Re: Can I turn the "phone" off while using TP2 as a wi-fi router?

I'm presuming that airplane mode is not the answer. Thanks all.

Verizon TP2 on stock WM6.1 rom, using the famous XDA internet sharing app.

So you can't turn off the phone radio, but you could turn off the ringer.
as my friend, gsp mentioned. while using your phone for wifi, you are actually using the phone. i'm certainly no genius on these things but i'm thinking that as long as you're using the phone for wifi, it has to be connected to service. thereby making it possible to receive calls.
