bluetooth/wifi interference - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't often use bluetooth but I don't ever recall having interference issues with WIFI until I got to CM7 and flashed the latest radio.
It's WIFI thats causing the issue, if I turn wifi off while I'm on a call the noise is gone.
Is my headset on the fritz, am I loosing my mind, or is this new with this radio version? Or all of the above.
Sidenote: Anyone know of an app that will automatically disable wifi while I'm on a BT call?
MT3GS, CM 7.0.2, Radio 7.9.35.10

hello good sir ok here it goes your running cm7 stable i see with the latest raido and that is great the problem is not with your phone more than likely could be but are you one of the unfortanate folks that has wifi connectivity issue ??? or does wifi work great for you as it does for me never had issues. the reason i ask is cm7 running the latest radio and latest everything lol is flawless however there is a licencing issue from google with android 2.3 cyanogenmod 7 with the wifi apk file meaning cm mod is using the wifi apk from 2.2 because there is no licence restrictions but for whatever reason on 2.3 they have that wifi apk file under licence for a one year period so that being said that may be the issue. or it could be your phone i have 3 mytouch slides mine wifes daughters and they all running cm7 stable clockworkmod and s-off and i have no issues with any i hope this helps and not just rambling good luck if need any additional info lmk thanks

No, that does make sense..
My wifi is a little whacky, but not nearly as bad as some folks describe. I've actually considered going back to CM6 a few times now.
My fiance has a MT3GS with CM6.11 and the older radio, I need to test my headset with that later.

[Q] EVO 4G - Bluetooth Killing WiFi!? Anyone else having this issue?

I have one of the 1st White EVO's from Sprint and ever since It's been Rooted and running various ROMs I've had this issue where Every time I get a call and use my BT-Headset, it kills my WiFi connection. If I use my Speaker phone option the WiFi stays on and works just fine. Roms I've tried and this issue persist: AVA-Froyo, Fresh Rom, Freak-E Froyo, and currently running MIUI. All have been the latest versions. I've update my Radios with the current Radio "Combo Zip" and still have this issue. I've tried various headsets from the $9.99 Cheapo's to my $99.99 Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and still have this issue. If there is something I'm missing or anyone else has had this issue with the EVO, please help or point me in the right direction. What's the point of having a phone that's supposed to multi task with Voice and Data if the built-in features are killing each other?
*!Update!*
======
I am now running the latest [EVO NonSense v3.4] ROM and it's all good. I've made several calls and my WiFi and 4G are working as they should. Plus my Bluetooth transmission is a 100 times clearer as well. I'm no expert, but my only conclusion is that it could be the Kernels.
Does anyone know if the [2.6.32.15-gof673ed [email protected] #10] will work with the above mentioned ROMs, particularly the latest MIUI?
Thanks in advance for any help and quick replies.
I posted about this a little while back, have the same problem
On call through my voyager pro wifi is intermittent. I don't think it kills it, only makes it so slow that almost everything times out. Almost randomly it goes in and out. Same with 4g as well
Edit: Not rooted

CyanogenMod-7 for Slide RC1 Help WIFI

Well I've asked in the normal thread no one answered. Searched and searched and no answers. I flashed RC1 to my slide and wifi goes like this connecting obtaining Ip address. disconnected. I watch the wifi symbol up top come on and go off like its actually turning off and on. I made sure sleep was never and set it to 14 channels with no differeence. I Wiped everything cashe data dvak still the same. i used clockwork and formated the data cashe and system folders and reinstalled and the same thing. If i go back to an haxspersso i connect and stay on Anyone else have this problem found the solution ?
Same here. It's not working for most of us. A few people claim it's working for them. I'm also having problems with GPS. The compass part works, but it can't find longitude and latitude.
Prepare to get torn up by people for posting in the dev section.
But address the issue, im guessing this is the first cm7 rom you've flashed. If you are the type to stay safe and only flash the stable or release candidates, then you probably dont know about the wifi issues cyanogenmod commonly has. I didnt stay on cm7 rc1 long enough to see if the wifi was broke, but its likely it is. Either wait for a stable release or try that cyanogenmod wifi fix thread i saw floating around in this dev section (though that might only apply to cm6).

Wifi and gps are working for me, I think its about half and half. You just hear about the people who have issues, not the people who don't. A select few slide owners have slightly varied hardware, makes developing for the phone a *****. If you need wifi, I would just go back to 6.1, it's your best bet.

