I've had a problem the last few months with my music stuttering when I'm on wifi. This problem does not occur on 4g connection.
The problem is on any wifi network I'm on. It's really annoying. First I thought it was a Spotify problem and reinstalled the app, but that didn't help.
Music played from the player stutters as well when on wifi.
I've tried googling this, but I can't seem to find anyone who has had this problem
Anyone else with this problem? Or know how to fix it?
Have the same problem, but haven't found a solution yet.

Give us details guyz. We are jot gods. Firmware version? Custom or official? Any background apps that sucking your wifi while you are connected? Just saying that if you are connected on wifi your phone is uploading on cloud and that means lower connection for the rest. Its the only thing that comes in my mind. And i would suggest you to remove connectivity between clouds like google photos, onedrive etc and check again

Firmware version EVA-L09C432B393. Official version. I've got nothing that's uploading when I'm on wifi. The only thing that is set to upload the photo app when I've taken new photos, but that is like once a month maybe.

I got B394 and i can tell you that i never faced such issues even with earlier versions. Although im considered lucky because i have 300mbps up-down on my home internet and unlimited up-down speeds, unlimited data and i dont suffer with my streaming.
Try to remove every sync from the settings, like mail , google viber, facebook etc etc. Its most likely the reason why you have lag spikes. Go on Wi-Fi and activate the setting that allows you to see the download-upload speed on the top of your screen. This way you will be able to check in-out data. connect on your wifi and check if there is movement. I can not see where else is the problem. If you have data cap on upload it could be the big reason why you get stuttering on wifi when you are using streaming music. After you desync your phone run your app and check if you are facing the same issue. If that fails most likely your phone is suffering from a hungry memory app.
All of my playlists are offline lists as well. And I don't have the stuttering when I'm offline.
I can't find any option to show up and down speed on the wifi. But our home wifi is really good, and we have no cap on upload speed.
And I find it weird that it affects both music apps. I have songs saved on my phone and these also stutter when on wifi, even though there shouldn't be any reason for it.
Take a look o.n the upper right side what I mean. And just to answer your question yes. It does feed something somewhere when you are connected on wifi. There is no other explanation. Awful but its happening. Did you try the rest i suggested you?

Thanks for the help.
Me and my husband found out what was wrong. There is something wrong with the SD card I had in my phone. Turns out Spotify was saving all of my playlists there and it couldn't handle being connected to wifi I guess.
And the SD card somehow ****ed up my wifi connection speed as well. Did speedtests with it in and out and it was a big difference.

Zumocast update[1.1.1] disabled me from streaming video over cell.[Fixed]
Luckily, I had it backed up [1.0.25] via Titanium, and simply restored it. This app restore was successful and I was once again allowed to stream a Boardwalk Empire.AVI over cellular data.
I wanted to warn others. Maybe someone in the Blogosphere can report this to the masses.
**EDIT:[[No need...cause this can be resolved ...Read further]]
Funny thing though, the "What's new" leaves out the fact that cellular stream has been removed. I'd also like to add that my desktop version (W7) requested an update upon restart. I may attempt to update the desk version if I can find the original download...and if its a full install as opposed to a version that Dl's from a server.
If this has happened to someone else, please reply to this thread to confirm that it was not a fluke occurrence.
Not sure what you're talking about here. I updated and stream in my car all day. Sounds like you have an isolated issue.

...cool. Thanks for letting me know. Let me try again then. I thought it was odd nobody else had commented about this yet. I'll remove the thread if I can get it work.
Were you able to stream on both 3g and 4g?
Thanks.
Just tried the 1.1.1 update again....on 3G, and it states:
"WI-FI Required for Video Playback
video cannot be played over mobile network. Please try again when connected to Wi-Fi."
My phone is rooted, stock Rom. Finally got some Alice in chains to stream after several attempts. but, no video.

I'm in a non 4g area. I noticed a big improvement in streaming from the new update. Let me give a video a whirl and I'll report back.
EDIT: Definitely just streamed some videos over 3g. That's weird you can't.

