(solved) note wifi disconnecting :(

Hi all. i have a problem with my note. on some instances if i try downloading large files(for games or navigon maps, or just browsing on some sites, etc) after 10 15 seconds the wifi adapter shuts down/resets and the connection is lost. the adapter restarts and connects to the wifi in 2 3 seconds but is very frustrating to try downloading something many times before succeeding. anyone else has this problem? i searched the forum but didnt find anyone else with this problem. any ideas as to what is causing this problem?

Re: note wifi disconnecting
Hmm. Try changing the router wifi settings to transmit only b/g and retest.

Had the same issue, please tell us what version and kernel rom you are using?
->I had only when using CM, on stock GB and the XXLSC roms, I did not encounter this problem (also with cm 10.1 I seem to have a stable connection again)
**I do want to note, that it can't be possible to have a worse connection when on CM vs TW, but I have experienced it this way. So I can onlyh draw my conclusions from that...(I don't have any developer knowledge whatsoever)

Re: note wifi disconnecting
I would start by un plugging the router and plug it back in.

baseband version: N7000 xxlpt. kernel version N7000 xxlq3. android 4.0.3. This issue was present from day one. but never tried downloading large files from another router and my htc legend never had this issue with the router. will try to see if the router is the problem today and get back to you. tx to all in advance

Try this:
Dial *#0011#*
Press the menu button on service mode screen
Select wifi
Turn "wifi power save mode" off
It seems like this is only working on samsung roms. I'm on CM10.1 and I have to dial *#*#0011#*#* to access the service mode.
Also there is no wifi entry in the menu.

Re: note wifi disconnecting
just downloaded a 700 +mb file with no problem. i set the router to b and g only. seems it was the frickin router. tx a lot to all 4 ur support.

CHanging to b/g works
Hi,
I have router DIR 855 and had the same issue with my note. Wifi kept disconnecting whereas all the other devices at home stay connected. So it was clear that Note was the one that had the issue. Changing the 2,4ghz to b/g setting helped but I would like a stable connection on my 5 ghz band and that one keeps disconnecting. Any idea how to fix that? I am using NAS and the speed is much better when using 5ghz instead of the old crappy 2,4ghz.

For me too 5GHz is not stable on note... Why not use the router on Auto and then use the settings on NAS to use only 5GHz

Please explain

Hi,
Can you please elaborate on how to do that?
My router has two different bands and it cannot switch between the two. What do you mean by NAS setting?

Depends if your router can run simultaneous dual band.

[Q] Anyone else having WiFi issues with their HTC One?

Hey guys,
So I just got my brand-spanking new HTC One today. I upgraded from the Evo LTE, and I already love it.
But there's one thing that has been really frustrating to me for the few hours I've owned this phone... It has major WiFi issues.
My One can see the WiFi network, can connect to it, but wont give an internet connection! It's so frustrating!
My Evo LTE, being connected to the same WiFi network, connects to the internet with no problem at all.
A temporary fix is to turn off the WiFi radio, then turn it back on. As a result, I would connect to the internet for a minute or so, then it would disconnect from the internet (it's still connected to my WiFi network, and it recognizes it, and it gives no messages about the connection suggesting that something is wrong with my router/connection).
I changed the frequency bands, but they all have the same issue. I have enabled "Best Wi-Fi performance" and "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep."
I've also reseted my router numerous times... No luck.
Is anyone else having this issue, or did I just get a lemon? Can anyone think of a possible solution?
Thanks!

no issues here with my one and my netgear r6300 ac router.

Wi-Fi has been fantastic for me on my one. My evo LTE if you remember had the issue of wi-fi just shutting off after the phone was asleep. That was fixed in an update but even after that was fixed my evoLTE would show it's connected but data would not work. So I would have to toggle it on & off. I also had an issue with my sense widget not working and getting stuck. I was really starting to dislike the evoLTE because of it since your notifications quit working if your wi-fi was not connected correctly. I put up with crappy wi-fi for almost a year, mainly because I knew if I took it into Sprint they would say everything works perfect I just didn't wanna deal with. I know it's extremely frustrating to not have your wi-fi work correctly. My advice see if you can get a hold of another HTC one to test side by side. If it's a hardware issue you should get it swapped. You could also try hard resetting. I use a a WRT54GL with tomato at home and a Asus N66U at work, both have performed awesome with my one.

I have _exactly_ the same issue with my One. I have no idea if it's a software or a hardware problem. Tried a hard reset just yet, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
Really frustrating indeed, since the One is not very good available in the Netherlands yet, so if I return it, I might have to wait a few weeks to get a new one. I've tried it with at least 6 completely different WiFi networks, but the problem occurs with every one of them.

Only issue I have had with the WiFi thus far is it doesn't seem to have the pickup up range compared to my other phones and tablets.

WiFi on mine is insanely crazy! Picks up signal way better than any other device I've ever owned. Might be the kernel I'm running. Try it out! Look in the original dev thread.

I've noticed this as well. Areas in my office where I could get a decent wifi signal with my 3D I am dropping wifi completely with the One.

Router brand/model? Firmware version? WEP/WPA/Open? 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz or dual band? Channel (more relevant on 2.4 than 5)?
Does your phone get a valid IP? Check on the phone itself then the router under DHCP (assuming normal configuration, IP should begin 192.168.*.*)
Can you ping any internal node (ie your router) or external node (ie google.com or the IP to google)?
If your router has WEP/WPA enabled, switch it to Open solely for testing the connection.

