[Q] Wifi & Mobile Data Issue (ICS)

Ever since upgrading to ATT ICS, my WiFi and Mobile Data connections both are turned on during the night. During the day, I don't run either. When I am at home, I use WiFi and then turn WiFi off and plug in the charger before I sleep. When I wake up in the morning, WiFi and Mobile Data are turned ON. This happens constantly for me.
The second thing I tried was not putting the phone on the charger for the night. Come the next morning, WiFi is ON but Mobile Data remained off.
Something is triggering WiFi and Mobile Data to automatically turn on. I can't seem to find the setting that is allowing this to happen.
With GB, I never had this issue. If I recall correctly, GB had a setting for the sleep period of the phone. I don't remember much else of what was adjustable in that menu and I can't remember if I set anything in there for GB and data. I cannot find anything remotely like that in ICS. ICS is bloody annoying me right now with these quirks.
I wish I could downgrade back to GB right now so I don't have to deal with data turning on during the course of the night.......

If you want to go back to gb look under the development tab for return to GB from ics. It's down a ways. Not sure what to tell you about the other issues but to try and reflash ics.

Try Airplane Mode
Sounds like you have some app trying to make a connection to run an update. It's turning on WiFi and/or the Mobile Data connections. I'll check mine tonight to see what happens.
Try turning on the Airplane mode when you go to bed. Hold down the power button and select the Airplane Mode option. If that doesn't keep the radios off, something is really wrong.
I sometimes use the Airplane mode at night to conserve the battery, but since you're charging, that's not an issue.

I found the thread. Thanks. I just need to read about unlocking the bootloader now before proceeding. The only downside of downgrading is I will lose the ICS radio which is giving me such good signal strength. Before in my room at home, I would get 1 bar, now I get 2 or 3. LULz.

This happened since day 1 of upgrading to ICS. The only software that I installed were some games and utilities that I had on GB. I never had an issue with either data connection turning on.
I might try another flash of ICS but that would mean running it for a night without the downloaded software for a couple nights and then installing each one by one, night by night.
I can use airplane mode but not for long term. I need to be able to receive calls from work when issues arise during the 2nd and 3rd shifts.
This only happens at night. It never happens during the day which makes me believe something is happening during the phone sleep time. And there's no setting that I can find for the phone sleep time like GB. Grr.....

Why not just leave data on if u don't mind me asking. Can't be using that much data really

Yep I have the same issue.
I have observed the data icon appear on the stroke of midnight. It takes three attempts to keep it off till the next time I use it, or when the damn thing turns back on at 23:59:59.
Spoke to HTC support, they advised to return it to retailer for them to examine it....WTF...lol

We have two threads on this issue of WiFi and/or Data turning on at midnight. When I first found the missing voice dialer problem, I e-mailed HTC support. They responded to my e-mail and then a member of their escalation team called me. They recognize that this is an ICS upgrade issue. Of course, they don't know when it will be fixed.
If you have not already done so, log into HTC.com, go to Support and send an e-mail describing the problem. They need as much feedback as we can give them to get HTC and/or Google to fix these problems.
I am not surprised that the ICS upgrade broke some things, but the number of things surprises me.

Check your setting. Drop the drop bar and enable Wi-Fi connection then touch the bar next to the off-on switch. Touch the icon next to the home icon on the bottom of the phone and click on advanced. See the screen shots.

Too bad. I noticed mine came on the first night after I installed ICS. Took awhile to find the settings I posted. When I found the settings and clicked on the one in the picture I never noticed Wi-Fi come on on its own since.

So I finally got around to trying Airplane mode. WiFi still kicks on overnight while plugged in.
vivid x2 - I had that checked to "Never" and I still have WiFi and Mobile Data coming on at night.
brucegil & FPV-GT - I will submit a support email ticket. I'm surprised there aren't more of us on here that are having this issue.
syrkel - I don't want either WiFi or Mobile Data on. If I'm not using it, why have it activated? All I need during the night is 2G voice so I can respond to work issues that may arise.

Just throwing another thing to look into. Try to reset the data counter and check it every few hours to see what apps are using the wi-fi data? Some of the apps even allow you to access the app settings from there as well. Check some of the app permissions and try disabling a few apps at a time that allow changes to wi-fi settings.

what a coincidence. i was just jacking around on my phone in class and found the advanced wifi option and there is a setting to keep wifi on during sleep. it has three options: always, only when plugged in, and never. hope this helps

Try installing a juice defender. It turns off data when your screen is off automatically. Also, (maybe only in the paid versions) you can set a night schedule for it to disable connectivity for a set time automatically. I have mine disable all data connections and go to silent mode from 12:30 to 8:30.

