Im not sure how to change the settings, but I always see my 3g staying connected for long periods right now its at 45 mins. Im not sure how much it affects the battery life. My battery still says 98 % so I guess it's not too bad, but I still dont need it on all the time. Also I have changed the connection to shut off in kaiser tweak after 5 mins.
Thanks for the help
Well I installed new Comm Manager with 3G button. I turn it of there. It still connects to GPRS when I go to Internet but stays connected only for 1 minute because I have set it like that in my KaiserTweak.

which version KaiserTweak are you using?
Its probably staying connected as you have an app running that wants it connected.
If its dormant but connected I don't think there's any real downside.
Im not really sure what would be keep the connection alive. Is there a way to tell what app is using the connection ?
all I know of is just using the process of elimination. Use the task manager to turn off a program. If the 3G doesn't turn off a little after that then move on to the next one.

is your phone off in comm manager?
is your phone connected to usb cable?
if your phone is off in comm manager then the "phone" icon will not be highlighted tap it or press it and should be highlighted
if your phone is connected to usb with "active sync" icon in comm manager highlighted then disconnected and try it
other then that well go to t-mobile and ask them to fix it hope it helped
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.

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?
I am using havoc v2.9 in redmi 4x.
Wifi is always auto turned off after screen is turned off.
It is not turned off immediately but it will be after a moment. If I turn on screen, wifi is back.
Therefore, I can not download file if screen is off. It will be stopped.
Anyone know how to keep wifi is always on?

Sorry for late reply, Yes this i was talking and also the settings which are available in settings > havoc settings > battery savings. under suspended actions there is option to switch to 2G when screen is off (not sure if it is causing the issue) try to turn off that.
i have one issue that when i move out of saved Wi-Fi network and comes back to to same network, the Wi-Fi does not get connected automatically until i wake the device and this happens to all my saved Wi-Fi networks. (Wi-Fi is always turned on my device in day time, it is off in night or when not needed)
it should connect Wi-Fi automatically to saved Wi-Fi network(s) when i have not turned off Wi-Fi from my device before going out of the range of Wi-Fi and later coming back to same Wi-Fi network.
rather than this i do not face any issue with connecting Wi-Fi once i connect to it, even after locking the device or restarting the device.
it only does not get connected automatically when getting out of the range and coming back. it requires to wake the device once and it remains connected until i am in the range. after that i must need to wake device just once to connect.

Oh, I see
Maybe I went out of Wi-fi range and then I came back, the Wi-Fi did not get connected automatically.
hope that android 10 do not have this issue
