Switching off connections fast (Wifi, 3G, BT, GPS)

Does anybody know of an easy (FAST) way to switch off and on your Wifi, 3G, Bluetooth, GPS connections on the iPhone? I HATE going through all the screens. On top of that they are not all in the same place. Is there an App or something? I cannot seem to find anyhing. or is this improved in iOS5?
Thanks.

I wasn't really trying to switch them all off at once. But sometimes I want to switch off wifi or 3G, depending on the network strength I have. Also for powersave reasons I often switch some of these on or off. And they are just not well placed. For example on the Samsung Galaxy range (android), they are very conveniently put together in one easy accessable area (except for 3G, which is annoying as well). But then again, I love my iPhone and don't want an android ;-)

  • Does anyone know how to switch off the internal wifi test use a wifi dongle at a usb input?

    HI
    I am having problems connecting to wifi with a new Mac.
    I have tried all kinds of things like shifting and monitoring my router's channel.
    Short of using a power cube or crawling under the house and running a cable I have decided perhaps to use a Netgear wifi dongle.
    I would like to switch off the internal wifi and allow the external device to connect.
    With a new machine I really don't see why I have to do this.
    Incidentally all my old devices have no problems with the wifi signal.
    Cheers
    Jack

    Thanks for the suggestions.
    Yes I have done all that was suggested on that site.
    i have also been in contact with Apple Care.
    I have also reset the router firmware.
    I downloaded a piece of software called inSSIDer and checked out other wifi channels in the area. I moved my preferred channel to another ones that looked better however that is back on auto now and the router seems to be picking up channel 6 which is the best one and scores the most points.
    I use a netgear wifi dongle on my 'smart' tv and was thinking of using that however I am beginning to thisk that 'powerline' products may be the answer.
    The Mac is only two weeks old and I seem to be messing about with the wifi connection most of the time.
    I actually cleaned the whole disk and reinstalled the operating system earlier this week.
    Desperate or what!
    Sometimes I think I should just return it but I like to solve problems and will keep going for a while before I lose patience.

  • NW 7.2 Visual Composer - Switch off connection pooling

    Hello,
    I'd like to switch off connection pooling for a VC app running on NW CE 7.2. I found some entries in destination management for my destination system accordingly (pool size, max time .... and an option to switch it off).
    But it doesn't work. Any ideas why not?
    Thanks very much for your help.
    Regards
    Stefan

    Hello,
    thanks for the answer, but it's not working as expected.
    I thought if connection pooling is switched off that the connection is closed when the user logs off or navigates to a different iView (without backend connection).
    This doesn't happen.
    Am I wrong in my understanding?
    Thanks
    Stefan

  • Ipad1 losing wifi connection. Need to switch off/on the wifi in settings to reconnect

    I having problems after updating to 5.1. The wifi continiue working on PCs so no problem  related to the router. The coverage is good. The problem come out every 5-10 minutes. Any problem with 5.1?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
    If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

  • Printer start rebooting in endless sequence, when connecting to Wifi network.

    Suddenly my printer does following procedure:1) action taken: switch on with button => print start booting.2) somethimes message on display "incorrecte uitschakeling" (= Dutch), tanslated ' incorrect switch-off', plus text "use button to switch-off in order to avoid damage".3a) when not switched off, on the moment the printer is making contact with wifi modem, than suddenly the printer switched-off and starts rebooting.3b) when switch-off by button, the printer switched off normally. When the wifi modem is switched off, the printer starts up. and only via USB cable van you do a print.With the tool HP Configuration assist, I tried to re-program for connecting an other wifi modem.That was succesfull, but when this wifi modem is on, the same problem occurs again. ( note: both modems are working fine, not damaged). To exclude, reseting of de modems has also been done. Switching off/on the wifi on the printer will also not help or reset the printer.Reset action, as descibed in this forum, only helped  bit, when the problem started, I could not stop the endless sequence of starting-up and rebooting. And this reset-action helped a bit. From my embedded firmware background on TV's: I expect that kind of code-partition has been damaged, related to this behaviour.Mechanics are OK, printer is not extreme used.Printer is 1,5 year in use without anny issue and accessed via Wifi. Can you help me?- Is it possible to reset the printer to real original factory settings? When useng the factory settings, still wifi settings remain in the printer.- Is it possible to re-flasch the printer via USB stick, when you support me on this? Best regards, Robin 

