Google Nexus 6 :: LTE Turns Off When WiFi Is On?

Oct 10, 2015

their N6 on Sprint where Sprint service essentially turns off whenever Wi-Fi is on. This is the only way I've been able to describe my issues with the N6. Whenever I am at home, I am usually on Wi-Fi because it works more reliably than LTE. So whenever someone calls me, the call goes straight to voicemail. I only receive a missed call notification if someone leaves a voicemail. I've been able to test this out with family members where I turn on Wi-Fi, they call me, and the call goes straight to VM. Then, I turn off Wi-Fi, they call me again, and I get the call.

Keeping LTE on all the time (and Wi-Fi off) would not be an issue but for the fact that Sprint's service notoriously sucks inside any building made of concrete (even in Manhattan). I'm not ready to switch providers because I've been grandfathered into a no-throttle unlimited everything plan where I essentially can use 5GB of data each month and pay a reasonable price. I moved to NYC recently and before lived in the D.C. area, where I lived in a house adjacent to a tower. There, I didn't mind keeping Wi-Fi off because I always had great LTE.

This is quite frustrating and it appears to be documented to some effect on Sprint's website (without a fix, of course). Sprint has now reset my network, PRL, and profile; and the only other option appears to be replacing the phone through my insurance. I'm hesitant, though, because I preordered a 6P.

Google Nexus 5 :: WiFi Disconnect When Screen Turns Off

Dec 18, 2015

I have a little issues with my nexus. When I lock the device, the wifi turn off and reconnect as soon as unlock the device.

I don't have any energy save app or something like that, and the option in "advance wifi" is set in always on.

Google Nexus 5 :: Phone Turns Off When Battery Is About 40%

Oct 24, 2015

I have installed Android 6.0 few weeks ago. Since last week I have noticed some weird behaviour. While discharging, when the battery is about 40%, my Nexus 5 turns off immediately. Then, when I am trying to turn it on, I got a low battery warning and can't turn it on. When I connect it to the charger and turn it on, the battery indicator shows about 15-20%.Is my battery going to die? It looks normal, not swollen. I tried reinstalling Marshmallow (with wipe) but it didn't work. When reinstalling system, I noticed an other problem. Stock recovery doesn't work. After flashing it with

Code:

fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I have only the laying android and red triangle picture. TWRP works when flashed the same way. But it disappears after reboot!

I have recently noticed a strange issue with my Nexus 5. I have it set to ring when I get a call and once I answer that call and hang up, it automatically turns to vibrate on inbound calls.

Having issue since last night. Battery was 60% approximately. I followed the holding power and volume button and it goes to "restart bootloader" then suddenly nexus shuts off within 5 sec itself. Some times it goes to "Power Off" option but my nexus 5 suddenly shuts down within 5 sec itself. I tried several different chargers including the "official" one that came with the phone, but won't work.

Google Nexus 5 :: Why Phone Randomly Turns Off After Taking A Picture

Jul 30, 2015

I've got this issue for about two or three days now. Quite often, when I take a picture with stock Google camera app, my Nexus turns off instantly. Then, when I try to turn it on again, it often turns off again in about one minute and usually it shows almost empty battery (even though before shutdown it was nearly full).

First it has appeared on stock rooted 4.4.4, the phone tried to boot like 10 times, so I erased cache and dalvik via TWRP, but then it didn't detect SIM card and showed unknown baseband. I solved it by flashing bootloader and radio.

Then, I installed a stock 5.1.1, rooted it again (I thought it would solve the issue), but the same problem with camera occurred. So, could it be hardware issue? How to debug it?

Google Nexus 5 :: WiFi Not Working

Oct 24, 2015

So about a week ago my WiFi just wouldn't work anymore. When I try to turn it on, it stays stuck at "Turning WiFi on". I think I've tried almost anything to make it work again. I've reflashed the factory image 3 time (Android 6.0), I've tried downgrading to Lollipop 5.1.1 but it still wouldn't work. I took it to a GSM Service and they said that there is no hardware problem.

