Wifi always on in android change from always to never

Post by Zadigre »

I have a Galaxy SIII.
My setting for the wifi while sleeping is set the stay always on.

The problem is, if I logoff from Dell voice and exit the app with the back button, the setting will change from always to never.

Is there a reason why it's doing this?
Is there a way to disable this "feature"? I really want to have my wifi always on.

My Wifi is doing the same thing. I didn't know how it was being changed until I read this post. So I checked as I had just exited from Fongo, and sure enough, the Wifi has been reset to go to data when the screen sleeps. I don't want this setting to change from "never" going to sleep where I had it set initially. This started with the latest update on my Android version 2.3.6. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Wifi sleep setting getting changed when exiting Fongo ap

Post by bflemin »

This issue is still happening on my phone. I shouldn't have to reset my WiFi settings every time I exit the Fongo app, yet I constantly have to remember to check the WiFi sleep settings. I only use the data network when I absolutely have to, so I have it turned off most of the time. Why would the Fongo app assume that I want to change from WiFi to data when I'm stationary in a WiFi spot such as my home? This never happened in previous versions. Please check to see why my setting (WiFi never sleeps) keeps getting changed when I exit Fongo. This is very annoying. Thanks in advance.
