What feature(s) from the old generic phone(s) do you miss on your Smartphone ??
the new smart phones
Make Model
On a Vodafone 725 (still got )
It has an alarm that ACTIVATES when the phone is switched of
On the modern Smartphone, it appears that is not a function anymore
Doing some research, seems that it will not be a future function

Im guessing if you want a phone thatl "know" to boot up for an alarm, itl need a lil low power chip runnin java or symbian inside adding size for a function not many care for. Android has introduced blocking mode and with the Moto X chipsets around, i think we'll all be happy to let our pocket computers sleep in the way they were intended

the ability to keep hold of a signal when I pick the phone up
