Wifi speed is bad, real bad. - G Tablet General

I just updated to the most recent version of ROM - 1.2] BETA ICS 4.0.X - Team DRH and my wifi download speed on my Gtab is about 50k/s as opposed to anywhere in the neighborhood of my 30MB connection speed. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

It depends on what you are doing too. I found that I couldn't install more than one app at a time without the speed dropping to almost nothing. After installing a few apps like that and restarting and cleaning cache and fixing permissions a few times it has gotten better. I know there are some wifi fixes out there but I think the beta should work OotB. Mine kept getting better for at last 24 hours with reboots, and clearings.

Juice defender problems?

anyone else having problems with the most recent update of Juice defender?
Running Kings kernel #6 and #8 (that i've tried, and its causing extreme lag)
seems like this started after last update to it if I recall.
anyone have a rolled back version of Ultimate juice?
Can you give any more info on what exactly is going wrong? Is the touchscreen just not responding quickly, or is the whole phone that's chugging along? Juice defender on my phone always takes a second or so to re-enable everything after I unlock the screen, and I had an issue for a while where that would take 10+ seconds for it to do this.
Wiping the cache and Dalvik seemed to fix the issue, but I haven't the slightest idea why. That's what worked for me, but if you've tried different kernels and wiped in between flashes and you're still having the issue, your guess is as good as mine.
i had to uninstall juice defender... it was causing everything to go so slow.. even the KB would lag that it would input the secondary fuctions like if i would long press... it kinda ruined the BFS kernel if you ask me
Both hardware unresponsive and chugging during scrolling and selection.
Terribly bad.
Its either SetCPU or Juice defender doing it.
I installed SETCPU and did my thing for 2 hours and it was fine.
installed Juice defender, problems arose.
uninstalled Juice defender, Problem persisted.
Uninstalled SETCPU problems went away.
so tried to opposite the cycle and install Juice defender first.
Phone is now problematic again.
So my guess is not only is Juice defender the problem but its causing an issue with SETCPU as well
(I am not using the CPU option in Juice defender before anyone asks)
yeah, like I said multiple roms, using Amon Ra recovery (since I don't feel clockwork wipes well) and have wiped dalvik/cache , problem still persists.
I've noticed that SetCPU has been updated recently, and maybe they just arent playing well together, But even with SetCPU uninstalled JuiceDefender is wreaking havoc, phone is completely unusable, I can barely uninstall the application after its been installed, have to reboot phone and get to it within 30 seconds before it bogs down and lags phone.
Edit: so its not just me? also running kings and last few days with JD installed its killing me, Which sucks because it really did double my battery life.
Literally didn't lose 1% battery when screen was off all night unplugged haha.
I had just installed Juice Defender 4 days ago and I gotta admit, I was kinda hesitant to do so. I have read quite a few posts regarding the slow downs and sluggishness related to juice defender. As of today, I couldn't be happier with it. My battery life has definitely improved (I'm getting at least 5+ hours more a day with JD running). And i haven't experienced and slow downs or delays with any of my evos functions. I'm running cm 6 nightly (forget which one) with snap 7.11 kernel, and setcpu.

I was stupid enough to actually buy this crapplication. it slows down my system every time I think "let's give it one more try". It slows it down to the point that it is completely unresponsive and doesn't do anything at all but sits there until I kill the application.
If you're experiencing this as well. just uninstall it, best thing you'll do for yourself.
something ruined the App in the most recent update thats for sure, I'll have to report and watch for further development because it truly is great when it works.
The recent update messed everything up, I actually stopped using it after the update because its not helping anything at all. Hopefully the developer gets the kinks worked out.

did you hav the "Stable" or BETA version" the BETA is much much better than the "stable".
Ultimate Juice always caused lag for me when I used it. It is a completely useless app, in my opinion, since SetCPU + the natural battery life is fantastic.

Im running Juicedefender ultimate, 1.8.8 Fresh 3, netarchy 4.1.9 and everything is awesome. batt x 2.46 and no lag
i don't know what version is in the market, but when i'm on sense roms i use 2.1.7 i will attach it for you guys. this one works well on the evo. like really well.
uninstall whatever version is in the market and try this one out
on CM6 i normally just turn data off from the power control widget, this nets awesome battery life.