I tested this last night. Before I went to bed, I turned off WiFi (Data remained on). On the WiFi advanced settings I had the Keep Wi-Fi on During Sleep setting to "Always," which is the opposite of what people here have mentioned. I plugged in the charger. However, I have my Vivid set to remain on while on the charger. So it technically never went to sleep. (Makes a nice night light.) At 2:30 a.m. when I woke up, the WiFi was not on.
Tonight I will keep the same settings, but I will not put it on the charger (I'm testing the 3400 mAh Mugen extended battery). I will see if the WiFi comes on during the night.

I wonder if this is part of Googles data collection. I have gone through 3 vivid phones in the last 2 weeks (long story). I have seen this problem happen with no apps other than what came with the phone. My wifes phone (another vivid) does the same thing. If the phone is turned off for the night, turning the phone back on has the same results (mobile data is on). This seems to be a random problem.
When you allow Google's locaton service part of the message says that you are allowing Google to collect data even when no apps are running.
Just a thought.

I've been trying to figure out what's causing it...see my last couple posts here.

Stock ICS Bugs

Does anyone else think this update was half baked?
I'm having a lot of issues with the new update. Bluetooth keeps skipping like a scratched cd, Wifi won't connect just keeps requesting ip from router then I have to shut off wifi and turn it on manual to connect, I really need to fix these problem any suggestions.
Can I roll back to 2.3 stock some how?
Are there any other good forums for this phone?

I love it. No problems with Wi-Fi. As a matter of fact, to get Wi-Fi to work in gb,I had to reboot the phone everyday. Also no ghost calls. Being able to turn off data and Wi-Fi manually gives me 2 days of battery life.

you get 2 days of battery life???mine can only go for 8 hours!its really annoying!the phone takes so long to charge fully but the battery gets done so quickly. secondly there is no way to manually toggle between 2g/3g/4g! why??? the performance too is crappy.....the phone responds slowly

Notification delay issue?

I have a delayed notification issue on my device. Whether I'm on stock version or using ARHD, the issue is still there. Even I used an app called push notification fixer, it still can't help. So anyone can help me pls??
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

I'm also having this problem, I've already tried the AT&T version and the US unlocked version, on stock software and ARHD. It happens with all of them. Power saver is off, phone set to keep data connection even when screen is off.
So far I've noticed that Whatsapp, Gmail, and Google Voice are affected. I wake up in the morning and have to go to each app and refresh to get my messages, and sometimes even during the day I get the notifications hours late.
It's driving me nuts and ruining an otherwise fantastic phone!! I'm surprised there's not that much talk about this on the forums.....Any ideas?

Notifiction Delay only using data
first of all, i have a HTC One (available to use on all networks) with delayed notifications whilst the phone is sleeping, ofcourse ive searched and selected all the correct settings but unfortunately i still get delays.
However, this problem only occurs whilst using the data package, i dont get this problem on wifi even if the phone has been sleeping for hours, the problem is only whilst using the data provided by etisalat. (the data works fine whilst using the phone, but when the screen turns off it just seems disabled) Ive tried multiple sim cards, still the same problem.
I contacted HTC, i hard resetted my phone and adjusted the necessary settings i was instructed to, but no use, they told me to send my phone for repair using the warrantee, the repair shop said it was a feature of the phone and ALL HTC ONE PHONES HAVE THIS PROBLEM, i then emailed and complained to HTC customer support and they agreed with the technician saying it was a permanant battery saving feauture and a new device would not be sent to me,
so, is this true? does everyone experience this issue?
I found an app 'Push Notification Fixer' , it requires rooting the phone , do you think it will solve my problem?
any help on how to proceed would be much appreciated,
thank you

Problem solved. U can download an app called Push Notifications Fixer. Use this app and everything should be fine. Btw change of firmware also solves this most probably, not confirmed.

(Q) Wi-Fi switches off automatically when screen turns off

So I'm on 5.1 stock and this is really annoying me now. Wi-Fi switches off randomly when screen is off. Wi-Fi always on is checked. Any suggestions?

Is the battery saver option turned on? If so is it starting up to save your battery and killing wifi?

