Keep wifi alive
 

Is there a way to keep the wifi active even if the screen goes to standby? Whenever I hit the power button or leave the phone idle the wifi cuts out. I know its to spare battery life but is there a way to keep it on the whole time?

Change your settings to not blank the screen, only dim it?

And or plug your phone to the wall... should not shut off while on external power. Or that may be a setting you have to choose. Rainfreak is no the right track.

It can be don via reg edit. I believe the process in the TP2 Tweaks sticky.

I have yet to use this great feature. However I feel... again... I feel that preventing the phone from going into sleep mode while plugged in makes the most sense to ME. That way if I am sharing my wifi and I am plugged in, my phone won't sleep. However if I change the settings and make my phone dim and not sleep... I have to change those settings every time I share wifi. Also If I do a reg edit and make those changes then it would seem that you have to make a reg edit to reverse those changes once I am done sharing wifi. Just my opinion though. I love that we can all do what we feel works best for us.

I would like to know this as well. I was trying to stream a Clear Channel radio station in Kinoma Play via wifi since I had no 3G coverage where I was at. The wifi kept dropping though when the screen went to sleep.
This would be nice to have wifi stay on when certain programs are running.
Is there a regedit we can do to solve this?

Maybe a script could do that? I have never used them before though.

krnfrk6663 was right, it was posted here in the Touch Pro 2 Tweaks, Hacks, Tips & Modifications sticky...

However, I think it was proven not to work 100%. I remember trying to do this myself but my wifi would cycle every time my phone switched off!

Guys - just use Don't Sleep Wifi!

Great for VoIP via wifi

just use HDTweak found here:

there is a setting in there that enables the wifi to stay alive when the device is in standby.

I can confirm this working as i have my TP2 in standby with the wifi on and twikini running in the background, twikini is chirping away whenever i get a new tweet.
