My phone is running CM 7.0.0 and was working well for a while but just today everytime i try to disconnect my wifi to use 3G it (in settings turn off wi-fi) my 3g bars come up for a tad and then before it cna connect my wi-fi automatically turns back on. I have tried this multiple times, wi-fi turns off, and two seconds later automatically turns on.
Any ideas?
i checked the option "always" Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. Does this mean if its "off" that it will use 3g/4g instead? Also does wifi kill battery faster than the networks data
If you have it set to turn off WiFi during sleep, then when you turn off the screen, WiFi turns off and 3G turns on. When you turn the screen back on, 3G turns off and WiFi turns on.
WiFi generally uses less power than constantly being connected to 3G.
Setting WiFi to sleep when the screen is off often hurts battery life with normal use because it takes more power to keep turning radios on and off (over and over again) than it does to just leave them on.
Is there a way to shut your screen off but let apps/wifi (ie airsync, syncing your music files through wifi) run with your display off. Currently shutting off my screen while airsync is syncing files makes my screen blink on and off. I was wondering if its possible to just shut my screen and have airsync run in the background.
Bonus: How would I set a timeout for the wifi?
Anyone have a quick solution to this?
For Wifi Go to Wifi Settings>(Press Menu) Advanced> Keep Wifi On During Sleep> Never > Wifi Idle timeout, and set to what you wish.

I have a Verizon GN. I have an issue with wifi taking a really long time to wake up after the screen has been off. Turning wifi off and on will usually work quickly, but if I don't do this, I can't access the internet sometimes for over a minute even though the wireless is supposedly on and connected (blue). This happens only on my wireless network at home (not at work). My wireless setting on the phone is set to keep wifi on during sleep and wifi optimization is checked. I've unchecked wifi optimization and it didn't really help. Is there something I need to do to my router?
Firmware B111, kicking out of wifi when screen goes off. Wifi is set up "never go off", but still it goes.
I see it on "Smart Profiles",(tried "Profile Flow" also), as I made a rule based on home wifi to switch BT off, when I'm at home.
After some time, when screen goes off, it turns BT on. When I take the phone, it "see" wifi and switches BT off again. In log file of Profile Flow I can see, how the "HOME" profile goes on and off every 5-10 or 15 minutes.
So, the problem is- why WIFI does not keep on all the time. All the possible battery savers are taken off, but still no constant wireless network connection during phone sleep...
And my wifi based profiles don't work as they suppose to...
double check power save option?
