[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
So I have a Xoom FE, obviously, and when I'm browsing the internet in the stock browser, browsing the market, watching netflix, anything that requires internet in general is incredibly slow. Like almost unusable.

I know my internet is fast enough because both of my computers and other devices (Xbox, Droid, Sony Blu-Ray) fly on my network. We use a good Netgear router that's a full a/b/g/n dual band device running on 2.4 and 5Ghz.

The browser is usually painfully slow no matter what, and any of the apps that have anything to do with video are just pathetic. No videos load quickly, mainly in the YouTube app or when browsing to a video on the web, IGN for an example. Once they load enough they rarely keep playing for very long before stopping to buffer, and that's very noticeable in Netflix especially.

I've done Google searches and tried nearly everything that's been suggested, but most of that stuff is for the original Xoom. Not many seem to have gone for the FE. If anyone has any ideas on what I can try I'm open to ideas, even including the router settings. Like I said my internet speed is fine, I can stream 4k YouTube clips without buffering on my PCs.

Gosh over 100 views and no suggestions! Not even 1? Man...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalr0gue:
Does this happen on other wireless networks? Or only on your own?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luda305:
I have the family edition and I have great internet speed. I have a pc, laptop, xbox 360, evo 3d, Hp touchpad, and the xoom FE all on the same router and still the xooms internet is fast. So it might be a router problem for you
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalr0gue:
That's what I was trying to isolate.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
I haven't really used it on another router for any significant length of time. Unfortunately that means I can't isolate that as a problem either. In a couple weeks I'll be staying at a house with wifi when I go skiing, I'll definitely be paying attention to the speed there.

Its definitely the worst with video, whether it be flash or the youtube app itself the video just loads incredibly slow. Flash videos are nearly unwatchable if not because of the speed because of the glitching. Something I saw hadn't been fixed in the Xoom 2 when I read Engadget's review.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luda305:
I watch videos just fine. YouTube, netflix all that good ish with no problem
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nswenson:
Run Speedtest. If it's slow compared to your laptop, then try changing the wifi router protocol. If it's using WEP, try changing to WPA. I had this issue with my nook color and changing to WPA fixed internet speed issues.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
Well I ran a speed test on all the devices I have. My laptop, Droid Charge and my desktop (which is hardwired) all reached just about 5mbps. That isn't bad, my AT&T DSL is supposed to peak at 6. This stupid thing hit under .5mbps, notice that POINT. That's less than half 1mbps. Thinking it might just be the browser I downloaded the app (which doesn't have a honeycomb version apparently), it fared slightly better with about 1.5mbps. Both tests had a ping of about 400ms, while all other devices were less than 20ms.

The router is already set to WPA, so I'm not sure what else to try. I'm thinking about trying the push button connect on the router to see if it helps.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jediman:
Got netgear?

Just got fed up with mine after 2 years.

Granted it was draft n, and dropped the ssid broadcast daily, but even wired it slowed to a crawl most likely due to spi (stateful packet inspection). Try without it on if you got it.

Or buy a cisco router (they bought linksys). All my phone, tablet and pc related connection issues stopped when I replaced mine.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laredo7mm:
Try to find a free WiFi hotspot near you and go there to test it. There has to be some where near you that has free WiFi.

Our local McDonalds in my podunk town of 5000 has free WiFi.

It is worth a try.

did you ever find a solution to your problem? I'm experiencing slow download; choppy flashplayer, youtube is pretty much useless. i'm on cable with wi-fi modem. i'm beginning to think its the crappy modem provided by the cable company. but my desk top and net book are doing fine. anywho, any input would be greatly apreciated

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
I never did find a solution. The symptoms you listed there are exactly what I'm living with. I haven't the slightest idea what might be causing it. The router appears to make no difference as I use it everywhere I go and the symptoms never go away for me. It's still useable, but slow. The other thing that bugs me is the browser's lovely habit of just force closing whenever it feels like it. Very annoying. I'm holding out hoping the ICS update can bring some fixes for us.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogueJD:
What ROM are you using? (Stock, Rooted? EOS ROM?) What type of router do you have?

