Prevent 4g from sleeping?

Yea. Did some googling and found a way to edit wimax through that ##3284# code. But the 4g seems to sleep faster than before? Can anyone tell me how to do this effectively? I use my epic for my home network and its a pain. Just want it to stay on like the wifi sleep policy. Btw i tried setting it to 300 100 and 60. Anyone know what that number means in terms of time?
Thnxnadvnc!

What rom/modem are you using?
4g seems to sleep more after I flashed DK05 or DK28, didn't seem to do it much in DI18

Those are idle times, in seconds, I believe. Meaning... when the device is not actively using 4g, it will time out (sleep) after so many seconds. I think 10 seconds is the default before the 4g sleeps.. Increasing that number should prevent your device from sleeping for a longer period of time.

I did some googling, according to this page, the number is in minutes.

I have not tried this myself to see if it helps, need to get back home first where I have 4G coverage.
Anyone else have any luck with this setting?
--------------------
Edit: It looks like the parameter is in seconds according to this post on the EVO forum, which makes more sense

Yea its actually working for me. If theres nothing using bandwidth 4g will shut off. But if I have pda running 4g will stay on even when the phone sleeps. before it would shut off after a few minutes into sleep mode. Works like a charm. if you dont mind the sprint rep questioning as to why you want that number lol.

How did you access the Wimax settings? This is what I see:

You'll access the data programming area on your phone by entering ##3282# on your phone number pad. The OP mistakenly typed in ##3284#.
You'll need your MSL to explore or change the settings. If you google, you can find ways to get that MSL number without calling Sprint.. You'll just enter some commands in a terminal app.... I'm not sure where I found it.. but it's out there.

ATT GS3 here ,this app doesnt work , there is no option for GSM , all options are some form of LTE.

The Phone Info app is available in the Play Store.
You must first turn off Radio using the button below the Network options. Then you can select a different Radio Network. Hope this helps.

wifi priority

Hey everyone
I think I already configured this once, but I do not remember if it was on my old phone or on my beloved G2. Is there a possibility to set the wifi priority, so that my ssid A is chosen over ssid B? If not, which app would you recommend? Hope my english is good enough to let you understand my question i m very tired
Thx for the replies.

Settings -> WiFi -> Advanced Wi-Fi -> Manage networks
You can arrange priority in stock.

Nothing weird. Use less brightness on your device and is all.

The only unusual thing there seems to be the carrier signal which might be weak and those could the phone out of power-saving, try to see if activating power-save mode makes any difference, also if changing the network data mode from LTE/auto to 3G/WCDMA might improve things.

Where do you find 3G on the network data mode?

3G in my device is second option:
1. LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto)
2. WCDMA/GSM (auto)
3. Only WCDMA
4. Only GSM

Thanks Joku1981 & xclub_101, but i have one last question. If i use a custom ROM/Kernel i will see a difference in my battery life or not?

Hi there. I had the same problem i think. I dont want do promote an app but ive used sdmaid for cleaning up my note. Now the battery drain is almost gone and the cycle is almost like the first days. Maybe it helps you too?
Greetz!

[Q] How can I get rid of the "wlan_ctrl_wake wakelock"?

Hey guys,
I have a serious problem with my Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005.
Since last month my battery drains like hell and at the same time, my wifi works not properly. It is on but only wenn I get into the Wifi-Settings it scans the location for signals. So it doesn't get into a wifi-router itself, I have to scan the area on my own and only after that it logs into the saved routers.
I used "Wake Lock Detector" to see which application doesnt let my processor sleep and I found that 90% of the time the "wlan_ctrl_wake" lets my phone awake. What can I do? I did nothing (I think) it would make it this way! Is my Wifi damaged? Or is it only a software problem? When I go by train it is the same problem. I don't think the problem is my router or something else but my phone. It is a problem of my phone.
When I turn Wi-Fi off, it works very well.
Sincerly,
Jan

@poanda in wifi settings press menu and advance there uncheck always allow scanning snd see if this works.
Also select never in keep wifi on during sleep.

So you're saying practically I shouldn't use Wi-Fi anymore? Because I know both are checked and they were never a problem. I don't think that's the solution (but I will test your first idea).
I think it is a deeper problem. I had never such an high wake up time and I use it since April'14.
And I forgot to tell that I updatet the ROM to KOT49H.N9500XXUGNI4 (Buildnumber) two weeks before the problem.

@fatman0 @poanda I didnt say stop using wifi I gave you som3 suggestions m

I'm not sure what could be the reason in your case. But you can try this:
Enter the code *#0011#, then press Menu button > WiFi, and make sure WIFI Power Save Mode is ON?

It was checked all the time
Does this screenshot help?

Ok it's already ON.
