Once may be....
But my wifi is stable in lollipop.

It's stable running stock or custom LP?

I had this happen a few days ago here at work, but the problem was the router and not the phone.

I'm using stock lollipop.

Update bootloader and radio to the latest August update. Worked for me.

Wifi Drops on Droid Ultra

I had wifi drops before on an Atrix2 on stock when I updated via OTA to ICS.
When I installed custom roms, that problem wasnt there, I had a problem and I had to flash stock rom with rsd lite for some reason the issue was gone.
I think the problem comes when the phone is updated via OTA, maybe it wilk be gone if I flash a stock rom with RSD lite.
Is there anyway to solve it? Did anybody have this problem before?
Solved!

Just changed Wifi Frequency Band to 2.4ghz in advanced.
This has worked for me with lots of wifi networks but dont know why there is still 1 which continues with the problem.

WIFI Weak on LOLLIPOP

Hi
I have a very annoying issue regarding WiFi. After flashing any custom kernel (Ak, furnace...), my wifi speed turns very very slow, it drops from 40 mbs to 2 mbs.
And the only way to fix it is with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brilliapps.wifiandmorefixer&hl=es
As i said this happens after a kernel change. I changed thing on my router, like channel, security protocols, qos but no way, it´s not a router problem.
Also i restored the phone to stock ( including a bootloader relock, etc...)
Anyone else have this issue? How can i fix it permanently?
Thank you

First of all thanks for this great rom. Since the begining of the year, with the new radio my wi-fi reception is very weak, if I'm farer than 4 o 5 metres from the router my wi-fi disconect. I've tried everything, different roms, kernels, clean installs from 44s strock without luck. It works fine with 4.4. My security protocol is WPA2-Personal.
Now I've done a clean install from stock 44s to today release following the instruction, everything is great except wi-fi.
Anyone having this issue? Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem as you. the only solution i found is to use 5GHz band.
On blisspop builds (cm12 based roms also) older than 01/01/2015 i was able to fix that problem by using this tool: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brilliapps.wifiandmorefixer&hl=es
but on the newer builds it does not work. i think it may be some firmware related thing or something cm12 changed.
I have a thread open for it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/wifi-extremely-slow-kernel-flash-t2978780
And please, could some experienced dev tell us whats going on?
Solved:
The issue seems to be solved for now.
What i did was resetting the phone to color OS stock Rom and then flashed back my actual lollipop ROM.

Thank you, this worked for me. I was only getting 1mb download speeds. Ran the app and now my one plus is getting 49mb download speeds. Now my one plus is perfect. Really really thank you.

Nikki i noticed your post and I seriously wish I could help, the only issue I had with wifi on my S3 was when I moved to a few kk builds. It would disconnect consistently. Other than that it wasn't an issue

I'd have to agree, an unlocked bootloader is invaluable. I still have my unlocked S3 just as a wifi only device

Issues with data (5.1)

Actually not fixed.
I'm running two ROMs on my device, one which is running Lollipop 5.0.2 (Screw'd) and another running 5.1, PureWhite.
Data works just fine on Screw'd, but barely on PureWhite. I encountered the same problem with another 5.1 ROM, Cataclysm's latest release.
Any help?
Issue wasn't fixed.
Help pls?

So far Cataclysm is the only 5.1 ROM that works for me with our lovely Sprint carrier. I tried the latest Terminus and Euphoria this morning and neither of them work. I tried adding the stock 5.1 OmaDmclient and UpdateSettings apks but it didnt work on either rom. It should that I was receiving a signal (ehrpd), but couldnt connect with 3G or LTE.
I really hate Sprint.

I'm not sure if he released a newer version of cataclysm (march 31 last I checked), but he provided a flashable zip fix for sprint users addressing the problem.
And I just checked, the April 4th beta should have fixed the problem.
Apr 02, 2015: Fixed Sprint issue.

It's not custom ROM related. I got this also on stock.
SOLVED!?
It seems that flashing bootloader and radio from 5.0.2 solved this issue. For me it works. Please, try and report.

Yes, it happened on both - LMY47D and LMY47I. Funny, changelog says "some SIM card fixes". Tried everything I've found on internet, but non of solutions worked for me, even in Safe mode. It's really annoying, at least for me. Back on 5.0.2 for now.
