[Nexus 7 General] kikikaka:
my problem is the wifi connection cannot stay connected during standby although I set always "keep wifi on during sleep" .

It is not actually disconnected from the router, but the data connection is broken. When I wake up the N7, I can see the grey wifi icon connected, but no data connection (not the blue icon). Then it change to blue in 1~2 second.

If I ping the N7 IP from the computer, the ping timeout after a short period when the N7 goes to standby.

This lead to other problem, the google services has problem due to the connection problem. They always wake up and try to connect again and again (as shown by the BetterBattery Stats). The battery drains much quickly than before... This problem happens to me since 4.2. At 4.1.2, the standby battery is quite good, ~0.2%/hr... but now in 4.2, it is > 2%/hr

I found a solution: It is to disable the "Wi-Fi optimization". Now the standby power consumption is about 0.3-0.5%/hr. Not as good as before, but much improved.
[Nexus 7 General] Aydthird:
Fix for some

Having the same issue I have been doing lots of research in the matter, seems that the unit stays connected but the bars turn gray instead of blue and no longer actually sends you data.

Coming across multiple "solutions" one that did work for me is designating an IP address on the router itselft for the nexus, tried it a week or so ago and its been working flawlessly!!!!

Well sort of... the dilemma I did run into is that at my home we have two nexus 7 (one for my niece) gave them both an IP on the router but that one two days ago had the issue happen again which was a total shocker to me since mine works perfect...

So in regards to the 5ghz settings which everyone says doesn't work on the nexus 7, before I had my router with the same name for either 2.4 or 5. I changed that when my niece's Nexus stopped working, now all my devices (including both nexus) connect to the 5GHZ and so far it's been glitch free.

Other recommendations have been to lower the security settings or just remove the password all together... Either way... hope this helps

PS: I also have a linksys router model EA3500
[Nexus 7 General] megamoz:
Could you please give some more details about router configuration, wireless mode, channel bandwidth, or control channel etc.? From time to time I update firmware of my router (ASUS dsl-n55u) and reset to factory defaults. While doing so I've noticed in wifi AP list of my Nexus 7, 5ghz ssid appears.
[Nexus 7 General] Aydthird:
So I seems I may have made a fool of my self in regards to 5Ghz, I've done the opposite (Stoner...) however, I did still run into the same issues with both nexus. What I just thought of the other day is to not only assign an IP address on the router for both units, but make sure the units are configured to always use that IP as well... So far so good (crossing my fingers)
[Nexus 7 General] jdeocares:
I disabled the WMM in my TP-Link modem router, too, and the wifi issues stoped, iTs seems to be a problem with that type of encryption.Anyway aI was able to save the problem.
[Nexus 7 General] tuckersdroid:
As previously recommended, try changing the channel on your router. Worked like a charm.
[Nexus 7 General] vihang.idnani:
Finally a cure!!!

ok since i got the nexus 7 2012, it had issues with wifi like random dropouts, not being able to download apps and surf internet even when wifi signal was full!

initially it was on 4.2, after update to 4.3 the issues resolved themselves. After the Kitkat 4.4 update the issues reared their ugly head again and i was distraught!!! :eek:

I have been surfing these forums and many other throughout google to resolve this issue. I tried setting time manually, turning off NFC, GPS, turning wifi optimization ON/OFF but nothing worked and was unsuccessful since untill now. My all other devices worked well, my brother's chinese android, my gateway laptop and my friends had super fast wifi connection at my home... "all but me" i kept saying to myself (i previously owned a samsung galaxy y which had the same issue)...

I knew the router was the culprit and had to be set! ok so i tweeked the following settings:

Set my router channel to one not crowded (6 in my case)

Set Beconing to a high number : 800 (it was 100)

Set DTIM to 1 (it was hundred!!!)

BANG!! BANG!! BANG!!

My wifi on the nexus has never dropped since and even more, my galaxy y started running wifi like wildfire!!

I hope my post helps other people with similar problems. Let me know if these things work for any of you out there with unfortunate wifi problems...

If your Wifi does not stable

even after the above setting

, try this alternate work-around :

1. Download PingMeter from play store,

2. Start Pingmeter when you turn ON your wifi

3. Type in www.google.com (or any other popular site should do i think) and Press PING

4. Silent the pinging to avoid the annoying BEEPS

5. In setting of Pingmeter, set packet size to 8 (to minimize data loss)

6. Make sure the app has started pinging

7. Press HOME to minimize the app

8. SURF AWAY!! :good::D

The above work-around served me through desperate times when my wifi wouldn't work normally.

