[Q] Is my WiFi always on? - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm starting to second guess my self here and thinking I've been reading the battery stats all wrong this whole time. The WiFi bar is consistently full and blue when my WiFi is off. Does this mean my WiFi is always on?

There's a setting for that.

Yes it is. Go to the wifi settings and change "Scanning always available"

[Q] Annoying 4G/WIFI notifications after KitKat

Ever since I updated to KitKat, I get these notifications whenever I turn on/off wifi or my data.
I do this everyday when I get to work because the signal is bad in the building.
I use the quick toggle in the notifications bar, and then this asks you again if you want to turn it off.
Is there anyway to turn this off?
Carrier is verizon if that matters.
Thanks

Wifi consumption while wifi off?

I've noticed that in battery graph wifi appears as on mostly all the time. But actually it was disabled. I had also location turned off with its imprinted accuracy also off. Is this normal?
