[Q] MIUI Wifi Issue - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Ok still having this issue; posted in the MIUI/WIUI thread in development but thought I'd try here too. Had the problem on WIUI and MIUI.us from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486391, using the KH7, KJ4, and KK6 modems. When I go from mobile data to wifi, everything works fine. In my testing today, when I leave it alone for 11-15 minutes without use (leaning more towards the 15 minute time, had it happen once at 11) and turn it back on (with wifi still on), I cannot use the internet at all. I have to turn off the wifi and wait for mobile data to kick back in and it works. Also tried turning wifi off, waiting about 10 seconds while mobile data started back up and flipped the wifi back on again and it works fine. Never had this problem until now (first time using MIUI on this phone). I may have to go to CM7 or a "stock" ROM but really enjoying the MIUI niceties so hoping to figure this out.

This worked for me with WIUI
Here's what I found android.modaco.com/topic/346587-miui-data-fix-and-wifi-solution/

Was that directed at me?? I originally asked in the Dev thread, no answers so figured the Q/A is best, am I wrong?

What problem does this actually fix? I know the static IP won't work on my home network, not sure of the one at work, but if I have to assign a static IP I might as well just toggle it off and on, though that itself is annoying enough to leave MIUI (and that says alot because I have refallen in love with it since my Captivate days)

Yes, you are. Do NOT double post; it fills up the board, and is against the rules.

WiFi Won't Disconnect Issue

Hey guys, I'm new here so let me know if Im messing up any board rules or customs!
I did a quick search but didn't hit on any exact results... I connect to my home or work WiFi without any drops (which is a whole other situation) but once I leave the range of the WiFi network my EVO doesn't realize and stays connected which means I won't get emails because there is no active connection... So far my only fix has been to turn my WiFi on and off again.. is anybody else seeing this?
It's not the end of the world just a minor nuisance! Im set to auto frequency, best performance and always keep WiFi on during sleep. I feel like that last one might be the issue but I don't want to go to 3G on standby!
Thanks

I have read about some other people having the same issue here. Wifi as a whole is very glitchy on this device right now and hopefully fixes will be part og hts's fist update.
I am experiencing the same issue. Would love to know how to resolve it.
Sent from my EVO using XDA
I'm also experiencing this. It is slightly annoying, but not a deal breaker. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon enough.
Mine does this as well, but goes a step further. Once I leave the Wifi area I can toggle Wifi off to drop the connection and use 3G. However, when I go back to a wifi area, any network ive previously connected to states not in range. I can pick up new networks, but not existing networks. The only solution is to reboot the device.
Is something the HTC set for battery saving, what happens when you connected to wifi with any device is that it check every 60-90-180seconds (wherever the programmer set) so your phone won't check right away, but when it does it will disconnect, every phone has it but probably HTC put up a high number that way it saves more battery

This is starting to get quite frustrating. If I leave the house and need to use navigation or anything requiring data I have to toggle wifi off. Has anyone figured this out or is it potentially a hardware issue where I should seek a replacement?
I made a thread about returning my EVO for another one. I had the same issue. The second EVO is working perfect so far. Way better battery life with this one too.

Were you by chance also having issues with MMS downloading? I really like the phone but some of these little quirks are starting to annoy me.
Anyone else having this problem? I haven't seen a fix or any other posts which makes Mr think this may be a device issue. Thanks for any help.

Anyone else with this?
I flashed the OTA today hoping it would rectify and it has not. I am rooted, s-off, TWRP so my options are open for mods but don't know what to look for here. Anyone, anyone? :fingers-crossed:

I'm having the same issue, but with an international One X. It didn't happen initially, but after flashing various ROMs it seems to have started happening.

I spoke with HTC yesterday and they were not aware of a widespread issue with this. When I get more time I will dig into it a bit more as I believe it can probably be fixed with mods to wpa_supplicant. In the meantime, I will be sending some logs to HTC as well.

It's definitely software-based, as it didn't happen with MaXimus 2.1 or CM10, but DOES happen with MaXimus 2.2 and the stock ROM. Oddly, it never happened with the stock ROM before now.
Does it happen to you on more than one WiFi network?

It happens on every wifi network I've been on - private home networks, work networks, and open networks. It doesn't always fail to switch but 90% is too high for me.

[Q] Time without signal

Hey everyone. I searched the forums but couldn't find any info. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing 100% time without signal since updating to ICS? I never had this problem with GB. I'm on Telus if that helps at all.

Mine said the same thing when I would sleep at night. Are you connected to Wifi the whole time? If so, go into the wifi settings and tell it to stay running while in sleep mode etc etc.

Telus doesn't use wifi calling, so the two interrupting each other is less likely.

same here (stock s-on ota update). nothing to worry about, as it's a software glitch. previous versions of android had this glitch as well.

That's what I kinda figured. Of course, the Telus support insisted it was something with my phone and not a result of the OTA. Gotta love those guys.
Please keep all question related threads in the Q&A section. Thank You.

why my amaze can't see my wifi???

my amaze takes about 4-5minutes to find and connect my wifi i've tried about 5or 6 roms and every one of them happens the same thing.....
but recently i've tried the fastamaze and the nightmare one and my wifi is detected within 0.5 seconds and i can connect to it....if someone has any ideas on why this happens please tell me!

