As many of you know, since the 4.3 update, WiFi on the galaxy nexus stops automatically scanning after going into deep sleep. The only way to get it to scan again is to go into the WiFi menu or toggle it on and off. Let's try to find which change in 4.3 broke this on the galaxy nexus.

I have been looking through the changes that have been made between 4.2 and 4.3 to how wifi is handled and may have found what is causing the issue.

I think I may have found something. In /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf

Theres a line:

disable_scan_offload=1 (has to do with allowing scanning to be offloaded to the driver)

This line didn't exist in 4.2.2. Change it to 0 and reboot and see if your wifi scanning doesn't stop working after a while.

I just ran an errand and it connected perfect when I got home which is usually when it stops working. I need further testing but would appreciate some more testers to see if there's a real change in behavior.

I will make a backup and try this. I'll report back what I see when I've had time to see. Thanks for the effort.

Just get a 4.3.1 ROM. WiFi issue fixed...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
No its not fixed in 4.3.1. I am on cm10.2 4.3.1 and without this modification it definitely stopped scanning today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeverSeparate:
Would it be possible to find a fix for the data hand off issue using the same thought process? A simple edit to a text file and problem solved? Wouldn't that be nice!

From me with Harmony

Unfortunately I had it stop scanning yesterday. I gotta look more deeply.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MWisBest:
I don't quite understand what you mean by this. Are you saying that if you go into deep sleep WiFi just stops working or something?

Are you by chance thinking of this?: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42665427&postcount=2459

Also in WiFi settings on 4.3 there are more options there than there was with 4.2, just try looking through them, I believe there's even ones for battery savings or something. Also is a setting to allow WiFi to turn itself on to get a more accurate location automatically or something, among other things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Nomar1245:
I've had the same problem with every non-stock based Jelly Bean Rom I have tried. I do my wipes, then flash, then boot and I have a normal amount of free space left on my 2 GB of internal storage.

If I reboot then I always end up with only 250-450mb remaining of free space, just from a reboot. It doesn't take more space with each reboot it just claims it initially and stays there.

If I flash the ROM then boot, install a bunch of apps and then reboot it will treat it normally, until I try to install more apps or move the ones I have installed. More often than not I can't even update my apps because it says I have insufficient space.

I have more detail listed below, but am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any thing I should do?

More detail(boring) section:

When I flash a jelly bean rom, I wipe everything first:

Dalvick Cache

Data

System

Cache

emmc

Android Secure

and I've tried wiping the SD Card also, then mounting it and moving the rom and gapps before flashing.

I've tried flashing all of the following roms and I've had this issue:

[ROM] 4.3 | Hellybean | Diablo Kernel [10-10-13]

[Rom][JellyBean][4.3][BeanStalk Build 4.3.1001][updated 10/2]

[rom][4.3][JLS36G] Evervolv 3.3.0p1 [Oct07] [SpeedDemon]

[ROM][4.3] Unofficial SlimBean [Build 1.6] [Oct06]

[ROM][JB] [4.3] Avatar ROM for Samsung Galaxy Note(quincyatt)- Updated[Oct 04,2013]

[ROM] [OFFICIAL] [NIGHTLIES] [quincyatt] PAC-Man 4.3

[ROM][AOSP] [Nightly/Release] CarbonRom JB [quincyatt]

Cyanogenmod Nightlies, Stables, & RC's

I'm using TWRP v2.6.1.0

Roms based off the Stock roms are work without issue.

Currently I'm using Anthony820's [ROM][CM9-Kang] Jellybean Sandwich v2.0 [08/25/13] which is fantastic, but he mentioned in the thread that he moved to the Note 3 so I don't expect much more development from him on this device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1JonnyZ:
I just flashed Hellybean yesterday and noticed the same thing. I have flashed many ROM's but never noticed it before? I did reboot into recovery after install and wiped the cache and Dalvik and everything was fine then, give it a shot and see what happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Nomar1245:
Thanks for the advice. I'll be trying this when I get home.

