Ok I understand 5g can be wonky when it comes to phones. I also understand that 5g doesn't transmit as far.

Now my question is, Why on all roms with the exception of Revolt 4.2.2. I can never connect to my 5g wifi network? Is it perhaps made with a different wifi source?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nicola maino:
Hi everybody. I'm new in this forum and I hope that someone have an answer for my problem.

My galaxy nexus is bricked. I've got the cm10 or 10.1 (I don't remember very well), bootloader unlocked, root permissions, and cwm recovery installed. Now, When I try to switch on my device, the bootanimation of the cm appears but before show me the screen where I can put my pin code to unlock the device, it restarts and it do this until I remove the battery. Sometimes, I can insert the pin code and I can unlock my galaxy nexus but just this happened, it restarts :( I can not do anything. I can Only go to bootloader mode or odin mode, or use the recovery.

THIS IS THE TRUE PROBLEM. if I've tried to format the device with the recovery but nothing happen. I try "format system" option, "format sd card", I've tried every option but nothing happen. It seems that the phone doesn't respond to the recovery or every other order that I say to the phone with my pc. yes, I've tried also with odin, galaxy nexus toolkit, nexus root toolkit. I can't format my phone! It's a mystery! it had never happened before.

If I try with "format system" option, it appears the bootanimation of the cyanogenmod! usually it might apperar only "google" with the image of an padlock...

This has already happened to someone?

(sorry for my bad english I'm italian)

CMod is great about putting tutorials up for their supported devices. Are you running their recommended recovery? What model of gnex is it? Can't post links but just google 'How to install CyanogenMod on the Galaxy Nexus' and your gnex model and run through their tutorial. By the way, your problem is usually referred to as a 'boot loop'. And those are never fun

Hi guys, pretty much as per title. I'd run my phone so it need fully charging, then put it on charge when it's empty. After about 15-30 minutes it just decides to turn itself on and i'm guessing this a is a 'feature' as it did this with the stock HTC ROM and it's doing it with Cyanogenmod.

This really pisses me off and I don't see any point in it, is there any way to turn this off or disable it?

Thanks.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejan16v:
Hi everyone,

I have Nexus 7 3G (2012) device with stock android KOT49H.

Fastboot is locked (from the day one).

With last android version WiFi signal reception is poor.

Is is possible to revert back to JWR66Y by using downloaded image file?

If yes, what is the safest way?

Can "Unified Android Toolkit v1.2.0" do the job?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Extremely unlikely that the ROM has anything to do with signal strength issues. All that kind of crap is handled in the Broadcom proprietary firmware blob /vendor/firmware/fw_bcmdhd.bin, and that hasn't changed in the last few releases.

But "reception" is a vague word. That could be signal strength issues, disconnect/reconnects, interference... all sorts of things.

I don't doubt you are having problems, nor that they started happening near the time you did the upgrade; but it could be purely coincidental they started happening at the same time. ("post hoc ergo proctor hoc" fallacy).

There were a few folks that had their WiFi antenna jiggle loose - search here on XDA for those posts.

But anyway I would recommend you do some experimenting with your WiFi setup (location, antenna orientation, check using other devices at the same location, see if portable phones, microwave ovens or incandescent lights/trimmers are causing problems, etc) before you pin the blame on software.

With a locked bootloader and an intent to stay that way your options are few. Even the "factory images" require that you unlock your bootloader and that causes all of your data (including "sdcard" data) to be wiped. All the toolkits presume an unlocked bootloader.

If you intend to go down this route, at least make a backup of everything you can with MTP, and maybe look into ClockworkMod's "Helium" (formerly "Carbon") backup application - it does not require a rooted tablet. (But I haven't been keeping up with it's capabilities, especially since newer releases of Android have been adding SElinux features - I don't know if Helium works with 4.4.x).

good luck
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejan16v:
Thanks for your reply.

I know that unlocking will erase all the data and solve the problem of reverting back the android version.

I already have done that on my Nexus 4 before rooting.

Anyway I was wondering if there is way to revert back to previous version without unlocking.

WiFi signal is quite poor on Nexus 7. Please see the photo of Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 3g on same wifi router.

Nexus 7 is still on warranty.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
dejan16v

photobucket was down when I just looked, but I'll take your word for it that the N7 seems different than your other equipment.

