WiFi problem with stock ROM. - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running stock Motorola 4.4 with gravity box and Xposed. My WiFi connection is very unstable where it basically drops randomly for a few seconds which is a severe ordeal when using apps like hangouts and skype. My internet connection has no issues and this happens with my phone well within range. I have turned off the 'drop poor connections' option from the WiFi settings. I also turned off WiFi optimization if that is supposed to do anything.
Previously I was running CM and Gummy ROM and had no such issues with them. Its interesting to note that previously I was running with jelly bean radio and only updated my radio when I came to stock ROM. I suppose I could go back to a custom ROM and see if its still happening but man restoring and all is just so much time consuming.
What I want to know is that are other people facing the same issue with stock ROM?

Also having wifi issues for the first time this am. I had the phone off during the night. Turned it on this am and wifi is very unstable. It keeps turning off. I reconnect and it turns off again. I'm completely stock with 4.4.3.
Router is fine. My other devices work great. I'm only 3 feet from the router and the Moto G still can't maintain a connection.

No issues here. If I where you, I would download the full 4.4.4 firmware image for your model and flash via fastboot. That will absolutely solve your problem.

[Q] Strange Problem?

Hi guys, I got the nexus 5 a while back and I have successfully rooted and flashed Cataclysm ROM with the Elemental Kernel.
I have a really strange problem where the WiFi does not work at all. I turn the WiFi on, but it does not scan and find any networks, so I cannot see any WiFi networks in the area. I reflashed the ROM cleanly and the problem went away for a while, but it is now back and I cannot find and networks around me.
The only network it picks up is my home network that I set the phone up with when it was working, but now I have to enter even that manually.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does the wifi work when you do not use the Cataclysm ROM and it was completely stock? Or before you even started did you just root it and load a ROM?

That is strange because I am running it along with Franco Kernel and I am doing fine..... Are you doing anything else?

[Q] Strange problem with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Wireless tethering

Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.

My One won't reconnect to network after it looses signal

Hi there,
Everything was working just fine, but since I switched to a new carrier I can't get the network back as soon as my OP looses it (subway for example). I have 4G as my favorite internet mode and my APNs are good.
Only a full reboot fixes it, not even a soft one. What can I do?
I use the lastest CM 12.1 S rom (YOG4PAS3JL)
Maybe I should try to flash Oxygen's modem? http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...dio-updated-modem-radio-files-oxygen-t3072516
It seems many users are affected by the problem but I didn't find a real solution, hence my post.
Thank you!
After a long investigation, it seems that the OPO is having trouble switching for and from 4G. I solved it using 3G as my preferred network, but I'd have loved using 4G
reinstall the system... u can google fastboot images for opo... flash them through CMD
I've tried 3 ROMS and at least 4 modems so I think I've tried eveything that's available atm
I have had the same problem for some time now. But no reliable solutions found. Have tried various versions of ROM and Radio. Currently using 44S and CM 12.1 S (YOG4PAS3JL).

Didn't fix the problem. Finally reverted back to Oxygen OS. Complete reinstall, including bootloader, storage, everything. Got it done at OPO service centre. Much better reception now.

[help] My WiFi is slow and disconnects

So last night my phones wifi was working fine. That's until I made a few modifications to it.
Things I did:
Installed TWRP Recovery Menu Moto G port
Installed CM13 Osprey Nightly 20160704
Installed SuperSU
Installed Gapps
Right after all that I realized my WiFi wouldn't connect during the CM13 setup. It just said saved after I entered the password. I tried manually connecting it, it went from full bars to one bar then goes back to saved.. When my phone actually connects to the WiFi it is running extremely slower than normal. It also disconnects at random times.
Things I've tried to fix the problem:
Reinstalling ROM w/wo Gapps & w/wo SuperSU
Trying new router
Allowing all permissions that were not allowed
Enabled legacy DHCP client (saw on a forum)
Contacting ISP to see the strength of modem
If anybody has a solution it would be appreciated. I am not sure what to do. Also im in the same room as the router so the connection strength should be solid. If any other information is needed I'll provide it asap. Thank you.
Try Resurrection Remix, Turbo, CandySix or another ROM... there was grumblings of WiFi issues on the last few CM nightlies in various forums (not just Moto G, but not all devices).
Just flash Resurrection Remix (or whichever ROM) and Mini or smaller gapps package, should be better.

