Wifi dropping on custom roms - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl

I have a problem with custom roms, I have the SGY Duos.. with customs roms, my wifi randomly disconnects or drops. though it says it is connected there are no internet data coming, I cant browse, youtube or whatever. i have to toggle the wifi off then on again just to get the internet working again but it is annoying, sometimes it drops in the middle of my downloads or while watching videos. I don't have this problem when I am using stock rom, wifi works perfectly on stock.. Any Ideas how to fix this or what is causing the problem? I really like custom roms but I cant tolerate the wifi problems
(the only customs I only tried so far are XDuos by Kenjboy and EvoX 2.1 by b16h22 though it is less on EvoX but the problem still persist. I also use Compact Kernel v1.2.6)

make sure wifi sleep is disabled in wifi advanced settings
goto wifi settings
press menu button on phone
select advanced
find wifi sleep policy
set to never
if that doesnt work its a problem with your rom/kernel if it works fine on stock rom

you may have a wifi script in etc/init.d or a build.prop entry that is causing it then

Re: [ROM][NIGHTLY] CyanogenMod 9 for Motorola Milestone 2 (Android 4.0.4)
This is kinda sad, that I can't reply directly to the ROM thread, but here it is, I just hope someone will tell them, or see it to adress these problems correctly:
There's a couple of problems with this ROM. First of all it loses the data connection after sometime of inactivity. Browser won't load anything, asking to check the connection. Going to settings -> data usage -> mobile data switch -> turning it off and then on solves the problem, but it's kind of annoying to do that five to six times a day.
Secondly - just after flashing this ROM keyboard backlight was working fine. But after installing the gapps it stopped. Just won't work. ((
Third(ly))) - Apollo app crashes at random when trying to listen to podcast/music from sdcard. Also annoying. Disabling data connection seem to solve the issue tho as it stopped crashing yesterday.
Fourth - some sensor shanannigans when you're trying to use chrome (games are fine with it) while charging. Random zoom-ins and stuff.
Fifth - and most terrifying. Sometimes it loops, as if I was repeatedly taping the screen at the center or somewhere near it. Can't even reboot when it happens. Power button to lockscreen seem to solve the issue.
Otherwise this ROM is smooth and good and I like it a lot. Using it for a few months now.
Big thanks.

The Data connexion loss is a recuring bug for some, mostly people who have a Carrier that use roaming (ie : use another's carrier's network). No known fix for know, but some people seems to have it working "better" by disabling data roaming/national data roaming in options, but it's not for everyone, since some carriers require that to be toggled for data to work.
For the Backlight on the keyboard, be sure to check if the automatic gestion of automatic backlight is activated, it's required for it to work. There is too a "fix" for the problem in the last 5/6 pages of the main topic from memory, but don't recall it exactly, so you'll have to dig to try it.
No idea about Apollo, but it seems to have quite some quirks, and most people use other players so not sure about it, maybe start by checking the Apollo dev's page and market comments to be sure it's not related to Apollo but to the ROM.
The "random sensor shennanigans" while charging is something that happens to a lot of people, i think it's a multi touch bug from the kernel, but not sure (ie : not really solvable by the dev, unless he finds a way to remake tezet's fix (i think it was tezet) or we all use CH kernel since it seems the bug isn't there in this kernel [ wtb a way to use custom kernels :/]).
Your last problem is a weird bug, probably linked to the ROM, but i must admit it'll be hard to pinpoint, since i don't have it but my brother do, while both phones are the exact same model, and flashed the same, in the same order, with the same sbf/rom versions and so on.
I guess you can try to make a full wipe/factory reset (only backuping data you REALLY need to keep like contacts/sms/call log and so on) and redo your phone config, because as far as i know, the only difference between my phone and my brother's is that i had to did that again after i screwed up a couple times, installing an app that was bricking the phone (took me a few wipes to identify it), it might be the reason why i don't have it and he does, or not.

