The wifi shuts off if there is no signal available, and the sleep mode function for data should still be there under the power tab. If these don't help, try doing it manually with widgets or quick settings (most reliable if you do it manually).

Hey all,
Dumb question here but first android phone so need your help.
I only have 500mb of data allowance with vodafone UK and just recently got a text from them saying im near my limit for the month.
Being at home with the phone I use an app called quick settings to disable mobile data and then enable wifi.
But just used network monitor app and it says that I've not used any wifi.
Can anyone help with what Im doing wrong as dont want to go over the allowance. Coming from a BB never had this issue as they ZERO apps worth downloading
Cheers
I use Network Counter.
If you want to know how much different programs waste, you can look at TrafficStats.

Thanks will give both a go. My worrying thing is android market doesnt seem to use the wifi when downloading even with mobile data disabled.
Maybe your wifi sleep policy is wrong, go to settings - network & wireless and go to wifi/wireless settings and tap lower left touch button at bottom of phone and select advanced once in that menu you should see wifi sleep policy select that and set it to never, it means the wifi is always on even when phone is locked. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the 2 programs suggested. Seems network monitor didn't show anything correctly.
With wifi on and data disabled your 2 suggestions show wifi kicking in.
Just gotta remember to switch on before downloading!!!
Thanks again
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?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App
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.

I have been trying downloading data file for the game use the installed game apps. However, when ever i dl halfway and the screen went standby, the wifi will be cut off. Is there any setting that i can set to prevent this?
In your wireless networks settings, under wifi settings, turn sleep to never

Hi,
2 days ago i've installend the CM7.2.0 Stable TASS in my Galaxy Mini.
For this flashing i've done alla the 4 Wipes.
Now i have this issue: when i don't use the phone and it go idle (after few minutes) the WiFi connection became disabled so i can't get the notification of apps the use the internet connection (IM for example)
When i take the phone and i unlock the screen, the WiFi connection became online again.
Is this a bug or just my unconscious bad configuration?
Thanks

I'm asking because with the previous RC5.7 i did not had this kind of feature.
Is it a way to manage this kind of features?
Menu>Settings>Wireless & Networks> Wi-fi settings> Menu> Advanced> Wi-Fi sleep policy
Or have you already tried that?
Wifi press menu advance sleep policy set to never

Thanks, i didn't know the "Advanced" menu for WiFi.
Now I've set to never.
I accidently turned off my browser bar when a pop-up intruded an email I was typing. I have no idea what the browser bar setting is but I cannot connect to any wifi network now. So I open up settings and clicked on the browser bar tab and it fc's settings every time. I tried a reboot, and clearing cache in recovery but it still won't let me turn the browser bar on. Any ideas here?
Not that I was at all impressed with the wifi capabilities on this device. My connectivity has been nothing short of pathetic and I've followed every rumored fix to no avail. I think I'm ready to try a factory data reset before my 14 days are up.
Again, any help is appreciated.

Exact same issue here.
This phone has the best WiFi I have had with any phone. There is a dead spot at my work wifi that all phones I have had would lose connection. So far, I have yet to lose connection with my 3 there.

It's very strange that the browser bar would have any effect on wifi connectivity to begin with. I've had it disabled for a while and haven't had any wifi problems.
Samsung has a bunch of performance/bug issues they seriously need to iron out. It's almost like they don't beta test these devices before they churn them out.
