Sony Xperia Z1 Wifi troubles (v. 14.4.A.0.157)

Anonymous
Not applicable

Yesterday I received a notification telling me that my Z1 had an update ready (this came as a surprise, considering I though Sony had dropped updates for this particular model), needless to say I updated my phone there and then, although I did do a little bit of research into the update to see what it included. (Hint: Not much.)

 

Since the update I've been have consistent trouble with my Wifi connection:

 

  1. Wifi turns off when the screen is off, despite my Wifi settings being set otherwise (i.e. Wifi always on).
  2. Wifi shuts down randomly when connected - often at night, so I don't catch it - and subsequently drains my Data.

I can't tell if there are other issues as yet, since this is the only one I have noticed thus far. These problems started the moment I updated, and none of my other app settings (such as Juice Defender Plus) have changed, so I see no reason why they would be a contributory factor.

 

Has anybody else been having similar issues at all?

After android 4.0 most of these "power save" apps cause more trouble than they're worth Imo.
