Online radio streaming on nexus stops with screen off. - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have you guys have the same problem?tryed all the radios on the market..they stream perfectly on wifi ,but when i lock the screen it just stops streaming.If i turn the screen back starts as normal.Any idea how to get over this?

No problem for me with lastFM.

This should work ... but it doesn't
Just in case you haven't tried - in the settings menu, Wireless and Networks, Wi-Fi settings, then press menu again and find 'Advanced'. Here lives 'Wi Fi sleep policy'. It looks promising, the obvious move is to set this to 'Never'.
But it doesn't solve the problem. Like you I'm finding that it is a problem with all radio streamers, some worse than others. If I turn wireless off and use 3G its fine.
Thanks for posting the issue. I thought I was the only one.

No problems with TuneWiki over WiFi and 3G...

i find that even if you set the wifi never to sleep it still does. i frequently use aftp to transfer movies and stuff to my phone over my lan, so ill set it to transfer like 3 gigs of stuff and go to bed, even though its set never to sleep the socket still gets closed at some point at night. so id say your problem lies with wifi sleeping.
also some online radios stop automatically after a certain amount of time incase you arent listening anymore to save bandwithd

Maybe its in the app settings. You didnt specify which app it was also...

This might help
When you connect Wi-Fi make sure to turn off your cellular network. N1 has this weird problem where in as soon as screen is off, it drops the wi-fi connection and goes on to cellular network.
So if you switch off ur cellular network it maintains its Wi-Fi connection even when the screen is off.

i use mainly "AOnline radio" but i have tryed pretty much all from the market and all do the same. trying with the settings now..post if any change.
edit:yea still stops...strange try with gsm off and still same thing...is it there any solution to get over this thing?i just liten now with the screen on) eats the battery..it's ok but why not better?

The Nexus one activates some kind of energy saving mode as soon as you turn off the screen. This makes the WiFi connection very laggy, though stable for me. This is independent of the WiFi sleep policy. There's a bug report because of this for Sipdroid and I've also seen this issue while being connected to the phone via SSH. The connection is just fine as long as the screen is on, but if it's off, there's about 1 second delay.
However, I never had the problem you describe. Droidlive, for example, works just fine.

i will check droidlive myself right now...thank you for explinations..is there a way to talk with cyan and maybe he could overpass that wifi sleepy thing.
edit: also noticed if you ahve a download or something and turn the screen off goes very slow..so this problem i think really have a priority to be solved.
edit2:still stops...what would be the thing?wifi priority changed.do you have any type of settings?full app?

I'm listening to a ShoutCast stream with AOnline right now, using WiFi, screen is off. Works perfectly. Do you see this problem with other access points, too?

SLightworkaround....
If you can keep it plugged in...set the SCREEEN TO NEVER SLEEP...under settings>>>applications>>>DEVELOPMENT>>>STAY AWAKE... hope that helps!

This is the problem yes... Just try to ping your N1 while turning the screen off/on... Ping jumps up as soon as the screen is turned off...
For me Streams stop when I have a weak signal to begin with, which does not get better when turning the screen off
"KeepScreen" might help...

Wifi driving me crazy!

I posted this in the general forum but got no replies. Is there any way to use direct push without it turning wifi on all the time? Every time I make a phone call or loose reception wifi switches itself on. It is extremely annoying. I am constantly turning it off and almost every time i take my phone out of my pocket wifi is back on. Does anyone else get this? Can I tell direct push to only use the cellular data connection? I know it is direct push because if I enable it the problem goes away. Please help!
Am I seriously the only one with this problem? Cause its drivin me nuts. When I turn wifi off, I want it to stay off. No suggestions?
push should automatically alternate between data and wifi. it gives wifi priority before data.

