Just got my poco F1 and i love it! But one question.. On my old nexus 5 with android 7.1, i could enter network restrictions and set a wifi as "metered connection" to treat it as a mobile data. Is it possible to do this on poco? Since i share wifi from another phone i don't want it to eat up the data because it thinks it is on a unlimited wifi network.. My poco is using Android 9 with MIUI 10.
Cheers!
Idk about miui, I'm on lineage os. But check by going to WiFi, click the gear next to WiFi you're connected to, click advanced and you'll see a "metered" option which you can change as you want.

Thanks for the tip! But sadly there is no "advanced settings". Only "additional settings" but that doesn't have it either.

My home wifi details are saved on my phone. For some reason when I come home from work my phone refuses to automatically connect. I have to manually connect every time. Is this some strange setting on the phone or 'power saving'?
Does anyone know why this is and how I can fix it? It's unrooted KIW-L21, running 5.1.1.
I have the same problem.
What is strange is that this problem started about a week ago. The first two weeks, the 5x connected automatically, like all other devices that we have. The Honor 5x is the only device that has this problem.
Having exactly the same problem.
That is strange. I have not seen this moving between work and home wifi. Always connects.
It is the same with my KIW-L21. I attached a screenshot where the first wifi should connect automatically. Underneath the name of the wifi it says: "No internet connection possible, deactivated".
Then I need to connect manually. That will work fine but is not so practicable.
I have been having the same problem for just over a week, I got back from work today and it decided to connect automagically again. In trying to fix this I unchecked a box in advanced wifi options which said check for internet access. It didn't appear to work at the time but might be worth giving it a go.

Well no combination of settngs seemed to have fixed it so far. I'm going to try a static IP and see if that makes any difference.
If any of you have root, the wifi config files are located in: /data/misc/wifi/wpasuplicant.conf. You might find something interesting.
Static IP makes no difference. The phone is close to being returned right now. Massive shame as it's good other than this.

Keep in mind, if you have Comcast Xifinity Internet then its their DNS problem.

It will be sufficient to forget the network and to unite with the WPS option for me it helped! Check and let know!

I had the same issue of it not always reconnecting to my home wifi when I came back in range, but so far the above method seems to have worked for me (although only one day of testing so far).
can anybody tell me where is hidden wifi add option is ?
Not sure this Google Connectivity Services help but I have it on all my devices.

I have the same problem.
I have found out that with the option "check for internet access" off (under Settings -> Wifi -> Menu -> Advanced Settings) it still won't work, but it will automatically connect to Wifi when the screen is turned off and on again. At least it's quicker than having to connect manually, but still not a satisfying solution.
My model number is also KIW-L21.
UPDATE: Removing the home network and saving it again (with the exact same settings as before) apparently solve the issue. Now it is autoconnecting when the toggle is switched to on.

Google Connectivity Services is not compatible with Honor 5X (model number KIW-L21). It cannot be downloaded from the Google Play.

I really can't understand why there are apps compatible with Honor 5X in the United States (KIW-L24) and not compatible with the same device in Europe (KIW-L21). As far as I know, the main difference is the price (more expensive in Europe, around 268$).
Same Wifi Issues

I had the exact same issue. This happened on multiple wifi networks. Would not automatically connect to wifi, showed disabled, I would manually hit connect again. Several times a day it would just disco. I rooted and tried the 140 update, same thing. When I installed the CM12 ROM it didn't even detect my wireless network!! Weird. I changed the channel on my home wifi and it immediately saw the network. Something with the wifi channel, security, and EMUI?? Working great now though for five days.
I am currently connected to WiFi via SSID. How do I disconnect that current connection?
You should be able to see the list of remembered networks in Settings->Wifi Settings on the watch. Scroll down the list and the option should pop up.

Thanks for the reply, but I did not want to change the settings but wanted remove a WiFi connection.
Since I am on BL, can not find a benefit for having it. Do not want it just seeking other WiFi signals.

Turning off Cloud Sync in the Android Wear app will disable the wifi connection.

