Running WM 6.5 on a TMob Dash. Have the same rom on two phones but on the wifes whenever I go up to the connection slide and select Wifi. It says Disconnecting and then Wifi Off. The icon will never turn on red or blue. If I go into comm manager I can click on the Wifi and it will switch from Off to On but then it never pops up finding networks or even showing the icon on the main page as on. I have turned the power setting to Best Performance and unchecked the auto turn off after x mins. What could be causing it to not come on? Any help is greatly appreciated. This is my first post so if any other information is needed just let me know.

Hi,
This might be a dumb question.
On normal situation with Android phone:
When I turn on my device from sleep, I could not see the 3G icon ... Only the signal strength. Then after couple of seconds, the 3G icon came up.
My phone works like this since I have it.
My question, does this mean the 3G data is also sleep when the phone sleep? Because when I wake it up, the 3G icon does not immediately come back.
Thanks.
Yes, it does disconnect after a period of inactivity (if you look at the android logs) when the phone is in sleep mode. There is a setting which you may not have enabled. it goes on the lines of 'Enable always on mobile data' under wireless and network options.
However if the phone needs to connect to the net, then i think it will re-connect in that time period. This is what you see when the 3G icon appears after a few seconds on wake up. I have always seen the phone to do this.
Allright,
I was thinking if this kind of app is really necessary:

But, I guess, it is useful because during the sleep mode, some app might require internet access (email sync for example).
Maybe....The only reason i say this is that the OS will start a new network connection in the background even when the phone is sleeping...thats how your emails are sync'd and so is everything else...
i'm running rmk gingersense on my phone and when you go to quick settings, it says mobile network off? and i click it but it won't turn on. it only turns on if i press the turn on wireless button. anyone else have problems with this? i went to my settings and it says its connected but its not checked off (does taht mean i'm okay?). i tried clicking on mobile network and it says turning on but doesn't check and the quick settings still say off.
someone there told me its the case. and when i took it off and put it back on it was fine. but now its back off again. help anyone?
I installed this ROM. Looks great! But... I cant turn the Internet connection off! I want to turn it off especially for night, but if I go to Comm Manager and turn it off, few seconds later (especially when return to HOME screen) it connects again.
I have all updates set as manual, so no idea why...???
Help! Thanks

Click to expand...

there is a setting for timeout for disconnect.
Details:
Galaxy Nexus running CM 10 latest nightlies
Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep, set to: Only when plugged in
Symptoms:
Every night, I leave my phone plugged in. Every morning, Wi-Fi isn't working. I have to reboot to get Wi-Fi back, until the next morning the same problem happens.
Wi-Fi icon is gone in notification bar.
Power widget Wi-Fi icon is white (ON).
Settings > Wi-Fi shows it as ON.
Settings > Wi-Fi is stuck on Searching for Wi-Fi networks...
I cannot 'disable' Wi-Fi via settings nor the power widget; it just returns to the 'on' position/icon.
Failed attempts to fix:
Factory reset
Toggle Airplane mode
Wi-Fi settings > Scan
Hit WPS button (get a failed msg immediately)
Some 'wifi fixer' app from Play store..
Toggle mobile data
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated! This has been driving me mad for a long time, and I have seen other people report this problem with no solution in sight.
Post dmesg.
The wifi icon in my Quick Settings bar is always grey at the moment (usually indicating the wifi is turned off). If I tap on it, it turns blue for a few seconds, then goes back to grey. If I tap and hold the icon it says that I am connected to my home wifi.
The issue also seems to affect my podcast app (PocketCasts). If I try to download a podcast it tells me that "You're not on wi-fi", and tells me that my data plan will be used. I have mobile data disabled.
I do appear to have a wifi connection, but the phone seems to be advertising the fact that it is not turned on for some reason.
Any idea how I can fix this?
I'm running build number QPN30.33.40 (I have checked, and there are no software updates available).