I had this problem when flashing CM7 RC1 to both my partner's MT Slide and my MT4G.
Rebooting fixed it.
CM7 Nightly 19 only wifi working for 100%
I know I don't have 3G or EDGE soo wifi is only me
everything works on my phone...wifi,gps,bluetooth... have you flashed the new radio?
Everything works for me, but I have a question being that CM 7 has apps2sd installed how would one know what apps to put onto the sd card? And should I down the the app from market because it will alert you when you can move an app?
Thanks-
I've figured out what is going on. If i use a standard rom i can connect to my N router just perfect. I have my router set to g-n only i could not connect with CM7. i told my router it was ok to connect at 54 and it connected. got to be the drivers.

You're talking about froyo and up's built in apps2fat. It's not a cm7 feature, it's a built in google feature. It will automatically put some apps on the sd card, but you can move them in the manage applications settings menu.

What new radio is required and where it can be found?

First of all, go to settings>about phone, and check your baseband version. If it says 7.15 somewhere near the middle, you're good. If it says 7.09 or 7.08 or anything below 7.15, you need to update. Flash this. Or, here is Chiefz_Reloaded's direct download link.
Flash that radio update via clockwork recovery. Make sure that you have good enough battery to last you a good 5 or 10 minutes to be safe. I would say have at least a 15 or 20% charge when you flash this. If it dies in the middle, you're totally screwed, bricked phone. Basically, as long as your phone doesn't die or your battery doesn't somehow fall out, you'll be safe flashing it. Don't sweat it.
Again, you only need to do that if your baseband version has something other than 7.15 in the middle of the string.
My baseband version is 47.63.35.21U_7.15.35.16, perhaps qualify the requirement, but still I experience connection breaks on WiFi, I am on latest nightly CyanogenMod-7-02202011-NIGHTLY-Slide.

Some have issues with wifi, it's a result of the varying Slide mainboard hardware. It will probably be fixed in the final or next release candidate. A lot of people say the old build 19 worked for them, but the build #'s reset shortly after RC1 was released so I don't know where you would find it. Sorry
Bump. Mine was working for a while, but stopped. It actually was bumping off my wifi router at home and I had to reset it everytime I tried to connect the phone. It took me a while to figure out that it was the phone that was doing it. Weird.
well ummm its called update rc1 well lest see we have had like 10 nightlys and what are not on rc3 and nightly 74 wifi works on rc3 and all nightlys since so yea get with the times

Gee thanks for the polite tip. And gee, I hadn't thought of trying that. Or maybe I did and it's still broke. I flashed cm6.1 and it works. Again, thanks for the support.
There's a post floating around regarding a file from 6.1 flashed onto cm 7, but I fixed my issues by making my router only send out b and g signal even if it is n capable. Good luck

Ginger Villain and WiFi

I have been on Ginger Villain 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 and i have had this problem.
When the wifi is connected, i would say once every five minutes it disconects and re-connects again. Even though this process takes a few seconds, it is very annoying when im on skype as it terminates the call.
I have set the wifi sleep policy to never. I have never had this problem on stock, modaco, and Robo HD roms.
One thing to note, i originally thought this was a gingerbread 2.3 problem. Too see if was true, i flashed the new modaco 2.3 rom and it was fine. I was using skype and other apps for over an hour and it did not disconnect.
So why is this happening in ginger villain?
One thing to note.
I live in a flat and therefore the wifi signal has always been quite low BUT it has always connected without any problems.
Could it be that GV 2.3 decreases wifi signal strength?
I have flashed the latest radio and ril which seems to have fixed it.
But now I am getting graphical issues as the screen is flashing and acting very weird on certain apps.
Anyone got any ideas?
I'm currently on 1.3 GV and have the same issue with the Wifi, about to try a different Kernel to see if it helps.
I've also noticed a decreased signal, I can be standing right next to my router and not receiving absolute full signal... Think it may be a ROM issue?
You have to remember these ROMs ain't perfect and each one seems to have it's flaws, but the dev's are getting there!
What kernel will you try?
Strange. I have no problem with wi-fi. Signal as well as on the stock rom. In the router logs no disconnects.
Kernel: 1.6 HAVS 1113Mhz + BFS from Villain setup
Radio: 32.44.00.32H_5.09.05.30_2
It is very strange, I have tried different radio's but still can't fix it.
Under normal internet use, it is quite difficult to tell that the connection has dis connected and reconnected as it only takes a few.seconds.
When using Skype or Google talk, you can tell and its very annoying.

