I have an issue where WiFi will turn itself on even if I had it off in settings. It has happened when WiFi and mobile data are off and when only mobile data is on WiFi will turn itself on. I only noticed this when I had both radios off to save battery but turned screen on to check the time and saw it on. Anyone else had this issue or knows of a fix. I am stock, unrooted and on 4.1.2. Thanks

Do you mean keep WiFi on during sleep? If I leave WiFi that doesn't bother me. It's when it's turned off, it turns itself back on.

I have a question. Im using Gingervread 2.3.3 . I find it irritating to restart my phone if i just turn off my WiFi to use my 3 G. Is there any other way for my 3g to turn on itself once i off wifi?

just on the 3g by hold the power button for a second , and choose Data network mode and active it , after you use your wifi it will off , and after you aren't useing wifi it will on by itself
I have done that. My data network have never been deactivated before. But sometimes when i off my WiFi, my 3g doesnt on. Need to restart my phone then it will on.

When you turn on wifi, 3g turns off! But gsm phone calls will still go through!
I knowm but for my case, i off wifi, 3g doesnt automatically connect. I need to restart my phone then it will.

Anybody else experiencing this.. Wifi is on and connected but my 4G-LTE arrows are still showing and flashing as if it was transmitting and receiving.. but my Wifi is on??
I am using Launcher Pro instead of LG Home so I have access to the power widget in the Notification Bar but not the LG Home power controller.
I just installed Power Control Plus and it seems to shut off LTE and 3G when you press the 3G button and can keep it off with or without Wifi on.
I've noticed this. It doesn't bother me due to the fact that I have unlimited data. If it want for that it would bug the **** out of me.

As far as I know, on all the android phones I've had, u have to manually shut off mobile data even when connected to wifi. There are apps that include this option when making "profiles" that get triggered (tasker, CPU tuner) but otherwise I think it stays on unless manually turned off. Maybe its not using mobile data but it appears to stay "on".

On my olds droid the 3G would turn off when I got onto a wifi network. I might just be special. Lol

I have the same issue. It actually goes further, because when I manually turn off mobile data through the Settings menu the data icon still stays on. If I use a tool like Dataswitch the icon goes away, but I never had to do that with any of my other phones.
The other issue with wifi that I'm having is that if I set the Wifi sleep policy to turn off after 15 mins of inactivity it can't reconnect after it turns itself off. So when I start using the phone again it just keeps trying to obtain the IP address of the network without ever succeeding. I've tried this on multiple networks. I have to turn off wifi and then turn it back on. Anybody experience this?
These issues aren't big but they're starting to make me question the quality of the LG Revolution and I may exchange it for the Charge.

I have this issue too, and it is annoying. I'm not worried about exchanging it, because I'm sure this will be addressed in the port of CM7 that TheCubed is working on.

Do issues like these usually get fixed in a port of CM7? Do you think the issue of mobile data staying on when it should be off will get addressed as well?
Any idea when CM7 for the Revolution will be available?
This problem started happening this evening for no reason.
Normally when I turn on Wi-Fi 3g turns off. But for some reason this evening when I turn it on the e or 3g is staying on even though I have full Wi-Fi signal( sitting next to it).
anyone any ideas how to fix this.

Maybe try wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache...
Are you on a custom rom?
Did you try a reboot?
You sure net trough wifi was not off?

Activate wifi and go to http://www.hostip.info/ from the phone to see what network interface the phone uses, if it's the 3G one it's probably the phone having problem detecting internet through the wireless router for some reason, if it's the wifi something is messed up im afraid.
Not sure where in the rom it's defined to shut it off when wifi is detected.
Hey,
Two days ago my phone started to turn off the wifi connection when the screen is locked. Sometimes I even have to restart the phone to get the connection back to work.
It does not happen to the 3g connection.
I have checked all apps if any of them are causing the problems in their settings. And I don't use any battery saver apps.
Anyone had the same problems?

You've checked that the "turn off wi-fi when screen is off"-option in advanced Wi-Fi settings is set to "Never"?

I have all of my Wi-Fi notifications turned off and I still get notified of Wi-Fi. Also, I've found that when I turn my Wi-Fi notifications on, it turns itself right off as soon as I leave the menu, and still notifies me as if it were still on.
Any ideas?
