Is anyone else having a hard time sending SMS over wifi calling, it sends extremely slow, sometimes takes over 3 minutes to send one text, sometimes goes right thru, it's not signal strength I'm 3 feet from my router and it works perfectly for everything else including sending SMS, it's just random sometimes I disable wifi calling then re enable it and it works as intended.
Anyone having same issue? Is there any fix, I'm running latest energy paired with faux 007.

I haven't had any issues with the Wi-Fi calling. No, that's a lie. I haven't experienced your issue though. My Wi-Fi calling is always telling me "Poor Signal" when the indicator is full and I have to make calls at most 10 feet away from the router or they drop. Faux does have a new kernel version out though, you could try flashing it. It could also be your ROM.

Anyone else seeing this so far? The connection says it's strong with 59mb connection but downloads from the store run roughly 8kbps and don't even think about watching netflix or streaming music. I'm on an N router with WPA2 psk encryption. i'm going to tinker with the different encryption options and see if no encryption changes my results but i'm not optimistic about that. thanks for any help.
zero security = no change in speeds.
I noticed some intermittent connectivity issues -- signal strength went down to nothing, then full again. I was sitting only about 8 feet away from my 2Wire g-router.
Mine works great try reflashing if that doesn't fix it doctor your web os part then reflash I was having issues and it fixed mine
It's normal and a known issue.
Encryption doesn't matter, had problems on open wifi and wpa2-psk wifi, had problems with 5ghz wifi as well. It worked, then it didn't. Wifi settings froze the TP.
Boot into webos and everything works fine.
Mine is super fast, usually 1,5-2MB/s on Android market. I don't use any encryptions, but MAC filter
I really haven't had any wifi issues, Definitely haven't noticed a decrease in speed. The only problem I've had is swapping from one network to the next, It will cycle between connecting and searching. If I just turn off wifi and turn it back on it will connect fine.

Every once in awhile after the pad has been sleeping, upon wake i have to toggle Wifi off then on...then it continues working as usual.
Other than that, has been normal operating speed for me.
So I have my Fascinate running CM7 with the Glitch Kernel, no OC, just for the stock UV, the problem I have is that I can connect to WiFi, everything seems fine and then a few minutes later everything stops loading, as if there was no connection. turning off WiFi and turning it back on helps about 80% of the time but still an issue, the reason this is so big is that at my house we have no reception at all, Verizon sent us a Network Extender but it simply does not work on any phone and I know for a fact that my Network is fine. (We have twin N600s one routing one access point) Additionally the issue is at the local college as well. Any help? Is there an issue with CM7 or the Glitch kernel?
I am having the exact same problem. For example, market will stick at "Loading..." while on wifi but when I turn wifi off, my 3g connection will load market fine. It's so weird because I have full wifi signal and it is definitely not my router. It didn't start until I flashed the glitch kernel. Has to be something there. Maybe there is a workaround?
Im running glitch v13 and wifi works great. sometimes after a reboot ill have to toggle it off/on...

I had that Market problem and it disappeared when I got a new router. A full reset/wipe of router may have fixed it also. Happened on 2 CM7 phones (Droid2 and Fascinate), but not a stock 2.3 Droid2.
On my CM7 Fascinate, I usually also have to toggle wifi after reboot.
I'm having an issue that has been bothering me. I run Etrade Pro with streaming data and charts, and when I leave my home, it does not automatically cut the wifi and switch to LTE or 4g. My app stops and says there is no data. This has happened a lot and I wonder if there are some settings that need to assure that mt cell signal automatically kicks in when Wifi cuts out.
ANother problem is that if I approach an area where there is wifi, the phone connects, and i usually get a data issue again.
I also got the same problem when i stream a video while on wifi and then leave the wifi zone, so I know it is not an Etrade app specific problem,
Any advice would be appreciated. What I am having to do is manually shut off wifi and then restart the app when the 4g kicks in, and I know the phone is designed to handle this for me.

I'm not sure this is something we have control over, I was reading over a white paper qualcomm wrote on the matter: http://www.qualcomm.com/media/documents/files/3g-wifi-seamless-offload.pdf
Our phone is 3GPP R8 however, I'm not sure at&t's network supports dual stack mobile IP, so therefor the handoff between wifi and 3g would have to interrupt data.
WHat bothers me is that I just came from an Iphone4 and the iPhone switched from wifi to cell, and my Etrade App kept running. There may have been a momentary lag, but i didn't have to close the app and start it again.
Let me look into it more when I get home. At work youtube is blocked on the company network so I can't test if a video continues between handover here.
WHen I leave my home and know that I am out of wifi range, I still see the wifi symbol on the home screen but it looks like there are no bars of strength. It's like the thing is still trying to draw data through wifi that is well out of range.
Frustrating.

So if the wifi symbol is on the status bar that means the phone is still connected to the wifi (or at least thinks it is).
I was not able to reproduce your problem with youtube when I was home. I started a video on wifi in my home, and then walked out the front door and down the hall until it lost the connection, the wifi symbol disappeared and it just had to re-buffer a little bit after it switched to LTE then the video continued.
Having problems with Wifi streaming and YouTube very slow, stop and start every few seconds, got to be the phone as all my other devices stream fine. I have unchecked avoid poor connections in wifi advanced.
Any one else having this problem, will try factory reset.

