There are times when I don't need the phone radio to be on, but I do want WiFi. An example might be late at night watching a video, listening to tunes, or just browsing the Web. No need to waste battery power on the phone radio in those cases. And where I live is in only a "moderate" coverage area (lowest level on AT&T coverage maps) so I suspect the phone radio might be using even more battery power than usual. So I'd like to turn it off occasionally--but only the phone.
I've tried turning on airplane mode and then turning forcing WiFi on. No go, as the iPhone doesn't seem to let me turn on WiFi without turning off airplane mode, thus turning the phone radio back on.
I can turn Bluetooth on and off independently, WiFi on and off independently, but not the phone. Anyone know how to do this?
