Hey guys in having the same problem as I did after the 2nd update I believe to the S3. At random times the Wifi will turn itself on so it's apparently a Samsung problem just not the certain phone you are using. It's not really killing my battery yet is just more annoying I pull down the notification bar and the Wifi is on. Anybody know of a fix?

Hi guys. Just some interesting things things i found out about the s3. You can put it in airplane mode and turn on the bluetooth wifi connection and use it with a clear wifi port. And use groovelite and make calls.

Thank you! I just assumed you couldn't have some radios on and others in airplane mode. I get horrible cell coverage, so this should save me a lot of battery to only turn that off.

Check settings make sure notifications are turned on. Someone asked this the other day and I think that was the solution. Think it is under settings/blocking mode.
turn auto sync on try if it works
Here is something new for the last few days, my wifi keeps turning on by itself. Im on stock GB27. This happening to others?
I believe i found the reasons why. Sprint Optimizer

That is the reason why, I was using an app while running stock that would keep the wifi off until I switched to cm10.1 wild in the night, no longer have that issue

Or instead of using an separate app, yo can just turn it off in the network settings.

Mine has a short vibrate sometimes when I go to pick it up after sitting for a few minutes. A little more then keyboard feed back. But screen is locked and phone is asleep.

ummm i'm not sure if you guys are aware but there is a option in the setting that vibrates the phone if you have any new/incoming notifications while the screen is off, that way you dont have to turn the screen on if u dont feel the vibration... but if you do feel a vibration that means you have a new notification, excuse me if you guys were already aware of this future.
I am not getting a notification at all it just vibrates and there is nothing happening at all. No notification at all.

I used to have that problem on my s3... Not as frequent but it would beep too and I think it was an app running in the background. ..

My phone does this as well. I thought it was a feature that I hadn't turned off
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
I'd also like to add that it doesn't have to be vibrating. It only ever vibrated when my phone was in vibrate mode. however if you turn the volume up, it would make a da da sound like a notification.

@westkhalifa13 I had the same problem with my wifi dropping randomly until I turned off the "Auto switch networks" setting under wifi advanced settings. Haven't had the problem since! I assume with auto switch turned on the phone drops wifi to switch to the faster 4g/LTE.

I don't understand how my Internet browser seems to be filtered by default not letting me play videos I think the prevention information notification is also getting on my nerves lol

My next device will be a GPE if it can at all be arranged. Meaning hardware better than the Note III (pen I don't care) and at least a 5.5" screen. Hopefully when the Note
IV launches, one of its competitors will do a Play Edition.
I kept getting random reboots. Turns out it was a defective phone since I haven't gotten a single reboot since I received the replacement and I've been running the same exact apps. But then again. my phone is completely stock.
