wifi 4G Tether Disconnects - Motorola Photon 4G

Not sure if any folks having same issue, but my Photon keeps disconnecting and sometimes rebooted after running wifi router on 4G. Everything will be fine then 15 or 30 mins later the connection drops and I am booted off line. I have to then rerun the app.
I am using beta 7 with Nexus setting. I want this to stop.

[Q] Bamf 3.0 RC3 Wifi sleeping

Just installed this ROM yesterday, came from Liquid gingersense 1.2
I did the 3x Wipe data/cache/dalvik/batt stats
When I'm on Wifi and when my phone goes to sleep, background data is not working. When I wake the phone up, I see the Wifi symbol go completely gray and then back to normal. I'm not getting emails when the phone is sleeping and on Wifi. Did not have this issue with Liquid Gingersense.
any ideas? My Wifi sleep policy is set to never. I've set my email to sync via Push during peak and non peak hours.
TIA
Bump. I've been having the same issue as well. It could be kernel related as HTC has not released the source code yet for GB. But that's just my guess.
well i tried the Gingeritis ROM and wifi sleep mode does not block data....for some reason the BAMF ROMS on my phone causes this issue
Which kernel are you using? I've seen this happen to lean 3.3.4, but not lean 3.01
Edit: I was ok for a bit on 3.01, but it's happening again. Oh well, I guess I'm keeping 3g on all the time now.
Wifi sleeping when screen is off
I have the same issue that everyone else reports. I've seen it on BAMF 3.0 RC3 as well as 2.1 Gingerremix. I'm not sure, but I'm thinking it's kernel related since I never had the issue on 2.0 remix betas and I believe the kernel changed from the 2.0 betas to the 2.1. Can anyone confirm? I'm hoping it's not lose-lose since only the last few kernel releases fix the slow charge bug....

Gingerbread WIFI!!!???

FIXED: check out post #17
I didn't think posting this in each GB Rom thread and kernel thread would be appropriate so I'm starting here. Thanks in advance for any feedback!
Okay......After doing countless and wasted hours of searching and coming up empty handed, why is it that only a few of us are having the WIFI issue on the Gingerbread ROMs? It doesn't matter which ROM I use as soon as the screen cuts off, BAM, no WIFI or 3G data. And yes WIFI sleep policy is set to never and I've tried turning on Better WIFI performance and I've even tried every kernal out there, nothing works. FROYO ROMs are working fine so it's got to be either the Gingerbread ROMs or the Kernels.
Either way I'm okay with the issue not working (yet) and I understand that HTC hasn't released the source for the GB Kernel yet. All I would like is some clarification from the people that build these ROMs and Kernels that the WIFI is not working yet. I understand if you're in a 4G area, after all 4G is much faster than the WIFI anyway but for those of us not in a 4G area yet WIFI is king when at home or at work. So if the developers are using 4G constantly I understand the WIFI neglect, but I really don't think it's the developers. These guys are too smart to let something like that slide by! Can someone shed some light on the issue? Thanks again in advance!
This is not an issue with the leaked GB roms themselves or the latest kernels, because the wifi is working great for most people.
It is going to be helpful if you list which rom, kernel, and radio you are using. I did have a similar problem one time, my wifi was going to sleep when the screen turned off and went idle.
It had been working fine but I tried to take a shortcut and reflash the rom without wiping data because it was the same rom. After attempting that which was a bad idea but more of an experiment/learning session for me, I had exactly the problem that you stated.
After wiping my phone properly and flashing the rom, the problem was gone.
I have been running BAMF sence 3.0 with the MR2 radio. I tried MR2.5 and had some different small issues, MR2 has been working Great. Currently with BAMF 3.0 RC 3, the MR2 rom and the latest dreamKernel, everything is running perfectly, at least everything I use or thought of using.
The background data is extremely important for me because I communicate exclusively with my girlfriends using IM services such as gtalk with Trillian. So I wouldn't be able to run gingerbread if it wasn't working REALLY good.
Here's the thread that I use often as a resource. It discusses some issues similar to what you are dealing with, and is update very regularly
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086518
I'm having an identical issue to the OP. Running BAMF GingerREMIX 2.1, Imoseyon's 3.3.8GBTest+ , MR2 radio.
Wifi just disconnects when screen is off. When I turn the screen on, i can see the wifi indicator is all black (similar to no bars). Once it's on for a second or two, it lights up again, and I get whatever notifications I missed due to no data(email, etc).
Ive done the 3x data, cache, and dalvik wipe before flashing the ROM and before flashing the Kernel. It's absolutely DESTROYING my battery life. Since noticing the problem, i've re-wiped and re-flashed everything, didn't help.
Thanks for the response...I'm stumped then because I have tried every combination of kernal/ROM that is available out of the Gingerbread leaks. I recently last night tried BAMF Sense 3.0 RC3 and GINGERTH3ORY V4.5.1 and BAMF 2.1 Remix again along with both MR2 and MR2.5 radios. Nothing worked so I went back to the reliable Perfect Storm 1.5 ROM and left my radio at MR2.5
Any suggestions? Thanks for the help!

