Xoom and the spontaneous internet shutdown! - Xoom General

Has anyone had an issue where the internet just spontaneously shutdown on you?
Talk about annoying!
Have anyone run across this and any solutions?
Thanks!

Try a custom from if ur feeling adventurous

Funny thing is I've never considered it like I've done with my phones. So perhaps I need to check out some custom ROMs!

I changed the channel on my wireless access point and so far so good. Yes it was very annoying!!

It used to happen to me on Stock all the time. On EOS everything is fine.

On my mom's old Netgear Wireless B router whenever I connect my Xoom to it the internet will last for about 30-40 seconds then it stops working although the SSID is still broadcasting there's no internet on either my Xoom or my mother's Laptop. Wired devices still have internet. Rebooting the router solves the problem until the Xoom connects again. Tried changing every possible setting including; fixed IP reservation, broadcast channel change, WEP-, WPA- and MAC filter on/off. Nothing works.
I was sad to learn that android does not support ad-hoc mode for tethering (as I was used to doing that before with Symbian phones and Netbooks)

have the same problem. any solution? team eos ics 1.0.0 already changed channel on router still same problem

Yeah my xoom is wifi only and it happens on my work and home wifi.
Not sure when I use the mobile hotspot on my phone though.

Happens to me from time to time, but if it makes you feel any better - it occurs more often on my wife's iPad than it does on my Moto Xoom...

You know what? THAT DOES make me feel better! haha

I wonder if this is why I can't get netflix to work every night when I'm at home. I'd be interested in knowing if there is a fix for this.
I've thought about flashing the EOS ROM, but aren't there still bugs with it? I can't get an answer as to the actual benefits of flashing this ROM over staying on Stock ICS.
Any thoughts or comments, I'd be greatly appreciative if some of the users of EOS could offer the benefits of this.

The team EOS roms are solid. They have a stable build available if you don't want to flash a nightly. The roms have plenty of enhancement to the kernel and interface. Also the custom toggles on the notification menu is awesome. Faster boot times. Being able to use wifi while on airplane mode so the 4g or 3g doesn't kill you battery. You can also overclock your device. Finally you can enable the xoom to decrease brightness without hitting the power button twice and turning the charging light while on. Being rooted also has its benefits.
Don't be afraid. Team EOS is your friend.

I've never considered flashing my xoom. If EOS is that good. Is there instructions on how to do it?

I had this problem also. I changed the channel and the type of wireless to G (I normally set it to N type). So far, everything is fine.

It does happen to me also. The worst thing is you need to restart the tablet to turn the connection back up.

wifi isue

Just got my transformer the other day, it seems i got one of the good models. It seems pretty well built, no creaking or anything, a little light bleed in the bottom screen, but not anything you would normaly see. Any way, when the transformer wakes up, it sometimes has isues with the wifi, its like its not proberly on my network, but if i manualy disable and enable wifi it works just fine again. Is this a normal problem? caus i dont seem to find any other with the same isue? i am running 3.1 official rom.
other than that, its a nice tablet for the price. i am glad i went with this compared to a samsung tab. (more bang for the buck here def..)
can no one tell me if this is a 3.1 isue, or if its a general isue of do i need to replace my new transformer? really need to know before my 14 days return rights are lost.
This happens on my Chinese model too(stock 8.4.4.7),hadn't when it was 8.2.3.9 though.
I'm gonna root and flash a custom rom,and see if this will be fixed.
tnx for your feedback, guess i will wait and hope it gets fixed. Just waiting for a easy way to root 3.1, then i will probaly try a custom firmware aswell
Have you set your router to a specific channel or is it on auto mode?

its set to a specific channel.
Unfortunately it sounds like you might have to wait for an update, as Asus downgraded the wifi driver for some reason in the 3.1 version. Either that or you could re-install an older firmware ofc.

Rooting 3.1 couldn't get much easier - check out ANY release to rooted > 1.4 PRime guide. The only difference between 3.0 and 3.1 in the rooting process is you need to download an extra 200mb file to install an update (well downgrade) to the transformer before rooting.

