Slow wi-fi speeds? - Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development

So I recently got CM6 on my Touch Pro and right now I'm using the market and it's downloading at an appallingly slow rate D: It's roughly 10KB/s or perhaps slower. Did I do anything wrong here? :<

Nope. Wifi just sucks. It's always one of the reasons why Android always locks up for me, actually.

*crai*
So, wifi on Android just sucks? :< It's better on WinMo though, which I don't really get.
Since wifi is painfully slow on Android, how else would I get applications on it? A much faster method xD

Wifi seems fine for me... Faster than 3g, which is all I really ask for when using it...

I take it you're using a TP too >.< Whaiii *cries*

I used to. RAPH800, wifi was definitely faster than 3g. I'm on a RHOD now tho.

Maybe because you're not using a RAPH. A search in the thread would show that other people have the problem, and not just me lol...

i haven't noticed any wifi issues with the builds. always faster than 3g for me.

I said I used a RAPH previously... I've only had the RHOD for about a month now, had a RAPH for 2 years before that. So I'm not just shooting off the hip assuming... I ran XDAndroid on my RAPH for a loooooong time.

Well uhm, I'm using a Touch Pro but that's as far as I know. Perhaps I used a wrong startup? What would I use instead?

nothing there will make a difference.
do a test. using the regular browser (not opera or anything) goto mobilespeedtest.com or speedtest.net and do a test and see what it tells you. would help if you also have a computer on the same router to test against.
you can test 3g and wifi and your computer to see the differences in speed.

And so did I. I could make a video demonstrating how unstable the wifi/radio is, lol. I've had far too frequent crashes for someone to tell me that it's "stable" .
EDIT: Here's some other people reporting the problem.

I have had the same issue multiple times. I find it happens more when I am travelling over a distance and the radio has to find new towers to connect to all the time.
Battery Drain on new kernel is great for me too, just wish the mic in-call worked, at the moment I am not using Android because of it :-(

Annndd.. there's probably a good chance this will get ignored because "it works for me".

Perhaps wifi is unstable on the 110, but I seriously doubt it. Besides, that dude is talking about the radio finding new towers, what does that have to do with wifi?
I find the radio is unstable as well. I actually thought it was just a CDMA thing. I thought we were talking about slow wifi speeds tho... Now I'm just confused.

i think you are starting to get confused here. are we still talking about wifi or have we moved on to 3g now?
honestly almost nothing here is truely stable. our ril still needs alot of work and that is what talks with the towers.
wifi however shouldn't have any real issues. wifi is working on every model of the supported devices and as you can see, this is the first thread regarding wifi issues.
the wifi is supported by the kernel. kernel changes shouldn't make a difference as the wifi drivers haven't changed. however the devs are trying to get hopspot support working which may impact wifi. if you are having issues, report a bug.

It's both wifi and 3G that's unstable for me. Anytime I use the internet through either method, the phone has weird issues. It's easily reproduced.

what type of issues? system rebooting into android? rebooting into winmo? force closes? radio crashes?
i do not want to blame the device but my g/f who just gave me her diamond had alot of issues running xdandoird. come to find out her phone had issues in general and had nothing to do with xdandroid.
this may or may not be a similar issue to your. that will be for you to let us know.
if you have the time, rename your data.img to data.img.bak and launch haret.exe. it will build a new data.img and from there run the same basic tasks that cause issues for you now. since our build is still in the "building it" stage, some apps will cause issues without you noticing. the only real way to tell if an issue is the system or if it is an installed app is to test it with a clean system to see how things come out. this doesn't always solve the problem and if it does not let us know.
your said you have a raph110, Stinebd who is one of the main developers on this project has a raph110 so if there are any real issues with xdandroid and that device, it will be known. as such i have not heard from him with any real stability issues using the radio or the wifi (i believe he no longer has service on the device however).
if your one of the luck cdma users there are more issues as there are no real devs working on the cdma side of things for our devices. there are alot of radio stability issues as the ril is not complete and is a hacked hack version of the gsm radio made to work on the cdma network.
hope this makes sense.

