Hey, has anyone managed to get WiFi not to get turned off when the phone goes into sleep mode?
I am trying to get VOIP to work on the phone and because of the auto-sleep feature during a phone call (which I have managed to turn off according to this thread though with a possible caveat of decreasing the sensitivity of the GSensor in GSensor enabled applications), WiFi gets killed off and there goes the call.
I've tried some of the settings outlined in this thread to no avail. I would prefer not to have WiFi killed off when the phone goes to sleep though.
OK never mind. I've solved the problem by myself.
These are the registry keys to change from 4 to 0: (probably works with 1 as well - haven't tried them)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
The setting to do this is part of Scapps Advanced Config and works brilliantly
I couldn't find it under Advanced config. Found it under Diamond Tweak though.
And apparantly "1" works as well.
There's a checkbox under Menu - More settings - Connections in AdvancedConfig.

I'm wondering if this is because of my device (HTC Titan) or because of WM6... all I know is that I never had this happen before!
Basically, I'll pull out my phone sometimes and find that its turned on by itself, and has been sitting with the dim idle backlight on.
I noticed it can be caused by several things but the 2 main ones I've seen is:
1) when the phone switches to/from roaming, it wakes up
2) when using A2DP controls (AVRCP), it wakes up.
I've been using workarounds to keep the backlight off for now (set the phone to roam only, or carrier-only, so it won't be switching in/out of roam, and use core player or just remember to toggle the screen off everytime I use a media AVRCP control), but there has got to be a better way to keep the darned screen off until I press power!
Anyone have any suggestions? This is really an unexpected annoyance as it eats up my battery quickly not knowing its on...
I had a similar issue with whenever I received an email and didnt shut off the device manually. What I eventually ended up doing was setting the device to automagically lock when it was powered off, and this seemed to solve the issue. I'm not sure however if this will fix it in your case because locking it may interfere with AVRCP controls working.

hello
When i am have a phonecall the backlight goes off after ca 30 sec. IT DRIVERS ME CRAZY. I dont want that, i want it still on so i can chech kalender, other numbers, even make that choise 12345 that you have to do in some companychangees.
-is there a fix?
- som program that can handle this?
have you tried to adjust the "Turn off backlight if device is not used for" in settings?
don't tipple post the same question I removed the 2 other posts
as well, you could just give the phone screen a little flick in the dead space every minute to keep it on, if you don't wanna extend the default backlight of settings.
use shaps advanced config or i think kaiser tweak has the option to turn off fast sleep while in a call.
If you use S2U2, you can set it to prevent this, check the Tips link in my sig for the settings.
For anyone using the Jellybam ROM, can you please try answering these questions? I am using the 12/15 build:
1) Is it possible to revert the "Settings" display so it is the scrolling menu type instead of it being split?
2) When typing very long WiFi passwords, the password seems to be clipped off at the screen's edge and the password can no longer be seen. Can this be fixed?
3) The AOKP ROM Control for Performance doesn't seem to work correctly for CPU settings when Set on boot is turned on (it doesn't set on boot). However, the Set on boot under Settings -> Performance seem to work correctly.
4) When adding a widget on the homescreen, the text there seems to be white (cannot be seen). If you hold-tap the item, you can see its description, but goes back to white once you release the tap. Can this be fixed?
5) I seem to been having wake lock issues when using this ROM under the Smartassv2 governor. When I do this with a min of 192Mhz, the phone seems to be always awake despite Wifi is off, airplane mode is on, and auto sync is turned off. Any ideas why this might be? Do you think this is an application bug, kernel issue, or something else? (I am using rohan's b6 kernel now). I don't remember seeing this when I was on dirty rom's stock kernel.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Also to add:
6) The input selector seems to be on despite it being unchecked under Settings -> Language & input -> Selector notification. Is there another setting which may have turned this on?
7) For AOKP, there is a toggle for Tether, however, this seems to be USB tethering - is there another way to have a toggle for WiFi AP? I know the Cyanogenmod power bar has this, although the buttons seem a lot larger than the ones in AOKP. Any ideas?
Thanks!
I guess I figured out these:
6) Looks like there is also a Show IME Switcher setting inside AOKP settings - disabled that and it went away
1) Seems like the setting was called Dual panel inside AOKP settings
2) Looks like the settings were messed up on the Paranoid settings for the Settings app - did a Reset on that and it seemed to have cleared up.
Somehow I screwed up my Bluetooth settings when I turned it off to save battery life. Now when I go into settings - wireless there is no option to turn in on ( no wireless devices found). I then went into the services area I try to turn it Bluetooth services on but keep getting errors about the dependency services and / or the account for this service is different than the accounts for the dependency services. I tried to correct this by these dependent services do not allow to make changes.
I also tried to open bthprops.cpl but this did not open .
Can someone export out their registry settings from the registry or make recommendations as to what else to try to change this.
Thanks in advance
I can turn mine off as expected, and like you switched it off to save battery, not tested to see how much it saves but still..
Is it still in device manager?
You've probably deactivated your Bluetooth in device manager, so this is what you do. (sorry if you a lady know how but this is for people who don't know)
Right click on 'My Computer'
Click 'Manage'
On the left hand side there will be a tab called 'Device Manager' click it.
Then find Bluetooth and enable it.
I think Bluetooth really needs work on the RT OS, because it's stupidly hard to turn it on and choose different hardware.
Nope, wasn't in the device manager.
Was gone, tried to activate the Bluetooth services, this didn't help.
Not sure how it just disappeared.
Did a reinstall of just the files, without losing my settings . All is good now.
I know that I won't be turning this off.
I wish there were apps that toggled the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth settings , Display brightness etc. It's cumbersome to go into settings and drill around to find these settings all the time. Would be ideal to have this as a tiled feature so it's easily accessible.
Thanks for the suggestions as this issue is now closed.

Agreed, I also wish it was in the charms bar to make it easier. Also there is no easy way of making the sound go to Bluetooth speaker... you can't click devices... which pisses me off.
am I missing out on something?
you can adjust the brightness and wifi settings right from the charms menu and you can even deactivate bluetooth using the airplane mode... what's missing?

How many steps do you need to go through to get to the Bluetooth settings ( I count 4).
Swipe Charm, press settings, press change pc settings, press wireless, then swipe the toggle
I just want a live tile that I can toggle Bluetooth or any other settings that I have to drill down into charms to get at.
Win+i -> Networks -> Airplane Mode. If you don't have a keyboard, the first step becomes Swipe for Charms -> Settings. If you're already on the desktop, the first two steps become "click the WiFi indicator in the system tray".
Don't get me wrong, such rapid-toggle stuff would be cool, but I spend almost all my time on the desktop or within very easy reach of it, and very, very little time needing to switch wireless networks on or off.
I just saw from my power usage screen that my WiFi is always on, despite me always having it switched off.
Repeated switching it on and off doesn't make a difference, neither does a reboot.
Anyone in the same boat and/or know a fix?
Backgroung scanning is probably enabled, check advanced WiFi settings.
