When connected to wifi, some websites do not load, and some apps like twitter, sonyliv, etc does not get internet. All the google apps works fine including youtube.
Here is a short video demo of th ebug:

Have posted this on Asus forum, there are other similar threads, but the seems to ignore the issue, this should be a priority. The phone is useless under wifi, works fine with 4g, and even when I connect to my oneplus5 hotspot.
I do not want to root or load any custom ROM, the reason why I bought this was for stock ROM. Is there a way I can go back to a stock ROM without rooting ? The issue did not exist with the firmware that came along with the phone. - Thanks.
I am also facing this issue with instagram
Asus did not even recognize it as an issue, so o rooted and loaded custom room, RR, and now Android p beta, both works fine without any issues.
Facing the same issue
Well, I finally rooted and used custom ROM, this resolved the issue for me, and also confirms that there is firmware issues with the phone with ASUS fails to accept.
Asus ignores the issue because the problem cannot be created with all wifi networks out there, strangly when I created a hotspot using OnePlus 5, the m1 worked fine. Some users think there r issues with their wifi, but it's not the case.
Anyways, if you can, just root and use a custom ROM.

hello there,
this phone is just released in my country. i would like to buy it but i found this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptg6cLdA9OU
is this problem common? is there any software to fix?
this video is too old (the rom is B133), i used both B135 and B136 now, with no Wifi probs at all
that's great. thank you.
I agree. I am also on B136 and no issues at all with wi-fi. Good Luck. I think it is a great phone especially for the price.
B136 is the pre installed ROM?
Or in other words: people that buy the Ideos X5 today will not have any wifi connection problems?
Obviously I can only speak from my experience with my own phone, but it came (3 months ago) preinstalled with B133 and did an update over wifi in the phone's update options and had no problems before or after the update. The update was about 3 weeks ago for me and I have been using the wifi almost every night since I go the phone. I am very happy with it
Can warmly recommend this phone, its great !
The price is nice, the quality is fine and the phone is getting a larger community !
If you find trouble with old firmware always update to the newer ones !
Grab them at Huawei and upgrade your firmware, they have a guide included on each firmware download pack you download.
Agree without doubt. I never experienced wifi connection problem. But only some education institute use PEAP encryption may post a problem with most Android, though not the phone itself .

unfortunately its the phone thats causing wifi dropouts in my case..
i can connect to my wifi router with my iPhone 3GS, my notebook, my netbook, my NDS, etc.. in fact X5 is the first and only device that has connection problem with my wifi router..
though i like this phone very much, i can honestly say that wifi problem does exist, at least in certain instances including mine..
So it has been established that this phone sometimes has wifi issues. The question is; can they be solved? and how? anyone got any experience in that area?
I'm on B136 and WiFi is still broken. B136 seems to have made Wifi connections a little bit more reliable, but it still drops out pretty regularly, usually when I try to update more than one app at a time from the Market. In the middle of the downloads it stops because the WiFi has become disabled and has to be restarted again.
It's less of a problem when there's only one update to download, but if there's two or more it happens quite frequently. It also still sometimes happens (though perhaps less frequently than before B136 was released) while it's not downloading anything, just sleeping (I have it set to not disconnect when asleep) or awake and connected to my WiFi network.
The unreliable WiFi connections are one of the two worst problems with this phone (the other one is the wildly variable battery life).
Nobody has a definate solution to this problem?
Is it part of your insurance btw? it is clearly malfunctioning and perhaps should be fixed by the company you bought it from...
i am using genokolar's b137 and wifi is fine ( i had problems before with stock 135).

Where are you download this custom rom? I only find one V8 in chinese forum. Is this, you'r talking about? Is this multilangual?
yep this is it!
every android version is multilingual!
thats his latest version:
http://bbs.goapk.com/thread-3177723-1-1.html
also use the google apps (GMS) from here:
http://bbs.goapk.com/thread-2875088-1-1.html
be sure to have this installed before doing anything:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130524
if you find it hard to download them from there i have uploaded them here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IMZBGHIA (use the gapps that are inside this rar)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=3DOP0APD (use this rom)
i have removed some apps he put in there (like nofrills[something like set cpu], a chinese market etc) to make it a total stock rom. just be sure the 1st app you install is Superuser.
I did some tuning to my wifi configuration file and that's all I did to solve connection problems. Just take a look through my thread in the general section with subject title "Wifi Client Tuning ... Solve Connection Problem "

