Wireless disconnect upon screen lock?

Hey guys,
I recently just got my g1 dev, everything's great, except I noticed that whenever the screen is locked, the wireless connection gets disconnected after 1 or 2 minutes and reconnected when I unlock or press any buttons on the phone.
How can I resolve this issue? Anyone else having the same problem also?

Why would you want to? This saves the battery

It would be useful for IM clients or e-mail notification applications.

I've noticed the same thing because I was chatting on IM with a friend over a WI-FI connection but didn't have reception (3G, EDGE or other) so I kept getting logged off when my screen timed out.
Unfortunately, I believe that all you can do is go to Settings>Sound&Display>Screen Timeout (at the bottom under Display settings) and set to "Never Timeout". Or you can download an app like Toggle Settings from the Market to make it easier.
This will kill your battery a lot faster though but at least you won't have to keep logging back in. Maybe keep your phone on the charger and dim your display?

Hey, thanks for the reply!
Yup... I think that's all can be done right now to maintain a connection.
Hopefully there will be an option in the future

Delay notification

I noticed a delay with the notifications, I thought that was due to the network. Someone else has trouble.?

Yes, it is a general problem, more or less, of EMUI...
You need to find a way to some application (mail client, whatsapp, skype etc) to remain active after screen is off...
When screen is off, EMUI close applications which consume battery, instead you put it on whitelist...
I notice that problem persist even on EMUI 5.0 on Nougat...

Ah, I thought it was not new year-round and that there is not a network problem.
But, that's quite its the problem, in charge, the notifications happen right away.
But on standby, there is a delay.

Yes, in stand-by appear problem, when screen is off...
When is in charge mode is not need to close the applications, battery is charging, is plenty of power...

Random apps will think I have no network connection, when I obviously do... help!

Hey guys,
This problem has been going on for a week or two now. Phone worked great when I first got it, but something must have changed (newest Verizon update, perhaps?)
Let me preface this by saying I've seen this happen both on Wi-fi and 4G. When on Wi-fi, and it happens, I've tried turning Wi-fi off and still get the same errors.
The apps affected seem to be random. A couple days ago it was Google Maps, I was getting the "offline navigation" prompt. Today it was Chase (couldn't screenshot it), TeamViewer, IMDb and so on.
Here are some screenshots. Note the time in the pictures.
- First encountered the problem when opening TeamViewer.
- Did a Speedtest to confirm that yes, I'm really on 4G as the phone shows, and it's quite a stable and fast connection too.
- Let's try some more apps. Here's Target's Cartwheel
- Delta app? Same problem.
- TeamViewer Host app. Same problem as the client.
- IMDb. One more random one not working.
- Lastly, I went back to Pokémon Go to confirm I DO still have network connectivity (not sure why the screenshot got ghosted like that, but you can see I just redeemed items from a Pokéstop I was near with no errors)
So as you can see, the phone itself, as well as certain apps, work fine. But others don't. I tried turning airplane mode on and back off, disabling/enabling mobile networks, nothing works. The only thing I can do is reboot the phone.
Any ideas? This gets incredibly annoying as I can't seem to go a whole day without *some* app whining that it has no network access. Some apps work flawlessly every time (like the aforementioned Pokémon Go) but others don't.
By the way, that little screenshot button in the bottom left is from this neat app called Custom Navigation Bar. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with this problem, though, all it does is add buttons.

Do you have powersave mode on? I've had some problems with it enabled..

No I don't have power save mode on. Should I turn off the power monitoring of apps as well? Didn't think that mattered as long as power save mode was off.

I turned all the power saving stuff off and still have this happening. As in, I set it to not even monitor how much power each app is using.

Connections go to sleep with Oreo

Hello everyone, I've been running Oreo on my G6 for a couple of days now, and one thing I noticed is that when the screen is off the wifi or data go to sleep too, I mean for example I am not receiving Whatsapp messages unless I turn on the screen and open the app, no matters I left it open in the background. Is it like a new feature of Oreo to save battery while screen is off or something? It really is annoying, I also made sure that "keep wifi on when screen is off" is enabled in the wifi settings, but it doesn't work. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on here? Thank you very much

I have the same with Oreo and WhatsApp

well, you need to go into settings, general, exclusions of power saving and then swipe right the whatsapp and network app. do this on apps you really want to be notified right when receive something...
otherwise you only will know you have something when unlock the device.
that way you get the notification even with the device locked.

I've already tried this, it doesn't work. The problem is not specifically with whatsapp, in fact I tried to enter with whatsapp web while the screen of the phone was off and the website kept telling me that my phone was not connected to the internet, but as soon as I unlocked it also whatsapp web found it and logged in. It's like I said in the title, the connections of the phone go to sleep when the screen is off, is there any option I am missing with this new Oreo software?

and thats what i say, you need to exclude whatsapp, network and wifi from power savings.
its the only way i see to solve the problem. no more can be done.

My LG G6 already does this on 7.0. I need to look into this...

Try to uninstall and install whatsapp again

Android 9.0 - delayed notifications

Hello,
recently I decided to update my Mi A1 to Android 9.0. Unfortunately it turns out that I have a big problem with notifications. Sometimes they come "normally", at the time they should. However, it often happens that notifications appear with a delay of 10-30 minutes. Sometimes they don't even come at all until I turn on the screen. In this case of course I am talking about the lack of notifications when the phone is unused. However, I once had a case when notifications from Facebook Messenger did not come for more than 3 hours, despite the use of the phone - car navigation, browsing the Internet, notes, etc. Messenger didn't show notifications of new messages until I opened it. I've tried to turn off the adaptive battery mode, but it did not help. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Everything worked well on Android 8.0, but I do not feel like going back to it again.
