So today I sent out a picture message to my wife while my WiFi calling was enabled. (I don't have a good signal at my house so this is the only way I can do this from home without moving around looking for a signal) Every time I tried sending the message I got a "g" pop up on the status bar next to my wifi signal bar. I tried rebooting because it wouldn't send and it still didn't work. I then set it down and ignored it and it finally wend, but maybe about 10 minutes later.
The other issue I just has been happening the last couple of days is the app just shuts down when the screen is sleeping. I set my phone down and come back 20 minutes later and the icon is missing. I go into the app to restart it but is says it's on, but trying to connect and it won't connect until I reboot. Just now I had an error message stating I wasn't connected to the tmobile network and had to sign in (or something like that) I rebooted and everything connected back up.
Anyone else had this happen to??
The whole mms thing is not an issue. it sends mms using your data connection to prevent something but i cant remember what. Take a look at the wifi calling thread i know it was addressed already.

I think your WiFi calling shutdown when the screen went sleep because you may have WiFi set to sleep when the screen shuts off.

Rebooting is all fine and dandy, but then I need to have it reroot itself again. And then to overclock it I have to be at my computer.
After looking at the other thread as the first responder suggested it makes sense that the MMS get sent over data connections, so I guess if I need to send an MMS I need to have a good "cell" signal.
i am having the same problem.
from a fresh boot, wifi calling works. but once I shut the screen off, wifi calling is lost and it will not come back until I reboot again.
i am using CM6.1, and I don't know if this is a problem with CM or just the wifi calling app itself
I have this issue as well, wifi icon will go missing, when you opn the app it says that its on...from what ive been hearing, wifi calling doesnt really work that well anyway.

Hi
I can tell that the phone is using wireless due to the speed. Its just a little annoying.
Anyone else have this issue?
Masters stock 2.3.3 deodexed (rooted) with Netarchy 1.2.7 cfs @ 1.2
the same thing it show before and after i root my NS
same here.
with 2.3.1 and now 2.3.3
Yeah it's happened to me. Just toggle WiFi off then toggle it back on.
Haven't had that problem. You should try flashing again. I just heard of that problem in 2.3.2

Its my understanding that this is as a result of an app which needs to use wireless data specifically from a mobile network so it momentarily turns the mobile data radio on and then turns it off when its done.
i have only google apps and the 3G was on and the wifi in the same time ....
I think this is the issue:

T
and I have another thing! when i want to start mobile data it just won't start. to solve it I have to reboot my phone!
anybody else getting this?
Nexus S, 2.3.3, gri40, Vodafone Romania!
Sometimes turning on airplane mode and then turning it off again starts the mobile data for me. Give that a shot Bikers.
Are you guys receiving an mms at the same time? On WiFi when receiving a pic message the phone is forced to use 3g data to connect to the carrier server over 3g only to receive the pic. This is the Only time I've ever seen WiFi and 3g at the same time.
This usually happens to me when my wifi is out of range

Up until yesterday I was running 2.3.2 with the XXKB3 radio. I updated to 2.3.3 and got the XXKB1 radio. As soon as I connected to wifi, I started to experience this problem with 3g and wifi showing at the same time. So, I decided to re-upgrade to.the XXKB3 radio and I no longer have the problem.
The instructions on how to upgrade your radio are in the development section. Its definitely worth a shot. Yesterday I was not only losing wifi, but my 3g was going out also and I had to reboot my phone to get my 3g working. That doesn't work for me.

how long do both icons display together? is it only for a few seconds, or do they stay on indefinitely? if only a few seconds, it could be a wifi bug where its disconnecting then reconnecting in the span of a few seconds, so in between the 3G kicks in only to turn back off when wifi reconnects.

It is sporadic. Sometimes it comes on every 30 seconds or so then turns off. Other times, it is on indefinitely..
I read some where that having "supl" in your APN settings under APN Type might be doing it. maybe check that?
Got my phone two weeks ago and I'm getting a problem with my search button. it keeps going off by itself like some one is pressing them and the speak now screen come up.
Any one else here having the same issue? Theres people in the internet also having the same problem but so far no answers.

I have this problem too but it only seems to happen intermittently when I am in an area with a poor signal (1 or less bars).
I've also taken to restarting my phone every day or two and It hasn't happened in awhile.
I had this problem with mine and when I looked it up it seemed I wasn't the only one. Most people seemed to think it was a hardware issue. I exchanged my nexus for a new one and the problem is gone so I guess it was hardware.

