| Dec 15, 2015 at 22:43 | comment | added | hulkingtickets | Oh sure. I used the firewall, afwall+ ,turned it on( and used whitelist - blocking everything ) , turned logging on. made phone sleep. Than turned it on - and on the firewall log - i've seen the sources of traffic - all pointing to google, which i can live with. | |

I'd start checking the logs. Some firewall app with logging functionality might also help. As it happens even with WiFi off (the app obviously re-enabling WiFi), you can narrow down candidates using a Permission Checker, concentrating on those with the CHANGE_WIFI_STATE permission.
