Thanks for the reply guys. I should have been more clear on what I was requesting. My bad. I meant turn tablet to airplane mode when screen off as I don't need it to keep working in the background. The app auto airplane mode worked perfectly on ICS but not on JB or KK.

Managed to do it though with llama and secure settings. Works a treat. Tablet has been in the draw for the last 2 days 7 hrs and only lost 20% battery. Not bad I guess... :)
[Android Apps and Games] dragonfly1113:
Will this app work even if the cell signal is turned off on the phone since the phone doesnt have its own cell signal i just turned off cell tower access to help with battery but im assuming this would make this app not work is that correct?
[Android Apps and Games] :
wifi on/off depends from the current cell tower.

if your phone is in airplane mode or your phone hasn't phone capabilities, obviously, the goal of the app can't be do.

Previous app version (not supported anymore), that is based in time can be downloaded here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53076214&postcount=16
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

Thanks for the log. This is complete, that I need.

As I suspected, from a given point, the wifi driver does not load properly because it's is in a wrong state

(lines 59421 to 59423 from Log_2014-06-06_14-14-22.txt)

This is due to a bug in the driver and only occurs on some devices.

The solution is to set airplane mode (or restart the device) in order to set the driver in a know state.

Unfortunately isn't possible (since Android 4.2) to the apps to automatically set/unset airplane mode.

I'm working in a solution, but no date at this moment.

Sorry.
[Android Apps and Games] :
For those that are suffering issues with the wifi, can you test this version?

In order to test it, please, install attach then go to settings then check "Workaround for wifi activation issue" preference.

Select "Accept" in the dialog, then provide root permissions.

After that, close the app and report if the issues are solved.

Thanks

EDIT: Removed APK

I see in the log view that there are some airplane mode activations.

Attached are the screenshots from log view.

Thanks for keep trying to solve this problem :)

Hi,

I attach test 2.

I think this will work.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
No, the same... :(

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Android Apps and Games] :
can you explain exactly your problem?

Is your WiFi enabled but can't connect or not capable to connect or enable and connected but can't sent /receive data?

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
Lets assume that when I first enable the application, my WiFi is ON and I'm connected to my house's WiFi.

I'm moving away my house, so getting disconnected from my WiFi ---> device's WiFi is still ON, but not connected.

After a while (I assume getting into a new GSM cell coverage), devices WiFi is getting OFF.

When coming back to my house, device's WiFi is still OFF.

Your application is trying to turn it ON, but my WiFi is non responding (I can't change it state to ON neither manually).

The only way to make my WiFi be responsive again, is by soft reseting my device...
[Android Apps and Games] :
ok,

please can you let me know if in app connections log view you have some airplane on/off items (the icon is a green or red airplane).

also, please, check if the wifi can be responsible seting airplane mode on and off instead of reboot the device.

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
I installed latest test version while I was on the way to my home (device's WiFi was turned on but not connected).

After a while, device's WiFi turned OFF.

After I got to my home, WiFi still was OFF and not responding.

I thing a saw those airplane icons.

I'll reinstall it and have the checks done again...

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
As you can see in the new screenshots, there are several airplane on/off icons.

As I understood, application was able to re-enable WiFi, only once.

Now that my WiFi is non responding, it can not be responsive again after setting airplane mode on and off (even if I done it several times).

WiFi becomes again responsive, only after a reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] dimm0k:
as I understand this app, if you manually turn off Wi-Fi then this app turns itself off until you manually turn Wi-Fi back on?

if this is true, then what happens when going into Airplane mode? I currently have a Tasker profile that turns on Airplane mode if there is no cell signal, but turn Wi-Fi back on if it was on before going into Airplane mode. what I've been noticing is that this app never turns Wi-Fi back on, only off...
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

In fact no... There are not airplane mode on/off logs here. airplane logs as one of the attached icons.

sure that you have enabled the woraround in app settings and allowed to receive root permissions?

if possible, please, reinstall the app again, then send a logcat when you detect the issue.

thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
Sure, here is a full logcat from the time started the application (device's WiFi ON but not connected to a known network) since came to my house's WiFi network (but device's WiFi was OFF and not responding)...

