Losing signals when connecting to 2TB portable storage on B04 - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Every time when I connect to my seagate Backup Plus Slim 2TB I lose signals for 1 to 2 minutes on single sim sometimes on both sims.... It's not a big deal but want to know is this effect badly on phone? Yeah I lose battery pretty quick when moving data 1% in 3 mins guess so..

Try with a powered dock, maybe the HDD's consumption is too much and the modem loses power?

wifi less power?

Hi guys,
is possible that the shift wifi is power-less than others notebooks?
i explain, i've a 20mb connection at home and a wi-fi zyxel router, i connect to it my shift and also my asus g1s. when i download something from internet my asus download approximately from 1,5mb to 1,8 per second. and is a good thing. If i download the same thing from shift it don't go beyond 800kb. i've never seen a download like on asus.
This have sense? don't know why.. is not a big problem, but is courios.
have same here,
At home my con.speed is 1Mbit. Slow!
At work is normal 54...
I guess it's wireless router that is the problem. (Mine USR, has more problems...)
I get this too.
I can get 17m/bit on my PC which uses a wireless card, 8-10m/bit on my daughters HP laptop and 4-5m/bit on the Shift.
You have to remeber the specification of the device can also have a bearing on the results. My Core2duo 3.6ghz, with 2gb of highly overclocked RAM, RAID0 Raptors and IP35 Motherboard, will ultimately process download speed faster than the Shift would. Plug a P2 450mhz based machine with a 8gb hard drive and 128mb RAM into a wireless network, believe me, you won't get tremendously fast downloads!!!
Performance issue here too :
Using a Netgear WNR854T and I can see the Wi-Fi connection switching constantly from 54 Mbits/s to 11 Mbits/s. Getting really low data rates...
Yep, on the Shift I'm on about half to a third of what I get on my Presario (true d/l speed vs connection speed). In fact depending on 3G performance I can get better d/l speeds that way...
I find in general wireless strength to be sub par on the Shift. My HX4700 PPC has better range and speed than the Shift. Because I use the shift to mainly just surf pages it isn't an issue...but d/l'ing large files in emails is a pain.
While we're discussing wireless on the Shift, is getting it to work under SnapVue a priority in the project? I see that and the SD card as the 2 key issues (for me anyhow)...another donation coming to help with these elements and as thanks for work to date.
my wifi works fine, seems to work better than on some other devices i have

wifi isn't a priority because the driver doesn't even exist for WM6. will have to recompile CE5 one if that one is working at all.
so that'll be a big pita
also, wifi will only work if SD works.

Thanks- SD card working would be a big bonus indeed...I got about 7 meg left on Snap Vue...and with no calendar sync'd...
I guess the only reason why I mentioned WiFi (apart from my naivety about drivers etc) was the duopoly we exist in here in NEw Zealand means 3g/HSDPA data costs are horrific. Try $40 for 200meg (yes, meg) a month! Vodafone have been known to say that New Zealand is their most profitable country on the planet (read "most ripped off"). And if fact the news today talked about our commerce commision bashing them around for lying about their cheap rates to an audit group...it p!sses me off to no end, but what am I gonna do?
Anyway's look forward to further Shift developments.
I have to review my initial comments. Last night I had very fast speeds in spite of the less than stellar reception showing for the strength...so I suspect the wireless strength shows as being less but actual impact on speed might be minimal....

Eye Fi SD Card and Wifi Tether

I just bought one of those Eye Fi wireless SD Cards for use when I'm out and about shooting for work as a gimmick. Now I have it configured to work with my phone, so I can upload off of my phone's internet connection. Though the size per photo ranges from 1 mb to 6 mb.
My Question:
In everyone's opinion (or fact if you know for sure), do you think (or know) whether or not T-Mobile will be able to tell this is being tethered? Or do you think it looks like a cell phone photo being uploaded?
I know if I do it a lot, I'll rack up a lot of data usage ('unlimited" 4g plan , IE 5gb). Just wanna get some more info on the subject.