    Hi , I am glad to hear you now have a stable start up. I'd be happy to help you work towards a solution regarding the wireless issue. I would like to use wireless direct to eliminate the router as being a potential cause. HP wireless direct is a new feature that allows your Wi-Fi capable devices (for example: smart phones, tablets, or computers) to make a wireless network connection directly to your printer without using a wireless router or access point. - Source
     On the front panel of the printer, please access the Wireless Menu and go to Wireless Direct, you can not turn this option us with or with out security, which ever you prefer. Keep in mind, I am not suggesting you use this option as solution, I am merely trying to identify the issue. Once you have the printers network enabled, you can connect your device to it and try printing/scanning. What I mean by connect your device is, open the available networks on your Mac and choose the network that represents your printer, the name will be some variation of the printer name. If this works, the issue must be related to the connection between the printer and the router, if it doesn't work I suspect the problem is with in the printers wireless radio or printer firmware. Please let me know and we can proceed from there.

  • TS4209 When i wake up my iMac from sleep my wifi is disconnected.  It also disconnects my iPad, my wives iPad, my iPhone & Sky On Demand which is connected via wifi. To reconnect all devices i have to switch off & then on again wifi on the iMac. Can anyon

    When i wake up my iMac from sleep my wifi is disconnected.  It also disconnects my iPad, my wives iPad, my iPhone & Sky On Demand which is connected via wifi. To reconnect all devices i have to switch off & then on again wifi on the iMac. Can anyone help?

    Had the same issue and finally solved it.  After the upgrade to Mavericks our 2 new Macbook Airs stopped connecting automatically to Wifi while the older machines the kids had still worked fine.
    Bought a new airport extreme and problem solved.   Our Airport Extreme was about 5 years old and was probably not compatible with the new OSX.
    BTW this was after trying everything people suggested on this forum and a 4 hour marathon tech support call with Apple where we reinstalled the OSX.
    ***** to need to spend $200 but glad the problem got solved.
    New extreme is also mega fast so its all good.

    Hi HARISH INDIA,
    That is not good but lets see if we can get it back to life. If you can, see if you can put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. If you can get it to restore, it will erase everything off your iPhone. If you have a back up in iTunes or iCloud then you can put that on after the restore is complete. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • Offline sync using Cellular when switched off and connected to Wifi

    Problem with Spotify or Apple iPhone6?? I have the sync over cellular switched off in Spotify, but just synced whilst connected to wifi supposedly based on the WiFi icon showing but it used about 1gb of my cellular data. Latest iPhone6 update applied but might not be the reason. Anyone else experiencing this???  I have had to buy more data so I don't get charged.

    I have had the exact same problem. With syncing 2 albums over 200Mb (of 500mb) of my cellular data gone!
    Wifi was on (and working with websites etc.), mobile data for Spotify in iOS settings was enabled, syncing in Spotify via 2g/3g disabled and offline mode in Spotify was turned off.
    This was on iPhone 5c with iOS 8.1, Spotify version 1.9.0.2744
    Please help!

  • Since the last update for my Iphone 4s i dont get text messages when connected to wifi. my wife is getting them. Imessage is switched off on both phones.

    since the 6. version update. of my Iphone 4s My wife was getting my text messages. I found the problem was caused by Imessage when connected to Wifi. I deactivated Imessage on both phones to solve the problem. I now have updated my Iphone to 6.1.1 and i dont get text messages anymore. I have Imessage deactivated on my phone but my wife is getting my text messages again. my wifes phone was not updated to 6.1.1 because the last update lost all her contacts from her phone and we had to but them back in one by one from the outlook list. Her contact are listed in outlook on a seperate list to mine but we can only get my contacts download to her phone. We use the same laptop to sysc phones.
    My Iphone does not download photos to My Pictures anymore. I have to copy them across to a folder. I cant find where it backs them up to.
    I have lost all confidence in Apple now as i was forced to update to 6.1.1 because of 3G reception issues and not reciving calls and now back to spending several hours trying to fix my phone to recieve a basic text message.

    Are you and your wife sharing apple id?
    If you are that is the reason why she is seeing your imessage.
    On both phone go to settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell is the default.
    You will have to uncheck or remove the apple id.

  • My charger switched off my iPhone and now my phone will not switch on unless connected to the charger. But, I cannot access wifi or my sim and the date and time resets. It does not connect to iTunes and freezes after five minutes

    It will not recognise sound and if I take it off the charger, it immediately switches off. I've installed iOS8 previously but nothing is working. Please help!!

    There's only one thing you can do: make an appointment with Apple genius at the Apple retail store for a out of warranty replacement.
