[Q] Wifi connection problem - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Im a noob on android device. i rooted my note 2 few days ago and flashed omega v11.And im using for few days.. but i relieased that sometimes even im connected to wifi, my internet stops like i had no connection. when i turn it off and on if fixes. So i thought maybe i had a problem with my wifi and i run speed test. and the result was like 2mbps down speed. But im very sure i was getting +15 mbps when i was using stock rom.
My main question : obviously rom / kernel affects wifi speed (i have no idea what kernel and rom changes does ) How can i fix this ? i wanna use omega and get like +10 mbps wifi speed. What would you offer ? i may change the rom or kernel if u suggest anything.
Alternate question : When i was reading omega rom description i had seen that there is a kernel inside that pack. So when i flashed omega my kernel also changed ? Anyway i thought that maybe rom did not killed my wifi, kernel did. So i installed redpill kernel 1.30. i tested again and i got 6mbps down speed this time. So was it a coinsidence or am i correct that kernel settings affect wifi speed? So which kernel i should use with omega if im right? can u suggest me please i dont want slow wifi connection in order to watch hd streams online?

I personally prefer wanamlite.
If you wanna try it I suggest use 2.5 for best battery life.
As for the problem install stock or some other rom with clean install

[Q] Custom Kernel Request

Could anyone possibly add higher frequencies lets say up to 902? And most importantly, could someone also fix wifi on this kernel? I can almost guarantee that this would be the absolute best kernel available if all of this was done. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970543&page=68
The Kernel is Drowningkernel 8-9-1
Quick question: Would this work on the Slide?
Yes this already works on the slide. Just install thru clockworkmod recovery. its a very high performance kernel, the only problems are wifi and frequencies could be higher

Ok, that's wats up, thanks

I wonder. Setting such high frecuencies, wouldn't risk your cpu phone to get toasted???
Also, wouldn't it cause much more battery usage?
Br,
Zedd
I'm running drowning kernel 7 and I'm stable at 902, and I get a few reboots at 921 mhz. And for battery life, the smartass governer takes care of that, my phone lasts all day.

I was wondering why is it that when ever i install a new kernel with cm7, I can't connect or mount my usb to my computer?
Hmm that's strange I don't think I've ever ran into a problem like that. Not sure if I can help much with that but what I would suggest is, do a completely clean install of cm7 and then install the kernel or you could start a thread in the q&a section and maybe someone with more knoledge than me on that problem could help.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using Tapatalk
Yeah, I've tried drowningchild's .35 kernel and it's very smooth. But wifi isn't working at all with it. I remember his previous kernels were fully functional. I wish someone could make that .35 kernel for CM7
Maybe someone could modify drowningchild's 2.6.35.x CM Aria kernel so wifi would work?

[Q] Wifi iussi even with wifix

Hello guys
I´ve got 2 Questions:
1. When I installed originell ICS on my phone it was not as responsible like it was on Gingerbread and the WIFI was really bad. I tried it with das wifix-app but it didn´t helped. So I went back to gingerbread (TEAM Rom/Doom Kernel version 18/and some Mods) and everything is working perfectly). So why is my wifi so bad on ICS?
2. Do I have to stay on GB or will it be soon possible to have good wifi on my xperia arc s?

i will make every thing clear for you
1- i tried the official ics and same thing happens with me + poor battery life it's all about the proper baseband and kernel you can try ics custom roms you will find the right baseband and kernel included.
2- my advice is stick with GB VERY GOOD performance and battery life & as i tried every rom here i recommend you this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565990
read it carefully and know what you are doing and you will have everything perfect
All right
I will try it out and will give a Feedback

It´s okay
Ok the rom is fast, stable and runs fluid, but the battery life is bad for me
EDIT: Alright with baseband 70 and doomkernel 18 it´s great
Thanks
You should try new ICS roms, especially Arconium 2.4. Since this last update, the rom seems a LOT more smoother, just like Gingerbread, and I'm having one day and a half for battery with intensive gameplaying (I'm Fruit Ninja addicted) and a few hours with Wi-Fi. And my Wi-Fi connection is great by the way. I'm on 70bb, DooMKernel v04, with SetCPU controlling my clock speeds when screen's off.

