having strange wifi problems. - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When using wifi, my mate 8 will remain connected but the internet does not function sometimes. The wifi works because usually im using my PC at the same time. But ive noticed it hangs on other wifi connections too. Im not quite sure whats wrong, i turned on my data speeds and it downloads 307 b/s while doing this strange stuttering. It usually causes youtube errors or some game apps that make you watch ads will result in a splash screen error message. Not quite sure whats wrong with it but its annoying having to wait about 30 seconds for it to load my webpage even if the wifi was just working fine a second ago. Any tips or help? Anyone experiencing the same thing, im on B352 AL-10 firmware.

Hey there! I am having the same issue and drives me nuts as I don't have a proper data connection at home.

I currently have the same problem. I have to restart my phone and I do that, all related apps to google play stops as well displaying a message "google play services are updating". I found a work around this issue that I downgrade "google play services" using apitode then updating the service using play store.
But is really frustrating to do that 2-3 times a day.

Amazon Apps requiring Internet Access??

Hey Gang!
I'm really stumped and frustrated right now. I have ALWAYS been able to play my Amazon Apps (Plants vs Zombies, Glow Hocky, Angry Birds, Peggle, etc) when not connected to the internet UNTIL today! For some reason now when I try to play offline, it tells me that the app requires internet connection?! Is something messed up?
This is really pissing me off! Did Amazon change something??? Anyone else having this problem?
I have no problem playing offline, I tried peggle.
Update... ok so I did some research and found out that sometimes uninstalling the Amazon app, shutting down, rebooting and then reinstalling the app will fix the problem. Crazy, but seems that since the Amazon Apps only work when the Amazon App Store is installed sometimes it doesnt see it being offline and shoots out the "internet connection needed error". Weird!
It's due to the licensing function of the app store. You should be able to use offline, but you probalby got caught in between a "token outdated" time period.

How to fix Google Play Services Has Stopped ?

Hi all.
Out of the blue I got this error message every minute.
I use Unofficial Beanstalk ROM 5.0.2.
Stock kernel.
I cleared cache, and Dalvik. I also cleared cache of Google Play Services and Google Services Framework.
But this error keeps coming back.
I haven't changed anything in the phone nor have I messed with any system settings.
I can't find any decent solution to the problem.
The apk shows version 7.5.71 (1955121-438)
Appreciate your help.

AFAIK, there is no "decent" solution at this time.
Please change your Location setting to Device Only. It will stop the FCs for the time being.

No one knows why it happens or how to solve this? wierd.
How is this related to device location settings?
Out of nowhere I get "Google Play Services" has stopped working messages like every 20sek. Working with the phone is impossible and my Moto 360 doesn't work anymore either Using Stockrom CM12S with franco kernel, any ideas or solution?
Same problem here. This is so annoying!
Will try "device only" now. AFAIK this uses only GPS to get your current location - so this should dramaticly increase battery drain, right?
This trick didn't help
Same case. I am also getting these errors. there are solutions people have posted to disable GPS. But the phone is useless when it is without GPS.
Waiting for a fix ASAP.
For me it actually did! In another thread another solution came up: try enabling "keep awake", "wake up" and "autostart" in Privacy Guard for the Google Play Services. This also worked for me (although my Privacy Guard was not enabled for the Google Play Services the settings still did matter! So make sure to really enable them in the submenu!).
The random crashing seems to occur when:
location "high accuracy" PLUS Google Play Services are limited in Privacy Guard (keep awake, wake up, autostart)
Disabling one of the two should fix the problem.
BTW disabling GPS didn't solve the problem for me. "device only" means you only use GPS and not network location. The network location thing is what causes the crashing in combination with the Privacy Guard. So (at least for me) no need to disable GPS.
Looks good. Let me see if there is any issues now. I remember we all changed the "keep awake", "wake up" and "autostart" in Privacy Guard for the Google Play Services in an older version of Google Play Services.
Hope this is all fixed now and should not drain the battery (as it did in previous version).
How I solved the Play Services stopped FCs
Hardly this last version of Google Play Services will work properly, either clearing the data, blocking services on Privacy Guard, etc. Tested many things and the problem comes from the last update of Play Services, which includes in its changelog suspiciously some "Location Api improvements".
In my experience these last days the problem it seems to come when the services requests for location. If you use Apps asking frequently for locations you'll have the error very often, making usefulness your phone, as least mine. Using 3 Apps needing GPS location at same time is frustrating..
How I solved for now:
Go to Play Store, find Google Play Services in your Apps
Click on Uninstall (only will uninstall the last update of Google Play Services).
From that moment, some advice about certain Google Apps (Hangouts, Google Maps, etc.) may appear if you have these Apps installed. Ignore them, otherwise you'll need to update again if you want to use them, but...
But I can't find google play services in play store.
GPS vs Networ in Location fixed

