[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aly19:
I am hoping this a software problem. My Nexus 10 gets great download speeds using the speed test. net app while my Nexus 4gets horrible download speeds, my brother's GS3 gets good download speeds as well.

Not sure if I should try getting a replacement one or not because I have no other issues with the phone besides the horrible wifi performance.

Yeah same here I'm hoping its a software issue and not hardware.

i m using at&t sim card with data service , my outdoor download speed is super slow, dont know why?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranphi:
FWIW I tried flashing a custom ROM to my nexus 4 tonight and it didn't make a bit of difference with the slow Wi-Fi download speeds. They're still dreadfully slow.

The ROM I flashed was the MoDaCo ROM. Might try another one that's not so similar to stock to see if there's any difference that way...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aly19:
I have tried multiple ROMS and different kernels and none have made a difference for me at all.

I am also suffering from this problem, in particular when downloading over wifi (I am in the UK on Sky Broadband) from Google Play.

Weird... And annoying! I'll try changing my wifi connection to 2.4GHz only when I get home, to see if it makes a difference...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ladrero:
Same problem here. My download speed over Wifi is very slow (usually 500KB/s with a 65MB connection...). I got this results on Google Play.

Okay, this is bizarre... My download speeds over WiFi at work today are nice and fast! It's finally downloading at speeds I would expect to get while on WiFi. Hmmm...and this is after moving to a custom ROM just last night, although my WiFi download speeds at home did NOT get any better after flashing this ROM.

Guess I'll have to try downloading again when I get home from work today to see if anything's changed since last night.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megapixle:
Just want to chime in that I'm having speed issues on WiFi as well. On my home network both my iPad & SGS2 get 25 down, Nexus 4 only manages about 4 down.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
Just ran Speed Test on my N4 and got a lousy 2MB d/l but reasonable 8MB u/l. My laptop reported a much higher d/l speed. I disconnected from the WLAN and reconnected and now it's working fast again (35MB d/l).

Looks like this is a bug alright.

Here in Canada me and my brother both activated LTE on our phones (Mine is coming in on Monday) but anyways the speed difference is crazy.

T-Mobile is launching Frequency 4 LTE I think its called that next year so hang in there. In Canada here LTE works using that LTE trick and the speeds are awesome!!!!!

This is a ridiculous issue, I'm about to return this phone over it. Any solutions yet?

---------- Post added at 11:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 PM ----------

Okay, after tearing apart my wifi network I've found the cause of my problems--I have a wireless range extender in my house and when my N4 connects through that I get slow download speeds. When I unplug the extender I get normal download speeds again on my N4. I don't know why this is only a problem on my N4 and none of my other devices.

This is the extender I'm using:

http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-Multimedia-Wireless-Extender-WR300N/dp/B005D5M136/ref=zg_bs_1194486_11
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
If I disconnect and reconnect then I get blazing speeds.

Then I went out for a few hours and when I got back to the house the download speed has dropped. Only reconnecting fixes this.

I've tried disabling WiFi optimisation but it makes no difference. I've changed the WiFi channel on my router but still the issue occurs. It's driving me nuts.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miicho85:
Agree youtube is useless on wifi i thought it was hardware related but seeing this thread now i now is software related.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FLNexus:
well I don't know what happened between last night and this morning but my wifi speeds are back to normal now

we'll see how long it lasts
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipL:
Hi

Also seeing this issue. Disabling and re-enabling Wi-Fi and speeds are normal, after some time they drop and stutter.

Not sure if it is related however the device stops accepting pings after a while of Wi-Fi being enabled so an issue somewhere.

Regards

Phil
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
It's the GPS!

It's the GPS. If I leave the GPS off then the issue goes away and my phone maintains fast Wi-Fi speeds. If the GPS enabled then the problem occurs after using any app that uses GPS (Speed Test itself for example).

I can reproduce this every time:

1. Disable GPS and reconnect to your WLAN.

2. Fire up the Speed Test app and run a test. FAST!

3. Leaving Speed Test running go into settings and enable GPS.

4. Switch back to Speed Test and hit Restart Test. SLOW!

Once the connection speed drops it will stay like this even if GPS is disabled again and only reconnecting to the WLAN clears it.