Sowwy D: Was moving and getting new ISP's. Horrible wait :<
Anywho, for all those going "It works for me" Yeah well... It doesn't. I'm getting 14mbps wireless, but on the phone I'm getting 84kbps which is... Odd. I'm currently using the SuperFroyo port. I've had experience with the xdandroid version and it's wi-fi was actually pretty good compared to this. Kernels perhaps?

Android on touch pro 2 WIfi not working

I have an unsecured network and wifi still isnt working i even tried the builds i used beforeand wifi stil isnt working? I tried Eclair 2.1 froyo still wont work. it scans and says unable to scasn and turns the wifi off by itself. it worked on my other touch pro 2! any ideas?
same ****
got the same problem i had it on the 2.1 builds and on the froyo builds but seems when somebody mention it nobody takes it seriously...just have to wait till the next build...!
You need to update zimage to the latest and as long as WiFi is not WEP encrypted, it should work.
That is really odd. Wifi works perfect for me in froyo with a secured network. Try the new 2.2 froyo build in the first sticky.

Where I live I run wpa2 but there's wep, wpa and unsecured networks available. I get the same problem with the various flavours even after uninstalling, deleting all content and reinstalling.
Bit of a wind up to read that it's a problem with wep.
I would have to say this is one of the worst issues I have found yet with android. Others who have the same phone don't have this issue. but I do. WiFi just doesn't work on my device. I have all the latest releases. Hell, I have been able to use every feature meant for rhodium but WiFi. It is a persistant issue with my device.
I even tried repartitioning my sdcard to see if that helps. but no luck. The last release I was able to use Wifi with was the first release of the sense ui 2.1
When I mention this on IRC, I am pretty much ignored, People think it is because I don't know what I am doing. I beg to differ. I have been able to offer valid advice and solutions for most of the questions i come across.
My device is a T-MO TP2, with a 4gb sdcard. and colored send and end buttons.
Help Please.
Last time I checked Rhobuntu wifi worked ok
I'm having the same issue as well..
It will scan and see my network(secured with WEP) and let me enter my login info but after that it just scans and dosen't connect.
If I have to turn my WEP off I want worry about Android cause theres too many people around here that like to piggy back and I'm not paying for them to use mt internet as well.
I'm using the [MUG] Rhod.2.2.BLAZN.072110 if that helps.
I had another touchpro2 that got lost but wifi worked perfectly! WHEN I TRY TO UPGRADE ROOTFS AND ZIMAGE ANDROID STOPS WORKING!!!It boots goes to the lock screen and vibrates and restarts into windows mobile!

Possible fixes for issue include's deleting your data.img located in your andboot folder of the Sdcard and deleting your cache folder usually located (If I'm not mistaken) on the root of the SDcard.
If the above method does not work then you may want to try a fresh install by deleting all android related files or reformatting your SDCard but I'm sure this will do the trick. I've had that issue before.

You don't really have to. If your Router supports it then switch the encryption type to WPA instead of WEP. WPA encryption has been reported to somehow work with this build.

Edit..changexd the wifi from wep to wpa/psk and all is good.just wanna fix the sound,keyboard backlight and the keyboard buttons.
Other then that I love it.

SO drop from WEP to WPA?? I'll try that and post back..Thanks mna.
I really like Android but I HAVE to have WiFi..Theres really no way around that and since I couldn't get it to work...I kept using WinMo.
Should I delete my SD card and put everything back on??
Unfortuantly you tricks didnt work (all of them ) thanks for the help. DOES ANYBODY ELSE KNOW WHATS GOING ONNNNN! EVOLOPERS PLEASE FIXX It!!!
My wifi-button is grey. It is not possible, to start wifi.
How can i fix this? In an older android-version (with sense) it was running.
Is there an example for wifi in the startup.txt. I can read english only very slow and i did not find it in the 756 sites of the froyo-thread.
okay so with a format of the sd card and the installation of the latest releases of android from the sticky and the newest kernals etc.. no go... has anyone who has had issues found a way to get wifi working on their phone?
I too think the last time my phone worked was months and months ago. I would only really play with android every once and a while so I really dont remember.

