Has the problem with delayed notifications on IPv6-enabled WiFi finally been resolved?
I didn't know this was an issue?

Well, everyone that I know with an S3, S4, S5, or S6 and an IPv6-enabled WiFi at home, will not get any push notifications as long as the screen is turned off. Messages start coming in only when the screen is turned on again. It is some bug/feature of the WiFi-firmware to preserve energy. Only that it breaks connectivity.
Nobody?

I just bought a Nexus 4 (4.2.2), the problem is thta whatsapp/gmail/facebook (all apps) only show notifications when the screen is turned off (so I'm not notified if a message arrives with a led, sound nor vibration) until I actually check my phone.
I have deactivated the wifi baterry saving option, set the wifi to always on (instead of off during sleep), and nothing :S
I had a motorola razr and this problem never happened to me.

Are you using an app like LightFlow or just stock notifications?

My Nexus 4 shows the same thing unless I actually turn off the wifi. I just leave my wifi on so when I come home it auto connects.
Weird minesays the same. I had my wifi off for at least 5hours

You have to go into WiFi settings and select one of the other features in advanced settings
TWEAKED 2.5
Because your WiFi radio keeps actively searching for an active signal unless you turn it off.

I believe the option in the advanced settings is "Scanning always available". If you turn that option off it should stop.

Simple, because the WiFi radio is on.
I have found WiFi battery usage to be very odd on the Note, at least Note 1. I used to have it turn off on screen off (settings default), but that caused battery drain. I then used Llama (Location Aware Mobile App?) to turn it off when the screen was off after a minute. Still drained.
I eventually left it on all the time I was at home or work, and it was much, much better. I guess going on and off all the time was the drag, or caused another issue.
I then used Llama to turn it off whenever I leave home or work, and turn it back on when I arrive. Happiness achieved.
I just drag down the notification bar and hit the toggle. One less active app to hog memory and battery...
Then again I also turn off mobile data when it is not needed. That spares me a full 4 days, and that's just on the s3. Imagine how long a note3 would last... (I'll know when my order finally arrives...)

Thanks for this! I thought I was going crazy earlier as I knew I switched off wifi!!!
Got to work and saw it on lol!
Always scanning mode now disabled!

I switched it off in advanced settings but WiFi always comes on when I'm near an open network. It's annoying and drains battery, is there any way to truly stop it?

Anybody have a clue about how to do this?
This is driving me nuts.
I've got auto switching and scanning off, but it keeps coming up.
Ok it appears I'm a retard. Snapdragon Battery Guru has been switching my WiFi periodically to see if it can connect.

Anyone else having issues with the wifi turning off on its own? Got my S5 yesterday on AT&T. There have been a few times that the wifi will turn off and it can't be turned back on unless I restart.
I've experienced this with wifi settings as is out-of-the-box and when I changed the option to only have it on during sleep while plugged in.

Wi Fi involuntarily turning off and cannot turn on without rebooting
I'm having the same problem. S5 goes to sleep when waking the wifi is switched off and I cannot turn it on in settings. I have to reboot

Try this, go into settings, press wifi, then press the button consisting of 3 dots in the top right corner and then press advanced. where the settings state "keep wifi on during sleep", make sure it is set to always.
also check the wifi timer is not on either.
Let me know how you guys get on

Yes, that's the problem. It is fixed by not using the feature... Great, isn't it?

I have the exact same issue and am thinking to call warranty and see what they can do. This happens on any router, very annoying. You can avoid phone restarts btw, just put the phone in airplane mode and back in normal, when you do that it will be able to turn wifi back on. I am wondering is this bug on every att galaxy s5?
this bug occurs when you have the keep WiFi on during sleep option off. this saves a lot of battery, and to me avoiding this option isn't a fix to the problem, because on every android device I have I make sure WiFi turns off during sleep and never had issues reconnecting back when I wake up the device but galaxy s5 has that issue
Hi. I have a weird problem. When anyone rings me on WhatsApp my phone screen doesn't wake up, it stays on the always on display with the WhatsApp symbol there, so i have to double tap display to wake the screen to see who is calling. I've never had this problem before on any phone and my last phone was the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.
Also on my lock screen I'm just getting a symbol from whatever app messaged me and I then have to click the app symbol to see the message, whereas before it would have the header and part of the message written. I don't know what's happened. Hopefully someone can help me out? Thanks in advance.

Is it normal for the screen not to wake up when you get a WhatsApp call or video call? Is it a new feature to preserve battery or do I need to factory reset my phone? I've uninstalled it then reinstalled it and still the same. Is there a setting I'm missing? Thanks

You can enable Always on Display and set it to continuous.

My aod is set to continuous. When I get a WhatsApp call or WhatsApp videocall my screen does not wake up it just stays on the aod screen and I have to press the power button to wake the screen to see who is calling and to answer. Whereas if I get a normal voice call the screen wakes up automatically which is normal.
My issue is WhatsApp is not waking my screen.

I'm actually having the same problem too.
Another issue I also noticed is when I have WhatsApp calls, the phone does not go into deep sleep after (it's documented in other threads related to deep sleep).
I raised this issue to Samsung support, but no reply so far. I'm not expecting any tbh. I hope a firmware or Whatsapp update fixes these issues.

Oh, so WhatsApp is not waking up your screen either? And yeh I noticed my battery was draining really hard and followed that other thread about it. So i rebooted and its fine atm. Luckily I don't get alot of calls over WhatsApp.
Nobody else besides us two that WhatsApp is not waking up the screen for? Bit strange.

Yep, a reboot fixes the drain issue, my battery standby goes from below average to pretty decent after the reboot. I think more and more are noticing this issue as we're monitoring deep sleep problems.
I wonder if more have call not lighting up the screen issue. I noticed edge lighting not working for a lot on whatsapp, so could be related.
Having the same issue of WhatsApp call not waking up
Hello good folk.
WhatsApp calling is not waking up my screen with AOD on and when my phone is locked.
As soon as I take it off, however, the WhatsApp call wakes up my screen as per normal. This never happened before my last update. Even with AOD enabled, the calls would wake up the screen.
I went from nougat to oreo and then I did another auto update after that nougat to oreo update. When this update occurred, I started to notice the issue.
Hope something gets figured out.
