Facebook messenger has a very bad connection (cm9) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I got a problem with the facebook messenger. I am on latest cm9 nightly and siyah 4.1rc1.
The messenger has an extremely bad connection over mobile network, but works good on wifi. Now the joke is: Nothing else has any problems with my mobile network. Only messenger behaves like a douche. I do not understand why it works on wifi, but not mobile network.... although mobile network itelf seems totally ok!
It seems as if the messenger doesn't "trigger" the mobile connection. In the notification bar I see the 3g icon going to H, but then no stable connection gets established (arrows for up- and downstream do weird things) and it switches back to 3g - thats it.
I don't know what to do, I switched RIL and modems, but nothing helped! So any tips are very welcome :good:

Sounds like it's the app itself. Try submitting a bug report to the app creator.

Facebook might be popular but their apps are very terrible when it comes to connection. Sometimes, while using facebook messenger, you will think your connection is bad until you open your browser and everything just works as normal.
it's the app's problem

No network connection available?

Sometimes when I run an app, I get informed that thee is no internet connection and I can't launch the app, even though it clearly says I'm on 3g. This actually happens frequently kinda, like when I run the YouTube or livescores app. Has anyone experienced this?

I may be trying to get the feed from Wifi. Turn off the wifi just to make sure.
Hi.
My apps complain when they are using the wifi network, don't have a problem on EDGE though...
None of my apps, except the browser, can access internet while using wifi. If someone can help me fix this, I will really appreciate that... This problem is giving me a real headache...
Thanks.

[Q] Exchange sync problem - only syncs over 3g, not WiFi

As the topic says my HMJ37 P7500XKWG9 will not sync (or even connect) to exchange over wifi.
Using stock email app with Exchange 2010.
As soon as I switch wifi off, sync starts working. This only happens with the stock app, everything else works perfectly fine over both wifi and 3g.
Multiple wipes and resets did not help.
I am thinking this is a bug in samsung software but would like to hear if anyone else has this problem before I start flashing random other firmware versions...
Is your Exchange server on the same network as your wi-fi connetion? Sounds like you have a networking problem.

It's not a networking problem.

You didn't answer my question.
What I mean by networking problem is that if you accessing the Exchange server that is on the same network as wi-fi, the server name/IP address might be different than that of access via 3G/internet. For the email client, 3G or wi-fi shouldn't make any difference. So I doubt it is a software bug. Rather a network configuration issue.
Similar issue
My stock widget is not updating correctly with my WiFi only tab 10.1. We are using '07 exchange and since I updated the Touch Wiz U/I this past weekend my email widget will get stuck on an email. New ones come in but the old ones don't move down to make way for the new ones. If I open the widget the new ones are there, just a PIA to open the widget to see what's new. I'm running stock. Not sure if there is a setting I'm not seeing to have it work the way it did pre Touch Wiz??
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Because if it's accessible on 3G, it's accessible on any wifi properly connected to internet. Besides, no other mail program (touchdown, moxier) has problems on wifi...
Does anyone with this firmware actually have stock exchange sync working on wifi?

I have the exact same problem. Syncs via 3G but not WiFi. When first setting up the Exchange account, I could not get it to even connect to the server via WiFi. After I switched off WiFi and tried 3G, it setup fine.
I have 2 iPhones, one iPad and several PCs on the same wireless network and they all have zero problems so it has to be specific to the 10.1.
Galaxy Tab P7500 XXKG7
The same problem. Few days after purchase I use Exchange (3G, WiFi) and was happy.... but after full reboot and clearing all date, Exchange sync only through 3G. No sync with WiFi.
So now I use two Exchange accounts (corporate and Google) with 3G connection, because no sync with WiFi.
Do you have any ideas?
Different access point, different Exchange servers, correct settings ... but same problem: no sync with WiFi!
No, I am out of ideas. I tested two other email programs - Moxier and Touchdown, both of which work perfectly over WiFi and 3G. So I purchased Touchdown.
I have tested with two different Exchange servers and get the same problem so it cannot be Exchange specific.
It must be a bug in the Honeycomb email software.
I find it very odd because essentially the email client just makes network calls and what sort of network connection is used should be completely transparent to the software.

It was not Honeycomb bug only.... because I find several similar posts on other forums connections with Android 2.2.3, 2.3

Is that right. Pretty fundamental impact on functionality so I would have thought it would get top priority for a hotfix.
OTOH there must be 10.1 owners out there who have it working, otherwise it would be all over the net. Maybe it affects the 3G model only.
Have you tested on more than one WiFi network?

3 different WiFi networks based on different equipment (Cisco, HP, DLink) and diff. providers
Hi! I solve this problem.
1. took out SIM card
2. Full reset.
3. Insert SIM card again.
Everything works well!
After them come the think, may be enough took out SIM and re-setting. But now I have well good sink Exchange over WiFi and 3G.
Hi!
Did that, and it worked right until I have inserted back the SIM card and activated the 3G settings. Then it also started working only on 3G. Very strange. May be something with operators?

