bluetooth disconnects when phone screen off - Samsung Gear Fit

for some reason on the gear FIT it always disconnects the bluetooth when the phone screen turns off, but when the phone screen turns on it reconnects.

Are you using some sort of battery saving app or power saving mode?

no and nope. I think its my stupid note 2. but there isnt a way to check it out

I figured out the issue went to wifi standby and put it to turn off wifi when screen is off and when the phone is plugged in to keep wifi on. it seems that my wifi was interfering with the bluetooth.
moderate problem solved. this thread can be locked

I am going to rebump this topic because i just got a new phone Note 4 N910u on 5.0.1 and my bluetooth keeps disconnecting.. randomly .. and i dont know what to do.. anyone got any ideas. that i haven't already tried. i got to fix this issue on my note 2, but i tried that idea but it didn't work.. when the screen turns off. the bluetooth disconnects and the bluetooth is left in discover forever. and standby wifi is off. this fixed the issue on my note2. but now i can't seem to fix this issue on my note 4.

RAZR XT910 problems

I have been using the phone for 2 days now and I observed the following problems:
1. The WiFi signal is weak. I mean in the areas where my HTC Desire or iPhone 4 has one signal bar, the RAZR XT910 has no signal
2. The device does not wake-up sometimes. I have to press the power button several times. I guess this is lag from the android OS.
3. I have got some lags and errors from the android OS these two days. Hope some updates will come.
Please reply if you have similar issues with your device, especially the first two points.
Any 3G/UMTS problems?
I cant connect to 3G only EDGE.
I cant see 3G networks.

Agreed. I have an Australian Razr and have found the same issue. Haven't noticed an issue with speed but the signal strength indicator is definitely on average a bar down on my Galaxy.
2. The device does not wake-up sometimes. I have to press the power button several times. I guess this is lag from the android OS.

Agreed too. Just happened then but instead of eventually waking it restarted. Has also happened once before but did eventually wake.

This might be caused by in pocket detection. Disable it, might help.

I have an optus razr
I have none of the issues you are experiencing. The 'low' wifi signal strength is probably caused because you are connected to a wireless-g router. The razr is capable of wireless-n . I always get full signal bars connected to my 'n' router and 2-3 bars on my 'g' router.
No issues using the power button to turn the phone on/off. No lag in the interface. Miss my optical trackpad from my desire though
My router is wireless-n. I have just checked with the router and it have the weakest from all my mobiles.
Anyone else with this problem?
Try to set your router to support a/b/g + n WiFi. Sometimes WiFi chips can behave very strange.
the router is set to support a/b/g + n WiFi. I have htc desire with g Wi-Fi. the problem comes from the razr wifi.
okay so, I'm back on XDA Developers after owning an iPhone 3, 3Gs and 4 for a couple years (after I moved on from my old Nexus One) and I've had the RAZR for a couple days..
an issue I ran into on the first day of owning it, was constant rebooting when the phone was put to sleep.. I couldn't figure out what the issue was apart from that it only occurred when I was connected to wifi at home (didn't happen when I was connected to wifi anywhere else or when wifi was switched off)... so I went back to the store I got it from for a replacement.. hoping that the phone wasn't going to encouter the same rebooting issues, to my bad luck, it kept happening.. so I thought that maybe it wasn't just because I got myself a dud (both times)...
so today I did some diagnosing the issue which I localised to being my router settings... and luckily enough, it WAS the configuration of my router... I tried to see what the differences were between my configurations at home, and that of the wifi routers at work...
So apparently, the RAZR doesn't like the following (could be just one of them, or a combination of both):
- SSID Not Broadcasting (i.e. Hidden SSID's)
- MAC Address Filtering.
So I unhid my SSID and now it's broadcasting, and I also turned off MAC Address Filtering and using WPA security instead.. Now the phone doesn't constantly reboot. Just odd that the phone doesn't like those settings. Anyways, just happy the phone doesn't constantly reboot when put to sleep.
Hopefully these details help anyone else who ends up running into the rebooting issues when put to sleep.
Have a same problems with my RAZR. But all my wi-fi network is hidden and wpa2 personal secured, but phone randomly rebooting only at work.
home router - time capsule (apple)
work router - d-link DIR320.
P.S. if i disable wifi on phone- no rebooting at all.
Raze phone issues
I have a Razr sourced from Mobicity in Australia, bought from them to avoid the Optus bloat. I love this phone it is a gorgeous piece of kit, big beautiful screen, fast etc. BUT twice in the last two days I have received phone calls, answered them, and the caller was unable to hear me. And ultimately I need this to be a reliable phone first and a gorgeous bit of kit second.
Anybody else suffering similar problems. I hav had to revert back to my iphone4 because I have to have a reliable phone for work. I'd love to find the issue and am open to any suggestions. I am on Telstra by the way.
Ok. Problems I have encountered the 2 days I have used the phone:
Constant freeze. The first hour I used the phone it froze and rebooted 7 or 8 times.
Missing SocialLocation.apk. This caused a problem for the GPS in smart actions to work at all. Rooted phone and installed the app, and problem disappeared.
Tried to hard reset the phone because of all the rebooting problems. Guess what, on the first menu coming up where you can choose language, the phone froze and rebooted again. Now still it is constantly freezing and rebooting.
The freezing issues does not really have one specific app causing it. It can happen whenever doing whatever!
Anyone got a solution for this? Maybe a OTA update for Norwegian model?
For anyone mentioning the loss of WiFi signal, i think its suffering from what the iPhone 4 did, its dependant on where you hold the phone, i think the WiFi receiver on the phone is right about where youd hold the phone (in the middle at the back of the phone)
I noticed i was getting the dropping of signal bars, so decided to test it out, holding the phone normally the bars would drop 1 maybe 2 (in my living room where my desire gets full bars) then held it around the edges of the phone and instantly got full bars again.
I cant say this IS the problem you lot are having, but i definitely find holding the phone a little differently from what i normally do makes a huge difference for me.
Anyway just my 2 pence, hope this helps some of you guys.

