Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving, by one or more processors of a device from two or more sensors of the device a first indication that an aircraft on which the device is aboard has taken off, wherein the two or more sensors of the device include an accelerometer;
transforming, by the one or more processors, acceleration data from the accelerometer that is indicative of an acceleration of the device in three dimensions relative to an orientation of the device to being indicative of the acceleration of the device in the three dimensions relative to a direction of gravity;
responsive to transforming the acceleration data and receiving the first indication, activating, by the one or more processors, an airplane mode of the device;
receiving, by the one or more processors from the two or more sensors of the device while the device is in the airplane mode a second indication that the aircraft is not in flight; and
responsive to receiving the second indication, deactivating, by the one or more processors, the airplane mode of the device.
