MiUI constantly closes and stops downloads after 30 minutes after the phone has gone to sleep.
This happens not just to browsers, but even the actual Play Store. What gives?
I've already gone into app settings and disabled battery saver (set it to "No restrictions") and allowed background data in the data usage settings.
There's a setting called "Restrict data usage" and you can select WiFi and mobile data. If you deselect both (so neither are restricted) the app cannot access the Internet. So you have to restrict them for it to work.
Someone said to go into developer settings and turn off MiUI optimisation. That option isn't available in MiUI 14.
I am using stock MiUI 14.0.2.0 TKDMIXM (Global).

greetings friends,
i have a problem with mobile data consumption for this latest upgrade. before this, when it was 4.1.2, i didn't remember android OS really need that much data. but when i upgraded the OS to 4.2.2, the data consumption is considerably high...
the problem is, i use daily internet package where i have to renew the pass everyday. when it exceeded the quota, i'll have to pay using my credit balance. and it is very costly!
how do i stop or disable the android OS internet consumption? any idea?
p/s: unable to post a picture. newbie here.
Just go into:
settings/more/mobile networks/and uncheck mobile data. That turns off data transmission - turn it on when you need it.
Easier way is to have mobile data on the quick pull down menu and turn it off there when you don't need it...
You can also enable Stamina Mode in power settings which disables data traffic when the screen is off

dear sir,
thanks for the response. very much appreciate it. :good:
i did limit the usage. but my concern is that, how can i turn off the 'Android OS' or at least limit the OS usage of internet. sometimes i didnt really use the internet, but it seemed the traffic kept getting higher. i did switch off the auto-update for all my apps.

Hi mate, I was facing the same problem after upgrading to 4.2.2.
The cause behind this is backup and rest.
Go to Settings->Backup & Reset and uncheck Back up my data.
The phones starts taking a backup of almost everything on your phone on some cloud server, which eats a lot of data.
Once you uncheck it, your data consumption will return to normal.

5 Best Ways To Reduce Mobile Data Consumption
5. Update your Apps Over WiFi Only
Many apps in Google play store get unnecessary updates by unnecessary i mean they are meant to fix bugs only, and have you noticed how many times all your apps were auto-updated without your consent, spending all them precious GBs, so wasting your finite date over useless updates is not a great idea. To disable Auto-Update you just need to open the Google Play Store and tap on the side tray button, click on Settings option and then select the “Auto-update apps” and select Auto-update apps over WiFi only.
4. Turn On Data Compression on Google Chrome
Most of us are Android users, coz this process is only for Android Users. And if you are an Android user you are also likely Chrome users. Most of us Don’t know that Chrome supports a feature that can reduce data consumption, Google states this feature should save you about 50% in data, without even feeling any difference. All you need to do is open Chrome and hit the menu button and select Settings, click Data Saver and then toggle the option and it done.
3. Cache Everything You Can
Like Google Maps and Google Play Music allow for storing data locally and many other apps. Make sure to save as many as caches and data you can while you are on a WiFi network. Afterwards you can enjoy your saved data without wasted Precious Mobile Data.
2. Avoid Online Streaming
The most awesome Things over the internet consume more data, this includes streaming videos and music, as well as looking through high quality images or GIF files. Try to avoid this kind of consumption as much as possible if you really want to save your mobile data. And if you need to watch it, make sure you change the settings and set quality at lower rates.
1. Restrict Background Data
Do you know that when your phone is not in use some apps spend your too much data. the feature we about to tell is actually one of the greatest features on Android. Background data allows apps to keep everything updated which leads to a great amount of Data wastage. so here is what you can do, Go into Settings > Data Usage and select Restrict Data for the apps that consume large amount of data and dont worry you can undo this by the same method.
[Q] Error message: "turn on background data" followed by wrong instructions?
I keep getting this curious error message "Turn on background data" accompanied by generic instructions as to possible ways this should be done. Which dont seem to apply to the Galaxy S3.
My unit indeed doesnt seem to scan constantly for emails or gmails unless I go to the program and tell it to do so. And it has just started telling me that I can't access the play store unless I enable background data.
I was just moved by t-mobile from a 200 meg plan to a 3 gig plan and I can't remember whether I ever disabled background data to reduce usage or to prevent anonymous tracking in some way. So I am not sure if turning it off is a disadvantage or a security feature? Or possibly some way of preventing Angry Birds from sending me incessant adverts when my young offspring demand my phone to play this game?
I certainly cant remember how I did this, assuming I was aware of doing it!
Does anyone know how to turn on background data and whether having it on is a good thing or a bad thing please?
Go to settings>data usage tap menu button,you should find a restrict background data button..untick it...
And about background data restriction,it's pros and cons completely depends on your usage..if you restrict the background data,no data's ( no means 0 bites ) can be used by Any app until you open it in foreground..its a life saver for those who have planned there data usage for every app they use...but if you are a free minded android user,and want to get everything from your device,you might not restrict your background data..
But it will cost a little (sometimes even more) datas without asking for your permission!

