Hi folks, I was curious if anyone here is experiencing any wifi issues. I see it both at work and home. At work, it drops often. Could be the access points but my other devices work ok. Nexus 5X Moto X Pure etc.
At home what is more frustrating is I will be watching something on YouTube or Netflix and then all of the sudden it stops playing the video. I can toggle wifi off and on but that only helps for a short period of time and then it happens again. I am still within my 14 day window and have had other Samsung devices have similar issues. Am I alone with this? Or do I swap it out and pick a different device? Though truth be told, don't know what what would be.
Thanks!

I've been having a problem on all of the recent nightlies, and i know lots of people are having the same problem on the CM6 RC2, where turning off the screen puts the wifi to sleep, even when you have the wifi sleep policy set to "Never".
I noticed this when i started trying to stream music from Grooveshark or Subsonic- if i turn the screen off, the song stops a few seconds later, presumable because it has run out of buffer.
Is anyone else still having the same problem? Does anyone have a workaround for this?
edit: it seems to have no problem staying awake on my home network, but my work network is where i have the problem- could it be something about the wifi network that is doing this?
well, strike that- i'm encountering the same problem on the 2.2 stock rooted ROM as well. it appears to be a problem with the wireless network here at work.
I might have left my phone screen on at home, which would have let everything buffer, preventing me from noticing the problem there, but i'm pretty sure the wifi sleep policy works correctly on my home network. Very strange.
This is easily reproducible for me as well and only started happening with CM6.
for me this happens on every rom, even stock. there has not been a day i've gone to bed and woken up 8hrs later with my wifi on.

I'm glad I'm not the only one- though it seems to happen more to N1 owners, it seems this is happening to android users all over the place. From everything I've read today, no one can figure what causes it- there's no rhyme or reason to it. For me, the wifi sleep policy works correctly on my home network, but not my work one.
I read a post from a week ago somewhere that there was a fix coming from broadcom (those are the same people that are responsible for my router's wireless N problems with DD-WRT), but I don't know if that was referring to a Nexus One specific fix or a fix for all android phones.
I'm glad at least my wifi sleep policy works correctly at home, but the fact that, for some reason it doesn't work on a different network is extremely annoying.
Something Odd today.
Haven't had much issue but I started using XBMC on the ouya. Was watching an SD movie, so not much throughput, and all of a sudden playback stopped saying the connection timed out. I didn't think much of it, and I figured it was an issue with the alpha build of the SF capable XBMC...
Well it happens a few times, while I was running a ping to it. Turns out the connection was dropping. Fine, no problem, its right next to the wifi AP so ill switched to wired, I heard of wifi issues with the ouya. Well... its still doing it. About every 5 minutes or so I have a connection drop, lose about 20 packets, and it doesn't always happen under load.
Anyone see this? this could either be an overheat issue, or a driver issue, but I haven't seen it yet, so I'm wondering what its doing all of a sudden.
Weird... fixed after a hard reboot. BTW originally I was having issues from a cold boot, so for some reason theres some instability, possibly on some boots
I've heard about nebulous "WiFi problems" but it doesn't seem like there's any authoritative information on what those problems are. In any case, I was wondering if anyone has experienced this:
This is easier to notice while using some kind of streaming service like YouTube, Netflix, or Hulu, but it's not tied to any specific app. While using the tablet for internet-related activity, every once in a while, the WiFi just stops working. The icon shows full WiFi signal bars, and it's still connected, but any and all attempts to use the wireless connection utterly fail. However, turning WiFi off, then back on, immediately fixes the problem. This happens randomly, as in, sometimes it will happen after 5-10 minutes of use, and other times, it won't happen for several hours.
The tablet is relatively new, has never been dropped or otherwise abused, and has the fitted OEM wraparound case on it. I'm at a loss to figure this out, and am close to just sending it back for a replacement. But I wanted to make sure this wasn't a semi-recognized problem before I did so. Especially since this feels like a software/kernel problem that could theoretically be fixed by installing a different ROM.
Thanks in advance!
Greetings all,
I tried to find this issue before posting a new thread (I did find an old thread with no solutions to the issue but I didnt want to try to revive a dead thread from a year ago) so I apologize in advance if this is a duplicate and if so please link me to the existing thread.
I have an on going issue that ATT has been useless with so I am reaching out to the XDA community now in hopes that I do not need to start using my phone as a door stop.
I have done a ton of research on this issue and it seem that it is software related but the few fixes that I have tried have not helped at all.
The issue is when I am talking on the phone the "mic" will cut out and sometimes so will the speaker. I can be talking just fine with no issues and then the person I am speaking with says its like I hung up. Some times I can hear the person fine but they can not hear me and other times it truly seems as if the phone was hung up. Some times the issue lasts 5 seconds other times its upwards of a minute. I am on my second phone, att was nice enough to replace it once but the issue persists on the new one as well. The issue occurs on the handset as well as bluetooth. Every so often I luck out and have no issues with a call (normally under 3 minutes) but typically when I use my phone as an actual phone the calls are longer than 10. The issue also occurs when speaker is turned on as well with the phone sitting next to me on a table so I do not think it has to do with any form of auto mute (like the old thread I found mentioned).
One of the things that I had found was to make a call with skype and it magically fixes it. Well sadly to say it I have tried that multiple times and it still did not fix it. I have tried running my phone just stock and the issue still occurs so i do not think its an issue with what is installed (mostly just google apps for work and a few games).
If any one has any ideas please let me know. At this point I am willing to try almost anything. Thanks
Turn off Enhanced LTE (HD Voice).I just had an AT&T rep confirm that this is their networknetwork problem. Apparently, HD Voice (VOLTE) isn't quite right, and the bugs are numerous. Turn it off, should fix these issues and maybe more.

I just reset my note 4 to stock last night. I just checked and Enhanced LTE is off and I am still having the same issues that others are reporting and just terrible signal strength in general. If I am indoors anywhere I am lucky to have 2 bars and then half the time calls don't go through. I am headed to the ATT store now to see what they say. I am on next and could upgrade but looking at the list of available phones from ATT I don't know if anything is really going to be better. I don't want to shell out the cash for a nexus 6p but I may end up doing it.
Turning off enhanced seemed to help but I still encounter the issue from time to tine. I'm just counting down the days till my 6p shows up...

Hi all,
After days and days of searching the web and trying everything I can, I'm still having the same issues.
I came across this forum whilst browsing and had forgotten all about it. I used to be a member many,many years ago when I used to tinker with my HTC Hero (great phone at the time).
Anyway, on to my issue....
Since my swap back to Android from ios, everything has been perfect and I haven't looked back...except this one problem and its driving me insane. Basically I have a Hikvision NVR and cameras at home and use the hik-connect app to live view and get notifications. This is where the problem is! My NVR is set to send me notifications when there is a intrusion on the front of my house and although I get the notifications,they are sometimes 5,10 or 15 mins later. Its not all the time, sometime they are instant (although not very often) and if I have my phone unlocked they also come through instantly.
I've checked everything that I can think of including the battery optimisation settings etc.
Does anyone have any ideas? After here Im giving up with it.
