I had been having trouble with the wifi on the infuse since I got it. I would be connected but have no surf. At first I thought it was the router but I ruled that out by trying 4 different brand and several security settings.
I then noticed what seemed to be the problem. When I'm on the phone and using my bluetooth headset I would lose connection on the wifi. It would still show me connected to the wifi but I wouldnt have surf. The second I turned the bluetooth headset off, what ever page I was trying to load would come up. I tried this serveral times so I know its not my imagination.
Anyone else seen this issue? Btw its a motorola H790
hello all !
I recently flashed shoredroid rom 4.4.2 latest build to my one x from at&t.
having a problem with multiple devices in my bluetooth.
whenever I turn BT on, it wants to auto connect to the last active device.
normally this would be fine except I routinely go back and forth between 2 and 3 different music streaming devices.
when BT is turned on, it gets stuck in a "connecting" loop and will never give up. I tried getting a 3rd party app to force it to stop connecting but it only works sometimes...
any ideas to disable auto connect entirely or to set a time-out function on auto connecting?
This is my second phone to have this problem. First was my old S4, now my S7 has the same problem. Basically, I want to watch YouTube or Netflix on my phone over Wi-Fi, and I want to listen to it on a bluetooth headset. But after a few minutes of watching/listening, my Wi-Fi connection always dies, I get that little exclamation point next to the Wi-Fi symbol in my notification panel, and the only way to fix it is to turn off Wi-Fi and turn it back on. It'll work for another couple minutes, then die again and need to be reset. Bluetooth stays connected the whole time and never drops. It's just the Wi-Fi that gets dropped. If I turn Bluetooth off and just listen via phone speaker or wired headphones, no problem, Wi-Fi can cruise all day.
The research I've done suggested that 2.4GHz might be causing a problem, but my network is 5GHz. Another suggestion was to switch the phone to a static IP address, that didn't help. I'd also read that Android has problems with IPv6, so I went to disable that in my router and discovered that it's never been on.
So, I found three solutions on my own, and none of them worked. Now it's time to reach out to the brain trust here. Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem? Vanilla S7, no root or ROMs. Thanks!

Have you tried the usual first step in troubleshooting, have you tried booting to recovery and wiping the cache partition?
You can also try flashing the stock firmware for your model number via Odin.

I've noticed that if my watch is connected to my phone via bluetooth, it will try to get location data from the phone rather than the watche's own GPS.
Under normal circumstances that's not a problem, however when I go hiking, I keep my phone in my backpack and it loses the GPS signal. That means the watch also loses location data and no longer properly tracks the hike (or any other activity where the phone might not have a GPS signal).
Is there a way to force the watch to use its own GPS even when bluetooth is on?
Turning off bluetooth on the watch fixes this of course, but then I no longer get notifications of text messages coming in while my phone is not easily accessible, which is kind of the point of the watch in the first place.
Maybe turning Off Location on phone ?
I am using my Note 20 with my Android Auto WiFi. I am having a unique issue / warning upon connecting to my head unit. When I connect to my head unit I get the warning from my phone, "Internet may not be available......." and I have 2 options, either Keep Wi-Fi connection or Disconnect.
Obviously if I disconnect then I am no longer connected to my cars head unit.
If I click keep connection that is where it gets weird. Under Advanced WiFi I DO have switch to mobile data turned on, I also DO have Mobile data on and my head unit DOES show up under Network exceptions.........
All the above SOUNDS like it would be the right thing.... HOWEVER, when I do that, I have NO DATA at all and obviously it does NOT work.
IF when the warning comes up i just IGNORE it or hit the HOME button and it goes away. WiFi stays connected, DATA stays connected and EVERYTHING works RIGHT!!!! However.... I am tired of having to do that every time I connect. I am sure there is something that I am missing, so I figured that I would ask the smart people. Thanks in advance.
Do you have tethering on?
Nope, no tethering on