I got fed up so I called in for a new one sent to me. I hope this one is problem free!
It happens randomly but yes it seems to happen more when the signal is low.
I may have found the problem but not a solution. I noticed when playing with the phone that its always in Roaming mode. If you go to:
Settings>Wireless & Networks Settings>Mobile networks>
you will see that the "Data Roaming" feature is ENABLED which I believe has to be on since the phone is unlocked and you wont get data service if that is not enabled(for me anyway). Try Disabling this feature and just connect with a Wi-fI and play around with the phone. See if the issue still occurs. Mine stopped with this feature disabled and only comes back when it is enabled. The phone however is useless if this feature is not enabled if I'm not around any wi-fi.
Let me know if I'm right. Maybe someone good can create some sort of fix. looks like a software/program issue?
Having the same problem with my Droid X. Seems to be a software issue that is affecting Nexus S phones in Canada most severely, but also Droid X phones in the USA.
I'd include the link to the Google support forum thread but I'm too new of a user...

Its not tied to roaming but to 3G. In your case turning roaming off turns of 3G.

Had the problem last year on stock gingerbread with radio KB3, seemed to go away when fiddling with radio settings.
Have it again this year with ICS. Using radio KB3.
Notice when travelling in/out coverage zones. (Right at the edge, when coverage is weakest.)

Since one of the solution is a kernel fix, maybe you can get one of the nice kernel developer to look at it to see if they can include it within their custom kernel
Dear All,
I have Nexus 4 device with stock rom and I'm facing the following issue:
When I'm not using the device for few mins and someone sends me notification in whatsapp I'm not getting it. Only when I wake up the device and open the app I'm getting the notification.
Did someone face this issue?
I'm not sure but I think this is some safe mode or something like.
Please help me with that.
Thanks,

What will 4.2.2 do with regards to this issue?
Wifi is probably going to sleep. Go to advanced wifi settings and set it to remain always awake.
This happened to me, latest franco kernel version is somewhat fixing it!
I'm using the original kernrl, didn't change it yet?
did someone using Franco kernel and stock rom?
In the mean time I Chaged thr ROM to CM 10.1 , but I want to check it also with STOCK rom.
does someone knows which rom is the original one?
wifi sleeps when display is off, so push notifications are delayed, its a problem with 4.1.2, I currently haven't found a solution and its not my modem, wait for 4.2.2,
when streaming, display must be on to complete transfers
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40065
A work around, someone pointed out in another thread, is to set wifi deliberately to turn off when phone sleeps and leave mobile data on.. when you get a notification phone will wake and wifi will switch back on to receive notification.
can confim this works, i leave 2g only on.
Check your APN settings cos mine was doing the same thing till I changed the APN settings.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I was thinking that APN should be also an issue. in the mean time I switched to CM 10.1 and this issue dissapear
Is the problem only when you are using mobile data or is it wifi as well. Have you tried it with whatsapp plus.

It's seems that I've the same problem. When I just turn off the screen I've the notifications but when the phone sleeps more than few minutes I don't receive notifications.
I have franco r71, I see if this fix the problem as someone said before.
Is this happening to everyone or just a few people (including me)?

WhatsApp on the Nexus 4 seems to be a complete and utter disaster. I don't know why but it takes 10-20 seconds to send messages via whatsapp, even when my signal is perfectly full and I could be browsing. On my old S1, it would send them almost instantly, the N4 seems to wait, dilly dally for a little bit then send them when it's happy to. I can't tell if it's a modem issue or a bug in JB but it's getting annoying.
I regularly receive clumps of 4 or 5 messages. They do usually arrive, even when in dormant, but they don't arrive like, one after the other, they just arrive all at once.
Its the standard jb WiFi issue described in Google bug report and happens to everyone.
Whatsapp is fine over 3g if.you have a decent 3g connection. In fact I use whatsapp on 2g and notifications are instant with the screen off.
As a side note, on fauxs latest beta kernel I haven't had the signal bars turn grey.

