Hi,

I only bought the P8000 last week and observed this problem at home when I connected the P8000 to my WiFi network consisting of three access points on different floors of my house using the same SSID. The phone could not receive from or sent data to the internet after I changed the floor and the phone connected to the access point on that specific floor.

After changing the SSID of two of those access points and every access point using its own SSID now the problem seems to have gone. I don't have it anymore for three days now.
[Elephone P8000] Brewn:
Hi,

while I have the same setup at home and at work (multiple access points with the same SSID) it is no option to change that setup. It's also a very common setup at public places.

At least this seems to narrow the problem down to a faulty implementation of the wifi drivers. Is anybody capable of looking at the sources or give me a pointer to the driver sources?

EDIT: Check out the app WiFi Roaming Fix - it is supposed to fix problems with many APs having the same SSID. I am trying it right now.

EDIT 2: OK, seems to work. The app crashes sometimes but does it's job. I have not been offline in the last 4 hours.
[Elephone P8000] tiltkoko83:
can you guys test this kernel version?

Changed to different wifi drivers ++

Works with 909 rom (eragon)

Is there any changes?

sorry english (or norwegian) only
[Elephone P8000] Brewn:
For me this kernel solves the issue. Great work!
[Elephone P8000] tezzla:
I have the problem after 30-60min the wifi signal is normal/strong but there is no dataflow at all. It only helps to restart the router. I have no problems with other wlan devices. the problem is the same on two p8000. I dont want to install any kernel or roms because of warranty.. i can send the phones back 14 days. If there are no official solution i need to refund them =(
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Please could you modify wifi in the latest kernel stock ROM 20151105?

Or modify wifi in visi0nary's kernel - http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/orig-development/kernel-visi0narys-kernel-t3226081

I am using it, is excellent, but would like to improve wi-fi.

Thanks.

ok... so i'm a newbie, but i have the same problem with my p8000.

Can you explain how to apply that kernel version?

currently i have 3.10.65 kernel version, and custom build version 20151105..
[Elephone P8000] Cedriccar:

I have the exact same wifi issue on the elephone P6000 and I am trying to fix it for months...

Thanks!

Can you please do the same wifi adaptations in the latest core of the stock ROM 20151105?

Thanks.
[Elephone P8000] charliepie:
Can you guys try the tiltkernel 1.5wifi to see if that helps or like me try the WiFi roaming fix app which was mentioned over on that thread and it seems to be better for me than the WiFi fixer(donate) app which I had been using for a while. I can't use that kernel as dt2w doesn't work for me unfortunately.
[Elephone P8000] BlueFlame4:
Looks like [MENTION=6899644]tiltkoko83[/MENTION]s fix works! If it can pass my tests I'll merge it into my kernel upstream.

Thanks tiltkoko83 :)
[Elephone P8000] blahmartinblah:
I think I've noticed this on my P6000 Pro too.

Can anyone give steps to prove the bug exists?
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Hi tiltkoko83,

I've already written that latest stock ROM "20151105" (and earlier versions also) has serious Wifi performance problem. Now I have made a comparison phones: Elephone P8000 and Lenovo P770 - the same place, the same router, only one phone connected to router in the same time. Result: Elephone P8000 is 5 times slower than the old phone Lenovo P770. It occurs in areas with poor Wi-Fi signal.

Could you make for us Wifi modifications for latest kernel 20151105 please? Thanks.

[Elephone P8000] pitrus-:
Hi,

Apparently this is the Wifi/Bluetooth/GPS antenna in the P8000 mobile, not that large if you ask me, and maybe that's one of the reasons behind poor wifi performance.

Many thanks - I am waiting for the new kernel. I hope that will come soon. :)

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

Hi, how to do it:

- you must have ROOTed phone - instructions here: http://www.needrom.com/download/philz-recovery-p8000/

- rename "tiltkernel_v1.5wifi.img" to "boot.img", then save file to SD card in phone

- run apk Flashify (from Google Play), then choose "Flash" option, then "Boot image", then "File Explorer", select the file "boot.img" (from SD card) and click "YUP!"

