MIUI Data Disconnects - Data Collection Thread - XPERIA X10 Android Development

As far as I am aware not a single one of the recent MIUI releases does not suffer from this issue. The purpose of this thread is to gather information towards identifying the offending process and potentially resulting in a fix!
The problem:
When you lose data connection the device does not reconnect data although still displays the data icon.
How to reproduce:
In real world usage you enter an area of low signal, a building, a lift or a certain carpark it can happen anywhere. To reproduce for testing, set device to 2G only. Load browser and load google.com. Switch now to 3G only and go back to browser and try to follow a link... No data. Toggle data off and on and hey it works again.
What we need:
Logcats of the error occurring. I will post mine up soon. I've done it just not near my pc at the moment. Please keep all discussion focused on the main point of this thread. Your rom dev is not really relevant to mention only version number. I.E 16.9.11

This should be intresting. I've had a chat with some smart guys at my ROMs thread about replacing miui files from old versions. Is the data dropout x10 specific?

Has anyone tried to add this line in the build.prop?
Code:
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
or if it is already there change 0 to 1 ?

It seems to be only reported on x10 ports so far. I tried replacing some files but rom fails to boot. I still stand by my first idea that it is a problem in services.jar or framework.jar.

Sorry was not ignoring you. Was busy trying it and testing. Was already 1 so changed to 0. No luck!

Just tried, shows 0 on Erenz 16 build, root explorer change to buildprop didn't save.
Will look through a few miui props on my sd card.
Thank you!!

RIL power collapse is a state of very very low battery consumption from the radio, while the screen is off.
I found that line searching for tweaks and let some developers know about it (Trip, Cobrato, WB) a few months ago.
However, in practice, at least in MiUI ROMs, when the signal was lost, the phone could not regain it without a reboot.
This line is still in some ROMs and I think it shouldn't be as it may cause issues with signal and data.
So maybe try deleting it altogether or changing to 1.
Sorry if that didn't solve the issue, but, trust me, the line shouldn't be there anyway!

Removed it from prop, will be traveling tonight so I can test signal changes!
Swapped TripNdroid prop to Erenz 16 Miui, will see!

For people have trouble rootexplorer in miui then make a new file with text extension then save it and ad some line in resave it and now you can edit prop file and it be save correct after,this problem occur in miui,the soluce is to create a file and save it after that you could see xml and save tweak correctly

Nope.... Still data drop when traveling from 3g to edge service..
Will keep testing!!

Thanks for the update mate.
Hopefully this will allow the devs to somehow incorporate this fix into MIUI or to investigate the existing DHCP modules...

I was only asking why the other day that they use SE ROMs to port MIUI and not CM7 as a base like so many other MIUI ports. After all MIUI is based on CM7!
Sent from my X10i using xda premium

Out of all the MIUI roms here which are just mods? Is Erenz actually doing the porting himself? We need an actual dev not modder to attempt to base the port on CM7 as a base. Gingervillain mod r1 would be a good start.

My question is this, I have had data disconnects on MOST roms I have used this last year.........................
Living in a small town and traveling two days a week, I see everything from great 3G, H cell service to Edge only ( town I live in is Edge only ) and drop into roaming just sitting on my front porch even!!!
The first rom I ever encountered the data drop off was Trip's CM7 ( from back in the day...) Z's v1 CM7 has the issue, honestly, not sure if the 2.3.3 version does, I have a back up on my sd card I might restore to and see if it happens later this week...
I do know that even with stock se 2.3 I had the same problem....... ( again, my case is extreme )
So in a nut shell, WHAT ROM'S HAVE USERS HAD DISCONNECTS ON, NOT JUST MIUI, ALL ROM'S???????
Best regards,
Chris
P.S... Exactly, data disconnects and does NOT automatically reconnect....Ya have to toggle airplane mode or reclick allow data to reconnect...

Isn't the point that it doesn't reconnect. I experience data disconnects at work but they always RECONNECT when back in signal range on stock.
Every miui rom I have tried fails to reconnect after disconnecting (1.9.16 & 1.9.9). It's a real shame cause I love the miui inerface (except the launcher, I use GO launcher ex)
Tried tried all the 1.9.16 with dooms v05 unlocked kernel and they all fail to reconnect. No problem on wolfs roms v4,5&6.

