The wifi icon won't show until I wake the phone, but will always receive notifications w/ data off and in sleep mode.
Maybe that's just how iOS 5.1 is suppose to be?
Same here. Battery saver.
You still get all your notifications on home Wi-Fi so no big deal.

My battery life goes wayyyyyy down because I am roaming trying to look for data service. Is there anyway to make it stay on wifi because for me at least it is not a battery saver it is a killer. I have tested cutting off data while at work and just staying on wifi and that makes it stay of wifi and battery life is amazing, so that proves to me atleast that this is an issue.
any thoughts?
bakerj417 said:Thanks for the reply.
Well I wish there was a option to change that feature, because at least in my case it is not helping to disconnect and go back to data. I was thinking it may be an issue because I believe it also happens on my home network when I am sitting almost beside the router. I will report back if I see it happening on my home network too.
thanks all!
