Anyone notice on the IIi when you want to turn on the wi fi, you tap the G icon in the top bar, it takes a while, almost 10+ seconds for the popup box to appear with the link to turn it on? However, when you need to turn it off, the box appears pretty fast.
It's gotten to the point where I have a shortcut to the Wireless Manager in my start menu below the icon for wi-fi companion. I hope there's a fix for it.

OK! GPS is working fine for me. Just that it takes forever to lock when there's no active data connection. Otherwise is a beauty. Now my problem is one hooked to sats the icon stop blinking which is normal but then it wouldn't disappear after I've switched off GPS. I mean to say that the icon stays there even after GPS has been switched off. Also when this happens it doesn't speak to satellites nor attempts to see them in lbstestmode. I have to restart my phone again for the icon to disappear and the phone to start talking to the satellites.
BUMP to the top!
I'm trying to set it up on my NC so that the WiFi turns off when the screen turns off. I'm following directions I've found on the net, but I can't seem to find the right condition.
I set up a WiFi off profile, and set it to turn wifi off, and under conditions, I have the following options,
Add Condition
Time Period
Calendar Keywords
Location
Incoming Call
Missed Call
Unread Text/SMS
Battery
Wired Headset Attached
Connected BT device
Connected to WiFi
Docking State
Profile status
I'm trying to get it to quit rebooting after the screen shuts off. It's becoming quite an annoyance, but not being able to find this setting is driving me more crazy.
Any one have this running and working?
there should be a screen status condition. you have to click inverse logic after selecting it. unsure why you're not seeing it :-\ but it also looks like you're missing some other conditions too. i have many more than that on the free version. screen status is at the bottom for me.

Yeah, Screen Status is the last condition on the list for me too, on the Lite version.
Silly me, I have been working in landscape and had to scroll down. Thanks guys
I'm having trouble with the GPS on my ZR. Basicly it seems that it won't startup when I startup an App like Google Maps, Waze or Foursquare. GPS function is on, but it won't activate, no GPS icon shows in the top left corner. Nor does it find satellites when I check that through an app like GPS Status. When I turn off GPS by using the widget, and turn it back on, most of the time the GPS icon will appear in the upper left corner and I will get a lock on. Sadly this won't last, the icon dissappears and so does the GPS lock.
I tried this fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197842
But it does not work. From the start, the app shows that my phone wont even find the satellites, in stead of just not getting a fix with them.
Anyone have any suggestions on what to try? I am om the official update 4.2.2 and unrooted.

GPS works very well for me in both 4.1.2 and 4.2.2. It seems your GPS doesn't work at all. Maybe take it back for a replacement?
Just to be sure... try tapping on the lower right icon that zooms to your default location with GPS off. It should show a pretty wide blue circle. When you toggle GPS using the widget and you see the GPS icon appearing shortly on the notification bar, can you check if the blue circle shrinks due to the more accurate GPS measurements? Of course try this in an open area...
The GPS icon doesn't stay on for me always when I turn it on, I always presume it will only really be activated periodically when it needs to...
Have you turn on some power saving function? try to turn them off.
Problem went away, but unfortunately I dont know how. I did fiddle around with the app GPS STATUS and deinstalled Google Maps to stock. Cleared all caches too. Glad it was software and not hardware.

So I turn WiFi off when I leave home to go to work in the morning. See attached. It appears that WiFi is still on well after 9am. All the way up until I reboot the phone in the afternoon. Then is appears to be off until I turn it back on at home. Any insight?
go under wifi settings and make sure scanning always is turned off. that setting will make wifi stay on even if you turn it off.
On the picture you have, it's on.
To turn it off, swipe down from the status bar twice, and tap on the WiFi icon.
Or go to Settings, then Wi-Fi and slide Wi-Fi to the left

Thanks, I am fully aware on how to turn it off, and I do just that. My question is why does this show it was still on that whole time?

perfect. this seems to be it.
Also make sure that "Always allow Wi-Fi Roam Scans" is unchecked under Developer options.
Hi guys , so I'm using "device only" for location. I notice that frequently, the location icon pops up in the notification bar "searching for location". It lasts about 2-3 sec but I found it quite annoying. When I changed to " power saving ", of course it didn't show up any more but I'd like to keep using device only since it doesn't seem to affect the battery. Note that I use some apps that requires location like google fit. Does anyone experience this? This is a brand new replacement. I don't recall seeing this icon too much with the last Note 4 (I also used device only back then"
Only time you won't see it is if GPS is off. Other than that go with what you like. Icon will still appear
BAD ASS NOTE 4