Details can help you. 5 Mbps is horrible. If you're sharing that bandwidth with other active nodes, then that's even worse.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
I have a Netgear WNDR3700 router. This one here. I'm on the stock rom, un-rooted. There's plenty of devices in my house sharing the network for sure, but only about 3 at a time are actively using the internet. Most of the time less than that. 6Mb DSL is the fastest thing we can get where we live (there's no cable in the middle of nowhere).

As I said before, even with many devices using the internet at the same time, my Android phone and all my other devices EXCEPT my Xoom speed test at near 5Mbps. The tablet is lucky to hit 1.5Mbps. I just don't get it. I haven't noticed the slowdown on any other routers, but honestly I don't use it much for the web outside of the house, just mainly reading and games.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thazz:
I use a number of testing devices, and the Motorola Xoom Family Edition is by far the quirkiest--there must have been severe quality control issues at Motorola with that tablet.

I ran into the incredibly slow Internet speeds. Oddly enough, restarting the device fixed THAT Family Edition problem... for now.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homestar1217:
I really don't know what it is about this tablet, it just seems to run very slow. Even when I tethered it to my 4G LTE phone (I get about 15-20mbps where I am) it was slow to pull up videos and pages (pages loaded quickly once they started). I think it needs some optimization for sure. I have a feeling they swapped in some new hardware and didn't touch the software from the original Xoom and that's where our problems are coming from.

Hopefully they actually try with ICS, though my hopes aren't high that we'll even get it this quarter, or if we do that it will be any better.

What version is this cause it hadn't been updated for a while, nowadays I use tubemate, it's better cause it gives you the option to download mp3 or video, just google it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] famewolf:
tubemate is fine if you don't mind misleading ads that 1) tell you that you have just won a free ipad and to click here 2) tell you 1 Virus Found. Click here to clean your phone or 3) display ads for porn. There is a free flv2mp3 service on the web that lets you download the mp3 if thats what you need.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jalexishg:
Dude that would be awesome, I hope someone take the time to help/support this project .
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
downloading now I will be reporting back
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ghostzyden:
awesome, downloading now. I'll let you know how it works for me. Hopefully you and other devs will keep working on this:)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Mish.Mash:
Thanks for trying it & reporting on the rom, but really am not a developer. I try to learn as much as possible & someday will cook my own roms! :eek:
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
Sounds pretty cool -- thanks for posting this up. u have any screenshots?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] shinigami13:
thank you!!!! I figured this project was lost. I hope as well that either bubby finishes up what he says he was or some other devs come along and whip this into shape.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ghostzyden:
Looking good so far, loving it:)

Edit: issues I've found. MMS may be broken, slight lag in performance (overclock seems to fix this), WiFi and camera are broken as stated in the op. This isn't a complaint, I like this Rom. Just info for people that are considering flashing this but can't live with a few small issues lol ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] w8setter:
You are the s@#* I have been waiting to try this out for a while!!!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kaos1211:
Can we know what that small edit to build.prop was?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Mish.Mash:
It was to change wi-fi scan intervals to 30 mins from 15 to allow better battery life. this was recommended from BuellDogg. :eek:
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Thank you Sir for hunting this ROM down and bringing it to the Light. :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] pewipo123:
oh hell yea!.... wifi and cam a no go huh?... dont worry, it shouldnt be that way for long!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kaos1211:
So far so good really cool and responsive
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mobile_sensei:
I am the one who wrote the review for MyDroidWorld, & I was under the impression that bubby, qbking77, & ACS didn't want this released until everything was fixed. Just curious if you got permission from those guys to post this?