Another work-around is to start any torrent and set download speed limit to 1kBps

Again this is not a solution for those having antenna trouble with the device (hardware issue)

CHEERIO!! :D

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
OK, i searched and found some threads on the matter but that was for the Prime. also found some other issues with the unlocker dealing with an un-recognized serial number or no data connection.

anyway, a little about my tablet. purchased it from a friend, brand new, sealed in box. serial numbers match (between box and device) i rooted right away since i was on the .17 firmware, did the OTA root keeper thing. the OTA was pushed to my device that same day, it updated just fine. a couple days later the .30 update was pushed to my device...took that as well just fine. so i was running stock .30 firmware but was rooted. I tried the unlock tool in that state, and got the message below. so i started reading and saw a reset could fix it...so i did that.....no dice.

did a "cold reboot" (volume down and power until the message pops up and just let it time out for the 10 seconds to clear caches and what-not.)

tried again....Nothing.

i have tried it while tethered to my Nexus, and connected to my home wi-fi with no luck.

what is my next step? should i downgrade to .17 and give it another go? is this possible without a computer (at work and would like to do it today)

is this just an ASUS server issue and just "bad timing" to unlock...or does this go deeper than that?

thanks for all your help....pulling out my hair trying to figure this out.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikaole:
its a problem with your serial not been in the asus database. Call Asus and tell them that update is not working, don´t tell them that you want to unlock.

They will put your serial in their database. Then try unlock again.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Except, he got an OTA already.

I would recommend downgrading to .17 since some people have had success with that.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
that was my thoughts....i though the serial number issues also affected the OTA's being pushed.

can downgrading be one on the tablet alone?

i though i read on the TF prime site that you can download the built, extract the .zip file from the .zip you download from asus, plop it on the root of an sd card (internal storage or external SD? i have both available) then turn off, volume down + power and hit volume down, then volume up and it will install that....is this correct?

or do i need to do it though ADB?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Yeah, I think that's how it works. When I downgraded to .17 to root way back when, I used Wolf's method, which used ADB. I think either way will work fine.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
OK, can anyone confirm or post a link or something to the exact method of an "on the device" downgrade method.

the only things i am finding online are Wolf method which involves ADB.

can i simply put the .zip or blob (which one?) on the root of internal memory.

turn off tablet

hold volume down +power

hit volume down

then volume up

and it will install the .17 system?

I am working late tonight with no access to my home computer for the next couple of days probably :(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
ok, i actually got of work early and was able to downgrade via ADB. i am on stock .17 firmware right now doing a factory reset and then i will be giving it a go one more time.

edit: Annnnd....it didnt work >)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
Damn. The worst part is that Asus refuses to help people in your situation. All I can suggest now (hopefully someone can suggest something better), is to try everyday, at least once. Some people get it to work like that.

I really wish I could help more. The most trouble I had with unlocking was signing into my Google account (I have 2-step authentication). I was on .30 rooted, and it worked perfectly. I know that's not what you want to hear. I just have no idea why it would work fine for some people and not work for others. The serial number issue was bad enough, but now, people with working serials can't use the unlocker? That's preposterous, and Asus needs to fix it.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
Well....what can ya do. I am going to call Asus tomorrow and see if they can verify my SN is in the database.

I'd I can unlock...great!

If I cant , well I will still enjoy my rooted tf300 and wait patiently for my JB OTA.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
I hope you get it sorted out. Knowing Asus, though, even if they don't help you, the official update should be ready shortly. Possibly before there's a stable CM10 available.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
I hope you are right....I dont expect it to be before a stable CM10 is released....but i do have high hopes to see it before the end of August.

FWIW, i am back on stock .30 rooted sofware. back at square 1 :(

but i will be trying the unlock tool every day until JB arrives or it works...lol

also contacted ASUS (e-mail) about the issue, they told me to factory reset and see if that worked.....hope they can help me out even more when replying to my reply.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saintom:
And don't say your serial is not in the database, ;) cuz the only way to know that is

when trying to unlock!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
lol

I'll give them some BS about a neighbor having the same issue and having them enter it into thier database fixed it.....that should work.

the announcement of an almost complete (BT and camera dont matter to me) AOKP JB build has me making this call in about an hour. I want this done SOOOO bad now :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
OK, so i called them with some BS about not getting updates and asked them to put my number in their "system"

the guy said that my SN was in there now.

still no dice on the unlocker app.

how long does it take to become "activated" in their system. should i be waiting a day before expecting results?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
still nothing today...anyone else get this message and have it resolved?

i read a thread where a bunch of people are getting the same error (over on the TF Prime forums) it just wasn't working for some reason...then one day, boom, it started working again.

so maybe it is something on ASUS' end and they either shut it down or it just isn't working right now.

anyone successfully unlock their device in the last week?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsaman:
I had this exact issue and resolved it by doing a 'factory reset' on it, then reinstalling the tool. At the time, I was stuck on FW 17 and wasn't getting updates from Asus, so unlocking and flashing a different ROM was the way to go in order to keep ROOT.

Haven't looked back since (currently on AOKP's JB build and loving it).
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
I hate you for being able to do it so easy...lol

i have unrooted, i have factory reset a couple times, i have downgraded to .17 and factory reset then...nothing :(

I WAS getting OTA's though. so i guess i am just going to have to wait for official JB...i would love to be running AOKP JB on my 2 main devices.

