I have this situation and not sure if someone can help me out. Thanks in advance.
I turn on the WLAN connection on my ATT Tilt then I turn off the phone before I go to sleep.
When I turn the phone back on, it tries to connect any available wifi signal (I also turn off my wireless router at night).
Is it a way to disable the TILT automatically tries to connect to the wifi signal upon the phone is booted up?
Thanks.
yes. Disable wlan in comm manager before u turn it off!

I thought so too . but I was hoping to set the registry for this matter.
Thanks
Well... there is a setting to keep the wifi connection on, even while sleeping. But theres no such thing as dont connect when the device wakes up, especially when its enabled to connect
Hey guys I tried searching but came up empty handed here.
Whenever I put my nook in standby (push power button or it automatically does it with inactivity) the wifi connection turns off. I've got it set to do that in spare parts so that it only stays "awake" while charging and not while idle.
The problem is it doesn't do that. Regardless of if it's charging or not, whenever I wake it up, even though wifi is enabled in the settings, it doesn't search on connect to my network. I have to go into Setting -> Wireless and as soon as I go into that menu, it finally connects automatically. It won't do it unless I go to that menu.
I'm rooted with the 1.0.1 Autonoonter btw.
Mine was doing something similiar. For me, it kept hanging up on obtaining an IP. I used an app called Wifi Static (free in the market) to set up a static IP and haven't had any problems since. Wifi seems to shut itself off way less often and when it does, it only takes 1-2 seconds to auto reconnect. Don't know if it will help you or not, but it's worth a try.
Have you done any modification of the wifi settings at all? Like the ad-hoc supplicant mod?

I have not.
I have the problem but it only happens with certain routers others work just fine . . . weird!
I have exactly the same problem. It started with the upgrade to 1.1. Affects stock or adhoc supplicant.Very annoying. Yet to find a fix
I have a wifi issue that is a little different from other I have read here.
Issue: When my phone screen is off, it will NOT auto-connect to saved Wifi hotspots (eg, home, office) within range, until I wake up the phone (turn on the screen).
When it is connected to the Wifi hotspot, it will keep the connections even when the screen is off. (non issue)
I have set "Keep Wifi on during Sleep" to Always, and set "Sleep mode" to off. "Power Saver" is off too. Mobile data is off (I turn it on only when I need it). I checked battery usage, and Wifi is constantly on, just that it does not connected to the saved Wifi.
My question/issue is, is it normal for the One to not auto-connect to saved Wifi hotspots within range when the screen is off?
On my old HTC EVO 3D running ICS, it will automatically connect to the same hotspots without the need to wake up the phone (turn on the screen).
My One is still using the stock Rogers firmware (1.29.631.4)
UPDATE: I found that this appears to happen only when the screen has been off for a longer time (more than a couple hours). If I have waken the screen up an hour before it entered the saved wifi range, then it seems to auto-connect fine. Need more testings.

I do believe it is normal. It's to conserve power your phone would have to have a wakelock to connect to another network draining power. As I understand it the ONE puts the wifi into a power saving mode when it's not connected so it's not constantly draining your power while driving. Once you wake the screen it will then connect as it assumes you want it.

Should that be an option to turn that off, such as the "Wifi Sleep Policy" I saw from some other rom? Or the settings I mentioned above disable that behaviour already?

Don't think so. The wifi sleep would turn the wifi radio off which isn't happening. Oh quick thought check the network and make sure the phone is set to auto connect that would do it for sure!

Nevermind isn't there. Maybe I'm thinking of stock android or maybe I'm thinking of another OS.
Can anyone else confirm if this behaviour is normal or not?
So if I don't wake my screen, I will never get any sync when the screen is off and I just get back into wifi range?

Go into WiFi Settings, Go to the menu and click Advanced. Change "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to "Always".
WiFi will connect with screen off.

As I have indicated in my first post, this has been set to "Always" already. Are you sure that works for you?
What is the phone not doing that you want it to do? Just turn on auto sync if you want your email and FB updates to be waiting for you. Or is that not working?
Quick test. Put your phone to sleep with gmail autosync push mail on. Turn off data and only enable WiFi. Then send yourself an email from a computer, if you get a notification on your phone while it is sleeping, then it is working. Or you can place a voip call with viber or send yourself a viber text from another phone.

It is not auto connecting to the saved Wifi networks when I go to work, or when I go home, with the screen off. I have to wake the phone (press the power button) and you can see that it will connect to the saved Wifi networks. The FB notifications and Whatsapp notifications are pushed, so they don't require auto-sync to be on.

If my phone is already connected to the Wifi networks, putting it to sleep will NOT disconnect it from the Wifi network. It only happens when I changed from one saved network to another (home to work, or work to home) with the screen off, then it will not auto-connect. I have tested that and I'm not getting the notification in that situations. I have to wake the phone up to trigger the auto-connect.

