[ANDROID] WiFi not going to sleeping. - TouchPad General

Hey guys I'm using CM7 Alpha 2.
I notice that the wifi doesn't go to sleep 15min after the screen is off.
I checked the policy and it is set to Sleep "when screen is turned off"
There is no difference if I set to "Never while charging"
I even reinstalled the ROM from scratch and still the same problem.
Any suggestions?

it will probably get fixed sooner or later(this is a alpha thats before a beta )

Is yours not turning off(sleep) the WIFI off either?

I think with alpha 2 wifi is on all the time, regardless of the sleep setting. This was probably done to help with the SOD issue until they find a better solution.

as a temporal workaround, I used tasker to:
turn off the wifi 10 minutes after the screen is off.
while screen is off, wake up wifi every 30 min to check emails for 1 minute.
turn on wifi if i wake up the touchpad.

[Q] Deep Sleep issue

I'm running latest firmware (2.1.4) on an A101IT and have an issue with Deep Sleep. If I put the A101IT into Deep Sleep two times, after waking it up the second time the device runs extremely slow. It appears to be unresponsive but actually does respond if given time. Can anyone who is having Deep Sleep problems duplicate this? Aside from an Archos firmware fix, does anyone know of a way to fix this issue? Thanks.
UPDATE: I installed a terminal emulator, ran top and when the A101IT returns from Deep Sleep the second time, /usr/sbin/audiomixer is taking 95% of the CPU. Looks like that is the culprit but I'm still not sure how to fix it.
[SOLVED] Deep Sleep issue
I think I found a solution...since /usr/sbin/audiomixer was taking all the CPU time I started poking around in Settings->Sound. There is a setting there called "Screen lock sounds" which I had checked. So I unchecked that setting and have been able to go in and out of Deep Sleep without any problems. Hope this helps someone. Sure hope Archos reads this forum too!
Just an off topic question but related to deep sleep.
Does the power led turn off when you put your device into deep sleep?

Too bad then mine is broken. Even just after doing a full device reset and flashing any firmware and no other apps installed the led stays on all the time.

For me, the LED only turns off after I leave my Archos idle for a while until the screen turns off.
If I press power button to put it into deep sleep, the LED is still on.

Sorry, the LED does turn off after I press the power button, but take some time to.
My USB host functions, but not for all thumbdrives.

When you press the power button, did you turned off WiFi or enabled flymode?

Wifi was off.
I tried the airplane mode but no go.
Remember this was a firmware install with nothing added no extra apps nothing.
I'v done this with 2.0.71 and 2.1.04 and always got the same result no sleep deep or otherwise.

When I turn airplane mode on and put the device in deep sleep the led stays on. In every other case the led turns off.

[Q] No notifications when screen asleep and WiFi disappears

I got a new gTab from Woot. I flashed CM7 onto it with the latest files on the wiki. Everything looks good except that I get no notifications when the sleep is turned off. That is a bit annoying. Also, sometimes the wifi disappears. I need to toggle the wifi button in the notification bar to get it back. I have seen many people complain about it but I don't see a clear solution. Can someone give a noob guide to fixing this if there is a solution?
EDIT: I pinged the tablet with the screen off and could not do so. I could ping it when the screen was on. the screen turning off was disabling my wifi. Can some1 tell me how to fix this? Please?
First thing to check is your wifi sleep policy. You can find this under the wifi setting menu. Hit the menu button again for Advanced setting. Under the wifi sleep policy set it to never.
Cheers
Forgot to mention that it was set to Never. The issue still happens.
I got it to work finally! I had to update to pershoot's 2.6.32.39 kernel. 40 does not work.

