Is my mind paying tricks on me or did Samsung say something about wifi safe zone where phone is unlocked automatically when connected to certain networks

I thought this too, you can add your wifi network to a home zone but I can't find any setting to disable my screen lock when attached to that network?

Hello everyone, I just have a quick question about the internet.
I have an unlimited data plan for my atrix, but I have a tiny Wi-Fi signal in my room which means it won't select the 3g internet connection, but I want it to because The signal is stronger. Please Help !

Hmmmmm....
Did you think to turn of the WIFI?
I know it is really a high-tech solution but I think it might work.....
Yeah I turned off the wifi but it turns on by itself and connects to.my AP

Yeah its mostly the same except I don't have the Auto Connect option

The only thing I can think of is that this may have something to do with setting WiFi to never sleep.
Is there any way to turn off the wifi message in the ongoing section of the drop down menu, when you are connected to a network? I can't find a way to disable it and its taking up precious space on my bar.

I beleive he's talking about the notification in the pull down menu that shows the wifi he's currently connected to, not the open network notification.
It bugs me too. I don't think we can take it off.

You have to search from the non-connected devices, not the S4
How do I do that?

Pull up WiFI on the device you want connect, and have the list of available networks displayed, your hotspot will be one of them.
Yeah then you click on it I did that and it kept telling me my password was wrong.

Verify your password on your S4 in the Hotspot options by checking the box for "Show Password"
Use WPA2 Security
Try again
If you're positive it's right, try it as an open network.
O.k. thanks!!!

Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Try it unsecured
When I try to connect it says your wireless network is connected. But the local network and the Internet will not connect.

I'm sure this has been asked before but I am finding nothing about it in my search so I'm asking for help here. I will attach a few screens to show my dilemma. I'm stuck on mobile network state disconnected. I am pretty sure my APN settings are correct. I am rooted and running Slim Bean build 8 as well.

Go to your APN and hit restore to default. Reboot and let it sit for a few minutes. Report back.

im on a gt9500 and tried this, but did not fix it for me. I have the issue while on GSM, WCDMA works fine.
Your phone doesn't come with default apns it is international. It reads the SIM and puts the generic APN settings in. You likely need to manually Input them

I had this problem on my Canadian Telus 9505 S4.. I tried the things in this Thread, and it didn't seem to work. What I ended up doing was downloading an application called "Tweakker" and it automatically detects your APN settings for you to enter manually, I did that, and then rebooted and it seemed to work for me. Hope I Helped somehow.
So, I'm trying to pinpoint exactly what keeps using this process (com.google.process.location) any ideas? I've looked at other threads... No luck. I do use Google now... Would this affect this even if I've placed location history and location reporting off? Another app which I think is the issue is "find my friends" would this happen to be using up my location even though I have put the location reporting off in Google settings? Thanks for any help.

However, I don't want to always have to put on and off location settings when I use something like maps.

Your not turning off your GPS. Your turning off the wireless network which cause the Google services drain.

I think I solved such an issue on one of our s4 by uninstalling maps app (restore original) and reinstalling
