WiFi issues - LG G8 Questions & Answers

I have recently been having issues with Wi-Fi losing connection. I can toggle Wi-Fi on and off and it seems to come back for a while then disconnects again.
Also the Wi-Fi icon in the status bar has a small + sign in the top right corner of the icon. I've searched but cannot find out what this + sign means. Does anyone know or have similar issues?
Thanks

FYI, Ended up having to do a full factory reset. So far it looks like the problem was resolved. Wish there was an easier way but nothing else seemed to work.

What you could have tried is to factory reset the network settings (mobile and WiFi). Maybe it was solved without manufacturing everything.

Agreed. I did try to reset the network settings but it did not resolve the issue.

Greetings, I had the same problem and I tried a YouTube solution that seems to be effective.
Step 1. You go to the phone and enter the code, you look for the model of your cell phone in my case it is AT&T * # 546368 # * 820 #
Step 2. You go to Field Test.
He passed. 3 You enter Wifi Test.
He passed. 4 Click on the OTA Setting.
Step 5. Here first you give Disable and then Enable, restart and that

WiFi will not connect to internet w/Opera

I cannot get the WiFi to work on my ATT Tilt 2.
Any ideas? I can see connect to the wireless net point, but no connection to the internet.
Kind Regards,
Jim
I'm having the same issue on stock AT&T Rom..
I think I just found a workaround though.. Try starting Opera without wifi on, get it connected, then turn on wifi, go back into Opera and see if that works for you.. I'd love a better fix if there's any other workarounds.. For all my searching, I can't find it..
From my wifi

i've got the SAME problem as you guys. (Owning an TP2 device with WM 6.5)... the Wifi connects to my Router But I cant get any data from it when im using Opera OR Skyfire.. even though I got a full signal.
PS. I did however notice some weird stuff from the Ip-adress - witch were not correct given that my router is sharing NAT adress with "192.168.0.XX" and not 192.168.1.XX -Witch were given in my Htc device..
And according to my D-link Router, My htc device gets No IP whatso ever.. But it can be detected.
Any solution ??
"tools" / "proxy manager"/ disable proxy

See.. I thought I already tried that.. Just applied it again, and still no go.. Hmm..
Edit- nope.. still not working even after a reset.. I just hard reset this thing (stock AT&T) 2 days ago.. skyfire and pie are working fine with the wifi..
My above method is still the only way it's working..
Yup same problem here, I came across this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621466&highlight=wifi+problems
and I guess if you update your Opera to a newer version it will correct this problem, but it seems to be alot of info there. Has anyone tried this?

Twitter Notifications Borked?

I have already posted about this in my Google+ profile, but Twitter notifications have not been working for quite a long time on my Galaxy Nexus, across a wide variety of AOSP based ROMs. Whenever I try to change my notification settings, I get the message "there was a problem updating notification settings".
Anyone else experience this or know how to fix it? I've already tried clearing out all my partitions and stuff, and as an FYI, I always do a full wipe before installing any ROM.

Notifications have been broke for me also mate. Frustrating as hell, in addition when I tweet and go @ it does not load my full list of contacts.
Edit: btw when this became an issue someone suggested removing and adding my acct again and this did work temporarily. Maybe you can give it a try, might help you.
FYI, the solution was given to me. Turns out you have to sign out of the account, revoke access to the app through Twitter.com and sign back in.

OMG it works. Thank you for this. I can't believe I failed to come across. As I said earlier wiping acct and signing in did work.

Hidden menus - ANT Settings

While messing around with the hidden menus, I turned on PRX/DRX measurement display , under RF -> ANT Setting menu. There seems to be no way to turn the option off again.
Can this have any impact on battery life / performances? Is there a way to disable it? If i click again on the PRX/DRX ON button, it reboots the phone but the option stays ON.

I cant find a clear answer what this is for some say fm radio others say its how gear talks wi5h the fone. I hate to make an example here thought this is why we dont touch settings we dont know about. U hqve no clue what it does and for all u no u coulda wiped ure phone. This is a big no no but enough of that u way no matter how many times u click it stays on. Only other way would to restore ure backup or it may been on in the first place. Or a factory reset if no backups

ANT+ seems to be a communication protocol for data exchange between smartphons and various types of sensors.
On the other hand, "ANT settings", in the hidden menu context, seems to stand for ANTenna settings...
Did some research and I'm starting to figure it out a little bit.
PRX should be "primary data receive" while DRX is "diversity data receive" (it could also mean "Discontinuous reception" ....). Both have to do with LTE-WCDMA (?).
I'm not into telecom engineering, but I guess having both ON it's the way it's meant to be.
What is strange, is the menu behaviour : initially showing nothing, then apparently enabling both, and now allowing to turn off either one function or the other but not both at the same time.
For the time being, I see no anomalous behaviour or battery drain.
Bottom line : better not to tamper with it, I concur. But it would be nice to know what exactly PRX/DRX means , and if the menu is merely a tool for reading network performances ("lte ml1 serving cell measurement") or it actually enables/disables antenna features.
PRX is primary data receive signal.
DRX is diversity data receive signal.
You can guess the rest of it....

Mi remote

Hi guys.
A few days ago I noticed that I can't see any other device besides mi box in the Mi controll app.
Anyone with the same issue?

I ever use this app either on miui or AOSP and never had this issue, try clearing cache and data and restart the app and if needed uninstall and reinstall it. The first screen you´ll have is "Add remote", then Mi TV/Mi Box and a second later they´ll appear all the other options.
Try to switch off wifi and data usage and then try to launch the app and see if it works

Wifi can be active or not, this app doesn't need it, device has integrated an Infrared transmitter.

This is strange, try to update the app through Play Store, clearing first all data and cache. I ever use it without care that Wifi is on or off.

It did used to work as yours, I guess it started since last update.
I can't use with any kind of connection (mobile data or Bluetooth).

Question Can't clear persistent notification from Google that says 'Downloading'

I have a notification from Google that says 'Downloading'. When I try to find what specifically is showing it, it says Data Download Notification Channel. I'd prefer to just figure out why it's there and be able to fix the issue, and not just hide the notifications from that one specific thing. Anyone hav any ideas how?

I know this doesn't give you what you want, but I would just chalk it up to a one-off quirk. I would expect rebooting would likely get rid of it, and hopefully, it wouldn't return, at least not regularly.

Rebooting does temporarily get rid of it but it comes back pretty soon after reboot. So I don't think it's a one off unfortunately.
Edit: my mobile data signal just went to like one bar and the notification went away. When I drove into a better signal area it came back.

pixel 6 "Google notifications"
Does anyone know why I'm getting a Google Downloading notification so many times a day, and you can't clear them either, without disabling every notification in settings. It doesn't give any clue as to what's being downloaded. When I tap & hold...
forum.xda-developers.com
Same here.
I've had this numerous times. Go into Apps and force stop the Google app. It makes it go away permanently. Or at least until next time it happens.
Just use wifi network for few minutes. Google has some updates to do in background. So that it keeps coming.
You can try below 2 other solutions if you like.
1. Turn off data download notification in settings.
2. Update the offline voice.
Open Google app > Top profile > Settings > Voice > offline voice Recognition > Languages > update.