Update:

I tried your advice. I flashed BeanStalk and after setup I had used 200 MB of internal storage. I restarted and then it changed to .93 GB used. I rebooted to recovery and wiped Dalvik and Cache and I still have .93 GB used. I rebooted to recovery and did another two wipes I'm going to try Hellybean because it has most of what I want and update later.

Second Update:

Same result with HellyBean.

I've decided to just use BeanStalk and just remove things I won't be using with Titanium Backup. Giving up seems appropriate right now... :\
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pTeronaut:
There's your problem. ;)

4.3 requires a larger system partition that previous Android versions, and at the moment, there is no official recovery for our Notes which can partition our devices accordingly.

In BlownFuze's AOKP thread, he has provided a modded version of CWM which can format the system partition giving 4.3 room to breathe. The downside to this, is that for me, nandroids do not work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Nomar1245:
Thank you very much. You have basically doubled my phones storage!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
So I've seen some threads about this here, in the Verizon section, on other forums and I just don't get it. I've already done the advanced settings tweaks, the *#0011# thing, upgraded my AC66U's firmware and it just doesn't load pages as quickly as my Note 2 or my partners S4. So anyway, I just tried disabling data in settings and using data on-off app and LTE/3G stay on regardless of this setting. Could this possibly be the culprit? I might have to return the phone if I can't solve this within a week :(

With data disabled

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] llfloyd79:
In Wifi settings uncheck Auto Network Switch. Once I did that my wifi was fine and stayed connected.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
Yeah, my Wi-Fi is good, doesn't disconnect, but web page loading is less snappy than my note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cantelumber:
Thanks for the advice, still having issues after unchecked auto. Not as frequently on my home network, but on open networks, same ;"your Internet connection is unstable ":'( 7 days left! :'(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] thekingofmean:
Got any details on these upgrades?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
Go to dialer, *#0011# hit menu, Wi-Fi, turn off Wi-Fi power save mode, reboot. Go back in to confirm it's disabled. As for AC66U firmware upgrade, simply go to the product page on Asus' website, download and update through the router.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cantelumber:
Confirmed as known issue on sprint forums. Well that took long enough. Let's see if they issue a solution before my 14 days are up. If not I will never willingly purchase another Samsung product again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
Thanks, just saw it. I think this whole thing has to do with the Wi-Fi chip used in the Note 3. I remember Anand mentioning something about a cheaper chip than that of the S4 and something about extra power saving features.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cantelumber:
Well what a fail on their part, yeah I'm done with Samsung.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
Yeah, Brian had quite a bit to say about the BCM4339 combo. I wish I had paid more attention to this prior to purchasing, but I still have until late next week to return. Btw, is the one time return thing with Sprint only good for swaps, or will they do a one time return as well? Also, I got it from the website, so can I still return it in store?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BrianBaker:
I had the poor wifi message come up the first 2 days I had the phone..Nothing since.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cantelumber:
, went to swap note 3 Sunday to satisfy my curiosity , the store rep does swap in front of manager and sees "Internet connection is unstable " in notification bar of 2nd note 3 handset, I showed him my htc was connected to the same network and was able to switch wi fi networks flawlessly. He claims he will talk to his Samsung rep this week and if not resolved, I could confirm by phone dissatisfied and return after 14 day guarantee as long as I call it in before. Hmmmmm. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
I set up an RMA to return mine yesterday and switched back to my Note 2. Anyway, I booted up the Note 3 a few hours ago, with Wifi only (no service), and this thing is flying through loading everything. This all makes me think that this is related to 3G/4G data + Wifi both being active at the same time. I really wish I knew, but I'll test some more until the RMA kit arrives and post back later.

Edit - Actually I just realized something. My Note 2 is rooted and I use ad blocker, whereas my Note 3 is not rooted, meaning ads load in everything including speedtest itself. I'm thinking this could be part of the problem, at least with my web page load times. Hmmmmm

It must be user error my wireless works fine on multi wireless networks and I'm able to turn it off wireless when needed there are two setting in the advanced tap under wireless one is (Auto Network Switch) and (Always allow scanning When wifi is off option) when I disable those two wireless stays off till I need it. On my work wireless I pulled 30 megabits per second close to 35 megabits per second home wirless 4glte 20 -30 megabits per second guys stop crying like little girls most new phones have bugs I'm sure they will get worked out. go get an HTC one or an Iphone 5s
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jocelyn:
Rofl!!! Learn 2 Read ;)

I've already done advanced settings stuff, immediately after receiving it. This is all related to ping and not maximum throughout aka what you mentioned is irrelevant.

