Router crashing with new Jelly Time rom

Hey guys,
I tried searching and could not find a similar problem.
Since getting the new rom I have noticed that my wireless router has been experiencing connection issues. all my devices show connectivity but i dont have access to the net. Anyways i decided to have a look and the android is creating multiple Ip entries on the router with the same mac address and everytime I turn the wifi off on my phone the problem does not occur.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have you tried going into development settings and turning of Android Debugging or ADB over network? Just a suggestion, not sure if it will work.

nah cant be that, I had them turned off already.
Thanks for replying anyway. I searched google and its a pretty common problem with no concrete solution, might need to flash the rom again.

Why don't you try binding the MAC Address to a static IP so it's no longer able to create multiple entries on the DHCP Table?

tjturko13 - have you tested to use another standard 802.11 Modus - instead "n"? Just switch it at your phone or router.
What router do you have? Can you update the firmware? ^^

i dont think my router allows this, the only option I have is to specify if I want to allow mac filtering.

Have checked out my last post about the wlan-standard?
I found also another thread about a member with wifi problems after updating his rom. He didnt flash the new boot.img - but dont know if it was the solution.

thanks ill check out that thread,
at the moment my router is set to just g
its a isp provided cablel router that does not let me mess around with FW but i have checked and it seems to have the latest FW

where do i get the boot.img file from?

Did you get your new rom over the air? (Stock rom)
Or did you flash a custom rom?
You have to give us more software informations about your rom. Is your device s-on or s-off?
Stock rom you need the right RUU exe file. Just doubleclick - yes yes yes
Custom rom you need to download the custom boot.img.

and have also flashed the kernel zip file in the jelly time rom thread

Ow, okay =)
so do you have this rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778202
There is an update available. I saw another post of an user with wifi-problems. He flashed the update and the problems were solved.
I've also noticed, that the wifi might have some problems with some channels as you can see here:
Broken:
bluetooth - works in beta 7. Broken in beta 8 +
Working:
Wifi Tethering
camera - not perfect still buggy
Mic
accelerometer
audio
bluetooth
wifi - may not support some channels
hw acceleration
buttons

I'm sorry for you.
- You could even try to change the wifi-channel to 1, 4 or 6 and disable wifi-security in the second attempt for test only.
- Try also to set a static ip in your phone (for your wlan).
- If you are bored you can reset the whole router to its factory defaults and leave all standard. Just enable wlan (and the isp connection) - but dont change the default ssid, wlan-security or channel etc.
Otherwise I have no more ideas.
With google you can find dozens of users crashing their routers with android or ios phones . Good luck dude!

Ive had this problem to since switching to 'randomblame's kernel based ROMS (jellytime CM, jellytime aokp and jellytime by PACMAN - Paranoid, CM and AOKP).
Apparently it is a kernel issue and the only thing you can do is some of the things above or here
I was here hoping there might be a fix... I tried static IP, changing the router channel, WIFI never sleep etc etc etc.
The only workaround I found so far was to turn off wifi when Im done, it only seems to break when the phone is inactive for 5 minutes +.

Exact same problem here. It took some time before I figured out that my phone was overwriting my gateway's MAC address, but I finally saw that message from another machine in my network:
Code:
arp info overwritten for 192.168.1.254 by 91:31:58:5d:e8:34
1.254 being my gateway's IP. I also tried giving my phone a static DHCP entry but it just didn't change anything. Any useful sysctl maybe ?

FWIW, it seems I "fixed" that issue by making my routers MAC address association permanent on my (manageable) switch. That obviously don't fix the real problem, but does not shut down the router's NIC. FYI, on a GNU/Linux machine, this is done with the arp command, i.e.:
Code:
# arp -s 192.168.1.254 00:ca:fe:ba:be:00
192.168.1.254 being your router's IP
HTH

Really wierd....but i know the solution....get it rooted and install iron rom. Then you can go into synopse, network and then make wifi mode the same for in standby as it is when awake....worked for me.....good luck m8

That's actually my SkyHigh kernel and nothing to do with custom ROM. Just root, flash CWM or TWRP recovery, flash the kernel and install synapse.
OP,
Have you tried to upgrade your firmware to a newer release? Search sammobile and manually flash with Odin.

Weird.
I take it you have no other battery saving/power saving apps installed? e.g Juice Defender (I'm guessing not if you're not rooted).
There must be something else affecting it if it's not the wifi sleep settings.
I presume you're not using smart network switching either?

