If your wifi is unstable try this!

I had installed a wifi booster app from the market and didn't see any difference so when I uninstalled the application my wifi connection at home became unstable. It kept slowing down and freezing so I got my board and started surfing the web and found this solution from gs3 reviews website. It worked like a charm! Wifi back to normal.
White Hot! GS3.

just tried this .. well see how this works out and come back and post my findings. good find.

That does work but Wi-Fi will suck down a fair bit more juice. At least it did for me. Cycling Wi-Fi also works but more annoying. I believe the culprit is actually my aging wrt54gs.

Open it in a new tab.

This only works until you reboot the phone. Then it resets it to "on"

This has been posted so many times

Thanks I just turned off the wifi option. I will try it out for a while.

I'm pretty sure this is the same as "best wifi performance" on the one x. It maintains a better connection because is disallows the phone entering sleep mode. Could be wrong however......

You can use the "anycut" app from the Play store and select the activity named "wifi debug screen" which will create a direct shortcut to that menu.

Losing wifi passwords

Hi guys
i have noticed after the update to kitkat
My saved wifi passwords are reseting for a reason
Does anyone has this problem too?

Yes I have it to every time I reboot phone I must put my password again! Look in build prop for this line: ro.securestorage.support=true and make from true in false
Then save! And reboot phone! After reboot it can be that you must put once more your password and then it is good! Let me know if it is working ok?

*muses* Did I not already answer this question on the T-Mobile Forums? Don't suppose you go by "FrancineB" there?
Did you disable Auto Network Switch?
Don't suppose it has something to do with the firmware version? Mine remembers the WiFi passwords without issue... Even after the 50th reboot.

I have the same with my non rooted Note 3 Android 4,4,2.
I lose all my stored wifi settings/ paswords randomly .
I think it is after rebooting, but I only notice it when I am going to another place with a different WIFI router, checking if I am on line. There I see all the stored wifi connections are lost.
Can be weeks without loosing them . It happened three times now in a period of four months or so.
I have many wifi addresses stored on my ( super duper) Note 3.
Huib

After weeks without problems today I lost all my WiFi passwords again.
What happened was that I was in a Skype voice call that hung.the only thing I could do was reboot.
First I was happy the Wi-Fi settings where still there but next morning they all were gone.
I guess android synched wrong?
Normally when I reboot no passwords are lost.

Having the same issue from time to time, i just back them up....

Hi guys!
I have the same problem with my Note 3, International version SM-N9005, updated with 4.4.2. The phone is fully sock, no root no nothing...
Sometimes my phone lost all my saved wi-fi passwords, it happened yesterday, happened again today, i didn´t reboot the phone.
This is very anoying and i dont know what to do, its a new device with only 4 months, i really like it a lot but this is driving me crazy..
Any help or solution? Did anybody here with the same issue solved the problem?
Thks in advance!

Same here, once a week all settings gone. 2 colleagues have the same phone (SM-N9005) but they lose them less often. one of them never lost his wifi settings for now.
Is this perhaps related on installed apps that some app is bugging this settings?

I wonder if there is an update in course to correct these issues. They're getting too much... I am so sad that we can't freely root our devices because Samsung doesn't intend to update Note3 so soon..

Happened again today, yesterday i restore my wifi settings with Kies, and today morning all of them are lost again.... i´m getting really tired of this, i love my phone but this is nuts!!!
Does anyone here have a fix or at least an explanation for this issue? I can´t understand the reason of this issue, the device it´s not rooted, so i don´t think that a app could access and/or modify/delete the wifi data.

Perhaps we should look in to comparing firmware, apps and versions?
I'm not experiencing it.

Well, here it is....

It has happened to me as well. Probably around 3 times in the last two months. For me though I've never rebooted my phone when it occurs. I'll have wireless one minute look at phone later and they're all deleted. Quite frustrating.

My Sony SP LED Bar is Flashing red and green

Hey guys
My Sony SP LED Bar is Flashing red and green
that happen suddenly for the 1st time
its happening while i am charging the LED is blinking Green and Red
Sorry for bad English
Any Idea?

I noticed the same about a week ago, but it happened once, and last weekend I reflashed .205 (not for 'LED problem') and I ain't see it again but was wierd indeed xD

Its charging.led ?

Once you plug the charger led bar wil turn red first and then orange (10-89%) or green (90-100%). Your flashing led probably means your charger isn't well connected because it may start charging, loose connection and start charging again

You could also make sure your charger is connected properly so the charging won't restart every second

That way you won't have to disable notifications.. The flashing is caused by the phone disconnecting and connecting to the charger for some reason.

The changes in cpu governor from the setting's performance options may lead to problems. So DO NOT Tweak with it. If you really want to tweak the performance then install custom kernels. Hope it may help

Phone heating & Frequent restart issue [FIXED]

Hi,
My friend bought this new phone 2 days back. He is having serious heating and restart issues. Is this phone really defective or just his piece? Anyone able to use this phone properly, I can see lots of threads with same issues.

Turns out the frequent restart & heating happens when you enable the Double Tab to wake and sleep options. I have disabled all the 3 options and now it seems to be working normally!
You can try it too, go to Settings -> Display & Lights -> scroll down to advanced and uncheck all the options.

The problem exists in my phone as well.....however I am experiencing new drawbacks like if the phone is kept in Airplane mode the battery gets exhausted within 2-3 hours....this seems to be weird....:crying:

My phone reboot when idle more than 10 times a day ,
My phone reboot when idle more than 10 times a day , please give a solution without rooting
The device works fine when using it , when idle it reboots ,tryed factory reset as well

Hi bro,
I got my YU on April 11th in my hands. There isn't really such serious problem on my phone. But if i use Camera for long then rear top portion of the phone heats a quite but never faced random reboots. Besides the System_update_service is constantly keeping the CPU awake doesn't let to enter into deep sleep easily, so we can disable it and enable back when there is a news of OTA rollout. Backup and Performance is marvelous
Current bugs in my observation:
1. Color enhancement can't be permanently disabled. It auto enables after unlocking screen.
2. VPN disconnects randomly. No issue with Mobile data and WiFi.
3. Sometimes on disconnecting a tele call, the screen would stay black. So here Double tap to wake is the savior. As the power button won't wake up the phone.

Hi Sir nice to see you here also,
Heating problem is due to the Snapdragon 615 processor,
Its was also present on Htc 820,
So its normal phone will heat up slightly if ur using for long time likr 30 mins at stretch.

Yes if you use the phone for long it will get heated. But the problem posted here is excessive heating even without using the phone. This is happening due to bugs in the Kernel, which has been addressed by CyanogenMod team and should be fixed in the lolipop update..
