I have my home wifi connected, and set to 'turn off when screen off'. The problem is that my phone doesn't seem to connect back to wifi if the wake the phone up after some time. This never was an issue with Captivate. But with this, even using a widget to turn on wifi doesn't seem to work. I need to go through all the way to wifi settings through the settings app manually turn it off and on.
Anyone else facing this issue?
I'm not because I have it set to always stay on. When I know I'm not going to he using the wifi heavily or I simply don't need it, I turn it off.

Hi,
I just had a problem with my Wlan, first it wont turn off, I rebooted. Now I wonder when it will switch to 3G when screen is off.
I'm using this setting but it seems not to work.
How much time will past until it switchs? Can anyone please tell me if this standby plan is selected when the 3G will be enabled? Just until you kill the screen by pressing the power button or after e.g. 15 min or like.

Is there a setting (or standalone app), that will turn off wifi after a set amount of time after the screen goes off? I know the stock system had much worse battery life if wifi was kept on, and I'm assuming the same with CM7?
Yes I know I can just turn it off manually, but I'd rather it just turn itself off after say five minutes of me pressing the power button or it turning the screen off itself, then restart wifi when I turn it back on.
Thanks
The app Wifi Keep Alive can keep it on, or turn off when screen turns off unless plugged in. But it doesn't have a timer feature.
You don't need an app to turn off wifi when the screen is off with CM7. Just go into menu/ settings/ wireless & network/ wifi settings/ press menu/ advanced/ and then change the wifi sleep policy to whichever setting you'd like.
On the stock rom wifi will turn off when the screen turns off. I think it is actually annoying.
I have wake lock activated on my phone (with PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK which turns off the screen after few seconds but which leaves everything else awake).

The problem that I have now, is that I am loosing ADB Wifi connection whenever that screen turns off, even that phone is in a wake lock. And I am unable to reconnect to it again after that (while screen is still off).
Does anyone know how to keep phone from disabling ADB Wifi connection?

Well i have it working with 2.3..... "Upgrades" always degrading my efforts tho
Please let me know if you figured this out... I think it has to do with the "security" of a "locked" screen.
I have screen lock off... So my idea seems wrong
I've just got an S6 E+ as a replacement for my note 4 and i can't get it to turn the wifi off with screen off. I've set it in advanced options which has no effect. I can't find the option for notifying about open networks in 6.0.1, thats the only thing i can think of. turned off everything in location settings to do with wifi. restricted most of my apps to power save. literally can't get it to turn off. Everytime i turn my screen back on the wifi symbol there already. My HTC thats running 6.0 always has the hsdpa symbol when you turn on the screen which then changes to wifi on reconnect.
Any help will be very much appreciated
Hey! So I recently purchased an Axon 7 and I am so far really enjoying the device. I have just one problem and its starting to annoy me.
Whenever I am viewing something in landscape mode, and I disable auto rotation because I don't want it to switch back to portrait, it automatically switches me into portrait mode when I turn off auto rotation.
Any idea on how I can fix this? Thanks.
I also have another question regarding the WiFi.
Whenever I unlock my phone and go into an app, eg: YouTube, it shows no internet connection. I go into settings app and I'm getting full bars, but under my network name it says "Connected, no internet".
Message goes away after a few seconds and WiFi starts working again.
any help? Also, the arrows near the WiFi icon are always blinking and everything seems to load slowly as if the WiFi needs to reconnect. I've already checked the advanced settings in WiFi and WiFi is set to always be on during sleep.
thanks
