Time Zone - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have noticed that my N7 does not automatically change time zones even though the auto time update is checked and I am connected to a wifi network. All of my other devices update automatically. I tried a reboot with no success. Anyone else experience this? Thanks.

Do you have location services enabled?

I in fact do.

Experience same problem. Any fix?

I noticed the same problem a few weeks ago. My galaxy nexus changed no problem but it always did.

[Q] Nexus Q connection issues

Greetings all.
I'm having problems getting my Q to jive with my Nexus 7. I have manually reset the Q and I can set it up using my Nexus 7 but once I connect the Q to my network the N7 can no longer connect.
I have no problem getting it to work with my Galaxy S III so I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong, but I haven't got clue as to what.
Any ideas?

Now I've even factory reset my nexus 7 and have installed the latest build, still can't connect.
Starting to think Google really dropped the ball on this one.

I just picked up a Q and it constantly disconnects from my router over WiFi. It turns out that my router is one of the "Routers with Known Issues" - https://support.google.com/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2665467&topic=2663797&ctx=topic
While not a solution for everyone, since connecting it via ethernet I haven't had any problems. I still need to try updating to the latest firmware on my router or may even try a 3rd party firmware to see if it makes a difference as I'd prefer WiFi.

Anyone else having wifi connection issues with 4.2.1?

I only got my n7 a couple of weeks ago and almost immediately updated to 4.2. I didn't notice any issues. Immediately after the 4.2.1 update I keep getting random connection issues. I have to turn wifi off and on to resolve it.

I had the issue.. 32gb version in the US with the sep build. I actually had it prior to to 4.2.1. I ended up going into advanced properties and changing wifi to always on. Drains battery, but fewer need to turn wifi off and back on.

Yes. I have WiFi disconnects and random reboots since the new update .

WiFi Fixer
I use WiFi Fixer downloaded from Google Play. When the connection is dropped it automatically reconnects after a second or two.
Same on my 7 WiFi stops working at random times turn WiFi off and on fixes it, only started after 4.2.1 update

How do we make Google aware of these bugs?

My WiFi is always on and tethered to my evo3d at least 8 hours a day. Not a single problem under 4.2.1.

Just to clarify, i'm having this problem 100% stock. Not rooted what so ever. Roms/kernels could have this eliminated. But I wouldn't know.

No wifi internet / e-mail / notifications after 4.2.1
I am having a similar issue. Stock Nexus 7, never rooted, installed the 4.2.1 update when it was pushed. Since then I can connect to wifi connections but there is no internet access. While the icon in the upper right has small flashing arrow like data is being sent back and forth, the icon remains gray and no internet-requiring services on the tablet work. I've tried everything that I (and Google Play and Asus support) could think of with no luck.
The only thing they could come up with at the end was to restore the tablet to factory settings. Unfortunately I have application data that I need to back up that I can't access by accessing the internal storage using my laptop (I'm stock, remember?).
So I'm between a rock and a hard place here. Anyone have any suggestions? It was very frustrating when the Asus representative suggested I use the built-in backup and restore feature:
Me: "That requires internet access to work right?
Asus representative: "Oh....right..."
My Wi-Fi on both my Nexus 7's is very slow. They stay connected fine but I'm getting about 150kbps download speeds. I factory reset one of them to no prevail. Anyone have any insight on this or heard of others with this issue? All my other devices work fine on the same Wi-Fi connection and I tried turning everything else off so just the Nexi where connected to see if the speeds are faster, but they aren't. I'm stock on both devices and both are the 16gb version, one older than the other.

Known issue. I logged a bug with Google and there's actually several open bugs reporting wifi issues. So far, none of the bugs are being picked up by google officially.

I've tried this same thing, and as soon as I installed 4.2, WiFi went to sh**. Completely stock.
So turning wifi off then on seems to be the generally excepted quick fix?

Or use Static IPs. That solved it for me. I had to ask my company to provide a reservation for my MAC Address. It's like back in the 90s when Wifi started coming out using the BellLabs/Lucent chipset.

Bluetooth toggle doesn't work all the time?

The past few weeks I have been experiencing the bluetooth toggle both widget and settings not working unless I reset my phone. Any ideas why it's acting like this? I doubt it's a hardware issue. Any help would be great. Thanks!

i have / had the same issue, but lately has not happened. I am on the franco kernel r29. give that a try and see if you still cannot enabled bluetooth.
I had the same problem today. It was stuck on "off" until I rebooted my device.

I had this happen once. I am stock. Rebooted and it was fine.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I reboot when it happens also, but then it happens a few days after. I'm not sure why it does that. Maybe a bug?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I can't turn on my wifi and bluetooth neither. First I can turn them on after reboot, 2 days later, reboot doesn't work. Maybe it is a bug.
Okay well at least someone else is having the same issue as me, I hope it just a bug also.

do you have an NFC tasker installed? I think that might cause the problem...no sure tho, I'm having trouble with bluetooth not turning on too.
My 2 nexus is having the bluetooth issue, it will work when reboot or restart, but after a couple of day, you cannot switch the bluetooth on until you restart it. One nexus is rooted stock with bunch of app, The other is bone stock with very few app install.

Are you on WiFi? If you are, there's a wifi delay bug.

Ya I know about that. That isn't the issue. Also, when I am on WiFi and leave home my cellular network doesn't connect sometimes once I disconnect form wifi

[Q] wifi & mobile network grey bars

I recently bought my wife a nexus 4 abs she's been having a problem where when she disconnects from wifi her mobile network won't connect, it says 4g but it's greyed out. I know she should still have connection but she doesn't, everything just times out. Only thing that fixed it was a reboot, anyone else experience this issue? And she's on stock rom, not rooted.

No worries it'll reconnect to the servers.

This only happens to me when my WiFi connection decides to disconnect! Both my Service and WiFi gray out when my WiFi does not work. I have a terrible at&t internet service! But other than that it works properly.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Does it just never turn blue after turning off wifi? Its supposed to turn off mobile data when wifi is on to save battery. It could just be an issue with your carrier
Well like I said a reboot does fix it, from what I understand it's just when disconnecting from wifi. The time interval was about 10 minutes and her mobile data still wasn't connected. We're on tmobile btw. I thought it might just be an n4 issue, I don't experience that issue on my one.
