I have now factory reset and flashed to Paranoid Android (based on CyanogenMod 9), and I still have this problem. I haven't seen anyone with a similar problem.

Wifi disconnects after going to sleep, even though it is set to always stay connected.

Other SGS2's does not do this, even with the same firmware. I need to use Wifi Fixer again to restore the connection when the screen goes back on.

At this point, the connection is immediately perfect, but as you can see in the first picture, the indicator in the taskbar is indicating no connection, and I am also not mislead by a data connection over 3g, which is disabled. Wifi Fixer itself also sais there is no connection.

After 5 minutes, both the indicator and wifi related apps suddenly say there is a connection, as you can see in the second picture.
[Galaxy S II General] Redsandro:
Solved

After six days, I found out that SIPdroid, the app I use for receiving SIPcalls, which I usually install without giving it a second thought, just like inserting my SIM card, is actually causing WIFI to disconnect after 15 minutes of inactivity, completely ignoring the Android sleeping policy setting for WiFi.

Anyone using SIPdroid - or anyone feeling sorry for me talking to myself as a n00b in my own lonely topic without anyone throwing me a bone - should star THIS ISSUE** to bring this under attention of the developers.

**) -edit-

This anti-spam noobs-cannot-post-links thing is starting to piss me off. So the issue in old-skool plain text url:

code.google.com /p/sipdroid/issues/detail?id=1058

I think the difference between wifi indicator connection and actual connection on reconnect are some kind of software latency and are actually irrelevant to the disconnect problem.
[Galaxy S II General] @Existence@:
Lollllzzz, good post!! A bit of usefull info, and quite funny! We're nOObs on XDA and we know it!!:D
[Galaxy S II General] wongsumber:
Have u found the solution? I also have the same problem and I haven't found solution yet... please inform me for the solution..
[Galaxy S II General] Redsandro:
Yes, I found the solution. I had to uninstall SipDroid. I am not kidding. I use SIP a lot so that's the one single app I installed immediately. But with CyanogenMod you can have SIP from within the contact list so I am not missing the app.

A design flaw causes SIPdroid to force Wifi off. Logic dictates that the apps should follow wishes set out in global options, but they did not agree with me on this.

It took me a while to figure this out, so I hope you have this app installed, otherwise you'll have to find yourself a completely different reason, and you're gonna have a bad time. But even so, I am 93,5% sure that it is caused by an app. If you do have the correct settings, there will be no system problems. Only app-induced problems.
[Galaxy S II General] RandomPlayer:
From the opening post "I do not have those problems. The setting sticks perfectly, and my phone connects to WiFi perfectly.

This problem is that WiFi drops the connection (is suddenly totally disaboled) everytime nothing is happening (e.g. screen is off), even though it is set to stay connected."

I have this same problem (at least I realized it with 4.1.2 LSD rom). Wifi is running and shows it has reception but connection is lost. And because it shows it has reception it doesn't switch to mobile data. Quite annoying problem.
[Galaxy S II General] Redsandro:
Like I said in my previous answer, it was an app that caused this totally unintuitive seemingly broken behaviour. I almost sent my phone back.

Took me a week to figure out it was SIPdroid.
[Galaxy S II General] saadmshk:
I'm on STOCK ROM JB 4.1.1 rooted, I use VIBER, WHATSAPP, NIMBUZZ, TANGO, SKYPE etc....which app is causing this guide me Please...
[Galaxy S II General] Redsandro:
For me it was SipDroid. I don't know/use Tango and/or Nimbuzz. I hope you'll find the problem. With some bad luck it could be your rooted firmware. You can try a clean CM or PA and install one app per day until you notice Wifi is broken again.
[Galaxy S II General] jyanta:
Thanks for the Information!
[Galaxy S II General] HowDoIVoIP:
Here's a solution: Don't use SipDroid. If you want the best quality with Google Voice/Android, use this method. I made a 12-part video tutorial on how to set it up. So far, I've had many people confirm this method is by far the best option.

I mention the hardware and software requirements in the first video, so you'll know if this is ideal for you.

Hi

This is my first thread so please bear with me.

i am an iphone fan convert to samsung so do not know much about rom/rooting but using and becoming used to it.

So far i have flashed my s3 with cyanogenmod v8.0 -9.0 and omega 7.1, - 9.0 i like the features of omega but really miss the ios(iphone) style folder generation that cyanogenmod have.

can that feature be ported from CM to omega or is there an easy way of enabling it on omega rom?

thank you
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
It can't be ported but you can use a different launcher like Apex or Nova. Both apps should be able to do this.

you can do a factory reset too see if that helps but you will lose all your apps you have install and your settings, back them up first.

if its still the same looks like warranty repair

Basically, my cappy's hardware buttons popped out of the casing, and I need to figure out how to get them back in. I've searched around and couldn't find out how.

They're the actual gray buttons that you press from the outside of the phone.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nirajpant7:
Hmm...try opening phone and putting them back in. There a couple of videos on Youtube on how to open the phone. If that does not work out for you, there a couple of apps in the market that allow you to do volume + and - and Power on/off on the screen.