It's a stock bug, once the devs get a good foothold in the ICS foundation, it's gonna be fixed, just a little patience for now, k?
yeah ok but why the nightmare rom and the fastamaze rom work flawlessly , the wifi that is... they're on ics too.?

Yeah but you see the difference is, most of the roms are stock based, therefore the bug is still there, nightmare and fastamaze on the other hand had to be built from the ground up when it came to hardware things like wifi, so until the guys have some source to work with or have the time to make their fixes from those roms workable on stock, it's gonna be a little glitchy.
i wonder why the phone can see all my neighbors wifi except mine it takes like 5minutes!?

try changing your wireless security type on your router. WPA personal AES works well for me.
I mistakenly deleted my nandroid of my original stock shipped ics rom. When i try to go back to stock with one of the stock roms listed, any wifi is detected but will not connect. Goes through the authenticating and obtaining ip address and juststrats over. I can use energy rom and no problem.

I guess the glitch seems to be worse for you than normal, not much I can say unless someone pulls the files from energy and make a flashable for your phone.

I'm using NRG and the stock ICS radio, and my WiFi connects within a few seconds. Connects instantly, but takes a few seconds to acquire IP addresses & etc.
I think I have the same issue...
I just flashed CM10 onto my Transformer Prime & I'm experiencing the same issue that you describe; the device can see each & every WiFi network in the neighborhood except mine. Please forgive my ignorance but I am not familiar with your device; is it running Jellybean? Your post came up in a Google search that I did re my problem & your post is the closest to describing my problem. Sorry if I am barking up the wrong tree but I've been pulling my hair out trying to sort this one out so any clue would be a massive help to me at this stage.

Just updated to ICS from stock system/rom and having issues...

Alright so I've never rooted my phone or done anything fancy with it as far as that goes. Recently the ICS update was released and I didn't update right away, wasn't sure how bad it would mess up my current settings etc. After reading that it retained all my settings and functionality I decided to upgrade. Ok so first off I can't Tether anymore and my portable wifi hotspot does not work either, I'm on Rogers and in Canada, never heard of 'tethering plans' such as other people refer to with AT&T. I have my 4g enabled, can retrieve internet access, and as soon as I turn on my portable hotspot my phone is unable to access the 4g anymore, It enables a wifi hotspot but anything that connects to it gets limited connectivity and can't access the internet either. It's like the phone just shuts it off automatically. I used to use this all the time and was one of my favorite features about my phone.. If I'm unable to use this I don't even want the data plan that I currently have, the data plan I decided on DUE to this feature.. So I'm gonna be pretty pissed off if this amazing little update is trying to force me to pay for something that I already pay extra to utilize properly.
I could be wrong here but I'm pretty damn sure that the battery life has dropped by close to 20% I can watch the percentage go down while I'm doing stuff and it seems to be losing life a lot quicker now, and I noticed that after the first day of using ICS. The resolution on the unlock screen seems to be botched, It's very squished... My old version never did this, and it's kind of annoying for my background images and having the clock looking out of whack.
I'm not sure what to do, there doesn't seem to be an update and as far as I know the update has been out for awhile now, why hasn't this stuff been fixed, who can I make official complaints to as far as Samsung or Rogers goes? I've checked these forums a bit and people seem to be having a lot of issues, some similar to mine some not, some I may have just had the luck to avoid so far. Is factory reset the only real option to fix things, and will that even help my tethering issues?
Anyone? :\
Is there a way to revert back to the old version?
There's a definite increase in battery drain while the device is just sitting there with the screen turned off doing nothing and the tethering thing is really annoying...

Hysterics, yeah, same issue here. Waited for ICS update before I decided to go custom. So I just updated last week and have noticed faster battery drain and my hotspot no longer works.
It blanks out and after 30 seconds it gives you a message "Unfortunately Settings Has Stopped"
How master resets have you done?
I haven't done it yet, but I've heard a multiple master reset may fix the problem.
It's just doing a reset is a pain in the arse!
Yes,
there is a return to stock option for you...it can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
Read, read, read....
This method "will" return you to factory state. And you must read the entire thread, and follow the links to get a working device again.
hope this helps you.....g

Just noticed this thread is a month old....And you likely have a solution by now.
Now posted for future reference.
OP, if you see this, and meet with success, please place the word "solved" in the thread title.
It will steer other users to your solution, and help keep the threads clean.
Thank you !!....g
For me what stinks besides the battery and hotspot everything else seems to work great.
Just hate to have to go through the master reset for one issue. As opposed if I had sevral issues.
But it is what it is I guess!

What "it is" is that OTA upgrades to ICS are problematic.
I'd prefer flashing ICS directly through Odin using a stock ROM from samfirmware.com

[Q] t0lte GPS issue

I've tried 8 different roms, different kernels, searched "the google" and as much of these forums as I could... My GPS on my t0lte (vzw Note II) will not receive any satellites.

with this patch, most GPS using apps FC, the rest just sow that GPS is turned off.
I've been through all the settings, twice because I hate looking like an idiot, I'll test anything you got, give you any info you need to try to get this fixed!
