Got the galaxy s2 running XWKE7
Under wifi settings>advanced>Wifi sleep policy. selecting turn off wifi when screen is off setting does not seem to take effect.
Tested by pinging it and continues to ping even 5-10 mins after screen is turned off.
anybody else having the same issue ?
Have the same issue, want my wifi to turn off when the screen turns off but wifi stays connected.
Only thing I can think of is that i restored my access point with titanium.
Can this cause any problem and if it can, can I delete the restored settings?
My sleep policy works fine when turning screen off. When i turn on the screen, the wi-fi icon appears after a few seconds. Also the battery usage shows that wi-fi is off when screen is off and phone inactive. Might be related to one of your apps that conflicts with the wi-fi policy. Happened to me when using an app that had options to turn on/off wi-fi scanning.

Weird, will have to check this up.
But as far as I know I don't have any other app that manages wifi.
As you can see in my screenshot, wifi is on at all time even when sleep policy is set to sleep when screen off.
Currently I'm not connected to any wifi since I don´t have any in range at work but it looks exactly the same when I´m connected to my home network.

Hi, I have the opposite problem, I don't want my WF turns off when is sleeping. I remember that a program ask me to turn WiFi in energy save mode but I cannot remember which app and I have no clue how to go back...
Any help?
Tks a lot!

Have you tried setting the sleep policy to 'never'?
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I did a factory reset (XXKI4) and it was still the same. Screen off, policy set to turn off when screen is off but I can still ping the phone after a few minutes.....?!?
EDIT: I remembered ;-) Had the same thing on my original Galaxy over a year ago.
Needed to edit a database:

Cant save sleep settings.....
I have a slightly stranger problem that's just started. I'm aware of the situation where wifi takes 15 mins to turn off after screen turns off was never bothered with that aspect.
However, since today I found wifi was staying on continuously - checked in settings & wifi sleep policy had reverted to 'never' - I always had it set to 'sleep when screen turns off'.
The problem now is that I change it to sleep when screen turns off' and 'save' this setting but it's not saving - when wifi goes off & then back on again or if I reboot phone, it reverts to 'never'.
Any ideas folks?
Back-up data and factory reset .
jje
Would like to know this too.
Wouldn't like to back up and reset everytime this happens.
Also couldn't find the files in /dbdata folder as indicated by the Galaxy S thread pointed to.
Is there any other solution?
someone says using static IP will solved this issue but It didn't...
Any news on that?

Me too! Any word on that?
Had the same problem, where the battery no longer lasted the whole day.
When I checked under "Settings/ Battery" and clicked on the graph I could see that whilst the phone was sleeping, WiFi was not.
I have done a few "factory resets." All seemed okay to start off with and then after a while I would notice the same problem.
This last time I found that "Google Now" is the culprit.
Just click on the blue Google Icon, under Applications, then bring up the menu, click on "Privacy and Accounts" then "Google Location Settings", then "Location Access" and make sure "Use wireless networks" is not checked. (also available from "Settings/ Location services")
That fixed it for me!!

Mine is not checked and its still keep 'on' for almost hour...
as far as I know its better to be on wifi instead of data, eat less battery... but anyway I guess its have its own wakelocks...
After the recent 148 update, my HAM2 Wi-Fi can no longer connect after wake up. The turn on button will suck for a while, then reset to off state. Only way to fix is turn on flight mode and then turn off.
Anyone has similar issue or just me?

mine does not connect (automatically) to WiFi after rebooting, even though WiFi is enabled in config.
I have to tap on WiFi button twice (disconnect and then connect again), after that HAM2 "restores" the WiFi connection.
Though, I don't have such problem after wake up (as in your case).
When my issue happens, can not turn on Wi-Fi at all, even after reboot. The only way to fix it is turn on flight mode and turn off.
Now I just change Wi-Fi sleep policy to never, this seems to be fine. But with some extra battery drain though.

Since tasker is designed to automate all of android, it is the go-to app for this issue, as well as others
Hi Everyone,
just bought a new AT&T HTC One M9, updated via OTA to 5.1, phone is currently with bootloader unlocked but unrooted and S-ON.
i have the following issue:
i usually leave location services on with "battery saving" mode.
after the screen times out and turns off, i can see the GPS icon flashing in the status bar as if location services are on "High Accuracy" mode.
at that point, if i go to Settings > Location it shows the mode as "Battery Saving", if i turn location services off and on again its switches to High Accuracy mode (which doesn't happen normally by toggling it)
i tried shutting down apps that appear under "Recent Location Requests" in Settings > Location, i also tried shutting down running apps via Settings > Apps -> Running tab.
in both cases i shut down as many apps as i could, the GPS icon was still showing in the status bar
only toggling Location Services Off and On OR switching modes from Battery Saving to High Accuracy and then back to Battery Saving, seems to fix the problem
but that's only until the screen turns off again.
(this happens even if location services are completely off)
any ideas?
Thanks in Advance
Device Info:
AT&T HTC One M9 32GB - Android 5.1, Sense 7.0, Firmware 2.6.502.16

Ηello guys
Ι have the samunsg a52 5g
I have a problem. after I leave the cell phone to sleep at night, (I just lock it of course - I have no power plan activated - I always have wifi activated) when i wake up i unlock it and then all the notifications start coming from applications and others...
the cell phone seems to be "dead" at night
why is this happening ;
any fix?
I think you need check if your battery settings are configured in adaptive mode.
That happens with pretty much all phones. Its called Doze mode.
Here's a link that explains what it does: https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby
