[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
Hi all,

I have tried to search for a similar problem in forums but have not found it or an answer.

My problem is that when I leave a known network (my home network) it remains off when I return. I wonder if this is because I have a setting incorrectly. I can't find anything even remotely that corresponds to not automatically finding my network again when I return home. It's annoying because it eats away at my cellular data (which despite being LTE) is blazingly slow.

I wonder if it is:

A) a setting that I am missing - what does triggering 'enable wi-fi verbose logging' in developer options do for instance - will that assist me?

or B) Something to do with me being in China behind the great fire wall. When I enter my home network, I get a 'Wi-Fi has no internet access - touch for options' notification that allows me to select 'Stay connected? Dont ask again yada yada' situation. The wifi works which is great, but it remains with an exclamation mark next to the wifi symbol in my status bar. I strongly feel that this is why the phone is not automatically able to relog into my network. Afterall, it does fine with automatic Bluetooth reconnection in my car.

Am I making sense? I know that a good fix would be to simply use my VPN through my router. Unfortunately though this option is closed to me, as I recently spent on upgrading my router and ... didn't realize the importance of a VPN capable router. My TL-WDR6500 is apparently not VPN able, so therefore it also means I cannot easily flash new roms as the phone hangs in unskippable limbo during the boot up process waiting for google service marriage or something. I can get around that at any rate, because I have found vpn ready networks close by. However, the fact remains that I think it is for this reason, my home network needs to be manually engaged each time I leave and come home. So, I am also wondering if there is some sort of noob-ish friendly network manager that can help me.

I guess it's not the end of the world for me, but it would make my phone experience top shelf if I could easily sort it out. Any assistance or thoughts would be appreciated. Surely, I can't be the only one living in mainland China using a nexus with these difficulties, right?

Cheers.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
Ok. Seems that no one knows or is able to assist.

I have therefore thought about it and downloaded macrodroid and set up a couple of macros to connect WiFi networks (one for work and one for home) when they appear. Not sure what this will do to battery life and whether it will even fix the actual problem, but I guess I'll find out when I go walk the dog in a little while (literally, not figuratively).

Maybe this post might be of help to someone else stuck behind the great fire wall of China...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
balls... Macrodroid solve didn't work... Anyone? Please?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
Solution 1 (does not require root):

1. Reboot phone and wait until Wifi is connected

2. Go to Settings and create a new user

3. Continue with user setup until you see "checking connection"

4. As soon as you see "checking connection", switch off your phone

5. Switch on your phone again

6. Toggle Wifi, and the exclamation mark should disappear quickly

7. You may optionally remove the new user you just created
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
This requires root, but if your problem is only about WiFi, then this will definitely work.

Just go to Terminal Emulator then type commands:

su

settings put global captive_portal_server g.cn

This will set the captive portal server to one we can use behind the Great Firewall, thus correcting the connection detection. After you toggle WiFi off and on you will no longer see the exclamation mark and WiFi will not prevent itself from connecting due to "no internet connection".

Oh, and greetings from Beijing :)

I am a real noob. Ty for your time and thank you for your post - I was starting to feel like I was delving into a shakespearean monologue of self reflection and self help/doubt.

The first nonroot method worked, but I have also implemented your command work around. I have removed macro too. I wonder if now I can flash roms without suffering the no connection problem - or do I need to reset the command prompt thing each time I flash?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
Each ROM you flash you need to type the command.

Just a matter of installing an app and typing a bit, and the terminal app can be kept for later use (handy when troubleshooting), not so bothersome isn't it?

I am using miui 7 on my mi4i. The camera app suddenly stops showing the live filters gallery and most of the manual mode settings viz manual focus, exposure control, etc. I have lots of settings and data in my phone and so avoiding wiping cache and data. Is there a workaround so that i can get back those options without wiping data or cache or such?

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wizahh101:
So my Kindle Fire HD 7(2012) is bricked after trying to factory reset CM12.1. I took some advice and tried to run some ADB commands and then ADB says device unauthorized. Since my Kindle is stuck at the TWRP boot screen I cannot accept the RSA key. What should I do?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
Reboot into TWRP, select Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, and then check all the boxes and swipe to wipe. At this point, all your system, data, and cache partitions will be completely empty, so you will need to reboot into TWRP again (ignore the warnings about not having an OS installed or root), copy a ROM zip from your PC to the kindle's internal storage, and flash it. Once you have it flashed, you'll be starting with a clean state (much like a factory reset), so you should have the ability to set up the device again once the ROM fully boots and get ADB to work.

The machine often can't identify the sim card,it shows the sim card is lost.

