Which phones power back on after battery drain?

[Fujur]

I am trying to use a phone as a mobile hotspot / GPS locator in my car. The phone will not be in a very convenient location inside the car. I am trying to find a phone with Android that: If it was on when the battery drains, and then subsequently gets connected to power, it will power itself back on. Any help identifying such a model is appreciated. iPhones do behave like this, but then their mobile hotspot feature won't activate unless someone manually unlocks them. Anyone have a handset that does this bit of powering itself back on?

Highly likely no since android is setup to not do that, try buying a gps that turns on when the car turns on?

It's impossible with the current hardware deisgn. You need to modify a lot of hardware and firmware, and you probably end up with a completely custom made machine.

So batteries like rav power will charge phones while they are being charged. anker cant do that. so what imthinking is to plug the battery into the car and the phone into the battery, this will give you the longest amount of time. you can also block all phone processes using an app blocker to eek out even more time.

No youll fry the battery because the phones battery cannot take that mucj power and the battery will nlow because it no matter how big of a capacity the battery is for a phone

I was hoping to make it foolproof. I'm sticking this into a Tesla Model S, so TECHNICALLY it should have power all the time. Tesla changed the power distribution logic in a recent update last month so getting always-on power isn't as easy as before but should be do-able. I was actually planning to get a really big external battery and doing that charge-while-charging Daniel was saying.

Would the Android hotspot feature bee seen as an infrastrcuture network, or peer-to-peer?

In Android phones, let's see it as an app. You have too start it and it might be stopped by other app, for example a power management app.

Standalone Wi-Fi hotspots may have a different way to work. On those devices the hotspot feature is on as soon as the devices start.