Uh... Ok? You HAVE to have wifi. We get it. I've also heard WEP doesn't work, besides it's not even secure... you're not really dropping from WEP to WPA, you're upgrading from WEP to WPA buddy

Wow... Please don't scream at the devs to fix something that already works. It's probably something you're doing...
I would definitely try updating to the newest everything. You say it reboots into WinMo every time - try different combinations of files. I pretty much always run 'bleeding edge' tho, and it's always worked out for me... Perhaps you're not replacing all the files correctly...?
Also... I did see one post from a dev that's going to be discouraging... They said that "some" of the TMobile TP2's just don't work with wifi. I don't think they know why, because if wifi works for the devices devs have, then it's very hard to troubleshoot your problem. It also seems to be effecting a small slice of TMobile TP2's, if that's any consolation. Ditch the teenage wireless company

I wonder if it's a radio thing... It's just odd that only some are effected. Has there been any correlation in radio versions or anything like that with phones that aren't working...?
I think my phone is broken. In WM I have after every reboot a new wifi-mac. With wifi on in WM my phone is very slow. I did task 29, tried different ROMs and Radio-ROMs.
Without wifi I have no problems with the phone.

The radio is very flaky, I believe even more so for CDMA devices. What type of phone do you have?
I get the same thing here. Almost 1 out of every 3 times coming out of sleep it is ok. Otherwise I have to go and rebuild the APN settings back to default.
Typically it has something listed but once in a while it lists nothing until I rebuild them.
These times seems like it is like the towers have stopped talking or refuse connection to my phone. Thus the reason why it uploads but not downloading any data.
2.1 had random data issues but 2.2 has some major kink either with the radio version or overall CDMA.
I have Verizon (RHOD500).

you can try re-flashing the radio, which will help if anything has been corrupted
I would try that if my WinMo has an issue. So far just android dropping data on my RHOD500.
I think it is trying to rebuild or at least re-register on the network too much causing issues with towers or internally at least.

I dnt have a problem in WM. Only within Android.
Yea... the radio drivers probably aren't perfect. Far from it, from the sound of things... I've definitely had issues with it as well. I just try to avoid making calls in Android, and receiving them always makes me leery. I've had a few important calls drop because Android decided to reboot itself...
Ahh yeah I've seen the same problems on my RHOD500...usually I know when facebook gets a refresh API error since its set to sync every hour so I just pop on/off airplane mode for a minute and I get data back.
Other then that radio seems pretty decent...I make and receive calls all day with no issues.

i have been having the same issue is there a fix for it?

cm6/sense issue - no data!

Not getting a DATA connection. Shows 3G icons but will not connect over 3G. Only WiFi. Help?
I wonder if this is a wide spread problem. If you have chrome to phone installed can you try pushing a page to your phone see if it works?
Edit: No data on motodroid either.
Seems to be a widespread issue on Verizon's network at the moment, checking their support forums shows a number of threads on various Android phones detailing problems originating around 1 AM CST.
i feel better about it being a widespread issue, but im still aggravated. i am in carlisle, pa. maybe its location based?
Don't know how location based it might be - I'm right near DC in Maryland (about halfway between DC and Annapolis) and having the same problem. Made playing Pocket Legends super interesting... I don't think I've EVER seen a game ping display continually count up (to about 7000 ms) before I gave up.
That being said, I'm beginning to think this thread should be moved to QA/General since it doesn't seem to be related to specific ROMs or devices.

I probably should've stated I'm running LithiumMod 0.0.5NG. I know my fiancee texted me saying she got an update pushed on her MotoDroid today, so maybe that is causing the downtime? It's still b0rked for me. *shrug*

I don't think it was a hardware/software issue. I was trying to connect to xda last night at around 1:20 last night and my 3G connection pooped out on me. It was probably just a network error.

Z1C WiFi Issues? Speed/Stability

Hi all,
Not been around for a long time so its great to be back
Recently got the Z1C on Contact, frankly its the biggest regret I've had with a mobile device.
Is anyone else having WiFi speeds slower than dial up?
My download speed is < 250 KB's
Any1 else had this? If so does any1 know a fix?
Thanks
I don't have that, neither on 2,4GHz nor on 5GHz. You could try the unofficial DooMLord kernel, it mentions "custom built wifi wlan modules", dunno if that helps.

I'll check it out when I get home but I never have Bluetooth on so I'd be surprised if it was that.
I have a gaming router which is extremely powerful and all other devices/phones work perfectly so I know that the Z1C is the bottleneck.
Any other ideas if its not the bluetooth?

