My Thoughts

I use the Galaxy nexus for work constantly! I am an IT manager and need the email and document functionality as well. I haven't had an issue with this! Everything has worked great for the past year. I like the nexus also because I play with the developing and flashing piece of it.

The nexus is still a great phone! I will be using it happily for the next year! The developer community alone is worth it to me.

with that said, If I was mostly looking at email, documents, and notes I would go with the Note II. The reason for that is the screen size. I also like the idea of having a stylus for writing and notes. I find it hard to take notes with a third party stylus on the nexus, so I would choose the dedicated stylus that Samsung has created. I have tested it and find it very useful and practical for note taking. The hardware is also quite nice on the note II.

That's my 2 cents...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrNoob113:
Hey fellas,

I bought a Nexus S a year ago, and I'm pretty satisfied with the device, a bit lag now and than but it's still a great phone.

I am thinking about switching to the Nexus 4 mainly because of the big display and the quad-core processor.

So, does it worth it? My NS currently running 4.2 so it wont feel much different but the little lags I am experiencing.

and the NS was a great phone a year ago and I thought it will last for at least two years.. will it be the same?

Well that's it folks, have a great day :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
I came from a s3 and I think it's worth it lol I didn't like the plastic feel of s3 and also I hold onto my phones for a long time so I rather had quad over dual core for future proof also I'm on T-Mobile and n4 supports their soon to be band 4 lte also n4 will be the first to get every update so that's definitely a plus. Im loving the brightness of LCD over amoled I would have to max my s3 while walking around campus but with n4 I barely have to increase it above min. On a side note I sold my s3 and was using the g2 for about a month before I got n4 so that's why I probably love the n4 so much lol

It almost entirely depends on whether you have 300 or so quid to spend on a limited (but significant) increase in performance.

Hello,

So when I use my Galaxy S3 with ICS 4.0.4, I get a keyboard that looks like this:

(attached JPG 1)

But when I update to Jelly Bean and set my keyboard to Lithuanian language, I get all my Lithuanian characters at the top of the keyboard, like this:

(attached JPG 2)

I would like to have it the old way, so I could just hold a different key and have my Lithuanian one pop up. Jelly Bean doesn't seem to offer this option. I don't like any of the ICS keyboards offered on the play store and I've found some stock ones on these forums, but they don't support my language. So, is there anything I could just import from my ICS file system to my Jelly bean and have it work the old way? Thank you in advance. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sscoop:
in JB you can switch languages by swiping the space virtual key left or right (as you can see in your jpg2 image you have lithuanian language written on the space key) if you have multiple languages selected.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chazwazzel:
Thank you, but the thing is, I do want to use Lithuanian language on my keyboard, but not with all the Lithuanian characters at the top like you see in the screenshot. The way it works on ICS is I just hold a certain English character (i. e. A) and an option to use a Lithuanian one pops up (i. e. Ą). So is there any way to have/import this to JB? All I need is the character layout from ICS. Thank you :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
Not sure if it's just me, but on my Nexus I am connected to wifi while at work and at home. When the screen turns off so does my data about 10% of the time. When I turn the screen back on it will show just the cell bars (full signal) with no data icon (H, 3G, E, etc.) and no wifi symbol. After unlock it will try and re-connect and eventually does. In my wifi settings I have keep wifi on during sleep set to "always", and wifi optimization turned off (<-- not sure what this does).

Anybody else with this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
Yeah I get this issue too after the update...even with WiFi sleep set to never....and the new option for WiFi performance switched off! Any help devs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ma7moud90:
Same for me, but try this : (this is what i do)

go to wifi settings and turn it on, wait for it to connect then turn it off, then on again.

this solves it for me but i have to do this every time i want to connect to a wifi network
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Reeebo:
This always happens to me too I just thought it was because of the new wifi-optimization so I never thought twice about it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sake40:

I am having the same problem.

Now that this is buried in Q&A I expect that it won't been seen as much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
Could any deva compare the driver for the WiFi from 4.1 and check the changes using a code compare app? Should be Peru ready if someone can tell me how to get at the code inside the files I could do it..... It might help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StillDRE:
Same problem here, any fix/solution for it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cognus:
judging from responses I guess many have tried/failed to find resolution.

in my case, and I THINK it is since 4.2.1 - can't prove it - the reception is just abysmal on my home ap [repeated, one single ap id/login]. nexus 7 beyond about 4 meters from any of the devices gets a flaky connection, will drop, reconnect in the background repeatedly. if I use wifi analyzer on the nexus it shows a "fair" signal at that spot - use it on a better device and of course it shows a better [green] signal .. surprise surprise.

my geriatric Optimus P509, the galaxy s4g, ipad mini, and venerable thinkpad x120e get good signal on the very spot.

