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?

Before I start I want to make this clear
Yes, my wifi policy is on "never" and I have pressed menu>save rather than just exiting out.
[Q] When my screen shuts off, after around 10-20 minutes my wifi disconnects (i can tell by checking router status on my comptuer to see attached devices) and when I turn on my phone and unlock it will go from 3g > wifi right away. The reason I want wifi on constantly is because the wifi radio uses less power than the 3g radio.
Now I'm aware that some roms have an option to turn off radio for 3g/wifi when not in use and will turn them on when the system needs to update/sync. However, my wifi is set to "never" sleep and there is no "always enable mobile data" option on my rom. I'm wondering why it will disconnect my wifi when my policy is set to never.
ROM:
MIUI 0.12.11 (0.12.3 fixed the wifi disconnect problem, but 0.12.11 is a newer rom)
bcblend 2.6.32.25 cfs stable (SBC custom)
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.
Hello!
I have an M8 for 3 months and since day 1 I have problems whatever ghe Rom or FW:
-Wifi wont connect automatically to the wifi signal when changing local, I mean when my M8 is connected to my office's wifi and I go back home it wont connect automatically to my home's wifi, I have to switch off/on the wifi on the M8 to let it connect
-The screen even on manual brightness take about 2-3 secs to really use the 100% brightness I chose!!!
Am I the only one to have these "bugs"?
When I turn my Verizon G4 on the Wifi initially connects, then it shuts off. I have to go into the quick settings every time and turn on Wifi. Is this a common problem? Am I missing something?
Hi. Today I have discovered what was causing my battery life bad. So, if I turn off WiFi when I'm connected to router - it will turn off properly. When I turn on wifi and turn off (without connecting) it will stay in 'scanning mode' even if the icon says it is turned off. Is there any possible fix for that?
