I've got an 8.4 but I'm assuming the WiFi hardware is the same??? I've had mine for several months and never dropped a connection (except when my router went down) . I use it mainly on a 2.4 Ghz network at work. In my office I'm on the other side of an elevator shaft from the access point so reception isn't good on any device in my particular location - but it works and even there never dropped a connection. At home I've got it on 5 Ghz and where I typically use it the signal is very strong. On speedtest.net it matches the speed of my desktop PC which is wired into the router....so it's getting all my internet connection has to offer (service level is 30 Mbps but speedtest.net usually shows 32 - 35).

I'm assuming you have already checked the obvious things like signal strength? Does it drop the connection in some locations but not others? Does it make a difference what router or access point you are connecting to? Interference from other WiFi networks or (if using 2.4 Ghz) other devices like cordless phones?

Try installing WiFi Analyzer (free in the play store). It will give you a real time chart of your signals strength for all access points it can detect on both 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz. For example in my Culdesac I can see at least 6 other access points with pretty strong signals (all my immediate neighbors). At my office, on the side of the building facing an appartment building on the opposite side of the street, I can see at least 25 2.4 Ghz access points. Amazing how many are named Xfinity WiFi or Linksys :). On the other hand, on the 5 Ghz band in my home I only see one access point other than mine.

Try manually setting your router/Access point to a channel no one else is using. Switch to 5 Ghz if your router has it or buy a new router if it doesn't. This band is a lot less crowded, at least where I live. If your signal strength is low in the place you want to use the tablet, try moving closer to the router to see if that helps. If it does, consider moving the router or getting a second router or repeater.

I use to have problems in my home with 2 things.

A baby room monitor - REALLY tore up my wifi all over the house!

A set of wireless rear surround speakers was a problem for about a day. Lucky for me they have the ability to change the channel they use. Wipped out my freq counter, found out where they were and moved them to ch 11. Unit isn't marked as to what 3 channels you can select from. So the freq counter helped me find where they were and where I could put them. After I got them on ch11 I moved the router to ch4 as there was no one using it near by. Problem solved and have no wifi problems at all with the Sammy.... Matter of fact my router sits on a cabinet 6 feet off the floor. I get coverage over my whole .7 acre Ponderosa while listening to music riding the mower!
[Galaxy Tab S General] spacemanvt:
my wifi seems to drop once in a while too but i think its the crap router i use.. not sure

i also reset my tab and that helped.
[Galaxy Tab S General] flhthemi:
Another thing I just thought of that you may want to check.....

Make sure no devices are fighting with each other trying to get the same address on your network. I just went through this last night. Once resolved, no problem.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ratman6161:
A lot of this sort of problem can be fixed by going to 5 Ghz - which may mean a new router if you are using a router that isn't dual band. Most of those other devices in homes (and in your neighbor's homes too) are on 2.4 Ghz so there are a lot of things that compete for that spectrum that aren't even WiFi.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Maduro78:
No WiFi issues here
[Galaxy Tab S General] nozeit:
No wifi issues here. I was on stock for about the 1st 30 days on the device and have rooted and installed various ROMs since. I would argue that this device has better wifi than other devices in my house, though my router is not AC so I have no comment on AC performance. I do have an issue with N 5 ghz networks not being seen right now, but that is something I induced.
[Galaxy Tab S General] jawz101:
Too many factors to consider but I can say if other's haven't had issues than it's likely something else.

Distance from access point

Access point's distance from other electronic equip.,

Wireless channel

G or N connection

latest firmware on wireless access point

cabling on AP

trying a different Access Point or wireless network altogether (coffee shop, etc)

wireless sucks to troubleshoot. Constantly changing settings until some magical combination works for all of your equipment.

like to connect my Nexus 5 to wireless N I have to set my 5Ghz channel to be on upper or lower frequency band or something- can't remember which it's supposed to be, though. My PSP needs the 2.4Ghz radio set on a b/g mixed setting. That's the only weird wireless settings I've ever needed to actually get specific devices to connect.

if you're looking for advice we'd need to know the model of your router/access point, though I'd probably go look at a forum where people talk about it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ersterfm:
Hi,

I am wondering, if anyone else having this problem...