I never got a disconnect/lack of reconnect on Z's CM7 with hotfix 003, or on Gingervillain mod or stock roms. Only these MIUI roms!

Does some of you try to put module from Z03 to miui and see if it help?
Trip 03 ho ! yea ! It have this cause that for im on cm7 and this occur with all rom have the ****ing trap asshole new illusion semc kernel and for gain what ! ! Camera pfff MDR sucker **** SE,sorry for that but remember when you on 2.1 ,you have speed and no issue only camera so SE dev are not mad and the only thing they want is money and money or money again so for that they work hard and look 2 month and only one rom have full fonction and for now the problem is this data drop,but maybe im wrong another is the bootloder,the gain is what .......nothing appart problem

Automatic WiFi/3G data connection switching on 2.2 ROMs

While I was running the Stock SE 2.1 .435 release (rooted of course) my X10 was capable of automatically switching between the GSM data connection to any of my configured Wifi networks (at work and at home) without any user interaction.
I have a friend with a Motorola Milestone on 2.1 with this same behaviour.
Every 2.2 ROM I have loaded seems to have a problem with regards to this feature. Basically I have to perform a manual switch but here are two of the behaviours I have noticed.
On FreeX10 the SSID basically becomes disabled. If I am at home and connected to my home network and leave the cell area my 3G network becomes established and everything is fine. Once I get back home within the cell area of my WiFi network the WiFi connection does not become active. Instead I have to go into Wireless Settings and that's when I see it is disabled. Long press the SSID and choosing Connect gets me connected.
On [Cyanogen6.1.3]gingerbread[v01] the SSID does not get disabled but rather it continuously fails. Same use case as above except when I go into Wireless Settings I see the SSID "Connecting" and then failing and entering the "Remembered" state.
My friend with the Milestone recently upgraded to 2.2 and will test this scenario to see if it is inherent to 2.2.
My question is, would it be possible to take the 2.1 Wifi component and use that in the 2.2 ROMs?
It would be great this could get fixed, same problem is with the gingerbread roms.
Like u said, it doesn't even help when switching WiFi off/on again using my WiFi widget. U have to manually press connect on your specific WiFi connection.
Pain in the ass!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I have the same problems, tried both roms and ended up sticking with Cyanogen, simply because it was less of a pain re wifi but i still have reconnection problems when leaving my house. The answer is to manually turn off wifi then leave, then reengage wifi manually when i return. A pain but, a small one
Agreed. Toggling the power does not help.
If it is possible to take the WiFi component (for lack of a better word) from another build I strongly suggest considering .435 because it worked phenominally under various conditions.
yea my wifi doesn't seem to work well either with the FreeX10 rom
I assume you already tried Blade Wifi Fix? If not, do so.
The Blade fix was included in the CM ROM I installed. It looks like all it did was power cycle the wifi which as already stated doesn't help.

FreeX10 is almost the same you can try it there too. What it does? Fix Wifi maybe, for some it fixes for some not so just try it you dont loose anything^^
i have been running free x10 for 3 months i suppose. it switches fine for me.
there where issues of WIFI NOT CONNECTING , no problems of switching though as u stated. so i installed blade wifi and everything was well.

I know what it is intended to do but I was wondering how it was doing it. being a technical person I don't like the shotgun approach because the end results are very hard to interpret if you don't know what you are actually doing

