WiFi instead when locked

Is it me or it should be like that? When my phone is going to losj screen it just changes from WiFi to 3G connection and when i am unlocking it goes to WIFI

Its annoying, I get the exact same thing. If I leave it locked for a few minutes, it switches WIFI off, and restarts it.

Its automatically set that way. To leave it on: goto settings > wireless & network >wifi settings> press menu button then goto advance > set WIFI sleep policy to NEVER and you should be good.

WiFi and data settings question (HD2)??

Hi,
I am trying to figure out the different options in:
Settings => connections => advanced => select network.
What i want to do is keep wifi and data both on, so that when i open the phone from standby wifi would work in my house for data and when i head out 3G would take over the data, also when my phone is in standby mode and i have scheduled it to download my email, it should do it in standby mode via 3G or wifi without me manually tweaking the settings or manually downloading the email.
Right now, the upper option in set to T-mobile data and the lower option is set to "My work network".
please let me know,
i am sure alot of you already know the answer but i am not sure of the options.
Thanks alot in advance

[Q] how to turn my phone off with wifi on?

i signed the data plan only contract with UK O2. they block the calling feature on my dell streak which i only can send and receive text.
I am looking for a way to turn off phone module at the mean time keeping wifi on. unfortunately, seem i only can turn phone module off by setting in airplane mode. in such case, i can't use wifi for surfing.
is there any way around this? thx in advance!

Tap the battery icon in the top bar. This should bring down a menu, tap the tick box next to 3G, EDGE, GPRS networks. This will turn off the phone network data connection and leave the Wi-fi on.
This is sadly the closest to getting the phone to how you want, other than taking the sim card out.

I've noticed this problem on a Samsung Captivate and can put it in airplane mode (which also turns off wifi) and then separately turn wifi back on without changing phone.

You can do it with 2.1 rom, I'm using it now to type this..
put it in airplane mode.
then go to settings, wireless networks, wifi and turn it on .
the quick dropdown menu (from the signal status) will also let you turn wifi on when its in airplane mode but not on the 1.6 rom unfortunately.

i c. it's the ROM! damn...
u r right. when yr phone in airplane mode, it won't get charged at all.

[Q] Wifi goes off on stand-by

Hello to all I have the following problem: When the phone goes in standby i noticed that after a few minutes the phone disconnects from the internet then resume immediately as soon as I touch the phone and the screen turn on.
I have this problem with both Wifi and with the data connection.
I tried to solve the problem with the wifi option enabled in (Settings -> WiFi -> Advanced -> Wifi sleep policy) setting it to Never. But I notice that practically when i wake up the phone from standby , he is not using the wifi connection , but the data connection, and after a few second he will re-connect to wifi.when I'm not using more wifi, but the data connection.
From what I understand after X minutes in Stand by Android will disable the wifi and uses the data connection, and when i "wake up" the phone by turning the phone screen after a few seconds reconnects with wifi.
It 'really frustrating to have internet to that goes "on and off" especially when i am at work and the signal for the data connection is not present, in this case i can't even receive email or whatapp message when the phone in in stand by
Is there a way to force the phone to always use wifi even when it is in standby mode without the "support" of the data connection?
Hi!

up please

well actually if wifi policy is set to never, it should NEVER turn wifi off when the phone is in stand-by (at least it doesnt turn off on my phone), thats just how it works.. have u tried turning ur data connection off ? does it still disconnect ?

If i disable the data connection, the wifi connection just turn off after x minutes when the phone is in the stand by (even if i set to "Never" the wifi sleep policy) and will turn on after few second when i turn on the display. So what can be the problem?
N.B. I have DISABLED all "power save" option and there IS NOT such app like "battery safe" etc...,i have also tried to reset my phone. But the problem is always the same.

Well, actualiy, the policy says: "Keep Wi-Fi ON durung sleep", so you should set it to "Always".

So, did you fix the problem?

Cellular Data and Bluetooth not automatically starting

I''m on a G5 Plus Unlocked, build NPNS25.137-35-5.
When I restart the phone, Bluetooth and cellular data don't seem to automatically start. The phone has developer options on but no root.
Data Saver is on.
How can I get these to enable automatically?

Have you tried it with Data Saver turned off, in Safe Mode, or after a Network Settings Reset?
