Hi if my Vega goes into sleep mode, when I wake it the wifi has dropped out and i have to go into the wireless menu to start it again. this is new since today but have not changed any thing that should affect this? any one else had this?
On the stock rom the wifi will turn off when entering sleep, this is to save power. It should turn itself back on within 5-10 seconds of waking. If it does not, there is a problem.
Some custom roms enable the wifi in sleep. Not tried for long enough myself, so cant comment on the battery life.
im using your rom... what should it do?
Does the wifi turn back on automatically in 5-10 secs after wake, or do you have to turn it on manually?
seems I was to eager. It comes back after 10 Secs. Sorry mate.

Hi Guys,
I got my HD2 today and i have to say i am impressed!
I only have one problem which i am not able to resolve.
When i turn on WiFi, it wont turn off during sleep mode (when i turn off the screen). i need to manually turn it on or off. this is how it came out of the box.
I wonder if other HD2 users are having the same problem / found a solution?
I tried advanced config tool, and i unchecked the "wifi during sleepmode" setting, but after each reboot the settings just come back.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi mate, you should look this

I thought that guy just want to keep WIFI on but you did.
thanks man but it does not help me with my problem. I cant seem to be able to get WiFi to auto turn off when in standby. the reg tweak will work until you reboot the device. after reboot the WiFi again won't turn off when in sleep mode unless I manually turn it off.
Bump.
Can any other HD2 owner please confirm if this is happening on his device too?
Same problem.
HDtweak and AdvanConfig does not work. After soft reset, wifi-on-standby is back ON (checked).
Been trying to find a Auto-Disconnect for GPRS(HSDPA) but the above 2 apps does not work too.
have you tried to change wifi power settings to high? I think it does work then. I guess the medium setting is something special...it keeps the wifi connection alive in standby, but also doesn't consume much power. I have an exchange connection active, so i always need an internet connection. The moment i turn on wifi at home, it stays on, even in standby, and my data connection over 3G disconnects. My exchange still works perfectly...and no huge power drain! My wifi power setting is on the medium setting...
Yes, I can confirm I'm encountering this issue too - on my HD2.
Strange, 'cos I wasn't at first, I'm sure - I remember the wi-fi notification icon flashing when resuming from sleep.
glenner05, can you confirm that you can get wi-fi to sleep please?
Hmm.. thought it might be connected to the htckeepwifionwhenunattended registry value but mine's set already to 0.
There're others trying to do the opposite!

Anyone else found a solution?
I think HTC made this by design. If you turn GPRS data off and leave Wifi on while in standby you will be surprised how low the power utilization is.
I tested and with GPRS data off and Wifi ON, in standby you lose about 2% battery per hour...that's nothing.
It seems that on the HD2 the Wifi power consumption is really optimized so no real need to turn

Mine is on default Wi-Fi settings and when it goes into standby, wi-fi goes off.

Yeah goes of in sleep mode, if you get wifi toggle, you can choose to keep it on or turn it off when you like .
Shame the grps is still a problem....
pgamble and jrvenge: you really mean wifi switches off on the device when it goes to sleep? Ie. you see it disconnect from your router or something?
jrvenge: what did you mean by, "if you get wifi toggle"?
clubtech: when I read your post I agreed with you, maybe. I can't now be certain I remembered correctly that I'd seen wifi reconnect. And yes, the power consumption does seem low
There is a cab floating about here that enables you to force the wifi on always or turn it off.
If you forc on it stays on, if you turn of it goes off.
Return to normal and the hd2 does its power saving thing, so im all sorted there, just need a timeout on the gprs now.
If you cant find it let me know. It works a treat.
can youplease post the cab ? I have been looking for something like this .
Sure pm me your mail and i will send it
GPRS Disconnecting software here fella's, tested and working on my HD2 100%
May also turn off wifi but i've not loked yet, just about to leave for work so will check later!! lol