Same problem. It happens when it's been sitting in sleep mode for a while. (It) does not matter if you set it to always stay on or not in settings. I have RMA'd mine due to the dead left speaker but that was mentioned on my list of problems so maybe it will get fixed but I doubt it somehow.

I got my Transformer on release day and it's had this wifi issue since day one. I've been through non-root/stock firmware; rooted/Prime 1.4 and the issue has persisted. I just turn the wifi off and then back on again (when it happens) using the keyboard dock shortcut or a widget on the display. For me it's not a big deal but I can see how it might annoy others.

I've had my Transformer since release day too, and I've not had this issue, until yesterday! Now I'm having it every other time it wakes roughly. I have not changed anything on my router, and I'm using a fixed channel. I'm way out in the country, so there are no interfering stations either. It is funny that it just started up.

funny thing is, today my isues are gone. Sounds like software bug. Do you use stock rom or?
Yes, all stock. I'll have to think about what I installed yesterday. I did install that monitor program that Amazon was offering free.
i dont think its a app that is messing up, mine or more or less clean, only got a few apps installed..
I have never had this issue with my stock TF. It goes in an out of sleep all the time and the Wifi is always available.

Just saying Hi

Just wanted to say Hi to everyone and introduce myself.
I'm fairly new to posting, as I have been sitting back and searching and reading to get all my info.
My name is Dan and I have a HTC Incredible with recently flashed MIUI 1.12.9 and 2.6.38.8-incredikernel-12/08/2011. I have used McTwist and Nils Business GingerSense ROMs in the past. I find MIUI to run great on my phone and its custom UIs are great. I run LauncherPro to give me back my app drawer instead of having all my apps on multiple screens.
Thanks to all the developers and everyone who made rooting possible. Keep up the great work.
Quick question..
I just came from MIUI, same specs, back to CM7.
I'm having issues, where the wifi on my phone will disconnect when the phone screen turns off...
I use this handset as a home-line, radio..
When i plug it up to the speakers, and let the music play... as soon as the screen shuts off.. so does my wifi..
i use DI.fm for my radio app
GrooveIP for my goovle Voice line,
and Google Voice Text messaging app for texts.
Please, if you have noticed this issue, or would mind testing it with MIUI, that would be great.
I have been running CM7 mostly.. but,last week i decided to see what all the hype about MIUI was..flashed, was working well, then all of a sudden the wireless thing appeared.
Come to think of it,
we did switch wirelessrouters out about the time the issue was noticed...
Let me do some more testing with the old router, and see if that makes any difference.
Welcome to the forums!!!! ;]
Thanks in advance for any input\testing\results you may come across

Change your sleep policy in advanced settings?
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
Yup, it's been on 'always on' the entire time... I changed it back and forth between the three options just to see, as well, and still the same issue.. :/
Going to test the old router and see if it is something with that..
Results soon
Edit:
Okay, it's something to do with how the phone handles the router..
The old router, linksys e2100l, works fine. When the screen turns off, the wifi connection stays active.
The new router, rspro, for some reason drops about thirty seconds after the screen shuts off. :/
The linksys e2100L is running the latest ddwrt software,
The router station pro is running the latest openwrt backfire port. With ath9k wifi drivers.
I'll look more into this and see what's going on. I have a feeling this might be a cm7 universal issue, so i might get my hands on some more devices to test..

Just so you don't think I was ignoring you, I tested MIUI with just headphones and the MIUI music player and my WIFI stayed on. I don't use GrooveIP or DI.FM so can test that portion.
I do see that you have most likely solved your problem. Good luck getting new router to work

[Q] Nexus 4 Notification Delay

This topic has been discussed a lot of times on internet but I am really concerned about fixing my phone as no matter what, if i am on 2G, 3G or WIFI I stop having notification after 15-20 minutes. In fact I tried PINGING my device and PING stops really after 15 minutes. Anyways, currently I am desperately waiting for 4.3 and there is just no NEWS of the RELEASE DATE whatsoever. But also I am not much into CUSTOM ROM or KERNELS but was wondering if I can only update the KERNEL version (i.e., FRANCO if any one suggest) and solve this issue. I want to be remain on STOCK ANDROID but is it possible to only upgrade the kernel ?
Also I would need tutorial for the quickest root and the safest kernel to follow and keep upgrading it all the time. Thank you.

