Some carrier services (for instance SMS, MMS, voicemail, etc) are intentionally not available over the Internet - the carrier has them firewalled off so that they are only reachable from addresses on their own network. That is only subscriber connections are allowed - e.g. from the Mobile data connection (3G/LTE/1xRTT/etc) on your device. So apps that connect to those services do so by explicitly making sure that the Mobile Data connection is up.
So I guess the answer is that (on a *stock* device) it is not unusual for the Mobile Data interface to occasionally come up while you already have a good WiFi connection established.
It *might* be unusual for them to be on all the time together though; but I suppose that could also be dependent on what market apps you have installed.
Also maybe check your Settings -> WiFi -> menu button -> Advanced -> Auto network switch setting? (If that were enabled and your WiFi connection is sporadic...)

Ok thanks so much

[TIP] A simple way to Turn Off G/2G/3G/H without going into Air Plane mode

This is more of a work around to the problem of not having a compatible software app for the SGS to easily Switch between the different data modes to either save battery or prevent unnecessary 3G data on limited data plans
(I tried all the 2G/3G switchers and other alikes, but none were compatible with our SGS)
There's a simple way to Turn Off G/2G/3G/H without going into Air Plane mode is by simply creating a null or empty APN setting profile like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
using the same method you can create an APN profile that is only for MMS, this way you can still get SMS/MMS and Phone calls, without incurring extra data or wasting power on GPRS/EDGE/3G/3.5G
I used APN on/off fro Market....works great.

ahh... great suggestion, this one actually works!
APN on-off Widget
all the other ones i've tested previously didn't do what it's supposed to do, all of them only takes you to the APN page with was kinda useless
added to my list of good apps

Wifi turning itself on randomly

Anyone else has this problem?
Is there a way to see what process is responsible for these sporadic activations?

Under the Wi-Fi settings is an advanced section. If you have those sections checked to turn off Wi-Fi when unavailable or to disconnect when signal is weak (I have the former checked, the latter unchecked), you may want to uncheck both and see if that solves your issue.

Same problem here on sprint version. Bugs the hell out of me. Connection optimizer is off and boxes unchecked. Has to be a way to disable this.

[Q] Strange wifi issues

Hey guys, been having this problem for a while but finally had enough of it!
For a start, in the wifi list in settings it doesn't show me which network I am actually connected to.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In addition if i tap another wifi network which despite already previously been connected to it , it will still ask me for the password again, after which it keeps saying failed to connect, it wont let me connect to it
I have been getting around the problem by using WPS on my wifi router and "WPS Push Button" in the settings menu when I'm home to get it to connect to my home wifi as opposed to "BT OpenZone" every time, which is quite frustrating!
I'm rooted on stock rom , Build Number KOT49I.D80220h however this problem has been ongoing atleast since before the last 2 updates.
Any ideas/troubleshooting I can do??
Cheers amishra123
Tried resetting to factory defaults?
I haven't no. What's the best/easiest way to go about backing up before and restoring afterwards ?
LGBackup on the phone should suffice. Just make sure to copy the LGBackup folder to a safe location (like a PC/laptop).

Disable Wifi-Direct warning popup when turning on native hotspot?

Anyone know how to disable or remove the warming that devices will disconnect when turning on the native hotspot? It prevents me from enabling hotspot from the notification panel with the screen locked. Which I would like to do. I've attached a screenshot of the warning I am talking about.
Currently on my phone:
Wifi is set to off.
In Wifi advanced settings, I set wifi to never be on during sleep & turned off smart network switch (which is the renamed 'connection optimizer').
In more networks, nearby device scanning is off and under media share so is nearby devices.
I have disabled nearby devices, nearby service, wifi-direct & wifi-direct share apps. Yet the message persists. If I toggle wifi on then off the message will not appear for a time.
I have been searching everywhere I can think of and haven't been able to find a way. Either here on xda or on anything I can find via google. Its just inundated with useless (to me) info about enabling wifi hotspots and not disabling this message.

Voice over wifi stopped working all of a sudden

hi guys,
We have 2 Samsung s8 unlocked working pretty well... 3 days ago something strange happened, voice over wifi stopped working - we can still get ovice over LTE but not voice over wifi with the little phone icon.
I have tried every possible setting to no avail, restarted, airplane mode, toggle on and off both from Connections > Mobile Networks and the other one under Call > 3 dots > Settings > Wifi Calling and Wifi Preferred. nothing happens anymore.
also tried:
network reset on my phone
cleaned cache from boot menu
cleaned sim card plus checked all settings...
also tested with another wifi at my work and same story.
We didn't touch the software either. All it happened was a change in our wireless setup at home with new routers or something my landlord manages, but still does not justify why at my work doesn't work anymore as well.
Is there a magic toggle in one of those system hidden menus?
any ideas?
thanks
Gabrio
i've noticed this going to IWLAN, not sure that's normal or it ever happened before as well.... is that normal? on wifi