I have problem 1 and 2 and weak wi-fi even when the phone is on my desk (not touching it with my hands that is)
1、yes, the wifi is weak
2、when the phone is being charging, sometimes I press the power button it wakes but go dark quickly, and I have to press the button again
I'm on my second Razr right now. My first had the blotches on the screen when using a black background. My second Razr has an unresponsive touchscreen a few times a day. I used to assume that my phone was locking up, but it went to sleep when I pressed the power button, and woke up with a working touchscreen. It will also respond to volume and screen rotation, just no touchscreen until you sleep/wake it.

Maybe you have pocket detection enabled, and when you put your hands in front of the sensor the phone screen shuts off, you don't even need to put your hands in front of the screen, sometimes all you need is to make a shadow in front of the sensors and you will see the phone screen shut off.
Happened to me sometimes, but i knew right away it was pocket detection shutting off the screen.
Thank God i have no complains at all about my phone, maybe a the wifi weakness problem, but for me it still have a very good speed at home on wifi, so don't care about the bars at all.

Signal problems

Hi all noobie here.
I have just got the S3 after moving over from Apple but have found that once my phone is in standby mode for 10-15 mins it loses signal which does not come back until the phone is restarted.
Has anyone else had this issue and fixed it, I have read that increasing the minimum CPU speed may work but not sure how to do this?
Help and thanks
Tom wake? THE Tom wake?
The phone shouldn't be doing this, how long is it deep sleeping for before you notice this problem. Next time it happens you could try toggling flight mode, but still it's not something that should occur.

Is it on wifi when this happens? If so, could be just need to adjust your wifi settings.

[Q] Sony Xperia Tablet S Wifi Disconnect

I had the older Sony Tablet S and it had that issue where the wifi would disconnect no matter what setting I selected (had to use an app to get it to stay on all the time). I was hoping that this would be fixed in the new Xperia Tablet, but it seems like the issue is still here. Anyone else have the same issue where the wifi is disconnecting after going to sleep? Another issue that I have is that it takes a long time for wifi to reconnect after going to sleep for long periods of time (at least 2 hrs). This wasn't an issue with the original Tablet S. One thing I noticed was that the wifi is having a hard time trying to turn itself on... If you look at wifi in the settings section, you'll notice it stays on "Off" and it'll try to switch to "On" for a split second. Not sure if mines defective or not...

