Hi all,
Got my hands on a mad today - loving it!
Small issue. On startup, and every hour or so, it has this popup error message
Trouble is, I'm still connected - I'm generally in the middle of browsing or streaming when it comes on the screen.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

how strong is your wifi signal , is it your home wifi or a public wifi ?
WiFi has full bars - it's my home connection, and the router is less than 4m away.
Down the other end of the house (20+ meters) I still get 1-2/3 strength.
Whenever it pops up I'm actually still connected to the internet though, so it's almost like a false popup.

You could monitor your internet and see if this alert is valid... download something huge on the computer and if you notice the download being consistent then it can be confirmed as a false pop-up. I do get this few times and i believe it happens because at that moment the internet is not connected.
I have had problems in HTC One X which was fully connected to WiFi and does load anything while the computer next to it works. I managed to capture a video of that weird behavior next to another phone and sent it to HTC and HTC had no other option other than to replaced my phone.

For some odd reason, if I leave my wifi on overnight while not connected to a wifi network, I can't seem to connect to a wifi network without rebooting my NT. has anyone else experienced this problem?
If I try to turn off the wifi from settings, it says "unable to stop wifi"
not sure what is causing this...
any ideas??

No idea, but have seen that as well. And one other user I know mentioned he has the same issue. Occasionally the Nook loses WIFI and needs a reboot.
Mine takes quite a while after it has been in standby to re-connect to a wifi network, but never had to reboot. There is the location in quick settings to turn off wifi and then in main settings. Have you tried both locations? Could also just be a major fluke that takes factory reset to fix. Sorry I cant have a better answer for you.
Same issue here. Are you guys rooted?
My drops too, but allows me to disconnect and reconnect. It is rooted, don't know if that makes a difference.

This is not a daily occurrence with my Nook. Maybe 60% of the days. The status indicator mostly shows no signal, though I've seen it show a signal on occasion. In all instances settings list of WiFi sources is empty & I'm unable to turn WiFi off. Device reports "Can't stop WiFi" Reboot squares it away.

Seems like a trend. Anyone know if the problem is fixed with 1.4.1 rooted?
I'm using 1.4.1 rooted and I've never had this problem. Of course, I don't really know if the problem existed for me before the update since I did the update and root together.
Every morning I have to do a reboot. Trying to turn off wifi results in "unable to stop wifi" or something like that. I'm on rooted 1.4.0

I haven't noticed anyone talking about it lately. Has everyone just accepted it or is there a fix that I've missed? Mine still does it at my house.
Once or twice a week I notice my wifi and Bluetooth both drop off at the same time. They come back in a bit so it's really not a big deal for me.

Yes WiFi and 3g disconnects.
I'm still getting them pretty often actually.
Often here also. To often imo
Sent from my EVO LTE
Cool thanks for replying guys. It happens so often at my house that it really makes it difficult to get much done. I would just use 3G, but lord have mercy is it slow. I'm assuming HTC will fix it in a software update, right? Right? Right? lol
It use to happen to me all the time until I changed the frequency band settings from "Auto" to "2.4GHz only"
Edit: it doesn't drop if I set it to "5GHz only" also
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
Yeah i've tried that trick but it still disconnects like crazy. The weird part for me is that it only happens at my house with my router. So maybe it's disagreeing with my router for some reason. But I've had 4 different phones, a laptop, and my wife's iPhone all connect to the home WiFi with no problems and no disconnects.
Hmmm, hadn't thought about the frequency setting; I'll try that and let you know if it works for me. Might be one of those "your mileage may vary tricks"
Possible Fix
I was also having issues with WiFi disconnecting. (Not often) My main issue is that I wouldnt receive notifications from apps while on WiFi and screen was off for more that 45mins putting the phone into "sleep" mode (GTalk, Gmail, Facebook, etc) unless I turned on the screen. I installed this app from the Play Store "Hidden Settings" Dev. Derek R Reynolds which puts a "Power Saver Settings" app in the app drawer. It gives you access to a hidden menu that you can't normally get to. While in the App I unchecked "Put Data Connection to sleep" and that has resloved my issues. I haven't seen the WiFi get disconnected and I am receiving my notifications like normal. I have only had this solution for 1 day so I will report back if there are any other changes.
My Phone not Rooted.
I do not take credit for this possible solution. All creadit goes to the Dev's that figured this out. I simply read about it on another thread..
Many times when searching via voice I'm getting a "disconnected" error with a list of other things to tap (like when you tap the clock to see a list of actions).
The phone is within a few feet, on a solid wifi connection. Droid Maxx from Verizon, stock ROM. Watch is the LG G Watch, including the update that came out today.
Any thoughts?

My LG G watch seems to be encountering the disconnected error a fair amount as well. It is paired with a Nexus 5.
It appears the bluetooth link is going down between the two, while the phone shows the watch as being connected if I use the Android Wear app on the phone to disconnect and then reconnect it gets stuck re-connecting. Rebooting the watch lets it connect again.
On other occasions it has reconnected itself after a while.
EDIT:
PS. It is worth noting that the watch does NOT display the disconnect icon when this happens (usually if you walk out of range you get a little cloud with a line through it)

I'm not getting extended disconnects; just failing to answer questions about half the time. If it fails, I can try again and it often works.