Same as TerrorApple. Disable Location services, but as this is needed often enable Location services only with GPS. This worked for my device

Google Services problems on wifi?

Alright so i am currently having a few problems with my Nexus 5 and to be frank, they are quite odd. First off, I can no longer get any wifi from my school, i cant connect but everyone else can. I have no idea why. Then, when i try to login into my google accounts in my phone, i get an error, wether if its youtube, google play, or any app that lets me log in using my google account i get a message saying "no wifi or cellular network connection" now, the worst part is, all of these services work fine when im on lte, so whenever i want to download an app or watch youtube videos, i have to be using lte which is not the best thing to do. Any suggestions? ive tried clearing the cache of my google play services and stuff but nothing seems to work. Ive also tried to flash new gapps but that still didnt cut it.
Thanks to anyone responding to me in advance.

Huge CPU usage after update Google play services 12.7.x

Hi.
I got these problems these days:
1. My phone looses wifi signal and cannot reconnect again.
2. I activated cpu monitor from developer option and see huge CPU usage some time and fast battery draining.
3. Some time (when my phone cannot connect to the WiFi) I tried to soft rest the mate 8 then the phone hang and I have to use hard reset to reset the phone.
After that I checked my apps to find the problem and I saw the Google play service is updated to v 12.6.73 then I uninstalled the update in installed Google play services v 12.5.29
The problem is solved now but unfortunately the Google play services update automatically and then the problem begin again.
I cannot find any solution to disable Google play services automatically update .
(I have disabled automatic update from goolge play store but problem exist)

Extremely slow play store updates, anyone else experiencing?

Anyone else having this issue where the Play Store will update apps extremely slow? I've had many, many android phones and this is the first time I've had this issue with any of them (5T included).
Now, both times it has been linked to me doing something. The first time it was me detaching youtube vanced from the playstore. It caused updates to either install slowly, or not at all. I at least understood this as unhooking that tripped something in the play store....it made sense.
This second time was after installing the official twrp (coming from unofficial) and restoring a nandroid. Now the installs are happening, they're just much, much slower. Before an update would start and immediately after it was finished downloading the install would start. Now it is taking 30 seconds to a couple minutes PER APP after the download is finished for install to start. Once it says "installing" things take a normal amount of time. Since this doesn't appear to be linked to the play store in any way, now I'm completely out of reasons as to why it would be doing this.
I'm really losing my mind here. The first one I had to use the MSM tool to fix, clearing cache, uninstalling/reinstalling play store did nothing. I'd really rather not have to do this again, but I also can't have it taking half an hour to update 13 apps (normally this would be done in 5 or so minutes, I'd estimate).
I had this too. I tried various solutions but the only one that actually worked for me was deleting my google account, rebooting and the setting up my google account again.
Go to apps and try clearing data and cache for the play store and play services.
For me it's a network issue with Oneplus 6. Google play think that you are not connected to WiFi.
Try to disable Wifi and enable it again the download will instantly start.
I update to 5.1.6 and enable smart network switch. I hope it will fix the issue.
Is it just a slow network issue? My OP6 is extremely fast on LTE and WiFi.

In my case no.
Download is not starting because google play doesn't consider WiFi enabled.

Are you on wifi or lte?
Check play store setting is set to auto update not do not update.
It drove me crazy when i got the phone setup. I always set to Do Not update on all my android devices. It is Oreo things I guessed.
Unistall update for Google play. It works forum me.
