[Q] EVDO & Wifi enabled at the same time

The topic says it all.
Is there a way to keep 3G & Wifi enabled at the same time ?
Or is it possible to control the stack routing table, to control when to change from Wifi to 3G(Signal Strength, battery level, ...).
My goal is to make a smooth transition from 3G to Wifi and Wifi to 3G, so they must be enabled together for a short period of time.
As tested in this thread : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5974482
When Wifi is turned on, rmnet0 in the routing table table disappears, and reappears when disabling WIFI.
So as I can't retain rmnet0, I can't manage the routing table as I want.
If I'm missing something please let me know.
Thanks.
I keep both wifi and mobile enabled all the time on my phone.
Go to Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Menu > Advanced > Wi-Fi sleep policy > Never.
Then make sure wifi and mobile are both enabled on your phone.
That setup gives you wifi hookup whenever wifi is available, and mobile connection when wifi isn't available. You're always connected to one or the other, even when you're on the move, and the switching is seamless and transparent.

Nice tip.
Thanks
Thanks, but isn't there a way to control and manage this.
For example, both are enabled with sleep policy and everything done like you just said.
So I am on 3G network, detect WIFI, but don't want to connect to it, due to certain parameters, like battery, signal strength, ...
Or can I just rely on the automatic switching when WIFI is detected nearby ?
Don't know if you guys know this or not. But having WiFi conected gives you the ability to be on the phone and web at the same time.

wifi sleep

I have read other post but there is not a solution.
if screen off wifi not work, (work with AC)and I can't receive email or twitter or other... I try many widget from the market but nothing..I have original Rom......It's a wifi bug because if I try with mobile connection it's ok with screen off......Other people have this bug, is it possible that we can't resolve maintaining original Rom? thanks
Its not a bug, check your wifi sleep policy.
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wifi settings > Press Menu > Advanced > Wifi sleep policy.
Make sure you save your changes > Menu > Save.
I already have done this procedure....In wifi advanced I have "never"...then I have saved...the problem there is...
Check if there are OTA updates available. If not then I would perform a full factory reset.
I have done a factory reset
I would suggest getting your DHD exchanged. Something isn't working as it should.
I solved, It was my router ...
I would of never thought it would be your router.
Glad to hear you got to the bottom of it.
I think I have the opposite bug...
I have Wifi sleep policy, "After 15 min" but I tried waiting more than 15min and Wifi doesn't get turn off...

[Q] Make Android forget my WiFi settings

I want to get Android (and perhaps my google account) to forget all WiFi networks I've used. I can't remove them from Settings > Wireless and Networks > WiFi Settings because this menu no longer responds when I have WiFi enabled, and I can't see the list of networks when WiFi is disabled.
Anyone got any ideas?

neidlinger, you've just made my day. I've been trying to get this fixed for a while. It's caused all kinds of problems for me - one time it even randomly rebooted and removed all my widgets. Many thanks!

[Q] Wifi Issue

I am having issues with my wifi. After it has been in sleep mode for a while it will not connect properly. The WiFi is connected to a network but the icon is grey, not blue and will not actually do anything.
Another post suggested to turn off the Google Wifi scan but it was already off when i went to change the setting in advanced WiFi settings. Any other suggestions I could try?
Wifi - Settings - Advanced - Keep WiFi on during sleep -> Always
Wifi - Settings - Advanced - WiFi optimization -> turn it off
check those two, could help.

Can power saving mode affect wifi connectivity?

We just switched internet providers at the beginning of the month, Wifi was going in and out with our previous internet provider A LOT. Wifi and internet has been much better lately. But today I noticed Wifi went in and out when I go to unlock my screen it's off and once I unlock my screen it comes back on quickly. Is this because I have power saving mode on? I did a FDR a few days ago and it just started doing it tonight. It's only on my phone. Is there a setting I can find that will fix this?

Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi > Advanced > "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" change that to Always
Power saving mode should not turn your Wi-Fi off but it can restrict apps from using it, If it does then maybe this setting would help.
If you want to customize how power saving mode works go to
Settings > Device maintenance > Battery > (Select a power saving mode mid/max > Customise.
You will see an option "background network usage - Allow apps that are running in the background to use Wi-Fi and mobile networks"
Hope this helps :good:
