Android Lollipop disconnects itself from the Wi-Fi connection


It will happen to you to connect to any public network in which then you could not navigate: weak or absent, approval request or other problems; maybe start a little 'came and you left alone, only to discover hours later that you were offline. Well, Lollipop Android 5.0 also caters to these problems by automatically switching from Wi-Fi to mobile network, if available, in case the first does not provide a useful connection.

It had not been noticed this detail in the test Android 5.0 being always remained on Wi-Fi reliable, but it appears that not only the system works, but also alerts the user in the status bar next to wireless icon or even the mobile network, if it were the latter to have problems.

Samsung has implemented a similar feature for some time in its interface. Maybe it's just a coincidence or maybe it's another symptom of the renewed partnership between the two companies.


Android Lollipop blocks requests sync all apps if there is an active data connection, preventing them from consuming unnecessary power with attempts that do not lead to nothing. The battery thanks you, and the user is notified in the status bar: what more do you want?
