I've never created an android app, however I am a computer science major 
(sophomore), so I am relatively familiar with some java code. However, I'm 
still new to programming so forgive me if I say anything ignorant.

I have noticed that the less service I have, the more battery power that is 
used to search for service.
My ultimate goal is to create an app that will put my phone on Airplane 
mode when it is locked and periodically turn off Airplane mode every X 
minutes.
The purpose of putting the phone on Airplane Mode when it is locked is to 
prevent the phone from using battery searching for service when I am not 
using it.
The purpose of turning off Airplane Mode every X minutes is to allow my 
phone to "update," by searching and hopefully connecting to a network so 
that I can be alerted of any missed text messages and/or calls that I have 
received since being on airplane mode.
If the phone is unlocked, I would like Airplane mode to be turned off.

Ideally, I would rather not have to write this code at all. I would really 
appreciate it if someone else could write it for me, not because I am lazy, 
but because this is an app that my phone desperately needs because I spend 
a lot of time in areas where I have too little service for the phone to 
effectively use the networks to send information, but just enough service 
that my phone can still receive information from senders (texts/emails).
-Thank you to whomever may be able to help me.