[Q] wi-fi reconnects one time after sleep... annoying...

ok, i started to get a bit pis**d off by this bug...
i've tried several roms (cloudy3.3, somboons stock, somboons thai food ones) and i still can't trace what is causing this...
here is the situation:
device is in screen off/sleep mode, wi-fi is turned off in sleep (no data is turned on - and that is ok)
when i turn the screen on - wifi turns on after few seconds - that is ok
after a minute or so - wifi turns off by itself, and reconnects again - and it stays on until i turn the screen off...
at first - it didn't bother me much, but it just started to get annoying and it pis**s me off because i can't find the culprit of that bug...
i've tried several things:
- reflashing the roms (clean flash)
- removing xposed mods one by one (i use 3 of them - g3tweaksbox, flat style indicators and xtoast)
- stock and dorimanx kernel
- changing wifi router channel (i'm running dual band router - 5ghz/2.4ghz, it makes no difference on which band i'm connected)
did anyone else notice this bug?
i googled like a MF and the closest thing i've found was connected to nexus devices on lollipop (similar reconnection issues, but worse)
thanks in advance...
I can confirm - having the same situation after switching to Lollipop. At first I thought that switching to 5G wifi solved it, but still the issue remains. Have you tried different kernels?

i've tried stock kernels that came with the roms i flashed and dorimanx on all...
i didn't try xceed (or whatsitcalled) kernel...
i somehow doubt kernel is the culprit of this...
i'm pointing my finger to either xposed framework or some router setting...
only thing i didn't try so far is using the pure stock rom for a few hours without installing xposed or any additional apps i use regulary...

Selftoggeling Wifi

Hello ,
I am on DeoXPer Pure MM 3.0 (Touchwiz) Rom what is an really great one.
But now after some weeks (installing this and that) I noticed whenever i disable wifi the wifi-icon starts to blink. It is alternating within ca. 1.5 seconds. Its not only a visual effect - in the wifi section the slidebutton ist alternating too. When I touch the button i can reactivate wifi and the near wlan is connected. The problem is that i would like to deaktivate wifi sometimes to safe battery. This strange behavior is very batterydraining. I wiped memory reinstalled apps (with data via titanium) but at some point the missbehavior reoccours. Do you have any hints for me to identify the misbehaving app or config?
Thanks in advance

I thought I was the only one with the issue lol
Google is up to something me thinks as when I turned the gps on today the wirless scanning re activated.
I have used alot of roms but I always go back to stock as I have had less bugs that way. If I was to flash another rom I would choose Omega rom or just stick with stock and a custom kernel. Cheers.

WiFi doesnt turn on

Wifi doesn't turn on....clicking the quicksettings shortcut doesn't do anything
Manually turning on wifi also doesn't seems to work
But hotspot is working fine.
The problem began yesterday all of a sudden .
Dirty flashing ROM doesn't do anything
Any solutions?????? Pls do reply

Try different rom and see
I think the issue is hardware related
I've Google's and found out that it can be a hardware problem
I've tried almost all ways I've found in different sites to solve the issue but doesn't work.
Too much heat might've caused this issue
Using x thermal fast charge mode and heavy usage of phone should've caused serious damage I think.
If u guys r using X thermal mod and fast charge mode then I suggest u better not use ur phone while charging...because this pushes cpu temperature way beyond

LTE fix? Stops working after a few minutes - need to reset phone

Hello - my issue is this:
Data/LTE fix? Stops working after a few minutes - need to reset phone
N910F - tried stock, and various roms - same issue (actually i think on stock it worked best but im unsure now)
cant find a fix anywhere - any good souls out there who know what to do?
your time is much appreciated.
Does only the LTE connection stop working (so it goes down to H+ for example) or your mobile data connection in general?

Good Question.
No it's still up and the connection shows that only "upload" up arrow is lighting up, but the down arrow stops lighting up.
It may sound super stupid, but can you access the internet or do any other internet related applications work? I assume it doesn't, otherwise you wouldn't have started this thread, but I just want to ensure.
Because at the moment, it sounds like a bug with the "connection display" to me.

I WISH it was just that
unfortunately, all internet applications stop working - i contacted the telephone company and they agreed to reset the connection and that I should turn off and turn on my phone in about 15 minutes - see how it is then. Will post my findings later - there are many threads on this topic on google - but I felt better posting here on XDA. Appreciate the help in diagnosing.
You're welcome!
Just post your results later if possible.
Did you modify your device before the problem accured? Maybe it's the fault of root or a custom ROM you are using?
still nothing - going to use stock rom and test the findings. I dont want to sell the phone but I feel I have to now...
According to your last post, I assume you're using a custom ROM? If yes, got back to stock ROM and test it again, just as you said. I guess your custom ROM (if you're using one) is the problem.
not fixed - going to take to a service shop
Hmm, that's a huge mess. Do you still have warranty? (Although I guess it's voided by playing around with custom ROMs...)
And do things like normal calls work?