My best available 2.4 ghz wifi channel is 13 (2472). If I select this channel my tab does not find the wifi anymore ("out of range"). All my other devices are running on channel 13. All other channels working.

Tried it with stock rom + stock kernel as well as with stock rom + latest UpInTheAir kernel, iron rom + UpInTheAir kernel, iron rom + stock kernel, factory reset, clean flash etc...

Can anyone confirm channel 13 is working on this tab?

[Verizon LG G3] Ariac Konrel:
I just got the phone today, and for the most part the phone has been great.

I got it on 11b, and was able to downgrade it to 10c. I rooted it with Stump, and used Bump! to install TWRP. I used Xposed framework, G3 Tweaksbox, Titanium Backup (a lot of bloatware disabled), and root explorer.

The phone is lag-free after some tweaks and all.

Though, one thing that has been bothering me is the overheating.

At first I did disabled Thermal Daemon Mitigation, then realize this was the reason for most of it.

Next, I reenabled it and it fixed the very hot phone (which caused my phone to constantly turn on and off. Like, it would unlock and turn off.)

I let the phone sit, and it got cold. I placed the battery back in, and used it like normal.

I plugged the charger that came in with the phone. When it was connected via PC, the wire did not heat up. I plugged it into the wall charger, and into the outlet. The adapter became VERY hot, as well as the ends of the cable.

I used my old charger (one I bought on Amazon, it's a pretty new and very good charger) and a different wall adapter. The wire and adapter are fine, yet the phone still runs warm.

I disabled most of the bloatware, and the only app I have that takes up a lot of up power and resources (though it's nothing to the G3) is Facebook.

Due to process of elimination, it cannot be the charger. So it's obviously the phone.

I knew it was prone to overheating (more than over flagship devices (apparently) at least), but is it supposed to run this warm when on WiFi? Seems abnormal.

It could be that I am not used to it.

TL;DR

The original phone charger runs VERY hot at the tips to the cable and the charging block does at well. I changed them.

(Even when not on the charger.)

The phone itself is generally warm, far more than most phones I've used.

Is my device defective, or is this normal for this device?
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
Some heat worse than others. Mine gets quite warm while playing Ingress, for example. The heatsink on the G3's is reportedly horrible generally.

It might be possible to disassemble the phone and apply heat sink paste or something to help dissipate heat better, but I am not sure.

Also, yours might really be defective.
[Verizon LG G3] d08speed3:
Load custom kernel undervolt a bit!
[Verizon LG G3] bpyazel:
You may have damaged something. Doing this allows the thermal sensors to reach 120 degrees Celsius and then the phone is supposed to shut down.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Mine gets warm, not hot, when charging. I do notice it charges fast, faster than other phones I've had, when connected to the outlet charger. The outlet charger I have is bigger than most that I've seen. I'm wondering if it's the fast charging that causes this?

Does anyone else think the G3 chargers faster when using a wall outlet than most other phones?
[Verizon LG G3] Ariac Konrel:
I don't know what happened, but the phone is fine now.

It gets warm, but I am going to ahead that is normal for this phone.

As for the outlet charger, I just use the USB cable to my PC and I haven't had any issues.

The first day I had it, it took forever to charge (didn't use the LG cable), but now it charges pretty fast and only gets warm!
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
That's good. Mine gets warm just charging, not hot as I stated. However, if plugged in and I start playing a game or something, then it gets warmer, but not scalding hot. Of course, that's if I'm playing the game for a long time.

I still think the wall charger must be charge it quicker than on the PC, but yes, I've also noticed hooked up to the PC it charges PDQ. I like that!
[Verizon LG G3] Ariac Konrel:
Had SkyDragon's custom kernel since I basically got the phone, so yeah.