Most people don't have any issues with this app. Maybe you should check to make sure it isn't something else entirely, or maybe just another app like setCPU conflicting.

whats the difference from the apk you posted to the one in the market?
The one in the market is the latest stable (v1.8.8) - while thedudejdog attached the latest beta available that time. You could also check http:/latedroid.com/beta/latest/ (sorry, as a new user I cannot post this as working link) for the always latest beta (currently v2.2.0).
But as I'm just here: I currently have installed the latest stable (1.8.8), and have some severe problems with it. What is the best way to switch to the beta (to give JD another chance) without losing the settings - if that's possible at all?
My probs with 1.8.8:
As soon as JD is running and the screen switches off, my IRC client (AndChat) loses the connection
I cannot "configure apps" - JD won't save the changes. With a little trick I can do changes here - but settings are always saved for 1 app only, i.e. if I enable/disable app b with this trick, settings of app b are saved - but those of app a (configured previously) are lost. That means there can only be 1 app configured at a given time.
If JD disabled data completely, they sometimes can be enabled only by a phone reboot (yes, I heard this may also be Android-2.1 specific).
With those problems persisting, the app would be quite useless to me: what does it help if I gain 2..5 hours (or even a day) of battery when I'm not able to use the phone as I require? Without JD, it currently lasts for about 3 full days. Gaining more would be nice - but compared to any trouble I'd prefer staying with my 3 days

[Opinion][Updated]Inspire Best ROM (I tried them all)

I got my Inspire on release day at 11:00am when BB opened and by 3pm i ran the ace hack kit and it was rooted and had a DHD ROM flashed on the phone. For the first week there was not a whole lot of ROM's or options, but week 2 and 3, they popped up like a bag of popcorn.
The first set of ROM's and kernels (Desire HD ROM's) left people with dingy sound, no you-tube or any video support at all for that matter. Other people experienced Wi-Fi problems as well. Different fixes and patches came out fixing most problems, except sound seems to be the biggest headache trying to find the right combination of audio settings, drivers, etc.
My favorite ROM was CoreDroid, basically because the theme is beautiful, but no matter what radio/kernel I used It took literally 15 minutes to get a satellite lock. I tried faster fix from the market, I went into the system to make sure it was set to North-America and not Europe nothing worked.
Android Revolution is another awesome ROM, however, I had Wi-Fi issues. "Obtaining IP Address" is as far as it would get before finally disconnecting. Once again I flashed different radios and kernels and still no go.
What I finally kept is the Stock ROM Optimized Rooted and to make this ROM super responsive I used LeeDroid's 1.8Ghz Kernel. I use SetCPU and keep it at 1.267Mhz. (1.6Mhz when playing games or multitasking. Never locked up) I can open my app drawer and give it one flick, and i can watch 90 apps zoom by in less then a second with no hesitation ever. It's very fast, very smooth, no force closes, Gps hits 9 satellites in less then 15 seconds we have full lock, mobile data is 3.8 down, 2.2 up (average) bluetooth file transfer works, and voice activated dialing, sound is perfect, and for people looking to tether, just get wireless tether from the market. It does Wi-Fi and bluetooth. I tethered to my playstation 3 just to see how well it would do a HD netflix stream, and it was flawless. Never had to stop to buffer.
I'm also on the stock radio which is 06.04.06_m, Everything is so smooth and perfect I see no need to change until AT&T releases there version of gingerbread and it has ROOT access. The problems I have had with different ROM's are isolated and doesn't mean your going to have the same problem. It's weird but that's how it works. 2 exact phones, both running same setup, can have 2 totally different problems. Just the way it is in Flashing Land.
I'm no Pro, just giving my opinion and facts with my particular unit. The different ROM's seems to be like the captivate. You gain something, you lose something.
Super Circle Battery Icon works great as well. Get it here
3/16/2011 - Version 2 flashed without a glitch. Wireless, Gps, mobile data, all work as well or better. I also flashed LeeDroid's 2.2. 6 o/c kernel and everything is dead on. Great Job
That's all I want to do it root it, increase the volume and get wifi tether working. Right now if you want to not have any drivers issues it seems like the current on the phone works best Thanks for the info!
I also wanted to increase the cpu speed, did you take much of a hit on the battery?