Had the exact same problem. Only thing that fixed it was switching my router encryption from WPA to WEP. Works like a charm now. Best of luck.

Same problem and my solution
I had the same problem. Finally I tried to reset the phone without putting all my google-account info back. Then the wifi works fine. After that a Added my google-account and can enjoy my new HTC one. The phone is really good!
Note that in this way I didn't get all my setting back from my google account (like access points), but at it is working!

Connecting to chromecast

Anyone has any issues connecting to the chromecast? My Note 3, not rooted or modified in any way, cannot connect stably to the chromecast dongle. They are on the same wifi, with at least 3 signal bars on both devices. However every time I try to play from YouTube or Netflix I get this constant connect - disconnect until the app crashes. On the TV I see the dongle start connecting to the stream then dropping it when Note disconnects then restarting the stream from beginning when Note reconnects.
Anyone has any ideas? Apps work fine otherwise and dongle works fine with my laptop and the old Note 2.
Thanks

Seems that I have fixed it myself. At least it is working for now.
I was reading the thread on Note 3 WiFi issues in this forum and someone there offered improvement for that problem. I have not noticed any WiFi issues on my phone but decided to do so anyway. Well, apparently that fixed my chromecast connection.

I had an issue but I had to turn off the option in wifi settings for switching to 4g if the wifi connection is poor.

I had that one off already. Wasn't working. Only turning off power management fixed it. However, it substantially worse on the battery life. I've lost 3-5 hours of the battery.

[Q] random wifi disconnects

i keep getting random wifi disconnects all the time. it is getting a little old. i was wondering if anyone can help me fix this problem? i have tried to install the rom several times with the same results each time. i have also changed router channels and setting with no change.
anyone have any ideas?
i am on
Bad Boyz Sprint ONE ROM 4.3 v1.2 Sense 5.0 ROM
hboot 1.44
radio 1.00.20.1108

Been having same issues since 4.3 update and I'm stock.
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

Same here, but it only happens with some networks, like at work. At home, no problems. Running Team Nocturnal 4.4.2, latest radio, and tried other radios as well.
At work, I've got to cycle airplane mode on/off to get things running again, but then WiFi drops out again.
Tried turning off WiFi optimization, tried forcing 2.4ghz only vs auto, and also tried manually adding network by typing in SSID (on a Google forum, someone mentioned this fixed things for them).
No idea what's causing this. Like I said, home network works perfectly fine on 2.4ghz and auto mode.

Try updating firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48649096

Tried that-- did it before I wiped everything to install 4.4.2.

I had this issue too a while back. What seemed to fix it for me was unchecking Wi-Fi optimization in the Wi-Fi advanced settings. Try this, hope it helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. Already tried it.
Don't know why this is happening, and only on some networks.
Works 100% at home. Good enough! But if anyone finds a fix, I'm all ears.

Always disconnecting from any Wi-Fi source in on. At home either on the at&t uverse gateway or Linksys bridge in room. Same scenario. Even at Starbucks or in hotels i get the same issue. Just randomly drops off switches to 3g/4g then reconnects to Wi-Fi. Just like it did right now as I'm trying to post this

Same here. Completely stock. Happens on multiple wi-fi networks. I've tried all of the fixes mentioned in this thread. Extremely annoying. An airplane mode toggle seems to fix things for awhile, but it always comes back.
Any word on the likelihood of this being fixed with the upcoming 4.4 update?

I had this problem too doesnt happen on CM 11 but if i RUU back to stock wifi disconnects all the time. I disabled the NFC and that seem to work for me.
to disable NFC go to settings and under wireless networks there is a more menu. uncheck the last box which is NFC. the icon will also disappear at the top.

still the same. i tried all of those options. still does the random disconnect to mobile data then back to wifi.

This may sound crazy, but try switching network to cdma only, before turning on wifi. Noticed the random disconnects when there was no 4G LTE or it was spotty. Hope this helps Turning off mobile data completely while on wifi should also work

Any chance we're all having issues with the same comcast wireless router/modem?

I'm having issues with 2wire and Linksys. Nothing has seemed to help issue. Besides just staying connected to sprint network.

Nexus 6 WiFi issues

Well I've recently started getting issues with the WiFi connection.
I'm sitting a few feet away from my router and should be getting full signals. But what I really get is full signals for a second, then 1 signal, then 2, 1 again, and then the WiFi disconnects and then reconnects.
I'm able to browse the internet fine ( with small breaks when it disconnects and reconnects ) but my phone has started to heat up. I've noticed it only heats up this much when using WiFi.
Any fixes or causes for this problem ?

Your Wi-Fi router is compromised. Do a Google search for chameleon. That's all I can tell you do to NDA.

Ya I agree router issue I had similar problem were I would drop wifi signal at home and had to restart phone to reconnect... Exchanged router and all is well.... AT&T n6 stock

I agree with others. Definitely a router issue I'd say. No problems for me.

When the phone had root access, you could change the WiFi interval.
I changed it with the build.prop editor. I changed the value of wifi_supplicant_scan_interval from 10 tot 200.
