Wifi sleep policy ignored on FRF85B

Hi guys, I only got my N1 a few days ago and just recently upgraded to FRF85B. I've noticed the wifi sleep policy setting seems to be ignored, even when set to never as soon as the screen blanks (locks) wifi is disabled and I can no longer ping the phone.
I'm not sure if i had this issue back on EPE54B, googling has turned up a bunch of people having similar problems but no fixes. Has anyone experienced this and have a working fix? Thanks.

Cheers flybyme, you're always around to answer my questions. I have seen that a few people claim their wifi sleep policy is working, so I was hoping I could get mine working to... Do you know if this issue is affecting every N1?

my wifi sleep policy has always worked just fine. but some people have this problem where it just does not work correctly. never seen a true reason or fix. the only thing i can think of is that it must be certain routers have this issue with nexus, and some dont. i use verizon FIOS wifi router if it matters.

I've tried 3 different routers and it doesn't work on any, I guess it could just be really picky though... Anyway I called google tech support and asked them about it and all they could do was arrange a repair/replacement.

Received my repacement from HTC and wifi sleep is working fine now, seems like it was a handset issue.

maybe i should call htc up and ask about this as well lol
i remember having this problem on the g1 at times as well, but it was not as bad as the nexus

I called N1 support about this issue and after exhausting all options they referred me to HTC and set me up for a replacement. I'll post as soon as I get it and test it out.

[Q] searching for gps

Ok please help.... take atrix back i was within my 30 days and got the thrill yaaa love it . Now i can never get a gps lock once i did a half hour later not acceptable in open sunny clear skys.... Now what ive tried to remedy this situation take phone back got new one same thing tried one on display same thing . Went to the market downloaded gps status ,gps fix, rebooted ,data wipe im not rooted fyi hard reset no dice . im losing patience at this point im in sales and gps is much needed i called lg they said send it to them 2week turnaround and they wil fix it or give me a refurb i send new you send me refurb ok lol any suggestions from here would love to try ive searched this forum and optimas3d for resolution none to be found I cant be the only one i tried 4 lg thrills all the same and yes gps is ticked on it locates maps from data but provides no gps just sits there searching and no im not in a cave this is outside not even in the car.

if it helps for a fix i can root
i will root if anybody believes this would help cmon people no ideas at all please .

Do you have data turned on? I gotta ask because a GPS lock can take a while without data or wifi turned on.
Have you tried GPS Status from the market? If you download that and then go to menu>tools>download. It will download new gprs data which will help with GPS lock time.

Even without Data turned on it should take no where near that long. I always have data turned off and it finds GPS within a minute usually. Now if your going to use google maps you Have to have data turned on which is slightly annoying but eh I downloaded Navigon for that specific reason. Navigon stores the maps on the SD card so I don't need to have active data and Only GPS Fix. Anyway if that is your issue attempt Navigon as it is an "Offline" solution that Only requires GPS Fix.

Yes if tried all of what's been mentioned above even recalibration on my Wifi data everything I can think off Att support wow hard reset is the extent of there support.

Any luck, I'm in the same boat.
My thrill is rooted and running thriller fw...

bizare wifi behavior

well, my wifi is acting wierd... reception is good and it doesn't disconnect too often, theres just this little anoying thing!
everytime roughly 3-4 days after i flash a new rom my wifi simply refuses to connect to network, and not a specific one, any network at all!
and it stays like this for a couple of hours and then all of a sudden it picks up a a networks and it works fine for a while, untill i happens again...
i've tried restarting and taking out the battery and turning the wifi off for a while, nothing seems to help, he just decides on his own when he is whilling to connect again....
if i flash a brand new rom the problem disapear for a few days but then it comes back... i'm assuming it has to do with some sort of a cache that is filling up with loads of crap and ruining the wifi activity but i tried googling for this and found nothing..
ideas anyone? (btw this happens on all roms: stock, existenz, beanstalker etc...)

its a hardware problem and not so uncommon look here

if you can take it to a customer support and if you cant sell it and again if you cant, then just get along with no wifi/bluetooth/NFC check all of them you should have problem with them too

absolutly not related, my NFC and bluetooth works just fine, i don't need to press hard anywhere...
and my wifi works just fine after a fresh rom install... so it's defenetly a software problem...

to me that sounds like the start of it because mine was the same at the first few days flashing a new rom or something would help alot but then i just found out the only thing that was helping it to get fixed was the heat from the device not the rom, but it doesnt hurt to play around with it a little so go ahead and try some other roms or repairs.
you see good reception for wifi
you try to connect
at the authorizing or connecting you will see only one point of signal and connection would kinda like disappear.
this is how it was for me but at the first days it was random it was connected good and ready, when i would left the phone in stand by after a few minutes it would DC, so i thought its kind of a sleep mode malfunction or something but after a few days almost 1-2 weeks it turned out to be hardware problem like ohers so if you see any symptom like that start looking for service centers.
but i hope it would be a software problem for you, so good luck.

