[Q]i can't get my mobile data and wifi on at same time ... - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

hello everybody.
i recently got a problem , as we know, in the dev option , there is a setting that enables mobile data on even while Wi-Fi is connected.
i set it on , and then once i connect to wifi the data off immediately.
first of all i thought might be some of my apps interfering the system so i just did factory reset , 0 app installed , i didn't even update the pre-installed apps.
but still same thing , i tried reboot like dozens times, enable disable wifi , enable disable data connection ...etc.
nothing works out...
any idea please ?

So basically you want both on at the same time? Or to change automatically from WiFi to LTE when not in WiFi range?

i wanna them on at same time , just like the screenshots of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/wifi-data-time-t3349520
i have been googling around , funny thing is i saw few users got them on at same and try to get rid of it and i am desperately try to get them on ...

Can confirm it worked using developers options setting, 4G & WiFi enabled simultaneously yesterday when I read this thread
Just tried it again now and it won't enable 4G unless I disable WiFi
Looks like a bug with the OS, not just you
Report to Samsung and hope for a fix

Just download Google duo app and run.

does it happen only when your screen is off?

I know HTC have smartsync which turns wifi and data off if it is not used
this plays havoc with me at night between 12.00am and 07.00am.
Have a look at this

Doesn't that completely prevent your phone from going into deep sleep? Aka drain the battery ridiculously quickly.
I don't understand why HTC can't just get this right. I've never had any other phone that had trouble receiving notifications on Wi-Fi.

Same here. I tried every setting. Just have to restart my router every time before connecting. Annoying but working. And after the update the wifi signal is the worst. Much worst than before.
After updating to 4.04 I have the problem that connecting to my Wifi router is no problem, I get full signal (!), but actually using the network is nearly impossible! After using several apps and/or putting the phone in and out of flight mode, i sometimes regain a real connection, but in the morning or after returning home it's gone again...
The disconnecting in sleep mode and not always receiving messages I can live with, not being able to use Wifi at home and thus being forced to use 3G I can't. Anyone have similar problems and also know a solution? I'll try rebooting the router next time, could be a temporary workaround.
I have the same problem after the 4.0.4 update. Wifi signal is incredibly bad now when I previously did not have any issues.
Tried Best Wi-fi performance and its still not as good as the default settings on 4.0.3.
Anyone has any luck factory resetting their phone to restore Wi-fi functionality?

Differents roms, kernels, making all can i do on the recovery, factory reset wipe cache dalvik cache fix permissions, reinstalling the ruu 2.31 and doest work the notifications via wifi and the screen off (mode deep sleep) and NOTHING WORKS i am starting to thinking maybe its a problem of hardware/wifi?

I have the same or similar issue.
My wifi disconnects every minute, even when the screen is on and when I'm using it. I got a replacement phone from T-Mobile and and replacement antenna cover from HTC but still have the same problem. My previous Nexus S and HD2 had no problems with this the wifi and the wifi disconnects on all networks I've tried so far so it doesn't seem like an issue with my router.
I tried a network monitoring app and the wifi disconnected over 350 times in 6 hours.
I am going to try this: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-work-around-wifi-disconnection-issues-htc-one-x-and-one-s

[Q] Unable to turn on wifi - it says turning on and does nothing

Hi,
Since last couple of days i m facing this issue.
When I try to turn on the wifi either from setting or from notification slider, the device does nothing and wifi status shows turning on.... but it never turns on..., tried booting the device several times... activated and deactivated flight mode.... but no luck... The device is just 3 months old and I dont want to root it to preserve warranty..... going to service center is the last optiin for me as they are going to take much time... anyone faced similar issue ? Is there any work around apart from rooting the device ? Seeking some help .... really frustrated...
Model Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GTP3100 (WIFI +3G)
Thanks in advance,
PRASHANT GAJJAR

Thanks for your suggestion... I did that after posting question here ! but it didn't worked as well !
If you're sure that it's not a problem with your network but your tablet and a factory reset didn't fix it, it should go to the service centre.
Can it connect to other wifi networks? What do you mean by never turns on - does it say its on but not do anything?

Hi There,
The device will connect to some network only when it's wifi is turned on ! The WiFi status shows "Turning on the WiFi" but it never turns on and shows me available networks to connect...
Anyways looks like visiting service center is the only option for me ! Thanks for your time mate !

Hey,
I have the same problem after updating my (tab 2 Wifi-3G 10.1) to Android 4.2.1. the tablet was working so well after updating, but after that I wake up and I had that anoyning problem. the problem is when I click on the setting and try to turn on the wifi it shows only (turning wifi on...) and nothing happening. it feels like the wifi cant start or establish the connenction, therefore no available wifi routers or Hotspots can be listed.
What happened the last two days, I tried to check if the tablet will work again after 2 weeks no charge and drain all the battery, SO IT REALLY WORKED BUT ONLY FOR 5 MIN and the problem came back again.
I downgrade to Android 4.0.4, tried fix apps like "FIX MY WIFI", also download the patch file " wpa_supplicant" and all these steps did not really helped or fixed this issue.
Internet and google didnt really gave me the good answer and also there are many tablets with this problem.
NOW, If anyone KNOW anything about that problem PLEASE TRY TO POST YOUR SOLUTIONS.....
Thanx alot

Excuse me, can i know what is your csc country, i think it's a rom problem
Mine is UAE, are you the same?
I have the same problem on stock nougat without root or any other mods. Didnt recognize it until i created a tasker profile which depends on the wifi. Now i clearly see that there is a problem, cause the profile switches on and off.
I have already disabled bluetooth/wifi scan, smart network switch and set the wifi to always on - nothing helps...

I have the same problem and I have a (BTU) CSC. I thought it was to do with my battery saving apps and RAM optimisers, so for example for me L Speed but for other it may be Greenify, BatteryCare etc. These apps contain a feature called Aggressive Doze which causes things to shut down and close off while phone has been left inactive for more than 6 mins because if you notice our WiFi doesn't turn off straight away. I would definitely like to whitelist the WiFi application but I am unsure on how to do so. It's really annoying when trying to download big files and WiFi constantly keeps turning off and me having to keep screen on all of the time.
This could be completely wrong but please let me know if you and other guys on this thread are using such apps

How about "Download Booster" in Settings > Connections > More Connection Settings > Download Booster
That uses WiFi & Data simultaneously
Might also be "Smart Network Switch" under advanced wifi settings

You got WiFi calling enabled? Or VoLTE?
Or mobile hotspot?
Apparently caller ID apps will also cause this

I use Adguard and only see WiFi when on WiFi, and only see 4G when out of range of WiFi
It was same for me, but it just happened on both phones (one have never been rooted) and when I uninstall addguard again Wifi OR 4G icons, not both!
Maybe WIFi doesnt have internet access and phone switches mobile data on?
I found the Problem - SIM card I exchanged it and everything is OK for now
My bad, it wasn't SIM card but SD Card 200GB one
I have a similar problem. Very rarely, but it happens. Wifi and mobile data stay connected at the same time. And the bigger problem is that during this, one of the cpu M cores stays stuck on max load and frequency. Restart solves the issue, but i need to figure it out.
Android system usage goes up in the battery stats, but there are lots of processes included there. Is there an app that i can use so i can see in real time, which single process is ramping up one of the big cores? The phone is totally stock S7.
I will appreciate the help.
P.S. I really hate Samsung's garbage software !!
This was my solution
I recently downloaded a GPS spoof app and that's what was causing the Wi-Fi and 4g on it says it does it as app only works over mobile data. Due to some location pinpoint on Wi-Fi. Don't know if it's true but deleted it and gifted problem for me.