Not for me. It's fine over WiFi. Totally b0rken over 3G, takes ages to update and send messages
FYI this also happens with Facebook messenger

Can't decide what it is. Internet browsing seems fine on this phone, but WhatsApp is ****ed.
Even further problems today, surely this is to do with the baseband?
Sorry if this has been discussed before. I just can't find it anywhere.
Is anybody having any Wi-Fi issues with their S8? What is happening for me, is that, I connect to my home private Wi-Fi network. Then 10 seconds later the network completely disconnects. Then approximately 10-20 seconds later it reconnects again. It keeps doing it over and over and over, non stop in a cycle. So I completely disconnected from my Wi-Fi, and I'm using my 4G LTE. I started noticing this at home, but then as I go to other to other Wi-Fi networks it's he same issue.
I even did a factory reset to the phone because of this issue and a home button vibration issue, where the vibration would not stop even in standby mode. It was also causing the Android OS settings to even be disabled, and not let me go into the OS serttings from the Android OS taskbar menu button, or the button for the settings in the app drawer. The factory reset did fix the vibration issue, but it didn't fix the Wi-Fi issue at all.
Also, is anybody else having this exact specific Wi-Fi issue I'm having?
Thanks in advance for all the answers and feedback!

I already am up to date with all the apps in the Play Store and the Samsung store. I even contacted Samsung, and the woman on the phone on her own just completely connected me to a manager without saying a word to me. The manager ended up saying that he never heard of this and made a bug report so they could look into it. It's also not in their system, according to this manager. This was today around 5PM EST
It could be a hardware issue. Have you thought about exchanging it?

I already did. This is the second device to have the Wi-Fi issue. I just received my replacement device in the mail today around 4PM EST, which is the device I'm talking about here.
The thing I'm thinking is, that maybe if I went back to the direct cell phone providers store and did a buyer's remorse exchange. It could just be a batch of phones that have the same issue. Which more than one from the batch could be located at the same store. But since I'm in Florida, and the replacement device came from somewhere in Pennsylvania it's a completely different batch. Which the Samsung manager agreed with me. He even told me what I already know, that even if Samsung tests the phone. People in the real world using the phone, may encounter issues that Samsung never found on their own. He also went on to say that it's vital, that people in general, especially people that are tech savvy and semi tech savvy call in, because with us calling in it can help fix the issues that Samsung may have never encountered on our own. The manager also said, that there can be more people with the same exact issue, they just never called in and reported it like I have.

What kind of router are you using? Have to tried another? Go to a Starbucks, or some other free WiFi spot and test. So far with you it's been a 100% issue. I'd start looking at different things.

Like I said in one of the above post, that I noticed it at home first. But as I used other Wi-Fi's I noticed it was an ongoing issue. I've tired my home private Network, my work private network, and at a few friends houses.
The manager from Samsung, honestly believes that it is a Android OS bug.

It's not a big deal, I completely understand. So what else do you think I should try?
I also have issues with Wi-Fi similar to yours, if anyone has a solution, please let me know
Have you made sure that in settings you have a tick on "Keep wifi on durring sleep" ? Also for the sake of it, switch off "battery optimization" for all apps and see how it behaves. Also make sure you swithch off the option "smart network switch" under WiFi settings. What your phone is probably doing is constantly trying to switch between the WiFi and mobile data, or the power management puts it in sleep to preserve battery.
Well instead of getting the same same old suggestions (which Im sure you tried, all of them) you can read thru them all here in the thread that already exists:

Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep is activated. But it has nothing to do with that because my phone goes to standby mode in 30 seconds. While as soon as I connect to the Wi-Fi network, 10 seconds later it completely disconnects me. Then 10-20 seconds later it reconnects me. Then it repeats the same thing over and over. The phone can be completely in use, or it can be in standby mode, the same problem still occurs. Also the same thing goes for battery optimization, while it's on and off.
It also appears that someone else on the first page is having similar Wi-Fi issues. So maybe, a few of the many mass produced phones are having Wi-Fi issues. So maybe it's really an OS bug like the manager from Samsung on the phone yesterday was telling me.
Hi All, even am having a same problem, am here in Saudi Arabia and when i spoke to samsung Persons they are not showing an exact root of the problem and not even willing to exchange my mobile. this issue is with my mobile since 3 months and am waiting for upadte , i got 2 updates till now but none solved my wifi problem, i donno what to do
I can say this only happens to me when I have Bluetooth on and my watch connected and when I'm on a 2.4 signal vs a 5....and if by chance is your phone with sprint or verizon?
