GPS lock failing after 10 to 15 min - Nexus 4 General

Hey guys,
just wanted to know if anyone is experiencing the same issue as described here:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/mobile/prfUDZA7M2s[1-25-false]
This group is about the new Nexus 7 (2013) but I read some other cases here on XDA where other phones with 4.3 are having the same issue.
I tested my Nexus 4 with 4.3 today and could confirm it (yet). Still testing is in progress.
I just want to know if other people can confirm this and also what kind of configuration they are running.
Currently I am running stock 4.3 leak with the WiFi ini change. Thats all.
To check the GPS in detail I use the app GPS Test: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest

[Q] Since Update 2.3.6 Wifi disconnect,reconnect

hi all
Since i updated my Nexus One manually with the here provided Update 2.3.6. My Nexus One loose WiFi every 10 Seconds. On Google Support they are many Threads about this. For Example :
google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=3251939ebbad21a3&hl=en
Many users have problem with this annoying bug. I wonder why here is nothing to find about this.
Anyone here with the same Problem since 2.3.6. ?
Can´t understand why no one cares here. The Google support Forum is full of the same complains about WiFi rendered useless by 2.3.6.
Nexus one
Nexus S
all areas
Same Problem after update. WiFi drops every 20 seconds and reconnect.
Is here no one with the same problem ?
I believe its been mentioned in a number of threads...
Happens to me as well, I hope Google addresses this issue.
It isn't that I don't care, but I haven't had the issue with my phone (granted, I am not running stock but am running a CM7 nightly).
I am not sure what good it would be to chime in and say that it isn't happening to me. I think a lot of the consistent xda forum respondents aren't running stock, so they probably aren't having the issue.

Stock android 4.3 (GE) crashing router

So i've noticed that a lot of people have trouble with nexus (stock android) devices crashing various routers. Losing the connection every few mins for the entire network including PCs.
Has there been a fix for HTC One yet?
My router is dlink dir 655
HTC One running android revolution 3.0
Auto frequency bands
Wifi optimization
Never keep wifi on during sleep

Where did you read about this (link?)? I had this happening to me when I had my nexus 7 but it never occurred to me that the nexus device could have been the reason. Co-incidently, I have sold my nexus now and I don't have this problem. Weird.

Do you guys know of any way i can keep a log of wifi issues on my phone? I've tried wifi analyzer but it doesn't show me what's happening.
Looks like this problem has already been posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2253364
Perhaps im wrong and this isn't a stock android bug, but android in general including sense.

Anyone having performance and WiFi issues on the google store nexus 6!

I upgraded from 5.0.1 to 5.1 and immediately starting noticing WiFi and data issues and also performance issues I gave it a day and tryed multiple things to fix. So I'm the end I went back down to 5.0.1.. I was getting benchmarks of over 53000 on 5.0.1 and when I went to 5.1 it was less than my opo around 44000. I know benchmarks don't mean much but it is a big difference. Was wondering if anyone was having these problems?
I also noticed that there was two different 5.1 images. Is there a difference in the two?
Yes, I'm facing issues with WiFi after upgrading to 5.1. WiFi seems to freeze and Internet connection stops working. Turning WiFi off and on again solves the problem, but is very annoying.

Yeah same thing got very annoying and then even that didn't work where I would have to do what u did plus reset my router
But after going back down phones fast as hell again and no issues

Slow loading times on Android 6.0

Hey guys, I had posted a while back saying that for some reason, after flashing the new build of Marshmallow to my Nexus 6, the load times for web pages and just about everything else seems to be a bit slower than usual. I had said at the end of the post that it was fixed, but now the problem is arising again. Is anyone noticing long load times with all apps that use internet? Web pages load slower, the Facebook app takes much longer to load pictures and posts, Skype took longer to login and show everyone's profile pics etc. Never had this problem before on lollipop!
EDIT: Also, when I switch between my 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz WiFi bands, it shows a push notification that says that this WiFi signal has no internet access, and then it connects just fine after a few more seconds. This is odd. Maybe just a buggy first run of Marshmallow?

It's not loading really at all, but that's also due to my LTE coverage being awful in my area, that's always been bad haha so no change there. My other devices in the house are working just fine on my network, the Nexus 6 however seems to load slower, and it's only now that I'm on Android 6.0! Is it working fine for you?
EDIT: Just an update here, hours later, it may be my internet connection, possibly. But I'm not 100% sure on that either. If nobody else is having this issue, it may just be. Like I said though, it seems to be working fine with my other devices!
EDIT 2: http://imgur.com/gallery/TGiCU55 This is a speed test I did on my phone, I have 30Mbps internet and that shows!
I'm having same issue. Dirty flash. Kinda wondering if a clean factory reset is in order.
no issues here....came from a clean flash, which is standard protocol.
M seems fast so far, but I did change my animations Scale from 1.00 to .50! The only website to load very slow is XDA... go figure!

Yup. I did same. I might try the lollipop radio. Idk...
XDA is always sloooooow, even on a fast PC.
I've seen several other people mention slow net speeds on M as well but I've not noticed it yet. The WiFi code of M caused issues awhile back on some previous builds of HellsCore kernel too. I dont know the specifics of it though.