[Q] SGS2 screen stays on after notification while charging

Hi guys!
I noticed over quite a time, that while I leave my phone charging over the night, any random notofication will cause the screen to stay on until I wake up and manually turn it off.
On my galaxy s2 I have VillainRom 2.1.0 (Android 2.3.4) with ninpho's 2.0.4 kernel.
However I did notice the problem before with VR 1.4 and CF-Root kernel (didn't use anything else yet), so I figure it might not be related to this.
This is rather annoying, as I don't want any burn in effects on my screen, but there's a much worse part about it:
It's noch 100% limited to the time of being charged. If I remove the charger at 100%, play around a little with the phone and then go to sleep, some random notification (whatsapp/sms etc.) will still cause the phone to wake up and not go back to sleep mode.
What happens is, I wake up with a phone at 50% battery (at it's best!), or I don't even wake up because my phone is dead and therefore my alarm clock stays quiet..
I read about some people having this problem with their SGS1 and it might help to go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> uncheck Stay awake.
SGS2 does not have this "stay awake" option (or I'm seriously stupid)..
Anyone an idea what I might want to try?
Best greetings, Alex
At that screen I have "Standby" and you need to have it unchecked. Also, what's your screen-off delay? You don't have any apps like screebl keeping you screen on, I assume?

I do not have this option. my screens stays on all the time.
You're problem sounds similar to mine.

I have tested with a stock rom of which I made no input and had the same issue.
Hope we can solve our problems. Cheers

mine just started doing it. i have been running custom rom for awhile now.
apps recently installed:
words free
launcher pro 806
extended controls
impossible level game
I have uninstalled:
words free
impossible level game
my issue is still happening.
when unplugged screen turns off.
I can get a text, it will light up then turn back off.
when plugged in (charging)
display will not turn off unless i press the lock button.
if i get a text the screen turns back on and stays on unless i press the lock button again.
I have recently re-flashed, complete wipe of phone and factory reset wipe.
I still have the screen on when charging and no option to disable.
I need an option to disable the "stay awake"
As my fault occurs with the phone completely reset on a stock rom it must be hardware so I am going to return it and see what happens from there.
I have flashed CM7 and there is an option to turn stay awake off.
This option is removed in DarkyRom.
Finally figured out how to turn it on or off!!!!
install the app extended controls and add stake awake as a toggle.
Turn it off!!!
then remove app
FINALLY!

[Q] phone not powering down completely

have you guys noticed that when you power down the phone it does shut off but not completely. the reason i think that its not fully shut down is because the phone boots back up within seconds of powering on....also the up time and awake time have not been reset back to 0. this actually is the only way my phone goes to sleep. any other time when i just turn the screen off my phone won't really sleep (wake lock)..ive noticed this with the blackend rom and also infected rom...the way i found to fix the wake lock issue is to do a factory reset which fixes the problem until i have to charge the the phone which everyone knows that the phone won't sleep while charging. so have you guys experienced this? and also do you know whats causing the wake lock? ive searched the forums and cant find anything...thanks!!
Fastboot, in the power menu, turn it off.
ok turned off fastboot and this fixed the up time and awake time not resetting...still having the wake lock issue tho...any other ideas to fix this?

When you reboot your phone, it does not turn completely off because you are rebooting the phone. It is a feature added by htc to speed up reboot speeds. When you reboot, it kills all apps and processes, goes to sleep, and boots up.
Turn fastboot off (menu>settings>power>fastboot) if you want it to turn completely off while rebooting.
To make the phone sleep while charging, go to
menu>settings>applications>development and uncheck "stay awake"
went to my setting and the stay awake while charging was unchecked already...actually i dont mind having wake lock while charging...just the wake lock with normal use...thx tho

Keep WiFi on during sleep (Never)

Does anyone else have an issue with the WiFi sleep policy? My WiFi never turns off when my tablet is in sleep mode. I set it to 'never', turn off the screen and no matter how long I wait, it is still connected to WiFi while the screen is off (which destroys the battery now). I have been turning it off manually and putting it into low performance mode every time I turn off the screen, but would like this to be automatic. Any suggestions?
Edit: wrong section, sorry. MOD please delete this! I am posting it in General.
