I didn't find anything about this specifically for the Vivid, so thought I'd ask. I prefer to turn WiFi off and use my data for access. I've gone to Settings and slide the selector to off...WiFi goes off. But then later when turning the phone on, I notice WiFi is back on.
Turned phone on mid afternoon yesterday...WiFi should have been off but didn't check, power at 100%. Early yesterday evening, I rechecked and the WiFi was on...power had drained to 93% so I turned WiFi off. Phone was in sleep mode all night long. Checked again in the AM...WiFi is on and power is at 83%...turned WiFi off. Just now, 90 minutes later, WiFi was back on with power down to 81%.
Why does WiFi turn itself back on? Stock phone...no special apps.
