Ah magical thinking of someone incapable of actual logic. With an added probably - to seem as if this was thought out in any way.

Turn off Wifi.
Turn off Bluetooth.

And in Android settings unter WiFi/Advanced, make sure you set "Keep WiFi on during sleep" to "Only when plugged in", and that you disable Network notifications (Notify whenever a public network is available).

On a Likebook Mars thats almost two years old at this point, this will give you 20 days of standby use.



Deactivate turn off after x minutes, so that the device always just goes into standby as well.

For any android device this is plenty.

People dont even have to deal with apps breaking sleepstates and draining batteries faster, because Boyue force closes all apps after a while, if not specified specifically to not force close. Similarly Boyue doesnt allow for Android apps to set 'start at boot' flags, unless you specify them as being allowed to start at boot. This counteracts most of the usual battery drain on Android - which allows for those long standby times in the first place.

On better SOCs Wifi might not have to be deactivated at all, but with this one - something using Wifi (or Bluetooth) seems to suspend deep sleep states for too long, which is why it is recommended to deactivate those to to get those stand by times.

If we are all finished playing pricks in the know - as far as I'm concerned, we can move on.
