Whatsapp wakelocks - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So recently many of us have been having whatsapp delaying incoming/outgoing messages. I'm trying to investigate the issue and would appreciate it very much if you guys could help me by posting a few simple things:
As there are many threads about the problem occuring when connected to Wi-Fi, I will dedicate this one to people who have the problem while using mobile data only.
- How many times Whatsapp has awaken your phone according to Wakelock Detector, and over how long.
- Is Whatsapp working perfectly for you? Do you ever receive delayed messages/have problem connecting to whatsapp (ie. trying to send a message and seeing a clock for a long time)
- Have you removed/modified anything in your phone (any system apps, google frameworks/services etc)
Thanks in advance... Hope we can solve this problem.

I had this problem too in the past. I found out it was due to my modem that was working as a modem and a router at the same time. I fixed it by turning off the router function of it and using a seperate router. It's been working fine since then.

It maybe due to a firewall blocking outgoing connections on port 5223.

Anyone who doesnt use WiFi?

Data Connection always on...Please help!

Hi Everyone...I am having a HTC HD, on WM6.5. I have activated hotmail/live and gmail push email on my HD.
My data connection is on automatically everytime it needs to sync for new emails, but it will not switch off by itself after sync and even when it is idle again.
Anyone could point me any software to have this data connection switch off after idle for a period of time? I read in the HTC pro section that someone mentioned about issues with answering calls with the programs installed to disconnect data after sometime when phone is idle. Will this happen to HD as well?
My battery is running off quickly when data connection is on, would really appreciate if anyone could help me to solve this.
Millions thanks in advance!
HDTweak will do exactly what you want and not cause any side-effects or problems.

when Im running e.g. the liveview app my phone keeps some kind of freezing after a few minutes, first I tought it is app related but now I revieved my OBD2 scanner for my car and its just the same with the app "torque".
is this a hardware related problem or something wrong with this ROM.
did a HR several times and reflashed the ROM.
Edit: I noticed when bluetooth recieve or send data I cant get any other wireless date like on wifi or on radio.
please help
Seems to be a one time event with the data problem but the main thing keeps annoing me

I don't Know, but if you have a Bluetooth PAN connection to the internet, then it should be not possible to have another connection to the internet. IP routing to the gateway would be confused if you could.
There are tools that "group" several separate internet connections into one virtual one.
no Im not using a bt PAN to connect the inet, only normal bluetooth data usage
Push
Just only me who is facing this annoing problem?
Same problem with OBD2 :s disable GPS reduc freeze loop. But not fully (30 minutes). Next time i will turn off Data conection.
Every time i've freeze now i see torque try reconnect to OBD2, seem like BT of SGT turned off or time out
I am having the same problem. As long as I have bluetooth turned on, it will hang the Tab within 30 min. All bluetooth connections are definitely gone. Turning off the bluetooth won't help. The only way is to reboot and never turn bluetooth on.
BTW, I have tried connecting LiveView or a normal bluetooth headset. Both cause the same problem.
I am on JK2.
It seems it is bluetooth driver conflicting with any other data connections.
Did a further testing. Disabled Wifi, but doing data communication via 3G network while turning bluetooth on. The tab hangs in a few minutes. Found a process called 'btld' sucking up all the CPU circle.
Any ideas what 'btld' is?
Thought this should not be a hardware problem because bluetooth works fine when all data connections are off and Wifi/3G data works fine when bluetooth is off. It must be some sort of default setting isn't correct. If this is the case, then root would be a must before manually tuning any parameters.
Found root cause. It is actually the SonyEricsson LiveView software causing troubles. After removing, everything goes well.
Checked on SonyEricsson's web site, it seems Froyo is yet to be supported.
try to use WO Webcam B-Lite out of market, you can open a bt connection by pressing activate and then while running, close via taskmanager, voila the freeze begun
I've got galaxy Tab and galaxy S, and torque badly freezes the devices almost every time I exit the application. It cannot be an hardware fault since I use lot of bluetooth devices and always 3g connected, never had issues. Just with torque, and I don't have any "sony liveview" thing.
Reading on the comments of Torque it seems that also other devices have the same freeze issue (especially a phone called "Evo 4G"). Many months ago I sent a mail to the developer explaining the bug but he bumped me away replying that the app is tested and working on GalaxyTab (and obviously it's not true, or he did some mistake in testing). Now lots of people with this Evo 4G are complaining and the developer is trying to fix. let's hope..

Wireless dropping out

Hi all,
I have been having and ongoing issue with the wifi connection on my Xperia X8. When I download a large file (20mb+) such as a podcast via Google listen the wifi will drop and reset. Sometimes, but not always, the wifi will be totally disabled at this point. The wifi will usually drop somewhere between 5mb and 25mb of data downloaded. Google listen throws up a time out error at this point. I have to say that it feels like a process is kicking in and dumping the connection rather than it being dependent on the amount of data. It will also occasionally do the same thing when using other apps that use the wifi (I have noticed it when using Weatherbug and also Words With Friends), although I have not noticed it doing this when using Opera Mobile.
I have done a full reinstall on the phone once already and it continued to have the same issue. After the reinstall I only installed Google Listen to rule out any conflicts. It also happens more frequently on my wifi at home (BT home hub) than on the wifi at work (Sky netgear). I did not experience any issues prior to the last Android update.
The reason I have decided to post this is because I think I may have stumbled upon why this is happening and it may help someone with more knowledge than I to get to the bottom of the problem. Today I turned of sync and the problem vanished. I have downloaded multiple podcasts today with no issues at all. There has been no other change to the phone.
Has anyone else been suffering similar issues?
The phone is also standard. Not rooted.
Cheers.

[Q] Problems with WiFi and data connection

Hello
Sometimes when i have wifi and data enabled at the same time, my internet connection stops working.
But if i disable wifi or data i will get my connection back. Even just cycling wifi make it work for some time again.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Or does anyone have a solution?
I have been reading around and think it may have something to do with Internet Sharing and Interop-unlock.
i had the exact same problem, but worse. i had to switch to airplane mode and back to get internet working. and it was a very frequent and annoying problem.
for me updating to 8107 over zune was the solution. no more connection issues.
(internet sharing however i do not have anymore - but as you said, it could be related to this -so screw it i don't share my internet if it crashes mine )
This is a very common fault (there are several threads on the topic.)
Call Samsung support and ask them to get of their asses and fix the problem. I called and they said that they had no other report on that same problem..
Have the same problem, but I have to restart my phone for it to start working again. *__*

[Q] Help needed! please

Hello everyone, and thank you for reading.
I've had an issue since I've bought this phone and after looking around and trying a few different things I now turn to you for help as my last resort.
The problem is that the phone keeps disconnecting from the internet. I don't use a data plan so i only use the internet and all the related apps when i am connected to a WiFi network (Home or other). But what happens is that I'm connected one minute and sending and receiving messages on Facebook messenger or even whatsapp and the next minute it just drops the connection. I have to actually go into wireless settings every time and hit connect for it to reconnect, and it keeps doing this over and over.
I figured that maybe if i got the updates (following this technique: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rEt6wPZDnA) for it that would fix it, but apparently it didn't do anything. I currently have windows 7.8 installed successfully with all the other updates that were found.
If there's anything you could do to help me i would greatly appreciate it.
Cheers!