Have you tried restarting your router?
Does it go slow with every wifi? can you test it on different wifi and see if the problem is with one type of router?
Don't think I've seen anyone ekse with this problem, although flashing the .757 update messed up my bluetooth (then .761 fixed it).

Thanks for getting back to me
I have tested it on my work WiFi, I don't know whether it is coincedence, sod's law or normal but the WiFi on my Z1C at my work is absolutely rapid!!
I've just updated an app to test it, and it was at around 5MB's which is brilliant for me !
However, work WiFi is a 100MB's connection speed, where as at home I believe its around the 12MB's mark (geographic limitations in place here >.<).
From this I see only a couple of conclusions:
1 - Z1C and my home router just don't get along.
2 - As the WiFi speed is so much higher at work, so is the Z1C
or that theres no relation between the WiFi speed and my device but there is an issue with the Z1C WiFi itself?
I'm presuming its the first?
Thanks again!

Have to be honest,
I got that fedup with all the issues on the phone, I sold it and bought an iPhone.

Hey that's a new phone just so you know because this is not acceptable.
Not sure about reclaims in your country but it should be valid in most?
Mine did about the same as my PC/PS4 = 60-95MBps, that is until yesterday
Both bluetooth and wifi are stone cold dead so I though I should reflash my ROM(Aur) and rushed it when I realized whilst doing the same 'ol start guide for the hundreds time I forgot to flash recovery :victory::fingers-crossed:

I have successfully used all Sense ROMs. But if I flash ANY AOSP ROM I have no WIFI whatsoever. It connects sometimes and drops right off. I can't use any non-Sense ROMs because of this and I am starting to get PO-ed.
Please help, reward in it.
I was told that wifi is like this because of HTC having a closed source wifi driver. Regular unsecured networks you should be able to connect to, but secured connections you'll have to be extremely close to the router to connect. Frustrating, I know.

Yes, that information is all I have been able to uncover actually. But I dont understand how its not really a big deal for anyone else? Haha.
I mean all these people seem to be using these AOSP ROMs....but I am the only one who seems to care that I have absolutely no wifi sitting on my couch at home?
Strange that people are just 'dealing'
Anyway - thanks

It is and has been a big deal for others. You can see this in pretty much every AOSP thread we have here. Only a few of you guys are experiencing no wifi at all. There's only a couple of options that can be done next to "just dealing" which is digging into the code and trying to fix it or using a non AOSP based ROM.
Try this if you want and test your wifi and let me know if it's any better.

If I got great 4G signal here at work I probably wouldn't mind as much about not being able to connect to the network here where you have to log in to use the free WiFi. I can never get to the acceptance page. Since there is free WiFi here I might as well use it but I can't. CarbonROM seems to be PERFECT aside from the WiFi issue plaguing all AOSP ROMs at the moment.
I just hope that someone can confirm that it is an issue that is being looked into. I'm a little curious as to why HTC would lock down its WiFi drivers...
I have had the same problem as you on all AOSP roms except Liquidsmooth. I flashed liquidsmooth beta (from the HTC m8 original thread) and wifi worked while it didn't on all of the others. The most current one is running on 4.4.3 and that may have something to do with it. I really want to flash Paranoid but Im waiting on 4.4.3. Liquidsmooth is a very stable rom if you want to check it out. I saw on a PA Google+ post that the 4.4.3 update may help fix this issue so I would wait... Although, I could be wrong
I hope that it gets resolved soon. I am so sick of using Sense. In fact, I hate all stock interpretations of Android. AOSP or die.

Have you tried playing with the WIFi module? If it is working on one, then you should be able to use it's WIFI module on another. If you aren't getting any wifi at all, well that sounds like a kernel module issue to me.
What kernel are you using?
My problem isn't connecting to WiFi, I can do that just fine. I haven't tried connecting to a secure password-protected network yet, but "Guest" access points I can't get to the page where you accept the terms of use unless I'm a few feet from the router. I don't know of any ROM that has allowed me to connect farther away from it yet. All the ROMs I have tried seem to let me use unsecured access points with no problem.
On AOSP ROMs I've tried the included Kernel baked into the ROM and Excaliber 0.3.
On Sense I'm on Faux.