EDIT:

You are right, I didn't see these airplane icons...
[Android Apps and Games] :
Sorry,

but I think you aren't using the workaround version of the app or you not have enabled the workaround solution in settings.

Sure that you are using the version from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53461722&postcount=95 ?

Thanks again!

Note: I think you aren't using this version due to this version is sending to the log some strings that are not in the posted log.
[Android Apps and Games] jolas:
I'm using the version you mention (WirelessManager-2.2.75-woraround-test-2.apk) and I do have enabled the tick for workaround wifi fix :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] joaonuno:
hi bartito,

does this mean that if i have the wifi issue i shouldn't upgrade to version 2.2.76 from playstore? (and stick to version 2.2.75-woraround-test-2)

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] :
2.2.76 is the last play store version, and don't includes the workaround, that is only included in the test version.

If you love to test the workaround you need to use the test version.

If you install the test and after you upgrade to the last play store version, you are losing the workaround...
[Android Apps and Games] joaonuno:
apparently i can't install version 2.2.75-woraround-test-2 over playstore version. is it normal? (i don't want to uninstall and then install....)

i can wait till you release it to the playstore version, no problem.
[Android Apps and Games] :
This is normal.

System prevents to install a early version. You need to uninstall .76 before.

Sorry, I can't publish it if I don't have feedback due to I'm not capable to reproduce the issue.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] :
2.2.78 published a few hours ago, turns on Wi-Fi when you exit from airplane mode.
[Android Apps and Games] Outrager:
Does this app reduce the accuracy of location data in battery mode?

[Android Apps and Games] :
Sorry, I can't publish it if I don't have feedback due to I'm not capable to reproduce the issue.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] :
It works fine.

Just ensure you have copied it correctly...

Paste the code that you are copying if you doubt...
[Android Apps and Games] joaonuno:
Hi,

I think it works better. Sometimes i have to turn wifi on myself (the app doesn't do it) and it works without me doing the airplane workaround. Some really few times i still have to do it manually, but in general i think it's working better.

I think it would be nice if this was included in the playstore version, so we also could update the app.

i'm no expert on android, but if i can help you with any testing for this bug, as you can't replicate it, just tell me what to do.

regards
[Android Apps and Games] :
If possible, I appreciate if at least other user can post about the beneficts of the woraround, before push it.

thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] fantomatico:
I have been testing it today and it works better. Wifi now is turning on by itself when returning to green cells. And also it lets me activate and deactivate wifi manually which didn't work before the workaround.
[Android Apps and Games] My Beer Belly:
I've been using this for about 18 hours successfully. I'm on a US T-Mobile HTC One M8 with S-off, running ARHD 8.1 and Elemental kernel .19. It has so far had no issue toggling wifi on and off based on my home and work location. I have lowered a few of the timers from default. Oh... I'm also running the latest Play store version.

My hope is this will replace the 5 Tasker profiles I was using to automate wifi based on cell near and wifi near states. Something was going on with the profiles and they couldn't detect cell near states unless the screen was on, even with Tasker's workarounds enabled. I haven't noticed this happening so far with your app so I'm optimistic. Are you familiar with this tasker profile setup? If so, do you know if your app will have the same issues regarding screen on/off and cell state detection?

I'll continue running for a few days until the app really has learned my work and home locations and report back with the results. But again, very happy so far. Thanks for the great work.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi

In all my tests the system is notifying correctly the cell tower updates but, you can check by yourself enabling connections log at connections view :)

Cellular/GSM

Hi Developers and XDA-Community,

I like how this App is Working. My Suggestion: I have a very bad GSM-Network at my Homeplace. At Home I go into Airplane Mode and turn it on when I leave home. Since know I've done this with Tasker but I wanted to ask if you could change the App so I could use it for this Setting. Or do the Community have any ideas?

Thanks alot!

