Where did the wifi settings go to be able to turn on wifi upon awake rather than always on? Thanks.
Settings > Wi-Fi > 3-square button at top right of screen > advanced > keep Wi-Fi on during sleep
Select "never" to make it turn off during sleep.

Is there a app to keep the backlight on while charging?
Not that I know of. I use widgetsdroid and have a screen on widget. I just hit that when I don't want the xoom to sleep.

Go to Settings > Applications > Development. Check the option 'Stay awake'
Cool thanks
I don't have auto brightness on and set it to 0% yet always changes itself when unlocked.
Anyone else?

Are you using Go Locker?
Is your battery below 5%? For whatever reason, mine does this too when the battery's running low...

Under "Display", "Brightness", uncheck "automatic brightness". Don't leave it checked and set it to "0". Once unchecked, you can adjust the slide bar to the brightness you want and it shouldn't change unless / until your "power saving" options kick in.
This is a different setting than "auto adjust screen".

I already mentioned nothing is set to auto. No auto brightness or auto power for screen. I set the brightness manually to 20% turn screen off turn back on and it goes back to full brightness.
Try to disable Widget Locker and see if it fixed your issue, I saw this issue with my phone when I was using Go Locker and Go Launcher Ex and set the Go Locker to Default Lanucher.
Then I reset the default to Go Launcher Ex and it worked for me.
The option seems to have disappeared - any ideas?

I have the phone system setting set to vibrate on incoming texts but its not working with any market sms app i try to use. I've tried go sms and pansi but neither will vibrate when i get a text even when both the system and app setting are set to always vibrate on invoking sms. I did root my phone but i don't think that has anything to do with it
I'd check your settings in sound, and sound/vibration intensity.
There are two you will want to look for:
You can find widgets to toggle through them, but I would be willing to bet that in one of the two sections you have your vibrate for notifications to be turned down, or turned off.

I'm not sure if it's just my phone or if everyone's does this. Say, I get an email and I click through the email link to a website, regardless if I choose native browser or Firefox, the screen dims when showing the browser. Anyone have any clue how to stop this? It's very maddening when the browser dims and immediately goes back to full brightness when I go back one stop to the mail application.
i have it set on full brightness, this ONLY happens when I open the browser.
Do you have power saving on? If so there is a setting there called background color. If this is checked that's your problem. Settings > power saving > background color (uncheck it)

Thank you for a quick reply. I went to the settings > power saving > background color, I don't have power savings turned on, but the options were all checked any way. I turned it on, and unchecked all the options and the power savings section turned off again because I imagine I disabled all the options.
Tested it by clicking a link to a website and choosing default browser, and it still dimmed the screen halfway it seemed. The screen does NOT dim if I select to use Firefox however.
Unfortunately, that didn't work. Any other suggestions would be most appreciated.
In the browser go to menu -> brightness and colors -> uncheck automatic brightness. The browser has its own power saving settings so you have to choose this option from within the browser. This aggravated the heck out of me until I found it too.

That was it. How come the browser has it's own power and brightness settings? Very weird. Almost a hidden setting if you ask me.
Thank you again.
Didn't realize the default browser has that either but I use chrome!

Guess that explains why I wasn't seeing this behavior, since I use Opera - it autowraps text when zooming, unlike the stock one on the GS3 (loss of highly useful function, anyone?).

To auto wrap in stock browser just go to settings -> advanced -> and check auto-fit pages... not hard

The stock browser word wraps just fine for me.