Your tabletis defective just like the rest of us :crying:
Rebooting is the quickest way to restore than waiting for it reconnect or turn on itself.
The tablet sure had a hard time turning itself on :laugh:
Anyway, all jokes aside, It's sad to hear that the wifi issue is still there. I wonder if it is an ICS issue or just poor hardware configuration by Sony. hmm, will JB fix this? Does other ICS tablets have this similar problem? For the mean time, it seems like i wont be upgrading, not yet. Not sure if i had the patience waiting for my tablet to turn itself on
The wifi problem on the new Xperia tablet is actually worse than the original tablet S. Most people suggested using the free advanced wifi lock to fix the disconnect issue, which does fix it. However, let's say you don't need wifi because you're going out. If you turn off the app/wifi for longer than 1 hour (not sure of the actual time but I guess if it goes to sleep for a long period of time), then there's a good chance you will not be able to turn on wifi at all. Only a reboot will fix it. Someone did suggest toggling airplane mode but that didn't work for me. Sometimes the wifi will turn itself back on after 5+ minutes...
I think I'll just keep it since it is manageable and reboots are pretty quick. Another minor issue is that the power button is sometimes delayed... Maybe 10% of the unlocks take an extra 3-5 secs for the tablet to turn on. Other than that, I love everything else so far!
Same problem here. I have to reset the tablet to get wifi on again after it goes asleep for sometime.
Other than that I like the tablet very much.
My wifi is fine on my Tablet

This is all because of Sony customizations to the Wifi disconnection policy when the tab sleeps or the screen turns off. With all other manufactures there is no option for Wifi to turn off when the tab goes to sleep. It's either Wifi turns off with the screen or stays on when screens turns off. It's all software and it's easily fixable if Sony decided to do so.

Which wifi setting do you have your tablet set to? I've tried all settings and it still disconnects no matter what I do...
guys, I I bought this tablet last week and had the update but I did not update it yet but worked like a charm no wifi disconnects!
finally I decided to update it today I get disconnects every single time I put the tablet to sleep! This leads me to believe that it's a software issue not hardware, but I'm returning the tablet for now maybe buy it back when they iron everything out.

Is your tablet rooted? You can replace in build.prop ro.sony.wifisleep=0 with ro.sony.wifisleep=1 and restart. It will not disconnect anymore when the screen is off.
You don't need to reboot the tablet, all you have to do is quickly activate then deactivate airplane mode.
Nope, I'm 100% stock (too scared to root...). I think that updating the tablet was what broke it. When I first got it, I remember telling my gf that the Sony had fixed the wifi issue (comparing it to my older Tablet S). I also remember updating as soon as I saw the update notification and then the next morning, I told my gf told my gf that I was wrong about the wifi being fixed. I tried toggling airplane mode but it wouldn't work...
Got mine yesterday. Updated as soon as the update notification appeared. I dont have the wifi issue not turning on after a long sleep. Left it overnight and this morning It reconnected without hesitation. Very happy with my new purchase.

Only issue with that app is that if you want to turn wifi off to save battery, you have to shut off the device entirely so that the wifi doesn't get stuck(you could always risk it and hope it doesn't get stuck on you). I've found out that toggling airplane mode does work sometimes (at least 1 out of 5 times for me).

That's not correct, my samsung 7.7 has the option to turn off wifi when it goes to sleep and once I awake it from sleep the wifi reconnects automatically.
Woohoo! Just received an update notification. Notes say it improves the wifi connection (doesn't specifically mention the word disconnect). Will have to see if it fixes it.

[Q] WiFi Randomly turning on

Today I noticed that although I have my wifi turned off, from time to time throughout the day it randomly turns on without me doing anything. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm thinking it may be some app or another turning it on, but I'm at work right now and don't really have time to troubleshoot it.

Indeed I was using AT&T Smart WiFi. I just turned it off. We'll see if that seems to make any difference.
I use the dumb wifi (i set it on or off as I need to... need NFC tags now) and no problem what so ever.
Ok, so I stopped using Smart WiFi. I have not seen the wifi turn on randomly since.
Bet your battery life improved along the way...
Yeah, battery life has been improved. Although it's still not great. I'm waiting for a custom ROM to fix it, but Android OS uses like 54% of my battery. Pretty sure that's more than it should.

Bluetooth High Battery Usage

Hi guys,
I have updated my phone to 5.1.1. However bluetooth uses a lot of battery now. I have removed my added bluetooth devices but that did not help. Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Thanks in advance
Turn bluetooth off when not in use. I put together an Automate flow to turn it off when phone unplugged and no devices are connected.

I actually did that. But found it inconvenient as i do have bluetooth speakers at home and in car. I ended up reseting the phone which ended up fixing the issue.

Interesting. I have reset my phone probably over 20 times this week but always had the BT deep sleep issue until just this morning when I switched to SimplKernel and a different ROM...problem is, GPS isn't working in this ROM. Sigh.
