Let me just get this out first... I understand that it is a feature of Windows Phone 7 to turn off the WiFi radio when locked/sleeping, and I understand that this is an aggravation for those without data plans.
What I would like to know is, which applications can I run in the background to prevent this from happening? From what I am aware of, many users have reported that running the Spotify app in the background prevents the WiFi from disconnecting while sleeping, but I live in a Canada, where this app is not available to me. Which other apps can I use that will allow me to keep my WiFi enabled?
PS: I have tried TuneIn, Last.fm, and a few others that stated they could run under a locked screen, but the WiFi connection only remained connected when music was actually playing. I have also tried to disable my data connection, but this has not solved my issue and I would like to stay conneceted because send & recieve a lot of MMS messages.
Sorry for the essay!
