Commands to switch airplane mode?

Yourcat · 03-29-2016, 02:51 PM

Hello!
I'm looking for commands to enable and disable the airplane mode from a script / shell. I prefer to keep WLAN off but sometimes I need it to fetch some data, eg for a KUAL ext. Turning it on and off interactively is not what I'm looking for.
TIA

There should be lipc commands for that.
Start by searching (or reading) the scripts in /usr/bin

lipc command for controlling wireless as used in Aeris' Native Menu (which includes its own button for controlling the WiFi using nativeBridge for javascript ==> lipc):

Code:

#!/bin/sh

wifi-enable() {lipc-set-prop com.lab126.cmd wirelessEnable 1}
wifi-disable() {lipc-set-prop com.lab126.cmd wirelessEnable 0}
