[Q] wifi,kernel and radio - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

hello ,
i am new to this section , i bought the Gnex tow days ago , it was shipped with a latest stock 4.3 jb ... i rooted it and installed the nice liquid smooth rom .
i noticed since i had the stock rom that wireless reception was not good , the signal was not that great and used to disconnect , ok , the wireless router is far away and separated by many walls ... i used to get 1 bar connection using my old Desire HD mobile phone , and it could kept connected most of the time , but with my new Gnex i barely get connection and when i do it disconnects quickly , although it performs very well when i am near the wireless router ..... so my question is :
1- is it a general issue in all android versions of the Gnex ? if not what is the best one ?
2- is there any recommended radio to be installed for the SL custom rom and for a result i can get a better wifi reception ?
3- another question please , i couldn't find the smartass2 governor in the settings-performance , is there a recommended kernel for this rom which supports this governor ?
thanks in advance

what is the best radio for wireless reception ?

[Q] weak or no 3g

iv been on CM 7 or using Decks version of CM 7 also tried 7.1
using the stock CM kernel or salvage zen
using the newest radio pri prl .. etc
i have been getting 1 bar 3g but more often now i have been seeing a lot of 1x signal .. the other three phones in my house are all EVO's and seen to have an alright signal (note mine is the only rooted one)
is there anything i can do to get a better 3g signal ... 4g works just fine
im going to attempt to flash to a sense rom to update the profile to see if that helps .. is there any way to update the profile on the CM rom as well?
i had the same problems a few days ago so i unrooted brought into sprint they flashed new software and claimed i had to get a new phone. when i got home 4g and 3g worked despite what they said. you could try that if your desperate.
i did unroot the device and bring it to sprint .. the CSR there udateed all software and the 3g worked .. brought it home rooted it again .. still worked ... i flashed to the CM7.1 rom now its usually on 1x and randomy gets 3g .. Seems like its happening on CM7 - CM7.1 and the last 2 Deck roms .. all of which are Senseless roms .. radio is all up to date and all .. any other ideas??
i hope you did a nandroid back as soon as you got into recovery before flashing cm7. cause if not you may end up with the same problem again, having to bring it in.
i think ill be alright once i solve this
good luck then

[Q] 3g radio issues on one V

Hi All,
Long time user, first time poster...I have a HTC one V which has always had issues with 3g networks. Sometimes it works perfectly and sometimes it just says error searching. If i leave it on 2G only it seems to be ok.
Anyway I finally rooted it and installed CM10 from here hoping the new sw and kernal would fix, but still same issue.
Is there a radio update I can do on One V or do I just need to consign this to the bin....as 2G only is a pain..
My lovely Nexus one (CM7) has had one too many knocks...hence I had to start using this recently, it was my unused official work phone owned from new and pretty much never used
you have tested with rom miui??
news???

LU6200 Bad WIFI connections

hello everybody , i bought 2 second hand lu6200 phones here in vietnam but their wifi signal handling is awful , i can connect to wifi networks with an old phone and the
lu6200 just doesn't pick up the network, i installed an app to measure the db's and in the lu6200 it gets always at least more 6 to 10 db's ,
first i thought that it was something wrong with the hardware but i switched phones in the store and have the same problem .-( ,
now i just don't know what to do , it's weird that a phone like this one has such a bad wifi .... , i have tested a lot of roms also and
wifi always hard to connect with weak signals.... anyone knows something about this?????
thanks.

I don't think that this phone has bad wifi strength as I have always the same signal strength as that on my friends' Note 1 and BB Z10 or other devices.

thank you for your input , well i find it weird that it's so hard for me to get a connection , i woudn't expect it from a device such as this... ,
i went to the store and they exchanged it to another one and the wifi still not working properly, but still they are second hand phones .... , maybe this one has some hardware problem too , it picks up wifi only after it stays some time in the same location .... , i got it for 100 dollars so it's not a big loss ,
maybe i will open it and try to check the wifi antenna or something .

If its picking up signal late, then its due to to long wifi scan interval. Just go to settings>network>wifi and refresh from there whenever you want to connect.

yes , i tried that , i installed some apk that would scan it faster and makes a graph of the router signal but always the same result , if i don't move too much and wait for a while it will connect but the signal is going up and down and it disconnects , and connect a few moments later ,
while my other phone stays around 80 something db's , this one shows 90 something that is on the limit for the connection

Well that's weird. Maybe a faulty unit. Nothing more to say.

3g problems on custom roms

HI!
I have an Xperia S and 3 weeks ago made my first flash with custom rom (first Trinity Vengeance RaptorXL™ HD^2 4.1 and later Honami Style V3.x - both great roms and I was very satisfied with both rooms (specially the battery drain), but on both rooms I had the same error: 3G signal dropped many times... Was impossible try to view youtube videos or use Ingress game because the signal dropped each 2-3 minutes!! and on my phone bill, its appear a charge by "International Roaming" but I stay on my state all time, only traveled over some cities... the APN was correct (manual and auto addeded)
Such was my desperation that I had to return to the oficial room .96 and the 3g issue disappears... but without all great benefits of the custom rooms.:crying:
Someone will know where could be the problem? its repairable?
Additional info: I'm in México, could be the problem the room config. on type of 3g connection?
Thanks to all!
Any idea about this issue? How solve it? :crying:
