Hi guys,
Recently got my nook HD+ booting again and is now running CM 10.2.1.
I remember before I had stopped using it, it had issues connecting to wifi or when it was connected, very flaky or slow..
Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is there an easy fix?
10.2.1 has always had those issues go back to 10.1 or up to 11

Wondering if I'm the only fella with this problem:
I recently flashed CM 10 (nightly build 2013-07-21) using TWRP (I'd originally used CWM, but it corrupted my internal SD card so I wiped everything and switched and that solved the problem). I'm s-on, so I manually flashed the kernal, went into TWRP, flashed the ROM, everything's hunky-dory. Used gapps-jb-20130301 (which is the most recent version), upgraded Talk to Hangout, everything's working fine.
Except I can't seem to get a dang video Hangout to work. Every time I try I get an error saying the network connection has timed out--and I'm on an AT&T Vivid, so no using the mobile network for me to see if it's just a wifi problem. I get kind of lousy signal here at my house, so I tried it at the office and at a friend's place, and got the same result.
So two questions:
1. Am I the only unfortunate sod having this problem?
2. Is there any way to fix it?
I really, really like CM 10 (it is seriously a revelation--this was my first foray into flashing my phone, and it's gone incredibly well--dang near a religious experience after the long dark of Sense), and it's currently stable and functional enough that I'd like to keep it if possible. Is this just Hangouts being weird, the Vivid being weird (from what I can tell that's a pretty common occurrence), or what?
Any help is appreciated.
If you are on CM 10 and not 10.1 and you are using those gapps, those gapps are for 4.2.2 and not 4.1.2.. and I'm pretty sure it is 20121011 or something like that if you need 4.1.2

Sorry, I meant to say I'm using CM 10.1. I've installed the wrong gapps before and that just made everything crash all the time, forever (the keyboard in particular). Everything seems to work except for video calls on Hangouts.

I have the exact same problem now. Everything works perfect except every time when I tried to start the video/voice call on Hangout it timeout/crash. Really hope this to be fixed.
So after a long wait and having updated my boss's SGS4 to the sweet chocolaty kitkat, I came across an official CM 11 nightly for our beloved cappy, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557481) I tried it and for a nightly it running exceptionally except for one thing that sent me back to SlimBean, I can not get whatsapp to connect by any means. Everything else is working beautifully but this D: it even downloaded from the playstore just fine (as opposed to all the errors said to be caused by ART) I tried all the lib fixes I found that said it got whatsapp working again but non of them did the job. Any one that has got it to work?
Try to check your APN settings. It worked for me.

The APN actually was cleared but that wasn't the problem as I was trying to connect with wifi, however the problem was fix on the nightly right after that n.n been working great with ART the only problem I seem to be having now is the occasional deep sleep which the phone wont wake up from without a reboot. Not really sure what's causing it.:silly:
You can always try a different governor/scheduler setup to fix the wake problem.

I've got an incredibly irritating WiFi issue that seems to be different from other complaints I've seen in this subforum. It's not that WiFi doesn't work, or that it disconnects randomly from my home router. It always turns on, and once I establish a connection it maintains it ad infinitum.
However, some amount of time after the WiFi is turned on and connected to a network, it becomes incapable of scanning for or connecting to other networks without reboot. I plan on using my tablet a lot during travel, so this is a major problem for me. Even if I've saved a network I regularly use, when this bug occurs, I cannot switch from my current network to that saved/known network. Specific example: say I'm connected to my home router, then I go get in the car and turn on my phone's hotspot. The HD+ will refuse to recognize the phone hotspot is even available, giving only the options to "Forget" or "Cancel" when I click it on the network list. All the while, WiFi is still on and working properly with the home connection.
Is this a known issue with the HD+, or is it possible/likely that I have a faulty sample? Has anyone found a workaround?
Your title says CM10 and CM11. Do you mean CM10 or CM10.2? I run CM10.1.3 stable and do not experience that issue.

Sorry, I meant to specify that but wasn't able to edit the OP after submitting. I've tried various nightlies of both CM10.2 and CM11. Have not tried CM10.1 since I just received the tablet last month.
Think Wifi scanning is a known problem with CM 10.2 on HD+. Just turn your wifi off then on to work around the problem.

For me, when the issue occurs, turning WiFi off and on does not help. The only solution is to reboot.
However, I scoured the Internet some more yesterday and found someone on another device who claimed disabling Google's auto-scanning for networks even while WiFi is turned off (apparently introduced in 4.3) solves this problem. I disabled that feature and so far have yet to have a problem scanning. I'll update the thread after a few more days with whether this solved the issue permanently.

I had the issue on CM 10.2, but not at all on CM11. CM 11 has worked fine for me.

I'm running unofficial cm10.2 and experiencing the same problem. I did not have the problem with cm11, but cm11's network performance was sporadic and generally sub-par.
My thanks to verygreen for his work on both cm10.2 and cm11.
I like the 1.5 MHz over clocking.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I doubt I'd have found that on my own. I tried the suggest fix, and thought it had worked, but just before checking the HD/HD+ forums this evening I took a look at wifi-manager, and then the Wi-Fi portion of settings and there were no other networks visible. It did seem as though it took longer for the problem to show up this time.
Thanks again.

Anyone else having wifi issues since installing 10.2.1 on Nook?
My wifi is really finicky, can't hold a proper connection & have to restart often to even find proper signals ..its getting really annoying & just wondering if anyone else know whats going on & how to fix it
Thanks!
I'm making this thread since I can't post in the development forum. I've been having some slow WiFi troubles since installing Hashcode's CM12 build. I did a completely clean install of the latest build.
I've read of many connectivity problems, etc -- my WiFi connects and stays connected with no problems, however, my speeds are consistently very slow. For example, where I'm sitting right now my phone gets ~23 mbps on a speed test, but the Nook only gets about ~2-3 mbps. This has been consistent since installing about a week ago. My WiFi has not been this slow on my Nook in the past on other ROM builds. I tried deleting the folder noted previously in the thread and rebooting to no avail. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I would also like to say that most everything else has been running very well and I am very thankful to Hashcode for this build! Great work.