Well, once he connects he stays on for days, no problem there... Just sometikes he refuses to connect... Pressing the nfc button doesnt help...

What Wi-Fi channel is your network on and have you tried 5GHz?

Didn't look into those things, but it happens with all networks except ones without passwords
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk

Have you tried deleting wpa_supplicant.conf in data/misc/wifi and reconnecting to the network? (this will delete all saved passwords and settings for known wi-fi networks) also try to disable Auto IP in advanced wi-fi settings

Well the phone is qith my sister now, I got a new z1 so far wifi worka for her, it stoppes for a few hours yestarday but came back, I might try to flash. 310 and see if it works better with it. And the Wapa_sup sounds like a good idea. Btw z1 is also jittering some with wifi, it's a global Sony problem...

temp solution?
Well, it is probably a hardware problem. I have had the same problem, everything looks fine, but you can't connect to any network.
So, searched, reinstalled, etcétera, nothing worked. Untill I read a crazy solution link://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z-ZL-ZR/xperia-zr-wifi-association-rejected/td-p/516275/page/4
and found out that if you put pressure on the back of your pone right at the NFC chip, with a finger or so, the Wifi will come alive again.
Personally I had to hit my pone's back at that exact spot with my finger (for not damaging it with excesive force) a few times, but then suddenly it worked.
So, I am convinced it's a hardware problem. Hope it works for other people too.

[Q] Very strange issue with Moto X XT1058

Hello XDA community. Im having a weird issue with my wifi antenna wich doesn´t dettect ALMOST any network (at least not mine). Sometimes when Im at the street, some open wifis are shown, or some other closed also but never mine. I have tried everything, from going from 4.4.4 to 5.1. Im at Lollipop now, no issues at all except that the Wifi seems not working. Everything started after we rebooted Modem, all other devices connected except mine. Im contacting you in order to know if there is some firmware I can flash for the wifi antenna to see if that fix the problem.
Thanks so much in advance :highfive:
EDIT: The only thread I have found related to this issue is this from Android Open Source Project, where they suggest to use a console to diagnostic the wifi driver: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1124 The thing is that i dont know i im using well the commands they sugest or maybe someone may have the right walk through to start from scratches so I can make an accurate diagnostic. Or maaaybe there is a way to flash the wifi drivers or modem??? thanks guys

I have look everywhere but seems like is no solution for it. I'm not sure if flash with custom room would be a way. It might be a hardware problem. I can't sent my to Sony because there is not warranty anymore.

Ok, my warranty expired too! I also tried software repair and still not working and i now see that Bluetooth also is not working.

Hey guys. I fixed this on my phone about a month ago. So far no one has commented if it has helped them or not, but here is my post again. Let me know if it helps.
I had this problem on my Z3c for a while (as well as no wifi or bluetooth). My device is well out of warranty. I received a RMA number last week to send it in in hopes that it would be an affordable fix. I was getting it ready to send out today and decided to try a couple more things.
As others have said, I went in to the diagnostics and test the WiFi (passed) Bluetooth (passed) and GPS (failed). I then decided to test WiFi and Bluetooth a couple more times to see if it would eventually fail. It never did. After that, I went to turn WiFi on manually and to my suprise.... it turned on! Bluetooth and GPS were also magically working.
Before this I had tried numerous factory resets, diferent android versions, different roms (without unlocking the bootloader) with no success. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but hopefully it can work for some of you!

I have exactly the same problem but only one thing is different that my Bluetooth is working. There only problem is wifi. I belive that is no hardware problem. There must be some kind of glitch in software where you accidentally doing this things jumped over. I have tried your tip. No success. Im going to do this every day to see if I have luck. My Bluetooth and wifi passing test every time GPS is failing.

Tell me if you fixed it. I'm still having no luck.

Yes, please do post back your results. I'm not sure if what I did was a fluke of what, but I was shocked when I saw my WiFi turn on. Almost every other post I have seen about this either stops getting replies or the OP sent it in for repair numerous times.

I have done exactly the same things like you described. No luck. Strange my Bluetooth is working only wifi can't be switch on. GPS is failing on test like yours. What has the GPS to do with wifi? I don't know if there is any connection.

I forgot to mention I was on the latest factory lollipop image. I'm not sure what you are on. Are both WiFi and Bluetooth passing the tests?
I'm not sure if they are connected or not.

This is no solution. There is not problem with my router. I have done it many times anyway. There is problem to find any wifi point.

Nobody?

When I was trying to root, I ended up using KingRoot and replacing it with SuperUser afterwards. None of the other methods seemed to work for me.

Ok. I have rooted my phone with giefroot. Very simple. You only follow the guide. But now I have rooted phone and gone to to root Explorer and can't find the file I should delete.

Sorry, I can't help with that. I don't see it on my phone either. I have no idea what that folder is or what it does either.

F*ck, I have same problem, wifi won't turn on. Few times after phone was turned off for long time it worked but mostly just stuck. Bluetooth works so can I be sure it's not a hardware problem?