On another note, if this is bubby's ROM, then it is VERY nice work. It works rather well, especially for a Port from another device.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
I just fell in love with my nexus s 4g again. This is nice no lag etc I'm very surprised and Pete's kernel was a good choice.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] CHINESKATO:
Is there anything I can do to make the WiFi work

?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Mish.Mash:
No, I ask no permission because: I myself downloaded these files from open, unsecured sites, folders, & servers on the internet, then with help from a developer, I put this together, repackaged as a complete rom to run on nexus s 4g. Android is open source, free for everyone to use as they wish. + I said IF this parts of Bubby's rom then credit to him, & I say 1st in op that this is kang rom. I didnt try to make credit for myself that I made the rom, & told how I found & put together. No one asks cyanogen team to make cm kangs, they just use them because the source is open. Open to public for anyone to use. Bubby had said for months "will post tomorrow" "couple days" "1st of week" etc., then just abandoned the project. They answer NO questions here in Q&A thread, demo video on youtube, or twitter if this rom would still be worked on or not, & he forgot about it. Most of you guys might not have read here on xda or on twitter the dramas that Bubby is facing from the tmobile galaxy s II forums, but in short summary, those guys support him to make roms for their phones, they bought him the phone & a brand new laptop to do work, & he has not, & will not answer the people who spent the large amounts of money for him to have the stuff. & now they have an atty. to sue him & ask police to charge him for wire fraud. I am not telling this to talk bad about him, only to explain that he has many things on his plate much more severe & pressuring than this SENSE rom, so he forgot about it & us guys who wanted it bad, & would not answer about finishing thie project. He also tweets every few minutes about building CM rom for yet another phone, & he is not part of the acs team any longer, & on twitter he says he is teamed up & working with other guys on new CM for other phones. Never mentions Nexus Sense rom. So I found the stuff & put together for myself & share with everyone here who waited many months for this.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Probably not, unless you have dev skills with WIP ROM ports.

On another note I hope you can. :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Mish.Mash:
lol, only if you are better developer than Bubby, or BuellDogg, which I doubt big time, because BuellDogg is GREAT developer on other forums (he hate xda :D).

But, I hope someone who is a good developer & rom cooker can fix for us.

Not being rude about you not being a better dev, just I know how good BD is & if you were good developer, you would not ask here if you could do something to fix. :eek:
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:


Actually I was looking at the specific wifi chip in our phone and the desire HD and they are indeed the same exact chip. So tonight when I get home from work im going to try a few things including rebasing the rom with the kernel from the op rom. IF i could get kernel source this would be WAY easier. Its like trying to solve a puzzle but half of its covered up. Can anyone try to contact the op and see if he managed to find kernel source from this? Also thanks for the link to the nexus s port. If they have wifi working then i might have this fixed by tonight.

I found a port of this to the Nexus S. I flashed it to see what was working and surprisingly the WiFi loaded right up. i have been trying to pull the files from it and putting them in this rom with no luck. Maybe someone else will have better luck them me.

Click here to download the Nexus S Rom with working WiFi

This is a link to androidcentral that talks about the rom i posted nexussense-0-3-wip

Hopefully someone will be able to find the files needed for us to get WiFi working on this. Then we can move on to the Camera. :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
^ Hey, I wrote that haha.

The original nexus sense dev, apreichner, has disappeared though. Id be willing to bet he could patch the wifi and such up no problems
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Yeah i did that earlier just to check. So now im gonna see if i can either pull the gsm bits out of that rom and insert our stuff. Or see if i can find which files were the culprit to begin with and just pull them over into our rom. I still really want kernel source lol.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] redwiz666:
I did notice in the other Rom the drivers for the WiFi where different sizes but it did no luck pulling them over to this Rom still had the same issues
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Christ this is hard without source or knowing what any of the devs have done previously. Things are all kinds of cluttered and dirty in both the Nexus s 4G port and the Nexus S GSM -_-. Not looking good, but still trying.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I don't think you need the kernel. I think the only things they edited were in intramfs or ramdisk like init.rc, etc. You may be able to just copy wifi folder in etc from nsgsm and wpa libs and bins.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
playing with things like that is alot easier when you have the kernel source anyway lol. also ive tried a million different ways of swapping over files. see whats working and whats not, and staring at miles of logcats lol.

