[Q] Wifi xoom on 3.2 wifi issue? [SOLUTION] - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is anybody else noticing issues where apps that use internet crash constantly? E.G. When installing Asphalt 6 it crashes about 30 times which i have to keep resuming saying there was downloading errors. Not to mention i have to wait about 3 minutes after hitting download for apps in the market to actually download? Is anybody else experiencing these issues? Please make yourself known if you are and if somebody has generated a fix for this PLEASE tell me.
[[[[[[SOLUTION]]]]]]]]
Okay so i found out theres a bug with the 3.2 update. At least in my case. Maybe others who just arent aware yet. I hosted tests. I installed asphalt 6 on my 3.2 rooted unlocked setup. the download failed about 30 times intermittently. slowly downloaded entire thing failing and restarting throughout.
Then i removed my root and relocked my device and factory reset it(still on 3.2 just deleted all my data). Posted same test with same results. So then i flashed my device to 3.0 and upgraded to 3.1 DID NOT UPDATE TO 3.2. Did the same test downloading asphalt. It downloaded all 500+mb of data in one run without failing. Aswell as my Gtalk has been sitting for an hour and hasnt logged me off once.
So my conclusion is that 3.2 brings unstable wifi connections and therefor i will stay at 3.1 until a new update is released!!! THANKS!!!!!
Again this may not bother others but if im doing video on talk i hate having to recall every 5 minutes and i hate having to constantly try to redownload files when they fail.

ALSO google talk logs me out every few minutes.

..anybody?

No issues like that to report here. I'm running tiamat rom 2.0 now, but I was running 3.2 stock before and it was fine.

hmm
I think i figured the market part out... I hit download app it says waiting for install. I click on my apps in the top corner then hit back twice then go to the app again and instead of download it says install. REALLY WEIRD market glitch...
Now for Gtalk. Is anybody else having issues where it logs you out ever 5 to 10 minutes saying issues connecting to server?

It would be nice to know im not the only one having issues downloading large files on 3.2 Just so i can know for sure i dont have defective hardware.

I don't think this is related but whenever I have had trouble downloading, I check to see if I have any app updates waiting. They seem to take priority over new downloads.

I notice that too but unfortuneatly this is just when i was downloading 1 large file. I dont know why but for some god awful reason my wifi connection reset like ever 5-10 minutes causing issues for every app that needs internet access. But now on 3.1 its working flawlessly. Along with the benefit of having swype keyboard

I am starting to narrow this bug down, and should be fixesd in the next tiamat rom.

I am using Tiamat 2.01 and am experiencing extreme slowness on anything over wifi. This is on a U.S. wifi only. As I'm typing this there is a several second lag from when I hit the key to the time it displays. What I don't remember is whether it started when I went from Tiamat 1.1 to 2.0 or from 2.0 to 2.01.

Man i really dont think its your fault for this bug. Whenever i upgraded to 3.2 stock alone this issue arises. I guarantee you its the fault of the stock rom. thats when i experience the issue. ive tried updating to just stock 3.2 3 times now from 3.1. 3.1 is always fine. No download issues. It downloads whole files in bulk without failing. But it never fails. Every time i upgrade to 3.2 stock i get failures throughout the large file downloads.

Any news? out of curiosity.

I am sure this was discussed somewhere else, but if you set up the WiFi profile with a static IP this issue goes away. It is definitely a bug in stock 3.2 where DHCP continuously reassigns and IP address every few minutes causing all downloads and GTalk sessions to be disconnected. Now I know static IP addresses are not always possible, but strangly what I found on my stock 3.2 Xoom is that as soon as I had ONE profile setup to use static IP, the other profiles that were setup to use DHCP no longer had this problem. Really strange.

My problem is that everything over wifi was slow with several second lags between the time you hit a key and the time it displayed that character. Even just scrolling on a webpage was excruciatingly slow. Local apps ran fine. I thought I would give your idea a try, so I went into my AT&T U-verse modem and left DHCP enabled for my Xoom's IP address, but I dedicated that address to my Xoom. I then rebooted the Xoom and without making it a static IP address my network speed was very fast.
Hopefully that helps anyone who is having the same issue, but doesn't want to set a static IP address.

anyone make any progress on this yet? I just flashed the 3.2 Tiamat 2.01 ROM, coming from Tiamat 1.1 and am unable to complete the download of themes in thumb keyboard and other apps that allow for in-app downloads. I am assuming that the problem is related to this. Does that sound correct?

[Q] Help with G Tablet!

I have three tablets. Not that I owe.. one is mine, another is my sister's, and last one is my cousin's. All tablets are on VEGA-n beta 5.1. My sister's tablet is doing some unexpected things. For starters whenever it is put to sleep it shuts down instead(not right away but after a min or two it shuts down). Second, both mine and hers are on the same network, but when hers gets 10 or more feet away from the wifi source it drops connection while mine still gets excellent connection. Third while on the same network, on hers only certain apps can access the internet while others cannot. Market was working earlier(downloaded Ti backup after reflash) but her Internet Explorer was not working. Now internet explorer works but market does not, even other internet explorers other than the stock one are unable to connect online. Lastly her accelerometer stopped working/was stuck. I reflashed and wiped all data, but nothing. Its still broken.
Should I return it? I have tried all the solutions that fixed some of these problems for me but they don't seem to work on hers. Any help please?!
Wow, its great to see that you all kept the G Tablet in the family.
1. Its an issue many of us have. We feel its software related since it started to occur after flashing the Vegan Rom.
2. Could be a hardware issue for your sister's device. Back it up, wipe it and try it on the fresh install and see how it reacts. If it works fine, then its probably something software related. If it still drops, then its more likely hardware. Return it.
3. Again, faulty installation of the Rom. Back it up, wipe it, and try installing it again. Also you may want to try TNT to see if its Vegan 5.1 related (btw, it doesnt use internet explorer)
4. I would return it if these issues persist.
Hope this helps. Anyone with other advice please chime in.
Thanks,
Scott
For the powering off issue, it sounds like the button might be sticking, on mine it forces the tab off if i hold it down for even a few seconds.
Also by internet explorer, i assume you mean the android browser?
Also is your cousins tab experiencing any of the same problems?
Mine and my cousin's are alright. Only problem I've had is flash crashing occasionally and rebooting. I might try flashing TnT lite on hers and see if there's a difference.
I have to head to work will update once I work on hers more. And thanks for replying..

