since i upgraded to WM6 i have been unable to use my orbit whilt it is on charge, i can put it on charge and when it is turned on but as soon as it turns off, i go to turn it on again and it will not turn on. the only way to get it to come back on is to reset it.
when i recieve a call it does not turn on to display so i have no clue who is calling.
any sugestions of why this is hapening and how to sort it out?

cheers, ill try that.
Now, there are 3 different modes for the Wifi suspension control:
- Never: This option never turn off the wifi connection. So, is better when you are connected to a wifi, but is worse when you are not, because the phone is always searching for connection.
- When it´s not charging: This option turns off the wifi when you turn off the screen, if the phone is not charging, so, is basically like the next option if the phone is not charging, and the first option if the phone is charging.
- Always: This option turn off the wifi always when you turn off the screen. So, is better when you are not connected to a wifi, because the phone isn´t draining battery searching for wifi. But it is worse when you are in a known wifi zone, because the phone is using the data instead the wifi when the screen is off, which drains more battery and waste data of your mobile monthly data.
Neglecting the option of turning wifi on/off manually thorugh the widget, and not using 3rd party apps like juicedefender, I thing the most intelligent and battery saver option depends on your life. So there isn´t a good option for all the people and for all days. For example, I thing the best option for me in the working days is 'Always', because I doesn´t have wifi in my working place, and I spend 10 hours a day on it, so, when I am working, the phone is in my pocket without searching for wifi, but, in the weekend, the best option for me is 'Never', because I spend a lot of time on my house. Finally, for a person who stays the most time of his day in a wifi zone, the best option is 'Never'.
Ok, now I ask, it could be an option that could be the best for all the people? I think the answer is YES:
I think if could be possible to have a mix of 'Never' and 'Always'. I explain, imagine the wifi is suspended at this moment, so you are on mobile data, and you are in your house, for example, and turn on the screen to view the weather. When you turn on the screen, the wifi awakes and connect to your home´s wifi connecion and you view the weather. Now you turn off the screen, BUT, THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE whith the 'Always' option, the wifi DOESN´T turns off, because it is connected at this moment. So, all the time you are at home, since the first screen´s turn on, the phone is connected to the wifi, saving mobile data, and battery, because the wifi drains less battery. Now, you leave your home, and, when the phone lost the wifi signal, turns the wifi off, so, when you are in a not known wifi zone (like the street), the wifi suspends itself for saving battery of wifi searching. The wifi only will search for a known wifi when the screen is on (like now with the 'Always' option) and, if it isn´t connected to a wifi when you turn off the screen, the wifi goes to suspension mode. Now you enter to your home again, with the phone in your pocket, with the screen off, so the phone won´t connect to your home wifi until you turn on the screen, and at this moment, your phone will always be connected to your home wifi until you leave your home again.
I think that is a good idea, and I guess why google doesn´t include something like this in android, it could be the best option for all people in all the situations.
What do you thing about the idea?
I like the idea and I would love to see it implemented! Whenever wifi signal drops out, don't search for it until screen is on.. Would be brilliant!

I am pretty sure we can configure a Tasker profile for something like that!

Probably, but the ideal case would be the option integrated into de system
up
Sounds like a good idea
but for now i use Y5 app
I like the idea, I think its very logical. I fall into the "always around WiFi" group of people though and the "Wifi sleep>Never" options suits me well, If I ever am not in my usual places, I have a wifi toggle on my notif bar for that. One thing I do miss though is the app "WiFi Status", its not compatable with either ICS or the SGN, not sure what the problem is, so I cant use it.
Hi,
I have some small issues with my brand new One X... When I unlock my screen bluetooth randomly turns on, even it is disabled in settings menu. Pairng is disabled, I don't have any wireless devices connected to phone (keyboard, mouse etc.).
Any help? I tried to block automatic bt wake up with some widgets, but still it turns on randomly.
My Bluetooth randomly will shut off. I notice that it isn't connecting to my Fitbit and my car and when I check it is off and I have to manually turn it back on. Is there a setting somewhere that is doing this? I don't have any battery saver apps or services running.

Setup android auto, theres a setting in there to enable bluetooth auto, if you dont set it, sometimes bluetooth turns off
Maybe a little bit of a stretch to be looking for support for such an old device, but it's new to me and the version I wanted (small/minimal screen)
I wanted one of these for pushing calendar notifications, and it's been stellar. I've also been dabbling with sleep tracking but here's where my issue lies. The band seems to drop the BT connection 1-5x/night, and even though it is in DND mode, when it loses connection to my phone (Pixel 3XL) it vibrates regardless and wakes me up. Is this something that's easily fixed? Is my phone going into some sort of deep sleep that's dropping the connection, and if so is there a way to turn this sleep mode off, preferably only when it's on the charger?
Thanks in advance