Did you manage to fix this with a different kernel?
I am so glad I have finally found someone with the same issue as me! I have a relatively weak wifi signal (distance) from my hub to my room where I use my desire. On apps like youtube or bbc iplayer, it would suddenly turn off wifi and then reconnect all of a sudden. It meant watching anything with these apps is a nightmare. And I have always had it set to wifi sleep - never. I have never had this problem with any other ROM and I have tried loads. I originally put it down to my already tempermental internet, but I have now ruled this out. This is specifically a GV ROM issue.
GV 1.0 - 1.4 all had the same issue. Then, yesterday much to my surprise I saw in the 1.5 change log that one of the changes was that 1.5 "should fix the wifi sleep bug".
Last night, I tried iPlayer as usual, but I believe the problem still persists. I now don't know what to do. I will try resetting the wifi hub to defaults and so on, but I really don't think it will make a difference. I could try flashing a new kernal, but again I don't see how it would make a difference. Then I thought maybe a new radio, but I don't see the need. I'm using the latest official desire radio, and it works flawlessly on everything else.
So, I'm out of ideas, and my patience is slowly dying. I love the ROM for all its worth. It works perfectly, except for this. But for me, stable wifi is a deal breaker. I might need to try something else like amethyst.
Yes, sounds exactly like my problem. There Is a problem with Ginger villain as it works fine on other Roms.
I have tried so many different kernel's, radios and ril's but to no luck.
The only last solution I can think of other than to change rom is to try the modaco kernel. But the problem with that is, its not available seperately so we need someone to extract it from the rom.
I've got a strange issue with my HTC Desire and GV 2.5 :
at home, it doesn't even detect my Wifi (others devices do, of course), while at work it works perfectly.
The security is the same (WPA2/AES) between work and home, so I don't see any explanation... do you think it can be caused by the channel used ?

For all those with WiFi data issues with 2.3.3

I have just spent an absolute age with HTC tech support, and the answer to the few that have been suffering with no data via wifi is................send your handset in for repair.
I honestly have completely lost the will to live, no matter what i say to try and convince them the issue is software related as i can use 2.2.1 absolutely fine, it seems to completely be over everyones head, i even spoke to a manager, who after listening to everything i said, who then spent 3 minutes in silence came back with "broken wifi module"
Arghh, they now want to book my handset in for repair, which i am reluctant to do as they quote a turn around of 20 days currently, i dont want to be without a handset that long.
all i want is gingerbread on my handset and be able to use WiFi, 3G works perfectly
Has anyone had any luck in solving this? its not a router issue, i have tried 4 different routers, its not a signal issue (i have a full signal, and its not dropping the signal), i have tried every 2.3.3 custom rom and stock rom out there and still no data Via WiFi, tried different radio's, and different kernels,
If i go back to using the Android revolution 2.3.2 beta, it works fine, so its defo since the 2.3.3 update.
any help from anyone would be so gratefully recieved i will buy you a pint!
Hi there,
Have you flashed the matching RIL's for your radios? A similar issue affected me but it was only with CM7 and ARHD. I flashed the radio in my signature (good WiFi performance for signal and battery life) and the corresponding RIL and all was working after a couple of reboots.
Hope this helps.
i have indeed pal, really really struggling with this.
A work colleague has just completed his OTA update at work, same issue,
at least i know its not just mine
im wondering if its something to do with the wifi driver in the ota,
Actually its not just the ota, tried the RUU just now, same issue
any Dev's got any clues?
Mate,
I´ve downgraded the ROM as per this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003), and now it is working perfectly. No need of gingerbread, I noticed that I do not need it anyway. Instead of that, my baby is alive and kicking againg.
Cheers.

im back on LeeDroid 2.2.1 custom rom and everything works like a charm, there isnt anything on gingerbread i need, but i want the option, i prefare the menu, but i can not be without WiFi. I have just sent HTC a humerous letter/email, i have spent hours on the phone with them today.
Sent LeeDroid a pm, see if he has any idea why this is, or if there is anyway to sort it
hopefully someone soon can come up with something, there are only a few of us with the problems, but even so HTC should release a patch or something to rectify it. A guy who has a T-Mobile branded device at work has updated fine, but myself and another colleague (both unlocked sim free devices from the carphonewarehouse) have the no data issue via wifi
i am losing the will to live

Slight issues with CM9/ICS

Hi guys,
I rooted and flashed CM7.2 a few weeks ago, and I was hooked so last weekend I flashed CM9 RC1 and this morning I flashed CM9 RC2.
Two issues I'm having: Adaway worked perfectly on CM7.2 whether I was using wifi or mobile data. Now, it only works with wifi in CM9. I get that it's not supposed to work as well with connections like 3G but is there a way to get the perfect track record back that it had in CM7.2? I've checked the log for suspicious DNS requests and there's nothing showing up other than google and my carrier.
Also, Fast for Facebook http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1581371&highlight=fast+facebook only works now when I have a wifi connection
Are these two issues radio related (I'm a noob, so I have no idea) now that I've upgraded to ICS? My radio as it reads in the bootloader is 26.03.02.26_M (I'm with Bell). Should I be looking at the .19 radio I've seen people mention?
Thanks!
