Hi all,
In an attempt to improve battery life I have disabled the above and for my use (no push email etc) it seems to work great.
Only issue I am having (around once every two days) is that when I turn the screen on the data connection does not kick in. Sometimes Flightmode on then off sorts this but sometimes phone has to be rebooted.
Has anyone else using this setting found this and either found a permanent fix or at least found a reliable way to get mobile data to kick in without rebooting the phone.
Thanks,
Michael
sometimes when i disable internet connection & later when i enable it again its taking so long time .. i have to reboot phone but now i just disable air plane mod and i enable it again so, its works now without reboot
I set "Keep Wifi on during sleep" to "Always". I do this with all of my devices, as I like to have them connected to Wifi if it's available as soon as I wake it up.
However, the connection manager (or some other app/service) on the Desire seems to take control nearly every time I hit the power button. The phone comes on and I'll be connected to Wifi. But then it switches off and connects to the 3G/4G data signal for a few seconds. Then switches back to Wifi. This is especially annoying when I've already launched an app and it disconnects me.
I tried using Titanium Backup to "freeze" an app that is called something like Connection Manager, but this odd connection flip still occurs.
Does anyone know what is causing this and how I can fix it? I'm still on 4.2 if that makes a difference.
Thank you!

I'm not sure how you do it after-the-fact but I know when I first setup the device on VM it popped up and you had to consent to use it and agree to the terms. If you say no to both of the those the app never bothers you again. I'm not sure how you get back into the app though to disable it after it being allowed to run.
You could try going to Settings -> Apps -> ALL and then force stop the program and clear all the cache/data/defaults maybe it will clear out your consent to use the program and your agreement to usage terms allowing you to say no the next time it runs.
Hello guys, I have the next problem:When I use maps and click to get my location with gps off it shows a pop up message with says that I need to activate location through wi-fi (or something like this).I go to settings activate it and nothing, same error, in Google now the same error.I use greenify to greenify play services and nlpunbounced to prevent wake locks and alarms from GServices, tried to deactivate nlpunbounced and greenify but error is still there.I have no idea, help me guys!

I've noticed a strange issue with location services on my Edge. When I have the location mode set to "GPS, WiFi and mobile networks", with WiFi turned off, sometimes apps detect some (basically random) location, 10-20 kilometers away from where I really am. Once it even detected I was in Tokyo, and I live in Europe. This most often happens when the phone has been locked for about an hour or more. What's also strange is that, once that happens, after I close and reopen an app (say, a weather app, which uses location) a few times, it detects the correct location. And then if I lock the phone and unlock it after some time, the app will again show the wrong location.
I've also noticed this doesn't happen with the Google Maps app, it always detects the correct location. Maybe the issue is with that particular location mode (which is supposed to be "high accuracy", lol). But, on the other hand, I don't see a reason why that would be the case. Could it be something with cell towers reporting wrong location?
I've tried resetting the phone, and restoring my data from backup, but it didn't change this behavior.
Has anyone had a similar experience? What might be causing this and how to fix it?
EDIT: A quick side question: is there a way to revoke the permission you have to give to Google to use that "high accuracy" mode?
Thanks in advance for any assistance or advice.
P.S.: I'm using stock firmware (5.1.1) with no root.
Hi everybody, i keep receiving this annoying pop up with wifi scanning every time i lock my phone even when the wifi is off or on. I turn the scanning off / on from developer mode (kept it in both ways for a while but still the message appears). Location off/ only gps/or high accuracy. Seems that all the commands don't really work.
Please help!
Thanks
I have the same problem! Would be great to get a solution to this. For me, the pop-up only seems to appear when I have Wi-Fi turned off. Whenever the pop-up appears, it minimises the app I'm in, too, which is really annoying because I use Google Maps in my car a lot, and I like to have the Wi-Fi off so the phone doesn't keep trying to connect to Wi-Fi networks that require authentication.
Now its happening the same with me...when wifi is off... It supposed to be an option in the wifi advance settings but...i dont see anything there...that helps...
Have you tried going into settings-security & Privacy-Location services-tap on 3 dots-scan settings and make sure wifi and Bluetooth scanning is off?
Yea, i did that too... Everywhere i could possible know it can be a setting to scan/ locate )... Only thing seems to work for not so many popups is letting wi-fi on all the time ). Good that it has good battery life...
Turning the WiFi + off solved the problem for me.
I have the same problem it's really annoying... And it pops out every once in a while it doesn't matter if you click agree or deny on this message
The only thing that seems to be working it's keep the wifi on... But of course I shouldn't be like that.... Any idea why we have this annoying pop up message?
Found this at Android Central, has to do with incompatibility with latest play store update. If you downgrade play store , then you get popups about Google play services being out of date. Oh well, just keep hitting cancel I guess. Im sure an update to solve will come soon. Lol
Here is what Huawei sent me:
Thank you for contacting Huawei Device USA!
We really appreciate your interest in our devices.
This is caused by incompatibilities between the device and Google Play services of version 12.8.74 or later.
Solution:
It is recommended that you try to solve it in the following three ways:
When pop up, touch CANCEL button.
Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Location services > The three vertical dots > Scan settings, turn off WLAN scanning.
For now, you are advised to go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > More > Show system processes > Google Play services >The three vertical dots > Uninstall updates(This path will not appear until the version is updated).
Feel free to share this information.
Huawei is actively working with the Google development team to provide a final solution. Please stay tuned for updates about this issue.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to you, we are working hard to make a connected world and this includes the satisfaction of our valuable customers.

Mate 10 lite here, been receiving this pop-up like mad yesterday. So I was right in thinking that the pop-up was probably caused by Google being Google again.
Hopefully we get a final solution that doesn't involve downgrading Play Services, a component that insists on being up to date.