Actually that was why I posted: When I Go to settings>data usage and tap menu button, I find a restrict background data button which is unticked. There IS no restriction of which i am aware, so I wondered where it is on the T-Mobile Galaxy 'skin'?

Ahh I think you have restricted the background data for google play store or play services individually.
Go to data usage and tap on google apps like play store,play services etc.there is a restrict background data option for each app..make sure they are unticked..
If this doesn't help,I think I can't help you further..

This is indeed an odd one:I had checked that as well and restrict data isnt checked there either!
However, as to the immediate problem at hand, thanks for the advice: Is IS checked for the play store.
And maybe this is useful, to know that you can restrict background data for programs like angry birds?

Yep it's possible to restrict background data for all app particularly..
and if you find that restricting and unrestricting it from settings is a bit annoying,you might try apps like android firewall..they are too good to control your data usage.. but root permission required!

Every so often, I have to re-set-up an app. Like Android Auto, this morning, it wouldn't auto start again. When I started it, I had to go through "setup" again. Has anyone experienced that?
I've turned off the Security App's Cleaner to clean automatically,. I can't seem to add any exceptions.
I've turned off MIUI optimization in developer options.
Don't Keep activities: OFF
Background process limit: standard
Memory Optimization: middle
Anyone else have any ideas?
Hey guys I have an issue with my new phone. For some reason I cannot get my Honeywell T6 geofencing to work unless I put the app in the foreground. I've also noticed I don't get any notifications until several hours later for my apps and Gmail. I checked all these apps and they have background data enabled and I don't have the data saver on either. Any ideas??
Here's a few things to try:
Go to Settings -> Device care -> Battery
Select the 3 dots in the upper right and select Settings -> Sleeping apps
Verify the apps you have trouble with aren't listed in there.
Then, from the main settings screen go to Apps.
Find one of the apps you're having trouble with and tap on it (or just select any app you wish).
Select Battery -> Optimize battery usage
Change the drop-down from "Apps not optimized" to "All".
Verify that the apps you have issues with are not enabled.
I had this same exact problem with mine. The only way I would be able to get app notifications to come through was to reboot and everything would come flooding in. I tried the app sleeping apps thing but there was only about 5 apps in there, and out of all the apps I was missing notifications from only one of them was in there. The problem went away on its own though. Not a single clue as to what was going on or causing the issue.
The second part fixed my issues! Thanks!!!! I was scratching my head wondering what was going on! Once I disabled the honeywell it instantly recognized that I was within the geofence (ive been home for 20mins now)and started up my furnace!
After updating to Android 10 I lost battery saving option in Location Access settings.
Now I have to turn on GPS every time I open Maps or any other app that requires location. Before my location access was always on on Battery Mode.
Am I missing something or Android 10 requires always on GPS?
Same issue here. I suppose they just changed the way it works now. Even though I appreciate the possibility to prevent background apps from accessing location data, they removed the power saving mode

Well that kinda sucks... not having total control over location access...
