Wifi Switches off and doesn't re-enable

I'm not sure if this is a rom-specific issue, but I can't seem to find a proper fix for the issue.

Almost every time wifi has been disconnected for a bit (i.e. during commutes) the wifi shuts off by itself and refuses to turn back on. Pressing the wifi on-off button shifts the position of the button to "on" but no networks appear. If I leave the wifi settings page and go back, the wifi is back in the "off" position.

This has been happening consistently since I moved to Denmark from Canada about a month ago. Things I've tried, based on search results:

-changing wifi region code to Europe (no option for Denmark or Scandinavia)

-wiping caches

-taking out and putting back in sim card

-taking out battery and letting it sit for a minute before putting the batter back

-re-flashing the rom

Luckily I've found out that the issue can be stopped with a reboot or by switching airport mode on and off, so it's not that bad of a problem. That said, if anybody's got any ideas for fixes, I'd appreciate hearing about them, as I'm worried that I'll forget to check one time while I'm at home and will eat up all of my limited data.

Thanks for the help, and the rom's great by the way. Since switching, I doubled the battery life and often get 48 hours of use on one charge!

just flashed this rom and loving it (first AOSP rom) but whatsapp has been prompting message is corrupted. may i know if there is any solution to this problem? :)

Don't use it personally so no definitive answer although a quick Google search turned up plenty of people with the same question and plenty of solutions ......Google+ Watsapp+ corrupted=solution ??

did try google + w03 slimkat + whatsapp + corrupted but yet to see any solutions. what have you seen/found which i may missed? thanks for the help though! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SIGMAxB:
From search results it does not appear to be ROM specific you may need to force close the app clear the data then reinstall directly from playstore. Did you restore your apps through titanium backup or any other similar utility or were they all fresh installs? I ask because you said (first AOSP ROM) I assume your coming from (touchwiz) therefore backup may not be compatible....

.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kzhkr:
used the traditional method - just backup within the app itself. then clean install from playstore then restore through whatsapp itself again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZzFDKzZ:
What rom did you switched too?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kzhkr:
tried using back stock rom and no issues with whatsapp. i just flashed back to w03 slimkat, and immediately 1 crash occurred. i'm damn curious what's causing it :(

Anyone else having problems with wifi? I press the wifi toggle and it doesn't change. I currently cannot connect to my wifi. I'm on v25 since the 1st with 0 issues just started yesterday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mbdw:
I am having a similar issue. For me, toggling airport mode on and off and then going back into the wifi settings allows me to switch wifi on again. I can't figure out how to get the issue to stop happening more generally, though, and so whenever the phone has been disconnected from wifi for awhile, I have to re-toggle airport mode to get it to work again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZzFDKzZ:
I try your method does not work for me. Not sure what's going on. Already did a factory reset and problem still persist.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vmatt:

Can anyone tell me if you can send a Gmail to a group from your contacts with this Rom? I have not been able to do this since CleanROM Ace

I can do multiple people manually, but doing a group from my contacts , most current Roms are not capable. I am looking for Roms that will.

I'm having problems with my mobile connection. It would be fine for a while then stop working even though it show LTE. Anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Seems that some people have this issue, across different Roms. The one "quick" fix for it, is to toggle airplane mode on and off and that should kick it back into gear. This also happens to me on stock samsung Roms. And that seems to work for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] tdy2kn1:
Sometime it does. If not I have to do a reboot. I only notice it started happening on v24. Just upgrade to v25 not sure if it works
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZzFDKzZ:
Yes, but looks like its a hardware issue. When I tap the back of the phone the wifi comes back.

Browser video playback

Hey guys

This is my first time trying slim kat and so far so good. However, I have an issue with video playback in the android and Chrome browser. It plays fine if I don't full screen the video. However once I hit full scree the screen goes black and browser crashes. I tried clearing cache but still does the same thing. Any ideas way?

Thanks in advance!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
That seems to be a problem a few people have been having. I would suggest trying dolphin browser and then installing the flash player apk that dolphin supports. That should hopefully be a work around for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rainman26:
Try different browsers bro.

Thought i'd do a little battery sleep test.

Did a clean install for V26.

Unplugged at 100%. Left it alone for 10 hrs and came back to it with 82% remaining. Not sure what was up.

Connected to Wifi all night. would that be the problem? should i have turned Wifi off and use my cell network?

i'll try again tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ToxicWaste:
Wanted to take the time to say thanks for the zillionth time. I appreciate the hard work, the awesome ROMs you do, updates and the thread contributors as well for all the support.

Keep up the great work. V26 is humming along just fine.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Only 18% drain for 10 hours of idle, that seems... fine to be honest. Does that seem bad to you? Do you normally get better?

