Wifi Calling - myTouch 4G General

I've been having issues with wifi calling with every ROM I've tried. It disconnects regularly every now and then.

I get that sometimes too. For me, it takes a long time to connect, but once it connects it usually stays. I think a lot of it depends on the wifi drivers for the rom. On CM7 I needed a much stronger signal to connect to wifi calling than on Unity 2.39. I need wifi calling cause I don't get service where I'm at, and Unity works real good for me so if you haven't given it a shot yet you might wanna try it. Hope this helps.

I think T-Mobile's WiFi calling system is unreliable, so no matter what ROM you're running, you're going to run into problems with it. Sometimes it won't connect at all, and I don't think I've ever made a WiFi call that didn't break up badly at some point during the call.

That is weird. In CM7 I always had a rock solid wifi signal and never had wifi calling issues. In all of the VU versions, I am currently on 2.39 my wifi signal always seems to not be strong enough. I always get the message that I am almost out of range and my calls may get disconnected. This message occurs even when I am in the same room as my router.

AR 5.1.9 Wifi Problem

When I'm on wifi my phone won't load any websites, the xda website won't load, neither will Google or any others. I knew there was a wifi problem with 5.1.8 so I waited for 5.1.9. Anyway can anyone tell Mike1986 about this problem because I don't have enough posts to ask him myself or better yet, could anyone give me a fix.

I went from 5.1.7 straight to 5.1.9 and i haven't had any problems yet. Have you tried deleting you connection and try re establishing your connect to your network

I am not sure what this problem is, but I've been running 5.1.8 since the day it was out, and even as I am typing this, and well, no wifi problems so far whatsoever.
There you go, it is supposed to be the wifi fix for AR 5.1.8
Wifi fix from AR 5.1.9
It looks like the only difference is the addition of this line in the file " system/etc/calibration "

I will have to say though, that I still have wifi issues despite implementing every fix I have found in these forums and trying multiple radios.
If I leave the phone on overnight, I always have to turn the wifi off and back on to get a connection, otherwise it seems to be connected but is not.
I also have terrible wifi reception. Sitting at the same spot in a cafe with my laptop and my phone shows a world of difference. I can pick up 6 AP's from my laptop but only see one on the phone.
Am running Cingular's OTA radio 26.06.06.30_M with HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM
Thanks for the help everyone, the restart method solved it. Also is anyone having camera problems. When I record a video and play back it skips and its really starting to get annoying.

Wi-Fi issues still present after the Gingerbread update:-(

Wi-Fi issues remain after the Gingerbread update...:-(
When I connect to a wireless network and try to stream or upload something my phone starts to lag. Now I cannot connect to a Wi-Fi network and have to reboot my phone. This is the exact behavior before the update...nothing has been fixed in this release ... I sure hope LG fixes the issues before T-Mobile pushes the OTA.

Personally never had this problem. I would revert back to stock and try and get a replacement phone.
This is my third replacement and all of them had this issue. It would work fine for a while and then it would start acting up...

really 3 replacements with that same problem? idk maybe its ur wifi at your house?
It is not my wi-fi, the phone does it on other networks and I've used my wi-fi with other devices-no issues...

I had wifi problems.....until I switched to cynogenmod.
I was about to get a sensation, but cannot consider giving up the benifits of cynogenmod. The additional features it adds, although small, all add up to a much better user experience, not to mention that it fixes the phone.

Which security type are you using on your WIFI? Maybe it's an issue with that specific protocol. Try changing the protocol back and forth for test purposes. It's possible it's one of the newer types of security and they really just aren't aware of a problem yet.
Also double check the firmware for your device. I understand that you say you've had it on other wifi and other devices work fine on your wifi, but I've had XBox's and computers that had problems with the firmware I was running but other devices worked fine.
I had the same stuttering problems as you using wifi with stock Froyo. The phone was close to unusable when streaming or downloading anything. Most of the time if wouldn't even switch from 4G to wif which was more annoyingi. With the gingerbread update wifi has dramatically improved and the switching is well under 10secs. Cm7 or anything based on it never worked for my wifi network sadly.
I have this very same problem. Turning on wifi I would still see the 4G icon and data activity. This has got to be so annoying after upgrading to gingerbread. Also now I have a new issue with the browser. This is issue is when the screen locks then unlocks the browser would automatically go back to the previous page. I mean why so many issues with this phone?

