Wifi Disconnecting When Screen is off. - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Wifi works great, until the phone goes idle. An example is when i turn on Pandora, and lock my screen, 5 minutes into playing it stops. I go to check it out, wifi wasnt connected, but then immediately connects once Ive awakened it. Ive checked all my wifi settings, but nothing helps...

Power save mode on?

If your using power saver it shuts off data when asleep. Just go into power saved settings and shut that feature off.

It was a known issue for HTC One X / XL / X+, fixed in the last official update. No other custom ROM, app, anything could fix it. I sold my first unit due to that, and then purchased a X+ some time ago. Now I purchased the One, I hope this issue is addressed because it's very annoiing and I won't keep the device with it.

Solution , for me

[Q] HotSpot goes to sleep

I am running the FR008 ROM and the included HotSpot App works great, but as soon as the screen turns off on my Aria, the Hotspot stops.
I have the HotSpot set to never turn off, but it still does. Anyone have some ideas on a fix for this?
Check to see if wifi is set to turn off when screen turns off. Maybe wifi and hotspot goes hand in hand

I checked that and it's set to "never".
Somewhere in that thread I remember attn1 saying that the wifi service itself ,even if you set it to never ,would sleep eventually and that it didn't wake reliably.but that doesn't happen untill the screens been off for several hours.

Apn turn on all the time - help

Hi,
Since this morning my apn/data start automatic, and does not turn off!
Normally i used a toggle to turn it on and off. The toggle still works - i can turn it on - and off - But it then turns on itself. The only way is to disable package data in settings. Any on got that problem or a solution?
Funny thing is my tab just started doing the same!

[Q] Download while screen is off

Guys, i've been bugged by this since the i9003 days.. While my sgsl was in froyo i can download while screen is off (using 3g) and after gb upgrade when i tuen off the screen download will stop.. After i bought sgs2 i thought it will change but the same thing happened.. I think it is a feature of Gb.. My question is, is there an app that lets you download over 3g even when the screen is off???

Do you have JuiceDefender installed? It shuts off data when screen is off by default. My S2 downloads over 3g or wifi just fine. I do use JuiceDefender though. I set it to allow a program to stay connected (opera, adownloader, etc). But that program needs to be in the foreground when screen turns off.
If you're having the issue with wifi, make sure the sleep policy is set to never.
Also, make sure your background data is enabled just in case if you changed it.

I don't use juice defender.. My data doesn't get disconnected, it just stops downloading when the screen is off but resumes after turning the screen on..

Your WiFi is set to turn off when screen is off you should be able to change this in WiFi settings as a side note it will cause more battery drain

I want to use 3g in downloading.. Will that work?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
You don't have Tasker installed, do you?
Probably there is some 'battery saving' app installed that has a profile to turn of 3g when screen is off.
I have a same trouble. My connection stops while the screen goes off. My wifi doen't go to sleep and I already checked option "Never" in wifi sleep policy setting. I can't listen music online or even download file has a large size while screen turn off. If I turn on it again, downloading will be continue. I think this cause is JuiceDefender, however, after uninstall it nothing change

Tunein radio keeps closing after turning screen off

This has not happened before. I'm using Pandora and it isn't affected. Also on stock ROM. Anyone experiencing similar issue? The app would come back as soon as I wake the phone.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
this is getting very strange. I think the problem lies with the 4G connection. It keeps dropping off whenever I turn the screen off. The TuneIn radio app seems to go into a buffering state sporadically vs. if I keep the screen on then the problem goes away. Not sure how I can fix this problem as it only happens with TuneIn radio and not with Pandora or other radio apps.
Try going into Settings, then Power.
Ensure that "sleep mode" is off, and if your power saver mode is on, then uncheck "data connection" from that screen as well.
These options disable the data connection if the screen has been off for a while.
I solved this by performing the following steps as soon as I first powered up my phone...
Settings-apps-scroll over to the right to ALL-click on TuneIn Radio-click "disable"
Done.

no airplane mode activated but all connections are off.
I am not sure but it might be some daemon still running despite the deactivation of wifi and data... try enabling airplane mode and check if it still uses data.