Speaking of battery, I seem to be having issues with v26, my battery is draining like crazy. First I had gmail sync that was just keeping the phone awake, dropped nearly 80 percent in a number of hours. Charged up and the phone still doesnt seem to be going to deep sleep as much as it should be. I will monitor the wakelocks, but I was wondering if anyone else is getting bad wakelocks on v26. And I come from a clean install (including internal wipe).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] oppiee:
Awesome rom. Super quick and loving the battery life. Thank you. I do have a few small issues.

My caller ID if not on my contact list will show up scrambled with a bunch of symbols. Not sure why.

My sound is always low when on speaker unless I press volume down. Anyway around that? It's just annoying when I keep having to do that.

Thank again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
1.8% battery drain per hour. Not sure what you are expecting but it seems fine to me. Keep in mind that if you had just clean flashed the build Google will use your WiFi to sync all the services, which includes G+ contacts and photos.

Lasy , you may want to check if the Android OS wakelock was caused by location services and disable those.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] s384:
I seem to have an issue that I didn't have before flashing this Rom. Charges slow sometimes. Or sometimes just get to a certain percentage and doesn't go higher. And sometimes the charging led will turn off while still charging. Otherwise no issues noted.

I flashed from a 4.1.2 touchwiz Rom. Not sure if that would cause issues since I wasn't already on updated bootloader.

---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 AM ----------

Judging by all the icons in the status bar there might be some background stuff going on. I'm a light user. No sync. Not many apps running. Greenfield, etc. In 10 hours I'm guessing I'd lose at most 4 or 5 percent though I will test it out next time I sleep

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascian:
I'm having similar issues, but to be honest I've been having problems with the last couple builds as well. I suspect it might be something with the Gapps, but am not certain at this time. I installed clean, and have had several crashing issues, including crashing that didn't allow the system to boot.

Last night I went to bed and overnight the battery went from 80% to 14% with no apps running and now Android crashes after 2 minutes of up time regardless of input. It's completely unusable in its current state despite numerous restarts. I've consistently had random restarts, settings and contacts wiped, and abundant force crashes from the last few versions but it seems to be getting worse, not better with new versions. Clean install every time and the worst part is that it occurs "spontaneously" while I'm not even using the device. Will have to investigate some processes I guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mds2004:
Same here so I had to do a clean install after.

Where is the location to enable swiping of the notification bar to adjust brightness?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ekimnal:
I did it again last night and these were the results i was expecting.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rainman26:
In regards with the battery life in v26, what governor and scheduler are you using? I use plasma kernel with lulzactive and deadline as the settings and I get excellent deep sleep. That's 5% drain with WiFi and auto sync turned off for about 8-10 hours. I use greenify at that state.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] contramundi:
slimrom weekly 8.4 has a "audio.r_submix.default.so" and so does weekly 8.2,

if will's v26 is based upon the official/stable 8.0 then it would explain why the file is missing as it's missing in that one as well.

don't suppose there's an easy way to install *.so files besides flashing the rom in recovery? If you know of one, you could try to simply extract it from either of the new weeklies and put it in your current install.

slimrom weekly 8.2 was released on practically the same day as v26 so i reckon will was already compiling his rom when the dev's from slimrom released their new weekly :)

If will hasn't released a new update this weekend, then i'll try to copy that file from a slimrom install on my phone to this rom, feeling the urge to flash aosp again anyway, but the next few days i don't have that much time to set everything up from scratch :P

Hey guys,

My phone is on Rogers.

Going back to Stock.

Hi All.

Sorry I have to leave. Purchasing that Note 4 soon. Just need some advice.

I have been using SlimKat v4.4.2 but I want to sell my Note II now and I would like to get the Stock Rom back on the phone just without the bloatware. Is it possible with this bootloader (I believe mine is i317ucalj2) and if so, can anyone direct me to a good thread that had a bloat-free version of the stock ROM? I read something about tripping the KNOX and so I just want to be sure that I don't screw anything up; Ran the INFO app and got my bootloader as - I317UCALJ2.

Thanks all.

i'm afraid i'm not that lucky, as soon as i enter the screen casting part of the display settings, all i see is "no nearby devices" even though my chromecast is on and the chromecast app can connect to it, android itself is unable to find it. (have this issue with the 8.4 weekly from slimrom as well)

you could try if it works on your device though,

simply put the .so file under /system/lib/hw/ and give it the same permissions as in the screenshot.

both the file and the screenshot where taken from the 8.4 weekly slimrom.

My previous post regarding this was slightly off though, as you didn't mention the .so extension, i assumed the libs in the rom where compressed or would've been installed with a different extension as they had in the zip file. As this isn't the case, you should technically be able to simply extract any of the missing libs tfrom the weekly slimrom, and simply put it inside the hw folder with the correct permissions. (if it should bug you for any more missing ones that is)