What what what? Your wifi turns on auto? Never heard such thing neither ever happened to me. Seems too odd since in the kaiser wifi only turns on when you activate via key combo or in the control panel! Don't u mean ur data conn is always switching on? Maybe it's cause of the rom you have!
uh use your imagination dude.
It automatically goes to wifi if it's on.
ChumleyEx, That's not the issue here.
The issue is that WiFi automatically turns on after a call, when it was OFF beforehand. JKingDev confused the issue in his OP.
The problem is not exclusive to the Kaiser either. My HTC Vox (WinMo 6.1 Standard) is doing the same thing.
Until reading this thread, I hadn't made the relationship between push activesync email and wifi being automatically turned on after a call. I still have yet to confirm that the issue exists without Push ActiveSync enabled.
One further peice of information - it only seems to be an issue after WiFi has been manually turned on at some stage of the phone's current power-on session.
i.e. If I reboot the phone and don't turn WiFi on manually, I can make/receive calls without Wifi turning on automatically.
Once I turn wifi on then off again, then make/receive a call, Wifi will automatically turn on after the call.
And it's very inconsistent as well, which makes this doubly frustrating. For example, I've just tried to replicate the issue using my examples above, and it's not happening now :-\
Perhaps it's only an issue after calls longer that 'x' seconds? Max call-time I tested was 13secs.

Are you on EDGE or 3G?
On EDGE while in a call the data will be put on hold. That could mean that if your call is long enough the push connection will timeout, and it will try to use Wifi to maintain connection (as the goal of push is for it to be constantly connected)?
Just thinking out loud, I've never used push myself.
Hello,
I'm experiencing the same problem since I "update" the Touchflow 3D with a communications tab. Before that I didn't noticed thi.
Symptom are exactly from the post here upper.
* When I'm in a call after few seconds.
* I used Exchange ActiveSync
* Diamond last official ROM

WiFi App interference?

Is it possible for an App to interfere with the WiFi connection? I've downloaded plenty of third party, torrented apps and I've been noticing that my WiFi will work for a few pages and then stop loading, throwing up an error saying "Web page not available" showing the little Android. This would cause me to disable WiFi and go strictly with 3G. Enabling WiFi later would help with a few more pages until it wanted to die again.
After I uninstalled ALL of my apps and unrooted the phone, I've noticed that the WiFi works again (so far at least). I still have the same 1 bar signal from across the house, but it isn't giving any more errors.
I constantly used task killer to free up memory, so I don't think those apps would have made a difference in the sense that they may have been taking up some bandwidth or the such.
Any clues guys? Thanks for any help.
Same
I have the same problem. I rooted and did the settings.db. My wifi will turn on and connect but 20-30 seconds later it just turns off on its own. I haven't unrooted it to see if it fixes it though.
How did you unroot yours?
Thanks
Like, I'm pretty sure that's just karma, dude. Harsh vibes from people like me that make software for a living reaching out and disrupting your chakra centers. And your WiFis.
That and using Task Killer in the first place. Not needed, causes more problems than it solves (and it solves almost nothing on Galaxy S).
I am in the same boat--just started noticing it today when I got home from work and turned the phone back on only to see I wasn't connected to wifi. When I connected to my network again I noticed the 3G icon stayed on the screen with the wifi connection symbol, where the wifi icon used to replace the 3g icon. After a little while, it was gone.
I have rooted and removed some of the AT&T apps but nothing else. I havent sideloaded any apps either. It usually take me a couple of tries to connect to my router (WRT54GL). Sometimes it also seems that my phone turns off wifi by itself.
I hope this isn't a symptom of the battery cover antenna. Does your WiFi signal show as weak in the strength readout?

It does actually turn off wifi by itself! I did the following last night and haven't seen an issue since. As a new user, I can't post links: androidforums.com/samsung-captivate/130163-wifi-connection-turns-off-when-sleep-mode-default.html
From androidforums.com:
By default the wi-fi setting is set to go to sleep (and use cellular data instead) when the screen is off, which will most likely happen while you are streaming music as well as other things. To change it so the wi-fi never turns off, go into the phone's menu -> wireless and network -> wi-fi settings -> tap the menu button and select advanced which has an option for wi-fi sleep policy that had been defaulted to sleep "when screen turns off". There you have the option to change it to "never" or "never when plugged in".
Did a little more playing around with it, finally had to reset my router to maintain any type of consistent connection after restarting the phone. One weird thing is that my old iPhone wasn't able to connect to the router consistently last night until the reset either--it has never had any issues in the past.
After the reset, the captivate did maintain a consistent connection--I browsed a few websites and streamed part of a show from my computer using Allshare.
This morning when I turned on the phone wifi wasn't connected so I went into the settings and looks like the phone had attempted to connect unsuccessfully. I clicked it again to connect and it connected without any issue and was fine until I left for work. The whole thing seems a little wonky, as well as it should automatically try to re-connect if it fails the first time if network is in range, or at least give you an alert.
I just set up tdogz suggestion above, so we will see if it helps.

