[Q] Phone hangs when tethering? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is a bit weird. I'm on MIUI 0.10.22 for what that's worth. The issue is that if I make my N1 a wifi hotspot with a password, after a while the phone hangs and I need to do a battery pull. If I do the same but leave the hotspot open, unpassworded, it ticks along just fine hour after hour. Neither use causes the phone to warm up unreasonably. Anyone has experienced this?

using CM 6.1 RC1 and have none the issue.
MIUI is still in testing, probably it's a known problem? can anyone confirm?

Wifi causing trouble with O2X

I know that there are random reboot/freeze issues with this phone but I have noticed that my issue seems a bit different.
My phone goes into reboot loops and freezing only when I turn on the WiFi. I'm patiently waiting for the LG "update fix" but wanted some advice from the experts.
Im in afghanistan and only have until next week to return the phone. If it is a software issue then I dont mind waiting but if it is hardware then I dont want to get stuck with a 600.00 paperweight.
I know Im shooting in the dark but I really would appreciate some thoughts or advice.
BTW - I have had the same issues on custom ROM's and stock ROM's. I think I damn near flashed the phone with every possible thing i found on this board, haha.
well it seems like my issue is still isolated to wiFi. The phone has almost no reboots and very little freezes when WiFi is off. any ideas on if this is a possible hardware or software issue?
was it with every ROM you tried the same ?
It happens with every rom but I hate to get my hopes up but it seems to have start happening not as often. right now Im using this
[ROM][21/4-11]TK-ROM Vanilla + LG = true. v0.5.7 (Fr12)
couple of hours so far and it is better but not perfect.
Mine has just recently been randomly rebooting but was fine when I first got it. It never seems to reboot when I'm stationary only when I'm in the car or riding my bike. Twice it happened in the same location on the drive home from work which got me thinking it could be location related. The gps wasn't active at the time so I tried turning off wifi/cell tower location in the options. I managed a two hour bike ride with no reboots today whilst using gps tracking and listening to music. Yesterday the phone wouldn't go more than 10 minutes without rebooting.
Could it be bad location data in some mobile phone masts are making the phone crash due to a bug in the software?

wifi issues with ics

Hey, my wifi always goes out and needs to be restarted while using ICS. at first it would happen like three times a day. now its a couple itmes an hour. it is very very very annoying. does anyone know a fix for this???
I don't have this problem, but do you have a wifi-sleep timer set up? Maybe an app is doing something?
No i dont. This issue was posted before in the threads but never had a solution. I always wipe EVERYTHING so i dont know why this happens with me.

It's not just you. I get MANY wifi drops as well. I don't use it often, but when I do, I get a drop every 15 minutes or so. It happens very randomly: as in not when I'm loading a page, just randomly I'll see the logo go white then disappear.
My solution? A frustrated sigh and a switch of wifi on and off.

when using fullscreen apps and just even regular browsing its a b*tch. I tried the wifi fixer app but it didnt help. Im clueless
This has been an issue for me since the first ics rom. None since have fixed it or addressed it to my knowledge.

I did no have this problem on the AOKP 4/12 build, but do have it now on the 4/30 build. No idea why.
The audio issue is also ALOT worse for me. most of my phone calls do the silence thing where there is no audio. Today it caused me to run into alot of trouble. i hope these issues get fixed soon. I think it was the bluetooth updates in the changelog that caused the problems to occur more. As they are supposed to be bluetooth related. Unforunately i might have to go back to gingerbread
I am able to use 1x data & WIFI on ICS Rom only. Neither WiFi or Data works with Stock ROM.
Before It used to work in Stock ROM, but now it does not. So I am sticking to CM9
I have this issue too but I use juice defender. I only really use it for 2 functions
1. Enable WiFi when I'm home (constantly on) and disable when I'm away
2. Turn off data at night from 1am to 6am
when i flashed ICS the effectiveness is shady. A lot of times when i turn on the screen wifi is disabled but will reenable after a few seconds during the day. also at night sometimes it won't disable until later than 1am and will randomly enable and disable at like 4 am or something. sucks because i'll randomly get a bunch of notifications for emails twitter etc. and it will wake me up.

