Hi all,
Back then before I had SGS2, (HTC Desire Hd) I used to be on the phone and same time web browsing, but with this phone (SGS2) its does not have the same setting, can any one tell me if I can download some sort of app to get rid of this problem. Please help.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Can you not just click in home button whilst in a call to take you to the home screens?

I think if you are on wifi it still might be possible to surf on the net while you talk by pressing the home button and using the browser. As for data connection....I think it gets disconnected when you make or receive a phone call or send/receive an sms.
You should be able to browse while on the phone, as it uses GSM and not CDMA
I have done it before when been asked to find something while on the phone.
A 3g connection should stay connected because that is on its own frequency, gprs or edge can't be active at the same time as gsm
No one is responding directly to his question, only speculating.
I just confirmed that its not possible on my GS2 either and its kinds disappointing after having out on my HTC Hero before. It turns off mobile data while on a call.
Bad job Samsung!

Just used my home phone to call my GS2 and was able to use the home key, launch the web browser, and google stuff (at&t)

On my stock UK 3 mobile rom I can use the internet and be in a call but when I changed to a generic kwe2 rom I couldn't do it. Generally on 3G or HSDPA you can surf but edge and gprs not.
On 3 in Sweden. Works fine with calling and data simultaneously. Just pressed home button and loaded market and downloaded shazam.

Hey guys, so I've had this problem for a long time now and it's starting to really annoy me. If I turn on my wifi and not use it, the wifi will still be "connected" but nothing will load. So the main problem is that my wifi won't work after 5 min of leaving it on, I could just turn my wifi off then back on but I've been doing this for some time now and was wondering if there was a solution for this. Please help!
What rom are you using?
i'm using the stock rom
v2.1 of android or v1.5?
Are you using a widget to turn off the WiFi?

i'm on 2.1 and i'm using the stock widget to turn it on and off
Is this just at home or everywhere you connect to WiFi?
it happens everywhere i use my wifi.
Contact HTC. Seems odd.
Have you tried going in to the settings & disable / enable WiFi, it might just be a problem with your widget

Hi
I was wondering if it is possible to use both wifi and 3g at the same time. The reason I want this is because, I am using 3UK and they provide free skype which only works if 3g is active. whenever I come home and connect to home wifi, the skype goes offline and requests to turn off wifi.
I had Nokia N95 8Gb and it used to run both wifi and 3g at the same time. Dosen't android have that option of choosing access points?
isn't skype a free app already??
sorry i don't know the answer to your question
I think that you don't get charged for data used when on skype with 3? Is there anything in the settings within skype that you can change to allow you to use wifi?
Otherwise try downloading the skype app off the market and see if that works? Did you get the 2.1 upgrade yet on 3?

No I am using generic 2.1 and you can download skype off 3 website. this skype is customised to run only on 3 network. I did try downloading Native skype off market but it is such a battery drainer and I think it is not free to use on 3's 3g network.
Hey all!
Quick question; when I connect to my wifi at home it connects quickly but I can't access web pages, market etc. I have to restart my phone before I'm able to. It never use to do this and I haven't changed anything. Any thoughts?

Since I started making and receiving calls and texts via wifi I thought about how nice it would be to actually carry the tab with me in my laptop bag and have it automatically connect to open wifi spots without user interaction. Is this possible.
If I can get a notification of an open network, someone should be able to add code to or from to auto connect and disconnect without storing a thousand networks addresses... PigBak app... or something...
Sorry if this has been discussed couldn't find anything on site wide search..

after a little more searching I found an app that functions the way I'd like it to... Wefi pro seems to do what I need for seamless calls.

Hello everyone,
I am running android 2.3.6 on my pocket galaxy.
Whenever i keep my wifi on for sometime and keep my mobile aside ,i doesn't connect to internet as soon as I again pick it up. Though it shows that it is connected but i have to switch wifi of my mobile off and them turn it on again. There is probably no issue with my internet connection or router because my tablet and laptop doesn't show similar problem that use the very same wifi signals for accessing internet.
Secondly,lets say i went out of home along with my mobile into an area where i don't get the wifi signals of my router and then came back,while wifi was on, mobile would not connect itself even after ten to fifteen minutes. I don't know whether there is any particular time interval for every mobile to scan for wifi but i guess it must be not more than two to three mins once you don't have signals.
Please tell me ,is it a hardware issue or software issue and how to fix it. Would be grateful .
Regards