I just got my LG G Watch and paired it with my stock Moto X running 4.4. It paired no problem but I would say 95% of the time I get a disconnected message when doing a voice search. It is pretty infuriating.
Notifications still seem to come through and I still get served cards but voice search fails almost all the time. When I initially went from Wifi to 4g it worked for one search and then back to disconnected. It doesn't seem to be a phone problem since people on here are using a number of different phones. This is a bug that needs to get fixed ASAP by Google.
I am disappointed but hopeful they can get this quickly fixed.
I'm experiencing the exact same thing on my Gear Live. Its paired with stock S5. I just tried for like 5 minutes to get it to save a note and it would think for a while and then just disconnect.

Happens to me, too. Completely random though. Repairing the watch fixes it, but it is indeed annoying. We will have to wait for Google to fix this together with all the other bugs.
I found a small fix for this issue if anyone still needs help. I just set a tasker task to disconnect and reconnect bluetooth every hour. I haven't encounter this issue after doing so. It takes about 10 seconds and works great for me.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.
What about trying to reply using voice within a received Hangout or email? I'm always getting an error "Can't reach Google at the moment". Am I the only one? But if I select a default reply from the available list, I can reply with no problems...

Nice idea, however it doesn't fix the issue for me (I bought Tasker specifically for this). Is this still working for you, or is it just improving things slightly?
Trouble is I don't use the voice search in public often (people stare!), but when I do want to show-off my watch's features, it fails - I look like a nob! Anyone found any sign that Google are looking at this? Does the Gear Live have this problem?

I found it only improves it a little, but it's not a full fix. Sometimes my watch works the whole day without connection problems and then suddenly multiple times in a short period of time.
I've read that the gear live has the same problem, so I guess it's android wear wide. Hopefully google is going to bring out an update soon which fixes all the annoying bugs.

Like stated by the previous post this is a simple fix. The only one that can truly fix the issue is Google. I have used this for a week and not had any issues relating to bluetooth disconnecting. One issue I noticed was Google Search sometimes breaks after using it multiple times in a short amount of time. I usually have to just force stop Google Search every 3 days also.
This has always been an issue I had even before Android Wear. If I used Google Now too much I couldn't get the "Okay Google" command to work. It seems this also happen when using wear too much. A simple force stop fixed it, but it is annoying when you want it to just work. Another thing I noticed was custom roms are having issues with Android Wear in my case.
Every time I use a custom rom on my Nexus 5 and try to use my LG G Watch I have constant disconnects and Google Search issues. Maybe Android Wear isn't playing nice with custom roms, but after using rooted stock for the last week I am experience very few issues compared to when using different custom roms. I noticed whenever I used a custom rom I got the "Connected, running sync loop". I have no idea if this causes the constant disconnects, but on stock with the simple "Connected" I have no issues.
I started out with the same problem using a Gear Live with a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact. The thing that fixed it for me was turning off battery saving mode on the phone - called stamina on the Xperia - that was turning off BT to save power. Now I rarely see the disconnected message.
Anyone found a solution to this problem?
My lg g watch also disconnects 90% of the time from my note 4. Anything from ok google to search or ser a reminder or or or

I have found this issue for Android Wear for my LG G watch R and Galaxy Note 3. If I use watchmaker, I have it set to vibrate twice upon disconnect and vibrate once upon connect. It is constantly disconnecting and immediately reconnecting (2 vibrations, followed immediately by a single vibration). This is extremely annoying and I see the same problem stated in the beginning, the voice search is constantly disconnected or cannot reach the server.
Cheers,
B.D.
Hi all,
Posted this morning re sending emails using stock email over WiFi (sits in outbox, switch to 4g sends instantly) but now thinking something to do with actual phone.
Received some pics on WhatsApp & over WiFi took an eternity to load, forwarded one to OH took ages to send. She sends one to me on her phone over WiFi it's instant - so not a problem with WiFi.
Similarly, videos don't load over WiFi buffering/loading circle then plays in bits. Again switch to 4g it plays instantly.
I've tried all these on OH's phone they all work fine on same home WiFi so it's gotta be my phone
Pages take ages to load, the vowifi icon hardly appears, it all points to handset network issues just unsure on best steps to fix?
Sorry long post, any ideas?
TIA
Hi All I have the Mate 20 Pro and absolutely loving it apart from the below problem.
WiFi keeps dropping out. It's definitely nothing to do with the wireless router as all other devices working perfectly and my previous SAMSUNG S7 never had any issues they only started when I got this new phone.
Unfortunately its causing serious issues for me as I can't get data connection downstairs and rely on WiFi.
I've read others have problems and apparently Hawai cut corners with the WiFi and put a poor quality device inside?
Is there anything that can be done or is this definitely a hardware problem and something I just have to live with I. E. Not being able to use it on WiFi?
It shows full bars on the WiFi status symbol top left but will connect one minute and the next minute can't even load a new page, Facebook comments, or will just pause and start spinning on a video.
Bump!! Same problems! My Galaxy S7 and S8 always worked flawless with notifications and internet connection switching between wifi and 4G. Mate 20 pro drops out. Now also remembering my old Ascend Mate 7 did the same. Huawei problem, but is there a solution?
I have tried various settings in the wireless and developer settings no luck. I cant seem to find the usual android settings to keep wifi on always...
Did you guys check under Settings/Battery/More battery Settings if "Stay connected when device sleeps" is ON?
Pretty stupid to hide it there (Samsung had it in the right place under WiFi settings) but whatever.
My Wifi NEVER disconnects at home or work and I DO get emails even if the app is set to pull every 30 min (so it wakes up properly and pulls data). Plus unlike my old S7Edge, WiFi reported power drain is always below 1%...so negligible.
I've noticed Youtube keeps losing connection when using Chromecast