Anyway, if you own an AC66U, disable explicit Beamforming (under professional tab). It's not even supposed to be implemented yet, but disabling it has improved my ping and throughout quickness substantially.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aaronmarsh632:
Hi,

Which would be the most reliable way to read the model number of the phone? (I'm currently using Sony LT26i)

I run getprop and there are a couple of commands which return the result LT26i...

ro.semc.product.model

ro.product.model

ro.product.device

ro.build.product

Which of those would give the correct result for all other android phones, or would the result be the same regardless of the device connected - I ask because I currently dont have multiple devices to test with.

Also when reading carrier information using the gsm.bla commands is this specifically referring to the current sim in the phone as it returns results pertaining to the currently inserted sim but the ro.carrier command returns the result UNKNOWN (but maye this is returning the lock information in my case the phone is unlocked but I dont know which is why im asking).

Also finally ro.secure returns the value 1, is this referring to the bootloader lock state or something else?

I cant seem to find detailed documents on each command so I hope you dont mind me asking - i'm just researching android commands right now.

Thanks

What do you get from

Build.MODEL

and

Hi,

I don't get any results with these - command box is just blank. I do get results with all my listed commands but I'm just trying to determine which command gives the most accurate model number across different brand devices for example if I run the command ro.product.model on a sony and get the correct result, will it be the same for if this command is ran on a htc or samsung etc - will it still get the correct result regardless of device?

Thanks for the reply
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stepie22:
the getprop command just searches the build.prop file (located in /system om my phone), so the value (ro.****** or whatever) depends on the device and what is available in that file - that is why PicomatStudios's commands didn't return anything: your build.prop doesn't have that.

I also really want to know how to identify a device so I'm going to continue following this. Just one more thing: the following looks to me to be the most promising, but you'll have to compare the build.prop file with other phones's file to see.

ro.product.model

ro.product.brand

ro.product.name

ro.product.device

ro.product.board

ps. I use the above in combination with each other to identify, I would love to know if there was a better way, that works om other phones!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aaronmarsh632:
Thanks for the info, i'd agree the above seems to be the most universal, I have checked a few devices with positive results and also some information found here http://guardianproject.info/wiki/Android_getprop_collection concludes the same
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PicomatStudios:
Yeah these are from the Java API rather than getprop commands (might not be useful depending on the context!)

How easy does this fit into pant pockets?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danutzz:
Very easy if your not wearing tight pants. My girlfriend would not be able to fit it in her pants, it's just to big.... but seriously , if you have an inch of space between your leg and pants you should have no problems.

Side note: I don't get why people complain about the size of the phone, and/or weight. It's not like you need to be a trained body builder to lift these devices. Plus the added real-estate is a bonus when playing games, browsing the web, taking notes, and all the other stuff people normally do on a telephone.

One complaint vs the note II is the weight of the 3. It's too light for me to notice it in my pocket and sometimes freak out thinking I left my baby behind somewhere.

In the end, if you can't handle the invalid judgments people give you regarding the size of your phone, then don't buy it. If you want the best smartphone available today, get it.

I would suggest installing the AOSP Browser if you have root. Use the installer by the same name in the play store. Choose the Chromesync option during install. The new default browser is too gimped besides it's pretty tabs.

Honestly I use chrome....I don't see why everyone wants a stock browser or the aosp one when chrome is awesome. Maybe there are issues with it that don't bother me or don't notice, but I love chrome. It syncs all of my bookmarks between my tablets phone and my desktop with no issues....I can even follow what I open on device the other ones....don't see could be bad it myself than flash support but I don't think aosp or stock one has that either