Not at all, it last all day. Put SetCPU on "ondemand" and when I'm not using phone for awhile I simply type *#*#4636#*#* and set is to GSM only and that's another way to save a lot of battery. I also use a app called easy switch where I can turn off mobile data completely when not in use. I have awesome battery life.
i've been using the cm7 nightlies. i don't particularly enjoy htc sense and rather prefer the aosp style android.
I too am loving the Stock ROM Optimized-Rooted-etc. I've only tried it and a build of CM7, which seemed not quite as smooth as the aforementioned ROM. Additionally, whenever I played the game Rush Hour and got a perfect score, it would always force close [not a problem with the stock-optimized ROM].
I am considering trying LeeDroid's kernel on top of Stock-optimized ROM to boost performance a little more, but I'm a little unsure about the process. Do I just copy his kernel to my sd card and then flash it in CWM Recovery using the "install zip from sdcard" command? I assume a similar technique is used to install the super circle battery mentioned in the OP?
I don't see RCMix HD in the OP. I've been using 3.4 and it's solid. If you look at the thread there's hardly any complaints.
Great write-up. I've been thinking about starting a thread asking developers/users to give a quick description of popular ROMs and go over the pros/cons. It's kind of difficult to sift through 200+ pages of discussions about each ROM and get a clear idea what it's like. Thanks for throwing your 2 cents in. I've been happy with the stock rooted ROM, but I've thought about trying out a couple of others, maybe Revolution, if anyone wants to through 2 more cents into the pot.

I really like the Stock Rom Optimized Rooted as well. I'm not getting as high upload speed as you are, but about 4 times higher than I was getting out of the box. And everything is very smooth onscreen as you mention.
I like Hybrid1.72.zip battery icon with it.
I haven't tried overclocking yet, but after reading your post, that is my next project!

this 4.2 Gingerbread version is pretty good IMO, its GPS is accurate, WIFI no problem.

does mobile hotspot work right off the spot without any setting changes?
Im building a rom/kernel now based off stock Rom and compiling kernel from inspire source. Already got the extended power menu done, hopefully it'll be out in a few days. Not sure if the kernel will be done or not but hopefully I can get it out at the same time as the Rom.
+1 for Optimized Stock Rom. I liked Android Revolution, but my Inspire would take 10-15 minutes to get a GPS lock. With OSR, I get lock in 15-30 seconds. No downside to this ROM at all for me!

Nice. I used your Captivate ROMs and had great results. I guess I know the next ROM I will be flashing.

I also still use one of your Roms and will without fail try one in the Inspire when you finish cooking!
Right now I'm undecided and switching between Revolution 4 Beta 2 Gingerbread and twopumpchump's Stock optimized with LeeDroid kernel. I'm getting better download speeds with the latter option but both are exceptionally good roms.

[Q] CM7 Problems. Want UberBAMF.

So I'm not sure what part of CM7 is not working for me, but I'm definately not happy. Three main reasons are:
ADW Force closing
Choppy scrolling
Poor signal/3g 4g toggling
I'm running MR2 and the kernal that came with the ROM in ROM Manager. I tried ADW EX and it does the same thing.
Is there anything I can do to improve this? I'm looking for a daily driver that is smooth, quick, and no force closing! I like Sense, but not the bloat. I would sacrifice performance for battery life.
I've seen some vids on UberBamf and it looks great! But I've also seen some good vids on CM7, it just does not work well on my phone. What are some suggestions?
I've been running Cyanogen 7.0.3 on my Desire for like 2 months. A few days ago I tried the v6 supercharger script, and the second day, I noticed my phone started to be real slow : switching UI auto-rotate on from the pulldown notification bar would take like... TEN SECONDS (used to take one, not 10, lol). And others... such as TERRIBLY SLOW DOWNLOAD from Market.
I restored the NANDROID backup I did like 3 weeks ago (before I even used v6 supercharger -- which I find useless, by the way...) and that didn't solve anything !
I flashed MIUI, and it wasn't lagging anymore. Now I am using LeeDrOiD, and again, no lag. So it's not my phone's hardware... but something wrong with Cyanogen !
Cyanogen has announced that they'll be launching CM 7.1 soon, and they say it'll be pretty rocking, so... we just have to wait.

