Xoom and the spontaneous internet shutdown!

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.

Samsung Galaxy S2 Stuck Searching for GPS

Hi,
I have a S2 and a couple months back I didn't have any problems with my GPS. Now however, whenever I open the navigation and type a location, it finds me on the map and highlights the route to take, however at the bottom of the screen it says "searching for GPS" and therefore does not starts the navigation.
I have rooted the phone last month. I am not sure if this is the problem and I don't know how to unroot the phone so I can't check if this is the problem.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Open maps first, wait for it to locate you in maps. Then exit maps and re enter navigation address and it should work

Happened to me when i Got an alluminium case

Thanks for the help. It seems to work when I open the maps first and then open the navigation later like bundi22 said.
Why is it weird like this? Is there anyway of making it work by opening the navigation straight away, instead of going onto the maps first?

im having a similar issue, 7 to 10 sats in view, no fix, happened on the last two days, before, fix was in 3~5 secs, anyone?

Hey guys what I found worked really well for me was to use an app called fasterfix from play store to change the ntp server to my country which made it much better (resets on rom flash) also mobile data works much better than wifi for a fix and very rarely it just gets stuck so a quick reboot might help!

I'm having the same issue since yesterday, just not finding any GPS satellites, but it was fine two days ago.

Hi sorry to hear that but does this issue persist across reboots? I doubt the problem is due to rooting but sometimes it can help to either wipe cache and dalvik or re-flash your rom. I have had random GPS issues on some firmware versions but for me personally DXLPB has been the best. I would start by trying small changes like wiping caches first though and save changing roms for later if this is your only issue. Also, sometimes performing a full wipe can fix small bugs like this but a full wipe can take a lot of time so let's save that for a last but possible option! Good luck with it though, I know how annoying it can be if the GPS plays up!

I've got the same . Not sure if the weather has got anything to do with it. it has been very cloudy for x days here in Scotland.
I have never had any problems with gps until now. About 10 satellites in view but no fix. It drives me crazy because I run with endomondo using gps signal.
I read about mods that improve gps fix but I can not find it now.

Great tip mate, had issues with getting GPS Fix after flashing CM9 but used your fasterfix app tip, selected UK and bosh, not getting fixes on 10 satellites Thank you very much sir, saved me flashing another ROM.

Are you sure you used fasterfix properly? Did it actually changed your Current Server? My one by default was set to an american/canadian one, hence why I wasn't getting any fixes. Changed it to my country and now it works like a charm .. Select your country/region and hit go and make sure the server link in Current Server updates, then use GPS Test app to test your GPS.

What rom are you guys using? I've noticed that my GPS sucks since installing XWLPM (Russia 4.04). I tried flashing back to a different modem but it didn't help. I'm patiently waiting for a new 4.04 ROM which might help the situation out. I've tried fasterfix as well as several other programs but it doesn't help much. My phone used to get a gps lock within 10 seconds indoors and within 5-7 seconds outdoors. Now it takes minutes...

I'm currently running on CM9 nightly, stock CM Kernel, KH3 modem. Try testing out a few different regions in FasterFix. Use the GPS Test app to test your GPS. And, obviously, make sure you're outside or close enough to a window to get a clear signal.

gps fixes quicker when you take you're phone out of aluminium case(if you have one)

I live in Sweden. I've tested: stock XWLPG; RR with kernels: CM9 (not the last one though), Siyah 3.4.1, NEAK 2.1.1; CM9 RC2, CM9 0721.
Results:
- Instant GPS lock on stock XWLPG (blinking icon, fix within few seconds) and on RR (no blinking icon, fix within less than ten seconds) but only with Siyah and NEAK kernels. No problems whatsoever.
- Unfortunately both CM9 builds and RR with CM9 kernel gave horrible scores. It took 4-8 minutes to fix.
I find it really hard to believe that gps problems are weather-related (at least in my place).

Samsung's GPS always hard to link the satellites, it must work with A-GPS assist, you can download faster fix from google play, and assigned a agps sever near your region, that's helpful

Announcement: CyanogenMod 9.1 ICS Stable build RELEASED!

Let's go to get.cm/?type=stable
You can see cm-9.1.0-p1.zip (cm-9.1.0-p1c.zip)

What's the difference? And is It available for the P1000N?

Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app

Difference with cm9 rc1
hello,
Im very much interested with this new rom. I would just like to know what are the major differences with this new rom, compared to the cm9 rc1? tried searching for details about this new rom, but couldnt find any. I use the cm9 rc1 as a daily driver. It has worked for me very well, although there are minor errors (which is another topic). Pls let me know, so I can decide whether to try this out or not. thanks very much.

Been running it for two days now. Nice and stable.

Been runnigng 9.0 for 1 week with no (major) problems. Upgraded to 9.1 and 3g umts signal strength was shown as missing most of the time with no calls, sms or data connection possible. Reverted to 9.0 and 3g got back working. Will try again in a few days....
Among the other issues I have with 9.0:
- light sensor doesn't seem right (and androsensor cannot report it at all)
- proximity sensor doesn't seem right either but I'm no longer sure that the P1000 has one, will check on another P1000 still on samsung fw 2.3.3

Installed CM 9.1, working fine for me. However, I installed 20120831 Gapps, and they are working fine for me except Google Play - keeps returning 'server error' when trying to connect. Any ideas? What version of Gapps are you guys using (link please)?
Also, I came to CM 9.1 from CM 10 nightly build, no problems flashing. But now I can't seem to be able to flash CM 10; it reboots during flashing process. Do I need to go back to stock ROM with Odin or something?

Just flashing my rc1 cm9 to the latest stable 9.1. Gchrome still force close

If I may, I'd like to ask how long will your battery last from full recharge on a regular use? By regular I mean, a few games here and there, auto sync enabled, wifi on for 70% of the time, and using Mobile data when there's no wifi.
I would like to benchmark my tab's battery performance against other users.
Thanks,

1- i cant get access the wifi settings, i press the wifi and nothing shows up, and although it gets connected somehow, it doesnt show on the bar that im connected , the internet is very slow and i cant access google play
2- the tab for some reason i dont understand is getting hotter thaan usual specailly on the right side (where the power and volume control buttons), ive changed the cpu governor to on demand but it is still a bit warm
the most important thing is how to fix the wifi,

For chrome see this.
Can you confirm if you have also these issues:
- light sensor not working (eg. go to system settings-display-use custom levels and edit levels: the top left readings don't change with light conditions; or test with "androsensor")
- proximity sensor missing (according to "androsensor")
- stock sound recorder app missing (there is a sound recorder apk in /system/app though, but I can't figure out how to use it)
- torch not working/stock torch app missing
- frequent FCs with camera app
BTW do you know if there is an official discussion thread for cm9/p1 issues?

Battery Drain fixed?
With CM 9.1 I think the battery drain from 9.0 was kinda fixed, especially when connected to wi-fi. There are some small bugs like the wi-fi switch (it is on after booting but the wi-fi is turned off. Still smooth and grear UI. Love ICS!

Apparently there's a new nightly release both for p1 and p1n

Random reboots in Hyperion 8
Overall the Hyperion 8 ROM is a nice-good-looking one. However, I've found 2 major bugs(?):
It reboots randomly at least once a day.
The "Restart" option doesn't work. The phone shuts down but never comes on.
In both cases, when booting, it gets stuck in the Samsung logo. To boot up, I have to remove the battery.
Also, it takes ages to reboot, about 6 min.
Does anyone is experiencing the same issues? Any possible solutions?
Cheers.

I would say try re-flashing it following the install instructions from the Hyperion 7 thread exactly.
I have had the same thing as you when I first installed hype 8 but no random reboots and restart works fine on my current install
One problem I have with Hype 8 is that the stock browser included with the ROM will not connect via wi-fi, at all - although all other apps like Play store do, the browser only works on 3G. I usually use One Browser but that doesn't work either. I am currently using Opera Mini as that will work but I have no idea why this is...and yes I have pruned the hosts file and checked the Droidwall is not on (even if it was I have configured all apps to have access). Annoying, like the way the data toggle sometimes doesn't turn off - but hardly a game-breaker when Hype is so excellent on battery life and memory usage :good:

Thanks for your reply Stokey. In my case, I've got no problems at all with the stock browser; it is able to connect via either wifi or 3G. I wonder if such differences may be due to the build we're using. I downloaded Hyperion 8 build 2 with the default Savie kernel. Are you using the same build?
Theroretically build 2 would be more stable, isn't it? Should I revert back to build 1?

No, I only had build 1 because every download of build 2 was interrupted I am trying again now as I really would prefer not to use Build 1 for obvious reasons! I only installed it because of a weird wifi issue I was having on Hype 7 - I did all the tweaks to fix wifi but even though it was on all the time, if I didn't use it for a short while sometimes the signal icon would go grey and stay grey - forever! Although connected and showing an IP address in the advanced wifi settings, nothing at all could connect through wifi and I only had 3G - this has happened 3 times with Hype 7 and necessitated a reinstall via stock each time, hence me wanting to try 8 as I needed the wifi connection and a battery that lasted a full work day for the last 2 days.

I would say stick with Build 2 for a couple of reasons: the launcher is not a paid-app; I think build 2 uses his Hype 7 launcher which I actually prefer (sometimes less functionality suits better); if there were any fixes from Build 1 they will be included although I don't think there were any that were mentioned...
Same kernel on both builds (thank you Savie! :good but as others are saying, you can use at least one other kernel - I have never changed just the kernel but maybe that would help fix my Hype 7 issues...anyhow, I am off to try Build 2 - good luck with yours - let us know how you get on.

EDIT: Can anyone help me to get the AudioFX widget to actually do something other than be almost invisible whatever settings I use? Or suggest an alternative that works with Hype 8?

Open AudioFX in drawer app then adjust the transparency settings. Make it 20% then 40% then 60% then back to opaque. It will show up.

EDIT: Can anyone help me to get the AudioFX widget to actually do something other than be almost invisible whatever settings I use? Or suggest an alternative that works with Hype 8?

Agreed! Or use BeatsWidget included in other roms like USSrv9 and ota of JellyBlast. Its beats themed and looks cooler than the default one.

Thank you to makeouttactics and GaEuL (pressed!).
This was driving me mad!
Oh, and today whilst using Opera Mini to post on Facebook I had a spontaneous reboot - first one on Hype 8...will keep you posted.

Issues with Mobile Data - Need Help

Hey guys this is my first thread and this is an issue i've been having since i first got the device.
Well, mobile data is always connected and blue, however, sometimes when i'm doing something that requires internet, it takes a while to start actually working and showing the up and down arrows. This causes delayed notifications in apps like whatsapp.
Example:
I open a whatsapp conversation. What I should get is the "last seen" status of my contact, but this takes up two 5 seconds for the mobile data connection to actually kick in.
Is this a known issue with the nexus 4? are there any fixes someone might direct me to? It's not a deal breaker but it's a really annoying issue that I didn't have back when I was using the S3.
P.S: If it matters in anyway, I'm using CM 10.1.2 Stable and the latest Franco Kernel nightly.
Thanks for annoying who might give me some helpful tips or ways to fix this. :fingers-crossed:

try raising your voltage at 384mhz to 800mV or higher
try a different rom
try a different kernel
it could be an issue with that/those apps.

I'll try raising the voltage and report back if it's better
This issue has been happening to me on stock rom/kernel, cm 10.1.2 and cm kernel as well as P.A and P.A kernel.
Thanks for the tip

Hey man, I tried raising the voltages, but it didn't seem to help that much.
Is there any other way to fix or make this issue better?
It's a bit annoying that other phones on the same network get instantaneous mobile data.
Looking forward to more advice! :fingers-crossed:

hey guys, im suffering from this problem too, & don't know how to raise the Voltage or how to change the kernel or rom ?
