This.
Even you turn off the Wi-Fi, the hardware is still on and searching, just it won't connect to any network.
But FYI since Android 4.1 there is low Wi-Fi battery consumption feature that phones use and if you are not connected to any network while Wi-Fi on, it will use maybe 1% battery overnight. I don't ever turn off my Wi-Fi because I want to connect to know network as soon as I am in the range and have the same battery as turned off.

Maybe you are affected with malware. Check for monkey test and ikeyboard in apps.. Or use stubborn trojan killer app or malwarebyte app to verify.. Had the same problem in samsung a3 solved by rooting and usong these apps.. Hope this solves ur problem.

Hah. No need for that. You can try flashing only your ROM and installing nothing and enable the wifi always scanning and you will see wifi is always on.

Yes, is related to Google location service.
In OxigenOS you can turn off Wifi Scanning, but after that the wifi will be much slower in the connecting process.
In HydorgenOS there is no option to turn off Wifi Scanning.
I prefer to have wifi scanning active even if it will use more battery. On my phone, in 3 days, the Wifi shows 1% battery usage.

[Q] Wifi causing battery drain (15%/hr)

Hi all.
For the last month or so I have been unable to use wifi because it drains my battery too fast. I have had this problem with Litening rom 3.1-2, Sensation Rom, running the stock rom, using stock kernels, litening kernel, siyah... I have no idea what else to try. I have wiped data, all of the caches, reflashed, bricked, fixed the brick, and still dont know what to do. Does anyone have any advice?
Thank you in advance.
Given everything you've tried, that's obviously a router issue. Maybe update your router firmware or try another router. Definitely not a phone issue. There's something in your router settings causing it, you could also do a factory reset on the router as well (make a note of all your settings first) & remove all encryption, then add back settings one by one in order to try and isolate what's causing it.
I dont have a problem with my computer or any other devices on my home router. And the phone has battery drain when wifi is on, not necessarily connected even... The one thought i had that might be connected to my home router is that it disconnects and reconnects every 5 seconds when on my home router.

Try this...on your wifi settings go to Advanced then on Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. choose Only when plugged in or Never. This will turn-off your wifi when your phone is sleeping.
Also, the drain can be caused by other applications not necessarily your wifi. Use BetterBatteryStats to check the wakelocks.
This is from the fluxi kernel thread:::
Q: Wakelocks "wlan_rx_wake" wake up my device constantly what I can do about it?
A: The problem is neither Android nor the kernel, but the router and the (Windows7) network. In the network properties, uncheck "IPv6", disable the service "IP Helper", "Shell Hardware Detection" and "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service", which provide ongoing Traffic. Then they scored again 98% of deep sleep.

Have You tried a ICS 4.0.4 CM9 nightly??? They are very stable and muuuuuch better than the stock ROMs. I've got WiFi on all the time and still can reach over a 24hrs with screen on for aprox. 4hrs..... Maybe this will work for You.

Wifi and Google Services major problem!

Hi all!
I have an international version of the S3 with a weird problem.
When I have Wifi connected my phone can't sign in to Google talk and wont receive notifications. I can browse and download stuff though.
If i switch to 3G all is well and working. I have tested on different networks and I have a galaxy tab 10.1 connected to the same wifi without problems so it's no ports in the firewall that's causing it.
If I restart the phone it works for about a day then it fails again and I have to restart the phone to get G-talk over wifi.
I have tried setting the phone a static IP, switched "Keep wifi on during sleep" on and off, tried the trick with power saving in debug menu but nothing helps.
Has anyone experienced the same and can someone maybe suggest a fix?
Best regards
Erik
I have tried IM+ and that works perfectly over wifi. The problem is that since GTalk does not work over wifi then I don't get notifications from Google Play or other apps as well. When i switch over to 3G I get all notifications at once.

There is nothing wrong with your phone. Google are having problems at the moment:

So don't go do any impact testing or aerodynamic analysis of your phone, it should all come back to life soon

The problem is that it have been this way since I got the phone, not just yesterday.

Losing network signal while charging

I use a lot of internet sharing (wireless). I noticed that when I start charging battery my phone is dropping signal network after a while. When I switch the screen back on, signal comes back. it's very annoying and it doesn't happen when phone is not charging. At first I thought its rom/kernel/modem related but problem remains with different combinationsb of above.
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?
Do your RIL and Baseband match?

I guess so. Usually I use modem provided with rom. It looks like phone was going to deep deep sleep that it even loses network service and it wakes up when screen turns on. But as I said it happenes only when charging and, I think, only when I use internet sharing.
edit:
just checked with getril app and it says unknown ril so cant really tell if they match. I've put a NEAT rom 3.5 just today and didn't have chance to check wheather it still there or not but i guess it will still be there.
Your RIL and modem can change. The modem is up to the rom maker, they decide which one to use wheras your RIL stays the same from what you had on stock rom, unless you changed it of course

First of all, sorry for asking the same question twice (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1489237), but this thread seems to describe my problem even better.
I am using the latest Cyanogenmod 10 nightly on my Galaxy i9100, and it appears as if I have a similar problem. When I start charging my battery, the signal usually drops after a while. This is quite annoying, because I use my phone as WLAN hotspot. Rebooting the phone (charger connected) does not solve the problem. Instead, I usually have to unplug the cable and after that the phone quickly picks up a signal again.. I also tried to switch the airplane mode on/off. But then I cannot switch the airplane mode off again, so something really seems to be hanging. In these situations, the baseband version shows 'unknown'.
I have just used the app GetRil to confirm that the Ril and baseband version are matching.
Has anybody solved this problem? Is this a hardware or software issue? Are there any things I could test or should I provide more information?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Guys' though I've never experienced this issue with wi-fi hotspot, I do know why the wifi turns off when your phone is charging.
So to settings > wifi> press menu button> choose advanced
you'll see an option what says "keep wifi on during sleep" or something of sorts. The default is set to "never". You guys need to change it to "always".
Cheers

Sorry for the confusion, but I think you got me wrong. It is not the WLAN connection that drops. It is the mobile network connection that drops, so I cannot make/receive calls or use the 3G connection anymore.
Update:
Didn't find solution, flashed back sammy stock rom with custom kernel and all problems vanished. Using stock rom since than and never had this problem again.

Just for the records: I could also solve this issue by flashing a stock rom again. This must be a problem of Cyanogenmod.

I had this problem too and all I had to do was turn off fast charging in the settings
I think it turns off or lowers the strength of the network so it could charge faster and that's why it does this
I don't know much about tech so it might only help with my phone ( which is the Samsung a12 ) but I also hope it helps you too
Good luck

[Q] Wifi Battery Drain but Wifi OFF -

Possibly from Software Upgrade to 850MUBUBOB1 -
I see WIFI as Battery Drain and shows as "ON" according to Battery Stats but
is not ON.
Cleared Cache and shut off Wifi in App Manager...
Will this go away on next Battery Cycle or is it one of those weird quirks like on S6 ?
Should I force stop Wifi for awhile then restart ?
bro, i have same problem. i format my phone 2 time to solve this problem. but it didn't stop .then i think that some one hack my phone. but last i manage my self to solve that problem.
go to ur wifi setings . then click " advanced". then unmark this one "always allow scanning". now every thing is ok.
google call it feature. but it is not.google helps NSA to monitor u. if u r threat to US.

Android 6.0 shutting down data connection (Wifi and mobile data) in standby

I am not sure if this is a 6.0 problem or the problem of my new umi super so please excuse that try finding answers here first. My Phone is shutting down mobile data and wifi connection when going to standby.. not immediatly but after an undefined time span. Calls and Calender notifications are still comming throught but i recieve a billion whatsapp messages at once when turning on the screen. any ideas? i have never used clean 6.0 just sultan roms up to know, so i cant really say if this is a basic problem, an umi problem or just settings i screwed up.
Thanks,
M

With root you might be able to. It would depend on where it is in the code. Make sure to double check all data connections. Make sure they are not set to be disabled when screen is off.
I would contact them and see if they have the kernel source somewhere. Explain to them what is going on and maybe they will help fix it. (don't count on this option)
