[Samsung Infuse 4G] Vijet:
I have had lot of issues with wifi connectivity on my Infuse. The connection to the wifi networks takes a long time and it keeps scanning. After it connects, if the phone is idle for 2 minutes, the connectivity goes off. The signal on the screen shows that wifi is connected but the webpage never loads. I need to toggle wifi to get it working.

I have tried a lot of things to get this issue fixed. I have set the wifi sleep policy to never. I tried using static IP. I installed a few apps from market that try to reconnect when wifi goes off. But none of these worked. I read that you can manually enter the MAC address of your device on ur router to get this issue resolved. But sadly, I stay at a university dorm and I have no control over the router settings. I can't play around with it. I also read that the problem may be due to hidden SSID and tried an app to get a work around but in vain. I'm totally clueless since this issue is seen only in my university wifi network but nowhere else.

It'd be very helpful if the seniors here could guide me into getting my beautiful Infuse connect seamlessly with my wifi network. I love my phone but I'm really sad that it has wifi issues which drive me crazy sometimes...

Thanks in advance.

PS - I had posted the same query in LinuxBozo's Hellraiser FAQ thread but I reposted here since I think more people would read it. I hope the admins don't mind.

Are you on a custom Tom?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
did you download that app

typically when you go into a rom with issues...ie you were having the issue stock..it isn't the rom

I have a feeling it is a weak signal from the university's wifi and combined with weak reception from the infuse

out of all of my devices the infuse has the weakest reception
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Vijet:
Which app are you talking about?

It's not the weak signal from the university. The routers are installed inside our rooms and the signal strength is either good/excellent. If I come to the hall, the signal strength goes down but at least inside the rooms it's good. But even then, I have this issue. It connects initially but suddenly it disconnects and I cant open a page. But the signal shows it's still connected. It's kinda weird. And I'm surprised no one else has faced this issue. 2 of us have the same phone here and both of us have the same issue.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
it is either the network or it is your phones :confused:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Sounds like a network issue to me, or possibly a side effect of the Android DHCP lease issue.

http://www.net.princeton.edu/android/android-stops-renewing-lease-keeps-using-IP-address-11236.html

More likely to occur with a large multi-access-point university network.

I don't know if Google has fixed the above issue yet.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
No root for the OTA yet, but downloading to 2.2.1 and rooting that will net you the same result as rooting the update. Are you just worried about downgrading? I think i have seen you ask this before.

Hey guys

I've the same problem as OP, I wiped everything, including cache. But my phone keeps getting stucked at my ROM's splash screen.

Marvlesz, could Clockworkmod partitioning be the problem? I downloaded the 250 MB version for the newest coredroid ROM for HTC HD2, maybe I should flash the 400 MB version instead?

[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
So earlier today my phone went from 90% to 15% charge instantly. I went to the Verizon store to see about a battery, obvious possible issue. They wanted to reset my phone to factory default but being rooted and on a custom rom, this would not work. Made some excuse about not loosing all my data, grabbed the phone and back to the office.

Imaged the system back to LG stock with root and removed CWM and all the sudden everything works fine. Its current at 65% charge. Before it would not charge over 15%.

Just thought I would share. Anyone else have an issue like this? It was completely random. Phone has been fine on revolt 1.0 for since it released, before that decrapped 1.0. odd that switching back made it work. The guy at verizon said that factory resets will often fix this issue...

H.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
I had something like that happen, but my phone was running hot as well. It happened following a spontaneous reboot, the battery never able to charge as fast as it was discharging . I didn't get as far as you to test stock again for other reasons. Here was my thread as I tried to figure it out. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1216468
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Well it is working fine now however I forgot to disable updating and it updated last night and I lost root...

Hey are you online?

I'm Revolting and Home-Less, how about you?
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
off and on. I am an IT guy so I am in and out of my office.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Welp it has happened again...

I am rooted on decrap 1.0 with CWM. Today it has run completely dead in under 5 hours with no usage. I am trying to charge it enough to get in so I can remove CWM before I take it to Verizon as the first thing they will want to do is factory reset it, only need 5 min so I can run revotoolkit.

This is the suck. While I like the phone I am also really starting to regret this phone.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Oddly enough it is charging normally. This battery sudden drain is weird.
[LG Revolution] Danzdroid:
I understand your frustration.....mine behaves that way occasionally too. Plus the spontaneous reboots are becoming more frequent as well :(

[I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Diddo last week. So Squigs, suggested a data wipe. So I did it and flashed revolt. Well setting up the LG/Verizon stuff was a no go, so I went homeless. I did my initial set up, and then pushed the Revolt. I have been running golden now. I just wonder if there is a way to run 2 roms at the same time, or a double rom. Because my battery life was 4 hours before I did a system wipe, this info was via my battery widget, but when I wiped everything, I have 15 hours when I start my day. I had calibrated my battery prior to all of this as well.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
That is the odd part about it, it works fine for a week or so then bam, the battery goes wonky... Then returns to normal, it seems after a battery pull.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
That's no good. Sorry to hear it happened again. Running Decrap 1.1 and I haven't had it happen again yet *knock on wood*
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I need to find what is eating up the resources. The phone says the android OS is eating over 64% of the battery and the phone is not being used.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Android OS on my phone generally uses close to 80 or 90% on my phone. With that I still got 12 hours yesterday on the stock battery before I was at 3% battery and plugged in. Try a data reset if you already haven't and if that doesn't work I would say you need either a new phone or battery.
[LG Revolution] MXFrodo195:
My phone has done this multiple times. Once in a while ill get a text. It'll vibrate for 2 minutes with the screen off. Then reboot with 40% less battery

