Data saver mode? - LG G5 Questions & Answers

I was on tumbler this morning and noticed the .gifs were not playing. I clicked on one and a message popped up at the bottom about my phone being on data saving mode. I had to click the .gif in order to get it to play. Anyone know what this is about and how to turn it off? I have an unlimited data plan.

It's a setting in Tumblr for when you're using the app on data connection.
Go to your account tab, click the settings button and scroll down to data saving mode. Turn it off.

How does it work anyway, anyone know?

Turning off "always-on mobile data"

If I uncheck the option, will I still be able to get whatsapp and liveprofile messages? Most likely instant messaging apps.

Yes you will.
I turned it off and using mobile network. "WatsUpp" and Waze-GPS working fine.
But it is not really required question - you can turn it off and try using your toy for one hour, and see, if there are any changes.
Turning off the always-on mobile data shuts your data off after an extended period of time of the screen being off. So you should be able to get your stuff for a little, but after awhile you won't.

Having an odd issue with the Rezound

This has been like this for the past several roms I've ran. Basically when the screen is off, I do not receive text messages. When I turn the screen on, I get all of my notifications basically instantly. Is there a setting I'm missing here that shuts off connection when the screen is off? Right now I'm on venusaur rom.

This happened to me once when I somehow had sync over 3G disabled, AND have the setting to disable wifi when the screen sleeps enabled
Check account & sync in settings, and check the advanced wifi menu in settings as well.
I always leave wifi off because I have an unlimited plan. So I do have it so wifi shuts off when the screen is turned off and to never auto turn on. Not sure if that has anything to do with not receiving texts.
In accounts and sync I do not see any sort of option to sync over 3G. Overall its enabled though.

Well, have you flashed any radios or anything like that on this phone?
I have not flashed any radios at all.

SMS has nothing to do with wifi or data. So it shouldn't affect the normal texts coming in.
MMS that is a different story.

Thats what I thought which is why I can't seem to think of what would be causing this. Sometimes it comes through four-five minutes late and other times it will not come through at all until I turn the screen on. This has only been happening relatively recently and I'm in a constant five bar area.
same
I have the same issue...but I am completely stock, unrooted.
(I am also in a great reception area, and this has started only in the past 2 weeks)

Yeah that sounds exactly like what's up with my phone. Past two weeks is a very good time frame for when this started happening.
I've been having this for a while regardless of rom :/
Are you in some kind of "power-save" mode?
No power save mode that I know of.
Best advice I can think of is to run a ruu again. Then clean install a Rom. That way you will be starting fresh.

Are any of you running anything like Juice Defender? Maybe you can download Juice Defender to help you find the option to allow screen off operations.
Alternatively, you can try going to: Settings, Power, Power Mode, change to High Performance.
> using my Rezound/Vigor
No Juice Defender or anything here.
And I just noticed this. I went to send a text message and turned the screen off. I went to check twenty minutes later to see if there was a reply and the timer was still going. After a few seconds of the screen being on it said text sent. This is a huge issue.
Yo
Did you try Gorillas suggestion above?
My Zound sleeps too deeply for me unless
Power setting is High Performance mode.
Worth a try....
I don't know where that option is. He said it was under power settings, but there is no option to select modes from there.
.
Nick,
Check Settings - Power - see 3rd item down from top "POWER MODE",
choose it and see Economy, Norbal, and High Performance.
Choose High Performance and your radios will behave better, at least
mine do.....
That option isn't there. When I click power it goes, battery status, battery level, battery use and fast boot.

[Q] gmail not checking for messages while in standby

I just got my phone last night.
I notice that my gmail does not check for messages while my phone is in standby.
If I have a message,I don't get it until I wake up the phone. I have my wifi to stay on.
While troubleshooting this,I realized I can't find where to set any of the auto sync settings....
Thanx,
Ron

Sync settings are in the accounts menu. There seems to be a known bug with wifi where if the phone is sleeping for a while data will not flow until the device is woken up again. Many people are experiencing this.

It's not really a bug, just a weird "feature" of ICS, of data connection going to sleep when the screen is off.
Download Power Saver settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.logicvoid.powersaversettings&hl=en
and uncheck the very first setting. That will allow the data connection to stay active while the screen is off.

Well, with that option unchecked, I get my gmail while the phone is asleep. With that option checked, I don't get it until I turn the screen on. So I take that to mean that it works.

Good to know, thanks.
Just installed Power Saver Settings, but it seems like some of those options actually conflict with the ones in the Settings menu. And what does turning off the "1 CPU" option do? Is the phone by default only running one core and at >1GHz?

It's apparently in your smart settings or whatever area where you can set data limits for the device. Press the menu button while in there and you should be able to get extra options.

Ok I have data usage & data roaming and restrict backround data.
You want to make sure background data isn't restricted generally, and only turn it off on apps that are eating up your data if you're not on Unlimited.

[Q] Notification delayed until screen is turned on

Hello,
I have noticed since I started using whatsapp and viber that when the phone screen is turned off, if someone sends me a message via whatsapp, the phone doesn't instantly notify me. It is only when I turn the screen back on that I get the notification. Also, when someone calls me on viber, the phone doesn't ring. Again, it is only I turn the screen on, that I see all the missed calls.
I mostly use my phone on a wifi connection and the power saving mode is set on smart.
What can I do to get notifications as they are sent and not until I turn on the screen ?
Thanks

Look into huawei's power saving thing. It diables background apps. Just put a check in the box where it says allow in background.
Settings-power savings protected apps.