The choices and threads are out there for you if this is truly bothering you. You can stay stock and flash a couple of files to test out if your issue is fixed. Rooting is not the end of the world and you can always go back. As for tools there are multiple stickied root methods just choose one. Also no guarantee 4.3 fixes the issue. I flashed a couple files from Development in the Wifi/Fix thread and my problems went away. May for you it may be the prima drivers but you wont know until you do it

I will be still waiting till 4.3 is released but just one thing I wanted to confirm when you said your problem was FIXED. Was it on both 3G / WiFi because this issue occurs on both interface.
Are there any other particular apps that still gets notification after everyone don't?

any APP has the same issue. I use the following and in everything it is the same frustrating issue.
whatsapp
Talk.to
Email (Even if the settings are on 1 hour INBOX CHECK, it never works until i manually do the sync)
These are the only apps I always expect to notify me INSTANTLY. Also it was the same in Google talk and any other IM apps.

Thanks but it also happens in 2G because 3G I can't use due to my work environment where I can't keep charging my phone and in 3G this phone battery drains quickly. Well, two more weeks ill wait for 4.3 and if Google is still fooling then I will go ahead with ROOT and some KERNEL experiments. Thanks a load.

4.3 Wifi issues?

Anyone else having wifi issues with 4.3? I am 100% stock unrooted, installed the official google factory image with fastboot doing a full wipe including user data. I have been running AOKP and have gotten sick of the issues this tablet has and though that going 100% stock to see if it solved any of the problems. I have only been installed since last nigh but I am already having wifi issues. The wifi seems to loose connection and has to be toggled on and off to get it going again. Anyone else seeing this?
I can confirm this.
I actually think my Wi-Fi is even better now.

I had the issue you described on 4.2.2 but not so far with 4.3, only time will tell. I'm getting random YouTube app freezing but these do not appear to be WiFi related. I flashed the 4.3 update over my existing 4.2.2. Stock image so have a different base then yours.
No problem with WiFi, it also seems more stable now.

As others have said, I've found my wifi reception/stability has improved with the 4.3 image. My older 802.11b hotspot didn't work with the N10 reliably before the upgrade to 4.3, regularly dropping the connection. Now it works fine, and always at full "bars" reception.
My 5Ghz 802.11n AP worked fine before, and still works fine now.
Hi, I too have had poor wifi on my wife's nexus 10 since 4.3.
Every night for last couple months my wife and I have played ticket to ride in in bed. From the moment she reset it to apply the 4.3 update (between games) she has suffered from dropouts and the game continually disconnects. Was running perfectly for months until this update was applied.
Given that she updated between games and we noticed the issue immediately after the update I am sure there is a change for the worse in the wifi configuration under android 4.3.
I am also experiencing wifi issues with the stock 4.3 update. No SoD so far like with 4.2.2 but since 4.3, wifi quality will degrade when I am using it heavily. I will still have 2-3 bars but the connection will slow to a crawl until I toggle wifi off/on. (I feel I should add: quality router, multiple devices without issues) The only thing I have done to this ROM is chainfire root. It seems some have the issue and some don't. I'll prob try and install again tonight to see if it helps.
I have been experiencing a loss in internet connectivity after 1-2 hours of inactivity now that I am on 4.3. The WiFi icon turns gray but stays connected to the router. I rebooted the router, but no help. I have advanced settings set to WiFi always on. I had WiFi optimization on, and am now testing to see if things change with it off. I never had any connectivity problem with 4.2.2 and nothing else has changed. If this keeps up, I may flash back to 4.2.2 till things get better.

That is a very simple fix if you just asked around, or searched and you would see the three primary causes.

