Tethering issue and unplugging from charger

I have 2 issues since installing the new firmware (.253)

1) I use the phone to tether too other devices and the tethering only lasts from 15 - 30 mins

2) When on charge and I receive a phone call, I tend to unplug from charger and walk about but when I do it disconnects the call

Is there a way to sort these issues or is anyone else having the same issues

Hi there,

1) Do you have the Stamina mode activated? If you do, this might be the issue. When having Stamina mode activated, the phone will turn off data when the screen is closed. Try deactivating it and it should work fine.

2) This one is new to me, haven't heard about it before. I'm using .253 myself and couldn't reproduce the error. Does this happen when you're charging via a wall socket or via USB to a computer (or both)?

What are your thoughts about this forum? Let us know by doing this short survey.

It is in stamina mode but when connected its normally well above the 30% cut off on mobile data. Also both when connected to pc and wall charger. Neither of these issues happened before updating to .253. I'm doing nothing different from what I did before the update

There is a power saving mode in tethering settings, this dictates how long tethering will last,  switch it to never turn off whilst tethering.