I just finished flashing a new ROM. The ROM was called Turbo. But the sad news is I am still having the issue with the WiFi. Its extremely slow and sometimes I will lose connection to it.
Question: is it possible when I flashed a new recovery/ROM and rooted the device of ruined the WiFi adapter?

It shouldn't. If you are using a case check by removing it. Otherwise flashing firmware via fastboot again may help. I was having a problem of phone rebooting when sim was inserted, I flashed firmware and was good to go. It can solve issues with phone radio and subsequently (maybe) your wifi.

Very odd... Flashing a ROM or recovery doesn't touch the modem/radio firmware, although the WiFi on the Moto G 2015 is largely driven by the kernel modules that are compiled with it. Both CM and Turbo, and most roms for the G3 are based on CyanogenMod.
My next step would be to try another kernel, I use squid and WiFi works fine, but any newer kernel has the latest kernel drivers. If the results are the same, might be time to step back and reflash the latest stock Marshmallow image completely and work backwards... Root, test, Flash kernel, test, flash rom, test, etc.
You were in marshmallow before starting the whole thing, right?

I was on marshmallow before I did everything. Before I proceed with flashing the original Marshmallow image, is there anything I should take not of during the processes? Also this will make me sound like a noob but what do you mean flash the kernel?

I do not have a case on my phone. But I will try to remove my sim card while I go back to the original Marshmallow image. Hopefully it works out

Restoring the stock images is pretty simple, just log the process... It will return to compete stock.
In the Original Development area there are custom kernels, you can flash them with TWRP to replace the stock ROM kernel. Squid is my personal favorite, we'll balanced without tweaks.

Either restore the nandroid you (should) have from before rooting/flashing, or use lost101's guide and rom images to flash via fastboot. The threads are in general.

I don't have a backup because I don't have enough storage. But I did follow lost101s guide.
The bad news is I am still having issues with the wifi. It's not as bad though the speed is decent and it disconnects a lot and just shows saved.
Therefore the problem shouldn't be with the custom rom and I tried using a different device to see if it's my internet but it worked fine.
My conclusion is either the wifi/Bluetooth adapter needs to be replaced.
Although my problem was not solved thank you for trying to help me solve the issue! Much appreciated.
Oh a post after a long time.
I have been having exactly same issues but only with nougat roms.
If I restore my rr marshmallow backup wifi works just fine.
Is flashing stock firmware the only solution?

Moto G XT1032 intermittent Wi-Fi disconnection

Hi everyone,
Recently I've noticed that my phone is getting disconnected from Wi-Fi every now and then. I'd like to add that a few days ago, I was using a 5.1.1 custom ROM and that never used to happen. I wanted to try something new, so I flashed a 7.1.2 ROM and then I started having this issue. I even flashed some other 7.1.2 ROMs and it was still occurring. Actually, I tried with a 6.0.1 ROM and it also happened. Of course I downloaded all of this ROMs here in XDA, so I think I can say that I got them from a good source. BTW, one day it happened again when I was using 3G, so it hasn't only happened with Wi-Fi.
I don't use my phone just to chat or use facebook, I play games a lot, games that need that my phone is constantly connected to the internet, so this really bugs me. If there's something I can do or something I'm not aware of, I'd be happy if anyone could help me
I Had Same Problem with My Moto.
Just Reflash Ur Stock KK Firmware Through Fastboot Mode It Will Solve Ur Problem.
