Rom is fast till now but I think it drains a lot more battery...

dzo can u please add smartassv2 to see if the drain is related to governor or something else, like wifi?

I had a lot of updates in latest atmel-test. Things look better in the last update.

Bugs till now: Battery drains way to fast compered to older versions ( tweaked conservative 300-800. No haptic feedack for on screen keys (atmel), key lights turn off at random ( have to play with the brightess in order to work again). And last I still don't have auto correct.. even after a clean install.

Speedtest.net results

Haven't had any problems with WiFi even before, but this update seems to work really well.

edit: run the same test with Galaxy Note and got

ping: 33ms

download: 12936kbps

so it's pretty safe to say that WiFi is working perfectly on u8800 now....at least speedwise...for me anyway. :)

That wifi speed is impressive, when aurora was first released we struggled to get 1.2mb. My normal speed on aurora v4 is around the 6mb mark, and with 5.0u4 it is 10.1mb.

Interesting idea, I've noticed that myself but didn't think too much of it.

I wonder if some core part of the OS stops, maybe something like it loses the ability to look up DNS?

When I open Chrome once the wifi goes grey, the error is that DNS failed.

It would be interesting if someone could run a packet sniffer once the phone reaches that state - don't try to disable wifi (we know that crashes the phone) but rather try to see what the phone is doing on the network.

So that could still be memory - some OS component is unloaded and then fails to get loaded back when needed?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I I've found a temporary fix for Wi-Fi loss of connection and consequent reboot. When you notice Wi-Fi has no internet connectivity, or goes grey, don't try to disable it. instead, go to Wi-Fi settings, click your network, select forget and then connect to it again. Connection will resume and there's no need to go through a reboot.

Note that even after restoring Internet connectivity, disabling wifi will still lead to a reboot, so this is only a temporary fix until Dzo figures this out once and for all.

OFFTOPIC QUESTION:

What drivers can I use on win xp sp3? I searched all over the forum but all of them aren't installing. Windows keep saying that's an unknown Android device and can't find any drivers even if I set it to manual search in driver folder.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nagato.fm:
For everyone facing wi-fi problems

This helped me when I was getting constant disconnects on 3.0 and I have almostly no issues now so it won't hurt if you try this too.

PLEASE DO A BACKUP OF THESE FILES OR A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANY CHANGES! because I simply have no idea what I've changed in these files — it was a very long time ago.

Put attached qcom_cfg.ini in /system/etc/firmware/wlan and set permissions to rw-r--r--

Then put the attached wpa_supplicant.conf to /system/etc/wifi with rw-r--r-- permissions and reboot

Also you can try WiFix Manager from G.Play (http://vk.cc/12q1tg)

In case another one helps, here's a wifi disabling crash with update 7.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
I'm fairly sure I've fixed the wifi problems now. What was happening was that the hardware crashes and the driver tries to reset it but doesn't really bring it back up properly. This crashes the kernel when the driver is unloaded because it doesn't clean up properly and still has references to the old instance.

I've done two things, I reduced the clock rate for the wifi sdio card interface and fixed the hardware reset by getting it to send a message to the supplicant to reload the driver.

The reduced clock speed shouldn't affect data rates too much but if it doesn't fix the hardware problems I'll put it back.

There may still be reboots but hopefully they won't be caused by the wifi driver.
