Wifi connection - HTC Incredible S

Hello, i'm using virtuos rom 1.31. It's really great but my wifi connection drops down to zero after a few minuts. I cannot download anything using wifi. Does somebody knows how to solve this problem....

Does it drop while downloading large files? My wifi works fine but as soon as I go to download large files, sometimes even 5mb files my wifi drops out although the ICON stays fully lit like it has full bars. I cannot seem to find a fix. Its annoying when trying to download 100+ mb files when your wifi drops out every 4-5 mbs

Thats right, when i switch back to mobile internet everything works fine.

Same here, are you running any custom rom? I'm running android rev 1.1.6, i've tried to play around with wifi settings and even downloading "wifi fixing" apps, nothing seems to work. Hope someone has an answer, there was a thread about this on the HTC Hero forums but they have no solution either just yet.

Anybody?

when in wifi settings, click the menu button and go to advanced settings.
set the sleep policy to never and choose "best wifi performance".
That helped mine a ton

It's already like that!

I have tryed 2 different routers @ work and home
Could be that your 3G is using background data, so it has no bandwidth left for other downloads.
Disable your Background data : Settings -> Accounts and sync -> Turn off Background Data and Auto-Sync
Can you browse the web on 3G ? What about using another gmail account ?
i can use Android Market in both 3G and WiFi
are you able to browse the web when only using WiFi ?
Solved....

Ive trued a few things ive read off forums to fix it like delete the download manager data and checking gmail settings but still. Nothing

Maybe ur over the download limit. Some providers have limits to how much you can download. So i think you should check ur provider
Im with optus in australia got a 2gig limit still got plenty left. The strange thing is i can still download through android browser. I think i mite have to do a factory reset but trying to think of ways around it koz just got the fone how i like it lol

You could try settings/applications/manage/download manager and delete data that has worked for some people but not 4 me lol. i think it has something to do with settings that go messed up by an app

Thank goodness I found this thread!! I've been going completely mad for a couple of days. I've re-flashed the damned phone 100 times, formatted the SD, repartitioned, cleared the cache, I've tried another google account etc etc. I'm with Optus too and it started happening when my JPC firmware started acting up yesterday. I decided to try JPH and I couldn't download any APPs. Currently I'm not near my WIFI so I'm not sure if that works but I'll check it out soon.
I even went all the way back to the Optus branded firmware JG4 to see if that works and that was dead too.
If it's some kind of Optus thing, I'm OK knowing it's not something with my phone. Hopefully they will fix it soon.
This is fk. Had same problem with Optus. Tried everything with no luck. Gonna ring Optus today.

I certainly hope you didn't disable the entire firewall, instead merely opened up the specific port(s) required by the market?
If the latter, could you share the port numbers, please? Thx!

WIFI direct

Does anyone know how to use Wifi direct with the HTC one to transfer moderate to large files like movies or videos.( beam/bue tooth is to slow) Everytime i try to use it with any phone it fails or doesn't connect. ive also tried third party apps like super beam/ send!/file transfer/ none of which work. i find it hard to believe that the HTC one is suppose to compete with the GS4 and GS3 but cant do any features that mimic S BEAM its a fail on HTC. if anyone could help to get this to work i would appreciate it thank you
Download Superbeam in the market.

Superbeam works fine on my HTC one. Use it to transfer between my one and my Nexus 10 all the time. Make sure Wifi direct is enabled on your phone, I believer there is an option to block it if you don't want people connecting, or something.
Every time I use it it says wifi direct fail I've tried HTC to HTC and HTC to Samsung I have my wifi and wifi direct turned on still not working I even went into the wifi direct option and manually paired with device still not working also tried a different HTC to make sure it's not mine still having same is first file was 86kb failed next was 1gb movie failed

Maybe you could try doing a factory reset or a custom rom, maybe something is borked in your os.
Have the same problem. Try to use WiFi direct with my wife's gs3 so I can watch a movie on my ps3 and her phone kept saying connection failed. Her sbeam was on and we were paired. Kinda weird. Any way on a side note any way to connect our phone as mass storage instead of mtp?

i rooted and flashed custom rom wifi direct still not working with superbeam always comes up saying wifi direct failed try wifi hot spot option....any other suggestions
MadMan3353, we are building an app that does exactly just that. The app is called Drop, and it is a simple, fast, and secure way to share files with people/devices in proximity over WiFi Direct. We are going into a limited Private Beta soon, so if you're up for the challenge, (and running Jelly Bean) then sign up at www.get-drop.com. Seats are limited, and we have a rolling enrollment, so check it out.

This is why I think Samsung in the long run is going to lose...as they copied their way to the top, they are becoming like Apple...create a closed-ecosystem solution. At a minimum you need to create something that works at least within Android....and if you're ambitious, make it work cross-platform with iOS....shameless plug...go check out what we're doing at www.get-drop.com! Going into Private Beta soon for Android first...

WiFi problem

Lately my WiFi has not been working. Im pretty sure it's my phone not my internet connection. The WiFi bars are supposed to be blue but mine are always white. I can still browse the web and some other stuff but my play store won't load at all.
I don't really know what's wrong internet connection or phone?

Why would my wifi keep turning on regardless of settings?

I'm rooted, s-off, and using stock 3.05.651.6. I use BatteryGuru, and it worked great before root/s-off, but my Wi-Fi won't stay off no matter which settings I choose.
Any ideas?

I have had the same issue before as well. Tell me do you have connection optimizer or something like that turned on? This app attempts to locate previously used WiFi networks in order to off load excess data off the carriers network.
I have the Wi-Fi optimization turned on in advanced settings, but that's it.

As far as I know batteryguru saves the location of known WiFis and when in range or near that location it will enable WiFi to turn off mobile network in order to save battery

Weird thing is, I have my network notification completely off and it still notifies me. Not sure what to do about it.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA-Developers app
Just noticed also that when I turn my Wi-Fi notification on, it turns itself off right away and still notifies me.
Is this something that could've happened on account of root, and can I fix it somehow?