So I'm leaving GPS disabled for now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freshly_Snipes:
Placebo. I never changed my GPS. it's always off. I'm home 90% of the day. Wifi hits like 24-33 mbps down. But it just streams videos horribly. Downloads are atrocious.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwlu2:
Using Panera's wi-fi, all the pages, even Play store, downloaded super fast. At home, it's impossibly slow. I have an N router, no extender... added my N4's MAC address to the router settings, didn't help a bit. Enabling/ diabling wi-fi on N4 doesn't do anything... I can't even claim a free replacement because the download speeds were great on a different network. My 2 laptops and the iPod touch never had any issues connecting, and neither did our extended family's various devices.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
The GPS is definitely causing my issue but not for others it would seem. I can reproduce the speed issue by toggling GPS on *every time*. With GPS disabled the problem doesn't occur.

Crazy, I know!

I got 21 down over WiFi on my N4 so idk what could be wrong with your phones..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwlu2:
My problem is solved!!! Turns out that my wireless router was single-band (2.4 GHz only.) N4 does not work with 2.4 GHz, although that option is available. We got a dual-band router, and as soon as the 5 GHz network was set up, my N4 started downloading web pages and apps the way it's supposed to. Thank God! !:D Hope this solution works for everyone else too.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranphi:
Just thought I'd update: got my replacement Nexus 4 today and it's got the exact same issue as my first Nexus 4, with incredibly slow speeds on my WiFi network at home. <heavy sigh> :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmywilly59:
still have the same problem even after you got a new N4?!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grubbster:
My phone works fine on 2.4 GHz. Where did you see that the N4 does not support this frequency?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranphi:
Yup, totally new replacement Nexus 4 and it didn't make a damn bit of difference. The replacement phone also is ridiculously slow on WiFi. :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranphi:
So I'd given up on using my Nexus 4, thanks to the slow WiFi speeds, and have been using a different phone. Then last night someone posted in the Google support thread for this issue:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40306

that they fixed this issue with their setup by flashing the DD-WRT custom firmware to their D-Link brand router.

I had considered buying a brand new router when I was troubleshooting both of the Nexus 4 phones I had but since my home network already has 2 different routers and both of them are recent models and up-to-date with their respective firmwares, I didn't bother.

Today I bought an ASUS RT-N10+ (rev. B1) router that is compatible with the DD-WRT firmware and planned to try it out tonight with my Nexus 4. I setup the ASUS router a little earlier this evening and decided to just go ahead and try it as it was, out of the box, with my Nexus 4 and it worked just fine! Right off bat I was getting download speeds of 2-5 MB/s in the Play Store, whereas before I would only get 200-500 KB/s.

I'm going to test it out over a few more days and make sure it continues to work properly but it would seem there is something that the Nexus 4 just does NOT like about my other 2 routers. (One router is the Verizon HomeFusion router that Verizon supplies for their LTE-based HomeFusion service and the other router is an Apple Airport Extreme).

Absolutely aggravating that this issue has only ever happend with the Nexus 4 phone (and 2 different ones at that). All the other cell phones and tablets I've used at home (and there have been LOTS) have never had this issue! And that includes my Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus (both GSM and LTE models) and my Motorola XOOM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsusx:
Sitting about 1ft way from my router, all tested one after the other same position on table.

Here's my results

PC - Ethernet - 8mb

Nexus 7 - Wifi - 7mb

Nexus 4 - Wifi - 1.6mb (best i've ever got is 3mb)

iPhone 4s - Wifi - 7mb

I'm so pissed off right now, I love this phone, even the battery life has exceeded my expectations, this wifi issue though, please god let it be firmware or a simple fix :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jocke_lulle:
I also got slow download speeds on my n4. I got about 10Mbit/s down. My n7 get around 30Mbit/s down. Im using asus router n56 with the latest fimrware. I have tried to change every setting in the router but I cant get it to work. Playstore is also very slow.

The strange thing is that from time to time I have got fast download speed(40-50Mbit/s) but it has just been for a very short time.

Has anyone found any solution to this annoying problem?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabeakster:
I just tried my wife's N4. It got the full 15 Mbps (the max speed for our cheap cable internet). The same speed as the wired ethernet PC and wifi laptop.

