With Wi-Fi turned on, the power consumption is still high when no networks are found.
Why?
By default, MediaPad's Wi-Fi network searching strategy is "Never Sleep". The Wi-Fi chip
keeps working even there are no available networks, resulting in high power consumption.
If you turn off MediaPad's display and make it enter sleep mode, Wi-Fi chips automatically
powers off and stops searching in about 10 minutes.
To save the battery, you can turn Wi-Fi off when there are no networks available.
Can I share folder via Bluetooth?
No, you cannot.
I cannot send an. apk file via Bluetooth. Why?
MediaPad does not support sending .apk files via Bluetooth. This is a restriction by the
Android system it runs.
You can manage to send .apk files via Bluetooth as follows: Change the filename extension
(for example, change it to .mp3), and send it via Bluetooth. On the device that has received
the file, change the filename extension back to .apk.

Yes.
However, as the pre-installed navigation application is an online version, you must install a
supported third-party GPS application to use the GPS services offline.