If i turn off the phone and then turn on again,sometimes the machine show

the message "The Gsm radio has crashed.reboot in 30 seconds."

so it reboot itself but doesn't work!!!:confused: :confused: :confused:

try to clean up your sim card.

if it still, try to hard reset.

if it still not work try ROM upgrade / other ROM
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] charlie_hwang:
change a new one sim card is the only way out!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] jacksongarden:
i have already done these all!!!

and also changed a sim card.still
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] StevePritchard:
If you have done all of that, then it sounds like a hardware fault to me. I assume you have tried cleaning the contacts on the Uni itself? Failing that, it sounds like you need to find a service centre.

Cheers,

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] indrastrid:
yea, once i have the same problem like you.

I give my uni back to dealer, try to buy uni from another one, IT WORK! :D :D :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] jacksongarden:
.....i bought it one year ago....how can i....

i think many guys have the same problem too.is that something about the

phone lock?the incomplete wm6 system brings out the problem?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] indrastrid:
have you try downgrade, back to WM5?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] jacksongarden:
ok,i will try it
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] jacksongarden:
thx everyone!!!!

it works now!!!

i downgrade to wm5,but still.

then i use a rubber to rub the sim card metal.

then it work!!!!and doesn't lose again!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] ethan113:
Yeah i`ve got the same problem, and even I lost the phone signal, I tested several wm6 roms but finally I downgraded back to wm5 and nothing works fine therefore i think you'll have the same problem, I know that a lot of people have the same problem and I'am almost sure that it's a hardware failure of the phone in the uni, good luck!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] ethan113:
yeah, I'am suprise,but it could be a good idead, i'm gonna take my rubber.... and .... in the next post

[Moto G 2015 General] lexer98:
I just found something curious on my Moto G 2015, when the Lux sensor is exposed directly to the sunlight the screen refuse to wake up (with Auto brightness enabled). The same thing happens with the Moto G 2014 WHITE of my coworker.

So i tried to replicate this in my home with a torch, and I found when the torch is really close to the phone the front part of the phone is backlit (Sorry if the term is incorrect), so probably this is causing that the lux sensor fails.
[Moto G 2015 General] sudipt123:
so this isn't replicated in the black model?
[Moto G 2015 General] Techguy18:
I don't know whether it has anything to do with color or the software, but I have the same problem. The display gets set to min brightness in bright sun. Turning the display on/off doesnt help too. Gotta put it in my pocket and take it out., it works sometimes.

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

Could you explain your torch experiment? How does the color of the body affect it?
[Moto G 2015 General] GamerChamp99:
It doesn't behave that way on the Black Moto G 2015.

I have the 2 Gig variant and I've used it countless times in the sun and I've also tried your torch test and it still behaved fine.

I put the torch(switched on) over the LUX sensor and replicated the sunlight but still it behaved the same.

When adaptive brightness is on, it might take some time for the Moto G to adjust its brightness according to the light outside but it does that almost instantly.

It could be a problem with the White variant.
[Moto G 2015 General] lexer98:
The white model doesn't block the light on the frontal area, so this probably is causing the lux sensor fails. About the "experiment", you need a really powerful light to make the lux sensor fails like a flash from a phone, my torch for example doesn't make the sensor go to 65535.

I need to try a frontal skin like a d-brand too see if fix the problem

https://vid.me/BhYE

With the Squid Custom kernel the problem is even worse .... in my case
[Moto G 2015 General] hekomat:
No such problems here, I did the torch experiment with the led flash of my 1st gen moto g, and it's behaving as it should:)
[Moto G 2015 General] Techguy18:
Wait a minute,

when bright light shines on the lux sensor, it pumps up the brightness.

If the body is white and is leaking light, shouldn't it allow more light to reach the lux sensor and in turn turn the screen brighter?

Btw the lux sensor is located near the front camera with the proximity sensor.
[Moto G 2015 General] lexer98:
IDK .. because the sensor works perfect when the phone is unlocked. But is really curious that only happens with the White version.

Maybe a different "calibration" is needed for the white version or the light coming from the side is causing misreads on the sensor

My dual Sim 5.0 phone appears to turn off data when it is idle i..e receive calls,whatsapp messages etc. however as soon as I make a call I can receive incoming calls.

The messages the callers receive is as if the phone is off -" the caller you are trying to reach is unavailabe"

Has anyone had this experience?

Hello,

After update my nexus to 6.0.1, I encountered a problem level of my battery (3000/4000%).

This problem is with "boot.img" image modified for the root.

I flashed the new version... but now My nexus 6 is not rooted.

we have a new solution for the root my nexus ?

Thanks !
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOSTALGIA:
flash a custom kernel
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beta1204:
Ok, thank you for your answers !

I have to flash the "boot.img" image modified, Super SU and after custom kernel?

The kernel will fix the problem level of my battery ?

Could you break that down for me ?

kernel advise ?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOSTALGIA:
if i were you, i would flash a custom rom instead, then a custom kernel.. which is simplier
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beta1204:
I agree but I do not have time to completely reinstall my phone.

