It's a couple of times i unlock my phone and i notice the wifi has disconnected, then it riconnects itself. It also happened at first flash of 5.1, right after the setup wizard.
Any known WiFi drops bugs on 5.1?
I am using Cataclysm + EX.
I am not able to provide any adb logcat because it doesn't seem to happen all the times, sorry.
It's becoming a week known issue.
Seems to be a fault in the Wi-Fi settings where the phone is not keeping the Wi-Fi on when the phone sleeps (even though it's set to do that).
I would go back to an older version (5.0.1) until these retards rectify.
I'm having the same problem.
Anyone got a solution yet?
Bump.
The real issue (at least for me) is that when the phone sleeps and the wifi drops, it enables data network, and I have not unlimited data plan...
How is possible nobody is talking about that wifi behavior ?!
Happened once or twice but that's it.
Someone on G+ that had our same issue said he turned off automatic wifi freq (wifi > advanced) and the drop never happened again.. yet.
That's not a proper fix but better than nothing.

I think the solution is "use vibrate mode on". Get your device to vibrate mod and test it.

I usually use the phone in vibrate mode, but today I brought the device to the audio mode and Wi-Fi started to disable when i turn off screen.

Hi Guys,
A few of us here in London are facing massive battery drain when on the tube, (metro,) as our phones are looking for the mobile signal. As we are underground, there is no signal.
One simple solution is to turn airplane mode on, but then we loose wifi, which is now present on the tube.
Is there a simple way to turn just mobile signal off, or airplane mode on, with wifi on?
Thanks.

Open the Phone app dail *#*#4636*#*#
Scroll down and tap turn off radio this will shutdown power to the cellular radio but not wifi radio
To turn back on same *#*#4636*#*#
then turn on radio
Simply go to airplane mode, then turn wi-fi back on. Your mobile radio will stay off until you come out of airplane mode.
Although they're turned off when airplane mode is activated, both wi-fi and bluetooth can be separately re-activated without disabling airplane mode.
Turn airplane mode on and then go back and turn Wi-Fi on.

Ok Guys,

I wasn't in an area with any wireless networks when I tried the above, hence the wifi indictor not showing up.
Thanks All. :highfive:
There was a big hangouts update today (you can get it on androidpolice.com). I just downloaded it and tested it, but didnt have much time to test it. It adds the APN settings in the hangouts settings and i'm pretty sure its working now. If anyone has time to test it out while on wifi, please leave a comment saying what APN you used and if it works or not.
Seems fixed to me too... I am on wifi at work, and mms goes through now with default APN... sorry didn't have more time to test.
Also seems to be fixed for me on default APN. I have many different APN names though, like 20+, some of them are exactly the same.
Sweet! Fixed it for me, sends relatively fast now, rather than 5 minutes or not at all! Back to Hangouts for me!
btw what do ppl here use for SMS backups? I used to use GoBackup but it doesn't work too well on this phone.

Yes, it automatically installed yesterday. A clue to the issue may be that when I tried sending a message of Textra, it said "MMS Denied - MMS subscriber not enabled." I'm on the More Everything Plan with 12 GB of shared data.

Yes I did. I turned it on, and the problem still persists. I'm going to consult a Verizon rep and see if I can get it fixed.
EDIT: Apparently my dad had put a bunch of blocks on my phone several years ago, that's why I was having problems. Called the rep and he unblocked everything.

Try using Wakelock Blocker. I think theres a module in Xposed for that.

if you disable privacy guard for "disable_services" and you after this disable "googloe.update.services" in "disable_services.apk" then your deep sleep comes back!
In my battery stats my wifi and my awake are showing drops at the same time.
I have reset the phone twice. My wifi is on "Always on". I have no apps installed except the one that came pre loaded.
Also every-time I wake the screen its giving me the message "connected to my wifi"
Anyone have any ideas?

check advanced wifi settings. Always allow scanning or something like that is probably enabled for google location services. Every samsung device I've ever worked with has had this enabled by default.

K, I'm on sprint but my bat screen doesn't look anything like that . . . If you turn on airplane mode, what happens?
Got an idea. Settings-->Data usage-->Menu-->Show Wi-Fi usage
tap wifi
there should be a list of apps under the graph.
Do a full reset, then check the bat page to see if wifi is still on, and then check that list above to see if anything is actually using it.

This was a useless recommendation. There're too many people with an issue and this shouldn't be a problem. Especially when the same device and routers has no problem befor nougat and then continuous problems after update.

More like off shore tech support. At least you didn't recommend factory reset of the guys phone.
But seriously? Troubleshooting? It seems you know the meaning, but not the steps. If you build some before, after, and comparitive context to the users situation, you may have come to a different conclusion.
To the poor soul that gets here with a question burning in everyone's mind, "why me?" Go to Samsung and complain, get a new phone and viola, problem passed on. Especially if you just got it. There are a bunch of issues that you may also be unlucky to have in addition to the WiFi struggling to accept what it thinks as a weak internet connection.
Context:
I did not have any of these issues pre-Nougat;
Nothing change at home, work, and I assume the other locations either;
After the update I factory reset hoping for resolution;
Nope. Purely ignored defect from Samsung...
In addition I suffer from loudspeaker audio cutting out on YouTube videos, which is resovled if you go to a music player and play a few seconds of a song and then go back to the video. Must be the static IP need... Which even if it resolved the issue is still not a resolution! Are you going to assign static IPs everywhere you go? Common dude.
I have the exact same wifi connected, but no internet problem on AT&T S7. It connects if i toggle wifi off and on, but this is annoying

I had this problem in the past.
What I did was look up the APN settings for my phone with a specific carrier.
Then I went into settings and created a NEW APN with those exact settings.
You then have to save it, select it, and reboot your phone.
It solved my problem, which was an APN that had gotten corrupted.
