[Q] Wifi - problems..

Hi,
let me thank you for all the help you may give me.
The problem is i get stuck on obtaining ip address or the cell doesn't even try to connect automatically so i have to manually start the wifi connection to the network after turning on wifi.
The problem of my SGS not connecting automatically is rare, the first is not, it's actually quite often.
I looked through all the guides and sugestions but i couldn't find any permanent solution for this problem.
Note: I've used the AllShare app but sometimes even that doesn't work.
Thank you for all help

The same problem kept happening with me. Some of the fixes which I tried were
Change channel on router - didnt work for me
Use the allshare app first - worked
Set up a static ip in advanced settings - almost always worked
But I have found that I didnt have this problem with other routers, only mine, maybe because of a power problem with the router.
Many of baffling errors are usually caused by bad input power to devices.
Hope it helps

Thanks for the reply, the problem is that i use it alot on my university, where i can't do any changes to their router (or use static IP).
Also the AllShare app is indeed a fix, but only if used every time i think. I'll do some more testing, this problem is really annoying and that's a shame because it complicates the use of most of the smartphone capabilities.
So if anyone else as another solution i would be glad to hear it.
Also i'm on stock rom installed by my operator Vodafone (had the same problem on JPY).
Edit: After a very quick test, it seems that using Allshare once does work, but i had the impression that sometimes it would be needed more than once (even without rebooting). TY for the tip.

Update:
After some more tests i came to the conclusion that at home i need to use AllShare every time i want to connect to my network.
This seems to be a problem affecting several users of SGS, does anyone know the answer to this problem? Or at least an app that minimizes it?
It's quite bad and very frustrating. Thanks, for any and all help.

I had the same problem with stock Android 2.2.1 on 3 phones all Galaxy S. Dropping the packages on voip calling, internet was slow most of the time. I use a linksys wrt54g with dd-wrt, I never had problems with any other devices.
My problem was solved when I installed GingerReal. Also on Miui I didn't had any problems with the wifi connection.
Maybe is just the stock driver incompatibility with some devices.

Thanks for the reply,
I've only had bad experiences with flashing, last time i did everytime right and Odin just hanged, i almost had a serious problem in my hands.
Since this is probably the first and last good phone i'll ever have, i would really like not to kill it (also some people in my family would be very disappointed, it was a gift).
So any workaround? Sorry i'm so insistent but i think that are a lot more people interested in this. TY.

Other side can't hear

Hi all,
I have a problem that I couldn't resolve so far.
As topic says, it happens sometimes and not too often. I also noticed a small message in my local language telling me to check internet connection. I tried logging with droidwall to see what application fails to connect and came up with nothing.
I did some reading and found out it may be a corrupted apn due to apps such add apndroid. Can anyone confirm that this is the issue or is it something else?
Using Criskelo v77 atm, happened also on darky 10.1 and other roms.
p.s
switching to speaker and then back fix it for the rest if the current call.

[Q] Hanging up wi-fi

Hi, I have a problem with my LG 4x HD, after using wi-fi for a few hours it just stops and when I try to restart it the icon in the statusbar is pulsing, the switcher in the settings is grey and nothing happens. I need to reboot smartphone and after some time the history is repeating. Have You got any ideas beside factory reset and guarantee?

Odp: [Q] Hanging up wi-fi
Hi, I possibly find the reason of the problem. Hanging up Wi-Fi occur after using sixaxis app. Can anybody check this issue?

Yes even I have the same problem, every time after stopping SixAxis app my wifi gets stopped as well and I had to restart the phone.
It is because of some compatibility issue with few LG devices - This is what app developer explained and that they are working to fix this
I think it would be better if you can email them as well just your issue and no need of any other details so they fix this asap with more users complaining.