I'm having no issues with gingeritis 1.0 (Not the 3D Alpha), and lean kernel 3.4.0. Did you try those?

I did try the gingeritis 1.0 3D with dreamkernel but not lean. Maybe I'll give that a shot this evening but I'm not holding my breath...lol I've tried almost everything and known combinations that are working for others and all the wipes I can muster, nothing is working.
Okay I've been trying Gingeritis 1.0 3d with the lean kernel for a few hours hours now. When my screen turns off I will receive emails for a few minutes but then I stop receiving them until I wake the the phone up. Once i wake the phone up i start receiving messages likevi just turned it on from a good nights sleep. Does anyone know what's going on?

I've actually had this problem also ever since i moved to the Gingerbread. When the screen turns off and i turn it back off after awhile, the WiFi seems like it was sleeping the entire time. I get all my notifications when i turn the screen back on. And i do believe this has been killing my battery life a bit. I have wiped before i flashed. I tried it with the original GB radio/MR2/MR2.5. I've flash different kernels. Wifi sleep is set to never.
Note: I tried running an app such as Pandora on while the screen was off and only in situations like this the WiFi doesn't have the problem.
tethering is ****ed up as well in gb, screen off, no tether, screen on and everything is okay. personally i think that something is ****ed up at the kernel, i switched back to froyo and problems went away.
For the record.....if I set wifi sleep policy to never when plugged in I still receive notifications instantly but it's through 3G because when I wake the phone 3g is active instead of wifi.

This is something I've brought up before too, but nobody addresses it because there probably isn't an answer about a whether it's the kernel or rom. I've just come to terms that I can't use wifi. For those who are suggesting we didn't clear data appropriately, that's not the issue. Most of us who have this wifi problem have been determined enough to try multiple clean installs to get to the bottom of this issue.

Shall I throw another quirk into our problem?............... I flashed CM7.1 RC1 early this morning. This is the best ROM I've put on my TBolt yet. WIFI seems to be working flawlessly except for right after the initial install it wouldn't download anything, through browser or even open the market. After a reboot, I'm going strong. I am receiving messages and data when phone's screen is off. I'm beginning to think that it might be a Sense 3.0 problem....any thoughts from the peanut gallery?
The problem with GB is that it is not official. The ROM is not final (or has been ported from a different phone), kernel is not final, and neither is the radio. We shouldn't be surprised that a lot of features don't work properly. Now cyanogen do their own Roms and kernels basically from scratch, and maybe that is why it's working. GB was fun to have, but i just switched to Froyo for faster 4g speeds, ability to tether properly and better battery life. I'll wait for the proper GB before switching again.
Yeah not Gingeritis 3d but the normal version.... I've noticed also that it seems settings don't change, Like I have turned off Haptic feedback yet still get it when i type on the keyboard, and still get weather sounds with the sounds turned off. This is every time I flash even with 5 wipes. Settings don't seem to stick.

For the keyboard not turning off haptic feedback, you have to go to the settings in the keyboard to disable it. Settings->Language and Keyboard->Touch Input->Text Input->Uncheck Vibrate While Typing.
WI FI Alternative
And I thought I was the only one having problems with wifi tether on gingeritis 3D. I posted a question in a different forum but no one answered me. So after trying different versions of wireless tether I found one that is working perfectly for me. It is wireless tether v2.0.5. I've been using it for 2 days with no issues and phone screen doesn't have to be on. Now, this may not work for everybody, like I said I tried different versions until I found the right one.
Here is the link: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
I hope this helps some of you.
Okay.......!!!!!!!! Thanks to the folks over at theMikMik.com (akaGingeritis ROMs) forums I now have working WiFi with the Gingeritis ROMs. Just download Advanced WiFi Lock from the Marketplace and set it up and you're good to go! Now that wasn't hard was it guys/gals? I've been looking for an answer for so long I can't even remember when I started....oh wait it was the first day that Gingerbread were available by these great developers!!!! Sorry, I didn't mean to vent, I'm not mad just very excited that now I can enjoy these Gingerbread ROMs. So everyone else that's having problems with the WiFi staying connected, download Advanced WiFi Lock from the Marketplace and get your Ginger on!
So is that the free version, or the paid version? You're finding that your WiFi now says connected even if the phone is sleeping? To do some more testing, I fully charged my phone, turned on my WiFi, and connected to my home wireless for 5 hours, just let the phone sit. Used 50% of my battery. Next day, same thing, but had WiFi off, 4g on. 5 hours later, used 15% of battery. Pretty sucky that I can't use my TB on my own home network.

I'm using the free version as the paid doesn't offer any extra features I needed. I left my phone connected to WiFi all night idle, about 7.5 hours, and only used 13% of battery and received all messages. I can't test on 4G so please provide feedback for others.

Not so lucky. Downloaded and installed advanced WiFi lock. Connected to my home wireless and see the same exact results. WiFi just sucking battery. Still draining at about 10% an hour on WiFi and about 3% an hour on 4g. I'm so confused over this, how is WiFi draining battery more than 4g? Phone isn't even usable on WiFi. Checking battery usage stats as noticed that the phone is constantly awake when WiFi is on.