Ok just tried and it does not do what we want with WiFi
Yes ... if device goes to standby, when it comes out .. you see wi-fi searching to connect again ... so it definitely disconnects and the reconnects when it comes on again.
Paul.
Yup your right!
If it's in balanced or best battery mode then it turns off in standby and reconnects/searches again when you press a button to bring up the lock screen.
Good Night!
NeoTouch S200 will have a 6 months and think it has a problem.
Sometimes when I turn off the screen when I click the button to connect the phone does not light up and I have to reboot to get back to normal.
I would appreciate being told if it was a problem in general or just mine.
But now I have the original ROM ACER
Sorry for my english google translate
Regards,
deep sleep problem.
have you tried disabling power saving features? microsd n wifi can sometimes cause device to go to deep sleep and not able to wake up...
Wifi Sleep when locked not working
Hello, I have a problem, my wifi sleep policy is turned on to "when screen turns off" but when my phone is locked, the wifi is still on! I just pressed the lock button after 5-10 mins but the wifi is still on.
How long does it take for you for the wifi to turn off?
Any suggestions?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Not a suggestion as such but I'm reading that using the wifi sleep policy is detrimental to the battery life. Can't confirm as I'm still experimenting.
Yeah battery life is destroyed if you use WiFi sleep policy. Set it to never for best battery life. It's counter intuitive.
But to answer your question, I think it takes closer to half hour for sleep policy to kick in. You would notice WiFi off if you woke up in the morning etc or after long periods like hours of inactivity.

I'm having the opposite issue. As soon as my screen goes off I lose WiFi connectivity and get disconnected on adbWireless which is a huge pain for me when I'm developing... Maybe I'll enable sleep policy and see if that fixes my issue! Lol! I'm on stock 2.3.1

There's an option in Settings>Application Settings>Development to not turn the screen off when charging, that should solve your adbWireless problem so long as your phone is charging.

this is exactly how it works on the Galaxy S
there is an option in settings to keep WiFi on when the screen is Off in the SGS
but not sure if the NS has the same option (still waiting for my phone to arrive)

I went to my wifi setting to make my wifi sleep once my screen shuts off but the setting doesn't stay. Is there a fix to this by any chance? Want my wifi to always sleep when my screen shuts off......

What do you mean it doesn't stay, it changes the setting to something else? When you have wifi set to sleep on screen off, it doesn't sleep immediately once the screen goes off, it takes awhile. I use "sleep when screen off" and I get great battery life.
Wait so is it good that my wifi turns off when my phone sleeps or not?

it depends on what you want
if you want to maintain connectivity then it's no good
if you want to save power, then it is good

Once I turn my screen off than turn it back on after a while my setting goes back to never even after I change the setting to shut wifi off once I shut off screen. Weird bit it does. I read in another forum that it saves battery but my setting keep changing back.

I've the same issue. I've try various app from the market for fix that, but all is the same. It's a hardware problem? The router will can cause this problem?
Thanks
All,
I've got a stock Nexus 6P, Android 6.0.1, build MHC19Q.
Sometimes the phone will go to sleep and sometimes it won't. In the settings, Display Sleep setting I have 30 seconds as the value, but I've seen my phone stay on for way longer, sometimes until I hit the power button.
I've tried several changes to the time but it doesn't seem to help the times it stays on, it just changes the time for the sleep when it does work.
To explain exactly, when I stop using my phone and I'm on the home screen, if I leave the phone alone for several minutes, it will not sleep, no matter what value I put in the setting. Other times it seems to sleep without a problem.
I've not been able to determine if some app is holding it awake, and I don't see any pattern the would point to any other condition that keeps the phone awake.
I looking for additional ideas to troubleshoot the problem, it just stays on and runs down the battery.
Ideas?

Download and install GSAM. It will tell you specifically which app is keeping the screen on.
If it days Android, System, or Media Playback is the highest, it may be a tweak / custom rom / kernel issue.
Hey everyone, I've been looking for a solution for this problem since I got the phone and I can't find an answer anywhere. When I am connected to my WiFi at home, and I turn the screen off, about 30 seconds later my wifi and data shut off. I have "keep wifi on when screen is off" set to on. I disabled switch to network with weak WiFi signal. I have factory reset my phone about 5 times and did a warranty clam.
Mine does the same. It just has a very poor wifi antenna I guess.
my LG-V20 does this same thing sometimes its very frustrating.
Settings>battery and power saving>scroll down to "wifi" and move the switch to the right (turn on ignore savings settings) This will tell Android to ignore power saving on wifi and let it operate normally.
