I am on Marshmallow 6.01 having a Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. Since I never use wifi, I have disabled it in Location and wifi settings. However, when I peruse through my battery history, it shows that my WIFI is on. I don't know if it is Marshmallow bug, eating into my battery .This trick has helped me resolve this issue.
~ I go to locations and put it on. I enable GPS only [ device ] and then quickly disable location.
~ Following this, I turn my phone into Airplane Mode and then disable it after a minute.
Thereafter, I see that WIFI is no longer reflected in my battery history.
Alternately, I have reset Network settings and rebooted my device. I don't know if this works or not.
So far I been able to resolve this issue using the above. Can someone let me know, why does wifi turn on by itself without any user intervention? Is it a Marshmallow bug which we have to endure ?
Can someone let me know a permanent solution for this.