Little Buddy Sr.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
So I ran it dead, charged to 100% and while still on charge ran a battery calibration app (as the app instructed) and I am back again getting 20+ hours on really light usage, 6 - 8 on moderate usage. This is weird. I have 2 upgrades on my other lines, I am really thinking about getting a bionic, reports are it gets exceptional battery life and then selling the revo.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Sigh... while not eating as bad it is still ripping through. I got 1 good day and now it is back. It has been off charger for just over and hour, no usage, and it is down 6% already. Frustrating.
[LG Revolution] gr33nT:
recently experienced the same issue. had a random 2-3 day spurt where the battery was dead by noon.....then all of a sudden, it returned to normal. never did figure out why.

recently received a new phone (but same battery)....installed Home-Less....currently experiencing much better battery life.

from previous posts, sounds like you bought thru verizon......if not, and you bought thru best buy.....i think they will order you a new battery pretty much no questions asked.
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
After I got my replacement phone about a week ago, I downgraded, rooted, ran homeless battery was doing ok....well, just yesterday my battery when to crap again...just an hour and down to 70....i really wish I could figure out wtf...
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
I have reverted to stock rom with root. I am using Titanium Backup to freeze the bloatware to see if it has something to do with the modified ROMs. Crossing my fingers.
[LG Revolution] gr33nT:
from my experience, the custom ROM actually helped my battery issues. my problems were encountered when i was un-rooted. what kills my battery the most is the fact that i work on the fringe of both 3g and 4g....causing the phone to constantly cycle between 3g/4g/1x. when i'm on straight 4g, i can last all day without a problem.

i'd be interested in hearing your results.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
No 4G in my area, I have found with the roms I tried so far they all, including the stock, gave the same battery life pretty much. I am looking more to see if the super drain is rom related or hardware.

Right now I have been off charger for 6 hours 57 minutes and I have exactly 80% battery left. Stock ROM rooted with some apps frozen. This is how I expect my phone to operate. It's the 2 hours off charge and there is 12% left with no usage that freaks me.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
my phone is having this problem too. it's running extremely hot and is not charging the battery. i have flashed back to revo_stock after wiping data and it's still bad... i've also tried removing clockworkmod and rebooting. still no luck yet.. also my 4G seems to have stopped working..!!
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
My battery does not heat up. The phone just starts eating battery at about 10x normal. It charges and usually snaps out of it after a day or 2.

Try pulling your battery. Let it sit and cool down then put your battery back in and let it charge with the phone off. See if that resets it. If not and now you are back to stock, you can take it to Verizon and they will factory reset it, which probably won't fix the issue and maybe they will replace it.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Yours still doing it even on stock?
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Not since I reverted no. So far running stock rooted with just frozen apps everything is fast and smooth and the battery life is decent with no anomalies.

Of course I just jinxed myself.

Quick, throw some salt, knock on wood, sacrifice a chicken, ect, ect. You'll be all good :P

"Home-Less and Iconic"
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Just an update. Since going back to rooted stock, and freezing unwanted apps the battery has been stellar. I am now perplexed. I will give it till Sunday then I will flip to one of the ROMs here and try it for a few weeks.
[LG Revolution] adrenaline_rush:
I hate the battery/charging problems. This phone is also the slowest charging phone ive ever had. And only with the cable and charger the phone came with will it decently charge. Pretty much every other charger/cable will take like 24 hours to charge
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
How long have you had it?
[LG Revolution] adrenaline_rush:
Since July 5th. I can't really get rid of this phone until December. If i switch phones, Wirefly will send me a nice little $300 charge to my credit card. It's part of the agreement when you order from them, you have to keep the phone for 181 days. Oh well, live and learn. Cheaper price will usually have it's catch somewhere
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Well there is some other kind off problem with the slow charge. I have an old charger from my palm pre that i use at work if i forget to charge over night that will charge in less than 2 hours, if i plug into the laptop it takes about 3 and my standard charger is under 2 hours. I use a different cable with all 3 also.
[LG Revolution] adrenaline_rush:
Weird. I guess something is wrong either in my battery or in the phone power control chip thing. I would say i get about 1% every 2 minutes vs the 1% in 1 minute I would get on my thunderbolt

Wow.. you went through alot for that Tmobile backups app. but i have it posted in my TouchMIUIwiz ROM thread . Heres the link Tmobile Backup

And heres how you get into download mode. Just remove your battery, open odin and load the pit into the pit slot and the tar into pda, then plug your phone in without the battery. Now this part is a bit awkward but it works 100% , while holding the vol down and trackpad put the battery in. you must put it in while holding that button combo and you will get into download mode

and BTW it was running so fast on stock cause the lagfix was enabled (thats what that voice was doing)

I was trying to install a new kernel so I could overclock, and I could not get it into recovery mode. I tried the normal, turn off+hold volume down key+turn on, method. I also used the boot into recovery mode option from CWM (Acer Recovery)

I thought it may have something to do with my other software issues causing issue, so I did a master reset. It got everything back to normal, reloaded my info and backed up info, and installed rootcheck (which confirmed root and busybox) and superuser, and CWM, and have the kernel on my sd card. I tried booting into recovery mode again and it wont work

Which kernal are you trying to install? Are you installing via cwm? What version are you running? Are you holding vol-key until after the Acer logo shows up and then keeping the vol rocker held until you see "booting recovery..."?

[Acer Iconia A500] timmyDean:
Why are you trying to get into recovery? What is it you are actually trying to do? If you are stock, then getting into recovery has little value, so it would help if we know what you're actually trying to do?

I am trying to install Taboonay. The way I see it from peoples post is that with a stock 3.2 the only way to install Taboonay is to be able to go into recovery. Do you have a better solution? Or anyone? There is alot of information out there. It's hard to sort through it sometime.