[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
I am running 2.3.82 on a 4.4.4 stock ROM Nexus 4 and have a strange problem. My home WiFi network has 2 access points and is WPA2 protected. For some reason, wifi scheduler will recognize the green cell tower, but I don't connect to the network. If I try to connect, I get the enter password box but even if I give it the correct password, it doesn't connect. OTOH, if I go into settings and turn off WiFi and then turn it on again, it connects immediately without any problems or delay. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Please,

Can you post a logcat?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
It doesn't happen all the time, only once in a while. I'll try to catch it and get a logcat to you.
[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
OK, I got a logcat. I hope it helps.
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
so far so good with me, i have had it 24 hours now and it is monitoring my wifi areas nicely.

My only worry (not the right word at all, just an observation) is that my home cell tower covers a very wide area (as i live in a village) so when i walk to the station in the morning my cell tower goes from green to red (1). If my train is delayed for example and I stay in the station for a prolonged period of time my green cell for home would turn into a red cell?

so far this is replacing my llama. just need it to control autosync and then its perfect!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

In fact no. A green cell becomes red when is visited X times without ability to establish a wifi connection. The time has nothing to do.

Also, you can fix a green cell to green, in order to inhibit the conversion to red/black clicking in the "hearth" icon at the right of the wifi network name.
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
bartito

thanks for the quick reply, and well done on an excellent app.

I understand what you say by the time having nothing to do with it, thats fine. When you say fixing a cell to green thats great, but does that mean that my wifi will remain on all the time when in the green? If not what is the general purpose of fixing a cell to green?

What is in your "wishlist" in your development of this app? Do you have any desire to extend functionality to have control over autosync and/or volume control?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

No, the wifi isn't on all the time you are in a green cell.

When you enter in a green cell, the wifi becomes on for 2 minutes (or the configured time).

After that, the wifi becomes off and remains off for 60 minutes (or the configured time).

After that, if becomes on for 2 minutes again........

The general purpose of fix to green is to prevent to a cell become red/black if the phone enters/exit some times from the cell without establish a wifi connection.

This can occurs if you are in the coverage end of various cells.

Autosync and volume control depending of the connected wifi network sounds good :)
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
Ah i understand.

One more question and i will leave you in peace I promise!

Under settings - wifi related events the first option is called "When App activates wifi". Your description hereunder is "It is time that passes before deactivate wifi app when app activates wifi due to entered in a green, yellow or new cell tower"

I am afraid I dont understand what that means. Do you mean that when the phone is linked to a green/yellow/new cell tower, the wifi is activated and this setting decides how long to keep wifi on before giving up?

If so how is that different from the second setting called "When disconnected from a wifi network" ?
[Android Apps and Games] :
You can ask the questions you want. no problem. :)

Due to I'm not english and I use the Google translator to help me in the english translation, probably I'm not correctly explain... :(

When you enter in a new/green/yellow cell tower, the wifi is activated (if deactive).

If a wifi connection isn't established before this time (2 minutes by default), the app disables the wifi for a while (also configurable).

After this time, the wifi is enabled again for 2 minutes...

This helps to save battery...

Note 1: if your modem is off when you enter in your house, the wifi was disabled after 2 minutes. If you set to on the modem after this 2 minutes, your phone can't connect to it

since the next algorithm loop.

Note 2: aclaration to the note 1... if before the next algorithm loop the phone RIL is connected to other cell tower, and this new cell tower is new/green/yellow, the wifi is activated (for 2 minutes and blah, blah, blah)

Sorry for my english :(
[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
Hi Bartito,

Anything new with my connection problem? Was my logcat usable by you?
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
I understand.

Perhaps "When App activates wifi" should be relabelled " Wifi deactivation time limit" - the description thereof could be something like:

"Upon entering a green/yellow or new cell this is the amount of time the wifi is to remain on before deactivating as a recognised wifi connection cannot be established"
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

Sorry, viewed your logcat, but no idea about the issue :(

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
Any advice on what to try? is it a problem of WPA2?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Really I don't understand why you have this problem.

