Is there anyway to have the wifi stay on when the screen goes to sleep? It seems sometimes it doesn't always connect or takes a while to connect when you turn the device back on after it has gone to sleep.

WM6. Whenever I turn the screen off, Wifi automatically turns off until the screen is turned back on.
Can I change this setting? and yes, I know it will drain the battery, but I have 2 spares that are constantly on charge.
Thanks
[APP] WifiNoStandby - stop wifi going to sleep
Something new - under Wifi Settings/Advanced - I have Wi-Fi set to sleep when display is off..
This doesn't seem to be the case. My WiFi is Always on.
I would imagine that the icon would disappear like it does when WiFi is turned off.. but when the phone is asleep and then wakes up, the WiFi connection is still there.
Anything I can try to fix this? I have tried changing the WiFi sleep policy to the other 2, then changing it back to display power - didn't work.
I did have to reboot the phone last night because I couldn't get WiFi to turn off, but I don't have a problem today with turning it on or off.. just won't go to "sleep"
It may be turning off and you just don't notice it. Cause I know that as soon as I turn on the display again its maybe half a second and then the wifi is back on. So you may be missing the switch.
I also notice that I have to leave the display off for a good two or three mins for it to turn off.

Is there a way to find out how long you are connected to an Access Point?
I am noticing a big difference in battery drain when WiFi is turned completely off, then when it is in the "Sleep" mode.
Hello I just want to ask when I switch the Wifi setting to "Only on when plugged in" or "Never on" during sleep time after awhile it would turn back to "Always" on while in sleep mode. Does anyone else have this problem?
Thanks
I'm using my tablet as a car navigation device. I may leave my car parked for up to a week sometimes.
Ideally, I'd like to turn the device off when I stop my car (cable unplugged or screen off) and then turn the device on when I start my car (cable plug in, screen on). Since it takes a while to boot up (and I don't know how to autoboot when the cable is plugged in on a LG g pad 8.0), I don't want to actually turn off the tablet.
Therefore, I have installed "Automate" to enable airplane mode when screen is off and turn off airplane mode when screen is on. I also have Greenify and enabled Aggressive Doze. However, even doing this, I notice that while the screen is off, the phone will still come out of doze periodically. Also eventhough airplane mode is on, Gsam Battery stats show the phone radio is on the entire time (but not data).
Is there a way to force it to doze and not wake up until I tell it to?
Also, for some reason, as it keeps going into airplane mode and back out, I will get a message saying the sim card has been removed and it will force me to reboot. If I don't go into airplane mode at all, I dont get the message. It's only from switching it on and off.
I just noticed yesterday that my screen started cutting out for long periods of time.
This morning I verified the phone is on when the audio, haptic feedback, and screen are only working 1-2% of the time.
This only happens when I have WiFi turned on. I was able to get the device to work when I left any wifi area.
Then I als o shut off screen timeout and lock screen so that when the device is on wifi, it is easier to get in and shut off the wifi again.
Anyone know what this could be?
