Apparently, no way to stop it but, it's a normal thing..
Even Samsung devices running with Kitkat do so.. I don't know about other manufacturers' devices though or Samsung devices powered by Jelly Bean..

[Q] Awake Time

Hi, my phone has been periodically waking up as seen in the screenshots below.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've gone through all of my installed apps and made sure that they arent refreshing, etc. at any frequent period (facebook and android weather were the biggest abusers, but I turned refresh off and to 6hrs respectively). I cant find any other apps that would be waking the device up, but its still being woken up about every 7 min. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
I seem to be having the same problem since the jelly bean update At first I though it was the steam app the one awaking the phone, but it doesn´t seem to be the case. Right now I´m blaming Google Now as I see no other suspects, but I´m not really convinced... It looks like it only happens when I have data connection or wifi on. If I disable all data, the problem seems to dissapear.

Ok so I just realized that Tapatalk was set to check for updates every 30 min. I changed that to 12 hrs, but that still doesnt explain the rate of awakes that I was seeing. Could it be google sync? I thought there used to be a place to set the sync interval, but I cant seem to find it in JB...
use better battery stats to look at what's keeping the phone awake

[Q] Difference between options

Hi everyone,
I leave you this picture:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I know what the first option it is for, but, what about the second one? I don't know what it is really for.
(Translation: Wifi battery saving (Minimize the use of battery when Wifi is active))
I hope you can help me.
I'm having some issues with push notifications after having the LG G3 locked for more than 10 minutes but it only happens with wifi connections.

What exactly are you asking here, or confused about? I don't get what you're asking. You don't know what "minimize battery use when WiFi is active" means? Sounds self explanatory.
Sorry for not explaining.
I have some issues with push notifications (I don't receive them until I unlock the phone) with wifi connection when my phone is locked for a long time.
I've got the second option ticked, could it be the reason?
Hmmm, that's odd. Let's assume in the most extreme of buggy scenarios that your WiFi goes to sleep when screen is off (even though it is checked otherwise), your mobile data should still kick in.
It has nothing to do with battery saving while on WiFi.
I'd say do a reset and start over again and see what happens.
I did.a reset and start over but it still happens

Hmmm, sorry don't know what else to suggest.

[Q] foxfi for att note 4

So I finally decided to download foxfi again on my note 4 recently. The USB tethering option works great but Im unable to use the wifi option due to the fact that att is disabling the wifi. Ive hit the home key to see if that works but that isnt working. Ive checked to see if the network would come up on my computer but it did not show. Please help me, Im without out internet in my house because we're in the process of moving but I still have work to do!
You should be able to just use the WiFi Hotspot on your phone via setting --> hotspot unless you're still on unlimited data. If you're on unlimited then you have to be rooted if I'm correct.
Hope it helps.
Does anyone know what causes this? Ad detection apps don't work on my phone ("...has stopped working.") and it doesn't pop up from notification bar so I can't long-press to find source. It pops up from the bottom of the screen every time an app from Play Store installs or updates....ugh!!!!

There's no way to fix this? Only to wait for an update?

Thats the only way I was able to sort it,there was also a thread somewhere on s10+ with tons of battery saving things to do not sure if they changed anything cant remember
I got mine to stop in settings, device care, battery, app power management, deep sleep apps. And I just added the apps I did not want running in the background, so far it keeps them off unless I go into it and when I leave the app it gets put to sleep.
