I thought I'd start this thread to raise awareness and stop some confusion. It looks like there is a bug in Android Lollipop where under certain circumstances, the battery chart/graph always shows WiFi was on even though it was switched off. This is with "scanning always available" set to OFF of course.
A google code bug has been submitted for this: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=81501&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
What I've found reproduces the problem:
1) Make sure "WiFi scanning always available" is OFF.
2) Connect to a WiFi access point.
3) Physically leave that area of the access point so that the WiFi disconnects because you've gone out of range.
4) Disable WiFi from the settings.
5) Observe the battery chart will continue to show WiFi on, forever, until you re-enable WiFi, reconnect to another WiFi access point, and then disable WiFi.
This hasn't been fixed in 5.1 :'(
No issue here and I manage my WiFi manually. So my question is: do you manually manage your WiFi or do you use an app or a rom feature based on profiles, hours,...?

I do use an app to do it, but that's besides the point, I'm able to reproduce this manually. Did you follow the steps I posted in the first post?

Thanks for confirming. Yea pretty annoying how they won't fix such simple bugs, thought for sure this would be gone in 5.1.

Yeup it's a visual glitch with the battery graph. As OP said it only happens if you disable the WiFi once leaving the WiFi network area, if you disable it while still connected it shows as off properly in the graph.
Any fix has been found for this bug? Because I'm on Chroma 5.1.1 and this still occurs.

UPDATE: There is an app in the play store called 'Advanced Wifi Lock (Free)' which fixes this problem and DOES NOT need root
ossy1337 said:
Some (or maybe the most) users reported that the phone loses wifi signal after a few minutes in standby. I probably found a way to fix this. All you need to do is:
5. change the line 'gEnableSuspend=3' to 'gEnableSuspent=1'
PS: Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader using htcdev will most likely void or at least constrain your warranty

Update in post 1, no root required!
Yeah I found out about the wifi lock issue when I got my sony tablet, advanced wifi lock is the perfect solution!
for me the wifi lock causes very low standby hours. anyone having the same issue?
If I did not misunderstand what you mean by WiFi shutdown, there is an option in WiFi setting which keeps WiFi on even phone is in sleep mode (standby).
Go to:
WiFi list, menu, advanced, keep WiFi on during sleep, select always.
No 3rd party app needed.

OK, if that's the case, ignore my post then, but I did not really see any where mentioning the "keep one" function not working in this thread, so had no idea... maybe good to add it somewhere just to avoid further confusion
By the way, the "keep on" function works fine for me, so maybe something to do with the router? or wifi band (802.11a/b/n)?

This app causes massive battery drain. For me, I updated my device with ics ruu and this problem was gone, but a week ago when I did a factory reset the problem reappeared.

Thanks for sharing. I would've tried it out if it weren't for the fact that my current rom has no problems with wifi connectivity at all.
However, I will keep this app in mind just in case .
Introducing LeanDroid:
LeanDroid is a lightweight and incredibly powerful battery saver. It automatically manages the power-hungry radios on your device while the screen is off to significantly lengthen battery life.
Get the most out of your device with the most advanced and efficient battery saver! The no-frills battery saver that actually works!
Features:
-Automatically disables Wi-Fi
-Automatically disables cellular data (root only on Lollipop+)
-Automatically disables cellular radio (root only on Lollipop+)
-Automatically disables Bluetooth
-Automatically disables network location (KitKat+, root only on Lollipop+)
-Automatically disables GPS location (KitKat+, root only on Lollipop+)
-Automatically switches cellular network mode (Lollipop+ and with root)
-Periodically restores connections for sync
-Schedule when LD should be active with the time exception
-Set exceptions for when certain apps are running
-Set exceptions by Wi-Fi name
-Set exceptions by Bluetooth device
-Set exceptions by data transfer speed
-Many more options
-No ads
It can disable WiFi, Cellular Data (2G, 3G, LTE)*, Cellular radio*, Bluetooth, and Location* (networks and GPS) after a certain time with the screen off to conserve battery power and lower data usage. Connections are restored when the screen is turned back on or unlocked, as well as periodically, to allow for notifications to come in. LD will only re-enable connections that it disabled, not all of the selected connections. There are many additional options to set to your preference.
If you have an issue, please email [email protected], or use the contact menu option from the app before leaving a negative review!
Some options explained:
Disable Wi-Fi/Data/Network mode except if active - Connections are only disabled if there is negligible data transfer while the screen is off. Some music services don't "stream" but instead download entire songs at once, and they might do this while the screen is still on. Please set the disable time interval to at least the length of your average song so LD can catch data activity while the screen is off or use the except if "Except if apps running" option.
Disable Wi-Fi except if browser has web login - WiFi is not disabled if it requires a browser login (common for public hotspots or guest networks), so that you do not have to re-enter the password when it is re-enabled.
Disable Wi-Fi except if requires browser login - WiFi is not disabled if it requires a browser login (common for public hotspots or guest networks), so that you do not have to re-enter the password when it is re-enabled.
Disable except if apps running - No connections are disabled if one of the selected apps is found to be running in the foreground or has foreground services. There is a sub-option to also detect background services of the apps.
Restore Data after waiting xx seconds for Wi-Fi to connect - Wait for WiFi to connect before re-enabling cellular data. This prevents data from re-connecting for just a couple of seconds.
Tasker intents

