wifi drop when the phone is sleep

[Guest DannyDanny]

I remember reading a thread on keeping the wifi on while the phone is sleep.

I think it is easily done by changing some settingsbut it is hidden in the menu somewhere that it was not easy to find (including me)

I tried to search for that article for few hours but there are toooo many posts with wifi issue. I gave up and decided to ask forum myself.

any idea guys?

Under WI-FI sleep policy I have set it to never go out but it still loses WI-FI signal when screen goes to sleep.

Thanks for that.WI-FI now stays connected when phone goes to sleep and can be woken up by pressing any of three buttons on bottom of phone instead of having to press the on/off button.

Dont get too excited, your phone isnt sleeping if you can turn the screen back on with buttons other than the power button, using this program will quickly drain your battery, so use it sparingly like when you are using the internet heavily during a certain period of the day.
