Auto on/off at set times

[teamhoover]

Does anyone know how to set the phone to turn on and off at specified times. I.e. turn on at 8:00 am and off at 11:00 pm.

I never found an app to do this. Can't believe there isn't one...

+1 for wanting this functionality

I know with Tasker you can set profiles, but I am not sure about turning the phone "on" from a powered down state

+1 for Tasker and there is also an app called Setting Profiles that I believe is similar to this...

Also, not sure about powering on but will power off...

The only phones that I'm aware of with this capability are blackberries.

Why you ask? Because short of pulling the battery, a blackberry is never truly off. Instead, they go into a sort of hibernation mode which allows the phone to boot up quickly when you turn it "on" and also allows for the auto on/off functionality.

However, this is also the reason that it is suggested to pull the battery frequently on blackberry, because they don't have a task killer and manage multitasking poorly.