It not a operator problem, I think. I checked 3G Utel Ukraine and EGPRS Beeline Russia. That the same resalts. So I think it is Android 3,1 problem.
Also, about full reset. . . It is not necessary. Took out SIM and restart onle needed.
Right, ashot, but did it work afterwards? For me it stopped when I activated 3G again.
I don't usually like to push or sell apps on people but I would just pay the money and buy Touchdown mostly because its fast, reliable and secure. It works the same way Outlook 2010 works and it keeps you more organized just like outlook. Plus they sync really nice together if your using ActiveSync on your exchange server, which you better be if your a good IT SYS Admin.
I would do it, if there was no preinstalled software. But there is one, and I just want to get it working.
Imagine telling that to an iPad owner.

Pre-installed doesn't always mean good. Example being the iPad. Nothing pre-installed on their is any good and I tell iPad owners that almost daily, sadly.

Hello
friends as the title says
everything working fine on wifi other then s voice and dropbox app on my s3 kindly help me how i can fix this problem
just bought s3 today
kindly help me
its working on mobile data but not on wifi plz help
Have you tried different wi-fi networks?
This sounds like your wifi network -or at least it's internet connection- is restrictively filtered through a firewall.
Are you by any chance in a corporate, university or otherwise managed/shared network?
no i am using my house wifi
everything works fine like facebook ap gmail browsing etc all
but drop box and s voice only working on mobile data
no there is no filter
i have tried it on other wifi as well
same here.Doesnt work on wifi.

so anyone can help?
I had the opposite problem. Non http apps would only work on wifi and not hspa. I just changed my apn settings and it fixed it. So I can only imagine it's a network issue, not letting certain ports through maybe.

Try switching to mobile data/restarting your phone/reinstalling Themer. One of these should work

Okay, well that seems to be it, switching to Mobile Data. But why? It's always worked before over wifi and nothing has changed in my Internet status or on my phone. Same internet, same cable modem, same router, same ROM with the same settings. And I've rebooted modem, router, and phone. What can I look for that could be blocking Themer beta from working on my phone (GNII) over wifi that has changed since 2 days ago?
Edit: Unless Google is hiding some kind of firewall tweak inside a recent Search or YouTube update, I'm stumped!
Edit 2: All other Internet services on the phone including T-Mobile wifi calling are working normally.
The issue to me is themer same thing data works fine wifi a pain in arse,as you say this has only been an issue over the last couple of days.Also now running very sluggish,everything else again is running fine over wifi just themer having issue
Problem solved, sort of: I've isolated the issue to my own Charter cable connection. It works fine on mobile or wifi data connection outside of my own location. In my Motorola cable box, if I go to the firewall settings, and change the firewall protection to "none," Themer works. But if I change it to "Low," it doesn't, even though I've always had it on "low." Guessing they pushed out an update or changed something on the backend.
Can anyone tell me what port (if not port 80) that Themer uses on the phone to connect to themer servers?

[Q] Mobile data coming on when on wifi

Every so often I will pick up my phone and notice that my phone is using mobile data at the same time that my wifi is connected. I have noticed this off and on since day one but havent thought of asking if anyone else is experiencing this.
When I notice it, I disable wifi and re-enable it which usually takes care of the issue.
The problem is that I only get 3gb of data a month and when I am on wifi, I should not be using my mobile data.
Attached is a screenshot showing both 4G LTE and Wifi connected at the same time.
I couldn't begin to guess the cause of your problem but I think I can suggest a workaround.
Download Tasker and create a profile that disables mobile data when connected to certain wifi connections. Should help
Make sure your mobile data setting isn't on. Advanced Wi-Fi Settings.

Thanks swimm12984. I had thought about that as well
prp2: that's not a setting in Advanced Wifi
I'm thinking this is intentional. To be able to reliably do a WiFi to VoLTE or GSM handoff when using WiFi calling, for example, the phone needs to periodically maintain a connection with the mobile network. Otherwise, if you happen to lose wifi signal or walk out of signal range, your call will drop.
I noticed this on my Note 3 as well when I was using it on WiFi, but only after they issued an update to 'fix' wifi to volte/gsm handoff issues.
Try disabling VoLTE in your calling settings and see if it still occurs.

That actually makes sense. I had wifi-calling turned off but didn't think of turning VoLTE off as well. I will not be able to tell right away as it happened sporadically but I will comment back after a day or so.

Ah, in that case, I can almost guarantee that's what it is. If VoLTE is on, but wifi calling is off, then it will have to maintain it's connection to the data network for sure! Let us know how it goes, but I'm pretty confident

Your mobile data will also turn on while on WiFi if you're sending/receiving MMS with a third-party SMS app, like Textra. Those apps do not have access to WiFi Calling on the V10 so they must use mobile data for MMS.