Hope it helps :)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] metalhawj:
what i had done was created a backup of the current rom i was using AOKP, to try another rom. i tried to restore back to AOKP using the back up but i kept on getting stuck in the unicorn bootup and it was just continually looping. I tried a few different things but still nothing worked.

I boot up into the bootloader and i accidentally did a factory reset from there and it wiped my entire sd card clean. so right now, im stuck without a working rom but i can still boot into TWRP recovery.

The very big problem right now is that i cannot mount the SD to my computer.

I kept getting this error as i was trying to restore to aokp too "E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)"

im not sure what is wrong with my sd card. it wont mount to my comp so i can transfer a rom there to flash. any help or ideas? thank you

Edit* i dont think twrp can read the SD. :'(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GroovyGeek:
Factory reset will not wipe user data on the sd, you must have done something else. Relock the boot loader, reflash he relevant Ruu to go back to stock then start all over again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Irish Enigma:
Try updating TWRP to 2.2.0

Download it, reboot device into the boot loader, go into fastboot using volume keys and power to select, rename the TWRP .img file to TWRP and put it into your ADB directory then fire up ADB and type "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img" reboot then try to mount. If I were a betting man I'd guess it will fix it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ashayden:

I am in the exact same situation as the OP.

[LG Optimus 3D] BigBadSheep:
Hello to you all...

I'm using a lot my phone while I work. But I have to work with my protective gloves on or any time I want to use the phone must take off the gloves. Which can be a real hassle. So, my question is: how can I use the touch screen with my gloves on. Tried the method from the touchpad (the one with the '-' polarity), thinking that should be same principle of work but not working. The dedicated pen - for capacitive screens not working also cause it needs contact with skin.

On instructables.con I found some things but I can't find - well I can but it's impossible for me to buy some conductive thread.

Anyone got any idea?
[LG Optimus 3D] Deth Becomes You:
You can buy a glove meant for touch screen access like used during winter season.

You could also just cut a small hole on the tip of one of your gloved fingers. <-- I have done this.

Can't buy cause I must use safety gloves, that I change at least twice a day. But your idea of cutting a small hole... genius. Never thought about it. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sarshadd:
I have a few profiles set up to turn WiFi on when connected to certain cell towers (around my house and work).

I noticed since 4.1.1. WiFi keeps turning itself off despite the Tasker profile being active. Often times it will be on and connected then when I check my phone later, it's simply off. If I turn WiFi back on manually it turns itself off again.

I added the 15 second wait to the exit task thinking that there was trouble between cell tower transitions and 15 seconds would be enough for my phone to sort itself out, but it hasn't fixed the problem.

My profile is set:

Cell Near

> Set WiFi On

< Wait 15 Seconds/Set WiFi Off

Is this a Tasker Issue with 4.1.1 or is it some Radio issue? I flashed the 4.1.1 radio with JB, XXLF1 or something...

[Nexus 7 General] cesjr02:
After a few weeks of waiting I received my Nexus 7 today. I'll admit, I can be pretty picky about these things. I noticed what I first assumed was a crack in the top-right corner of the bezel. Upon further inspection I noticed a similar mark, although less pronounced in the top left corner, in the same spot. There's a third, (even less noticeable but still visible mark in the bottom corner of the bezel, [not pictured]), and the remaining bottom corner looks completely fine.

Question is, am I the only one with these cracks/defects, and while it may seem too picky to some, I'm very tempted to do an exchange. Pictures below.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Whyzor:
This study confirmed what I believed all along for a lot of Android apps, they have bugs or just inefficient code in them that drains the battery when it shouldn't. I hope Google, the developers of AOKP, CyanogenMod, & others focus more on this issue. A lot of custom ROMs & kernels introduce problems too. Sure we can all just slap on after-market batteries, but I prefer to not carry a brick in my pocket.

http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/research/2012/120613HuSmartphoneBugs.html

ABSTRACT:

Despite their immense popularity in recent years, smartphones are, and will remain, severely limited by their battery life. Preserving this critical resource has driven smartphone OSes to undergo a paradigm shift in power management: by default every component, including the CPU, stays off or in an idle state, unless the app explicitly instructs the OS to keep it on. Such a policy encumbers app developers to explicitly juggle power control APIs exported by the OS to keep the components on during their active use by the app and off otherwise. The resulting power-encumbered programming unavoidably gives rise to a new class of software energy bugs on smartphones called no-sleep bugs, which arise from mishandling power control APIs by apps or the framework and result in signi?cant and unexpected battery drainage. This paper makes the ?rst advances towards understanding and automatically detecting software energy bugs on smartphones. It makes the following three contributions: (1) We present the ?rst comprehensive study of real-world no-sleep energy bug characteristics; (2) We propose the ?rst automatic solution to detect these bugs based on the classic reaching de?nitions data?ow analysis algorithm; (3) We provide experimental data showing that our tool accurately detected all 12 known instances of no-sleep bugs and found 30 new bugs in the 86 apps examined.