I've tried off/on wifi, cache clearing - no sacrificial animals however...

any clues out there?

oh, and as some few others have noted, I get a different signal indication in portrait mode vs. landscape, no matter how my fingers are arranged. and just the act of flipping it into the horizontal will cause a disconnect/reconnect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JackAyu:
same problem, don't know how to solve. I guess (just guess) it may be relavent to power management, because it often happens at night, when I left the phone untouched for several hours. I think during this long period of time the phone goes into some kind of "power saving mode", which affects the wifi and data connection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
I'm in the same boat, I've got the same problem with mi wifi. Everything works great, except when I turn off the screen and my wifi begins to act crazy turning on/off all by itself.

I've tried latest aokp latest cm 10.1, different kernels but nothing. I'm thinking to go back to 4.1.1 to see will the issue still be there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StillDRE:
Report back if it works good in 4.1.1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
After flashing back to CM 10.0, everything is working perfect again, no wifi issues at all.

So it's a 4.2.1 issue... Maybe a modem + 4.2.1 issue? Or is this issue specific only for a few devices?

I'm using LF1 modem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:
I don't have this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
That's great! For you...

I have this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
I have the same wifi issue as well. When the phone is asleep wifi will drop and I don't get email notifications. I'm thinking about going back to 4.1 as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickcct:
Try to untick the wifi optimization. Mine one seems ok, without wifi drop after untick it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
I'll give it a shot, but I think that I have already tried that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
I tried this too but it didn't helped. Yesterday I've flashed rasbeanjelly and my WiFi worked fine, but today again WiFi drops everytime my GN is in deep sleep.

Don't know what to try or do next...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
You are right. It didn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KKB9750:
Another one for the "I have this issue" list...I was previously on Maddoggin's 4.2.1 ROM and I don't really remember this issue. I'm on Sourcery now and see it from time to time. Is there any general consensus if this is a ROM based problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
As far as I know it's not Rom based because the kernel controls the WiFi.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I tried the latest CM nightlys, AOKP and rasbeanjelly but every of these ROMs gave me this WiFi issue.

I didn't tried PA to see if an AOSP based ROM will makes some difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andermic:
I have had this problem too. I did some research on it and it appears to be a kernel setting of some sort when connected to newer routers.. I think anything that is Wireless-N and support this "feature." For now I use the following app:

WIFI High Performance Widget (I can't link out of XDA yet)

It just sets some sort of performance flag for wifi and keeps it fully awake all the time. Battery impact has been minimal while using it and you can specify which networks it will work with.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sporkette:
Had the Wi-Fi issues on cm 10.1 but am now on an aosp 4.2 ROM and I am having no issues. Don't think it is a problem with 4.2, but specific Roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nickcct:
I also having wifi issue in CM10.1. Now using AOKP. Seems no issue with AOKP. Think is Rom issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
I'm on stock 4.2.1 takju and having the issue...never used any alternative roms to this point either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
I did a factory reset yesterday and it seemed to help a bit. Only time will tell if this is actually the only solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
I turned off wifi optimization the other day and it seems to be doing better since then. Haven't noticed wifi dropping out since then. Maybe this will help someone else as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
I'm facing this issue as well, happens on every ROM i've tried.

Can all of you facing such an issue please post what kernel you are on and the version please.

I want to see if this is kernel-related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] punkeroso:
I have this issue too.

What I noted is that I have wifi drops if, and only if, I've put the phone in airplane mode. If I freshly reboot my phone with the wifi turned on, connection never drops.

I also tried to disable wifi before activating airplane mode but, in this way, sometimes I got disconnections.

Please test this and report. We need a point where to start.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
The strange thing in my case is that I haven't had one, not even a single one WiFi drop after a fresh ROM flash, but the next day, a lot of WiFi drops.

For the info, I run latest rasbeanjelly+franco 361 (interactive/deadline).

I still got WiFi drops but far more less than before on stock cm kernel. Don't know if it is related.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] P30SiNa:
I have this problem too! With stock rom and kernel or without, I have this problem anyway! It was ok with 4.1.

It's really bad!

My router is D-Link. I've read somewhere that most of the D-Link users have this problem. Please write your router model. maybe we have problem with some of the routers only

I used LeanKernel and Franco.Kernel. and even Stock. I have this problem on all of them.

It's completely random. sometimes it's ok for 2 days. and 1 day it keeps disconnecting.

I did a hard reset for my router and reconfigured it. but it didn't help

Stock rom, Rasbean rom, minco... I have problem on all of them!

Google should fix this problem asap. I don't know why they don't try to fix it!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] italbomber:
Thank you for some sort of suggestion. We have over 3 pages of people agreeing to having the problem but no solution. I noted that I did have this problem after activating airplane mode as well but not sure of the coincidence. What I will say is that I notice this happens to me alot when I am getting low on battery (30% or lower) Again not sure if it has anything to do with it but just throwing that out there.

---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 AM ----------

Related to this...Since my last reboot 2-3 days ago I had been using Wifi exclusively and had data turned off the entire time (because I'm on a 200mb data plan I leave it off most of the time). Wifi was staying connected during this time even when the phone would sleep. However, this evening I turned wifi off and data on. Later, when I switched back to wifi I noticed it was dropping out again when the phone would go to sleep.