- Performs the burn file, then restart your phone

- Done

Warning: this kernel can by used only for stock kernel 20150909! Not for newer versions.!

[Elephone P8000] alitaker:
Hi, sorry but I do not have firmware 20150909, so can't test the fix.

My two cents are that it seems it's not a wifi problem. I have the exact same problems as you, but have noticed that, when internet stops working, I can still connect to my home web server, which happens to have only an ip (no dns).

It seems to me it's a resolution problem, also because websites that are still in cache would load, but websites that ar not in the dns cache anymore, do not load.

Can you make some tests and confirm this?
[Elephone P8000] pitrus-:
Make sense, I to have been experiencing DNS resolving problems both with wifi and also with wireless hotspot. The solution to fix surfing using hotspot is to change the DNS server on the computer from the phones DNS to Google DNS or some other open DNS solution, which means it's the DNS service in the phone that crashes or fail to resolve from time to time.
[Elephone P8000] alitaker:
That's exactly what I was thinking.

I always use reliable dns servers, like google, opendns or internal dns servers and have never been experiencing such problems with my old MTK Android 4.2.2 phone.

With P8000 the quickest thing to do is disable and reanable wifi, then it starts working again...
[Elephone P8000] charliepie:
It's such a hassle and a bore to off/on the WiFi just to get it working again but I have found the WiFi roaming fix app helps a little bit.
[Elephone P8000] bluiis48:
Just installed Eragon 6.5.1 and checked WiFi with Ookla speedtest - 26.5 megabitson a 25 megabit fiber connection with streaming music running on two other devices. Latest Eragon seems to give great results with the wireless. Ipv 6 is disabled, no special DNS or network settings just dhcp connection.
[Elephone P8000] charliepie:
Good to hear that, I'll try a full wipe and flash v6.5.1 to see how I get on:)
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Finally I found a solution to poor performance WiFi on stock ROM 20151105 (and previous versions also). I found it on the Russian debate. It needs to install modem from stock ROM 20150725.

Download: http://uloz.to/xQdsahJt/modem-mt6753-s00-moly-lr9-w1444-md-lwtg-mp-v16-p5-zip

(to change page language click on UK flag in right-up corner)

Installation:

- from TWRP

- install modem ZIP file

- then click "Wipe Cache/Dalvik" and "Restart phone" (first start will be a little longer)

- It is all

- Enjoy much better WiFi performace - See the comparison results in figures.

On left side is WiFi on stock ROM 20151105, on the right is the same ROM after install modem from stock ROM 20150725.

[IMG="Bad and better WiFi performance"]http://androidforum.cz/download/file.php?id=19789[/IMG]

If you will use visionary kernel, the correct installation order is:

1. stock ROM 20151105, 2. visionary kernel 1.6.1, 3. install modem driver

BTW: Eragorn ROM uses the same modem... :)
[Elephone P8000] cristian2k:
I just bought the P8000 with the stock rom 20150909 and the speed test reports 4mbps download and 30mbps upload in a connection 300mbps/30mbps. I can also consistently get 60mbps/30mbps with other wifi devices.

So I assume there is some sort of problem with the download, not hardware related.

I don't want to mess with the firmware right now because I just set up everything, I read the update breaks things from time to time and 4mbps download is not that bad after all but I will surely try the mentioned solution soon.
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
At a place with good signal I reached speed 50Mbps. Try that modem.
[Elephone P8000] Brewn:
It's certainly nice to have higher throughput, but it still does not solve the problem of the random "no throughput at all".
[Elephone P8000] aprovis83:
i have the same issue. and my wifif drops out very often, need to reconnect it to make it work again
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Did you try modem 20150725?
[Elephone P8000] aprovis83:
no. where can i find it ? do you have a download link for me?
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Link is in my previous post here - > 7 posts back.