I'm trying to make good photo for 2 days, but it looks like phone has no autofocus at all, most of images are not sharp!

am I doing something wrong?
[HTC One V] hlavicka82:
Yes it does have autofocus:

Camera with HTC ImageSense™

5 megapixel camera with auto focus, smart LED flash, and BSI sensor (for better low-light captures)

F2.0 aperture and 28mm lens

720p HD video recording

Dedicated imaging chip

Capture a photo in the midst of recording HD video

Continuous shooting mode captures multiple snapshots
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Be Still For At Least A Second!!

It takes at least 1-2 seconds to focus on a thing. Be Still! :)
[HTC One V] unster:
ok, but do you press screen or the photo button?

when i click photo button it seems like it makes photo instantly without any focusing
[HTC One V] Paresh Kalinani:
Screen and the photo button both...

There is Autofocus in One V...

When you take picture, you'll yourself come to know that it is trying to focus on a particular object.

If this doesn't happen, on the screen gently tap on the object. It will show some green borders around the are you touched and it will focus. After that, press the camera button. :) :good:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] macdroid01:
is it possible to have shortcuts with the Pattern unlock lock screen?

I would like to have shortcurts to the Camera and Dialer while still have security provided with a Pattern unlock.

Is this possible with a completely stock (no rooting no anything) S III on Verizon?

Or do I need to install one of those lock screen apps? I'd prefer to remain completely stock for now if possible..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jmorton10:
If you had shortcuts of any kind, that would kill the security.........
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mysylence:
I wish Google would implement their Touch Gesture Actions From A Device’s Lock Screen idea asap... providing shortcut functionality without sacrificing security would be better than those 3rd party lock screens.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mrRobinson:
Not sure about defining shortcuts. but i used pattern lock and if I hold finger on screen, rotate to landscape, then swipe pattern, it launches camera.

if i have a missed call or text there is a circle on the lock screen with the qty and if i swipe off that circle then enter pattern it takes me right to that app (missed calls or messaging).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] macdroid01:
I don't care about security for the camera or dialer.

I know there is the camera motion shortcut thing but I like the clickable widget better. I want to have the capability to define widgets on the lock screen like you can when you don't have any security. But I want it with the pattern unlock. I guess this is not available out of the box? And needs a special app?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] akoli:
I would like the same thing... you can get it on the standard swipe to unlock so why not the pattern lock... I have tried various lockscreens but their not without their flaw...

Widget locker.. has lots of customisation and you can add custom sliders and widgets but... its buggy prone to crashing and takes a fair bit of tweaking to be secure (ie if you dont select correct setting you can unlock with just the home key) , sometimes have to unlock twice and it always request superuser access even when the phone is in standy ... so drains battery more than it should.

Go Locker - didnt like this at all just didnt seem secure... first version could be bypassed easily... plent of themes though if security is not a priority.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HemRoyd:
I am stock and not rooted. I was originally on the Takju build straight from the Play Store. I was able to update to Jellybean 4.1.1 OTA by doing the clear data AND force stop on the framework app (just happened to work out that way).

Unfortunately, I may be selling my phone and need to clear my user data before handing it over. I am inclined to do a hard reset, however I am worried that I may not have access to the Jellybean update again after the phone is returned to the default configuration. I thought I saw something about limited availability of the update via WiFi until July 12th or something?

doing a factory reset just clears all data and wipes the internal storage... it does not affect the rom that you are on.

Ok people, listen up.

Usually I and the other Moderators are tolerable to comments posted in the threads. Especially the Q&A and GeneralThread.

The Dev Thread, is for .... ahem... DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES ONLY. Read it again.

There is no need to post things that should be in the Q&A forum, or the General Forum. Remember this, as I will delete it. You know the rules, you read the rules.... so... understand the rules. If in doubt, post it in the Q&A forum.

But more importantly, is lately, the use of abusive language, arguments and flaming, has gotten out of control. Threads get clogged with useless garbage, like everybody is in an "e-penis" contest with everybody else. In which case, you all lose.

It ends now.

As of today, the 19th July 2012, if I have to come and delete any more abusive, flaming, profanity laced comments, and this means Users, Dev's and Cooks alike, I will assess infraction points and recommend ban's. No questions asked. And no appeal. Enough is enough. If a user posts a profanity laced post, that's it. And the same goes for Dev's and Cooks., If it's a "retaliatory" post, that's it also.

You have a "Report Post". Learn how to use it.

You people are adults, or close to it. It's not "facebook" or any internet chat, IM, ICQ, or any other device. There are people here, the majority, who want to make their device better, and generally are good people. And they don't want to see that type of garbage.

If you have a beef with somebody, use PM. Not the forum. Or just report the post.

Hi all,

I recently updated my 'unrooted' HTC Desire S from HTC Sense 2.3 to Sense 3.0. Ever since then the phone has been acting up and become slower in general. Is there any way to downgrade the phone back to Sense 2.3 without rooting as I am really skeptical about it, and please nobody say "oh it's fine it's safe" because nothing anyone, or anything, can say to persuade me. (No disrespect)

I have been to countless shopfronts that might have the slightest thing to do with mobile phones and on many occasions I have gotten the answer people have successfully done this in the past. I, and many other people as I have seen from other forums really want to downgrade without rooting.

If anyone can give me an answer, any help, or even a point in the right direction that would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance
