I'm in the UK, and using a Touch Diamond.....on Vodafone 3G. When I'm connected to WIFI, I obviously want to use that for data, rather than use up my precious data allowance.
When I'm connected to a WIFI connection, how do I know Opera/IE/Email are using WIFI - and not my 3G connection? There are times when I'm in my house, and I know it's using my phone data connection, as it's just so slow (very limited reception 3G in my house)....whereas the WIFI should be pretty fast.
i COULD be wrong here.... but the way i know is if the WIFI icon at the top shows connected. If you rphone cant find the WIFI, it'll always divert to a data connection. Play with your phone around the house, see where you get connectivity and how strong to your wifi.

Yes I know when I'm connected to WIFI and how strong it is....what I want to know is how I know whether my phone is using 3G/GPRS - when I am connected to WIFI and want it to use WIFI and not my phone network. There seems to be no indication to show you are actually 'using' the WIFI network over the phone network....
Settings > Communication Settings.
Turn data connection off, turn wifi on.
Do that before you use internet and your sorted.
On both my Diamond and Touch Pro, the Wi-Fi icon appears on the task bar when Wi-Fi is available. Same goes for 3G.
Also note that some programs call for a certain connection method automatically. For example, you will note that some programs initiate 3G instead of using your Wi-Fi connection. Hopefully, there is a configuration option for such apps.
Cheers.
i don't know if you notice it, but if you are connecting through E or H or G or 3G.. the reception bar instead of the antenna you will get the corresponding letter if you are currently connected to one of them
As long as your WiFi is on and none of those letters are showing up.. you will be fine
I was wondering why some WIFI networks display a grey circle icon with 2 arrows in it. I looks a bit like a synchronisation icon, but the arrows are not placed in a circle but rather up and down.
You can see this icon displayed behind the name of the WIFI network in the list of available WIFI networks. Not all networks do have it.
I have tried to search it but there were no clear answers. However the most obvious would be that the network supports something related to synchronisation, or maybe better bandwidth such as wireless N speeds.
that is for wps, a method to auto setup a secure connection, need router support

thanks a lot I think I wouldn't have found the meaning of it without you telling me (since the icon can stand for a lot of things).
I just got my 10.1 and am having issues with it using the 3g/4g network over my home network wifi. I've looked around but cannot figure out what I need to do to make my tab use the an available wifi network over 3g/4g.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
Once connected to Wifi it should stop using the 3G connection.
In settings check the status next to your access point is 'connected'.
Disable 3G and test.
Okay so I need some help. Out of the box when you have wifi on you'll see the wifi signal strength indicator and Data strength indicator but the "LTE" icon will be hidden until wifi disconnects and mobile data is connected. I was trying out the setting "Aggressive Wifi/Cell Handover" and while it sounds good in theory it doesn't provide any noticable difference in real world use.
Anyone since having that turned on the LTE icon remains visible in the status bar even when connected and using WiFi. It's not the end of the world by any means but I'd like it to not be there as it wouldn't be before I tried out that particular setting. I've turned off the setting and restarted my phone a handful of times but the pesky LTE icon persists to remain visible at all times....
Does anyone know how I could get rid of it? I've tried everything and I've grown desperate now.
Thanks all.

Turn off Cellular Data always active/On. That might be turned on in that same developer menu list.

This is drives me nuts!!! Connection status showed as H+ and very often suddenly internet dissapears!!! And it's not going to work again before I switch all phone to Aeroplan mode and back!!!
Today I thow my phone at a wall Hoping to break it to have a reason to buy a new one without this problem.
Anyone else?
What mobile provider do you have, and does it happen in more than one location so it's not just an unstable transmitter in your neighborhood?

Yes it happens when Im at home, probably with not so strong signal. What seems to be the the bug is that signal status in systembar shows that all is well with connection. But internet is absent. I use two sim, and it happens at all combinations of slots
Probably a solution to this will be a script that periodically check some online url and switch Aeroplan mode on/off if internet is absent.

Meaning what exactly? Just having the H+ symbol, or showing a bar or 2, does not mean much. I often will get a bar or reception showing on this phone when in remote locations, where there is no usable data signal. My wife's iPhone is the same way, shows that there is a phone and data signal, but no actual internet connection. The signal is present enough for the phone to see it, but not strong enough for any data to get through.
Go to phone Settings>About phone>Status>SIM status>Signal strength; and see what the actual dBM signal strength reads. This is much more reliable than any of the signal status indicators.
Thank you. Buut problem is that Android don't recognize that internet is lost before I switch to Aeroplan mode and back. I can wait for internet forever but as soon as I switched it connects immediately....
Really hate this piece if **** of a device!!!!!!!!
Do you still get this running on LineageOS 16? Can't say I've experienced this, running LOS and with keep mobile connection enable while on wifi-setting enabled in advanced development options menu.
Unless it's specific to your operator/mobile network. Have you checked your APN settings? Try deleting them and re-create from scratch.