* Note:
-Not all options are available on all devices.
-If you are on Android 4.4.1 - 4.4.2, a persistent notification is required due to a bug in KitKat where services cannot restart themselves once killed by the system. If you would like to hide the notification, find LeanDroid in Settings -> Apps, and un-check "show notifications".

You mean so that you can tell how long they were turned off for? Good question, there's gotta be some app that can pull up those statistics. For WiFi, you can check your battery usage chart.

Suggestions:
1. When im playing few multiplayer games like Heroes of Order and Chaos etc, i usually tend to leave my phone aside for one or two min, so with my current setup where the radios are turned off after one min, the internet might get disconnected hence me loosing the game. So if there is a feature which can check if there is data transfer then dont turn off the radios. Same goes with me downloading some files and the radios might turn off causing the download to fail. - I guess it is answered in the description, my mistake
2. Where it says turn on radios to sync/receive after a specific time period, is thee way to only switch on the 2g network to save more juice?
Questions:
1. When the radios are turned on after the specific time period to sync, do all the radios get turned on?
2. Does it already check if there is data transfer and then turn off the radios ?
Edit: Rated the app on Play Store

Suggestion responses:
1. While the screen is on, the connections are never turned off. The time "after" is time after screen off (explained in help dialog or on Play Store).
2) No, there is currently no option to do that. I wouldn't recommend it either. 2G/Edge is so slow it wouldn't even be able to connect and do anything in the brief time it has to sync.
Question responses:
1. Nope, only the connections that were turned off by the app. I will update the app description to make this more clear.
2. Yes I believe right now it is set to a threshold of about 2kB/s. If within the period that it checks, the data transfer is more than this, it will not disable WiFi/data.

Yes, but LeandData stop traffic also if tethering is on. In this case every time you have to switch on 3g again and reconnect your notebook.

Yes, please check for me as this could potentially be a bug. What did it turn off? It should not turn anything off if the device is charging. Also, if you connect a charger after the app has already turned off connections, it should turn them back on. Please ensure you haven't left any other similar apps running. The WiFi turning off with the screen off could also be a system option.
If you do indeed find a problem please let me know what Android version you are running. You can also check the Logcat if you filter for LeanData. Tell me what you see around the time of the problem.

As expected, i cleaned up everything on my device and flashed a new build. Installed LeanData and used the same settings, all working fine. Radios get turned on when plugged into the charger. Thanks for your time, quick response and efforts

MIUI rom have a application to monitor intenet connect of all application. it's great and I cannot find other app can do like this on Playstore.

Different from Sony Stamina mode?
Hi.
I have an xperia device and i would like to know if this app is different from sony's stamina mode, which also switches off connections in idle mode.
Thanks.
GPS might also be a worthy addition!
Only the paid version of dsbatterysaver includes GPS. Right now, I have tasker turn it on and off with the screen when unplugged but that means no syncing of location using GPS.
Hi,
I am on C432B170. Whenever I change locations (physically), the phone only connects to the available (and already saved) wifi after I turn the screen on. It then keeps connection indefinitely. I also double checked, it is set to keep the connection always.
Or am I too impatient (it even happens after being within wifi range for 15 minutes)? What is the scan interval when the screen is off? Is there maybe a way to decrease that interval?
Thank you in advance

My Mate 8 connects immediately after I enter home while keeping the phone in my pocket without turning the screen on.
So there must definitely be a problem in your settings, or maybe a problem in your wireless router configuration.
If possible check your Mate 8 behavior with another wifi network.
In fact, it happens also at work. and my Mate S (with Android 5) connected immediately.
Do you have wifi+ enabled or disabled?

How are you sure that wifi connection is not active?
Only because you can't see the wifi symbol on the status bar as soon as you turn the screen on (it might be due only to a delay in the screen refresh), or have you checked otherwise?

Always active (as stated in initial post) (Battery history also shows that WIFI was on permanently)
Well, other possibilities are to delete the wifi connection and recreate it (if not already tried), and eventually perform a Mate 8 factory reset.

also known as "I got no idea, try this standard thingy". I already resetted the phone - without any third party apps I noticed the exact same bahavior
Unfortunately, if you can't solve the problem in any way, probably your Mate 8 is somehow faulty in the wifi compartment, and need to be sent to Huawei for repair...

