delete a single entry. You will be asked to confirm the deletion of the entry.
The capacity of the log is limited to 500 entries. If the capacity is exhausted, the oldest entry will be deleted.

List of the entries and the possible values:
  1. Timestamp - the time when the event occured
  2. Source - either Auto WiFi or User
  3. Service - WiFi or GSM/UMTS
  4. Action
  5. Comment - further information like Access Point name and IP and more

Optionsmenu - Log - Delete All
Delete all entries in the log. You will be asked to confirm the deletion of all entries.

Optionsmenu - Log - Export All
The log information will be exported to directory 'de.soldo.autowifi/log/' on the sd card. If no sd card is inserted, the export will fail.
Two files will be exported: a .csv file and a .sqlite. The .sqlite file is an exact copy of the database the app uses.
