I have been using Android for several years, but it still amazes me. Today I will tell you about several known and not so much of its features and ways to overcome them.
1. The most famous weirdness of Android is, of course, the spontaneous launch of applications. Why the developers did this, I do not know, but the fact remains: Android spontaneously launches its own programs, even if you never use them. By the way, this "never use" is also a separate moment. Delete preinstalled apps it is impossible, and it is difficult to find a "clean" system, it is rarely released, and the quality of the hardware itself can leave much to be desired. Therefore, you have to put up with a dozen completely unnecessary applications to you.
The only solution I know of is to disable unused programs. This will not free up physical memory, but it will unload RAM and reduce battery consumption. And, of course, the degree of irritation. It is easy to do this: "settings" - "applications" - select the desired (more precisely - not necessary) - "disable".
2.In recent times it has become fashionable to add a mobile module to tablets. You insert a SIM card and you have a ready-made Internet without the need to search for WiFi or connect via Bluetooth to the phone. But not everyone needs the Internet "here and now", so the SIM card slot may be empty. And in this case, a situation that is not entirely obvious to the average person arises: we do not use the mobile module, but it continues to work, consuming several percent of the battery.
This proto is solved by turning on the "Flight" mode.
3. The biggest bewilderment arose when I discovered that 4% of the battery was consumed by the switched off (!) WiFi module. Those. it is off but still consuming power.
Digging into the settings, I found an interesting function: " Allow geolocation service and others google apps search for networks even if the WiFi module is off". By default, this function is enabled. I cannot understand why it is needed in principle, how applications search for networks and what they will do if something suitable is found. Unfortunately, I don’t have free Wi-Fi now, I can google how - anything.
To get to the settings, you need to do the following: in the system settings, look for WiFi -\u003e select "Additional functions" in the context menu.
p.s. This problem is specific to individual devices. In particular, having found it on my tablet, I did not find anything similar in the phone.
In general, the implementation of all of the above measures will give the device about 10% of the battery charge. And that's quite a lot - about 2 extra hours a day. So use it, I hope someone will find it useful.
One of the advantages of modern smartphones is the ability to constantly be in touch and quickly solve emerging tasks. And this is not only about mobile communication, but also about the possibility of using the Internet by connecting to wI-FI networks... For a business person, this feature makes a mobile device an indispensable assistant in business.

Uninterrupted connection mobile device to the network is provided by the built-in WI-FI module. In the event of its malfunction, damage or incorrect settings, working on the Internet will be associated with some difficulties.
What does the WI-FI module look like in the phone?
WI-FI module is a built-in device consisting of a board, loop, antenna. During normal operation of the module, the smartphone has uninterrupted access to the Internet, quickly finds and connects to an active network.
However, the user may encounter problems with the device. Connection failures can be related to both softwareand the condition of the equipment.

If the WI-FI phone module does not work
You can determine the reason for the lack of a permanent connection by describing the essence of the problem. A number of symptoms indicate a module malfunction:
- the smartphone catches a weak signal of the WI-FI network, even if you are near the router;
- the smartphone does not detect the desired network;
- the smartphone detects but does not connect to the network (provided that the correct password has been entered).
To eliminate the possibility of software glitches, you can reset your smartphone or flash the device again.
If, after eliminating software errors, resetting general settings and flashing the smartphone, the problem persists, you need to look for a reason related to a technical factor. This means that connection problems mobile phone to the wireless network can be caused by a malfunction of the WI-FI module, damage to its component parts (loop or antenna).
To determine whether the WI-FI module of the phone is really faulty, only complex diagnostics can. To obtain an accurate result and draw up a complete picture of the functionality of the device, you need to contact a specialist in service center... The wizard will identify the most likely causes of the problem and suggest the best solutions.
In most cases, the problem is solved by repairing the WI-FI module of the smartphone or its component parts.
There are also situations in which the device cannot be repaired. So, for example, after significant damage, some elements of the unit may not be repairable. In this case, the master replaces it. The master knows exactly what the WI-FI module looks like in the phone and will be able to quickly select the necessary part.

I already wrote about how to connect a laptop to a wireless network in the article. In it I talked about how to turn on Wi-Fi different ways, considered various problems that might arise. But, I have not yet written about how to turn off Wi-Fi on a laptop. Therefore, now I will write 🙂.
Why actually turn off Wi-Fi? There are different cases. For example, you want to surf the Internet by connecting your laptop via a network cable. And here he also connects to wireless networks, and if he does not connect, then he simply searches for available ones.
And if you are running on battery power, the constant search for available networks will drain it faster. Therefore, it is best to simply turn off the wireless module.
I will tell you how to do this in operating system Windows 7 and Windows 8. I will write on the example of Windows 7, but in the eight everything is exactly the same. You probably tell me, what is there to turn off, there is special buttonsby clicking on which, all wireless networks on the laptop are turned off. Yes, there are such buttons. But they do not always work, and if they do, they do not work as they should.
Here, for example, on laptop Asus... I press the keyboard shortcut Fn + F2 (these keys are used on all Asus laptops)... An icon appears that all wireless networks are disabled. Like this:
And Wi-Fi has worked and continues to work. If you have, for example, lenovo laptop, or Acer, the key combination is different. If I am not mistaken then Fn + F3... The Fn key, and one of the F1, F2 keys ... Usually it has a network icon on it.
I don't know, maybe you need to update the driver, or something. I don't even want to go into this jungle. There is a simpler and more reliable way.
Attention! Found this thing: if you press a key combination that turns off wireless networks (on my Asus laptop, it's Fn + F2), then as I wrote above, nothing happens.
But, if you leave them in the “off” mode, then after the reboot, Wi-Fi does not work. Just a red cross next to the network. Status: “No available connections”. Switching off and on wireless adapter Does not help. You need to run troubleshooting. Perhaps, many people encounter this problem. Tomorrow I will write an article on this problem.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot. It may be that there is a button on the laptop body that is specifically designed to turn on Wi-Fi, well, to turn it off. But on new models, such buttons seem to be no longer available.
Now let's look at a simple and reliable way, I would even say a universal one, with which you can turn off a wireless network connection.
Disable wireless network connection
Right-click on the network icon in the notification bar. We choose Network and Sharing Center (in Windows 8 it's the same).
A window will open in which on the right click on the item Change adapter settings.
That's it, Wi-Fi is off! And the connection status on the notification bar will be something like this (however, if you have connected network cable, then the status will be different):
To turn the wireless network connection back on, just do it the same way, but select Enableand Wi-Fi will work again.
By the way, if you do everything in this way, then even after restarting the laptop, it will not search for networks available for connection.
This method is suitable for any laptop, netbook, or that runs on the operating system Windows 7, or Windows 8. On Windows XP, it is done in much the same way. But, unfortunately, there is no way to show in the screenshots.