I restarted the phone with wifi on and data off and I'll monitor how it does over the next day or so with only wifi and no data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] F-Fect:
The fix that worked for me was installing a different kernel. You should try that.

Which exactly kernel do you installed?

I tried few of them but that didn't helped me out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rylake:
I am on stock and it's the same issue. Not really ROM specific as far as I can tell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
Now I'm totally confused...

For several days I'm running rasbeanjelly + franco 361 and I've got WiFi drops from time to time through the day but today... Not one, not one single WiFi drop!

I use my phone heavy and every 15-20 minutes I'm unlocking it and check the web my mails and so on, so if there where WiFi drops I would notice them like the days before but today there were no drops.

I haven't change anything so I really don't know why the drops are gone...

This is driving me crazy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] songhengkaing:
I have no any issues with this wifi, i am on stock 4.2.1. I set my wifi sleep policy to never. I used to have this issue with custom rom, but after I come back to stock, this issue is gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
Takju or Yakju build?

Stock krenel or custom kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
Well I've confirmed that at least on my phone the problem is related to turning cellular data on. After a reboot wifi works fine and doesn't drop out when the phone is sleeping as long as I leave data turned off. However, as soon as I toggle data on and then off just one time wifi begins to drop when the phone sleeps. The only way to get it to stop dropping is to reboot the phone and make sure data is off. Can someone else test this on their phone to see if the same thing happens?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
For me it's completely unrelated to data being on or off.

I just switch on my phone with data off. And it just randomly has wifi on or off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KostasR:
This happens to me quite often... I have noticed it mostly when my battery drops below 40%. Maybe it has something to do with the battery levels:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
No to that for me as well. Even at 80% it still occurs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
I did this today. When I'm at home I use WiFi 24/7, but when I go out I use data. So I did this. When I had to go to my college today, I turned data on but didn't turn WiFi off. I went out, got out of my WiFi range, data was on and working.

I was a few hours in college, data worked normally and without problems. Went back home. When I've got home my phone reconnected itself on WiFi, I turned data off and I haven't had a single WiFi drop from then.

So, my conclusion, in my case it's not data related. Tomorrow I'm going to do the same but this time I'm going to turn WiFi off when I'm going to leave my house to see will be there any differences later and will be there WiFi drops.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
I hadn't thought about leaving wifi on while using data when out. I normally turn wifi off to save a little bit of battery. Today I'll leave wifi on when I go out and see if that helps with the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
This morning I decided to just turn off wifi for a few minutes and then turn it back on without messing with cellular data. Before turning wifi off I was having no issues with wifi dropping out. After turning it off and then back on a few minutes later it began to drop out when sleeping.

So I guess the problem isn't related to cellular data at all but is related to turning wifi off and on. FWIW, I use widgetsoid in the notification menu to turn it off and on. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
Can tell you it has nothing to doc with your widget.

I thought it's a kernel issue. But after switching to ak kernel from Franco. I'm facing the issue still.

Bloody hell starting to irritate the crap out of me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enel_:
That's right, the issue is all about turning WiFi on and off. After I stopped turning WiFi on and off, my issue with the WiFi drops are gone. It's on all the time :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
I got tired of dealing with the problem so I went back to 4.1.2. I'll report back on how it does. By the way...does anyone know if the problem exists on other roms like cyanogen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geckocavemen:
No problems with wifi today while running 4.1.2. I tried the 4.2 based liquid smooth rom after that and the wifi dropping issue returned...so I guess the problem is related to 4.2 somehow. Oh well.

Edited to add...I just noticed that the radios between 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 are slightly different. Is it possible that could be the problem? Would the 4.1.2 radio work in 4.2?

solution

Hi all

I am also facing this issue.

I am using stock 4.2.2

I have notice this problem only accrue only when u are on any data plan (such as edge or 3g) and u switch over to wifi and disconnect your data plan to save battery.

so far the only solution is first disconnect your data plan and after 2-3 sec only connect to wifi.

disconnect and reconnect wifi will resolve no need to restart while facing this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hycian:
Guys I am having the same issue on my phone. I forgot when I first experienced this issue but as of writing my Galaxy Nexus is running Stock 4.2.2 YAKJU. I even took the trouble to do a factory reset as well as a clean install when the former didn't resolve the problem. However, the wifi dropping issue remains.

This is VERY annoying because you know when it happens, wifi gets disconnected and the phone doesn't switch to 3g data so it is completely disconnected and not synced. On many occasions, I have missed out on a lot of important emails and whatsapp messages. I'm kinda disappointed with Google because it seems they have never admitted this issue and there's no fix for such a long time already, especially this is known to be a widespread problem. :mad:

My Sprint Galaxy Nexus is presently on 4.2.1 and has been facing wifi issues. The Wifi button/switch/toggle under the settings options has "Grayed OUT" and wouldn't allow me "ON it".

This happened after I downloaded an app from google play. However after which i removed the same by unistalling it and have been facing this wifi issue since then.