Hi all
I've posted this on another forum but its a bit dead so didn't get any help.
Recently and it is really annoying but facebook and certain other websites just don't load on the stock browser or dolphin pad.
Now the youtube app seems to work fine but loading a youtube video on either browser and it really struggles. However I can go on project free tv and stream an episode of a programme no problem. Every now and then though facebook etc can work fine and then I turn the tablet off and go back on it and it isn't working again.
So frustrating because it was working fine about 10 days ago.
Thanks
Anyone? Still having this problem, very weird and annoying.
I'm having the exact same problem. All apps work at full speed but any browser i use has trouble and takes a minute or so to load a page. XDA is the slowest site for me, taking 2 minutes to load a page. I have odined twice, rerooted, flashed 4 different roms, all the same. I go to xda on my netbook and my phone, on the same wifi connect, and they load xda immediately.
Did you guys recently updated Flash Player (or had it updated automatically)? I did and I noticed all flash-heavy sites work a lot slower, some videos don't want to play at all, some sites won't even open anymore.
I'll try to remove the latest update or uninstall it completely and look for older version and post back.

well, i tried uninstalling flash but wouldn't let me. so first i disable plugins on the dolphin browser, still no dice. then i froze flash, went back to xda-developers.com and it still just sits there.
I pullled my hair out yesterday with an intermittent internet problem, which I was able to solve by Rebooting my entire LAN and WAN (DSL Modem) systems.
The details of my episode are here: OOPS
Can't post the link, but it is on galaxytabforum.net under the General Discussion sub forum titled "intermittent slow stop go wifi operation"
If you don't want to read the entire post there, just cut to the chase on the bottom line.

im starting to think that there is a problem within the tab itself. i have tried "in paris" rom, overcome rom, stock rom, stock kernals on all, and pershoots kernel with each rom. all apps work fine for internet connection and speed. its just right now, my tab, when going to xda-developers, takes about 2 minutes a page load. google.com, duckduckgo.com almost most websites instantly load. last night i changed dns servers on my tab with no luck. others have reported issues with "find on page" within their browsers, its starting to make me think that there is something wrong with honeycomb itself. when i first got my tab, the internet on any browser was flawless.
Yeh thats very similar to my problem, if not identical.
Sometimes mine works fine and then it is a nightmare (mostly a nightmare to be honest)
This was a problem before flash was updated to 11.
If ur on wifi check if u r on ad hoc mode...
You are describing the exact same problem that I encountered (see post up about 3).
If you can, find another WiFi Access Point (one that does not goback through YOUR Modem or Router) and see if the problem persists. Go to Macdonalds or Starbucks and try your TAB.
If it operates normally there, do a COMPLETE system Reboot on your internet system.

This is one of those problems, I might not be able to explain. After 4 fresh odin attempts, multiple rom flashing, I was still having issues with xda-developers.com. As of right now, I decided, hey will it work faster thru orbot, after running orbot and going to xda thru the orweb browser, now my internet problem has completely disappeared. I can get to xda now either thru orbot, or straight thru no problems. This has me wondering if using odin on the galaxy tab ,doesnt completely erase like on my fascinate. On my phone, odin will take care of any problem guarented, i dont get that feeling with odin on the tablet. After one time I odined the tab, it put a wallpaper back on I had deleted a week previous.
@superdragonpt Due to the fact that I'm not allowed to post to the original
ROM thread, I'm providing my feedback via this channel.
I've successfully updated my phone to the latest AOSP 7.1.1 stable8 ROM with Gapps nano. Although most of the phone functions are working very well and maybe a little bit faster, there some smaller issues which I want to report or maybe ask for a solution:
1. From time to time the phone seems to freeze and then reboots with the
requirement to enter the SIM pin again. I've not yet identified a fixed schema
which my help to identify the root cause of the problem. Any tips how I can
solve this problem are appreciated.
2. The WIFI connection to 2.4/5 GHz access points seems to be worse than
with the old Android 5 image. I've read that other users have experienced
the same problem but a solution hasn't been provided yet.
3. The camera problems have already been discussed in another thread. So
I hope you will be able to fix it with the next stable release.
4. What I'm still missing is the option to choose between several audio profiles,
e.g. "silent", "normal", "loud" etc. It might be possible that I've not yet found
the option in the settings. If so, a tip how I can activate the feature would be
highly appreciated.
To 1: Today the phone freezed exactly as I selected a WIFI network and pressed the connect button. After a while it has rebooted automatically and I had to enter my SIM pin again.
[STABLE 10] Bugs I encountered
- NFC (Android Beam) file transfer error
- Bluetooth won't send/receive any .apk files
- High resolution video playback bug
- VPN connection does not tunnel to Built in browser, 3rd party app works.
- Hotspot breaks when turned on and off several times
- Wifi keeps disconnecting
- Idk if package installer in this build installs slower than previous ones
New members are not allowed to post reply on the original thread so I decided to report it here.
@jayjay1413 Might it be possible that you've mixed-up the phone types?
As far as I know a *stable10* doesn't exist for the Jiayu S3 Adv(ance) but
for the Jiayu S3 Plus.
Google Chromecast
Hi, using stable 8 I haven't been able to connect to my chromecast, I returned to the previous rom I was using (TFAndroid 2.54) that works perfectly for my S3 Advnace. I tried Nougat because I wanted the split screen featrure but for me chromecast connection is more important.
Hi everyone. I'm on Pixel Experience CAF. Sometimes 4g network is very slow and I need to wait a lot in order to load a web page or when i try to install an app from play store it download ~100kb/sec. Other times it is very fast (100kb/s Vs ~6mb/s). I flashed latest firmware (June). I mention have this problem since upgraded to Android Pie (9.0). With Oreo everything was working fine.
I have another issue with WiFi. I have a Xiaomi Mi Band 3 so I need bluetooth enabled. I noticed that when BT is active WiFi is very slow. Instead, it is very fast when BT is disabled. Is there a solution for this problem? P.S. I don't know if this issue was even in Oreo.
Hi, I have a problem with mi redmi note 7 (lavender)
the problem is that the wifi gets disconnected at some distance (something normal from redmi note 7) the real problem is that it doesn't reconnect, even if i have the router with me, in the lower area of the wifi it shows the message "saved" i try to forget the network and reset the password but i still can't connect, I have to restart the phone to be able to connect normally, but after a while the problem returns.
I'm using a custom rom called AOSIP with android 10, I have already used pixel experience, Crdroid, Evolution x, Havoc os and absolutely, all have the same problem. I want to make it clear that I have already used android 10 on my redmi note 7 (pixel experience) and I didn't have any problems, the problem started after the February updates this year.
I don't think it's a hardware problem because going back to miui or a custom rom with android 9 solves the problem.
I would like to know if you already know about this subject or if you are already working on it or if there is a solution.
thanks

