Hi,
I'm keep getting this data roaming message over and over again in the notification area. I don't have a data plan. I use only wifi. Iam not sure if this has also something to do with my battery drain issue. Is there maybe a way to disable the message coming up or to find out which app is causing maybe the message coming?
I'm running on darky 9.3 and speedmod k19c.

If you dont have a data plan press the power button and disable the data network, for two reasons: apps would not try to connect and your carrier wouldnt charge you per kilobyte.

That is the funny thing. It is disabled and the notification still comes up. Its very annoying even when it is disabled that the data roaming message pops up in the notification area. Is it maybe a bug in darkys 9.3 version?

Probably .

Go in to settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks and make sure data roaming is turned off - not ticked.
Other than that, not sure.

I've had the same since day 1, mostly after unplugging from my pc. I don't use data network or 3G, and it's not ROM/theme dependant.
Never found a solution, so I stopped caring about it...
Like i said. Its disabled. Its very annoying.

I have a similar warning regularly, very annoying. I have a data plan but I do not tick the data roaming.
This problem did not occur before. It only happens after updating to 2.2.1. I did not root and lagfix. Anyone can help?
Wish I could help... As said, it doesn't matter if I'm on a custom ROM or stock (started on 2.1).
I disconnect from my pc always via "safely eject media", internal SD first, then external, then turn off USB connection on the phone, but it makes no difference.
I had stopped caring, but this thread has made me start again. A curse on you all!
There seems to be no reason to blame Kies, but since it's a crock, I will. Don't see why its absence from my pc should absolve it. I n fact, it wouldn't surprise me if Kies was responsible for the unrest in the middle East. And LUFC's defensive woes.
MOT.
Lol .
I think whatever is causing this problem is also the reason for.the battery drain. Somehow whenever the wifi is active the battery usage inrcreases up to 5-7 times. Playing a.game does not use that much battery.
i noticed another bug in 9.3. If u get into the task manager and u press the back button u should be back at your home screen and the task manager should close. However everytime i press the back button when iam in the task manager it starts randomly a.application, if i press again the back button another app is staring up and so on.

Last night I installed a few toggle widgets. First for auto rotation then for sound profiles then the Bluetooth one and in the end for Wi-Fi.
However after installing the Wi-Fi widget.. I noticed Wi-Fi would turn itself on without even asking my permission. This I noticed when I woke up today morning and saw an unexpected amount of battery drain. I immediately checked and the Wi-Fi was on. I remember correctly that I had switched it off in night (which comes under my daily habits after hitting the bed). Anyhow I immediately got rid of that widget by uninstalling but issue still persists.
Can anyone suggest anything to stop phone from turning Wi-Fi on itself?
Below is the app and my Wi-Fi's advance settings.

By the way.. I must add.. My phone is totally stock. And I I have had no problems with any of the apps prior to installation of this widget.

Sometimes apps like this can be a little flaky. I have HD widgets that I use to turn on my wifi and it can misbehave also. I have compensated by having a app that turns the wifi off at a particular time of day. You can also set it to turn wifi off when the screen is off. Other than that I would suggest looking for a widget that works better. There is a ton out there.
It was my bad that I downloaded this widget. I don't want to download some app to ''manage'' Wi-Fi setting off. I want to make it how it was prior this widget installation... Turning on and of myself. Is there any way.... Without the help of another app or widget

I think i need to change KEEP WIFI ON DURING SLEEP option to Never.
Can anyone attach a snapshot of his advance settings in wifi option? Like i have attached above
I believe it's the "battery guru" app you have installed... that's primarily what it does, keep you on Wi-Fi as much as possible

Emmmm.. You sure?
Because it started last night after I installed that widget. It "never" happened before that. :s
Can u post ut advance settings page's screenshot? Just need to match settings.
Pretty sure... it was happened to me, I noticed it after the learning mode was completely

So far I think this was the cause.. Snapdragon BatteryGuru.
Go to the settings in BatteryGuru and turn OFF the "Manage Wi-Fi" option. It's been an hour I have turned it off and wifi hasn't turned itself on. Therefore, I believe this option was causing wifi to show up.
I remember a friend of mine turned this option ON (the same day when I installed that wifi toggle). I just realized that after reading QUIETLYloud's post. Thanks a bunch mate.
This will help people in future.
I have the 32GB black S 4 on AT&T. Starting just 4 or 5 days ago, my battery has drained within the span of 6 hours or so. I figured out that it happened every time I used Google Maps, not any other app. When I turn GPS off in the quick settings and completely close the app (using the recent apps menu), the GPS still runs in the background. The only way I can fix this is by restarting the device. I have turned off all the Location Settings for Maps, and have even uninstalled updates, but to no avail.
If I reflash the stock firmware using Odin, will it fix the issue (without losing data? What check boxes do I select?
Thanks!
P.S. I'm stock and unrooted.

How do you know gps is still running in the background? If you turn it off in the quick menu or settings you might still see location services running but it can't use gps if it's turned off.
I've checked using BetterBatteryStats and the battery settings menu, and both say that GPS is still running.

I've remarked that when my Galxy S4 is locked/sleep mode there is wifi and GPS that are always on.
I've done the following :
Keep wifi on when on sleep : only when plugged in
Wifi and mobile network location : Offà
Mobile data is turned off
I don't know what else to do in order that those 2 things stop using battery life when on sleep mode...
PS: You can see that on my battery usage statistic, GPS ON (almost always) and Wifi too. Some off moments were there because I turned them off to do some testings.
Use juice defender
Try factory retore settings

I prefer not using any other third-party application in order to make this. It must be something in the normal settings that may cause this. I'll try a factory restore, but I don't think this is what will solve the problem because I just received the phone...
OK so my battery was amazing for the first two weeks. Starting this week my GPS is running constantly and maps is draining my battery. I will clear all the apps and turn off location services and the GPS still kicks back on and location Services gets re-enabled. I cleared the app data for maps and I've done a few resets nothing helps. Its really killing my battery and I really don't want to do a factory reset. Any ideas? Its driving me crazy....

Turn GPS on if it isnt already. Open maps and wait until it gets a lock on your location then switch away from Maps.
This has been a bug with Maps for forever now....if you open it but dont let it get your location before you close it, it wakelocks the phone. Once it gets a lock and you switch away from it, it seems to release the wakelock. Not quite sure why Google hasnt fixed it, as the G2 is the third phone Ive been on that has this issue.
That's weird. Ive had TONS of phones in the last couple of years and I've never seen it before this one..
