Is anyone getting WiFi disconnects? Sprint GN. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I have been getting them with codename , cm10, and black bean? I wonder if its with the new binaries or kernels.

Keep WiFi on with screen off.
Does that help?

Okay I do get that but there are times it doesn't stay either. Also turning off wifi or on the button freezes. Funny ****. :what:

[CDMA - Sprint & Verizon]How many times you have replace your Galaxy Nexus ?

Ok so I just got my Sprint Galaxy Nexus 3 days ago and this is my second unit about to be my third one.
Issues :
- Media Sound / Alarm (After using headphones with the phone my media sound stop working for some reason and I have to reset it in other to get it working again. This is a known issue from all the LTE Variants, idk about the GSM version.)
- Screen Lines (This issue only kills me when I'm looking at pictures or looking at the lockscreen you see like different colors it bothers me so much.)
Tell me about YOUR Galaxy Nexus.

Switching Phones

I love aosp/aokp. But I decided to order the new sprint evo lte.
I love the gnex. Its 1 of my favorite phones. Now with the announcement of jb and all this crazy development, I'm sad to see it go.
Anyone have a similar situation going on?

No.
Best of luck to you and your EVO LTE.
To see it go where ?

Androind Beam

So a coworker just got the galaxy nexus phone and we tried yseing the android beam feature. Almost every time we use it it fails to send the pictures I try sending him. I have sbeam off on my phone and everything else that should be on is on, on both our phones but still no success. Any ideas? Thanks.

Oh I can get the picture to start sending but it fails on the Nexus.

I don't think sbeam will work unless it's another Samsung phone that's not nexus. It has to be a touchwiz model.

Wi-Fi Range and battery life week

Hello my friends
I have a Galaxy Nexus phone runs on Android 4.2 Is there a way to increase the strength of the wireless network?
And also is there a way to increase the battery life? Is there a way to detect the health of the battery (Is it time to replace or weakened)?
Thank you

I use an app greenify and it increases battery life immensely
Sent from my GT-i9100 using xda app-developers app
There s no way to increase range of wireless, you can try ak kernel that have better WiFi driver but nothing exceptional. ..
Battery life is related to use, IMHO use app like stamina mode or greenfy is stupid for simple reason: disable data or wireless and force sync is not fix, IMHO don't increase battery life, the only fix is set notification timeout to 1-2 hours and remove stupid app:]

Open up your phone, solder a 6dBi antenna to the wifi antenna.
I like to use Tasker. When my screen is off turn wifi off, wait a minute after the screen has been on to turn back wifi.

Why would you use tasker to do this when this functionality is built into the Os?

Is WiFi really this bad?

Hey all. I'm temporarily using a galaxy nexus (man, I missed this device) but I've noticed some real flaky WiFi behavior. It constantly disconnects and reconnects. Not to mention the range ain't that great. Don't get me wrong--i know what a special device this is, I'm just wondering if b/c maybe its a few years old this is simply as good as it gets with the WiFi radio it has. I've been using the galaxy s4 for a bit but I just sold it and am waiting for the note 3. This nexus is my "back up" device.
Thanks.

WiFi isn't related to the radio. Its controlled by the kernel. And for the record my WiFi works fine.
PS- I am also looking forward to buying the note 3 :beer:

I'm running paranoid android on 4.2.2. Can u recommend a good kernel for better WiFi performance? After a bit more testing yesterday I realize that the range is really the issue. If I'm close enough to my router I have no problems. But with my other phones I don't have this issue anywhere in my house. On this nexus tho, if I'm in my spare bedroom the WiFi goes in and out constantly.
Thanks again.

Try fancy
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4
are you using 5ghz oder 2.4ghz wifi?
the range on 5ghz is really bad, but on 2.4ghz it has a average range compared to other phones.

I have it set to auto. Should I switch to 2.4?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
give it a try, check if your router uses the 5ghz band.
my router is capable of 2.4 and 5ghz using the same ssid for both.
always had the problem that my phone connected to the 5ghz and lost connection to wifi through 2 walls.
after setting it to 2.4ghz only it got better.

Thanks man. I'll give it a shot. I'm also gonna try that fancy kernel. Any other good kernels you've tried?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
big fan of stock image with stock kernel, especially since the 4.3 update.
i did not expierience a increase of wifi range with custom kernels, maybe a little bit more throughput.
but if you want to try a custom kernel its up to franco-kernel.

Go to your wifi settings and go to advanced. If avoid poor connections is checked then uncheck it

No release is bug free for me it fixed some anoying bugs like the data drops without bringing new ones.
And i have the impression it gave the gnex an other speed bump.