I think you might be onto something. In my case, the problem has been with Wifi Tethering. The phone is basically unusable as a hotspot, cutting out frequently and randomly and I think this has something to do with your wifi problem, maybe a driver issue? Like yourself, I've tried several aosp roms, all have the same problem.
Do you recall the last Pixel Experience release without this wifi issue? I am considering rolling back...

Good morning, I've already tried the most recent version of pixel experience, in fact the AOSIP rom is from May 17, 2020, practically yesterday.
Obviously it's a driver problem, but I don't understand why all custom roms have the same problem and I don't know how to solve it either (in android 10)

Could you tell me what rom are you currently using?
Could you also tell me the release date of the rom?

Currently on StagOS May 11 build. I settled on that after trying Pixel Ex, Evolution, etc as it was the one with the least hotspot issues; which isn't saying much as tethered devices would randomly lose internet connection while the phone clearly had internet and you could browse on any browser on the phone.
Since you say the issue occurred for you after the February updates, maybe you could point me to the last stable build you used so I can roll back.

I recommend all the versions that are from February, I would like to use pixel experience from that date but the page only has recent versions.
if you want a specific version use Crdroid 20200209
crdroid if you keep your old versions in the cloud so I recommend it, but I can not guarantee that it is totally stable. Pixel experience if stable but they don't have the versions of those dates.

I would like you to install the most recent version of pixel experience and when configuring the wifi, you will move away from the router until the signal goes away and try to connect again, just to check if it is really my phone or not.
Obviously making a backup before and also doing all this is optional. If you don't want to do it there is no problem thanks.

I already tried StagOs, I still have the same problem with the wifi, I also tried the hotspot and as you say if there is a data problem and in general it is unstable.
I downloaded the latest version of pixel experience and as expected the wifi was still failing, but the hotspot was working correctly so you can install it without any problem.

Okay sorry for the delay, been busy experimenting. Your recommendation of the Feb 09 crdroid build was spot on, flashed it, wifi and hotspot works like a dream, no issues at all.
After confirming that I decided to take a backup and try a recent AOSP build. I had already tried the Pixel Ex May 11 build and had the same issues so I downloaded the most recent build of Evolution X (May 17) and flashed.
So far, (Fingers crossed) I have not been able to replicate your WiFi issues or my tethering issues. WiFi did not disconnect even at a distance of over 50ft from the router. Keep in mind that these connection issues occur randomly but there's been nothing so far.
I will continue to use this build and test for the rest of the day. If I experience any dropouts I will restore to the stable crdroid build. Maybe you should try the newest evolution or go back to the stable crdroid to test if the issues are software related or specific to your device.
At this point I've been testing the latest build of Evolution (May 17) for about half a day, and zero problems so far, very stable.
I recommend you try it, may fix your wifi issues.

I am very happy that I found a solution to your problem, then I made some tests by creating an access point with my sister's phone ( xiaomi mi a1 ) and I performed the distance test and my phone connected normally. After several tests I am reaching a preliminary conclusion that there is an incompatibility with my router, I would need more tests with another router to conclude that my router is practically obsolete. That would also explain why I haven't found another thread with this same problem
good luck, tell me if you have finally solved your problem
