Wifi & reception loss.

Hi.
This maybe in the wrong thread.
My question is this..
Every time I lock my DHD then unlock it, it has cut off my wifi & reception off so could be affecting incoming calls etc.
Im currently running cyanogen rom(latest).
Is there a option to correct this or a fix.
Thanks guys for any help. )

Before the mods get on here, I will answer as long as you recognise this...
THIS IS THE DEV SECTION...all Questions should hit the Q&A section
However, have you checked that wifi sleep when screen is off is unchecked.
Settings>>Wireless and Networks>>*menu button* Advanced>> and check to see what wifi sleep policy is set to.

First of all, you posted this in the wrong section.
Anyway, I'll reply here. Some Admin is going to move this thread to Desire HD General section of the sub-forum, I believe. Anyway...
The Wi-Fi connection may drop because it is set that way. Go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Wi-Fi Settings. Now press (touch) the menu key, then go to Advanced. From there, you should have an option called Wi-Fi Sleep Policy (it is the very first, I believe). Set that to never, or whatever it suits you.
It should be on When screen off by default, which means the Wi-Fi goes off every time the screen does so.

Oh thank you, wbbigdave. It took me 6 minutes to remember where exactly this setting was in Sense. Now my post is useless, and so is the waste of time I just did. haha

Gah knew i missed a step, im actually on ICS now so forgot my sense menus.

Thanks alot guys for the reply. I had a feeling was the wrong place too post. Thought might of been something to do with cyanogen rom. Not the case.
Thanks

Wi-Fi has nothing to do with 2G/3G, so it being off doesn't mean the CELULAR network is off...
Or... what did you mean?

No data connection only on certain apps

Posted this on another site but was not able to get help.
Let me start by saying that I am rooted but on stock rom.
I'll try and explain the best I can.
Yesterday I went to use Opera and noticed that it went to a white screen and never loaded Opera. Tried it about 5 times and the same thing nothing. Tried with wifi on and off. Used the stock browser and it works fine.
So I scrolled through my screens and noticed that my Engadget widget shows "data not available". i deleted the widget and added it back, again same message.
Went into settings and my Mobile Data is still checked. Data usage shows 45.95MB used so far. So I do not believe it hit a data limit and shut it off.
I have no idea what to try. Any help would be appreciated.

You should post this is the q&a forum. Not the galaxy s3 general.

I think he means post it in Galaxy S III Q&A and not general.
Did you try a reboot and do you have any data related apps installed such as Juice Defender?

Tried rebooting and uninstalling and reinstalling apps.
No Juice Defender.

engadget widget doesn't work still but thats o.k.

roam control works but no sign on sprint

I rooted my phone recently and installed roam control. It seems to work as I get the triangle next to the reception bar once I put 'roam only'... I let my phone download about 170mb using 3g roam today to test it and that was around 11am. When I check my account now on sprint it shows no roam usage.
Any idea why?
Really want to make them dump me.

It takes a while for it to show up. Wait 24 hours and check it again.

Well there is at least a temporary fix until the phone is rebooted...Pull down the notification bar and long press on the Activation notification, then just click on clear data. This will clear it out till the phone is rebooted. Hope that helps.

WiFi weirdness

I have a weird issue with WiFi.
It's almost like it's always off but turns on when there's a demand for it. Screws up my WiFi calling. Is there a setting that I am missing somewhere? When I am running an app that requires data, it will quickly show "connected to BLAH", but won't stay connected after I turn the screen off.
