Is there a way, maybe using mem maid, to turn wifi on at boot or upon wake up ?
What would the command be.
Whenever you soft reset, WIFI id turned off. I am sure this is to protect the battery life no ?
There are little programs like WifiTempON.exe how turn Wifi on (and off) you can put them into the startup folder.
Hi!
Afetr installing some SW like Pocket weather, or Ilauncher 3.0.01, I'm experiencing wifi disconnections when I turn the display light off. When I turn it on pushing the button on the side, the wifi connection just reconnect.
I tried an hard reset and everything is fine. But after reinstalling those sw the problem comes back.
What should I do?

Hmmm.... I thought this was normal behaviour to save battery power. Why would you want WiFi to stay connected if your device is in suspend mode?
BTW hitting the power button puts the device into a suspend mode (not just turn off the back light), in this state the OS is almost non functional, to save power. I thought the WiFi disconnecting was normal and expected behaviour. As you say it auto reconnects on wake up and is ready to go again.
My WiFi has ever worked this way. I don't think this is a malfunction
Hi Guys,
I got my HD2 today and i have to say i am impressed!
I only have one problem which i am not able to resolve.
When i turn on WiFi, it wont turn off during sleep mode (when i turn off the screen). i need to manually turn it on or off. this is how it came out of the box.
I wonder if other HD2 users are having the same problem / found a solution?
I tried advanced config tool, and i unchecked the "wifi during sleepmode" setting, but after each reboot the settings just come back.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi mate, you should look this

I thought that guy just want to keep WIFI on but you did.
thanks man but it does not help me with my problem. I cant seem to be able to get WiFi to auto turn off when in standby. the reg tweak will work until you reboot the device. after reboot the WiFi again won't turn off when in sleep mode unless I manually turn it off.
Bump.
Can any other HD2 owner please confirm if this is happening on his device too?
Same problem.
HDtweak and AdvanConfig does not work. After soft reset, wifi-on-standby is back ON (checked).
Been trying to find a Auto-Disconnect for GPRS(HSDPA) but the above 2 apps does not work too.
have you tried to change wifi power settings to high? I think it does work then. I guess the medium setting is something special...it keeps the wifi connection alive in standby, but also doesn't consume much power. I have an exchange connection active, so i always need an internet connection. The moment i turn on wifi at home, it stays on, even in standby, and my data connection over 3G disconnects. My exchange still works perfectly...and no huge power drain! My wifi power setting is on the medium setting...
Yes, I can confirm I'm encountering this issue too - on my HD2.
Strange, 'cos I wasn't at first, I'm sure - I remember the wi-fi notification icon flashing when resuming from sleep.
glenner05, can you confirm that you can get wi-fi to sleep please?
Hmm.. thought it might be connected to the htckeepwifionwhenunattended registry value but mine's set already to 0.
There're others trying to do the opposite!

Anyone else found a solution?
I think HTC made this by design. If you turn GPRS data off and leave Wifi on while in standby you will be surprised how low the power utilization is.
I tested and with GPRS data off and Wifi ON, in standby you lose about 2% battery per hour...that's nothing.
It seems that on the HD2 the Wifi power consumption is really optimized so no real need to turn

Mine is on default Wi-Fi settings and when it goes into standby, wi-fi goes off.

Yeah goes of in sleep mode, if you get wifi toggle, you can choose to keep it on or turn it off when you like .
Shame the grps is still a problem....
pgamble and jrvenge: you really mean wifi switches off on the device when it goes to sleep? Ie. you see it disconnect from your router or something?
jrvenge: what did you mean by, "if you get wifi toggle"?
clubtech: when I read your post I agreed with you, maybe. I can't now be certain I remembered correctly that I'd seen wifi reconnect. And yes, the power consumption does seem low
There is a cab floating about here that enables you to force the wifi on always or turn it off.
If you forc on it stays on, if you turn of it goes off.
Return to normal and the hd2 does its power saving thing, so im all sorted there, just need a timeout on the gprs now.
If you cant find it let me know. It works a treat.
can youplease post the cab ? I have been looking for something like this .
Sure pm me your mail and i will send it
GPRS Disconnecting software here fella's, tested and working on my HD2 100%
May also turn off wifi but i've not loked yet, just about to leave for work so will check later!! lol

Ok just tried and it does not do what we want with WiFi
Yes ... if device goes to standby, when it comes out .. you see wi-fi searching to connect again ... so it definitely disconnects and the reconnects when it comes on again.
Paul.
Yup your right!
If it's in balanced or best battery mode then it turns off in standby and reconnects/searches again when you press a button to bring up the lock screen.
I don't get what is going on here. I tap the wifi button in either quick settings or wifi settings, it shows on/green briefly (0.5sec), then switch slides back to off. I disabled tasker, thought something wacky could be going n there in my modes, but problem persists. Today I finally noticed that putting phone in airplane mode, then turning wifi on worked, wifi stayed on. After turning airplane mode off, now wifi keeps turning itself off again
Power saving is off
Wifi Smart network switch is off
In advanced Wifi settings:
notification off
passpoint off
sort by strength
keep wifi in during sleep is always
always allow scanning is on ( I think I have tried changing this in the past couple weeks and no effect)
autoconnect to at&t hotspots is on
I did some searching but couldn't find anything relevant. I have been burning up mobile data because of this! Any ideas?
Hi,
I have a weird Issue I have an MT8667 based android head unit that after starting the car and it wakes up from sleep exactly after 2.5 mins it will turn off mobile data and turn it back on. It does this every time.
If I disable sleep mode and it does a full boot when car starts this issue doesn't happen so its somehow related to waking up from sleep.
The problem this is causing it that waze drops internet connection when this mobile data toggle happens and I have to restart waze to get the connection back.
Any ideas on how to prevent this toggle from happening?
Thanks.