[Xperia Arc]FXP 127 WLAN problem

Hey
Since I got the FreeXperia Project ROM 127 and the Kernel, i got one Problem after a nother.
For now it is the W-LAN. It probably connects to my router but dont load anything.
Now i found on the official FreeXperia Project page in change log version 128 but on their page aren't any downloads and i can't find another one.
got you a source for 128 or a Wlan fix for 127 ?
if there is no fix or a 1.000.000 % working ROM of FXP, can you advice me a better, really working ROM ?
??
What do you mean probably connects? can't I check ?
If u looked a bit u'd know 128 ain't been released yet.
WiFi should work just fine for me in127 and as far as I know aside from occasional disconnects ours not an issue
It connects to my wifi Router but there is No data stream, there is no Download Or upload. BUT it is connected i dont get this issue with any other wlan device
Gesendet von meinem Xperia Archiv S FXP127 CM9 mittels XDA App
I'm guessing you already tried wiping all and fishing anew?
also may wanna try setting up static IP or deleting WiFi/hdcp
for others Re following this thread i have to say that i given up with this rom dont trying it anymore, im switched to JJ's hybrid rom. its much better than fxp.
bravia engine supportet, hdmi supportet, xloud, sony smart extras supportet but all on pure nexus AOSP experience!
but the biggest benefit is the battery life. with this cm9 trash my battery was emty after only 4 hours, i mean completle empty. now with jjs it does a hole day by power using the phone !!! only a tipp from me:
switch to arcknight kernel 3.3 and jjs rom 3.1, best stuff for xperia who wants aosp feeling with full supportet sony features excluding trash apps like fun and more or stuff

I'm using CM 10 (a6), and have been using the stock kernel till yesterday.
Yesterday I flashed the faux123 6u kernel and so far i'm very impressed with it. Average use so far, browsing the web for 15min, reading a few articles through flipboard and replying to some texts, connected to wifi at home for 1 hr, 3g for the 40min trip to work and then wifi at work again.
so in the last 3 hrs i've used 15% battery.

I don't know if I have a godly Htc One X or I'm doing something differently, but I have mobile data on all day, WiFi on all day, listen to music/browse web etc etc on the stock ROM with the Stock Kernal and I NEVER use that much battery.
All day doing this and on average I still have a big enough battery bar to keep it green, I RARELY yellow,red battery bar.
What is so good with my battery?

Had a stock kernel but replaced it with something i got from the link.
Thinking of going back to stock sense rom, since i flashed the cm10 and kernel my battery drops like heck.. im lucky if i get a 5hour screen time. Im like always charging. Like i have a landline. Can some1 hook me up with a nice custom rom and kernel that saves batt like or close to the stock sense rom? Thanks guys
battery drain issue
Battery only lasts 7hrs help !
I flashed CM10 endeavoru unleashed over the weekend (most recent build) with its stock kernel (3.5.7 tripndroid) and my battery is horrendous.
I played 10 mins of angry birds, sent 1 or 2 emails, no wifi, gps on, 10 min of calls and its died in 7 hrs.
Im not a droid noob buts its my first custom rom on the htc one x tegra 3 (and first ever flash without soff for that matter), however I cant seem to flash a different kernel without getting a boot loop (followed many guids to the letter). I can rectify bricked phones etc but cant find a stable fully functioning rom.
2 things then
1 Need advice on clearing the battery issue - better kernel ? things to look for ?
2 Why do I keep getting boot loops after flashing known working kernels (bone question but need advice).

Link to [KERNEL] AGNI for T889 (t0lte), T889V (t0ltecan) and I317 (t0lteatt)

Hello Everyone,
This is only to share what I found after weeks of searching (after posting a question a kind gentleman referred me to it) that works with both the Canadian variant of the t0lte T889V and the T-Mobile version itself (t0lte: haven't tried it since I don't own the phone however it's stated in the posts that it works).
After trying it for a few weeks now it's very smooth, has a control environment that modifies OC, UV, GPU OC, etc with one click depending on profiles, etc.
Read on here ----------> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602053
All credits due to psndna88 for creating the kernel and flash at your own risk (as in, if you flash the kernel and anything happens psndna88 and myself are not responsible.)
Make sure to chose the correct version depending on your phone.
Cheers everyone and hope this helps!
Its been posted everywhere on the T889 Forums.

Thank you. I hadn't seen it though, and I was trying to find a kernel that would allow OC'ing with 4.4.2. I found others though and thought it may help anyone who would need it.
But thank you again!

From what I am reading, I understand that you tried this with T889V. But for sanity purposes and sake of completeness I want to ask the following:
The Agni kernel was flashed on T889V and in the last couple months you have had it, you have not noticed any glitches/issues?