This cleared it right up. Good Job for finding the fix. Thanks for everyone's input.
For the record,the zumocast update is fine. It was just myself who had the issue, which has been resolved by disabling the battery saver mode.
...didn't even know i was in Battery saver mode. Thanks again.
I have this same issue, but turning data saver on or off doesnt fix it. I can connect to server fine over 3g, and can play music but it wont let me play video at all. It says
Wi-Fi required for Video Playback
Video cannot be played over mobile network. Please try again when connected to Wi-Fi.
Hi guys,
I'm on my third HTC One, and all three of my One's experienced this issue. Basically when at home on my HomeHub 3, if I download something large (take Angry Birds for example) the Wi-Fi will drop out. It WILL reconnect immidiatley, but it keeps stopping downloads and sometimes the downloads don't continue and so I have to monitor everyhing that is downloading. It seems fine when Web Browsing etc, but when downloading thats when issues kick in. I'm using a laptop, iPad and Xbox and none of those are having these issues, it's just the One. I was in the Trafford Centre earlier doing lots of downloading though and there wasn't a single issue.
Just wondering if it's a problem with the Hub or a driver issue?
Mike.

I also have this issue. One thing you could try is change the frequency to 2.4ghz or 5ghz instead of auto. Hoping it's just a driver bug. I'm using wpa 2 security on my wireless at home. I haven't checked to see if WiFi drops out at my office which is wep I believe.

I have heard of people having issues with HH3 on Android before. I'm trying to find the post but no luck. I think it had something to do with the HH3 default setting for channel selection. With it set to Auto, Android phones were having problems. I would first try logging into your router and changing the channel selection from Auto to a free channel. Use the Android App WiFi Analyser to find a clear channel. Also avoid using channel 13.
Having trawled through the interweb to try and track the issue down, the route cause seems to be the firmware in the HH3 is a steaming heap. You are probably best sacking it off for your own router. I'm having all sorts of problems with my Virgin "Superhub" as they keep pushing updates to it without warning, which resets all my security and settings to default! The only reason I've not gone back to my custom DD-WRT Linksys WRT160NL is that it is buried in my attic somewhere and I just know in will be in the bottom of the last box right at the back....
So I realized ygm when I'm watching my youtube vídeos on my One it always stops and starts loading. I wanted to know if it is the app or the phone I have all bars and I still next to the router so what's the problem. Someone on another forum said that it was from having flashplayer, I don't know

i have the same issue. connected to wifi, good signal, etc. its hit or miss some videos absolutely will not start the spinner just goes on forever. and if it does play it almost always gets stopped.
ATT Device (google edition conversion 4.3)
YouTube app version 5.0.21
I had thus issue constantly when I was on WiFi using AT&T u-verse. If I disconnected and used 4g it was fine. Changed DNS and all that to no avail. Bandwidth was fine. Went with another ISP and the issue rarely happens. Plenty of factors involved sometimes though.

I'm experiencing problems with Gmail and whatsapp: whenever I'm on my home wifi the push does not work. But more problematic, sometimes it does work. Next to that when I go into whatsapp after a day of no messages they all arrive at once.
So I'm able to receive messages and Internet works, but the push services doesn't work most of the time! I'm not on stamina mode or any other battery app (BTW battery of my z1 is worse than my sp).
Does anyone have an idea how to find out if there's a culprit or what settings I've messed up?

So nobody has a clue I gather?
To my look like the Auto-Sync is OFF so turn it ON. If is already ON probably Gmail and Whazzuppe is not in the list so you have to addict it manually + Add Account.

Thanks for thinking with me, though that is not the case! Sync is on and it works perfectly on other wifi networks.
I can report a more peculiar fact: pinging google.com with Fing results in 100% packet loss, though pinging for example tweakers.net gives me an average of 40msec. Strangely I can brows to www.google.com in Chrome... It seems as though there's something very wrong with my Z1 because pinging Google.com with my Xperia SP does work!
Any news on this?
I'm experiencing the exact same problem. It has been around for at least a couple of months on my Nexus 4.
Most of the times I don't receive any push notifications. I need to open the app manually, wait a couple of seconds, and then all the new messages come in.
Here is what I tried so far:
- Notification settings for each app
- Reinstalled complete OS
- Background data is allowed
- Wifi policy is "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" -> Always
- I don't have any battery savings or task killer apps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2599417
I also tried this, and now I only have the OS and Whatsapp installed. But the problem persists.
I have the same problems since KitKat.
Sometimes I have to open the app to become the messages.
I had this problem with 681, then I done a full wipe and installed the 757 rom.
But i also have this problem....
So as it turns out, the problem only exists in my wifi at home.
When I'm at the university everything works fine.
I also noticed that facebook and instagram are very slow on my phone at home.
And only the apps, not the websites.
(this also has been around for a couple of months)
Having the same issue with my HTC M8. Guess I just have to find out what settings are causing this on my router.
Edit: Fixed it. My VPN's DNS servers were blocking push. Changing them back to googles DNS brought push back.
Actually, I was also facing the problem. I tried to get it solved by uninstalling all the recently downloaded apps, but it didn't work for me. And I couldn't uninstall all the apps.
Then I got the idea that it may be because of some setting on my router. I don't know much about router settings. So, I finally installed the VPN App Opera Max and it worked. It was a big relief for me.

