Q:notification bar - Moto 360

hello guys,just got my moto 360 at best buy this afternoon, just wondering in this picture if this is normal? isn't it supposedly says connected not starting....? pebble user here sorry

Mine usually says "connected" but occasionally says "disconnected". Even when it says disconnected everything still works.

Allshare cast hub. Anyone get it working?

There's one of these threads in every carrier specific Note 2 forum. I've looked at all the other ones and followed the instructions to a T. Anyone get this working?

Yep just gave it a try all is good.
Hopefully someone can figure out how to make it work on rooted device with custom flashed rom.
App reads flash count before starting , if flash value reads 1 Allshare becomes Noshare
You got it working? Man, I seriously tried for an hour to get it working. I must be doing something wrong =/

Yep.
Try it again but this time select help tab on allshare screen follow directions to the T.
Oh and also make sure wifi on device is disabled before getting started.

Turned the wifi off and it actually worked! Thanks sling!
No problem.
With Sprints version there was no need to turn off wifi first so I'm thinking its a bug that Samsung needs to address on are build.
When connected and you try youtube - anything data related a pop up will display letting you know wifi will be enabled allshare needs to restart.
Let it do its thing connection will re-establish .
Wow, this thing really does not work well. Wifi turns on by itself randomly and when it's on, i can't reconnect.

Ha I figured it out.
Simply Start Allshare app using pulldown Toggle.
Doing it that way will allow for app start when wifis already enabled no more crash will be had
Hmm it works intermittently for me. Hopefully the next software update will change that
Hmm I was never able to get it to work. Not with my note2 or s3. I'm starting to think maybe I have a bad dongle.
One question when you press the reset button on the dongle and the indicator light turns blue does it stay blue or does it turn back to red pretty quickly?

[Q] Wifi problems

I bought a used Xperia M for my mother.
Everything works great (i update to latest stock sofware) except wifi.
it says I'm connected but wifi keeps droping. When using chrome, it just hangs there and no page loads. And I tried using Fongo (Voip app), I can place a call, but after 10-20 seconds, I can't hear anything, and the other side either.
The wifi icon is always there, but clearly the phone drops the signal.
other phones/computer in the house have no problem on my wifi network.
Any ideas?

May be, you've been fooled. Oops, sorry!
Try reflashing stock firmware, full wipe will be great!

It's possible, but I doubt it. The lady that sold it to me didn't strike me as the scamming type. If something is wrong with the phone, she probably didn't know it. And either way, fooled or not, I'm stuck with the phone now...
My mother doesn't use the wifi on the phone, but if she wants to switch to using voip, it would be nice to have the option.
And the first thing I did when I got home was a full wipe with a flash/upgrade of stock firmware using Sony program.
I'll try doing another one just in case.
I read on other forums that people were having these problems, but no one had a fix for it..
Thanks!

but are you sure, you have try to repair with pc companion and it's still broken?
Yeah i just did it. I did a repair with complete wipe. It does connect to my wifi but it works only for a couple of minutes. Like i said my mother just uses the phone for calling and texting so it's not that big a deal. But I would have wanted to give her a 100% working phone...
I check around and on the sony forums some people are having the same problem, but no clear fixes.

Brother, have you checked what WiFi band frequency is selected, I had same prob when I had 5ghz selected and my office Wi-Fi was on 2.5ghz, I selected auto then.

The wifi band is set to auto, i tried both separately too. Keep wifi awake is set to always. And i tried a combination of all the other settings. The phone is set up just like my phone and my g-f's phone. The reception is excellent on the xperia, it just sort of freezes...
Anyway my mother came to pick up the phone this morning and she didn't mind the wifi not working. If she ever chooses to switch to voip, I'll either try to fix it or change the phone.
I'll try to look around in the mean time if I come across a fix. If I do i'll try it when she comes to visit.
Thanks!

I never checked. I grabbed my watch off the charger this morning, strapped it on and noticed a message of some sort. Was in a hurry so didn't bother checking out the notification. Once I was at work and had a few minutes I checked the forums and saw this thread and it reminded me to check my watch....and it was the "A system update has been downloaded, make sure you are at 80% charge......."
Mine is downloading, I've tested several times on menu/update with no success, only when I switched on the wifi it started to download
Just got mine.
I just connected it to WIFI but no luck when i go into setting and check for updates. I have a US MOTO 360 Gen 1

Yeah, I also have it charging too. I just found out something weird. You go into the watch setting and connect to the wifi. but once you exit and re-enter the wifi setting it shows it reconnects and automatically reconnects.
Is it automatically disconnecting when i exit or does it always do that and it stays connected to the WIFI but just shows that message.

You must turn off the bluetooth so the Moto 360 can establish a wifi connection.. That's why it disconnects when you leave settings.
Also if there is a wifi connection you can see a wifi symbol near battery %

Same here, I don't know the answer. Update still downloading two hours after, and it's about 70%, very slow. And I have to leave this wifi in 30 minutes (I'm at my job now), so maybe it finishes tonight at my home...
CLOSE THE BLUETOOTH.. there is no wifi connection if bluetooth is ON! It is slow because it downloads the update via bluetooth

Sudden Lock-down of The Phone

Funny thing today... I was commuting on the metro train, watching something jolly interesting on YouTube when suddenly my phone's screen went black. I tried to unlock it. I saw a message saying "This device is locked down, please enter your PIN....". I did just that. The phone resumed normal operations.
Has this happened to anyone else?

My wife wouldn't know how to do it. I see no real possibility here.
Well test it yourself. Go on a another device or computer and log into Android device manager and lock your phone. If you get the same notification, then it was definitely that. Might not be your wife but change your password and use 2-step verification if you don't already.

Whatsapp Web not connecting when phone is locked

Hey guys,
Trying on this more active forum...
I just bought the S21+, overall great phone except couple of issue with Android Auto and Whatsapp.
I was able to fix the Android Auto issue (wouldn't connect, had to remove the latest Google Chrome updates) but the whatsapp issue is above my paygrade.
I scanned the QR code and everything works but as soon as the phone screen goes black, whatsapp is slow and disconnects often. Not completely disconnected as after I send a message perhaps 10/15 seconds later it gets set but still not responsive as before (S8+)
Any idea?
you can try other software to watch network connection status, if no problem, maybe that's compitability issue on s21+

Thank you, do you have any recomandation?
Not sure if you managed to fix this but in case you haven't.
You need to make WhatsApp a non-optimized app in the battery settings. That way WA will consume as much battery as needed to stay alive and to connect to WA Web.

How about disabling Wi-fi power saving mode?
Phone is not connected to wifi, would that matter?

No, it shouldn't matter. I was just trying to provide an option.
I really don't have any problem when its on mobile data but I do have problems with Wifi from time to time cause WhatsApp Web is poorly implemented with the app.
Sorry I couldnt provide any help.