The only that I made is enable (or disable) the WiFi using estandard methods, not reflect or bungling...
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
Any chance, under Notifications (in settings) that we can disable the notification in the status bar but KEEP the icon in the status bar?

My problem is that (now that it is sunny outside) I often mistakenly click the "deactivate scheduler temporarily" (there is a typo there, you spell it temporally) and then when i get to a wifi area indoors I dont understand why my wifi isnt connecting!
[Android Apps and Games] :
This can be do?

Note: Thanks for the typo correction.
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
No it cant. If all icons in the Notifications area are unticked, you have to click the show notification button, then the notification icon and if you untick the show notification button, leaving the notification icon only everything is removed.....a bug?

No icon in status bar

Hello

I ve been using WS for two monts now in my Samsung Note with Asylum 4.4.4 with great success

As of a couple of hours ago, I notice that I had no icon in the Satus Bar ( it is present in the notiifation panel) . I tried unchecking and checking again but no luck..

The log shows a cell has been detected and Wifi is working normally..

Any idea what could happen?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] :
This as no much sense...

The only possibility is that you have disabled the "show icon in statusbar" setting.
[Android Apps and Games] ricardowec:
I just rechecked my settings. Everithing seems to be in order, excpet for the notif icon missing.. Rebooted the phone as well just in case :confused:

I can post screenshots if required.

Cheers

EDIT: I just did two things:

1) I reflashed the latest ROM build with same result.

2) I restored a previos buld (10/07) and the Icon is back. There must be something wrong with the UI, so I am quoting our RomMaster [MENTION=4406720]chasmodo[/MENTION] in order to let him know about this issue.

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
two comments from my experience so far:

1 - I have noticed that at times my mobile data is on at the same time as my wifi (though I have it set up so that the app deactivates my data when wifi is on) - I have to manually disable this (not often, maybe once a day)

2 - In Connections History, I would love to not only have info on what has occurred but also what process the app is in currently (ie is it 30 seconds in to the 2 minutes I have set for the wifi to connect?) because I dont know what is happening until I see the wifi icon disappear if there is no active connection for example.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hi,

1) Note that if you configure this the Mobile Data only was disabled if wifi connection is established, not when the wifi is enabled. Also, the Mobile data is enabled again when the wifi connection is lost, even if enabled.

2) This sounds good. Added to the to-do list.
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
I see, my problem with 1 is probably related to 2 (as i couldnt see what stage the app was in)

Also, did you look into the issue on the notification icon? Ie I just want to see an icon to make sure the app is running, I dont want to see it in my statusbar where i can accidentally deactivate the scheduler.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Please, pinch in the notification in order to don't show the "disable temporally" checkbox item
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
ah Ok thanks that gets rid of it nicely. But only temporarily??
[Android Apps and Games] :
you need to wait to next version to receive a permanent setting for this :)
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
Thanks

I am still having the occasional issue where the app is not disabling days even though wifi is connected. I have to manually turn off data or wifi and get the ago to turn wifi back on.

Another issue is that I find sometimes the wifi wont connect until I have woken my phone from deep sleep...

Bartito

Yes I know of Accounts Sync Profiler and its an impressive bit of software but its not quite tailored enough for me. I does not allow me to make a rule to sync every 10 minutes when connected to WIFI and every 30 minutes when connected to data for example.
[Android Apps and Games] motisu:
I may have found something to do with this problem. I had wifi being turned off when the phone sleeps and not plugged in. (settings, wifi, advanced) I changed this to always on and it seems to have solved the problem. I don't think that this setting is good as it means that the wifi is on unnecessarily, but I hope that your app will make up the difference.
[Android Apps and Games] nickmax1:
motisu - I dont think it makes that much of a difference, I have tried it for a few weeks both always on and always off in deep sleep and the change to battery life is not noticeable.

Probably new version will take a few hours to replicate in all the Google servers.

For now the changes introduced in the beta have not been published. it is unclear who actually served for some.

Note: if your current version is one of the betas , you don't need to uninstall before install the update
