How do I stop it? I turn off wifi, but when I put the phone down for a few minutes, it automatically turns it back on. I want control of this, and not the phone.
Anyone?

I have my home wifi connected, and set to 'turn off when screen off'. The problem is that my phone doesn't seem to connect back to wifi if the wake the phone up after some time. This never was an issue with Captivate. But with this, even using a widget to turn on wifi doesn't seem to work. I need to go through all the way to wifi settings through the settings app manually turn it off and on.
Anyone else facing this issue?
I'm not because I have it set to always stay on. When I know I'm not going to he using the wifi heavily or I simply don't need it, I turn it off.

Hi all,
In recent weeks my bluetooth is turning off when it isn't being used. I only use it for hands free in the car and up until a few weeks ago it always stayed 'On' however now, once disconnected from the car radio, it turns off again.
If I turn it back on away from the car it will go to 'Off' shortly after turning it 'On'.
It's a touch annoying as it means I have to get in the car, turn the engine/radio on, unlock the phone, set bluetooth to 'On' every time I drive and want the phone on hands free.
When connected to the car radio, the bluetooth stays on without problem, so I am not entirely sure what is going on.
I have tried turning battery saver off, restarting the phone etc. but nothing has changed this behaviour.
Has anyone got any suggestions on what I can try next, I'm a bit stuck!
Thanks
Is there a setting (or standalone app), that will turn off wifi after a set amount of time after the screen goes off? I know the stock system had much worse battery life if wifi was kept on, and I'm assuming the same with CM7?
Yes I know I can just turn it off manually, but I'd rather it just turn itself off after say five minutes of me pressing the power button or it turning the screen off itself, then restart wifi when I turn it back on.
Thanks
The app Wifi Keep Alive can keep it on, or turn off when screen turns off unless plugged in. But it doesn't have a timer feature.
You don't need an app to turn off wifi when the screen is off with CM7. Just go into menu/ settings/ wireless & network/ wifi settings/ press menu/ advanced/ and then change the wifi sleep policy to whichever setting you'd like.
On the stock rom wifi will turn off when the screen turns off. I think it is actually annoying.
Hi, I'm having an annoying problem with the hands free mode, in that it doesn't turn off automatically when it looses connection. It turns on S-Voice and enables hands free mode just fine when it establishes a connection to my car Bluetooth but I have to manually turn it off every time.
Surely if it can turn on automatically it can turn off that way too no?
Can't seem to find any help on the matter, every question I can find is either about how to stop hands free mode working at all or to make it turn on automatically, but nothing about turning it off.
My phone keeps turning on WIFI whenever I turn it off. I've tried all the things that could cause it but they are not working
Would help if you listed the things you have tried