Odp: [Q] Hanging up wi-fi
Thanks for Your reply, first of all I had to make sure that it's the bug of the app not only my issue, in such case I will try to contact with developer, because it's the best app and controller for android so it would be nice make it works properly. A bit of offtopic, do You know how to map the menu button on ps3 pad?

[Q] WhatsApp Audio MIC Recording garbled?

Hi All,
I have been having this problem with any firmware based on stock .290 and .136. Be it Whatsapp or Line or Viber. Anything that sends an Audio message comes out garbled, which is extremely annoying.
The weird thing is.. this becomes PERFECTLY fine when I open the the SIM card port.. I seriously fail to see the connection to MIC performance here.. with the port being open! so it's just weird!!
I have downgraded to .257 for now due to this bug.
Can anyone on .290 or .136 try whatsapp audio messages and see if the problem exists for them too?
Thanks all!

You have 2 microphone on Z1, when you record the voice message, speak to the one on top behind Led Notification/Phone Call Speaker.
BTW, Whazzapp always had this problems.

Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the problem neither..
It's really weird because it affects normal phone conversations as well but not as much.. I can use what's and click on the paperclip icon and actually RECORD a voice clip and it will come out fine... just when I use the audio button, it comes out garbled!
So damn weird!

Probably cheap codecs and the option in Whazzapp was always like that and many reported to have problems. Maybe with the next update Whazapp will fix that but now how do that I don't know. Just use different app to record voice messages and send them via whazz.

Download the new beta of WhatsApp here before it hits the Playstore.
It seemed to have solve the problem for me

As stated in this topic. The only alternative is to click the thumbnail icon in a chat, select audio and choose what's app recorder.
That will allow u to send a voice note the old fashioned what's app way without the garble. Even still I've experienced app and phone freezes when trying to listen to voice notes via what's app. So hopefully the next update fixes it.

Thanks all for the replies...
glad to know I am not the only one experiencing this problem.
I will surely report back when I have more details/fixes

Just updated to MonX .136 and installed the beta whatsapp version suggested by slimldj..
whatsapp still has some form of garbled messages but it's 90% fixed.. it's good enough for me to use 4.3 based rom now!
I hope others will find this information useful.

I was going to post a new topic specifying this exact problem (although my phone doesn't seem to benefit from opening the SIM flap).
This garbled recording is driving me nuts, it worked fine on .257. I'm also in a Z1 (C6906) .290 based rom (iHackers).
Is there some way this problem can be solved? Any help or input will be greatly appreciated.

Hiya Aldo!
I was having this problem actually all the way until around 3-4 days ago when Whatsapp got updated. I was using the workaround by "attaching" an audio clip instead of pressing down the button to speak.
Without changing rom (Monx .136), I just updated whatsapp to version 2.11.175 and now it is working 100% fine now.. The audio comes out clear and loud when played back...
Hope this helps, please post back of your results!

[Q] Problem with WiFi on .205

Well so far .205 was good but I have run into a pretty weird problem.
I was on my house WiFi using MX player to watch some videos and I was unable to get notifications from Whatsapp, BBM, Line unless I opened the app(s) I thought it was a memory problem and tried with only data. Again watching the video on MX player but this time arround I got notified instantaneously. Then i thought it was a problem with my ISP and tried a streaming app (ChrunchyRoll) and played an episode of a random show and I didn't have any problem streaming, but the problem with the IM apps not notifying me was present again.
Any thoughts on that? What could be causing this? I don't use any "performance" apps (no Cleam Master, Batery Doctor, etc.)
Thanks in advance.

If you think .205 is the problem, you can revert back to .201 or any before by flashing .ftf file. Otherwise, try factory reset. Possible problem can be hardware related - either phone or router.

The installation is fresh from a repair the only "strange" thing it has is root (using the toowelroot method) and a custom recovery.
The problem only happens in my house and wifi analyzer shows that I get disconnected quite often and that my house's router power is abnormally low. (It usually stays into the yellow zone of the gauge.)
So as you say maybe is my home router.
