3 out of 4 times my phone fails to disconnect the mobile data network when I connect to WiFi. This is draining my battery unnecessarily.

What could be causing this unless I can fix it so it is automatic I will have to stop using wifi so it doesn't waste power keeping both connections going.


I am running a 2.3.6 rom.

Do you toggle the connections or just enable/disable WiFi? When you enable WiFi and connects, does the 3G icon (the two arrows) appear next to the WiFi icon?

my phone does both I have a program that shuts it completely off when I go to work then back on when i get home based on time.the rest of the time it is on even if I go away which then it just disconnects but wifi is still on.


I have not paid enough attention to when it happens but when it does I have both the wifi icon and the data arrows at the same time.

What program are you using? Might a suggest a change for Juice Defender for example? or many others that do the same thing...
