is there a way to see them? I could on my HTC devices.
I've been trouble shooting a WiFi calling issue that I think I've beat, but would like to see the logs.

Calling ability "freezes", sometimes mid-call, requires reboot in order to call again
Anybody else having this annoying problem with their Epic 4G touch? Because I'm at my wit's end here.
My call signal will frequently "lock up".
The first time this happened I was trying to call someone, the phone wouldn't ring, so I tried to end the call. The phone refused to cancel the call, no matter how much I pressed "end", even in the status bar. Restarting the phone allowed me to call the person.
2nd time I was in mid phone call with someone, and then all of a sudden... silence. I thought it was just a normal dropped call, but then I noticed that I was still "on-call" with the individual. Attempting to end the call to call again once again led to it locking up. Restarting the phone corrected it.
Now I've found out that nobody was able to call me this entire weekend, and when I realized this, I went to try to call someone... same problem. Had to restart it agian.
Nothing else outside of rooting has been done to the phone. I have not gone beyond anything asides from installing root explorer (and have not tinkered with the guts of the phone at all).
I'm getting sick of it, is the phone busted? I have 7 days left before I can return it.
Another interesting thing is that my data works fine on it. 4G especially.
Appreciate any help with this problem, thanks!
This happens to me when I get the LOS issue. Both the call menu freeze and LOS seem related. I reboot to fix it.
Btw, loss of signal is a known issue and is supposed to be fixed in a maintenance release. No ETA or news as of yet.

LOS? Do you mean Loss of Signal or is this something else? Is it a well known bug in the Epic 4g touch?
Data and 4G seems to work just fine though.

Yeah, LOS = Loss of Signal.
Our phones don't use 4G to make calls. That's why if you are connected via 4G or WiFi, you will still have data connection. If you were on 3G only, calls, 3G data or texts would not work during the LOS issue.
It seems as though more and more people are coming out saying they are having the same issue as well as other issues. I hope they come out with a fix very soon. It is very frustrating. There are other bugs out there that really need to be resolved and should* be able to be fixed via an update, but until then...
So my understanding is that this locking up of my calling and signal ability is a common bug?
Well, that's terrible. Any way around it, or are people hopelessly awaiting a fix from Samsung?

Reporting Loss of Signal Issue Samsung Epic Touch Rally

Interestingly enough,
I have un rooted my phone, and now I do not experience any problems thus far.
It used to be near daily when it came to these signal losses, I wonder if it has anything to do with the rooting or if I am simply enjoying a stroke of luck right now.
It has to be a hardware issue since not everyone gets it right?
I've seen a few similar threads to the one I'm about to make. I've tried different suggestions which I will post here. Yet, none of them seems to work and I'm curious to see if anyone of you has a fix for my problem. My phone is an unbranded international HOX using the 9.7.2 ARHD rom by Mike1986. Here we go:
Problem
While being on WIFI my push notifications aren't coming through in time. There's a delay from anywhere between a few minutes up to as much as 40+ minutes. The phone doesn't have this issue being on the mobile data network. I'm also not 100% sure if the delay is still there when I'm on an different router. Even when I turn on the screen again, the messages seem to come in randomly.
Settings
WIFI best performance enabled
Static IP by router
WIFI sleep policy: Wifi always on
Tried suggestions
Wakelock: One thread described using an app called REGPON keep-alive, which installs a wakelock onto the phone to keep the data connection alive. This app did not do the trick. It only drained my battery and the messages still didn't come through.
Wifi performance: Set the phone to maximum wifi performance. This seemed to work for a while but ended up not working proper either
Kernel: Try a different kernel was one suggestion. I've switched from Stock to Faux123 010 kernel. This didn't change anything about the WIFI problem.
Static IP + Portforwarding + Disabling router Firewall: I've tried both port forwarding on port 5228 and even the range 5224-5228. I've also tried setting up triggered ranges. Maybe I'm doing something wrong on this part though. The router firewall is disabled and it should no longer block anonymous WAN packages.
Disable SmartSync: With the Suite Tools that are included in Mike1986's rom I've disabled Smartsync. No results as far as the wifi problem goes.
Probing app: I've tried an app that supposedly probes my router at least every minute in order to keep the connection alive.
Switching between b/g/n network: Didn't make a difference. The signal quality of the router is also good.
The only thing that did work for extended periods of time was using this remote control app that allows me to type through my PC keyboard, where the text ended up on the phone. I've also got an app installed to test push notifications. It's capable of making a log. Maybe that'll give you guys more information.
Right now I'm not sure if it's an issue with the HOX or if my router somehow stops the traffic. I don't recall having this problem on my HTC Desire. Does anyone have anymore tips?
Thanks,
Zendio
No problem with Gmail push notification on Stock 2.17.401.2.
Yesterday I still was on ARHD 9.7.2, also there I never noticed any delay.
Edit: this complies to various wifi networks (@home, @office, @parents etc.)

