WLAN off when Screen off?

Hi,
I just discovered something strange: I use FolderSync to sync Music to my GN. I configured it to only sync when WLAN is available. When I sync and switch the screen of, then the Sync stops immediately and resumes when I switch the Screen back on. Is WLAN switched off when the screen is switched off? Did I miss some settings to configure that?
Thanks

May be related with some auto task killer or process killer like juice defender

Yes you missed some wifi settings. You can set there whether you want to turn off wifi with the screen, keep it always on or keep it always on while charging.
You can find it in:
Settings - wifi - ... - advanced

Thanks martan1981, but this is "always on" on my GN. So thats not the reason

Do you have any battery-saving apps like JuiceDefender or GreenPower installed? That could cause your data/wifi to turn off with the screen.
Or there could perhaps be a power-saving function built in to your ROM? I know AOKP has a Power Saver mode that could be enabled to turn data off with the screen.

wifi sleep policy should be set to never. But some people have a bug where this setting does not stick for some reason. You prob have this bug too.

I also have this problem how to fix it ?

[Q] Wifi staying on when screen turns off.

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?

[Q] Help: Physically can't turn of GPS on Note 4. Always on GPS only mode.

I have a new verizon Note 4. It's been a great phone with very few problems until recently. I can't turn off the GPS. I'm not talking about GPS running in the background of applications. I'm talking about in the Location settings I can't turn off the GPS. I slide the switch to the off position and it jumps right back to on. There's nothing I can do. I've taken the battery out, force stopped all the applications that access my GPS, and cleared my cache in the safe boot settings. Does anyone know why this is? Under "Locating Method" I can't change it to anything but "GPS only". Power Saving is grayed out and High accuracy will allow me to select it, but when I go back into settings it is back to GPS only. This isn't a huge problem, but it's concerning me that I can't decide when I want to have the GPS network disabled or not to save my battery.

You may end up having to do a factory reset. You could try downloading a toggle app and use it to try to turn off GPS.

[Q] Smart Settings Wifi Question / Issue

If you have wifi set to off when you're either away from home or at home, should the wifi notification icon on the slide down notification menu thing be greyed out (not blue)? When i manually turn off wifi, and enter my home location (to which i have my smart setting to turn on wifi) wifi turns on automatically and connects to my router.
When I leave my home area (i have the smart setting to turn off wifi) it does not appear to turn off. Has anyone ran into this issue?

I guess I might be the only one with this issue. Strange.

Same here, so far the only issue I'm having with the G4, but still annoying

Same here, smart settings is not working properly

It requires data to work.

What data? Home location is set, data is always active..

Llama does a much better job and it's free on the Play Store.

Did you set your GPS to high accuracy and set up your home location. Mine works fine

Vibration automatically turns off on wifi connect

Hello,
Since last Sunday I have a strange problem with my g4 (v20d-eur). I didn't change anything, no update, no app installation, nothing. I realized my vibration is not working even though it's turned on in settings. So I thought it's just broken.
When I left home on Monday vibration worked again so I thought it was some strange temporary problem. Once I got home again vibration didn't work again. So I got the idea it has something to do with wifi. And that's it. Whenever I connect to a WiFi the vibration doesn't work anymore (but it's turned on and set to max vibration intensity). As soon as I disconnect the WiFi it's working again without any changes made in settings. I already checked if I set up a Tasker profile and accidentally added a vibration off task but that's not the case.
I don't know what to do anymore. Does anyone else have that very strange problem? TIA.
Btw. No unlock/root/custom Rom here. Everything is LG original.