Hi there,
Yes, I have flashed on my T889V a few months back, since I wanted a kernel that would allow me to OC a bit, use fast charge for USB since I don't have a wall plug always available to me etc. Over the past few months it has worked flawlessly, I haven't had any issues whatsoever. I find my phone runs much smoother that it did before, it charges way quicker and given I haven't OC'ed it to the max allowed, it never randomly reboots or anything. Given I have added a bunch of mod apps such as viper4android for sounds and others that use a lot of ressources, it works perfectly for me, I never have any lags. I don't know if there is anything specific u would like me to tell u about, if so please let me know and I will.
Cheers

Thanks for all the info. I do have a few more questions.
How is the battery life? The biggest issue I found with custom roms and stock kernel was that battery life was terrible. It would drop a percentage roughly every minute and a half the screen was on.
Which Rom are you using this kernel with?
Which recovery did you end up using? CWM, TWRP or Phillz?
Also, did you root the phone with CF-Autoroot or SuperUser?
I had issues with whatsapp when I rooted my phone (I could not download pictures, but could send them). Went back to stock as I use whatsapp a lot.
My pleasure! As for my set up, it's stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 running Agni kernel. The app it comes with allows for several customizations, both battery friendly and performance friendly, but what I use if the above stock overclocking and a little. The governor and I/O scheduler are part of settings that the creator of Agni has, which works very well for me. As for battery, it lasts pretty much all day.. I use the phone for about 3 to 4 hours of voice, read a lot with it and text/youtube/listening to podcasts/casting video etc, and it lasts all day long. I charge my phone nightly, and goes from the morning at 100% to night time (around 9pm) at about 35% - 40%. I use philz, and rooted the phone with philz after flashing the recovery through Odin; I've never used CF auto root. After rooting the phone, I installed superSU and my phone runs very very smoothly. I used (in the past) Omni on this phone, and it used to work perfectly.. I had issues with netflix and the gallery, so I stuck to it for a few months but got tired of AOSP and went back to Touchwiz.. I personally prefer it.
Hope it helps, cheers!

Thanks for that. Now I know the process I can try to get better results with a custom kernel.
Lastly, are you running your T889V on Videotron? If so, have you updated your phone with the new stock firmware (T889VVLUDNH2) from Samsung? The T889VVLUDNH2 appears to be a modem only update for T889V, but I can't be sure as I have not found any official change log by Samsung.
In any case, I was wondering if the update enabled any LTE bands (specifically LTE Band 4 - the AWS LTE Band) on the T889V. The update seems to coincide with the LTE network that Videotron launched last month (Sept 2014).
Are you getting LTE speeds on your T889V?

I have tried CM11 and Omni 4.4.4 roms and it appears that the phone loses:
1) its model number (no big deal),
2) carrier id just shows US (would be useful to have real operator for roaming),
3) and lastly, does not show the type of data network it is connected to. Just shows bars, no E, 3G etc. Also, it show LTE in network options, but not WCDMA/GSM, since the phone does not have LTE. I would like too see the network I am connected to.
Any help would be much appreciated.

The only think I can think of is that since you're no longer running TouchWIz but AOSP, the Kernel might have compatibility issues. From what I read before when I was using this phone as my daily driver, this kernel was meant for TW roms, but since CM and Omni are AOSP, I figure some things might not be compatible. If I'm not mistaken, the creator of the kernel has a version called pure AOSP rather than this version, which is pure stock.
Hope it helps!

Thanks. Is there a ROM/Kernel combination you would recommend as a daily driver for the T889v.
I would want the following:
1) Decent battery life compared to stock. On stock I lose about 2.5% an hour by just being on standby. And with use I lose about 1% every 2 mins of screen time (for example when reading news in chrome browser at lowest brightness.)
2) Is responsive. The stock rom is starting to become really laggy (despite me having uninstalled a lot of apps). I know a lot of the budget phones like the Moto G2, which have less ram be much more responsive.
3) It would be nice if it shows the type of data network I am connected to HSPA+, 3G, Edge etc
4) Lastly, would be nice if it actually displays the carrier I am connected to, instead of displaying US.
Also, would points 3 and 4 be resolved if I removed boot.img from the ROM package? I have read that somewhere, but was not an authoritative source and don't want to brick the phone. It is still my daily driver, and would like to avoid bricking it.
Well, as for past experiences, what I used to run on the phone when I was on AOSP was Omni.. I really liked the battery life, it run for about two days with regular browsing, email checking, phone using, texting, youtube video playing, etc. If you decide to flash Omni, what I would suggest would be to run the kernel that comes with it. Normally, the Rom will come with it's own kernel manager (I believe they either use PAC kernel, Linaro or a CM based kernel), but it will work fine. The only thing that drove me off of Omni was that there was an issue with Netflix, but there's a patch running around in the forums and also in the Xposed framework. As per the ROM showing either 4G or LTE of HDPA+, at the time we didn't have in LTE with the phone, but I could see HSPA+ just fine.
If I can recommend something, is to clean install whichever ROM u decide to flash, and use the minimal GAPPS. Also, when you restore your apps (if you use something like TiBu) never restore system apps, just user apps.
Let me know what you end up doing and how it works for you!
