I took a pretty long video and am trying to upload it to youtube. It's 535MB because it was shot in 1080p. I use the camera app to upload to youtube from the preview area. When I start uploading a progress bar appears, then the screen eventually turns off. After 30 minutes I come back and wake the phone and the connection is lost, so I push the retry button. The progress bar appears again with maybe 5% and starts going up. I leave the phone again and the same thing happens. Upon the third time, there is no bar and it says I have no uploads (this is my first video upload using youtube on this phone). I have no data plan and only use wifi. I check the wifi settings and the wifi defaults to always on in sleep mode. What could be the problem? I think I had a similar problem with my old GS3 and iPad. When I am uploading pictures to dropbox, it just stops uploading after a few minutes, most likely corresponding to the screen turning off automatically.
Do you have SIP droid installed? If so get rid of it.
Try disabling power saver mode if it's on.
Do you face this issue with other wifi networks too or just yours?
Also try changing your router security to WPA to WEP.
IF nothing works, give factory reset a shot.

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7547017
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...
Hey there,
I'm using S-off and oxygen 2.2 on my rooted desire and I have a big problem:
Always when I press the power button so that the screen goes off and than turn it on again by pressing it again after some time (20 secs or so) I see that wlan is turned off and the cellular data connection is used. Shortly after the screen went on, WLAN is on again. Is this some default behaviour to save battery? Is wlan really more battery comsuming than the providers data connection?
The problem which arises now is: I'm using http://www.appbrain.com/app/unlock-at-home-using-wifi/com.accedo.unlockathome which unlocks in a certain wifi and locks, when going out of whitelisted wifi networks. When I press power to turn off the screen and the wlan is disconnected after some short time, the screen gets locked and somehow I think that the screen gets on shortly after this. This causes the wifi to connect again and than after turning off again the wifi gets disconnected again. Thus after the lock applications locks the screen and thus shows it again... -> infinite loop. every now and than (i think about once a minute) I see the screen go on and quickly after it off again.
how to fix that?
Do you have something like Juice Defender installed?
Check the sleep policy.
Swyped from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
Set wifi sleep policy to never, under wifi advanced settings.

Nope i havent!
@k3lcior: strangely it's already set to never and though I often see the cellular data icon appear also when I use the phone (e.g. when writing an sms) and directly disappear again there's to be a problem I think with something on my phone!?
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 there.
I have setup a new tasker:
Turn Wifi Off when Screen off
and another
Turn Wifi On when screen is on.
The only problem is, I want to set a wait time, for the Wifi off one, as sometimes looking at the phone, the screen turns off, I turn it straight back on but WiFi is off and I have to wait for it to load again.
I've tried adding a wait time under the "Task" for Wifi Off.
I have also put the wait before the task (meaning the Wait is the first task, then it shuts Wifi off) I set the wait to 10 seconds, for testing.
But it still turns off instantly.
Any help please?
THANKS!
Try having it wait the 10 seconds, then play a tone, then shut off wifi. If it waits to play the sound, then you know at least the delay is right.

How I would I go about this?
Put the wait first?
Then sound
Then WiFi on?
If the sound doesn't play for 10 secs, I know the wait is working?
THANKS!
Ill try and let you know
Tasker Step One
If someone still having this issue check the tasker wiki : http://tasker.wikidot.com/stepone
At the end it says:
If you click on the Task again, you'll see that the action 'Screen Brightness' has a
particular icon next to it. The icon signifies that the action is a special one called a
Setting, and Tasker will always restore Settings that were changed in the Enter task when a profile
exits.

Hi there,
after update to MM i'm having following issue. My watch doesn't automatically connect to wifi network when i'm going out of the BT range. It will only connect when i wake up the screen and swipe down the top menu or slide left to the app drawer. It looks like you have to first wake up the watch to trigger the action.
Anyone having the same? It's quite annoying as it happens all the time in my home when i'm going between the floors without my phone with me. Of course, i have wifi adapters on both floors. so it's not a matter of wifi signal strength. As i said, when i "trigger" the reconnection, it will connect to wifi without problems.
Thanks in advance.
Having the same problem. Have had the watch 2 days. Anyone have a solution?

Nobody? I have also restored to defaults and configured once more but the issue still occurs. It starts to be very annoying.
a theory: it's in power save mode. Let it go below 15% battery, find the card about battery saver, turn it off. I think I've seen that power save mode stays on even after charging, and can only be turned off with the card.
Also check your settings under wifi/advanced
Thanks. I also tried to remove some saved wireless networks from the watch and it also helped a bit.