That's like saying: "If notifications are delayed, you need to send it to huawei for repair"
If wifi works fine otherwise, it must be a software problem.

I honestly don't think so, AFAIK till now nobody here (and on the other forums I attend) has posted a similar problem with the Mate 8, so IMHO it shouldn't t be a Huawei Android 6.0 problem.
But anyway, this XDA thread now might be read by some other people who could possibly confirm the same problem, so you'll see if you're not alone...
I do have same problem on KanVIP Slim on a AL10. The wifi wont connect until i open the screen nor at home or at work, did test it with WIFI+ enabled or disabled.
Also i have noticed that the login webpage wont show when i'm connected to a public free WIFI that require web login.

Same problem
Any solution ?
So as you may guess, i am having trouble with the qcom_rx_wakelock, and no matter how much searching i do i can't find a solution. I am hoping someone here may be able to help.
It occurs only when wifi is turned on, (not currently sure about connected vs unconnected) and is responsible for causing large drain from Android System and Android OS.
I have tried a number of proposed solutions including: clean rom install (sultan's CM13 if it matters), changing radio, ensuring wifi scanning is turned off, and applying an iptables custom script in droid wall.
None of this has worked.
My knowledge of the wakelock is that it is to do with wifi: 1 hypothesis is it relates to broadcast/multicast pings constantly waking the phone, 2nd hypothesis is that it is to do with being on a large scale wifi network with unusual security (i am at uni). One person suggested (in a thread that i can no longer find) that a dev solved it by changing the wifi drivers in his kernel, but i cant do this unless i change kernel i guess?
Below are some screenshots of it effects. Any help in finding a solution would be greatly appreciated!
Get Greenify and ForceDoze from the Play Store. ForceDoze doesn't need any special settings, just enable it. With Greenify, go in and select apps that use data connectivity. This should minimize wifi wakelock.

I tried that and it made little/no difference, also tried amplify, but qcom_rx_wakelock is not listed. With regards to dose I use aggressive dose, I think this is the same? But it did not make any difference.

This is a quote from another forum:
That particular wake lock is triggered any time the phone is awoken from deep sleep to send or receive data on wifi. If you are having issues with just one particular wifi network, that is likely DHCP/dynamic IP related. There are reports of issues with certain wifi routers that are using dynamic IP addresses causing DHCP queries to constantly wake the device. The only known work-around is to set a static IP address or use a different router.

So, you could try setting the phone's ip to a static ip and see if this minimizes the issue.
Edit: Forgot you were on university's wifi, may not be able to set a static ip, unless you set the last 3 numbers to a very high number. Ex: 192.168.1.900, if the router(s) are set up to assign that high.

Ok, thanks! I have just come home today so will see if it stops on my home wifi, but will be back in uni on monday so will check the static IP idea then and report back, would your example address be appropriate, or do i need a more specific address?

The above ip is just an example.
Go to settings > wifi > 3 dots in upper right > advanced. now scroll all the way down and see what your ip is currently and write it down.
Go back to main wifi menu and long press on the connected wifi and choose modify network
Expand advanced options > tap ip settings > choose static > enter in the same ip you wrote down or change the last 3 digits and save
Note: when you tap on the box to enter ip, an ip will already be showing, just start typing and it will disappear.

I'm having the same issue (having WiFi on drains 2-4% per hour, turned it off last night, didn't lose one single battery percent in 7+ hours), how did you resolve the issue?

Mine was a hardware issue.
You can try to flash complete stock firmware "this is different" than downloading a Rom and flashing via TWRP.

Just started recently. Wifi calling is off. Didn't see any other setting. Anyone know?
It might be because I have wifi smart settings turned on but just recently turned off GPS. Just to turned it back on so we'll see...
Apparently it's not those settings. Problem still persisting. Anyone know please speak up.
Been dealing with same issue. Seen people talk about turning off optimizations for certain apps that is a possible fix. Google connectivity and wifi.
Thanks. How do you do this?

It's in the app settings in the 3 dot menu under optimizations. Like I said it seems to be a hit or miss.

Thanks. Don't have Google connectivity. What is that? Maybe it's got another name in my list

It's an app that assists with Wifi connection. You can find it in the Play store under Google Connectivity Services so you know what the logo looks like, at least in case it's under a different name. Namely used to automatically connect you to good public WiFi APs and auto-tunnel you to Google's VPN.
fixed it for me
Try installing the app called "WIFI KeepAlive" (the one with a grey antenna not green wifi bars)
This fixed it for me
