Not sure what's going on here but when I turn on Wi-Fi in the watch, the watch lags so bad, almost comes to a halt. It's also not easy to figure out if it has something to do with Bluetooth radio. Does anyone know what's the issue?

That is unusual. I use Wi-Fi all the time and have not experienced anything like that. Perhaps it's a third party? app?

I reset my watch and the issue seems to have gone.

So, here is the situation with my Samsung Galaxy S2. Every now and then, when the phone is left idle and I try to browse to use the Internet after a while, the speeds are unusable.
So, I run one of those network refresh apps every now and then (which basically puts the phone into airplane mode and back) and that always solves the problem.
My question is whether anyone knows an app that can do this automatically, say once every hour.
Now, this is an issue that I had with my phone ever since I installed ICS on it and none of the different ROMs had helped and neither did flashing different radios.
So, if anyone knows an app like this or has a similar problem with their phone, all help is much appreciated.
Should be a way to do this in either Llama, which is free, or Tasked, which is a paid app.

My gps is constantly going off recently which never happened before. I can't figure out why, though. Hoping there is a way to tell which app is causing it

You could get BetterBatteryStats to see which process triggers it.
Although, if you have it turned off and location access off, it shouldn't trigger on it's on. Unless you gave permission to a app to do so (like facebook).
I Can't find a thread about this, so I was go ogling and that doesn't really help. I am having major problems with my wifi it keeps dropping non stop and it's really annoying. I have my phone stock but rooted and was wondering is there any way to fix this? I know it's a Samsung problem but if I were to load this up with a rom should that help? Thanks in advance

Maybe it's your router or better yet the router settings. Have you tried changing any of those settings?
Am I missing something? How is it a Samsung thing? What kind of router do you have?

After looking all night I found a thread that fixed this. You have two choices really to fix or buy your router which I'm not going to do, or you can type in on your dial pad *#0011#. Then you click your menu button, click on the wifi option, and then disable the energy saver wifi mode. That made it so my phone wouldn't drop wifi connection anymore. NOTE: each time you restart your phone you need to turn the wifi energy saver off through the command *#0011#. Hope I helped some of you because this bug is truly annoying.

That stinks. I don't have any problem and I think this is only the 2nd time I've seen anything posted like this about the S4 (the S3 did have that issue and was common). I've never turned off any energy saver and mine stays connected 100% of the time. So you're saying either that or you have to buy a new router? What kind do you have now and what settings on it did you find out that cause this issue for you?
Right now I have whatever Verizon gives fios customers. It works perfectly for all my phones, tablets, and computer. Just not on my s4 unless I do the dial pad trick. I'll post a link on the xda thread when I get home on how to fix your router. It really does make me angry that I paid 600 for the phone and it does this. Hopefully Samsung fixes this soon since they acknowledge the problem

Btw here's Samsung acknowledging the problem.

Do you have a dlink router?
GS4
My gf has an S4 and has the same problem. We have a Netgear WNDR3500. So it's not isolated to a D-Link. She also did the dial pad trick and it seems to work for her as well. Need to find a script to run on boot to set the power save to OFF.

Does anyone know why the android wear app always has to be running in the background even while Bluetooth is off and the watch is disconnected? Seems like a waste of battery life and performance when the watch is not even in use...
Greenify also has no effect on it for some reason...

because its a service? i don't think the connectivity state is dependent on the app's performance. the app is waiting for a connection or an opportunity to connect anyway.
Anyone experiencing this at all? Doesn't happen all the time but lately I seem to be experiencing this. I will tap the screen several times an nothing happens. It takes awhile for it to respond. Very odd.

Same here - seems to be worse since the update to 5.0

Yeah I only have used the watch during lollipop so I can't comment on how it was before. Wonder if its just a Sony SM3 thing or all wear devices running 5.0. Hopefully a fix in the process.

I'm fairly certain whatever was done to the kernel coming to 5.0 ruined the wake up time. It was so much faster on KitKat. If we really cared, we would start poking around in the kernel sources.

Possibly underclocked the device? Reason people saw improved battery life after 5.0? Just a guess.
Same for me in LG-R. It is not a watch problem but an other wear bug. Wear seem hang some time because it lost it connexion with phone and take awhile before silent reconnect.

Good to know its wear and not device dependent.