I ended up using an app called safe charge that seemed to do the trick. What were the other causes or fixes for this? I just wanted to go stock for a bit while AOKP and CM get the 4.3 builds up and running so i would have a reference to compare the performance and stability to.
I have filed a bug report for this here https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=58206&thanks=58206&ts=1375129699

The leading causes of sleep of death issues are:
The CPU governor uses hotplugging, the majority of the users on this tablet get SoD with hotplugging on
Voltage was tweaked a bit lower and is not enough to run your CPU properly
You are running Franco's R12 kernel which has a very widely known SoD issue.
It is also possible that the version of the AOKP kernel you may have been running had the same tweak that Franco did and was also causing a SoD. 90% of the time when someone has a sleep of death issue on this tablet it is because of something from the kernel that is causing the issue, you can try out KTManta or Trinity kernel (also both of them have beta kernels available for 4.3).

FWIW, after turning the WiFi optimization off, the WiFi status icon has remained blue and I have not lost the internet connection when sitting idle for hours.

I cannot seem to fix it. I have searched threads here and on other forums, poked around the Google forums and I have tried everything mentioned and I cannot get it to go away. It comes and goes at random too. I have yet to flash an older radio, if anyone could provide me with one then I could give that a shot, but I cannot believe that I am in the minority here.
Oh and I have completely factory reset my phone and it does not help. Rooted running PureNexus.

That's means your router has no Internet not the phone. It's your WiFi router losing its Internet connection. Without seeing your setup I can only speculate as to the exact issue.

There are 2 problems with that. All my computers and other phones in the house do not have this problem, so it definitely is not the router. Also, I am not always connected to my home router. I will be on my commute to work (no wifi) and it will happen. Hell, it will happen AT work and we have an enterprise network with update to date Cisco switches and APs.

Funny thing is, I am back to unrooted stock and it instantly goes away. I was having the issue last night and into this morning on my home Wifi, on my way to work, then at work on LTE and when on the Wifi. I reverted the phone back to stock and now all is well. Why would a custom rom have something to do with not connecting to Google Services??

There could be many reasons. Custom Roms are modified and usually have custom kernels. Lots of stuff can go wrong. It's the risk of flashing custom Roms. I find with the 6p, stock rooted is the best. There isn't anything you can't do between xposed and root access. Each time I try a rom I have radio issues to be honest. I just stay stock.
That's a good call. Really the only thing I want root for is theming and double tap to wake, both can be achieved without custom rom (I believe)
Although I use Android Pay and even with systemless root, I am unable to get it to work....So maybe I should stay stock for awhile, but that is for another thread.
Appreciate your help, Gizmoe!

I think Google has updated the safetynet API that prevents Android Pay working with Systemless root. I had it working until the latest update of Android Pay.

I cannot seem to fix it. I have searched threads here and on other forums, poked around the Google forums and I have tried everything mentioned and I cannot get it to go away. It comes and goes at random too. I have yet to flash an older radio, if anyone could provide me with one then I could give that a shot, but I cannot believe that I am in the minority here.
Oh and I have completely factory reset my phone and it does not help. Rooted running PureNexus.

I see you are running Pure Nexus, seems you are not the first to have an issue with wifi. Beans has suggested a potential fix.

Unfortunately, I had tried that. I am not even sure it is Wifi related though as I was getting the ! on my cell signal as well when I wasn't even on wifi.

Hmm, that is unusual. Is this all occurring with the matching Vendor.img to the Pure Nexus build you are using?

Yes, it was. I have reverted back to stock unrooted and I am no longer having the issue. I did not want to do this, but unfortunately I have to actually use my phone as a phone and need the basic functionality that I was losing with the continuous issue.

I suggest trying another rom and testing that out. May help you isolate the problem. Perhaps its has to do with 2.4 ghz vs. 5.0 ghz Wi-Fi networks, either can be forced in Wi-Fi settings. Or it may be a conflict with a mod in Pure Nexus if this does not occur on another rom.