hi,
after reading this i though ...
me and wolf include blade wifi on our roms.
for me i don`t have any issue regarding wifi on my rom. i get out of home with wifi connected do a 1 hour trip to my work and when i get there wifi pick signal without any issue.
but......
i don`t check right away, so.
like i said me and wolf we include blade wifi and do some changes regarding build.prop to save some battery. one of the most consumer of battery is the wifi.
on SE roms search for wifi every 15 seconds. on mine i change that to 380 sec and wolf around 200 (i think) so...could this be the cause of ????
i personally don`t believe removing blade will do any difference but...maybe those who had this issues try to change build.prop to 15sec ?
well we might be onto something...after installing Blade I was able to switch but I did not time it...seems to have taken quite some time though. I'll time it next time but I'm sure since it will vary because it looks like it runs a timer and I don't know what the details are.
I wonder if Z made the same changes to build.prop as you guys have. I would be interested in testing without this change.
Also, it would be great to know what Blade actually does. I wonder if it circumvents the changes you made to the intervals in build.prop.
Also, any idea as to whether we can use the WiFi component from the .435 build in these ROMs?
Ren,
Is it possible to go in and change the value in build.prop:
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=
Without reloading the ROM?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yes.
Through root explorer. Just make sure you check all boxes on permitions and after that reboot.

OK. I've been watching what Blade does and all it seems to do is reinitialize the wifi. Seems overkill so I found this:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/wifi/WifiConfiguration.Status.html
I want to write an app that will monitor configured networks and set their status to Enabled.
The challenge for me is that I've never developed an app before but I have the SDK installed and it recognized my x10 so I'm good to go. Ill try to get as far as I can but I will need some help. Is there anyone interested in offering themselves as a resource if/when I need some help?

Froyo WPA2-Enterprise Wifi Issues

Ever since upgrading to 2.2 I have lost the ability to connect to my schools WPA2-Enterprise network. I've searched and found that this was an issue introduced in 2.2 (I could connect fine on 2.1) and has been fixed in 2.3. I've tried all the solutions I've found online and zero have worked. These include using apps from the market such as Wifi Advanced Configuring and replacing the wpa_supplicant file in /system/bin/ with the version from 2.1
The werid thing is, after completely wiping and flashing a new rom, it will connect fine the first time but not after that so im thinking it has something to do with certificate/credential storage?
The network I'm trying to connect to is WPA2-Enterprise, authenticated via PEAP and MSCHAPV2
Can anyone point me in the right direction? What system files might affect this? Can I try replacing them from a 2.3 build?
Any ideas/input would be appreciated
Ummm.....I connect the same exact way with the same exact settings at my job and I haven't experinced any issues while running 2.2. Which rom are you using?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Its happend on all of the 2.2 roms I've tried, (AOSP, MIUI, CM6, TW).
I've had the same issue. The odd thing is that some days I actually get it to link up on the first try to the same router, but other days I do all the various steps that you can find while googling for answers and never get to successfully connect.
Almost makes going back to 2.1 seem worthwhile...
Flashed a new rom today and connected to the network fine first try like usual. Cycled wifi and it wont connect again.
Anyone know where it stores wifi credentials? I'm thinking if I can clear them each time I want to connect it should work...
I'm in the same boat...although, my thread is on the second page with no replies. I am also unable to connect to enterprise wifi on campus...drives me nuts. I've spent countless hours trying to figure this out. I had no problems with enterprise wifi on 2.1...I wonder which file I could flash from 2.1 to make it work, I'm sure someone knows.

Are you saying my school restricts Android 2.2 users from using thier wifi while allowing 2.1 users to use it? I'm not sure what you mean...
Im saying maybe they needed more bandwidth so they put a block/allow list on their wifi. Nothing to do with your froyo. Or android. Could be they are ALLOWING ONLY KNOWN IP ADDRESSES now..(Since you dont know what an allow list is) Happened to me at work. And i dont have 3g at work so it sucks.
Only other explanation is that you screwed up during flashing. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. I mean.......my wifi works just fine and ive flashed every rom in the dev section...currently on ec01 and wifi wpa2/enterprise is flawlessly working.

I'm fairly certain its not either of these issues, considering after I flash a rom I can connect to my schools network fine the first time. Its the subsequent connections that are giving me issues.
Here's a link to the issue on googles open source android project.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386
It basically says that it was an issue not present in 2.1, introduced in 2.2 and fixed in 2.3. I'm wondering if anyone knows what system files might affect this (wifi driver, certificates, deeper kernel issues?) and if anyone can point me in the right direction so I can start trying to pull files from other builds and see if it fixes my issues. I'm a complete noob but willing to give it a shot.