I new it was your kernal that allows you to do this not the rom, just thought it would be good to give the op a solution to give the bloke a solution resulting in not only having a kernal thats mint by the way that gives him control of this function but also a much better touchwiz rom in the process....wasnt trying to discredit you m8 sorry if it appeared that way....love the work by the way m8 without people like yourself us lot would be stuck with the rubbish preset settings that arnt changable and none negotiable.

[Q] Wifi Issue on Canadian SM-N900W8 with New official Lollipop..help

I updated to official Lollipop rom on Canadian Note 3 (SM-N900W8) and hit with big WiFi issue. I searched xda and couldn't find the solution. How can I say, Phone don't remember my WiFi after I reboot phone. I have to re-select the WiFi, re-input password and it connects fine. But next reboot, It won't even remember the WiFi i connected to and have to redo all steps again. Anyone with same issue..pleas help.

So I'm actually a little bit curious, what official n900w8 rom are you talking about. I've been looking for one for some time now and nothing. Please link if you can.
With regards to the WiFi. I have heard of this before. People with S5 have reported almost similar issues and solution was a script edit.
There has been ports of the new N900t lollipop rom that after a proper kernel "lean kernel" and a S5 WiFi fix. All this has worked on the n900w8 however video recording and nfc don't work.
I'm really curious as to what your set up is.
I went back to 4.4 because I use nfc so much and video recording is a must.
Thanls so much
VOLTS

Lollipop released for Canadian Note 3 SM-N900W8. Telus, Bell and virgin mobile release 5.0 two days back. See link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N900W8/

Have you fixed this?
I have the same problem. I tried editing the build.prop file as suggested on some posts for the 900T but it seems that my phone is not detecting root correctly, so even editing the file reverts when power cycling the phone

Fix Wifi
Edit build.prop ro.securestorage.support and ro.securestorage.knox from true to false. If they are already false change to true and then back to false. Reboot.
You must fix your root issue first, before you can apply this fix...
Good luck

Thanks. I went back to custom rom with custom kernel on sm-n900w8. I will try once flash official rom. NFC not working in Custom rom.

I have the rom installed in my N900W8 and at first I was suffering from the WiFi password not saving. However after a few complete wipes both in twrm and in the data wipe service menu.
Now with 5.0 and with lean kernel my passwords save.
So there is a way for it to save and mine works.

Actually I am using your vision international ROM, works great. I flashed official rom but was too bloated and slow and video recording was not working. Your rom is awesome and fast and already debloted. Only thing not working is NFC which I don't use anyway. Great work..keep it up.

[Q] disappeared LTE all firmware

What is done:
first I flash 30B bump, the problems starte. then flash 30B LGUp, flash 21a and 21c, change band in ingeneering menu, delete lteconfig, flash 30b bump with modems: 21a, 21c, 30b hybrid, change of operator, manual config APN, manual search network. All this does not help.
Any ideas?

no ideas?

Idem.
But after reboot 4G is ok, but again...every morning i lost signal 4G...only 2G/3G is ok. So..reboot & 4G is up......disappointed.

Same on my G3. I downgrade from MM to LP but problem persist.

Same here....tried rollback to kitkat stock, LP stock, CM12, Cm13, and some other roms with no luck....have just flashed stock LP for repair...

so today I tried swapping my SIM with my friend's
he is using G3 with stock 21A, and his SIM is of the same carrier as mine
after swapping, I found that my phone (and of course his phone, too) is working normally
my phone is normal even after swapping back
did some different tests like switching on and off with 3G, LTE etc., everything is normal, at least at this moment

Still working with you? So it is sim card fault? With me after searching networks everything seems to be ok, but I couldn't connect with LTE. Only sometimes successfull connection.(once a day and after reboot same...) Very strange. :/

I lost network signal randomly... i tried with 30b hybrid modem, 21a, 21c... kdz method, twrp bumped rom... and doesnt help me at all.. my network signal gets a rotating circle randomly... and in that time my phone is out of coverage... it is .... hundred times in a day... i dont know what to do, please help

same here when i use sucks 30b D855, but now everything is ok with me.
Steps that have been followed:
downgrade to lollipop 5.0
install CandySIX Rom , then try to connect to my carrier network , at the first time it not give me anything , but when i reboot my phone , LTE appears and everything fine
back to CloudyG3 2.5 then i found that the problem resolved
My phone now works well

