When I check the battery stats(stock), the green bar is full next to wifi, even though it is off. Wondering if this is a true bug or just a reporting issue and wifi is really off. Here's a screenshot, wifi was off the entire time.

You mean under location settings? I'll toggle it and see.

I have this prob too. Wifi is off scanning is off yet it still shows wifi is on in battery stats
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
It will show up even if you turn your phone off.
Probably the same visual glitch with the battery stats left over from Lollipop.
On my N5 with Lollipop I was able to confirm the WiFi was actually off and not using any battery during that time.
As a work around, if you disable WiFi while still connected to the WiFi network it will show properly as off. But just to confirm, it was a visual glitch only and WiFi was not actually on during that time.

I was having this problem for the first day or two. I simply turned off mobile data for awhile and then turned it back on a few hours later and it only pops up now when receiving or sending an MMS (or when I leave the wifi signal, of course). Not sure if that's the fix or just a fluke.

This is across all phones I've used from time to time nothing to be concerned about it'll go away with time with no action on your behalf.

I figured out that its verizon's stupid CallerID app. It needs mobile data on to analyze incoming calls. It's not used, but its on. I disabled callerID and its not there anymore
I also thought it was the CallerID app and disabled it. However the issue re-occurs whenever I open the My Verizon Mobile app to work with my account. I tested it though by streaming some music for a while then checking my phones data usage in settings and it's not actually using mobile data.
My uncle's did the same thing when using Facebook app and then turning on wifi. Haven't had a chance to test his yet, but I'm pretty sure it's the same issue. Still, it's an annoying problem, especially when you get phone calls from the fam wondering why their phone's using 4g when on wifi
When my 4G won't turn off I just restart the phone and it does the trick. Doesn't happen very often for me though.

The below screen shot shows approx 8 hours is this 8 hours since phone was removed from charger ? I think so just want to confirm.
Also the gap in network signal. I am assuming this means at some point for a certain amount of time my phone didn't have a signal ? If true this would be most odd as I have a cel fi signal booster in my home.
Thanks.

Yes you are correct the phone was on battery power and the signal was lost in the gap. Was it put in airplane mode. That would disconnect the mobile signal

No wi fi calling always off. Phone was also never put in airplane mode. So basically looks like my radio turns off sometimes.

There is another thread somewhere with people complaining about this happening to them, too. It happens to me, I think its a reporting bug in kitkat, mine shows big gaps too, but never has it not been connected to a tower.

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.
I noticed that when I leave wifi on all the time, it drains battery horribly. left idling for 23 hours, it drained the battery 30 percent doing nothing. if i set wifi to only always on when charging, it'll drain maybe 10 percent or so.
I noticed it's just this tablet. my nexus 7s never had such wifi drain. I want to leave it on because i hate that upon wake, when it has to turn wifi back on, it's so laggy for a bit because everything is syncing. kinda annoying.
anyone else notice this?
A bit of reading for you.

Install the free Juice Defender, you cannot edit profiles in the free version, so just install it and turn it on, and forget about it and let it do it`s magic

well what I meant to say was it doesn't kill battery on my note 4 or my LG g2 like this. it's like, specifically this tablet.

Even though your wifi might be enabled all the time, maybe it`s not being used as much, maybe some apps or settings, stop wifi from sleeping or you could have a wifi noisy environment meaning the wifi transmitter has to use a stronger signal to break though the noise, meaning more power is used.
Lots of maybe, I dont really know, it`s just a guess.

Nothing out of the ordinary
Hi guys.
I noticed in battery details that Wifi looks always-on even if I switch it OFF often for example during last night or yesterday afternoon when I was out for working. As you can see the "scanning always available" is OFF.
Anybody with this problem?

Do you have location services turned on using Wi-Fi?

No, I have "Device only - Use GPS to determine your location"
But from battery chart looks like the wifi is really off ( only 1% of discharge during 7 hours of night sleep). Maybe is only an issue with battery stats indicator.
Might just be a bug. Mine is off and I have anything pertaining to Wi-Fi off that would cause it to sleep or use battery. When I switch back to my Z5P I will check the stats again. Currently it's feel like using my Nexus week lol

Ahahah OK thanks man
There you go gave it a couple hours to see if it is on. Initially it was on then I remembered to turn it off.

As you see in the red circle wifi went off at some point. It would be nice to discover which process is doing that.
Btw it's fun to note (green circle) that wifi seems working even if the phone is off with dead battery.
