Ever wished you could shut off your Pocket PC or Pocket PC Phone and keep it off? Ever been in a situation where your Pocket PC turned on and started ringing or sounding an alarm while you were in a meeting? At least when you turn your cell phone off your cell phone remains off.
What you can do:
- Silence alarms - keep that Pocket PC quite without having to remembering to fuss with the volume
- Keep your Pocket PC from turning on and staying on
- Disable all buttons except for the soft-reset... no chance of that Pocket PC from turning on accidentally - maximize that charge!
Instead of using your power button, you simply shut down your system by selecting BatterySaver from the start menu (which this program adds). Then the program goes into action to keep your charge.
What causes battery discharge?
Its somewhat like a screen saver, something that every Pocket PC needs. Every night at 12:00am, your Pocket PC powers up to perform a number of tasks (i.e. perform calendar and alarms tasks for the next day). However, depending on what software you were last using, software you have installed, or configurations of your system, your Pocket PC may not shut off. This results in a total discharge by the time you wake up. The most abundant problem comes from Windows Media Player. If this program is running when your system turns on, then it won turn off.
Another cause of battery discharge is caused by accidentally hitting any button on the Pocket PC unit. This causes the Pocket PC to turn on and it may never turn off (or if it does then it would take a long time).
The application is very simple. If your Pocket PC is started up by accident, then the unit will turn off when it detects inactive use (in 10 seconds or user defined). This prohibits applications such as Windows Media Player from keeping your Pocket PC on.
You will never have to worry about your Pocket PC ever losing its charge due to accidental inactive use.
