Hi, I always turn off my wifi when i go to bed at night and when i wake up in de morning i see that my wifi has opened and closed again. I can see that from received whatsapp messages and almost 20 25% battery gone.
Does anybody know how to keep wifi closed? or something else?
HTC One X has something that automatically does this, I think its called "Quiet time".
It could be a little bug that, because you've turned your WiFi off, when "Quiet Time" kicks in it accidentally enables wifi.
weird I didn't know that is it possible to enable that?

I keep noticing that under accounts, my google account sync options keep turning up on the "off" setting. Meaning I miss gmails, etc. which are normally push notified.
I am pretty sure I've turned it "on" several times already.
Anyone else?
Are you sure you don't use apps like Tasker, or Phone Weaver? You might have told such an app to kill sync.
Nope. None of the above!
I'm wondering if the phone loses connectivity, ICS shuts off account sync. But then connectivity is re-established, maybe it doesn't turn on? Or, not immediately at least.
HAHAHAHA. Wow. Just figured it out.
On the power widget, I thought the circular arrows were for auto-rotate. Which I wanted off.
They are for SYNC.
So yes, sync was randomly turning itself off. Because I turned it off manually.
LOL!
We learn every day!

Thanks! I was wondering why it was doing that on my Nexus 7. In the wi-fi section theres something called a WPS Push button and when i was looking at my shortcuts and saw the sync arrow on I mistook it for the WPS thing and kept pushing it off and then wondering why sync kept going off. Feel silly now.
On ICS, where can I find the settings for Wifi sleep policy etc? My Wifi keeps turning itself off after a time, and Im trying to get the the bottom of it, but cant find where those settings would be. They certainly arent where they have been for previous Android versions...
Go to Wifi Networks, click menu bottom on bottom right > advanced.
Even though mine is set to always stay on, it regularly turns itself off. Every morning, I've lost quite a lot of battery and I have no connection. Within a few seconds of the screen coming back on, it will reconnect.
Is this just me? (Android Revolution HD 2.1.2)
Its not working for me. No matter what setting I put wifi on it turns itself off when out of range for a certain period of time (about thirty minutes I think). Driving me insane.
Mine's only a couple of meter's from the access point, still turns itself off...
The same for me. Not 30 minutes but immediately.
For example the notofications appear only if I unlock the screen.
In wifi setting is on "keep always"
Example: i receive a whatsapp, email or facebook notification only when unlock the screen. Is normal?
With data connection all work fine.
I'm glad to know it's not just me. At least that means hopefully there is a fix coming at some point...

same here anyone an idea? sucks hard..
I figured my problem, traced it back to the Vodafone app, it was causing wifi to crash. Once i removed it it works perfectly. The problem stemmed from the vodadone app constantly trying ro find free wifu points to.automatically connect to.

HI forumers
can you suggest any help?
When I have my device screen turned off, my wifi stays connected. So in the middle of the night, emails will sting "ping" out a sound.
I have selected in the settings to turn off Wifi when in sleep, and when i close my case cover, but it just doesnt.. Any ideas?
Thanks
Yeah that doesnt work for me either. I would try setting a wifi timer in wifi, adavanced settings and pick a time where you want wifi to be on during certain times of the day. Hope this helps!
Really?! not just me then? I was wondering if maybe a downloaded app is making this error happen.
Can anyone confirm that it does work for them?
Guys, Have you tried to untick "always autorized localisation search" in the advanced parameter of the wifi ?
Hope it could help.
Good idea, but I've just tried this and it didnt fix the problem..
Anyone else?
Or maybe someone knows an app that can do this?
Hello, Second day of ownership and I am already having an issue. The watch vibrates, I check it for a notification, nothing there. Awhile later, vibrates again, no notification. Sometimes there is a notification it got from the phone, but 90% of the time it seems to be vibrating for no reason.
I tried to wear it to bed last night but the incessant vibrations were annoying.
Even if it was vibrating when I got a notification,is there a way to tell it not to vibrate for certain hours?
Thanks

Check google fit settings. Mine use to do that but "fit" was buzzing me to get active and get moving. When I told it not to urge me to move the vibrations stopped. good luck?
I don't see Fit on the watch or on my phone? Is it hiding? I went into the watch settings and nothing there for fit? On the phone I have the Wellness app but the option to bug me to move is off so that shouldn't be it. It seems you are on the right track, but I don't know how to find the app?
Thanks

Did you try resetting the watch back to default?
Wellness, just like fit, has a "Remind me to move" feature that will send vibrations. Also, if you have it set to remind you when you forget your phone it will vibrate without any message when it loses connection.

Since this last update that sony rolled out to the my phone my bluetooth will not work at all. I can turn bluetooth on but I get a message that pops up immediately that says Bluetooth share has stopped with an X and close app message. If I tap close app the message disappears and bluetooth turns off and turns back creating the same problem over and over. I cannot turn off bluetooth from the quick settings bar, I have to go into settings and turn it off. Anyone else with this issue or have a workaround or fix for it?
Bluetooth notifier won`t go away
I have a problem where I have a message that pops up and says, "Bluetooth Share keeps stopping."
It has, "Close App" with an X beside it. (only option)
I tap it and it reappears a second later.
I've painstakingly gotten into settings (constantly closing this notifier) and opened Bluetooth and it`s not on so I turned it on but no difference. (notice still popping up)
So I turned it back off (no difference).
I've restarted phone (still happens).
I've turned phone off for 5 minutes and turned back on (still does it).
I've just discovered I can turn it off by sliding down from the top while locked but after a second or 2 it starts blinking so I open it and find it's back on.
Last app I installed was Torque Pro but uninstalled it when this problem arose, thinking it was trying to connect to my OBD2 scanner.
I managed to get a screen shot after many attempts but can't send it as the notifier keeps interrupting.
Wow, no idea why but it's just now stopped doing it after hours of pain.
What the hell?

ever tried on pc companion repair?
No I haven't.
I wasn't aware this phone used it.
All my Sony's have always installed it or accessed it the moment I plugged it in but this phone never did or needed it to exchange files so I figured it didn't use it
