[Q] download issue when screen is off... - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys i have an annoying issue i hope somebody has an answer...
When downloading files in my case a rom zip file which is about 160 mb, if i turn off the screen and put it aside to download the download speed drops within a minute to single bytes per minute and then drops completely til download fails... whether if i keep the screen on by repeatedly pressing on screen every few seconds to keep the screen on the download persists as it should. Can anybody help me out why this is happening?
Im using infected's 4.2 rom build 20130813 with gustavo's kernel build 0717
Nova launcher.
P.s. wifi is set to be connected when phone sleeps in settings and wifi signal is strong and doesn't drop connectivity.
I also tried downloading with the regular download manager that comes with the browser that comes with the rom and also with es file explorer and manager app, same issue...
Thank you so much for whoever takes the time to help

[Q] Downloads stall out

When I download larger files, my phone tends to "stall out" somewhere around 5-20 MB downloaded. At this point, I can't download anything more - browser doesn't work, cancelling and restarting the download doesn't do anything more, etc. - until, about 5-10 minutes later, downloads will start working again. Sometimes, if I reboot, or disable my data connection and re-enable it, it will work again, but it's not consistent. My upload/download arrows will continue to flash, and this never happens over Wifi.
I'm currently using the Nero v5 ROM, but this problem has happened for months across many ROMs. Any ideas?

any way of getting rid of time out

when i start to download any file which is big ,after the screen goes black after 1 minute the WiFi also stops working i have to start the machine again and the WiFi starts to work again
it means that i wont be getting any notifications while the screen is off as the WiFi is off .not nice
any way of getting around it
thanks
Download "Advanced Wifi Lock (Free)" from the store and set it so WiFi doesn't go off. It's somewhat of a battery killer but it's better than the alternative.
The wifi is a big flaw in the Tablet S that wasn't fixed in ICS.

Try this: before downloading the file, go into advanced Wi-Fi settings and set the Wi-Fi disconnect policy to "Never" or if you have your tablet connected to its charger, "Never when plugged in". After the file has been downloaded, set the disconnect policy back to what you normally have it set to.
This is the WLan Bug. Sony cant get it better with ICS and to change the Wlan Settings does not bring the result.
So take your Screentime to max about 5min. and tap every 2 or 3 minutes the screen. Revert this Settings after download is complete.

I've only ever had this problem once, and I could fix it by just going to Settings>WiFi Settings>Advanced>Disconnection Policy and said "Never". That would be my suggestion since (as mentioned) third-party WiFi lock's chew through battery like theres no tomorrow...
Good ideas. I also use an app that does not let the screen sleep when the power cord is plugged in.

[Q] SoD Problem on all Roms (seems to be Wifi related)

Hey guys,
I have a "little" problem with my S2. Whenever I leave wifi on and let the screen go off, my phone will get into SoD (sleep of death) and I can't wake it up. This will happen sooner or later.
I have this problem with every ROM I can think of. It's been a long time since I used a stock ROM, so I don't know if this only happens on Custom-ROMs.
Finding out that wifi (or my data connection) was causing those problems was a long process with a lot of frustration and trial and error (catlog won't work or doesn't show anything regarding the problem).
I tried to get rid of this problem with the APP "PNF - Push Notification Fixer" by reducing the heartbeat intervall of the wifi and mobile to 5 and 6 minutes (15 and 28 before) this seemed to reduce the frequency of the SoDs, but they are still happening.
I can get rid of the problem almost all the times with deactivating wifi when I let the screen go off or lock the phone myself. I get the same result when I turn off "Wifi optimization" in advanced wifi setting, but this is draining my battery pretty fast.
So basically I can use my wifi only when the phone is on the charger (no deep sleep at all) or if I turn it off when I lock the phone (something like 30 seconds can sometimes be enough to get the phone into SoD).
With data on and the screen locked I only experienced one SoD and this seemed to happen when I lost my signal at all.
So my conclusion is, that whenever I lose my data connection (might it be wifi or mobile) my phone does seem to get stuck in deep sleep at that moment or the moment it tries to reestablish the connection (the problem most propably got less after using PNF, because my router would kick my phones connection after a few minutes (10 would be my guess) of inactivity and this prevented a long enough inactivity. But they still happen (SoDs)). When I turn both wifi and mobile off and let it go into deep sleep this is no problem and no SoDs happen.
The SoDs were less but also happened when I were on CM11 M11 official, but got really frequent when I switched to Markox89's version of CM.
This is no rant or anything, I just want to get to the core of this problem and wanted to see/ask if there is something different in the Wifi module or wifi settings in this build and what could cause this very annoying problem.
Maybe someone else has this problem, too. Maybe my hardware is just faulty and I have to live with this :/
If it wasn't for this problem this ROM would run pretty smooth and flawless.
Does anybody else have the same problem or somehow knows how to get rid of it? This would get a lot of frustration out of my everday life :victory:
My setup right now:
- Markox89's CM11 Mod (22.11) (4.4.4)
- Lanchon's TRIM Kernel for CM 22.11 (same problem before using TRIM)
- Lanchon's Music bug fix (same problem before using Music bug fix)
- Modem: XXMS4
EDIT:
- XPosed with Xprivacy
- common apps like Threema, Telegram, whatsapp...
Tl;dr: my phone gets stuck in deep-sleep (SoD) if I leave wifi on when my screen turns off. no problem with mobile on or both data connections off. Halp?
@xhoster try to clean flash a rom and try it without all those apps you are using and then you can see or its app related or rom related. If it's rom related then I think some people already posted before there.
Also maybe try a custom kernel.
Try these things, I can't help you further then this atm.
Also mybe logcat the issue so you can read where it goes wrong.
FINAL EDIT: The problem seems to be the wifi driver all along!
Flashed the Apolo Kernel and this solved my SOD problem only had two since then and those seemed to be APP related!
Happy right now
It's seems to be the xposed framework! Tried it with a fresh installation after RomNuke and the phone was sleeping for 45 minutes and nothing happened, installed xposed and 10 minutes later I got a SoD. Tried it with the 2.7 beta 1 and the 2.6.1 stable version. Both gave me a SoD when I left wifi on...
Is this a known problem or has anybody ever had this problem?
When I tried it, I didn't even installed any modules, just the framework.
EDIT: I am going to test a bit more to see if it really is xposed or just the phone hanging whenever a connection is lost.

Download Issues

Hi guys i have a weird problem on my nexus 6p h1512. When i try to download anything on google play,chrome etc. downloads stop after few seconds and it resumes after ~1 minute.After it finishes downloading i see my downloaded file is corrupt.Also my wifi drops often like 5-10 minutes.
i think you should reboot your phone. If this doesn't help, you should check WiFi antenna if it is in right place or not, connected or disconnected/

Chrome downloaded file stops at 100 percent and won’t complete

For some reason why when I downloaded a 1GB file once the file hits 100 percent it stays there and wont finish so I can watch the video, how can I fix this.
Though you were updating chrome, fixed by turning off wifi and restarting update.
My WiFi was off, and chrome is up to date, and it’s still doing the same thing

I experienced that too, when I go to open the file in file manager the file works fine on me, there's some bugs also opera Web browser was doing so but they fixed it