2.4 ghz band set on router.

But my OG Incredible (custom everything, variant of CM7)... not so much. It got 2 Mbps (lol)... for three tests in a row...

Then I plugged in my Incredible for power and it jumped to 11 Mbps (and big improvement in ping also). Its now done that for three tests in a row.

Have you guys tried plugging in for power? Is the phone going into a "battery saving" wifi mode?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I don't get slow download speeds.

~17 Mbps on 3G/HSPA+

~33 Mbps on WiFi.

WiFi is controlled by the kernel by the way. So if you're using a custom kernel, update your kernel or try another kernel out.

These speeds are with full bars on WIFI, sitting right in front of the router or in the next room.

Also have noticed that my Nexus 4 has been dropping the WIFI connection completely

and I've had to re-enable it over and over. Must have happened at least 5 times yesterday.

Rooted but otherwise stock.

Anyone on custom kernels having better luck?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saragis:
So I tried PACman rom but I'm having issues installing the LBE Privacy Guard app on it. After installing it if I try to start the app the phone restarts and gets stuck in a bootloop. Any advice or is it just not compatible? Seems like a great rom aside from this issue.

Thanks :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willstanners:
how severe is the bootloop? can you get into hboot(hold down power+volume up or down, im not sure which)? if so the just go to recovery and fullwipe.

if you are stuck on the htc logo, do a battery pull and then try the above. if this doesnt work then i think you might need to use fastboot
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saragis:
Thanks for the reply. I couldn't get into recovery by holding down volume down while booting, this usually works though. I was able to install another ROM through the command line as u suggested. I checked the market page of LBE Privacy Guard and apparently this is a known issue right now with all Jelly Bean based ROMs. Just a heads up for everyone.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lupipe:
hi guys,

I have one very important question for droid hd users, and this is my story. :)

Last couple of years I'm android user and still i did not manage to find decent phone when it comes to recording video in loud environments (concerte, house party's etc). I used to have 2 htc devices, and now I'm on galaxy nexus gsm version (the phone is ok but when I want to record something on party all I get is distrozion). So I was searching quite a while to find something in android world and not to move on apple side cause iphone recordings are very nice. And I read that new motorola razr familiy is good with this job, I read that there are some presets to choose (wind, concerte...) for video recording. So I want to know does someone have experience with this, for example recording video in night club on house party (I'm asking this cause iam a dj and I go out almost every weekend and every weekend I get crappy videos)?

One more reason why I'm asking cause in my country (Croatia) motorola is not selling this razr family, so I need to find it somehow and I want to be sure that this works good if I order it from some other country. Of course I was on youtube and I found lot of videos on concerte (rock mostly) and records are good, but I didn't find anything from house party and that is more important for me.

That's it guys, hope that someone can help me, and by the way I believe that this smartphone is really really good!

This is my first android, so I won't be able to help the community much, just with issues and solutions a user can come up with.

Been looking for a cellphone upgrade for the last year or two, and I picked this phone since it resembles my old HTC size and texture.

During my teenage years got Nokia's between 3310 and 6100 (s40) to 6630 (s60), and later moved to the WM camp with the HTC Touch. Really liked the phone and thanks to xda was able to upgrade from WM6 to 6.5 that extended the life of the phone way more than I expected (5 years but this is due to other circumstances as well... also can't remember my old xda account... )

My second device was a sony ericsson xperia x8, which was a really nice phone and had alot of cool themes, roms and stuff going on.

then i got the first htc desire, which i loved because it was fast and wasn't too big and due to it basically being the same as a nexus one the development was so awesome :D

Now i have my desire C which is a good little, phone and as others say it does what i want it too. But however, if some cyanogenmod development on this device came along it would be so much faster and smoother than with sense for certain. :)

Has anyone gotten the patched/cracked Google Wallet working? After activating one card I can no longer use the application. The application force-closed and cleared all the data telling me to try again. Now I cannot add an account and when it tries it force closes, and so I acquired the output of the logcat that occurs after:

1. Opening the application.

2. Clicking my email and then "Continue".

3. After returning to Apex Launcher and after Google Wallet stops responding.

The logcat is here:

Am I getting this because of a Secure Element problem or has nobody else been able to get the wallet to work?