OKAY, i found a solution to the problem and here is what i found :
Pacote-san said:
Same here...
Edited: Fixed this deletings the folder LTEconfigs on System/app
Had to then configure it to auto GSM/WCDMA then switch back to LTE auto
It connected at first with 3g then it went LTE and worked normally

Some people got their phones back to normal by flashing some roms (like CM, ACIP, stock, etc.), but that didn't work for mine
not sure if it was sim card fault, but my problem solved (at that time i was back to LP stock 20h) after swapping my sim cards with my friend's.
i am still using that sim card at this moment, working fine since last thursday

Same problem here, have signal drops on MM roms with LTE connection.
Tried all methods above, nothing really helps .. ;((
The signal is fine on LP roms, tho i installed N&N so i was able to change network type to GSM/WCDMA auto, having steady signal now, but missing LTE speed, trying to find solution to fix this, but unfortunately for now.

Same, my G3 doesn't recognize my sim sometimes or it just loses signal randomly, making the smartphone almost useless.
I tried CloudyG3 2.5 Lollipop, then upgrading to Marshmallow with many radios flashed (also the hybrid one) , then I tried to come back to a stock Lollipop ROM and the signal is always unstable. I'm going crazy due to that. I'm starting to lose hope too.

I think I've tried every possible solution to the connectivity problems I've read since flashing 30b.
Freezing LteConfigs gave me more stability, but didn't solve the problem completely. Tried editing the build.prop to force LTE as preferred network type, this didn't change anything. Don't even know how many times I've changed my apn settings.
Tried every combination of modems possible: 21a/c modem with 30b rpm/tz, pure 21a/c, pure brazilian 20c, brazilian 20c with 30b rpm/tz and nothing. Changed sims multiple times, didn't work.
The only way to get a reliable connection is to limit the phone to 3G... but that isn't a solution since I pay for unlimited 4G. If I let the phone in auto mode, the instant it tries to connect I lose all connectivity and it would take up to 2 minutes searching for the network.
I'll flash the stock rom today and if it doesn't work I can safely say it should be a hardware problem.

I had exactly the same problems I tried all of the solutions mentioned modems/roms/etc but what solved it for me was flashing the Pure stock MM kdz now no signal drops or 4g problems.

Did you root after flashing the kdz? I'll try with pure 30B but having no root is almost as bad as no 4G.

No not rooted it yet, to be honest I don't like the kingroot app it looks way too suspicious to me + the rom is smooth and stable at the moment so I thought I would stick with stock for a while.

LG G3 4G Network Drops

So the problem I'm having with my G3 is that the Network either drops and comes back repeatedly or completely drops and does not return. This only happens on 4G. When I go into network settings and change network mode to 3G it works fine and I get a constant signal all the time.
I have been using Fulmics ROM and I thought maybe that was the issue. But it wasn't.
I tried 3 different sims from three different carriers (Three, EE, O2) on several stock firmwares. (20N, 21C, 30A, 30F).
Each scenario is the same; network drops when phone is on 4G network mode, but its fine on 3G mode.
However, I have noticed that if I leave Wifi OFF allowing 4G data to connect first, then its fine. I can even turn Wifi ON again and the network is stable. I can even turn Wifi and Data OFF and the network is still stable.
But, if I toggle aeroplane mode, where Wifi connects first or where Wifi and Data is turned OFF; I am back to the network dropping.
Also, I live in London UK so there should not be any signal issues. Can anyone tell me why this is happening. I doubt it's software issue as I've tried several firmwares.
Any help is appreciated.

Mate I'm afraid there is a high possibility it's the Fulmics ROM.. I'm still trying to read up on the issue myslef, there's a ton of reports in the Fulmics thread and around.

I'm using an UK bought LG G3 as well (from Three) and started experiencing similiar issues after I flashed Fulmics. Even tried rolling back to 4.4.2 using a .tot file but didn't really help me.
Still scouring all around trying to find how to fix the issue..

Hmmm looking back now this issue did start when I first installed fulmics 3.5. But shouldn't everything revert back to stock when you reinstall stock firmware.

That's what I thought but I guess it's a little bit more tricky.
Anyways I think I managed to restore some kind of stability in the signal, still unsure about the process though. Seems that different stuff are working for different people. In a few days I hope to have some information to give you how to fix it.
In the meantime try checking the Fulmics thread for ideas and suggestions (that's where I start off from).