There are installation instructions also.
[Elephone P8000] aprovis83:
thank you. found it :) it works
[Elephone P8000] Brewn:
OK, I have tried this modem as well and it seems to work much better now, even better than tilt kernel with wifi fix. I am on the latest Eragon and visionary's Kernel now and will keep monitoring wifi performance...

UPDATE: After two days without Wifi-troubles I dare to say that this modem indeed solves the wifi-problems.
[Elephone P8000] htc s740:
Hi people, i have also P8000 and i wonder if i can follow the instruction to update if i have Elephone_P8000_20151203193606? I receive this update before two days, and i accepted it with hope for a nice fix for the modem, but maybe elephone manufacturers dont read these forums :)
[Elephone P8000] Gerrit507:
I'm 20151203 and the problem still exists. I only get about 3.5Mbit/s Download, with other devices I get 60Mbit/s or even over 100 Mbit/s. The reception is fine only the speed is terrible. The modem did not fix it.

For this subject are several threads, but one question.

Is it possible to just run the RUU from stock and flash spash screen?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You can

possibly

just RUU back to Sense.

But some folks have had to flash the Sense firmware,

then

RUU.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Petert87:
Possibly? Not for sure? I read that you first have to restore nandroid before run ruu.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Not needed, a nandroid does nothing but change the running software. It doesn't alter partitions or anything.

A ruu takes care of everything. The only thing that might be needed is indeed to flash the firmware first before the ruu. But that's a try and find out.

Nothing bad happens. If the ruu doesn't do the job the first time you know you need to flash the firmware (twice....always twice) and then RUU again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Petert87:
OK bedankt! Just want to know, not for now but in the future when M comes to M8. No problem to flash firmware
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Folks have had varying results. Some have been able to just run the RUU to get back to Sense. For others, the RUU fails, and they have to flash the Lollipop Sense firmware first, then the RUU runs properly.

Hi Guys

Many of you might be facing issues with connecting to mobile data on lollypop Rom,

I too faced the same issue so I installed AOSP Rom by agent47 link

You might have also tried using this but many failed to connect to data.

So I will tell you the procedure to connect to data.

1. Go to Sim Card Settings and Select your sim for Data [Sim 2 Recommended]

2. Now Go to Network Settings and Create an APN Profile for the your sim and activate Sim.

3. Now pull down notification bar and activate data. (you will see no data conection)

4. So go to network settings and switch the sim from 3g to 2g and vice versa untill the sim which you are using for data goes on 2g

5. Remember that if you are using data on sim2 then at first sim2 should be on 3g network so that when you will switch the sim1 network, sim 2 will automatically switch to 2g.

6. Now turn data on/off bu pulling down the notification bar.

7. And see...mobile data working :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsnitins:
5. Update your Apps Over WiFi Only

Many apps in Google play store get unnecessary updates by unnecessary i mean they are meant to fix bugs only, and have you noticed how many times all your apps were auto-updated without your consent, spending all them precious GBs, so wasting your finite date over useless updates is not a great idea. To disable Auto-Update you just need to open the Google Play Store and tap on the side tray button, click on Settings option and then select the “Auto-update apps” and select Auto-update apps over WiFi only.

4. Turn On Data Compression on Google Chrome

Most of us are Android users, coz this process is only for Android Users. And if you are an Android user you are also likely Chrome users. Most of us Don’t know that Chrome supports a feature that can reduce data consumption, Google states this feature should save you about 50% in data, without even feeling any difference. All you need to do is open Chrome and hit the menu button and select Settings, click Data Saver and then toggle the option and it done.

3. Cache Everything You Can

Like Google Maps and Google Play Music allow for storing data locally and many other apps. Make sure to save as many as caches and data you can while you are on a WiFi network. Afterwards you can enjoy your saved data without wasted Precious Mobile Data.

2. Avoid Online Streaming

The most awesome Things over the internet consume more data, this includes streaming videos and music, as well as looking through high quality images or GIF files. Try to avoid this kind of consumption as much as possible if you really want to save your mobile data. And if you need to watch it, make sure you change the settings and set quality at lower rates.

