Everything was working fine on my phone when one week back I was watching Youtube on my phone and it started buffering and I saw that Wifi bars from status bar were on low though I was sitting right next to the router. I tried all basic troubleshooting like reboot phone and router, check if same problem is there on other devices and even changed ROM. All other devices connected to my Wifi work fine. I even tried connecting to my friend's network at his place and even there I was having same problem. When I connect to Wifi network on my XT1068 it shows full range for 5 seconds then it drops to 1 or 2 bars. Wifi does work but it works very slowly. Please help! I am open to all suggestions.
PS - Previous ROM - Resurrection Remix
Current ROM - crDroid
Both on latest builds.
After installing the android nougat resurrection remix I started to have wi-fi instability problems. Even installing the previous ROM, android pie resurrection remix, the problem continued. What could I do to resolve this?

Last week, I decided to finally unlock, root, and flash a custom ROM onto my Sprint HTC One. I started with the LiquidSmooth 3.0 Beta, which I really like, but encountered some issues with the WiFi connection.
Essentially, my WiFi connection will, at various times, stop working. When this happens, my phone still shows as being connected to the WiFi AP. Sometimes, I can get my data working again by turning WiFi off and then back on. Other times, after turning my WiFi off, it will refuse to connect to anything when I turn WiFi back on. At this point, I have to reboot my phone to get WiFi working again. Once, the WiFi started working again about 3-4 after I had noticed it wasn't working.
The WiFi generally seems to work best at home, where I have just 1 AP the phone connects to, though it will still sometimes freeze. It is much worse at work, where there are multiple APs as you move throughout the building. When the phone was using stock, the WiFi would usually take a minute or so to regain data when moving between different areas of the building, but now it usually just never regains connection. The notification will show that it is connected, but with 0 signal strength.
Looking around, I've seen that some other people have had similar situations. I tried the solution of renaming my device in the WiFi Direct settings. This seemed to make the WiFi work a little better at home, but no different at work. Some other people said they flashed a newer radio, but I seem to have the latest radio on my phone. And this issue is not related purely to LiquidSmooth. I tried out the SlimKat ROM and encountered the same WiFi problems.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have been having this issue for a bit now, it hasnt been like this always but only recently.
I also noticed that there was another user who was complaining of the same issue on a KK rom as well.
I have had this issue on Dirty Unicorns and Spirit Rom
I am going to give SlimSaber a try and see if it persists on that as well.
I know it could be network issue but I have never had this problem until recently and I did not change residence etc.
It shows connected in the status bar but there is no is absolutely no data transfer till i turn it on and off. And sometimes even that doesn't work and I have to turn of airplane mode. And this happens every 10 mins so I am sure it is no some sort of connection time-out issue
APN settings seem to be fine and such and I am out of ideas.
Could it be a ROM issue? Any suggestions as to what could help?
I am sorry for the horrible typos!
Tried slimsaber but issue persists
Updated the modem to the one for my country and it might help? idk
A while ago, the wifi on my phone started to behave strangely. Sometimes, it wouldn't connect to my modem and other times connected flawlessly. Now it stopped connecting. 3 weeks have passed and it didn't connect to any routers. I changed my router, tried connecting to public, open wifi and friends wifi but nothing worked. I even bought a wifi antenna and replaced the one inside my phone & tried setting up a static IP but it still doesn't work. I was on N4 elite when the problems started, as usual I already tried the wipe cache etc.. flash stock 4.4.4 but still nothing. I'm on stock 4.4.4 now.
when I switch on wifi it searches and finds all nearby connections. but when I try connecting to one of them the signal strength meter decreases to zero and then it says saved.
Any solution? thanks in advance

You can try flashing a custom rom. Maybe it fixes your device. It can reveal if the problem is with your antenna or with your rom