WiFi Disconnect

Hi all, Im running the latest leankernel 1.8 with stock 5.0.1 ROM. After long periods of deepsleep the WiFi will turn itself off, and wont reconnect until i turn the screen on. (eg: after sleeping for the night, when i turn the screen on in the morning, the wifi is off, then reconnects after a few seconds). I don't have any of the battery saving features turned on, and the wifi is set to "always on" in advanced wifi settings. I've searched Google and XDA and come up with nothing. I cant be the only person this is happening to. I have 3 other phones and 3 other tablets, none of which have the same issue. Has anyone run into this problem on their nexus 6? Any help or ideas/ opinions at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Anyone?

I've run into this exact issue. Even happens on 5.1.1
Did you ever end up figuring out the issue. I feel like it might be app related rather than an Android issue.

Never figured it out. Only happens on nexus6. I use wifi keepalive app, seems to do the job without impacting battery.

GPS drops

Seem to be having an issue that I can't take care of that I've tried everything that I know that I believed could be causing the drops. The issue I'm having is any time I turn the screen off while driving my GPS will lose its connection after about 5 minutes. I was also losing data so I figured it was an application causing that issue with that problem I got resolved by removing the battery saving application called battery guru. That was actually shutting my data connection off with my screen off so I got rid of that completely but I still seem to have the problem with my GPS drops. My data stays up just fine but it seems like clockwork every 5 minutes the screens off I'm driving and I get that voice GPS connection lost. All I have to do is click the back button in Google Maps and reload my route and BAM its right back up and going. Now I can leave the screen on and I will not lose the GPS signal whatsoever until I turn the screen off. Have went through all the settings that I know of and of course the only battery saving application that I had installed and I can't seem to find the issue. I also use the search tool and couldn't find anyone else with a problem like mine. Does anyone have any suggestions or have seen this on their device? I'm beginning to think this may be a hardware issue I'm not sure. But if it was a hardware issue you would think I would be losing the connection all the time not with just the screen off which leads me back to a software issue. I'm going to keep freezing apps with titanium to see if I can find another culprit. I just don't have anything else installed that should have anything to do with that. Thanks in advance for any help for insight you may have.

Is called a nexus. Google stock has always had that issue. Unfortunately nexus users spend most of the time locked in a basement and never happen to use gps, therefore they will say their gps works just fine.

Really? Interesting. Don't remember that on my galaxy nexus but don't know that I ever used the gps honestly. Anyone else confirm this?

FYI my gps DOES work fine... But I forgot you know my experiences better than me. My bad. Stupid response.

My GPS on my Nexus 6 is and always has been amazing. (Thanks for reminding me to compare that when I get the 6P). I use my GPS daily to keep Waze up when I drive to watch for cops, traffic, etc. Even when I know where I'm going I use it and Google play streaming over Bluetooth and my GPS keeps connection even in Manhattan.
I would recommending getting an app called GPS status, it has a few settings to keep GPS active etc, which should solve your problem. However I have no clue what could cause something like that...

Wifi Shutting on when scrren off

I have a Nexus 6, flashed with the 6.0 factory image.
I have my wifi set to always on (for tmobile calling). After then screen locks it shuts wifi off. This is great for my battery but bad for my staying connected. At work cell coverage is spotty and without wifi always on I can get 30min + delay in getting text/calls. This has caused a few problems with my boss thinking im off screwing around and ignoring him.
Anyone else notice this? or have a way to keep wifi always on.
My wifi randomly drops since I updated to 6.0. It is annoying. I am not sure if it is tied to the screen shutting off or not.
Yeah it's getting supper annoying. I'm at wits end with it. Might flash back to 5
Probably it is related to this bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=188909
When I turned off my WiFi, it was still running, showed in the battery history detail. It was OFF, so I expect it's also OFF there. But it's not OFF. Although today, I don't have that problem.
So please STAR that bug to get more attention.
Have you all tried HellsCore kernel with the "old" WiFi drivers that he built? Apparently it resolved issues for people.
Happen to have a link? Had hoped to stay stock for awhile but ATM its killing me.