It was thermal daemon being changed, reverting it fixed most of the issues.

The phone just gets warm, I guess.

Seems normal.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Zzan:
Go to Cingular's website and click on support select Cingular as the manufacturer, select 8125 as the phone and then follow the instructions for GPRS and MMS setup. Most custom roms don't have this information built into them and you have to re-enter or find the cab files to install. Though if you used an official Cingular ROM then you should already have these settings provided you let the carrier customization files run when it was first booted after the flash.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] knwlsh:
Search for the following two specifically:

P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard.cab for GPRS

cingular_mms_964.cab for MMS

Both of these are included in posts and should be easy to find

Since you flashed WM6, you may also need ARCSoft too.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Zzan:
I am sure there is/are cab file(s) around. I do know that if you go to the T-mobile site and follow there instructions there is a bad IP address in one of the steps.

it is something that contains a .050 as one of the octets. If you enter it as it is on their site it won't work. Change it to .50 and everything works fine.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyslexicfurby:
Hi,

So after fighting for hours, I managed to successfully use fastboot flash zip command to RUU the google play edition rom to my phone. However, the tutorial I followed didn't say I needed to match my CID and MID, so now I am stuck at the GPE fastboot bootloader. I can flash a custom recovery (I put TWRP on after the RUU was finished). However, since my phone is stuck at fastboot, I can't transfer any files to it using adb.

What I have: Fastboot, and TWRP recovery. Booting normally brings up Fastboot. Booting to recovery brings up TWRP.

My goal: Change my CID and MID so I can properly RUU the GPE rom to my phone. I think I can change the CID from fastboot but I don't think I can change MID from there.

What do you think? Am I going in the right direction? Did I make a wrong assumption?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellhawk741:
In fastboot, you should be able to change you CID running this command:

fastboot oem writecid GOOGL001

If your MID doesn't start with 0P6B, you need to open the RUU file with a zip explorer program and modify the android-info.txt file inside and add your MID to the list. Follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708589
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyslexicfurby:
Well I changed my CID and MID according to the thread (I edited the android-info.txt). However when I ran fastboot flash zip it failed with

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Any ideas? It worked before, which confuses me as to why it's not working now.

EDIT: Nevermind I am an idiot. FAILED (remote: not allowed) means you need to reboot into RUU mode by using fastboot oem rebootRUU. However now I am back to where I started.

I successfully RUUed the Google Play rom, but now my phone only boots to the bootloader and fastboot.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svassh:
I'm confused by flashing the RUU, if you have an ext SD card you can copy the image there rename it, boot and it will install itself. There is a rooted image available in the Android Development forum by GrafxNYC. I followed his instructions there and it worked perfectly.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellhawk741:
Assuming the RUU file is not an exe file, move it to your SD card and rename it to match your MID exactly and reboot into bootloader. It should flash without a problem.

Good afternoon guys

Now I am going to explain how to get transparent UI. Here is what we are going to need

1-rooted device with Android 4.4.2 and stock UI

2- Xposed app

3- G2 tweaks box (google play)

4- G3 tweaks box (google play)

Steps:

1- we install all these programs on the phone

2- enable the last 2 apps in xposed and reboot

3- open g2 tweaks box >> theme tweaks.