Tried lots of different roms, still doesn't work
Hello, everyone!
I've been reading a lot about Z1's Wi-Fi issues since I'm experimenting them a lot.
Connection drops constantly and I have to wait some time before it connects again. I have tried a few stuff, like apps who claim they fix your Wi-Fi (root), changing my security settings and other adjustments on my router, using a static IP for my phone... But nothing works!
Do you guys know any solution to this? I updated to the latest official firmware and nothing happened, and then I tried with a different ROM (MX's 8.5.0 Edition) but the performance of the Wi-Fi is still the same.
I'm using a Samsung phone in the same room as my Z1, and the Samsung phone gets perfect Wi-Fi signal and doesn't drop the connection.
Help me, please.
Many thanks!
Hi
I received my 3T yesterday. I am having issues with WIFI
WiFi network drops frequently and the mobile data is used for some time and then WIFI is connected again. See attached .. This happens even when moving between rooms of my house
I think this happens when the mobile wifi changes from 5GHZ to 2.4GHZ when I move away from router
I have updated to OxygenOS 3.5.4 as soon as I received the mobile
The signal strength of the 3T is also very low
I have a 2 year old moto X 2014 and the moto beats the 3T at every place in my house
The signal strength and the wifi speed both are better in moto X
I have checked at various places
I have wiped the cache. Tried changing 2.5GHz to 5GHz
Changed Channels.. Tried all the things that I could find on the internet
But still problems
So is this a hardware problem and should I ask for a replacement? Or is this some Software bug which can be resolved
My router is ASUS RTN66U and a lot of other devices work seamlessly on that router and hence pls dont suggest to change the router
Awaiting replies
Regards

I think this is a bug related to 3.5.4. On 3.5.3 my WiFi worked a lot better, but LTE Advanced is faster on 3.5.4. You can try a custom rom or downgrading, there's also a leaked OxygenOS 4 rom out.
Do you have wifi issues now when u have 3.5.4
I don't want to install new Roms. As I may have to return it in case this is a faulty piece
I'm having the exact same problem. I stream a lot. Very annoying when music video or gaming gets disconnect so often. My Galaxy Note 4, & s6 works fine.

yes, it started on 3.5.4.
here is a screencap of the issue
You can see in the screen cap that the mobile is connected to ASUS5 (5GHZ)
Then as I move away from the router the signal weakens and then the wifi disconnects .. and then it connects to ASUS (2.4GHZ)
Earlier it was connecting to ASUS but with a exclamation mark (without internet).. I waited for 15 minutes but it did not connect
Then I would connect if I switch off and on the wifi toggle
After that I did a factory reset and now you can see the screencap
It connects after a minor delay.. So is this alright
My other mobile - Moto X 2014 simply switches instantly from 5GHz to 2.4GHz and vice versa.. not even half of second is taken on moto x
Give the device a static IP use 2.4 network as it's more of a long range band. I tend to use the 5 band for stationary stuff. My WiFi works fine but all my home devices have a static IP.
This are the things that I did
1) Factory reset
2)Use Legacy DHCP client (under Developer options)
3)Disable Smart Wifi switcher (Advanced Wifi setting)
4)Static IP
This seems to solve the disconnection issue .. I still feel the wifi signal is weak compared to my other devices
Hope this helps someone facing the problem
regards
I had the same Problem on OOS 3.5.3/3.5.4/4.0 at the OnePlus 3T.
I tried every Solution on the internet and nothing worked for me.
But after i looked into my Router-Setup i saw the DHCP Section where i selected 'Renew DHCP every Day'
>>> Screenshot what i mean - imgur.com/KakQX3i.png <<<
After that it works perfect. No connection-issues anymore.
mine is already one day..
I thought it was resolved... but again I noticed slow wifi speeds
thinking of replacement
haven't had the phone long enough to experience disconnects but wifi is definitely slow...
I have a 200mbps connection, getting 160mbps on desktop with LAN cable, 110mbps on my OPO, only 50mbps on my OP3T....
all tested through speedtest with the same server location.
OP3T is chinese version flashed with oxygenos 4.0.1
edit: later tested again with OP3T getting up to 90mbps but still 20 less than the OPO
I have same issus like lajay. The Galaxy S7 from my wife works perfekt in the same Network!