I have been running vegaN Beta5.1 for a while now. Used to have similar issues with power and such. I flashed Clemson 10.9.3 kernel, it is now up to 10.9.8 and the power issues went away. It also has the lag fix, and some other nice fixes. It installs just like any other rom.

market and youtube apps issue

Hi guys,
i'm currently running Prime 1.9 but this issue is not only happening on that version.
From the market, I can't download any apps or update them, but if I do a restore it will download perfectly. Also, i'm always getting a unable to connect to server in youtube apps.
I think it's my router because everything is running fine when I do a thetering from my cellphone.
But, i'm still not getting this, I did a DMZ on my IP address and it didn't change anything.
I have no idea what to do, it just start bugging like that three days ago.
Also, Gtalk is running #1.
Ideas will be appreciate.
Thanks

Synergy rom R67/Browser stopped loading pages

Hello,
Although my post count will show I am totally new here. I am quite comfortable with flashing/etc.
I have been running the Synergy rom since 1.4 and I absolutely love it.
(full wipe of the phone)
I recently installed the R67 nightly (wiped cache/dalvik)
After R67, I noticed that my browser would not load pages completely. It would show about 90% on the status bar and it just stops.
I have had the problem before on my HTC Incredible so I went through the normal motions.
Tested Wifi/3g/4g....all show the same behavior.
Cleared "data" for the app...
Cleared app cache....
Wiped system cache...
Force closed the app...
This was all still showing the same result.
I installed Chrome...same result?
That kinda threw me...I was expecting it to be limited to the stock browser.
I installed Firefox...eureka! it is working now....for about 4 pages...now the same thing is happning to it.
I hate to even appear to be calling out the Synergy guys. I think they have a great ROM, but it is the last thing to change on my phone. So I am reaching.
I did go through a few recommendations from other phone models, remove proxy from APN settings..etc..
I can not seem to figure it out.
Anyone else on R67 seeing this? Is it something more fundamental to the phone itself?

Love your opening line, I am in the same boat in regards to post count!
Have you flashed over the latest R68? I did not use 67 at all, infact started at 64, played with some JB developments, and came back to the most current 68 (with a darkhorse rises awesome theme!). I did not have any browser issues on the 64 build, and have "none" on the 68 build - well sort of: I have noticed that when I have been on wifi for a while, when disabling wifi, the data connection (which shows in the status bar as ok) seams to freeze up. Similar symptoms of what you described. What I had to do was disable the auto wifi connect, open an instant data drawing app (play store), close it, re-open it once or twice and boom! 4g data as advertised snaps back into action without any issues until I start using wifi again for a long period. This freeze appears to only happen when the auto wifi connect is enabled (need to verify that a bit). I would flash the current nightly and test. Chrome also seams to work a bit better than the stock browser, as it should. Stick with the rom, as you know its great. Hope that helps.

[Q] Slow wifi since 4.2.1

Anyone is experiencing a very slow wifi since the 4.2.1 update on a Asus TF700t? I can't even watch a 2 min video on YouTube.

I saw this post a few weeks back and have asked a few people on 4.2 about it and I'm not hearing anyone else cite this issue. You seem to have an isolated problem for some reason. Maybe something got corrupted during your "upgrade". If you can't fix it you'll probably have to backup your apps and data then do a factory reset and restore from backup to fix the problem.

Is there a way to save my apps and my savegame? Because it's a real pain to reinstall them one by one and loose my savegame from my favorite games.

Use Titanium Backup from market if you have root.

Some people have had success fixing this issue by disabling WiFi Optimzation in the wifi settings. Never had an issue myself, on or off, so I can't say it works from personal experience.
I'm having the same problem. I've tried downloading and reinstalling the factory ROM right from ASUS but that didn't fix it (so don't waste your time trying that).

I'm on 4.2.1 and was having awful WiFi performance. Disabling WiFi optimization did the trick for me. Cheers!
Could it be a YouTube server issue and not really your tablet? I'm was still running the .25 firmware and noticed about 3 weeks ago the playback of video clips was very rough. The problem was the video stopped loading and creating the buffer for smooth playback. It would load 20-30 seconds, then stop, and start back up. It lasted a few days and then was fine again. Nothing had changed in my set up.
Is your phone connected to the same wifi to test loading the same clips? How about testing the same clips from your computer or on your phone but using the cellular network? I'm just trying to toss some ideas for other possibilities for the youtube issue. How has the tablet performed for other tasks?

No it's not YouTube cause even my browser is very slow. I've try with the apps speedtest and the result is awfull.
Update: I've just try the wifi optimisation trick by unchecking the box, deconnecting and reconnecting to my wifi and the wifi performance is back. thanks you all.
