I am going crazy with Watch 4 Classic.
every time I turn it on the wifi turns on automaticly although it is turned off before i turn off the watch (it always gives a pop up saying Wifi(Auto) whether i turn on or off.
I tried factory reset but the problem happened again
I had galaxy watch 3 and there were options of on/off/auto
I need to turn it off permanently and only works when i turn on.
thats beside the laggy disappointing performance. The watch is literally not usable for at least 3-5 minutes after turning on
Any help
Thanks
I found the problem....
It was the ADB debug over wifi enabled that keeps turning on the wifi with every boot
Thank you for this hint. I was just about to post the same. I found abnormal decrease of battery stamina - that was the reason.

Hi all,
I just got a Droid 2 Global today and I notice if you leave it alone for a while (which is hard to do with a new phone) the WiFi will turn itself off. The first thing I do with new Android phones is turn the WiFi Sleep Policy to "Never". And that is what I did today, but it still appears to be sleeping.
When I wake the phone I notice that the WiFi is off (Both up in the notification bar and the widget is dark) and the 3G is off as well. The only that is showing is bars. In about 5 seconds the WiFi will turn back on and connect.
Now this only happens if I don't play with the phone for a while. Turning the screen off and back on the WiFi will be on like normal.
As this annoys me that it is doing it, it is the 3G is off at this time as well. Which means the phone isn't getting any data during the period that it is off. Which isn't good since I rely on Google Voice for all of my texting, which won't come in unless there is a internet connection.
Any help on this will be great,
Thanks
I did find out what was going wrong last night. In Settings>Battery Manager>Battery Mode it was set to Nighttime saver. That would have been bad because I work 3rd shift and I'm up and using this mainly at night.
I have tried a few auto turn off apps on my transformer while screen is off but WIFI still stays on. These Apps work well on My Samsung galaxy.
Another thing I noticed is that everytime I set the WIFI disconnect policy to turn off wifi when screen is off. The setting goes back to "never". Not sure how it gets reset, and maybe thats why these apps do not work.
Any ideas?
revolver parts wit revolver rom, the revolver parts app let you turn of wifi automatic
I am on stock rom for now, until I read thru all of the forum and get comfortable with switching rom. I am rooted atleast and have CWM installed.
So is there any other app?
Auto airplane mode from the market. It turned off for me.
Try with Tasker
will try auto airplane mode but I need something that turns off wifi when screen goes off.
Also, afraid to buy tasker before I know it works.

Auto Airplane Mode will turn WiFi off when screen shut off.
I use it, work great. The one I use for some reason is not in the market any more
but there are others.
TRIED auto airplane and did not work.
I think the issue is that something always changes the setting to never turn wifi off . Instead of what I keep on setting it to disable wifi when screen is off.
Is there a app that is changing the wifi policy settings>?
green power app fixed my problem. found this out in another thread.
I'm using tasker with a profile to turn airplane mode on 5 minutes after display goes down. It doesn't sleep if there are certain apps which require internet connection (tunein radio for example) and turns off airplane mode for 1 minute every 30 minutes.
I'd never used tasker before, i own an Android phone too, but i found it simply amazing!
Seems like you have an app that wants to keep wifi on. If I were you, I'd try to get to the bottom of this and figure out which app is causing this issue to occur. In fact, the culprit sounds fishy.
Hello !
for a month or so, my phone is sometimes shutting down suddenly without any reason (and it is random, I can't provoke it...)
I called HTC Customer service, and they told me it could be caused by some apps. The problem is I only have extremely popular apps (as SoundHound, Doodle Jump, Angry Birds...)
They told me to turn on the Safe Mode, and... Two hours later, my phone turned off.
I tried several times to get the logcat, but it appears that logs are deleted when the phone turn off.
I saw that I am not the only person with this problem, so if you have any suggestions/ideas...
And also, when the phone turn off, when I turn it on, the battery level drop down (example : 80% before the turn off - 20% after reboot)
Thanks !
Hi,
I'm having the same problem. I've fixed it setting the network mode to 3G only.
Does anyone know if this problem has been reported/investigated?
Thanks.
Hi guys, i noticed an irritating problem with my One S after a few days of usage. My WiFi turns on at random, and remains on when my phone is in sleep mode. This occurs when I have 3G on. I have turned off using WiFi in sleep mode.
Anything else I can do? I feel like this takes a toll on my battery life.
I wouldn't worry too much about wifi if you just got the phone.
While its connected it shouldn't use up the battery. Afaik
It's the searching that uses battery.
yeah my wifi is on 24/7 i dont experience any drain through it..
you could put a toggle widget on one of your screens to turn it on / off.
it shouldnt be switching itself on it you manually turned it off
But it does exactly that! It turns itself on even after I have manually toggled it off. irritating as it searches for open networks even if I have data on. How do I resolve this hmmm
Maybe Tasker would help?
EDIT: Still unsolved - see post nr3
"keep wifi on during sleep" is set to "only when plugged in" - it worked like a charm in lollipop (it switched off wifi after some seconds of disactivity), it doesn't now.
EDIT: In lollipop after some seconds of inactivity wifi was turned off, that was proper behavior I guess... It is not working in Marshmallow.
1. GSAM Battery monitor seems to have problems with showing WiFi activity on Marshmallow (shows "on" when switch is turned on, but it's inactive). I used build-in Marshmallow graph instead (settings > battery) and that showed me, that WiFi is indeed being turned off during sleep.
2. In my Lollipop WiFi became inactive just seconds after screen turned off. I expected the same behavior from Marshmallow, but it is different. It seems, that now wifi is turned off after 20 minutes of inactivity (checked few times).
Am I right about deactivation timer in Lollipop / Marshmallow? I guess It's much better now, since in Lollipop I sometimes had to keep screen active in order to install all upgrades, etc. But for me 5-10 minuted would be perfect instead of 20 minutes. Any way to change that?
After some weeks I have to say, that problem is unsolved. I can't repeat the situation when wifi was turned off when phone went to sleep.
I tried safe mode - the same effect, wifi is on when screen is off. Even after I am going back home with phone in my pocket it automatically connects to the router (with screen turned off, phone should sleep)
Does anyone have similar problem?
Bump - more info.
When I turn off Wifi my phone uses 1% or less battery during night. With Wifi turned on it uses 5-10%. If it worked like it should and turned off wifi when screen is off it would use the same amount of battery life as when wifi is off.
Could anyone at least confirm, that I am the only one that has that problem? Your marshmallow Nexus 5's are working as expected?
