Im having a problem with my wifi hotspot not completely turning off after I use it. the green icon stays on but the hotspot itself is inactive and cannot be turned back on unless I reboot. Is this happening to anyone else?
I use EasySMS app to sens text messages from my phone by typing them on my laptop. Laptop connects to EazySMS through Wifi. It works when the screen is ON, but when it goes off, the http interface no longer works (page not found errors). I then need to turn on the screen again to regain connectivity.
EasySMS has an option 'Keep wifi connected (drains battery)' and I already have it ON.
At the same time, AirDroid works fine over wifi even with screen off.
What could be the problem?
Hi
Tray
Go to the settings - wireless & networks - Wi-Fi settings- then click right - Advanced-second option change to never.

Turned out DISABLING "'Keep wifi connected" made it work. How logical...
Hi all,
I have a problem while connecting to WiFi hotspot feature. I have Feravolt v3 JB rom, Ferakernel.
I am able to activate the Wifi hotspot feature in the phone and its broadcasting fine until I try to connect from my laptop's wireless adapter. The SSID is detected in the wireless networks and when i try to connect, it acquires the ip address and as soon as I get the message 'wireless connected', the phone LED color changes and the phone reboots. I tried both pdanet+ and also the hotspot feature in the rom. both times the phone restarts. I did factory reset and tested hotspot feature before installing any other apps. still the same result. I also tried keeping the phone charged while connecting to hotspot. No luck. I am able to do usb tethering, reverse tethering without any problem. I did not overclock. Just using default settings that came with the rom. disabled sleep policy, kept the screen always on......
My only guess is that might be battery problem and if so any idea how to overcome this problem without buying a new battery.
Anyone had similar problem before or its a first?
Appreciate if someone can guide me if I need to enable or disable any feature.

My wifi doesn't automatically connect when a known wifi is in range unless and until I turn the screen on. Means when it's sleeping, it won't connect to any known wifi. If its already connected to a wifi network and if the screen is turned off after that, it stays connected. But lets say power goes off and wifi disconnects because of turning off of the router. When power comes back, and router is automatically switched on, the phone doesnt reconnect automatically when in standby. It connects immediately as soon as I switch on the display. Wifi scanning, keep wifi on during sleep and all those options are enabled. But it still doesnt automatically connect to any known wifi when in standby...I have to turn on the display for that.
Any solutions?
Same issue on lg g3 and xperia z2