I just used that app "WiFi Analyzer" (farproc) just now; at a distance of 20' (line of sight) from my router, I observe a signal strength on my N7 ranging from -30 to -40 dBm.

It is normal to see up to 10-12 dBm differences at a given distance just due to orientation of either the tablet or router/antenna(s)... or other stuff such as reflections from walls/metal object. But if you see something that is a lot worse than this, say something like 30 dBm or worse (more negative) than you should strongly suspect either a loose antenna cable or damaged hardware - not a software issue.

But, if the tablet is under warranty you might want to return it rather than crack the back cover off.

---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

OK I just saw the pbucket image. I see that the N7 is about 24 dBm worse than the best of the three. That's a signal which is more than 100x weaker than the best in the group.

Surprisingly, that doesn't really indicate a huge problem; it *could* be a loose mini-coax cable, or something which is right at the ragged edge of the manufacturing limits of the N7. If it were 30 dBm worse (1000x weaker!!!), then I would say for sure you have a problem.

You have to be careful about interpreting those numbers: take any of those three pieces of gear and just rotate it slowly around any of its three axes (that is, keeping its distance and direction from the router about the same). You will probably see up to 10 dBm differences on the same piece of gear; that's why it isn't easy to say that a difference of 20dBm between two pieces of gear is particularly meaningful.

BTW, -60 dBm is a pretty decent signal. You won't notice dropouts or even reduced data speeds at that signal level. (But I don't know how far from you router you are; if the N7 is nearly on top of the router, then there *is* something wrong ... but in that case you would be seeing -20 dBm or better on the best gear).

But I digress mightily from your initial inquiry - and I can tell you unambiguously that ROM software doesn't effect signal strength. Hardware definitely does though, even seemingly innocuous stuff like a poorly seated antenna cable connector.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejan16v:
Thanks for reply.

I am not quite sure what to do. I have to say that in home it works OK. But when wifi is not so strong it loses reception.

I think that I will borrow nexus 7 from friend and test it with my side by side. Then I will decide about bringing it to service.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
hi dejan16v

That seems like a pretty good idea so you are not comparing apples to oranges.

Here is a simple test that might shed some light on the situation:

==>> If you bring your N7 to a distance of about 1 meter from your WiFi router (direct line of sight), what is the BEST signal strength you observe?

(I wouldn't put it any closer than 1 m to avoid overloading the radio front-end)

- Arrange all antennas on the router so they are vertical

- 1 meter distance measured from router antennas to the tablet

- N7 at the same height as the router antennas (not above the router or at a high angle)

- put WifiAnalyzer app in "AP list" mode because signal will be > -40 dBm

- make sure to rotate the tablet slowly (+portrait ccw -> +landscape ccw-> -portrait ccw-> -landscape); it is possible that you will see a strong polarization effect. (It depends on your router's design)

Also, I suppose you should say what channel the WiFi router is on - the maximum power allowed in the EU is different between the 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz bands. (Although this might only be a 3 dBm difference)

If you see -10 dBm to -20 dBm best-case signals, then your N7 Wifi is probably perfectly normal and sending it in for a replacement won't do anything for you.

this statement caught my eye:

Different devices will exhibit different maximum ranges; that is quite normal because of differences in antennas, board geometry, etc. It would be highly unusual if all devices lost their connection at exactly the same distance... especially because merely tilting the device one way or another can cause a 10x change in signal strength. From what you wrote, I can't tell if this is (a) just a situation where you are bothered because they are different, or (b) you are having actual troubles where you most frequently use a WiFi connection.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dejan16v:
I have done some tests.

Tablet is laying on table surface at the same level as router as antena.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
dejan16v

-50 dBm at one meter distance? that does seem very poor!

my N7 shows anywhere from -14 to -24 dBm at that distance.

Here's some rough numbers:

- most WiFi routers transmit at +17 dBm (ETSI) or +20 dBm (FCC)

- in the 2.4 Ghz band, the free space path loss over the first meter is about 40 dBm, so you might expect to see somewhere around -20 to -23 dBm at that distance. -50 dBm is 1000x weaker than that!

(in 5Ghz channels, the free space path loss would be roughly 6 dB worse, you would expect to see -26 to -29 dBm in that band @ 1m distance)

====> just to be sure that its not your router, are those *approximately* the values you observe with your other devices?