Max does not change DNS settings so in theory it shouldn't fix this issue. It's possible that your issue was unrelated to this one.
Hi there,
in November last year I bought a brand new Google Pixel 5 and I gotta say that I'm quite happy with it, however there's been something quite annoying: sometimes it freezes and reboots itself when I'm using mobile data. I tried to figure out what was causing the issue and why it only happens when I'm using mobile data but I can't really find an answer. If I use WiFi, everything is fine, I can listen to the radio, watch videos on YouTube, have Teams calls, browse the web with Chrome etc, however if I try to do the very same things with mobile data in 4G (there's no 5G coverage in my area) it freezes and then reboots. It doesn't always happen, it seems to be happening randomly and I have no idea why. After rebooting, the app that crashed still has something in memory and if I try to open it without killing it first, it will immediately freeze the phone again and make it reboot again. It happened while I was watching videos on Facebook, it happened while I was watching videos on YouTube, it happened while I was browsing with Chrome, it happened during a Discord call, it happened during a telegram call, it happened while I was checking the NHS COVID-19 app... It can occur after few hours or several times an hour and I don't know what's causing it. Android is a Linux like OS, is there a way to check the journal and see what's happening? And on top of that, is there a way to let Google know and make Android automatically report crashes? The phone is still new, it's not rooted and I've only unlocked the developers options to force the refresh rate to 90Hz but that's it. I reached out to Google and they offered to replace the phone as soon as I send it (RMA) however I would like to find out first whether it's really an hardware problem or if it's Android 11 being unstable. I do have all the OS updates and all the apps are updated. What do you think? Oh last but not least, the SIM ain't an eSIM, it's a physical SIM placed inside the phone.
thank you in advance,
Frank

Have you tried resetting your network in settings? Were you using this same SIM in your old phone with no issues, or was it new? Have you tried to replicate the issue in safe mode to rule out an errant app? If resetting network doesn't work, just back up your data and factory reset the phone. Google may have suggested this already. It's pretty much their automatic response before RMA. Cheers.
Of course I tried to reset my phone and start from scratch but it didn't help. As to the SIM, it has been working fine on my old phone for years so it's not the one causing the issue. Besides, if I disable mobile data but I still use the phone to call other people using the carrier network, it doesn't have any issues at all. As to safe mode, it happened with Chrome and YouTube, standard Google apps, so I can rule out third party apps altogether. It's really weird.
I made a few more tests and it seems to be related to GPU Hardware acceleration. I said that it happened on Facebook, YouTube and Chrome and I thought about the common factor: I was watching videos. It happened while I was on Facebook watching videos, it happened while I was on YouTube watching videos and it happened while I was on Chrome visiting a website which had an ad in which there was a video playing.
Oh and it also happened when I opened the camera 'cause... guess what? Video!
What puzzles me is that it only happens in 4G but not in WiFi and I can't think of any possible reason why it's only occurring with mobile data...
Ok after trying to understand what happened I was finally able to solve the issue and it wasn't an hardware fault nor it was related to video. It was me using IPSec Xauth PSK with Always on VPN turned on. It turns out that using a third party application to connect via Open VPN fixed the issue. It's now more than a week and I've never had a single reboot or freeze or crash. I have no idea why, but all I can say is "stay away from IPSec Xauth PSK" guys, there's something deeply broken there. Anyway, I'm glad everything turned out to be ok.
Cheers,
Frank