Yeah let me know when you find a fix. Really appreciate the help.
One thing that is sort of a temporary fix for me, works on Three, EE and O2 (only ones i tried), is connecting Data first when on 4G mode.
So if I toggle airplane mode and if Wifi connects first then the network drops or keeps refreshing.
But, if I leave Wifi OFF and Data establishes a connection; the network is stable and I can then turn Wifi On again and the network will remain stable.
I just have to make sure the network does not lose connection (i.e. tunnel or airplane mode), and if it does ensure Data connects first.
Also, another thing. After I reinstalled Fulmic 5.3 it seems 4G mode is sort of stable. As in when on 4G mode instead of dropping the network it connects via 3G automatically. But this only happens with Three.

Okay here is what worked for me - open this guide and download the Three specifiic Lollipop and Marshmallow .kdz files.
Flash the stock Marshmallow firmware first using the LG Flash Tool method. Your phone probably won't automatically get recognized since you're running Fulmics now so you'll need to change the COM port as described in post #
After that downgrade to stock Lollipop using the LGUP method. Personally I downloaded more updated (I think, not sure) files from here.
Then I proceeded to re-root and clean install Fulmics 5.1 and the 5.2 and 5.3 OTA updates from recovery. Booted and network works without drops now with 4G connectivity.

I changed my carrier and got an automatic SMS with configuration for my phone and instructions to save it. I should've known something was fishy when I recieved the "congratulations for setting up" message even before I recieved the actual settings. Anyways 4G was running fine on my new carrier with 32 mbps speed which is okay, much better compared to the same carrier 3G network, however I only had 3 bars of connection so I gussed what the heck, I should save that configuration after all, it might make things better. What a bloody mistake. I lost 4G connectivity and my phone refused to connect to the 4G network, only 3G (just as you describe).
What worked for me in this scenario was wiping the cache and dalvik (not really sure this step is even necessary to be honest, but I was headed for a full rom re-wipe anyway and decided to try with this first), going into the hidden menu and choosing LTE only connectivity (Fulmics Tweaks -> Hidden Menu [or the hidden code for the phone app if you decided to stay on stock, which I dont have] -> Modem Protocol -> RAT Selection -> LTE only. At this step my phone got to the usual 3 to 4 bars of connectiviy but was displaying "Emergency mode only" and no data at all. I proceeded to Settings -> Networks -> More -> Mobile Networks -> Access point names -> Reset to default from the menu. If network mode doesn't change back to GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto automatically, change it back manually. At this point I had restored back my 4G connection and everything is working normally (30-32 mbps connection stationary in my house through a wifi hotspot next to my laptop).
Good luck, I would follow the steps as described just in case. I tried many reflashes before that should've worked but didn't for me. However different things work for different people, hope this works for you and please report back

Okay here is what worked for me - open this guide and download the Three specifiic Lollipop and Marshmallow .kdz files.
Flash the stock Marshmallow firmware first using the LG Flash Tool method. Your phone probably won't automatically get recognized since you're running Fulmics now so you'll need to change the COM port as described in post #
After that downgrade to stock Lollipop using the LGUP method. Personally I downloaded more updated (I think, not sure) files from here.
Then I proceeded to re-root and clean install Fulmics 5.1 and the 5.2 and 5.3 OTA updates from recovery. Booted and network works without drops now with 4G connectivity.

I'd like to thank you so much for this information! I was having signal drop issue after installing Fulmics ROM. Tried to flash stock ROM but no success. After doing the downgrade via LGUP method to LP my phone is getting full signal again (at least I didn't notice any drop until now).
Thank you!

Sorry for the late reply.
I followed your instructions and unfortunately it didn't work. :crying:
I first tried with the D85520f you provided and then with an updated D85521C firmware. But nothing worked.
The temporary fix, which I found works, is to ensure 4G mobile data establishes a connection first before Wifi (turn Wifi OFF then ON after data established). Then there is no signal drop until I go through a tunnel or phone restarts (signal drops completely), which means again i have to ensure 4G mobile data establishes a connection before Wifi or else it'll go back to the constant signal dropping.
Guess I'll just stick with 3G at all times. I've spent too much time trying to correct this than actually finding enjoyment in using the phone.
Anyway really appreciate the time and effort you took to help with this annoying situation. :good::good::good:

I flashed dummies and get dropped 4g data like this.
I have tot back to stock and didn't help... not Kdz
Haven't downgraded yet to LP yet.

Can I just flash this modem? Have a link to the 21c modem?
Flash in twrp or send via LG flash?
