downloads/updates

[ymranersx2]

i have a droid 2 with android version 2.3.3.  When i try to either download an app from the android market or simply update an installed app, the download pauses stating that it is waiting for Wi-Fi.  This just started after loading a new version of  android software.

I believe there is a option under Settings / Wireless and Networks that can only allow apps to connect background data request through a wifi connection, I dont know the exact directory but check the directory in the location I noted and see if you can locate it and make sure its not checked.

Sorry, couldn't find the control you were talking about, did not see anything under Settings/Wireless and network settings.

I believe what Wildman was referring to is: Menu > Settings > Battery & data manager > Data saver.  If Data Saver is checked then downloads will wait for WiFi.

looks like that worked, soon as i unchecked the box, downloads started flowing.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH
