Wifi troubles - HTC One S

Hey guys I got this phone couple of days ago. I have noticed wifi sucks on this device.When ever screen is off wifi disconnects. I flashed cm10 but same problem. Is there a fix available?
Using REGPON wifi KeepAlive app from playstore but its draining the battery....
Basically I'm having trouble receiving push notifications
EDIT:I have noticed this does not happen when its on charger without charger when I press power to wake the phone, the notification comes in immediately. No delay at all.

If you go into the Advanced WiFi settings, you can set it to keep wifi on during sleep.

It is on

may be try upgrading to the latest rom?

if you're in the US go for the T-Mobile 0.16 radio. if not try the other one. both should work fine

Unfortuantely that didn't work. I guess there is a hardware defect with my phone. Weird that it only occurs when phone goes in sleep and only affects wifi. A Google search showed that many people are having similar problem with. One x one s and evo 4g lte.

[Q] Issues over latest update

i apologize if this has been addressed before, but i was unable to find any threads about this.
I've had my tf since day one and have not had any issues until now. ever since updating my tf, it will now power itself off while in standby mode. This has happened three times so far.
2nd, the wifi connection is now dropping while in standby and it will not reconnect unless i power down and back on.
has anyone else ran into any issues with this new update?
No issues with most recent update here, it fixed all minor issues I was having though.
No Issues So Far
No issue so far for me either. Things seem to be much stable and fast. Will continue to monitor it through.
Sleep of Death still a problem.

This has happened to me occasionally with the new update. I have 2 separate things that happen.
1. Wifi will be connected but I can't get out to the internet (its not the wifi router)
2. Wifi drops and when I go into settings wifi is turning off, but never actually turns off and is just grayed out. When this happens I have to reboot.
Since installing the OTA update this morning (I'm in the UK) my tablets been going into 'deep sleeps' a hell of a lot more often. I've had about 5 already today when it previously only happened once every few days.
Very frustrating.
Have a 16gb and no problems for me.
Updated to the latest firmware and still turning off when put on standby

Wifi issues from standby 2.3.4

just wondering if anyone else has experienced issues with their wifi re-connecting after waking up from standby since 'upgrading' to 2.3.4? Mine used to be flawless, but now regularly experiences problems where it wont connect for ages or i have to restart the wifi or reboot.
Mine too would take awhile before re-connecting.
How long is "ages" for you? I never had to reboot the phone, but I have resorted to restarting wifi.
Yeah..weird, I have the same issues. Thank goodness I'm not the only one. Seems to take the wifi a min to kick in coming from standby. And its greyed out once it comes on...so goto takes ANOTHER minute for it to turn green! What gives?
Hopefully, this new patch will solve these issues...fingers crossed!

'Ages' would probably be a minute or so? This morning i had to exit the browser and restart wifi to get it working again. Not a major hassle but a bummer considering it worked so well before!
My Nexus S has the wi-fi re-connect issue as well. It takes a while to connect, sometimes it's immediate and somtimes up to two minutes.

Yeah Sprint is releasing an OTA fix July 11 that will make the phone have better 'signal acquisition'...we can only hope right?

Issue with wakelocks?

I have a nexus s 4g. Just got it about 5 days ago. Needless to say I've been flashing roms like crazy . I've finally settled on oxygen 2.2 for the time being, But I have noticed the past couple of days that my battery has been draining like crazy while its nothing use. About 3-4 % per hour. I downloaded better battery stats and noticed that I have partial wakelocks in wifi in the android system of about 26%. I'm on the stock kernel for oxygen, and haven't changed anything else. All my apps are the same as when I was on other roms. Has anyone else experienced this and if so is there a solution? Maybe flash another kernel? My wifi sleep policy is set to never...which has never caused me any problems before. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Here's a pic of what the battery looks like.

Do you use any apps like widget locker? I use oxygen but with matrix kernel and i don't have this issue.

No I don't use widget locker. I use a handful of Widgets, but they are the same ones I've been using for a long time and never had any issues with them. I turned wifi off for a while and rechecked my battery stats and low and behold none of the quite frequent wakes that I had before. Ill try another kernel tonight and see if that helps. Which version of matrix are u using?
From cellblock D
So one or many of your apps is set to sync every 10 minutes. I bet it even has a setting to check for a wifi connection.

So here's where I'm at now. I reflashed a different rom, and kerenl (deck 1.3), and only put gapps on there. After a few hours, I'm still getting wakelocks from wifi. Is my wifi radio busted? Or is this some flaw in one of the stock apps. I guess ill go through each one if the stock apps and see if there's a setting I'm missing.

[HACK] UPDATED **WIPE ALL** flashable zip
Well I have tried to reflash the radio, and checked all my core apps and can't find any reason for it. Does anyone have the zip that's in this thread above. I'm looking for the one that does the complete wipe that wipes boot and everything. I figured I'd try that to see if it helps. I guess my last chance after that would be to flash the newest update and try that radio to see if there is a difference. Thanks.

Nevermind. I found the zip....

Yeah. I always have it set to never. Though I did change the settings, and still no dice! I used the complete wipe to see if that makes a difference. Ill try it when I get home in the morning.
From cellblock D
So nobody has ever heard about this problem. Am I the only one that's having this issue?
Well I'm going to try the one click back to stock to see if that will help anything. Wish me luck!

I just started having this problem too few days ago. I tried flashing different roms and kernels, nothing helped. But today I disabled sync with gmail and seems to be alright now.

Ill give that a try and see if it works. I successfully one clicked back to stock (2.3.4) and made my way back to my current rom. Ill try the no Gmail sync when I get home on the morning. Thanks for the advice.
From cellblock D
I give up. I can't find out what causing this issue. I've turned all my syncing off, removed every app possible, removed all Google apps and I'm still getting these wakelocks from wifi. I'm going to my sprint store to see if I can swap my phone out, get a refurb or something. Glad nobody else is having this problem, cause it driving me freaking nuts!

Is the wifi wakelock happening when at home on hour network? Could be your router.

Yeah that's when it happening. I didn't think of my router because I've never had an issue before. What would make it do that? My security settings?

Nope, sorry... I've never seen this issue

Well I got a replacement from sprint. They were pretty cool about it. Good news :getting great battery life, mediocre news :wifi still doing its funky thing. It must be an app or some setting in the core apps, though while I'm still getting the wakes, my battery isn't draining hardly at all while on standby. I'm doing like 1 % per two hrs! One thing I did notice though is that I did not have this issue when I 1 clicked unroot back to 2.3.4? Weird but there it is.
Also my phone was doing it at the sprint store on their wifi, so I know it wasn't my router.

Does One XL still have delayed notifications on WiFi bug?

I used to have a One XL on AT&T, and when I was connected to wifi, my push notifications (email, gTalk, and pretty much everything else) would not come in until I turned the screen on. It was as if WiFi sent to sleep when my screen was off, even though it was set to always on. Many other people had the same problem.
Has the problem been fixed yet, or is this still something that some One XL users experience? Particularly curious if the Jelly Bean OTA fixes the problem.
If the problem has not been fixed by HTC, does running a custom ROM such as cyanogenMOD fix the problem?
Thanks for any feedback!
I actually just noticed this as i read this. This same thing happens on my one x att. It is like wifi is off when screen is off and right when i turn on screen and unlock 2 seconds later im spammed with notifications.

That is a power saving feature, it turns wifi off when screen is off. You can set it to always. I dont believe evita really has a wifi bug, like any other hardware some devices are incompatible and speciaply with computers some adapters and routers have issues with one another.

As I said in the op, I did have it set to always on. And this happened at all hours of the day, not just in the middle of the night. It could have been an issue with my router, but I didn't have the problem with any other android phone. And also, it was a pretty wide spread issue.

[Q] Nexus 5 WiFi issue

Hello everyone.
So, the wifi problem on my N5 goes back some time ago; it happened for the first time about 2 weeks after i got it, middle november i'd say:
i always keep my wifi connected while at home and sometimes it just refuses to send data anymore. The signal bar doesn't drop, but the data just stops working. I don't remember what i did the first time it happened, but it just started working as intented after a few days.(I was on 4.4.4 back then).
Now I'm on 5.0.1 and it had been working right for some time, until 2 days ago i unplugged my router then plugged it back it. Later that day I noticed the issue is back. I have absolutely no idea what to do about it and it is irritating as hell.
Did any of you guys experience this before? If so, how did you fix it?
Also, is it possible that this is a driver issue on the phone side? All my other devices work just fine on wireless.
Thanks!

you may also try forgetting your network and re-logging back in. also check the wifi frequency band and of course rebooting your router can’t hurt.

I tried all that but with no success. I think the router might be the issue since it does have some glitches where it loses connectivity and it fixes after a reboot. I'll try with another router and report after.

I have done a full factory reset on my phone due to this issue, and it still happens. It doesn't just happen at home either, it happens everywhere I go. I am assuming at this point that it is a bug in 5.0/5.0.1 and hopefully it will be fixed in 5.0.2 (if the N5 ever see's this update).
If anyone has had any luck with this bug, please let me know.
I'm having the same issues. I'm now on my 4th router in as many months and I can't figure this out after testing just about every possible configuration of channels, frequencies and settings. We have about 10 devices connected in my home and the Nexus 5 is the only device with this problem. I'm at the point now that I just use LTE at home.
Yeah it's a 5.0.1 issue, if you've found your way to XDA you should try a custom ROM. Most are branched from the aosp 5.0.2 commits.

Did Lollipop rid the wifi options of "wifi optimization" and "avoid poor connections?" I used to keep those options unchecked for a more stable wifi connection.

But I had this same problem on 4.4.4 for a little while, that's why I was inclined to think it was something to do with my router.
Ahhh okay, yeah it very well could be.
I just had to replace my logic board due to faulty wifi, I got the always 'WiFi turning on' bug.

That setting checkbox was missing in advanced wifi settings since 5.0 (and the option was forced to "on")
According to this post this has been fixed in 5.0.2:
