Submitting things online takes ages to finish...

Hi
Got my One X yesterday and the sim card is not activated yet.
When i'm using e.g Tapatalk or are trying to replying to facebook comments it takes ages to finish.
I can't use my SMS Backup+ to restore my SMS's...
This can't be because of the non activated sim-card....
Very bad i think!
I'm beginning to think it's my router... does it have restrictions with wifi in some way?

How slow is slow? Could you give us specific times?

Tapatalk for example kinda times out and never returns to screen. Just the small window on top saying working or something. I think something is wrong with tapatalk... I changed my WiFi channel yesterday and got a faster browsing experience, but tapa has problem here.
I've narrowed it down to my WiFi connection, because my device is faster on 3G data connection.
Someone else here who have a Netgear WNR2000 router? (longshot i know)
EDIT: Have now found out that this is a "known" issue and i have to wait for the fix!

Sprint SGS3 Wifi Tether closes itself...help!

Hey guys,
I am enjoying my Sprint variant Galaxy S3 a lot, but after rooting and installing the wifi tether/hotspot app, it works great, but I am having some issues and was wondering if anyone else had the same issue or if someone knew how to resolve this issue.
The issue:
While everything works just fine for a while (I am posting this thread using wifi tether) often times I see the wifi connection has dropped on my laptop and when I check my phone the wifi tether app is no longer running. I have to restart the app and everything is fine. This is getting pretty annoying as it happens very randomly! I haven't had this issue on my Epic 4g Touch at all and was just curious if maybe there was something I was missing or if perhaps others were experiencing this as well. I drop time varies a lot...sometimes I can use the connection undisturbed for 1+ hours, but other times the app closes after 10 minutes and requires a restart...its just more of an annoyance than anything as the program does work every time its restarted, but It would be nice if I could get a solid/stable connection going despite the lackluster 3g speeds.
If anyone knows a fix or could help me out, this would be much appreciated! I did a search and couldn't find any open posts about this :[
Thanks!

Edit:
Hmm... Ok It disconnects about every 15 minutes or so... I tried changing the profiles to multiple different ones (Nexus CDMA, Galaxy S2, Generic ICS) All with the same result...it disconnects and I have to click the white wifi button to restart the tethering. :/ Happened on stock rooted and I just did a full wipe and installed the Blazer ROM and seems to be the same. Thanks again if anyone has any kind of input.

Hey man...it seems like it holds on to the signal longer and when I uncheck it, it dims the screen but it doesn't fully shut off...it seems to like that and keep the connection. When I manually turn the screen off it will disconnect me again. I hope its not my phone! Its definitely better than before!

Well unfortunately, I always have my phone plugged in when running the app so the screen being on isn't a problem for me.. there are some apps out there ( i can't seem to remember the names right now ) that will try to prevent the app from being killed by android's task manager, i'd look into them... good luck

[Q] No connection- Retry error on google apps with 2G/3G

I am at my wits end here.
I changed operators about a month ago, from a weak operator to the best operator in my Country(with the strongest signal). Ever since then, I don't know if it's a coincedence, I am experiencing this incredibly annoying error. Ironically, with my previous operator who had a much worse signal this never happened before. The only difference here is that my previous operator used a regular micro SIM card and my new operator is using something called USIM. I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
It doesn't happen every time, it's really sporadical, sometimes it works everytime, sometimes it doesn't. I open Gmail and I receive a "No connection" and a retry button. I go to Play Store and get the same thing, my Gtalk gets disconnected. I hit the retry button and sometimes it connects immediatelly and sometimes I have to tap it numerous times.
What's weird about it, I always have the strongest HSDPA signal, full bars and browsing the web works. It's just the Google apps that get disconnected. It is incredibly annoying.
Things I have tried to solve this:
1. Clear cache and data for all gapps
2. Clear dalvik
3. messed with my APN settings(they are 100% correct, checked with the operator)
4. Full wipe
5. Repair with PC Companion with no additional apps installed.
6. New SIM from my operator
Nothing has helped. This keeps happening. I have no idea what to do.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? Any idea is appreciated. I am running ICS 6.1.A.2.55.
Thanks

I get the same problem sometimes. Usually while activating wifi, but it happens when i'm on 2G/3G as well. Totally random and i'm on a weaker operator.
On 2.55 as well (no mods at this moment), with ics17 kernel

Never got that on WiFi. :-/

Maybe Google is blocked its services for your operator. Try psiphon3 for android and "Tunnel whole device".

Could you please elaborate on this? How does this app work, what's the point? I just installed it and I'm not sure what I will accomplish with this.

Run the app and check the "Tunnel whole device". When it is successfully connected, a green dot will appear.
After that, test Google apps.
Report result please.

I just tried it, done just what you said and the green dot appeared. But my internet stopped working, no data seemed to pass through. Not even browser.