Hey guys,
Currently running Lineage 14.1 and trying to enable Wifi calling. I've searched a lot and I can't find any Redmi Note 3 roms that specifically state that wi-fi calling works.
I have enabled it in my build.prop and it shows up under "Wireless and Networks" (it doesn't appear in search though).
Also dialling *#*#4636#*#* now allows me to toggle wi-fi calling. When I go IMS Status it shows that VoLTE is active, but never wi-fi calls.
I'm on Three UK and wi-fi calling should work (with a Three branded phone).. But I hope I can get it to work on my RN3!
Anyone able to help?
Thanks
Try pure Nexus rom it states that WiFi calling is working
In nitrogen oreo build it's showing WiFi calling provisioned enable . Try this rom also.
Ps: never used wifi calling option

Sadly no. Pure Nexus doesn't have it. Everywhere you ask, someone will tell you to use your eyes and just search, no ROM has wifi calling working that I have tried.
I've tried updating build props and using Magisk fix and still nothing works.
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix with Radon and just settled on it for battery/stability..
Post if you find a ROM with this feature functioning properly.?

Hi,
I have WiFi assist enabled. Whenever there's no internet available on the WiFi it should start operating from mobile data right? It doesn't in my case. I have to manually disable WiFi. I think it's broken from 9.6.22 update.
Is it a known bug?
Try enabling "Wifi assistant" in
settings>wifi>advanced settings>wifi assistant
If you are using miui

Yes, it's enabled as I have mentioned it already. Does it work on your phone?
Just tested.. I gave me a prompt to disconnect but does not disconnect by itself or switch over to mobile data
btw, I am on MIUI Global 10.0.4.0
Hey everyone, hope you all are well!
I am having issues with maintaining a Wi-Fi connection with the device. Randomly, I will see that the phone is connected to the AP but has a message "connected to device but no internet" right below the SSID or that anything that needs to pull data becomes extremely slow/doesn't load. No other devices on my network does this and after playing with a few settings on the phone itself I still have no idea why this is happening. This is with a Pixel 6 256 GB model.
Devices that are make up my LAN:
OPNsense 21.7.5 (Gateway, DHCP Server (IPV6 is disabled))
PiHole v5.6 (DNS)
DDWRT v3.0-r47618 (Running on Linksys WRT-1900 ACS V2, this is configured in ROUTER mode, DHCP+DNS+NTP+IPV6 all disabled)
Things that I have tried:
1) Tried disabling Adaptive Connectivity, as well as under the AP there is the Privacy setting to use random MAC, I set it to use device MAC
2) Restarting my LAN devices + made sure they are all up to date
3) Due to phone pulling from old phone during initial setup, I remove all APs that were saved and reconnected manually
4) Trying the Pixel 6 on another AP (Connectivity was stable no issues, AP was a public AP at work)
5) In phone's reset options, there is an option to reset all network settings
6) Full reset of phone through reset option and manually setting phone up instead of copying from old phone.
If anyone else might have any idea as to what I could do or try, hell if there is even a way to capture what is happening, please let me know.
One more thing that I ran into, there are other users out there that have an option under Network Preference "Switch to mobile data automatically". I purchased this phone directly from Google, so it should be unlocked, but I don't see that option under my Network Preference.
Thank you in advance!
wonder why your link speed is so slow with 802.11ac...should be higher than that...

Damn, I didn't even notice that. I have updated my AP settings so lets see if this will stick.

It's in the Developer options
Small update, I have reconfigured my wireless and am still having issues with the Pixel 6 dropping randomly.
DDWRT settings for the 5 GHz network have been updated, the device has been rebooted. Screenshot of settings in attachment. Also attached are screenshots from the pixel 6.
There is a screenshot with AP info for the 5 GHz, in this screenshot at the bottom you can see both my interfaces and all the connected wireless device. The MAC address with the red is the Pixel 6. The Blue is my OP 6.

Thank you for the reply Wibbly, but I am not seeing the option in Dev Options.
I was looking for the setting that is shown in the screenshot. Although could this only be a Pixel 6 Pro option? I would doubt that but I have no idea.

I got my P6 (non pro) from Google and it's there, as described above. I was having a similar issue but found it was related to adaway's non-root VPN, which I ultimately uninstalled.