Can you at least give a hint as to what changes you have made to fix the data issue?
Is it changes to some radio libraries, or dhcp modules or ramdisk perhaps...? Just want to know to make sure its not something that I have already tried in the past with no luck.

[krn.module] Disable wifi power saving for Dell Streak 360 stock ROM

This wifi driver kernel module "disables" the wifi maximum power management during screen off. The level 2 driver adds it further, changing power saving to off, while on battery power. Hopefully it could increase the wireless strength -- I am testing it.
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damage caused by the updated kernel module, neither its compatibility. I don't think it would work for any other ROM other than stock 360. Also, make sure you had the bcm4325 wifi instead of bcm4329.
Use at your own risk, always do nandroid backups
To update, either use ClockworkMod or StreakMod recovery, and use any of the attached zip file as update.zip.
Alternatively, you can just replace the /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko and reboot the system.
PS: Thanks to Myshkinbob's hint on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752856
WOW , while i was playing with the cifs another wonder came, i do confirm the cifs module works perfect [on 360], am on the process of testing these modules too, streak-custom-ROM-cooks i appeal you to include these modules in your 2.2 based ROMs.
Thank you again !!!
StreakOwners show sreakLove to this dev. {Thanks}
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Wifi streaming is now working flawlessly with screen turned off. The no power saving configuration on battery doesn't seems to improve the signal much. But it doesn't seems to have any significant increase on battery usage, so I suggest to just go for the level 2 version.
Gonna ask the obvious before someone else does
setting wifi sleep to 'never' doesnt accomplish what you want? What happens exactly if you set it to 'never' without loading your module? Is it as described in your link where it goes down to ~100kb/s link speed?
Wonder if porting to another kernel is as simple as using it's matching config.gz like with tun.ko or cifs.ko(?)

No it doesn't -- it is unrelated, actually. The bandwidh limit imposed by maximum power saving is much less than the required bandwidh for streaming FLAC audio. The result is intermittent audio playback with repeating 2-5 seconds silence and audio pattern.
Not to mention that I occasionally experiences IM+ Google Talk, YM, and Jabber session disconnects due to the same problem

I believe an app could also prevent wifi to enter max power saving mode on screen off. But to make sure it does, then you have to try streaming some lossless audio with it

As you're not currently running 2.3 then I assume you're not in hurry for this. We can schedule it later then
Anyway I don't think many people needs this tweak, so let's just take it easy. Just post back when you're ready with a Streak running 2.3.
Sorry but I should've been able to do this by myself if I had 2.3 installed on my phone. But as stated, I don't have any plan for that

I'm back on the gingerbread bandwagon, however I am having wifi issues and I wonder if your fix can help. Randomly, but quite regularly, the wifi still shows as connected, however there is no data throughput. I'm wondering if it possible that the wifi "power down" is going to low and then not powering back up when the screen comes back on. Would your fix help with that at all? If so, I'm ready to help with it for gingerbread.
can u make one for 354? thanks

A fix for this would be fantastic!

i tried.but it disabled my wifi
Raz-or,have you tried putting the 360 update.pkg on your root sd card,then run your phone through the qdl tool......after that....start your phone up in stock recovery,and it will install the 360 you put on sd,then upon reboot go back into stock recovery and do a factory reset......after your up and running,wifi should be working now.after doing this....you could put streakmod recovery on....so you can go back in and do a nandroid backup,and be able to do other things it can do