So there was a definite change in the radio for this build then. More than a subtle change. I wonder if it's just not perfect, I realize having a Nexus means getting the first run of all Android software, but I wonder if this is a bug in the build, or a radio that could use some work. But it does sometimes take longer to load things! I'm on very fast WiFi too!
Sent from my Nexus 6
I honestly don't know and would like to hear more specifics. I can tell you I've seen comments on this board the last couple fo days talking about massive WiFi battery drain as well.
I only know HellsCore adopted the newer M code for WiFi in his kernel and people were affected. He then had to create two builds of the kernel. One with newer WiFi code that didn't cause any issues for people and another build with the older WiFi code from L. Have you checked his G+ site?

No I haven't! I'll check that out! So that leads me to believe that it was a change in the new radio! He had to change it to code used in L radio so that may be it! Thanks for the info! I'll look into that some more!
Is it possible to flash the lollipop radio to test? I'd think you could. But I'm not 100%.

So you're saying if I flash the radio file from a 5.1.1 stock image, marshmallow will boot and work correctly? I might try that!

Hey guys! An update here, I just read through another post that was about this same issue, and someone in there said that downloading DNset from the play store fixes this issue! It changes your WiFi settings from ipv4/ipv6 to just ipv4. I did it and it's working so far, but I'm going to give it some more testing and see if it fixed! Try it out

Were you able to solve your slow page load issue?
I having same issue coming out of the box with a new N6P.
On TMO & Wifi - my old OPO had no issues.
But seems at least on LTE about town, my pages for social media & browsers are sloooooow.

Hey dude, well honestly it didn't seem to fix it. Placebo effect lol What I think it comes down to is just Marshmallow being rough around the edges at this point because I have stock rooted Marshmallow 6.0 on my Nexus 6 and have cyanogenmod 12.1 installed as a secondary ROM, When booted into cyanogenmod, pages load much faster and it's more responsive as far as I can tell! So, it must be a bug with Marshmallow! Keep in mind cyanogenmod 12.1 uses Android 5.1.1 as a base!

Any solution for the 5 minutes Tethering/wifi hotspot bug ?

Hi,
I have stock 4.0.3 and i wanted to know if there is any solution for the annoying bug that cuts wifi hotspot (tethering) after 5 minutes?
Whenever i turn tethering on, it automatically disconnects after 5 minutes, even if another device is connected.
Any tip about fixing this huge bug will be very appreciated.
Thanks
Anyone ??
I'm sure more people have noticed this bug...
Yes noticed it.
Using freedom os fixed it.
It's based on stock oos only.
I'm on freedom os and I encounter the same bug. My solution was to remove wifi password

I have password on still my WiFi isn't shutting down after 5 mins now.
Lucky me maybe.
Also noticed that yesterday...
Noticed this two days ago when internet was down at my house and I tried using my hotspot to get work done. Was quiet annoying.

That strange I just got my OP3T and havent needed to use the hotspot yet. But my nexus 5x just started doing the same thing recently, made me wonder if its a more wide spread issue across different devices.
Yes it's very strange.
I've read somewhere else that it's only happening after the oxygen 4.0.3 update.
noticed this and can't find a solution yet.
I just got my 3T two weeks ago and I haven't tested WiFi tethering, my phone is running OOS 4.0.3, rooted with Magisk and passes SafetyNet.
I know my old Galaxy S4 worked fine for tethering for hours.
I will test WiFi tethering and to my laptop this evening while streaming content from YouTube and see if my tethering lasts longer than 5 minutes. I will also test if I can properly turn the WiFi toggle on and off without the phone acting up.
Uh this is something I will test out as well. I need a working tethering Hotspot for work and I didn't expect any issues here (just got my OP3t a few days ago.
Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
I've had mine a couple of weeks now and tethered a couple of times and had no issues, however, I've resisted the temptation to update to 4.0.3, due to the touch latency issue and now maybe because of this, and only updated to 3.5.4. So maybe it's a 4.0.3 issue as mentioned?
Greetings, I just wanted to follow up and state that my tethering worked just fine. I did three 10 minutes videos on YouTube at 1080p and consumed 600MB of my data plan.
No interruptions or disconnects. My 3T was on a 4G connection the entire time. Plus I did this test when my 3T was at 14% battery and went down to 8% battery.
Once again my specs are the following, OOS 4.0.3 and Magisk Rooted.
The actual issue is hotspot will be disabled if no device is connected.
Only fix I found was using either Tasker or Automate to check that and switch it back on (I use a location trigger, since I need while at office only).

When enabling Portable hotspot, which uses Mobile Data and allows others to connected to the phone, it states inside "Connected Device Manager" that this feature will be turned off after 5 minutes if there is no device connected.
I'm not sure that this is a problem, I'm sure my Galaxy S4 did the same thing when no device is connected after a period of time.
But yes creating a Tasker profile to keep toggling this on when it turns off would work.