Enable the first option (Enable Theme mode)

4- in the same app >> open Quick settings panel >> Enable editing

All what we need to check is :

-Use panel color for back ground (makes quick settings button background transparent)

-Hide label button (Hides text on the quick settings icon)

CAUTION: Never Never Never check the option "Use AOSP Quick settings"

This will void your rom

Then we go to step 5

5- open G3 tweaks box >> Theme tweaks >> enable theming

And enable "Tinted bars Mod"

Then in Notification panel, Enable panel mod and check:

- Use panel color for all elements

- Hide notifications title bar

6- search for themes on google and install them

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/themes-apps/mod-g3-tweaksbox-themes-sense-6-theme-t2884927

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/mod-gwbt-theme-g3-tweaksbox-themes-t2852754

7- select your favorite theme from G3 tweaks box

8- finally reboot

Again, Never use aosp quick settings in G2 app as it will cause your rom to fail

Enjoy

[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] medo759:
You can change home screen size from 4x4 to any

5x4 works best

Just open G3 tweaks box >> LG Launcher tweaks >> Custom Grid size (Under subtitle of HOMESCREEN)

Then select 5x4

Also you can enable call recording and bigger caller picture in G3 Tweaks box from the option "Calls Tweaks"

If you find any other tweaks, please post here.

Grab a SIM card at StraightTalk.com and apply code STWB20OFF T Checkout. Choose free overnight shipping (Until 12/19) and after a little tax in most states comes out to $28. You can order multiple and it will apply a per-otem discount for each in the same order, so I bought 10 and got $200 off right there.

$28 for service monthly and extra $.99 SIM cards usually priced at 6.99!

A little Ebay magic and you could be paying $22/mo. Piggybacking any of the big 4.

Serious answer.

The Moto X has a lot of proprietary code for things like moto assist, active display, and the low power ir sensors. Additionally, there is no official source for lollipop like there is for Nexus devices...making it difficult for ROM builders.

The Moto X (2013) had very little in the terms custom ROMs as well. There will probably be a few ROMs in the future, but don't expect a ROM community like there are for Nexus devices, it just won't happen.

That being said, the Moto X is damn near perfect straight out of the box. I am an avid flasher, and I really don't feel like I'm missing out on much with the stock experience on the Moto X.

I'd love to get Xposed modules back for some minor cosmetic and functional tweaking, but otherwise this phone is close to perfect already.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Yeah, Xposed is a total game changer. That's one of the main reasons I'm keeping both my X and N5 on KK for the foreseeable future.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cb474:
People say that, but this is often true of Samsung devices and devices like the HTC One, but they still get development.

People also say that because the Moto X is such a close to stock device, there is a lack of interest in developing for it. I don't believe that either, because if that were true there would be no development for Nexus devices and, of course, those are the devices that get the most development.

I think this, in fact, is probably the one and only reason there is no development for Moto X devices. I don't know that much about what is needed to make a ROM, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but without the source for proprietary drivers for various hardware components in a device, you're kind of stuck.

What puzzles me is that Motorola promoted the "Pure Edition" as an unlocked edition of the 2nd Gen Moto X. But if they're not going to provide the source code needed for development, why did they bother? It's like a developers edition of a phone that's only good for non-developers.

I also don't really see how it benefits Motorola to block development. It's a relatively small portion of users who even bother with custom ROMs. But is the most enthusiastic portion of users, who can really help spread the buzz for a device. In addtion, custom ROMs often come up with smart ideas that later get adopted in stock ROMs. So their is a potential symbiotic relationship there. As it is, it just seems like Motorola alienates some of the biggest Android fans.

Yeah, it's nice. With Xposed, as others say, it can be modified in similar ways as ROMs. But there are still some Motorola built in elements that I'd rather not see, so it's not pure stock, as is often suggested.

My real hangup is that ROMs, like Cyanogen, are much better at stripping out some of the most egregious tracking code. Providing privacy enhancements (again not just at the user feature level, but in the underlying code). And generally eliminating things that don't serve users, but do serve marketers/manufacturers. That's more important to me than a lot of the user interface modifications found in ROMs.

So with Xposed you can get an user interface experience that's pretty similar to a lot of ROMs, but their are other benefits that may be missing.

If I could get an official version of Cyanogen for the 2nd Gen Moto X, it would be a near perfect device to me. As it is, I still hesitate. Of course, there's the extremely similar Nexus 6, but I'm not into that huge size.