cm9 ICS beta android 4.0 bugs

Hi all,
I've posted a couple times before on getting the wifi working on stock Moto android for the photon, I cannot reply on the dev forum discussing this cm9 rom as I'm allegedly less than 10 posts or something.
Each time I boot up with aeroplane mode off (so all network stuff is on) com.android.phone crashes and I just have to press ok, it happens again each time I enable then disable aeroplane mode or type *#*#4636#*#* and turn off then on the radio.
I cannot get any mobile connection, I think the radio cannot turn on as the GSM service is "radio off".
Any ideas on how I should troubleshoot, I think loads of people have the issue but the recommended fix does not work for me (and others).
The recommended fix is to edit /system/build.prop and change ro.telephony.default_network from 7 to 0 and this does not work for me (editing it with root explorer).
I understand that it changes the network type to WCDMA prefered (I think that is another name for UMTS). One can also change the prefered network using the above code in the dialer and scrolling down to just above the button to turn the radio off/on.
Any ideas?
Update:
Sorry for taking ages to reply, seems like most people using the mopho are on Sprint using CDMA and so don't have issues, I'm in Australia on Vodafone so use GSM(2G)/WCDMA (3G).
I got this working ages ago and after a few version changes, I'm now on beta 0.4.5.1 as camera would freeze after taking a picture (including freezing the camera system so face unlock stopped) on beta 0.4.4.
Yes, reflashing rom after editing ro.telephony.default_network to 0 does fix it, but one does not have to reflash, just reboot into recovery and do factory reset other basics may work, though I tried cache, dalvik cache and permission fix, that did not seem to fix it for me. I think factory reset in recovery formats: data, cache, ext-sd/android....something file and one or 2 other things.
I think formatting data gets rid of all your settings, maybe one does not need the data reformat, I wonder if the android file on the SD card has certain settings with the RIL.
When you are having the GSM issue and no signal, under the more menu which is under wireless & networks, there is no "mobile networks" option and when dialling *#*#info#*#* (4636) under phone information, I think GSM service says "radio off".
Yes, after I did make a post, it did say 4 posts and then I actually knew I how many I had done, I was unsure as I had posted quite a lot about the early wifi issues when Spring crippled the original rom but I was also posting in the Moto owners forum and could not remember how many posts I had done in this forum.
Any way, will update if I think there is anything else useful to add/ask. I just love the openness of Android, especially compared to the iPhone, its just so great that someone may download the source and port it to a device such as what Joker and the others helping him out did, so now we have ICS on a very powerful and capable device. As much as Jobs may have had all sorts of issues with similarities between Android and iOS, we have more use from it and "like" google better from it (without spending crap loads of money on one of like only 2 devices available, we just have soooo much choice;-)

Ok, so I understand that editing the file line above (/system/builld.prop , line ro.telephony.....) to 0 instead of 7 sets the network as WCDMA prefered (it even says so in the file just above the line you edit).
When dialing *#*#4636#*#*, I see GSM auto (PRL) instead of WCDMA prefered even after reboot.
It seems that the system is not reading that part of the build.prop file or its being over ridden by something else, how can I troubleshoot?
It stays on GSM auto (PRL) even if I change it in the dialer, exit and then type the code back into the dialer.
Have you tried relishing from scratch? & start from cm9 0.1.0 2d not 0.2.0 . I say that because when I first tried cm9 I started from cm9 0.2.0 and I had lots of problems and battery drains fast but then I clean everything off and redone it from cm9 0.1.0 2d note everything is working like it should even better . Hope you getting going...

If I remember what was said in the cm9 thread you have to edit build.prop from the zip, and then flash, not edit after flash or it doesn't work.

Sounds like the other guys have you helped with the FC portion, but nobody has addressed the first complaint. You're currently showing as having 5 posts to me when I look at your profile, so it's not alleged you're under 10 posts, you are under 10 posts. The word "allegedly" implies you disagree with that post count and if so, I'd suggest contacting an admin to have it looked into. I don't spend too much time on XDA so unfortunately I don't know who (specifically) to suggest you contact.
Hope you get it all sorted out! Cheers!
post count
ya the to little post count thing is semi wack. i understand why its there, but i deff still feel you pain. I have been a avid reader of most everything mopho related since about October, but am not much of a poster until not i guess
voicemail
I have ics on my mopho but Im not getting any voicemails. When I get a call and it goes to voicemail i receive a text that says I have received a voicemail and to call a weird number. When I do sometimes it asks me if I have a new phone with voicemail and sometimes its just a busy tone. Is anyone else having this problem?

How do you edit files in the zip? Im trying to replace the APNS file but i cant delete the old one. When I unzip it, replace the file, then rezip it, the file fails to flash. Any suggestions?

Did you have to fix MMS on yours. I've tried the fixes but I still can't get it working.

Why would you ask that in a Photon forum?