Before I unrooted the WiFi wouldn't work with full or low bars, not sure of the strength readout.

Running into the same issue, I am positive it is a software issue. It only seemed to happen after I flashed my phone with the Odin One click downloader. Dunno if it is coincidence or not. Going to try clearing the user data from the recovery window to see if it helps. I also notices on the power widget, i cant control GPS from there, blue tooth as well i think.

Huzza! I figured my issue out, may be yours as well. Did you do the sideload hack with the settings.db? Turns out you need to change the owner of settings.db to system:
Code:
# chown system settings.db
After that, I was good to go. The logic behind this is that settings.db tracks more settings than just if you can sideload apps or not. I'm betting the system is trying to change a value in that file and it cant after the hack, so various systems fail.

Wifi slow to wake up on CM7

Hi,
When I leave pickup my NC after letting it sleep for a while everything works fine except the Wifi is off. After a minute or two it will come back,but I usually get frustrated and just toggle it off and on manually. Is there a fix for this lazy Wifi reawakening?
Jerry
I have the same issue. It also happens when I reboot.
Any fixes?
Not really a fix, but if you run WiFi Analyzer it will bring wireless on quickly.
Frank
Sure you all know, but you have the option to leave wifi on, even when the screen is off. This way wifi will be on when you wake the nook. Go to settings-wireless and networks-wifi settings-advanced (menu soft key). Then change the wifi sleep policy to NEVER.
Some would say this will kill your battery, but I haven't noticed a significant difference, and don't have an issue with wifi turning off. It is also helpful with public networks, like my work, as I don't have to continually deal with IP address conflicts with all the ipads around.
Peace

I'm pretty sure I tried this already, but still get the same issue.
On MiRaGe(built from CM7) running from Rack's dual boot on uSD, I couldn't get wifi to turn on at all. The solution I found in another thread, was to install Wifi Analyzer from the Market. I did this, and after fiddling around in it, I was able to get wifi to turn on. This is only a work around, but, it works.

Wifi does not auto-connect when screen is off

I have a wifi issue that is a little different from other I have read here.
Issue: When my phone screen is off, it will NOT auto-connect to saved Wifi hotspots (eg, home, office) within range, until I wake up the phone (turn on the screen).
When it is connected to the Wifi hotspot, it will keep the connections even when the screen is off. (non issue)
I have set "Keep Wifi on during Sleep" to Always, and set "Sleep mode" to off. "Power Saver" is off too. Mobile data is off (I turn it on only when I need it). I checked battery usage, and Wifi is constantly on, just that it does not connected to the saved Wifi.
My question/issue is, is it normal for the One to not auto-connect to saved Wifi hotspots within range when the screen is off?
On my old HTC EVO 3D running ICS, it will automatically connect to the same hotspots without the need to wake up the phone (turn on the screen).
My One is still using the stock Rogers firmware (1.29.631.4)
UPDATE: I found that this appears to happen only when the screen has been off for a longer time (more than a couple hours). If I have waken the screen up an hour before it entered the saved wifi range, then it seems to auto-connect fine. Need more testings.

I do believe it is normal. It's to conserve power your phone would have to have a wakelock to connect to another network draining power. As I understand it the ONE puts the wifi into a power saving mode when it's not connected so it's not constantly draining your power while driving. Once you wake the screen it will then connect as it assumes you want it.

Should that be an option to turn that off, such as the "Wifi Sleep Policy" I saw from some other rom? Or the settings I mentioned above disable that behaviour already?

Don't think so. The wifi sleep would turn the wifi radio off which isn't happening. Oh quick thought check the network and make sure the phone is set to auto connect that would do it for sure!

Nevermind isn't there. Maybe I'm thinking of stock android or maybe I'm thinking of another OS.
Can anyone else confirm if this behaviour is normal or not?
So if I don't wake my screen, I will never get any sync when the screen is off and I just get back into wifi range?