Desire HD keeps turning off! LeeDroid V3.3.1

I've been running LeeDroid V3.3.3 for about a month or two (been a LeeDroid user since the V2 days, a good 10-12 months) with no issues.
However, recently my Desire HD just keeps turning itself off. Sometimes, I'd get by with no problems in a day, other times it'll just turn itself off like 10 times in 5 minutes. Everytime I turn it off, it boots up and when everything is loaded – it would just turn off without warning.
I thought it was a battery issue but I took the "battery cover" off and held the battery in, as in literally pushed it in and booted the phone but still it turned off like 10 seconds after booting up.
Is there anything I can do to get this fixed? It's so freaking annoying.
There are times literally when I can't use it, just gets caught in a 'turning off cycle' and won't snap out of it.
It's currently running a freshly installed copy of LeeDroid V3.2.1 because I thought trying a different version would work, as the ROM is buggy but this didn't help. I tried several versions that I knew worked perfectly. This is literally a fresh copy; haven't even imported my contacts at the moment.
help anyone?
Is your processor overclocked? If it is, then is it at a stable speed? Also, have you tried flashing a new rom (not some other version of the same rom)? Or have you tried flashing a new kernel?
I installed SetCPU again to see what the clocked stats were;
Min: 245mhz
Max: 760mhz
As far as I know that's within a stable range..
I haven't tried flashing a new ROM, because I thought LeeDroid was the most stable.. any ones you recommend? I actually haven't flashed anything but LeeDroid.
The latest update for LeeDroid was done via Rom Manager Premium which allowed the installation of the BFS Kernel. When I used to do it manually, I always kept the stock Kernel because there was a high risk of bricking the phone.
Phones currently on;
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-LeeDroid-Ace-GB-3.2.0 BFS-g14a52b4
ROM: LeeDroid HD V3.2.1_GB
Baseband: 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Android Version: 2.3.3 / HTC Sense Version: 2.1
try android revolution by mike 1986. keep us updated on what will happen.
isn't 700mhz underclocked?

I would recommend Android Revolution HD found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040 . This should (hopefully) fix your problem. Report the results .

Yes. 700Mhz is underclocked.
I am about to try Android Rev.
What's the best method to keep it at a stable clock speed? Which program/method and what IS a stable clock speed?
Thanks guys, I appreciate your comments on this!
UPDATE: After several attempts of trying to download the ROM (kept timing out) - I've managed to get the ROM and the recommended radio flashed successfully!
Shall keep you guys posted on the developments ahead
Works a treat! It tried to shut down again - but unlike LeeDroid, the Android Revolution HD rom warned me that the sim card has come loose and gave me two options; turn off or restart.
I just turned it off, and gave the SIM card slot/area a good clean (it was quite dusty) and now, 2 days without it shutting down! Quite an improvement from like 15-20 times an hour
Thanks alot guys! The new Android Revolution HD ROM is so muchhh better too! I love it!

I just had something similar but instead of the simcard I just removed my sdcard while rebooting and waited a couple of minutes after boot before I inserted my sdcard back in. My phone was turning off every 5min, now after 8 hours he still didn't turn off.

[Q] Best radio for AT&T Atrix on ICS?

Running turl v8 build ICS on AT&T radio N_01.77.37P.
Got a couple of issues I can't seem to find others reporting, wondering whether its my radio (should I downgrade to 36P or other?).
- wireless hotspot will automatically turn itself off as soon as its turned on. So unusable.
- Sometimes when turning on navigation, I'll lose all mobile data (navigation of course then fails as it can't grab directions). Resolve by turning airport mode on and off again.
any others running Turl ICS build on my radio seeing same issues?
EDIT: Confirmed issue with that radio and turl v8, downgrade to N_01.77.36P fixed it. I didn't immediately realise it was the radio as I was already running 37P when I flashed turl.
best radio?
Are the radio specific to network or are they generic and one fits all model?
I upgraded to 37P soon as it was available and went back to 36P after a couple of days of data connectivity issues and funky website and app data problems. Been fine since I went back to 36P. Dunno what they changed. Wifi and data speed tests seemed the same, but connectivity was balked up. Been running 36P for a long time with all ROM's and no issues with it.
I have been on 37p for a few weeks. Without using edge or 3g my battery lasts 2 days and maybe 12 more hours if i dont use it too much.
But im on nottachtrix, while i was on cm9 it did a day or so just like any other regular android.

Viper4G 2.02
liberty kernel v1.10
hboot 1.19 S-off
I'm having issues as well. Just went to re-flash CM10 on my wife's phone. I did it a couple months ago and she's been having some random reboots and funny issues with the screen so I thought a wipe and re-flash would be a quick fix. Did factory reset, wiped Dalvik, flashed superwipe, then CM10 (nightly from 11/17), then gapps and when CM10 came up it wouldn't connect to my data network and would not turn on my wifi - so I can't get any connection.
Just retried with the latest stable build (11/13) and having the same issue.
---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 AM ----------
I think my issue is S-on... didn't realize that I would need to get S-off again with the wiping but it looks like there is now a better method for me as her phone is hboot 1.15 (dirty racun). So, I'm off to try that now...
