Hi all,
Wonder if anyone has experienced this. My Touch HD (stock Orange ROM) is really jerky when playing Youtube videos through the client over Wifi, but fine over a 3g connection..
The Wifi connection is plenty fast enough, the Mrs has an iPhone, which works fine.
Anyone got any idea what I can check? I've made sure everything is turned off.. bluetooth etc..
stuck!
thanks
Mark
Hi, easy one this :0) Go to the settings tab select communications, in the bottom right tap settings, then tap wireless lan. Once there select the power mode tab then move slide all the way to the left for best performance. Always works for me, hope it does for you :0)
Sadly not mate, already tried that!
OK so this is REALLY weird. If I have nothing else downloading at home, and the youtube player is downloading it's jerky.
If I start a download going on my laptop (usenet - canes my connection) then what HAS buffered on my Touch HD plays fine. The moment I stop the download, it starts to be jerky again.
Almost seems like the throughput to the phone is killing it somehow, weird! have tried all sorts of settings on my router, but no dice.
Really stuck as to what to try next :/
Must admit until buffering is complete, I too get slightly jerky playback. Although this has always been the case with every Windows Mobile device I've had. Sorry I can't help you anymore m8
:0( Good luck with it.
Background downloading slows the device down, so it cant play the video smoothly. Go to youtube app settings and turn video playback quality to fast download. That helps, but the quality is awful.
I use the high quality, and just wait the video to finish downloading.
It's not just the fact that it's downloading in the background because it's doing that over 3g but plays fine, it's something specific to Wifi.
It's also not just slightly jerky, it's REALLY bad.
I mean.. I've watched plenty of reviews of this device where they've streamed youtube over wifiand it.screen fine..
I wonder if upgrading the radio would help? or is the wifi stuff done by the rom?
Worth a try, my HD works much better with new radio 1.10.25.25 + Custom rom Black Pearl 1.7 lite.
will have to give that a try then. The stock Orange rom is good apart from that but a bit slow.
Just finding picking one to flash to a touch daunting, too much choice!
OK, so I downloaded and flashed to panosha Black Pearl v2.1 HD ROM.
Works fine, is VERY nice and fast Also updated my radio version to 1.12.25.16 but the Youtube thing is still there!!!
I'm going to try it on someone else's wifi connection as soon as I can, but for now, anyone got a clue?!?
OK, I've tried three different roms, and even tried two other wifi networks- same problem.
The device is generally slower when connected to a wifi network, not just youtube. I guess it's just more noticeable when playing YT videos.
Really lost now ;(
Could be that once you are connected on WIFI the youtube player automatically selects the best quality video for you to view, increasing system requirements.
At the same time as trying to view the higher quality video the WIFI also uses a fair bit of CPU power. Try downloading a file on WIFI with everything else closed and you'll notice your device is a lot less responsive until the download is completed.
Only a guess though.
Well of course, but you'd expect a device of this spec to be able to play it without stuttering all over the shop whilst nothing else is loaded...
Hi there = I've got the same bleedin problem!
I am on orange payg 3g, Dutty 2.1 extreme rom.
I never had the problem with the original (orange) total pants rom, but I've also updated the radio to 1.12 so perhaps it's an issue with the radio. Have you tried 1.13 the latest?
It's nowt to do with the youtube settings for sure, it's most definitely wi-fi related. I've noted the i-player mobile app is wildly out of sync on the audio too and never used to be that bad.
If anyone has any ideas or tweaks please let us know. thanks!
Maybe its because when you connect to wifi network it says that rx speed is 1mbps (it should be faster) and the real download speed is around 30 kb per second and i think that that is not enough for playing realtime high quality videos (needs buffering more often). When you set option to best performance that will just increase your transmit power and you will get better reception (but the speed still remains). Maybe that is the problem. Any solution on how to increase the RX speed?
Hi there, i am from singapore. I am also experiencing the same problem with the youtube client from the stock rom. i got mine from starhub! the video is jerky! need help!!
Anyone on the T-Mobile USA have any drop/lag connection issue when playing online games such as dragonplay poker? (same thing with WSOP etc.)
This happen to me just two days ago. My signal bar is FULL on high speed.
I did not make any software changes to my phone and did not drop it either.
I am on 4.2.1 android
I have tried to remove, reinstall and reboot the phone and still have the same issue.
I have no issue when using chrome to browsing the web or getting on facebook.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think I know what the problem is.
Did a speed test and my PING have 951ms. So I think this is more of a tower issue with t-mobile ?
Good day all,
I got my N4 a few days before Xmas 2012. It's the best Android experience yet but I have a big problem:
The signal on my phone drops randomly when I'm on mobile internet (H and E -- haven't seen 3G yet). Randomly means sometimes once in 30 seconds or once in 5 minutes. The signal disappears for like 5 seconds and then pick-ups again and connects to the internet. Wifi is not turned on.
Has anyone had this problem or can direct me to a thread that discusses this? It's really annoying since I sometimes do remote access (teamviewer, etc) via mobile internet and have subscribed to an unlimited use of mobile internet which is quite expensive in my country. My money is wasted if I don't get constant connection whenever I need it.
Is it a hardware problem or a software problem that the next OTA update will fix?
I previously had an HTC Sensation (in the same locations that I get the dropped connections now) and there weren't any problems at all.
I've tried Googling but I have come up with nothing. Replacement is not an option since N4 is not yet officially sold in the country and I just got this from a local vendor who imported them. I do have warranty and I can give it to LG to get repaired if it is a hardware problem but I need to be sure first since it will take weeks for it to get assessed and repaired.
ROM: Stock 4.2.1
Carrier: Globe (Philippines)
Thanks!
Check this thread. We're discussing similar issues, though no full solution has been found yet.
so, I have a couple Sony cameras that have the wifi/NFC feature..... which is great because I can transfer full res photos to my Note 3 wirelessly either wifi OR NFC (NFC method is a little faster). It's a great feature because there are times/situations when the Note 3's camera just can't capture the scene (especially in low lighting environments).
But the problem I'm having is... EVERY single time after opening the app, my phone stops receiving service from the carrier (Wind Mobile, I'm in Canada). I can't make calls, text or get internet/data service. Yet, the "4G" and reception tree would indicate that I have service. The only way to solve the problem is to restart/reboot my phone... which can be a nuisance
I'm wondering if anyone (by any chance) have had this issue, and if it's a bug with the app... who or where can I report this too
thanks in advance for any help

Try asking the developer on Google Play:

I am using 3 yr old redmi note 3, I am facing a problem of network connection frequently. Whenever I play online game I lag badly, in morning time my ping is 250 something but in evening and night it becomes 600 plus. And also my network become stale and I have to switch to airplane mode and then back and then it works fine till I leave it idle for sometime and it again become dead. I don't face any problems while downloading movies on my amazon prime video and it gets downloaded at speed of 4 to 5 Mbps. Then what is the problem. Is it network issue or my mobile handset issue.

The easiest way to understand this is to try another device.
You can also ask people who use the same network and tariff. If they don't have a problem, it's obvious that the problem is your phone
