Easy Bluetooth/Wifi Toggle Apps

**stevedog1** · #1 (**permalink**) 12-18-2008, 03:27 AM

Since I got my Diamond last week I found it very complicated to Toggle my bluetooth and wifi on/off as I needed to. So I found these programs, and added them to my Start Menu so that I can easily turn BT or WIFI on/off.

I hope other new Diamond/Pro users find these useful. Here are the apps:

lol......thanks, and yeah, I thought I'd switch it up..lol. As far as the app goes, yes, I've been using them for about a week, and it makes turning BT/Wifi on/off a 1 sec task with no conflicts or problems whatsoever. Let me know what you think.

Of course. Anytime.

I think s2u2 looks, and works great but I personally do not use it only because I find it easier/simpler to just use the power button.

I am currently looking for some sort of light sensor app that will shut off the screen when the phone is up to your ear. Do you know of one?

Once I find something I'll be sure to post it as well in case others are interested. Same goes for any other good apps I might stumble upon.

Yes. I found it on www.freewarepocketpc.net. I haven't had enough time to really fiddle with it yet. You?

For others reading and interested here is the cab for that as well:

hi...

thanks for the info on the bt and wifi toggle apps... 4yr palm user, just bought a touch pro two days back and toggling these two was driving me nuts!

one small question though.. how do you add the bt toggle app to the start menu? had no problem with the wifi app, but the bt app is an .exe and doesn't show in the programs list... actually even the wifi app doesn't show up in the programs list either. also, the lumos app doesn't work.. gives an error message.

any info on how to get it done would be highly appreciated.. thanks.