Aftsr V21e update, calls cutting in and out

Randomly on any call lasting more than 10 seconds...anyone else getting this?

I have issues receiving calls now. If they don't leave a voicemail then I don't know anyone called. This has been a rampant problem since updating. Thankfully very few calls that I make or *receive* have issues.

I missed three calls last night also, if not for texting, I would never have known.

It seems to work well for me, too -- when it works. That is, I have the same problem now that I did before the update: after a day or two of uptime, Wi-Fi Calling won't connect. It says "weak wifi signal," even with full bars on the signal strength icon. If I turn Wi-Fi Calling off and then back on, it sits forever trying to connect. The only remedy is to reboot the phone. It's kind of a pain; I don't get a very good signal inside my house, and the availability of Wi-Fi Calling was a major factor in my decision to upgrade from my Nexus One to the G2x.
i just made a call dont use the phone on it much and it was cutting in and out thought it wsa a bad connection . just gonna chalk this up as a lesson learned. its obvious complaining hasnt produced much of a result. No more LG for me.
and LG does not stand for like garbage- there are many that find garbage useful.
After 5 minutes it seems my call is disconnected - but thats been the case on every T-Mobile phone I've owned. Good thing I don't use the phone too often.

Any advice on improving WI-FI calling.

I get no signal inside my house.
No one is online and all computer are off.
Stock Gingerbread Tom.
You get no wifi signal or the wifi calling will not connect?

WI-FI connects and every thing
WI-FI related works great except WI-FI calling. I have the router in the middle of house. The call connection is fine at first then it acts like when a cordless phones go out of range static and echo.

I use WiFi calling all day without this issue. You might try telling your router to use a different channel, and/or looking for sources of interference.
That sounds more like internet connection quality to me.
I would try making sure nobody is running torrents or other high bandwidth stuff at the same time.
I had no issues with WIFI Calling on CM7. I recently switched back to the stock rom and have had jitter issues and poor sound quality. Hope this helps.

+1.. get the free wifi analyzer app.. then switch your router to the channel with the least interference.
I try that on my next day off.

What version is your wifi calling app?
Hope this helps.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
In the WiFi Calling app settings, check under Connection Preferences to be sure you have WiFi preferred for calling selected, just in case something changed it. Also, in the setting area, maybe under advanced, there is a menu option for log errors. That might help point to the problem and a solution.

I had the same problem when I was on stock rom. Once I updated the baseband and flashed a custom rom, I dont have that problem anymore.

Different WiFi problem?

My WiFi connection always says it's full but it takes longer than on 3g to load. I'm not even on hspa and it's faster than the WiFi. Yet when I do a speed test for the WiFi it's great. Anyone else have this problem or is this the same WiFi problem as before?

Facebook has actually been pretty good. It's the browsers that give me trouble. I got a different modem and router but I don't remember if it was doing it before that.

I get that alot, and it is truly annoying. I'm an android noob/apple convert and one of the biggest android quirks for me is that if wi-fi is "connected" the apps won't fall back to 4g if the wi-fi craps out. If i have 5 bars of 4G don't ****ing tell me I have no connection, use the 4G.

Exact same thing here.
I actually see my wifi bars go down to zero bars and come back up to full bars while browsing. I did a speed test and it slows the speed when it goes to zero or one bars. I tried to squeeze the phone between the camera and the volume rocker but it doesn't seem to fluctuate much by squeezing. Anybody else experience this? I'm on sick sense rom.

This is really starting to piss me off. I try loading a PhoneDog.com page and the loading bar just sits a 3/4 forever. After a long while it'll say something like connection timed out. I wish I knew if it was my router causing it or the phone. I'm thinking the phone because it did it in the previous one.