Extremely Slow USB Transfer Speeds

Has anyone else been experiencing this? It takes an hour for my to transfer 1 GB of data. The same folder took only a few minutes to transfer between my Droid and X2.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or maybe it's a hardware problem?
16GB TF/Prime 1.4
Same problem here (Prime 1.4).
Does someone know how to have a faster usb connection (1h for 2Gb)
Thxxx
Stdu
I just did a quick transfer speed test by copying a 286MB file
Copying to the internal storage took 25 seconds (transfer rate : 11.4MBps)
Copying to a class 2 , 8GB microSD card took 45 seconds (transfer rate : 6.35MBps)
At those speeds a 1Gig should not take much longer than 1min 30sec to the internal memory and 2min 41sec to a Class 2 micro SD card (which is like the slowest speed you can expect from a micro SD card these days), unless you are moving thousands of tiny files, in which case it will take longer, but even then I doubt it should take 1hr.
P.S: 16GB TF running stock 3.1, connected to a Windows 7 32bit laptop
was your dock battery low when you tried to do this? could explain why it took a while.
Or don't use the dock at all? I never tried transferring anything while docked, didn't seem like it would've worked, but I guess it does work.
I still don't have my dock :-(
I tried to remove AVG and made a reset but still same problem.
I will try tomorrow to install the Prime 1.5 maybe this will help
Thx
Or you can transfer via wifi. Lightning fast =)

Perhaps, if the folder had video files, you selected the option to transcode the video.

I only get 750KBps when copying files over wi-fi using ES File explorer; and I don't think you can expect anything above 1.0~2MBps when transferring from one wireless device to another wireless device on a wireless G network. That is still more than 10x slower than USB. What method are you using ??
Are you copying only one single big file or many smaller files..the speed normally drops significantly when copying huge amount of smaller files..
either way, one hour for 1Gb seems absurdly long....have you tried the stock rom?

[Q] 3G connection problems after leaving WIFI on Note 3 [UK]

On my Galaxy Note 3, when at home I am connected to my WIFI. When I leave the house or switch off my WIFI the phone seems unable to connect to the network (in this case Three) and the browser, email and any other data apps state they cannot connect to the Internet.
The only way to resolve it is to switch on Flight Mode and then turn it off again. I saw a comment in the reviews for the Note 3's keyboard fix that one other person is experiencing the same as me.
Is anyone else having this problem and do you know of a permanent fix? The only info I can find is a similar issue on the Note 2 at time of launch which look to have been corrected by a patch.
i have this problem so i flashed h3g uk firmware and it kept failing, so i flashed back to uk btu firmware and im stuck with the exact same problem. no idea how to fix either,
p.s my problem only seems to be with google now, play store and sometimes on any app that uses internet i get news feed error no connection ect..
I am on Three network and mine works OK.

Solution
I think I have found a work around to this annoying problem. It was losing the ability to use any data when I left a WIFI spot I was connected to, or when out and about and the phone picked up an open WIFI spot. None of the WIFI advanced options made any difference. It would affect 3G data too, I'd lose all data access until I toggled Flight mode off & on...that was the only way I could get it working again other than restart the phone.
I found a post about a similar issue with the Note 2 when it was first released and it mentioned a WIFI power saving mode. It turns out you can get to this from the SeviceMode screen by dialing this number *#0011# (ServiceMode will start as soon as you enter the second #) - assume it is the same for all. Once in ServiceMode, tap the menu button and chose WIFI. You will then see a WIFI Power Save Mode label with a button underneath. Tap the button to set it to OFF.
I've been testing this all day, normally I'd lose data at least three times, sometimes more, while travelling but so far today everything has worked flawlessly ... no loss of data connectivity. From what I have been reading, switching off power save mode does not affect battery life despite what you might think and I've not noticed any unusual battery drain today so far. So if you are experiencing the same annoying loss of data, try this before you take your phone back. Hopefully this is a software issue that will be fixed in the future.
I swapped the phone
Hi,
I had something similar, except it wasnt wifi related, it happened after I lost the signal for a while (eg, in a lift/elevator).
I tried a new simcard, and that didnt help (also Three UK).
Then I got the handset swapped for a new one at carphonewarehouse, and it fixed the issue, so I put it down to a lemon unit.
cheers