I'm also having this problem. My wifi is configured to aways on, I'm not using any battery saver and even initialized my device in security mode, but the problem continued, so it is not a 3rd party program problem. I even posted on official Motorola forums (and on a lot forums through the internet), but no one could help. I guess it is a bug on 5.1 because I didn't have this problem on 5.0.
I installed a program to solve this problem, but it needs to keep running:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roamingsoft.manager
Use the wifi repair option. This is the only way that I find to solve this problem. I hope they fix it on the next version.
Sorry for my english.

I tried a few things to investigate this and without root on my device I'm potentially unable to get to logs that we could then compare. So since that approach didn't work, I have some environmental questions. Does the problem occur when you are carrying the phone in your pocket, or when it sits on a table unused for a period of time (or both). I'm trying to eliminate shaking causing the issue. You also mention that it happens with the screen off are you sure that it only occurs in that situation (that is a strange detail).

I can confirm this. It is as if the Wifi Always On setting did not work. When screen sleeps, 3G/LTE kicks in. When you wake the phone up, it'll go from 3G/LTE to Wifi. This has indeed arrived with 5.1, as 5.0 did not have the issue.

Yeah it only occurs when the screen is off. The minute I switch on the screen I can see that it goes from mobile data to Wi-Fi even if Wi-Fi is on. Also, it is irrespective of where my phone is pocket or on a table top.

I have a XT1094 (Moto X 2014) and have not noticed this. Based upon a post above you have the XT1095. We have the same Android version, just a different carrier version of the hardware. It sounds like when your device is going into one of the lower power states (the screen going off etc), the wireless is erroneously included in that transition. On my tablet I had a similar issue in that going to a lower power state would kill the sdcard which would then not properly reconnect when coming out of that lower power mode. If you prevented the tablet from going into that lower power state, the sdcard problem would not occur. Unfortunately the side effect was worse battery life in that case.
Do you have root on the device? If you do you might be able to do do a test similar to what I did on the tablet, however it would only prove the theory not solve the problem since worse battery life is an ugly trade off for a phone and the only way to actually change the sleep state transitions was to build a modified kernel that changed the sleep state itself (for my LG tablet one of the developers solved the issue and I just used the custom kernel provided)
Info on the "Sleep State" C-State is here https://plus.google.com/+PaulReioux/posts/9R8fjQdHDXD
For the tablet I had to disable the C3 (power collapse) sleep state, my post over there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57719782&postcount=138
No idea if this will help...

I have an XT1095 stock 5.1 un-rooted, and I do not have this issue. I remember reading a similar thread here when 5.0 came out, so this is not a problem specific to 5.1. I don't know what is causing it, but it is clearly not a universal problem.

Don't have root. And have never rooted the device either. Somehow I'm just massively dissapointed with 5.1
Doesn't seem like a finished product at all. Battery life has plummeted from 3.5-4 hours sot easily to barely making it 3 hours

Had this problem suddenly in 5.0 and continued in 5.1, the only fix was back to 4.4.4.

Here is the link to Motorola Forums that I've posted:

Hopefully this bug gets fixed in Android M.

Same problem that I'm getting. I'm sending mine back to Motorola and you guys can try that too to see if they can fix it. Apparently there's a speical dedicated team working on Moto X faults in Germany.

Anybody have any news?
Is there a way to fix this problem without going back to 4.4.4?

Marshmallow issues

I have been on Marshmallow since the official release this past Friday. I am no rooted, never was on this phone. Phone is completely OE.
I have noticed a few issues and gripes.
1) No more volume control for just notifications. They are now controlled in with the ringer volume. To me, that sucks.
2) Smartlock is not working properly. I have to enter my password to unlock my phone 80% of the time in locations where it should be unlocked. (Home and work)
3) Where are the Doze settings?? I have looked all over for Doze and do not see it. Did T-Mobile decide not to include it?
4) I will find out for sure tonight, but when my battery got low the last 2 days, I lost LTE, was on 2G, and no wifi calling. Basically I had a phone that worked but was a paperweight. I do know there was an outage last night, I am hoping thats all it was, but I do notice my phone running slower and harder connections at lower battery levels.
4) Apps just stop working. I have to clear out my recent apps, and reboot my phone to get apps to work. Chrome wont load pages, Facebook wont load more than 20 (est) updates, news apps (local and CNN) wont refresh or load.
If anyone has had the same issues or maybe a fix, please help! Thanks in advance.