1. Restrict Background Data

Do you know that when your phone is not in use some apps spend your too much data. the feature we about to tell is actually one of the greatest features on Android. Background data allows apps to keep everything updated which leads to a great amount of Data wastage. so here is what you can do, Go into Settings > Data Usage and select Restrict Data for the apps that consume large amount of data and dont worry you can undo this by the same method.
[ONE General] evronetwork:
I have report on Jira the following issue.

The led in our OnePlus One doesn't lit when the phone is turned off and we try to charge it, it will affect most if not 100% OnePlus One user, the bug is reported by me using their official rom but happens almost in every rom I've tested(radio issue if you ask me).

Check it here: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-4187

The assigned person on this actually told me to stay quite about this and I'm like why??? and to be exact and not lying about it, he said:

" I'm not going to advertise the issue (and I would rather you not either)"

. They want to hide this for some reason.

Some might say but why charge it while it's turned off? well if you are in a hurry every juice is needed, also why not have a "proper" phone? even Chinese no-name brands have this, it's basic function.

Please spread this and make an upvote so this would be solved asap(sure it's not life threating issue but surely I'd like to have it because why not?)
[ONE General] indesisiv:
Can't say I have ever turned my phone off to charge it. Nor can I be bothered to even to test it.

I don't really see the issue, if you are turning it off to quick charge then you are in a rush and not fully charging it anyway.

Won;t the LED draw power and slow down charging ;) *jk*

Just out of interest, does the power drain on startup of the phone not offset the tiny amount of power saved that the phone would be using when in deep sleep
[ONE General] evronetwork:
If you plug the cable how would you know it's actually charging? ..to verify you need to press the power button once to check the battery level in the screen. People don't mind have problematic devices fine by me they deserve this

Me on the other hand? why not fix this, even if I rarely use it ..it's not rocket science and it was working when I got the device in the first place

P.S. "Just out of interest, does the power drain on startup of the phone not offset the tiny amount of power saved that the phone would be using when in deep sleep" Lets say you have 30 minutes to spend and you need to leave ASAP, turning off the phone will charge more than having the phone turned on in "deep sleep" ..phone still uses energy and some apps do run in the backround that you probably forget to close(we're only humans)

Hi :)

I installed yesterday unofficial CM 12.1 on my A2001 OPT [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3185511) and first impression for now is : WOW, what a fast device finally (when you don't have Oxygen OS on it) !

That said, i experience some bugs and i will use this thread to report them.

This thread last update on 09/30

Note : I didn't test several last builds. I can't actually. I will soon but for now I can't flash back CM ROM for banking reason (an app on Oxygen that allows me to authenticate myself to my bank account).

Last [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] build : 09/29 => DOWNLOAD

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] build changelog : LINK

Issues

LED notification

Bugged i think : i set some colors for several apps, and the colors are wrong, and the frequency of blinking too. So I assume there is something going on with the LED

Snapchat

Lagging HARD-CORE. Like unusable. I had to enforce the shutdown of the device (it was not responding anymore). That happens at the launch of the app, not on a particular action

Home button

Sensitive button is not quite responsive when the phone is in standbye mode. I often have to retry like 3-4 times to wake up the phone, or push the lock button which work well. I don't talk about fingerprint, i already read it's planned or at least devs know about it (Android M should bring us some answers)

Airplane mode

When the phone goes out of airplane mode, no SIM found anymore. Have to reboot the device to see the SIM again

Network

Sometimes, i wake-up the phone and it is on limited (" ! " symbol) network mode. Wifi is disabled, network is found, but no data whereas i was in LTE 5min before, at the same place. The only way to recover my data service is to reboot since i can't put airplane mode (bugged, see precedent bullet-point)

Call

When a call is incoming, the phone is ringing but the screen doesn't wake up.

During a call, switching ON the speakers doesn't work : it switchs off the ear-speaker, but no sound comes from external speakers

Missing features

Double-tap on screen should wake it up

I will update this post if I find some new issues.

Thx for your work guys, it's awesome.