---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 AM ----------

Lol it would even seem that in the logcat when i look at the wifi connect event it says CONNECTED and actually associates itself with the access point but then just continues to go LOL WHERES THE DHCPHANDLER LOL WHY YOU NO DHCP -_-

http://pastebin.com/TGEEPqqf
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ghostzyden:
Lol that got a laugh outta me. Anyways, same here. Keeps searching for an IP address even after replacing all wifi files that I know of. I hope somebody's smarter than me lol ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Wait. I remember what kernel he used. He told me awhile back (before this was released) that he uses peter alfonsos kernel.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Extract the boot.img (if you need me to I can send the unpacked one to you). And copy the intramfs or ramdisk (I think they're one in the same) from the sense kernel to other kernels and keep trying them til they work. You'll have to repack though. I am 95% sure that he (bubby) didn't change anything in the kernel source, but changed the ramdisk (I know he changed the init.rc and init.herring.rc ). I think I may have found the problem though. In init.herring.rc all the wifi related services are disabled. (Wpasupplicant, dhcpd, etc.)

If you need help, gtalk me at xboxlover360@gmail.com

I don't have a nexus s 4g but I've been following the thread.

Also, if you have any idea how to get this working on the epic 4g (slider), please let me know.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Me and you seem to be finding things out at the same time lol. Today when I get home from work I had planned on playing with herring and init. Ill add you on gtalk later on tonight and grab that unpacked boot.img. Im tired of this problem kicking my ass lol. I get home at around 5:30 EST. Appreciate the help.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
We should compare the init.rc and init.herring.rc to the galaxy sense's init.rc and init.aries. Those are here: https://github.com/Chiledog/android_device_samsung_galaxys/tree/galaxysense

I'll upload the nexus sense 4g intramfs too.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:


Cant wait. Ill check it out when i get home.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
To anyone that cares, the intramfs here:

https://github.com/NexusSense4G/NexusSense4G-Intramfs/downloads
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Well i Grabbed it and opened init.herring.rc and init.rc and youre correct that those say disabled. But when compared to 2 other phones init.herring.rc and init.rc they both read the same way.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bdawg31:
It isn't a module related problem concerning the wifi. It is dhcpd bin or bootp binary related in my opinion.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
well the dhcpcd in the /system/bin is the same size in this rom as the gsm nexus s one. I dont think theres any change. Also, bootp binary?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ghostzyden:
Yeah, its not that I don't think. I swapped it. Maybe its something to do with file location? Like its looking in the wrong file for wpa or dhcpd? Just a thought, I'm pretty new to this though lol

http://blog.linuxconsulting.ro/2010/04/porting-wifi-drivers-to-android.html
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Extract the nsgsms sense builds boot.img using dsixda and then compare the init files and herring using diffmerge and maybe there's something there. If not, try adding the firmware and vendor/firmware files from galaxysense or nsgsmsense and also wpa and wpa supplicant files from lib and bin and wifi and dhcpd from etc.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] swamp goblin:
I've tried adding the vendor and firmware files, and just about every other wifi file, and nothing seems to work. same with my mytouch port. I used the same boot.img as a base, so it would more likely be something to do with the ramdisk?

Its weird tho, comparing them there seems to be no difference with the wifi related stuff between this boot.img and the gsm nexus s
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Still working on it. Im not making much headway though....this is one RIDICULOUSLY obscure bug.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] swamp goblin:
i worked on it on my mytouch port for almost a week.. nothing.

this rom is strange, all the wifi drivers are in the correct spot, boot.img has same wifi properties and everything, exactly the same as the nexussense on gsm nexus, yet wifi still throws errors.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HaiKaiDo:

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Oh maybe its framework. Copy their framework folder (which will break cdma, but you'll fix it later) and also copy all the wpa bins and libs and dhcpd etc files and firmwares and anything alse related to wifi.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] ghostzyden:
I copied all framework and it didn't boot for me, I traded the wifi XML in framework with all wifi files and it just says error for wifi. From the GSM port, not galaxy sense. I'll try again later with both to be sure. Thanks for the help ;)
