Flight mode

Hello,
is it possible to detect whether Flight mode is set?
I can detect whether phone is off using
Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.SystemState, but how to turn it on and flight
mode off?

As you have discovered, SNAP is great for notification and getting state but
does not offer any changes in state.

You need to use TAPI to turn the radio off. In particular you need to use
the lineSetEquipmentState function.

You will notice the lineSetEquipmentState function accepts a handle which is
the tapi handle and a DWORD. Set DWORD to 0x00000001 to disable radio. These
values are documented in extapi.h. Download the Windows Mobile SDK for this.

See here for more info: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms862586.aspx

OpenNETCF has written a managed wrapper to TAPI, so you might want to take a
look at it. http://www.opennetcf.org.

Neil Cowburn has a HOWTO on enabling/disabling flight mode that leverages the
OpenNETCF Telephony SDK:
