Lately, I must turn off Wi-Fi and turn it back on to connect to any Wi-Fi source. Even if the device has just been sleeping.
Any suggestions besides throwing this thing away which is what I'd like to do?
Thanks

Ah, never mind. I did yet another wipe and restore and that particular problem has gone away for now.
Thanks!

Hello, I've installed the Virtuous Galaxy rom on my Iconia and have now encountered a strange (possible) bug.
When I wake my tablet up, I can see that tthere's no Wireless connection. So I go into Settings to make sure the wireless is connecting, then my screen goes black and the flashing ANDROID appears. It's there for a few seconds only and then I'm back to the lock screen with no wireless.
I left the tablet alone to see what would happen and it just cycles through the lock screen & 'reboot'. I can't connect to wireless to download Ti Backup so I'm guessing a full Wipe & re-flash is in order.
Does anybody have some kind of idea as to what could be happening??
Please don't tell me i have to re-flash, my boyfriend just clocked Cut the Rope!!

What's clocked mean ? And are you on the latest
Kernel

This is not a problem with the galaxy rom as I was experiencing the same issue on the early release 3.1. I fixed mine by disconnecting from the wireless network (must be quick to access settings and disconnect before the tab reboots) then forget the network and power cycle your router..you should then be able to reconnect without the random reboots. Hope this helps

This is not an issue with the galaxy rom. Check your wifi settings as mine is set to always on. Also what kernel are you using as the random reboot issue was solved from unity v3. Sounds like a bad flash to be honest. Always wipe cache and dalvik cache when flashing the rom.

If the kernel I'm using is wrong, what kernel *should* I be using? I've never had to fiddle around with kernels before.

This worked like a charm; thanks!
Can anybody tell me what kernel I should be using?
And is there a decent reason to upgrade from Virtuous 1.0.1 to 1.0.2?

Honestly take a look at the rest of the galaxy thread it will give you a indication of what problems to expect.

I'm not really experiencing any problems as such now that I know how to deal with the weird WiFi thing.
What I'm interested in now is the kernel.
All of a sudden, my tablet is going crazy. Never had a wifi prob before. But since latest update it has taken a while to connect to the internet.
Then last night and into today, it is connecting/disconnecting every 2 seconds. It never locks in and stays with my router. I have to shut down and when it comes back on its good. But as soon as it goes to sleep it can never reconnect with a hard shutdown.
Anyone have any idea or similar problem?

I had a similar problem. It ended up not being my transformer but my router, turned it off and back on. Smooth sailing since.

In my experience, that's a sign that there is something corrupted in the configuration...credentials or whatever...
Even if you KNOW the information....do this:
Delete the current connection and recreate it in your TF...
that should take care of it.
So you are both saying to delete the router, turn the router off/on and then reconnect?
I will give that a whirl...

Did you install the Google Maps update? Version 5.10.0 form 8 september? I read that this update is the problem of the continuing connect/disconnect.
Look here for some other people who has the the problem : http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-help/6324-wifi-acting-up.html
So far so good! Thanks guys!

Had the same problem. I updated to a new kernel and it went away.
Hi,
Motorola repaired my Defy+ (they flashed 2.3.6 retail 4.5.1-134_DFP- 231).
Now always when the phone starts using data on 2G the screen becomes blackband the phone performs a soft restart (I don't need to put my PIN in again).
Sometimes I can work an hour on edge without problems but later I can feel every minute the startup-vibrate.
When I'm on Wifi the phone works normal. I could only test 3g very short so I don't know if that works or not.
Does someone has a solution for this?

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 .

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

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.
mine does which i think is strange. I was just curious.
Thanks,
Actually it does not.
I thought every Android device wakes up when connecting the charger. All smartphones I got my hands on did. Though this can be disabled
Not it does not turn on. You may wanna check in settings if there's something to enable/disable it (don't know whether you're using a custom rom or not)
Every Android device does unless you modify the Android. Policy. Jar. I think that's the one. However my galaxy S3 doesn't turn on running Cm10.1

Well I guess since I cant unlock the damn thing ill have a hard time changing that file. My phone doesn't do it but ive had a custom rom on it for so long i dont recall if the phone turned on when i plugged if in prior to rooting it. However, i dont have a custom ROM on the TF300T nor do i see a power setting so i guess id have to edit the file somehow. Seems silly to me since I'd like to keep it shut off to charge faster but as soon as i plug it in on she powers up from being completely off. Annoying.
Yes, mine does.

AW: Does your TF300T turn on when you plug in the charger?
Well mine did few seconds after I unplugged again. Guess it was some sort of delay

Yep, same here. This is the only Android device I've had that boots up fully when connecting a charger.

That's an easy hack,
You can also disable the screen on when plugged in via a .jar hack.

I've only had this issue on the odd occasion, but just the other day I left it off and plugged in, went to work and it was still off when I got back.

Strange, mine did at first. But after bricking, and recovering from the brick, it no longer does. I found that out today when I plugged it in after it died. I still had to turn it on after I returned back to it an hour later.