I am so sorry to hear you are affected by this problem, but also happy someone else is experiencing the exact same thing as I am !!!
I have tried different solutions to no avail.
Would love to hear something on this topic !!
Also I should note, I don't have any kind of task killer installed.
In general use WIFI feels really fluid and responsive. I really have no idea what could cause these problems.

I hope so. My One S is experiencing the same thing. I've tried everything above. No luck. Some stuff is fairly critical that I get it as soon as it comes in. I might try getting ahold of a Nexus 4 and do some testing with its wifi, just to make sure it isn't a general Android problem.
What router do you have? My issue was any android device in the house. Turned out it was my router, I put a custom firmware on it and all my trouble have gone away. My friend has the WiFi issue on a virgin media superhub.

I have an Asus RT-N66U. Funny you should suggest that. I'd planned to throw Tomato on it tonight and see how that works out. I did some tests at my folks' and their router had the same results. It's some cheap Netgear thing. Not sure of the model at the mo. I'll post back with results. If not tonight, tomorrow some time.
No go
Well that was unsuccessful. Actually it slowed things down. With the default firmware I get notifications from the instant I press power to wake up my phone. With Tomato there was a second or so before I got them.
Time to try DD-WRT tonight to see if that does the same thing.
I have an rt-n56u so the older version of yours and I'm running the Asus wrt that is being made, its fixed all my problems and is awesome tbh.

Set Beacon mode power safe (BMPS) to 0 in WiFi ???.ini config file should resolve this problem.
Such ???.ini config file usually placed under /system/etc/wifi or /system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima/
Hi,
My phone is Galaxy S3 t999l. I've used this phone on various ROMs (JB, KK, and now LP), but no matter what ROM I'm on, there seems to be a weird issue when I'm using WiFi. That is, some messages don't get through. I have a social app that sometimes can't send messages while WiFi is on. If I turn WiFi off, it sends without a problem. But, other times, it can send messages just fine even with WiFi on, so it's random. I've had the same issue with my hangout/sms messages. Can anyone shed any light on what the issue may be and any ways to diagnose/fix it? I'm really hoping it's not a hardware issue.
Thank you,
Brief background: G4 didn't play nice with some Comcast WiFi's causing painfully slow WiFi speeds. The fix came from downloading DNSet & turning it on before to connecting to Comcast's WiFi. Works great and no real problems (thanks to Textra telling me when I failed to receive an MMS! :good
Now that we're rooted, I'm wondering if there's an alternative solution. I am not familiar with everything in build.prop or if there's a specific terminal command I could run, but does anyone have an idea if we can resolve this issue now that we have root?
Can we manually tweak our DNS settings (just once, not every time) so the G4 plays nice with Comcast's WiFi, or change some network/VPN-related setting instead? I literally have no idea what might be a valid solution, so that's why I'm posting this semi-rambling request for help
I'm lazy -- I just don't want to turn on DNSet every time I connect to my home WiFi and have to remember to turn it off when I disconnect so I get MMS messages promptly. Whatever the answer may be, thanks for the help!
Device/software detail: rooted VZW G4 running 10B
How you guys encountered this? I have really great 5Ghz Wifi at home, which gives me about 97Mbs in, 10Mbs out. It works really great when loading pages, watching stuff online etc. Only thing that doesn't seem to work right is getting online messages through. My G3 is D855, with stock Lollipop 5.0 update 20t.
What I mean by that is for example Whatsapp. When someone sends me an message, it can take from instant to 1 hour to reach me. Same with Gmail, Snapchat etc. On 4G connection, messages come in always an instant.
I've performed a factory reset on the G3, but that didn't help. I've also checked that my wifi router does not have any closed ports.
What can I do?