As I have indicated in my first post, this has been set to "Always" already. Are you sure that works for you?
What is the phone not doing that you want it to do? Just turn on auto sync if you want your email and FB updates to be waiting for you. Or is that not working?
Quick test. Put your phone to sleep with gmail autosync push mail on. Turn off data and only enable WiFi. Then send yourself an email from a computer, if you get a notification on your phone while it is sleeping, then it is working. Or you can place a voip call with viber or send yourself a viber text from another phone.

It is not auto connecting to the saved Wifi networks when I go to work, or when I go home, with the screen off. I have to wake the phone (press the power button) and you can see that it will connect to the saved Wifi networks. The FB notifications and Whatsapp notifications are pushed, so they don't require auto-sync to be on.

If my phone is already connected to the Wifi networks, putting it to sleep will NOT disconnect it from the Wifi network. It only happens when I changed from one saved network to another (home to work, or work to home) with the screen off, then it will not auto-connect. I have tested that and I'm not getting the notification in that situations. I have to wake the phone up to trigger the auto-connect.

Is your wifi toggle always on? Or do you turn it off once you leave a certain network? The only way the device will auto connect to a saved network, is if the wifi toggle is already turned on before you go near a saved wifi network.
If you want a saved network to automatically turn on wifi and connect to a saved network, you will need some thing like juice defender. It teaches itself to know when you're near a saved wifi network and it will automatically turn on your wifi toggle on and connect to the saved network. Then once you leave the area or lock your device, it will automatically toggle off wifi and disconnect from the wifi network.

Not sure what you mean by "wifi toggle always on". My Wifi (under setting) on the phone is always on. I never turned it off. Under Power History, I can also see that Wifi is always on (un-interrupted blue bar).
I contacted HTC support, and they asked me to change the WiFi band frequency from "Auto" to "2.4GHz" and reboot the phone. It seems to have fixed the problem so far (after a couple days of testing). Although it would have been nice if they can fixed the problem properly.

Yeah, I just got the One almost a month ago and seriously thinking of returning it because of this issue. I wish I wouldn't have rooted it because since I did for some reason I can't get ADB to recognize my device. I've tried everything my noob brain can think of to fix it and the wifi issue but nothing works. I see that no other developers have a fix either as no apps or threads here give a solid solution.
I might give AT&T the money to warranty it and just get another device but I want that to be my last resort.
Personally, I think it might be an isolated hardware defect that was addressed with later devices which is why it is not as wide spread and therefore doesn't generate a need to find a workable solution.

No, I believe you have to be S-Off to do that, or else you need to flash the firmware. Have you trying reinstalling drivers or try on another computer to get ADB to recognise your phone?

i'm using the stock ROM but i did unlock and root. i am using a asus RT-N56U with WPA2 personal AES encryption for security. Phone set for best wifi performance, wi-fi band on auto, keep wi-fi on during sleep.
I can connect and it will work usually especially if i turn off wifi then turn it back on. However, the problem exists that the length of time the connection will remain with the ability for loading webpages/video is unknown. It could be 2-5 minutes, but i've also tested it and its been able to hold a connection while constantly streaming a netflix movie.
I'm wondering if it could be resolved by setting my phone to connect to my home network via a static ip? seen things related to that elsewhere. It is very annoying and troublesome to have to constantly turn on/off the wifi when im sitting in the same place. I could be reading a webpage then click a link on it and then it will fail to load even though showing i am connected. Then i have to switch on and off. This has happened plenty of times within 30 minutes i've had to turn it on and off 3-4 times. To me that is not "functional".
is it something with my phone or router? or both?

you definitely shouldnt have to connect with a static. it may help but what about when u r in public do you still have the problem?? if not then maybe u should try a new home networking device or play around with the security setting on ur router.
my wifi seems to work fine other than my speedtest results are only 3mbps up. i should be getting as much as 55, i used to get up to 40 on my gs3. i am totally stock, with the same settings.

Do you have sleep mode turned on, in settings, power? Or power saver?

Maybe try unplugging both your modem and router for 10 seconds and then plug them back in.