Is your wifi toggle always on? Or do you turn it off once you leave a certain network? The only way the device will auto connect to a saved network, is if the wifi toggle is already turned on before you go near a saved wifi network.
If you want a saved network to automatically turn on wifi and connect to a saved network, you will need some thing like juice defender. It teaches itself to know when you're near a saved wifi network and it will automatically turn on your wifi toggle on and connect to the saved network. Then once you leave the area or lock your device, it will automatically toggle off wifi and disconnect from the wifi network.

Not sure what you mean by "wifi toggle always on". My Wifi (under setting) on the phone is always on. I never turned it off. Under Power History, I can also see that Wifi is always on (un-interrupted blue bar).
I contacted HTC support, and they asked me to change the WiFi band frequency from "Auto" to "2.4GHz" and reboot the phone. It seems to have fixed the problem so far (after a couple days of testing). Although it would have been nice if they can fixed the problem properly.

Yeah, I just got the One almost a month ago and seriously thinking of returning it because of this issue. I wish I wouldn't have rooted it because since I did for some reason I can't get ADB to recognize my device. I've tried everything my noob brain can think of to fix it and the wifi issue but nothing works. I see that no other developers have a fix either as no apps or threads here give a solid solution.
I might give AT&T the money to warranty it and just get another device but I want that to be my last resort.
Personally, I think it might be an isolated hardware defect that was addressed with later devices which is why it is not as wide spread and therefore doesn't generate a need to find a workable solution.

BTW I've flashed several of the popular roms on XDA to see if that fixed it including Viper and CM but to no avail...

Not sure if I have been using the phone more, or if I have flash new radio (Radio from 2.17 base - 4A.16.3250.24_10.38.1150.03L (flashable Zip) and rom (ARHD), I don't think I have this problem any more.

can you flash a radio with S-on? I don' wanna try it and brick it. but I have been wanting to see if that fixes it

No, I believe you have to be S-Off to do that, or else you need to flash the firmware. Have you trying reinstalling drivers or try on another computer to get ADB to recognise your phone?
Hi All,
I'm new to Tasker but reading around various forums, it seems it will do what I need, just not sure HOW and I'm hoping someone here can help?!
I have an Android car radio and a Nexus 6P. I want to be able to setup a task/profile so that when my phone pairs to the headunit via bluetooth at power on, it turns the phone WiFi off and the WiFi hotspot on. Then when the car is turned off and bluetooth disconnects, it will turn off my phone hotspot and turn my phone WiFi back on.
I'm sure it's fairly simple for someone who knows what they are doing, any assistance would be much appreciated!
I have this set up with a profile like so:
State=bluetooth connected, 'CAR KIT'
--->task 'CarTether' (WiFi Tether=Set On)
<---exit task 'CarTetherExit' (WiFi Set On)
I have another profile that turns off bluetooth after 1 minute if it's not connected, thats what triggers the exit task (since it's no longer connected to 'CAR KIT' when I turn off the car). AFAIK when you turn hotspot on your phone will turn off wifi on its own, but you need to turn it back on (hence the exit task), and when wifi turns back on the hotspot should turn off.

Thanks for the advice, I've managed to setup a tasker profile that turns on wifi hotspot when Bluetooth connects and turns on wifi when it disconnects. The task works well, except that when the hotspot turns on, the radio won't connect, it gets stuck on obtaining IP address and Los to connecting, obtaining IP address but never connects. If I manually turn hotspot off and on again with the quick menu toggle it connects straight away. Any thoughts?

Hrmm...I've not come across that one. If I had to guess, maybe one is trying to do something before the other is totally ready? The only thing I can think to try is experiment with a 1 or 2 second delay in different places, like a 'wait 1 sec' in between the bluetooth connecting and the hotspot turning on

That sounds like a good plan, I'm not sure how to add in a delay though? If I edit the task of turning on the hotspot I get the option of adding an if variable, but not sure how to put in a delay...

Action > Task > Wait
What Vagelis said^
Once the 'wait' is in your task you can 'grab' it by the right edge of the screen and drag it up or down, wherever you need it.
i looks like tasker does something wierd in Android 10, this worked always in Android 8 or 9 but now it doesnt.
when i get connected with my radio tasker turns on Tether but never turns is off when i disconnect bluetooth from my car.

Is the exit task actually running? What does the run log show?
This could be a device issue on A10 as well. If tasker is getting killed, it can't run. Take a look at https://dontkillmyapp.com/ for what ever device you have.
It also helps to post the description of your profile when asking for help. There is a sticky post in this forum with instructions.
