Hi Folks. I've been reading about the reports about radio issues on the Bionic, but nothing really matched this behavior I'm seeing. Thought I'd see if anyone else was having this issue. (if this should be added to the existing radio thread, that's fine, but that seems to be more around 3G/4G)
What's going on is that the phone doesn't auto connect to an access point when in range if the screen is locked. For example, I'll be on WiFi at home, and leave for work. I've already set up the AP for the office on the phone, but here it is 1:30pm and it hadn't connected to it yet. I unlocked the phone and it took about 30-40 secs and then finally connected. It'll generally stay connected until I leave, and then won't connect at home until I unlock the screen there.
What's puzzling is that my previous phone (Incredible) would connect on it's own when it found an AP it knew.
I never lose 4G though, so it's just the WiFi that's behaving this way. Is this just a difference in brands, or might there be an issue? It's done this ever since I bought it last week.
Anyone else seeing this?