[Q] Random vibrations and weak Wifi reading- sky ICS (4.1)A-3

Hello there everyone. I recently flashed seanzscreams sky ICS leak rom. Everything seems to be in working order.
However there are two problems for me at least:
1. The wifi indicator never indicates a strong signal even if I am standing right next to the router.
2. There are random vibrations occurring when the phone is asleep or when I unlock it to do something. I thought that this was just google music vibrating to tell me its switching songs, but It happens randomly as well as then.
Just wondering if anyone else is getting this issue, and if so, should I try re-flashing even though Im not getting and FC's. I will fix permissions and post results.
Phone stats:
Version: 4.0.3
Baseband: I727UCALC4
Kernel: [email protected]#1
Build number: SKy ICS 4.1A-3

I have the EXACT same problem. Both of them in fact...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
I believe it is due to any specific program that hasn't been optimized for ICS or the ROM itself, because I don't experience it, but I've heard of such problems on all ICS roms
I think it's from things force closing in the background.
I've been having the same issue, but I'm pretty sure it's due to the AOSP lockscreen. If you can tell Play Music glitches on the lockscreen and incorporates its self with Samsung locks screen. So definetely some sort of glitch going on.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
All of the ICS ROMs suffered from the same 2 things mentioned. My WiFi signals were much weaker than on any GB ROM unfortunately.
I removed AOSP lockscreen and am still getting the random vibrations. Mine seem to be coming from the CM9 music app.

Hey everyone, how about trying out a different kernel?
For me, I switched to Romracer's kernel for ICS and I have no random vibrations or apps FCing in the back ground. You can also try Mohan's kernel as it seems to be better suited for AT&T.
When flashing the kernel always do a nandroid, but wipe both cache and davlik (its under advance.) Then after the kernel flash is complete just let the phone sit for a couple of minutes to make sure that everything settles into memory properly.
Something else that I noticed yesterday, I was doing a ton of memory wipes, (taking screen shots for different themes...) but my data connection was patchy as hell. Random drops and disconnects even though I was in Downtown of my city. Any way long story short you just need to let your phone settle down its been about 12 hours since my last cache & davlik wipe and my data connection seems to be holding properly without any further adjustments.

[Q]Fixing wifi crash/reboot; G2X-SINGH-UI is AMAZING

Hello everyone, I have been enjoying my G2X with SINGH-UI thanks to all the work of this community. I just have one problem, however...
Every time I toggled the Wi-Fi subsystem my G2X would hang or reboot. e.g If I turned Wi-Fi on then off, the next attempt to turn it on would crash. If I turned Wi-Fi tethering on then off, the next attempt to turn it on would crash etc. The Wi-Fi and/or tethering worked flawlessly when it succeeded in activating. This problem just guaranteed that the next time I'd try to do anything with Wi-Fi, my phone would crash.
I wasn't sure if there was a solution because most people were talking about Wi-Fi calling not working, data not working, Wi-Fi not working at all, etc. As per nycelitemaster's recommendation, I installed Trinity's ELP kernel then installed my kernel. This seemed to have helped a little bit but the problem arose once more.
Since I can't post in the developer thread yet, I thought I'd just post here to say thanks and present this little tip/question. Sorry for posting before an exhaustive search; perhaps in the wrong place, but I couldn't contain my curiosity and appreciation. Is this problem common and does it have a definite solution?
I am currently running the latest baseband (v21y) with matching RIL and LOVE it. Everything works; I get a few rare force closes but the system remains active and I can restart apps successfully. It is stable, fast and very pretty with MIUI themes. I also like the battery life with Faux123's P999-CM-Kernel-054-sv-lg-stable. I get about 12 hours standby on a 3500mah extended battery which is pretty good considering I have to be 3G only on my Mobile network (Mobilicity, Canada).
- I'm using Antutu CPU Master to set CPU powersave speeds; I noticed higher benchmark results after purchasing the full version.
- I did battery calibration by manually deleting battery stats in Clockwork Mod recovery.
- I'm enjoying figuring things out! It's been a wonderful journey nurturing my phone from the state it was in when I bought it used.
I'm not sure whether the new Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean ROMS are complete yet so I'll stick with my current one because it's working amazingly well.
My initial disappointment with this phone has turned to satisfaction. Thanks to everyone for keeping the G2X alive in spite of the manufacturer(s) abandonment.
