hi, i'm new here and didn't found nothing to fix my problem.

I'm trying to use my wifi always on, i already set the wifi-policy on always but it still disconnects when my screen turns off so i'cant get notifications like mail, whatsapp, steam, etc.

i already tried with the different "wi-fi lockers" in the market but nothing.

my previous phone (galaxy 5) didn't have this problem so i think the router it's not the problem.

also, i'm using this baseband "S5830CVJKL4" and obviously in a 5830m (same as c and i)

thanks.

If you are rooted....use spare parts.

Are you using a battery saver (juice defender, for example)? If so, make sure you don't let it control your wifi.

Weird, i use advanced wifi locker for another tablet that i got that problem and fixes it, though, i noticed that works in some roms and in others don't.
Anyways maybe is because the rom? i use the stock galaxy one and i don't need to use 3rd party to get the wifi on always.

well, aparently IT IS my router, tested in a friend's home with his wifi and didn't have this problem.

weird, the problem it's only when my screen is off, i guess i'll call my internet provider tomorrow, thanks guys.