I don't see how this can help me as my problem is not losing internet connectivity overall, it's gapps not connecting. Web browsers work all the time.

so, anything from google (stock browser, youtube, gmail, play store) are having retry error ? but apps like whatsapp, viber, opera browser just run flawlessly ? if thats the problem.. like i mention above, download 3g reconnect. the apps seems to force google apps to use data connection instead staying idle.
i recommend that apps bcause im having the same problem, having retry error on youtube and play store, and gmail just wont sync but opera and whatsapp run like normal.
read the description on that apps before download.

I have been given a solution in the most unexpected of places....Sony support forums!
Try removing proxy/port from the APN and see if that helps.
It sure did help, never had the error again.

Delete host file from system/etc/
It may work

[Q] Odd issue with phone showing poor quality images when connected to sprint LTE?..

So hopefully someone has an idea because this is driving me crazy. It seems like something is detecting the sprint LTE and does not recognize it as a high speed connection and sets something as a lower speed and telling the phone to download lower resolution images.
I have seen this on a few roms now so I dont think its a rom problem but I'm currently on M.O.A.R 4.0 but have seen the issue on hyperdrive also. My Area (WA state pugent sound area) has recently have been upgraded to sprint lte in this area but its still not %100. When using LTE the speed is great but for some reason anytime i use Tumblr on LTE it will download VERY VERY low resolution copies. If I click the link in tumblr and open it in browser I get the same low resolution picture even if I click download or reload the browser....? I have noticed this happening in another app "short blogger" does the same thing. So here is another bit of info. If I use my vpn program that I normally use for when i have to connect to a open wifi (vpn1click).
So LTE+ tumblr= crap pictures
LTE+VPN gets full quality pictures.
3g gets full quality pictures %100 no matter how slow sprint is that day just wifi= perfect %100 fine
if anyone has any idea's how to prevent or fix this please let me know. Am I the only sprint user having this issue? Is it maybe something with the LTE towers in this area of WA? I thought this may be related to power saving settings on the s3 as I knew some of them did things with pictures but I shut all of those off and the problem still happens.

I use LTE about 90% of the time an do not have that issue. Could be as you say just that the upgrades are being done or your getting slower than normal speeds. Are you using the stock browser or something else. I use Chrome or Dolphin browser and do not experience that. I do remember that sometimes the stock browser did do that.

Only thing is our LTE is WAY faster than our 3g so I think its a misdetection of the connection type someplace. I use chrome and firefox and both will do it. As well as both the tumblr app and the shortblogger app. I just did another test. I put my phone on 4g went into tumblr pictures look like crap. I then copy the URL and try opening in other programs it will look the same. I then turned on my wifi and reload the same webpage and now it looks great.
Also if I use a VPN with LTE the problem disappears. Could it be sprints proxy or something on LTE?

Try reprovisioning your phone
Go into the dialer (make sure you're connected to wifi) and dial ##72786#

Thanks for the suggestion but still having the issue. My power button has been sticking so I'm going to have that repaired and then go back to bone stock and make sure the issue is still there and then try upgrading to M.O.A.R 5.1 hopefully can figure something out its annoying as hell

[Q] Stock Chrome browser slow loading pages

All,
Have any of you new G4 owners been experiencing ridiculously slow page loading times with the stock browser? My old GS3 loads web pages much faster in Chrome by comparison, as does my work iPhone. What gives?!
Thanks in advance!

Same here. With stock chrome it's lagging when i watch a movie on website.

Have you tried a different version of chrome like the beta, or my favorite right now, Chrome Dev?

I haven't tried any other versions of chrome...did notice that I wasn't even able to load a page at all while photos were uploading, wonder it has to do more with how it's handling data traffic.

I've noticed it also happens when using the "in app" browsers in Facebook or Twitter. I've also tried increasing the memory available to chrome using by typing in by changing maximum tiles for interest area to 512 to no avail.

I'm beginning to think this may be a wifi connection issue, even tho my wifi tests faster than the 4G connection. Pages are loading much more quickly over 4G.

Yes i think this is wifi related also... Same happens to me but only on wifi

It just seems to have problems loading web pages for me. Sometimes I will just get black squares but other times it just wont load. I will refresh and get nothing for awhile. I'm doing this at home where my Note 4 wasn't having a problem. Also doing this on cellular data. I doubt this is a network issue.

I did try chrome beta and Opera mini- opera was faster due to the data compression, but chrome beta was just as slow to load.

Root-Adaway problem solved tolpic closed xD

I've noticed insanely slow loading times using IPv6 over WiFi with some Comcast modems, so I rooted and disabled v6. Dunno if you guys are having the same issue, but it fixed my problems. Apps like Instagram were slow to load/refresh as well, though.