on my s4 and n3 i did more than 10 tests each on wifi and 3g with phones simultaeneously, both on same network, both held in my either hands, both using speedtest both connecting to same server, both on the three network sims on the one plan with unlimited internet including tethering (both pans in my name), same location, same times tests were done.
both on 3g and wifi the n3 is MUCH MUCH slower than the s4 both on three network and same wifi
********************* on wifi on 3G
S4 PING TIME 32 to 173 66 to 86
N3 Ping Time 30 - 37 73 to 1110
S4 upload speeds 8 to 17.79mbps 1.65 to 2.27
N3 upload speeds 7.11 to 12.58 1.74 to 3.77
s4 download speeds 17.79 to 22.38 6.61 tp 7.68
N3 download speeds 7.93 to 12.58 mbps 0.92 to 8.04
the numbers are not just it, even during speed tests i was losing wifi connection on the N3 a couple of times and see the same happening on streaming youtube where it keeps stalling on wifi unlike the s4. surely there is something wrong with the hardware of firmware
Looks like the WIFI setting only helped and it has not solved my problem. l now lose network data connection less often when leaving a wifi zone but it still happens. More worryingly on two occasions now I have lost all access to three including calls, texts and data. Toggling Airplane mode brings everything back to life but this makes the service unreliable.
Sometime I also have this problem. This is similar to when I went overseas, I turned off the data roaming, but it always unable to connect to data when I returned. Usually I have to reboot it.
same problem
Same problem any one can help without custom rom

Just got this alert as it was in my spam box hence the late reply.
Had done this comparison video of the note 3 versus nexus 5 WiFi speeds on same router and nexus 5 was giving speeds of up to 50 Mbps and the Samsung galaxy note 3 was giving 0.5mbps plus drop outs! See video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-XvFPwTAGA
The router works fine with my 3 nexus 7 tablets, 3 Tegra note 7 tablets, Samsung galaxy note (original), 2x android mini PC, 2x smart TV's from Sony and LG, 2x smart bluray players from Sony and LG, laptop, smart camera from Samsung, Panasonic stranger, my NAS drives, 2x old HTC desire phones, a few other old phones from Sony and Nokia and media player from samsung and archos, the only device that ever had a problem with any Router is this Samsung galaxy note 3.
Main problem happens when there are open WiFi networks around our you have selected the auto detect in settings. Here is the solution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjL8JbSQCvw and now I get 50mbps with same phone and router! So it was **** Samsung software to blame!
Now I have triple sim adapter in phone and all three give me 3g signal in Many areas.

I have a Note 3 and this always happens to me when I return from travel overseas. I turn off mobile data and data roaming and use Wifi, but am never able to reconnect when I return. The first time I fixed this by rebooting. This time I tried restarting my phone, removing the battery, turning off Wifi Power Saving Mode by dialing *#0011#. Fortunately I was able to fix the problem simply by toggling Airplane mode without having to reboot. Hope this helps.

i have same problem. but i'll wait another solution that permanently fix it without toggling airplane mode.
Same issue
I have the Note 3 & the same issue I'm not a fan of the lollipop look so kept my Kit.4.4.2,
I don't use tethering I play Clash of when I can but it never connects until I turn mobile data off then on this is a pain
i have no solution just having a moan about it.
I use CM Browser

Removing data from my faltering phone.

Hello everyone. I am having a problem with my Turbo 2. I am hoping someone here can give me some ideas or options to resolve this. Ok so recently my turbo 2 won't take a charge via the charging port. I have been using my wireless charger to keep it going and that's a small nightmare unto it's self. The rate at which it charges is beyond slow. So with my phone being under warranty still Verizon is going to replace at no charge. Here is my delima. When I got the phone I put in a 64 gig sd card and then integrated it into the internal memory.. from what I understand though is that the card is now only good inside my turbo and that if I try to use elsewhere I won't be able to read the data. I have a **** ton of my KLWP, KWGT, (wallpaper and widgets ) Zooper, and about 35 gigs worth of my other theming apps, data, icon packs , apk's , music ,pictures and wallpapers. You name it I've got it all ( you might say I like to theme my phone. Just a little). With the charging port broken and the card intergrated into the internal memory how do I get that data off the card without using wifi as my wifi is broken at momenrt.
Thanks in advance.
If your droid WiFi works then try xender app from play store and transfer your data to other device (phone,pc,etc..) you don't need router , xender uses WiFi direct thing between two devices connection, hope this helps , good luck