I've seen factory resets cure a few problems on here so try that 1st but isn't there a .69 firmware available now as well, maybe try that to?

Good old factory reset and it's working fine.....hasn't. Worked
EDIT.......wifi speeds are slow again, can't watch YouTube or stream films, it's only on this device, ipad 2, galaxy s3 and s2 all stream with no problems.
Can't download the 6 free promo films either as download fails after a short while.

My facebook app is not working great in my phone. Youtube has been fine so far but I find my internet quite slow at home as I have rubbish internet speed. Also in peak times I get very slow internet connection.
Wifi speed still slow, only on this device,
Also is the . 69 firmware carrier specific?
No firmware update prompt on my phone.
no option for 5GHz in wifi advanced menu
Sent from my D6503
A couple of things to try:
* test with other access points
* restarting the router
* disconnecting other devices
* forgetting the network on the z2 and readding it
I actually got great wifi speeds with my z2. It was even able to max out a 100 Mbps cable broadband connection on an AC router. Worked fine in n-mode also.

Have you tested on any other networks?
Take a trip to Starbucks! See if you get any better speeds there (and a nice latte, damn I'd kill for one right now).
glas to see im not the only one. Google Play Store @ 0.02mb/s
What kind of router do you have and how far is it? I'm able to maintain 2-3MB/s (16-24Mbit/s) over a distance of 20 feet with walls and everything in between.
After getting my phone last Tuesday ive noticed this little bug as well, sometimes downloading/updating google play apps it'll be like 0.5MB/sec but usually when I use drop down menu and quick settings and turn off wifi(give it about 10/20secs) then reactivate it im back to around 8-14Mb/sec, some apps dont even show a download progress its that fast lol.
I believe it might be a 5Ghz wifi problem as my BT hub shows my phone connecting to 5GHz channel with no way to stop it apart from turning 5Ghz off at the router :/
So hopefully sony will either fix bug or give us more wifi options like already mentioned so we can make phone connect to what we want.
K stand corrected phone can/does switch between 2.4Ghz/5Ghz, router shows phone connected at 2.4Ghz now. Just updated an app while connected on 2.4Ghz and no problem.
Z2 D6503 Wifi dropping issues
I seem to be getting the same sort of wifi issues as previously stated. I cannot hold a wifi connection on the 2.4ghz band fro more than 20s before its dissociated (ie i still have full connection to the router (3 bars) but cannot get through to the internet). This happens no matter what router i am connected to, whether its at home or at work.
I have tried:
Setting the Wifi optimization checkbox off. No difference
Avoid poor connections is off. No difference.
Stamina mode is off. No difference.
Keep Wifi on during sleep is set to Always. No difference.
Sleep timeout to 30mins. No difference.
I have factory reset the phone. No difference.
I have also check to see if it is my router at home. I have switched between every channel available which made no difference. Security is Wpa/Wpa2 PSK AES which makes no difference. I only have the 2.4ghz available on that router at home (same at work).
My Note 3 and HTC One connect to both routers with no problems at all and do not drop out. Same goes with Sony Vaio Laptop.
I have installed Wifi Fixer on my Z2 to see if it can alleviate the problem and it does somewhat. instead of manually having to turn on and off the wifi toggle to reestablish a connection, the Wifi Fixer does it for me.Approx. every 20-30s in its log it will show the phone "dissociating" from the router, and the the app tries to "reassociate" the connection.
I can connect through wifi transfer to my Note 3 without issue, and the same goes for my TV, so it cant be a hardware fault, as the connection is still excellent strength for both (as well as the router, tested with Wifi Analyzer). This is a very frustrating problem as it makes watching youtube movies impossible, and hotspotting, skype calls, etc.....
And dont even get me started on the bluetooth dropouts. I am disconnected from a bluetooth connection every 66-70s without fail no matter what i try. No issues with my Note 3 and HTC One in the exact same conditions. It will disconnect then reconnect straight away with a delay of about 3 seconds, which makes calls and listening to music a VERY unpleasant experience.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I love everything else on this phone but this wifi/bluetooth connection issue is making it unusable.
connecting to my bt home hub 4 via 5GHz band only has solved my wifi drop out problems.

For me slow Wifi resulted in many issues, You-tube video cannot be played, video streaming from a network storage cannot be done, Facebook videos will stop at the middle etc where the most evident issues. I tried everything possible to resolve this issues and searching the internet also didn't help. Finally decided to fresh install, used PC companion and re-installed the complete software, then restored all apps using google backup service. After this there is no issue till now. The software version is the same I had before reinstall. But now the Video streaming and apps using internet become very responsive.
thanks

I've noticed if I'm making a Wi-Fi call and walk away from the router, the call drops when it should seamlessly switch to 4G
I have a strong 4G signal outside the house, so it makes no sense, has anyone else noticed this?
Have you switched off Mobile Data Always Active in developer settings. That may make a difference.

Nope, that's still enabled.
I've noticed this as well. There's been several times that if I leave my wifi with wifi calling enabled to mobile data, I cannot make or receive phone calls until I turn on airplane mode and reset the connections. Super frustrating

Mine just cuts off and can call back again so not quite the same.
Same here, the radio on this phone is a disaster for many of us.