Google Nexus 5 :: Turning WiFi On And Off

Nov 13, 2013

I'm on a 32gb Google Play purchased white Nexus 5, activated on Sprint. I went through a whole charge cycle yesterday with Wi-Fi off, and under battery usage / Wi-Fi / Use Details / Wi-Fi running, it showed "Wi-Fi running" 17 hours. I never even had Wi-Fi turned on once.

I've been playing with it today, turning Wi-Fi on and off, and no matter what, the Wi-Fi usage time matches my phone on time. It seems according to the battery meter my Wi-Fi is always on.

Google Nexus 5 :: Using Hangouts - MMS Over WiFi

In an effort to squeeze a little extra battery life from my phone I setup a tasker profile to disable mobile data when on Wifi.

Unfortunately, that means I can't get MMS messages when on Wifi. I'm using hangouts, but don't think it's hangouts specific. If there's a way to make this work?

Google Nexus 5 :: Bad WiFi Signal On Android 6

Oct 24, 2015

I flashed factory image of android 6 on the day of the release. I've had worse wifi signal than I had on 5.1.1, a very notable change. In my wife's nexus 5 I waited till the ota update, and that phone doesn't have the same issue. I've tried flashing the radio from 5.1.1,but didn't see any change. I also refreshed to stock 6.0,and performed factory reset.

I'm at like 60% signal when sitting next to the router.

Google Nexus 5 :: Slow WiFi On Phone

Nov 6, 2013

After being connected to WiFi for a while the wifi speeds drop to less than a quarter of their normal speeds, e.g. at home 6 Mbps drops to 1.4 Mbps. It is the same at work connecting to an enterprise level AP (although speed drop is 30 Mbps to about 5 so less of a problem).

I know it is device related as other devices tested at the same time are at the right speed.

Toggling WiFi off then on again returns everything to normal speed.

It's like it reverts to power saving mode. Didn't have this problem with my 4 or current N7.

Google Nexus 6 :: Any Way To Prioritize WiFi Networks?

Aug 25, 2015

I got a problem where 2 different wifi networks are available and my N6 is switching between them all the time. Not only does this drain the battery but the other network must be certainly weaker, as the router is far away. In reality this means, that my phone is sometimes 20 sec. without any connection as it tries to switch back and forth. I don't know, why the phone still tries to switch to the network, my guess is that because the weaker network is a certificate-installed (university) network and thus is prioritised. However, is there any way to manage prioritization in lollipop? I know that this was possible in iOS (and also my Mac which had the problem before) and according to my research this was also a possibility in KitKat.

Google Nexus 5 :: WiFi Keeps Slowing To Less Than 2mpbs

Jun 1, 2014

I have a brand-new Nexus 5. For some reason, the wifi connection keeps slowing to just less than 2mbps. If I turn the wifi off and on again via the phone settings, the connection always flies back up to around 30mpbs, but only for a short time (maybe around 15 minutes - it is seemingly random). My connection is a very stable fibre optic one and all other devices in my home operate fine, as did my previous phone.

I have tried all of the following options, which I found on a site, but to no avail:

1. Enable Airplane mode then turn off or toggle the Wi-Fi on and off to reset the connection.

2. Reboot the Nexus 5 to refresh the entire system.

3. Switch off the Wi-Fi router for 10 seconds then turn it back on.

4. On the Nexus 5 Settings menu, select Wireless and networks > Wi-Fi > Forget the network the problem then reconnect and entire the right details.

5. Update the firmware of the Wi-Fi router by checking the Web site from your Internet Service Provider's manual.

6. Change the band on your Nexus 5. Go to Settings > Wireless and networks > Wi-Fi > Menu key > Advance > Wi-Fi frequency band > Try 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz only instead of Auto. Uncheck the Avoid Poor Connections as well to improve Wi-Fi connectivity.
