I recently did a factory reset and format on my Vibrant and then rooted it, but kept the stock TW and everything. Recently, whenever I opened up an app that required an internet connection like textPlus or XDA, the wifi icon on the top bar would disappear and the app would simply not work. In the wifi settings, it says the my wifi network is found, but there is no signal strength, and under the option to turn wifi on or off it would say "unsuccessful." I can then turn wifi OFF and turn it on again and the network would then have like 3 or 4 bars and is functional, but whenever I would open up textPlus or XDA, it will show an animation of the app opening but I would still see my homescreen except nothing is responsive (and the wifi icon will disappear). I can get out of this by pressing the home button, but it'll freeze whenever I turn on the apps. Anyone have an idea of what's going on?
My Wi-Fi on my phone cuts out constantly on my phone making me miss Google talk messages and other important things like emails. It'll show that it is connected, but with zero bars. When I enter service mode (dial *#0011#) and turn off Wi-Fi power save, it works perfectly. However every time I reboot, it turns itself back on and keeps dropping connection. It's there a more permanent fix for this? Is not difficult or anything, but if I reboot and forget, I don't receive any messages until I try and use the web and realize it's not working.
Thanks,
Jason

There is nothing out yet. I'm sure one of our great devs will include it in a rom soon.
Hi everybody.
I just bought a Samsung S3 but I have a problem..
Every time I put my phone in standby, after 5-10 minutes the phone stops getting push notifications (fb, whatsup). I need to turn it on and after that everything's fine..
I tried do update to android revolution hd 17.1 but I still get this problem..
I've already tried to set Wi-Fi to always off, checked all notification setting but to no avail..
Is there a way to receive internet messages without turning on the phone every 5 minutes?

Their is a refresh setting of almost every internet app, try to change those. And check whether Do Not Disturb option in the notification panel is not on.
Hit Thanks if this helped.
Disable smart alert in 'motion' and that should fix it
Especially if you have a broken/malfunctioning proximity sensor

Sorry but I can't find any refresh setting in phone settings or whatsapp options. Can you please tell me where can I find them?
Have you downloaded any deep sleep apps or Juice Defender/any other battery management app?

No I didn't.
I even did a hard reset 2 days ago. The only apps I have right now are whatapp and fb messanger
I just tried to uncheck "smart alert" but the problem persists.
Okay wait, when you say 'standby mode', you just mean you're locking it, right?
Assuming that the answer to my previous question is 'yes', tell me, when you turn your screen back on do you get a little notification on the bottom of the screen that says "You are now connected to (whatever your WiFi is called)" ?
He still doesn't receive texts I believe so this is not having the WiFi set to turn off at lock

My issue only occurs when in 3G. It seem the phone disconnects from 3g line when in deep sleep.
I've already tried to use different sims of different operators getting the same behaviour
If I connect my s3 to a wifi spot it always gets notifications instantly
Hi guys, android noob here. I haven't really found an issue similar to mine so if this is a repost, sorry!
My HTC One keeps reconnecting to wifi after I've turned it OFF. I go into settings and turn wifi off, and it automatically turns it back on after 30 seconds to a minute. It's eating my battery and I can't figure out if there is an app or something in settings that triggers wifi to turn on!!
Any ideas?? Thanks a ton!
Also I'm on T Mobile and I don't have a data plan so I keep mobile data turned OFF. However there is always a 4g icon that shows up in the status bar. I don't think it's actually using any data but kind of strange that it never goes away.
Just curious why when I'm in house I always keep wifi on and for some reason the 4G icon keeps showing up in status bar for a few seconds or minutes and show that it's receiving and sending data. I see the arrows lighting up. I'm not rooted yet and I know about carrier iq so I have an app that blocks that. So I don't no why my 4G keeps switching on. Any ideas. Thanks

Turn Off Download Booster
Turn Off Download Booster because it uses both WiFi and Data to speed up download times. Also, turn of roaming and if you really want to get down..... turn Data off completely. If rooted..... you can add a Data toggle by using
SqEditor lite v2.1...
Go to Settings Storage/settings.db/system/(Scroll down and find) notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset/..... add this...
MobileData;
You can also add
WiFiHotspot;
Type it exactly as I showed you above..... then save it and reboot. You will now have those toggles available to you. So just turn off Data real easy...... Hope it helps