I wished for just root my nexus.

can you confirm this procedure with the custom kernel ?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NOSTALGIA:
well.. im with a stock rom.. and never had battery percentage problems.. u can try and then u can report back..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beta1204:
Ok, thank you anyway !

To be honest, if you dont have the time for that simple thing then you really shouldnt mess with your device as things can go wrong that will take far more time to fix that the few min it takes to restore.

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaf_96:
Hi guys,

I am facing a lot of difficulty in trying to mount a samba share on the shield TV (16gb model).

It's freshly rooted with busybox, supersu, se linux mode and patched cifs manager.

No matter how I try to mount it, via terminal or via the patched CIFSManager, I always get an error saying "cannot access a needed shared library".

su --mount-master -c busybox mount -o username=shaf,password=android,rw,noperm,iocharset=utf8 -t cifs //192.168.1.1/android /data/media/0/android

The network folder is perfectly accessible through ES File explorer & I've even tried formatting the network drive as ext4.

I have checked in proc/ and the cifs files are there but I'm not sure if I need to load a cifs.ko kernel module, I assumed it was loaded.

I would be very grateful if someone could help me out here and point me in the right direction.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banderos101:
Similar situation

Have shield as the server (3.0 usb edit: with a connected usb 3.0 harddrive)

edit: ive not found a suitable server app yet

I always assumed ciffs manager/mount manager worked only on jellybean and below......i assume the patched cifs app changes this.

In my search for alternatives, this ones the closest ive seen thats most recent and promissing, but have not managed to get it working, you seem like you might understand it better then i

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unvaluablespace:
hey guys. im not much on networking. trying to figure it all out myself, but i found this app awhile back called servers ultimate pro.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.serversultimatepro

they do have a 7 day trial to test things out but through this app i was able to create a smb/cifs server with windows 10 being able to map it as a network drive. At least on windows 10, i had to google and eventually found a few registry tweaks to make windows actually see it.

Currently my issue now is speed transfer isnt all that fast. its usable for my needs, but i average about 5-10MBps during transfer with an external usb 3.0 HDD plugged into the shield tv, transferring files over the network between my windows 10 machine. That is an issue im currently working on fixing, but i was at least able to create a working server with this app. The authors have a forum on xda as well but its looking more and more that it might become abandoned (servers ultimate pro) as the author(s) havent been responding to forum questions or even emails.

either way, just thought id let you guys know. :)
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banderos101:
Ive actually tried that one amongst others, was one of the best tested at the time, even had, if i recall correctly, tasker support which is a must, but my shield for all intense and purposes, will be free of the google eco system, hence why i wont/cant have apps that require license check.......i dont like the artificial dependancy on other apps/services such as google services

On the lookout, hopefully, for an open source alternative with good tasker support.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaf_96:
Hey thanks buddy,

I think I had a look at that before but ignored it temporarily as I wanted to fix mounting samba shares first thereafter focus on making a script so it mounts automatically on boot but I don't see a problem with skipping straight to using the script.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to check/test the firetv script until next weekend, what problem do you have when trying to use the script?

I'm tempted to install the full android version with a tv style home launcher and check if I can connect to samba shares as this is driving me nuts lol.

Check out the thread 'nVidia Shield Android TV - Post your home screen' and see andrewthecoder's post, need to ask him if he's able to mount remote samba shares.

BTW guys, I think there's some confusion, my intention is to use the shield tv as a client, not to host a samba server lol.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banderos101:
Yeah sorry, i did actually realise you were talking client side, i went slightly offtopic with server side talk :D

Honestly, i didnt really put much effort into it, just quickly tried to see if it worked first, second, third try before giving up, waiting on more info on the xda thread, or maybe even an app to do this more simply, or an alternative working method.........im playing the, keep my ears to the ground, waiting game

Plus, ive not found any confirmation on which android samba servers are confirmed working for this kind of mount, so i have the worry, that the script may work, but fail on a non standard samba server.........again, waiting on confirmation on what works and hopefully a guide.........looking it up every now and again
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaf_96:
Haha no worries man, yes I'll try messing with that coming this Friday evening, did you use script manager, SManager?

Ah damn I did not even know there's different types of samba servers! ?

Lool I'm the complete opposite, too impatient to wait, that's why I'm really considering installing the full android version. It would be such a delight to have the dreamcast and gamecube roms running of the NAS drive as well as 4K files in the future.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] banderos101:
I used SManager

Sorry, what i meant was, that there is more then one samba server app for android.........all at various levels of development

Yep, i cant wait till i can unify network storage on android myself........one of the reasons i bought the shield.......assuming a solution ever decides to be polite........and show up :D
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gumbi2400:
For mine I found that the utf8 bit was throwing it off. I removed that and added sec=ntlm and that worked for me. The only downside is apps can read from it but can't seem to write to it. Give it a go and see if that helps though.
