Nexus 4 running the recent update Android 4.2.2. still has bluetooth/wifi issues - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Symptoms prior to 4.2.2.: Bluetooth headset (i tech 310) would disconnect during a call, when phone connected to WiFi network on auto frequency setting. At that time WiFi would drop and headset use would become unstable and unusable at the end.
NEW Symptom after 4.2.2.: Bluetooth would not turn on at all after "airplane mode" being turned off.. When attempting to turn it manually on from setting, the on/off bar would not switch to on, unless the phone turned off and on again.
Please provide any helpful advice or info on the matter..

WIFI/Bluetooth Issue - EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING

I am having this horrible issue with my Wifi and bluetooth.
1. WIFI: When I turn on WiFi after a reboot it works flawlessly, connects to my wifi network and I can zoom around the net just dandy. As soon as I go out of range of WiFi or manually disconnect it it will NOT turn back on it says "Unable to start Wifi" until I do a full reboot. So annoying.
2.) Bluetooth: When connecting to my Headset it connects just fine after a reboot. HOWEVER, after pairing, if I put the X10 standby with the powerbutton before making a call it will drop the bluetooth audio connection and only play sound through the earpiece. Even though it SAYS it's still connected and paired. And THEN when I shut off bluetooth and try to turn it back on, pretty much the same as the wifi thing except I get no error message it just tries to initiate bluetooth and then sits for a few minutes and then I guess gives up and keeps the bluetooth shut off without any indication of failure.
I'm guessing it's defective but if anyone has had this issue, please speak up! And even better if you know how to solve it. Thanks!! =)
I too am having the same issue with wifi. Also my x10 is superslow on my wifi @ times. So i run a speedtest and I get 3MB, which is fast, but the phone isn't using that speed while browsing the internet.
Hello,
I experienced the same thing as you. Moreover I have a trouble with Bluetooth in my car. After few seconds (around 1 minute) of talk, I don't loose the BT connexion but nobody understand me !!!
Have you tried your BT?
Have you got a task killer running that's killing your bluetooth and wifi?

[Q] Bluetooth disconnects on WiFi connect

Hi,
when I ride my car, I usually turn on the car mode, WiFi and Bluetooth. I start at home where I am connected to my WiFi and connect the Bluetooth audio. Everywhere works fine.
But once I reach my destination where they also have WiFi the phone tries to connect to it. This causes the Bluetooth to shut down completely and only a reboot of the phone makes it possible to re-activate it.
I just started to experience this issue. Is it possibly related to the latest Android update? Does anyone know a fix?
Thank you!
Change the Wi-Fi band.
Go to Wi-Fi, click 3 dots menu, select Advanced and change the frequency band at 2.4ghz.

Hi, Thank you very much for your recommendation. The situation has improved since but I have had another two disconnects:
- once Bluetooth reconnected itself
- the second time the situation was again as described above
Any further ideas?
I'm still facing the issue in irregular patterns. Are there other possibilities than changing the WiFi band?
Try other radio maybe.
.48 seems to work fine for many users

Hi, thank you!
I just tried to find an option where to change the radio but couldn't find it. Could you please tell me where it is?
However, I discovered the "scanning always available". Does this drain the battery? If not, I could turn off WiFi in my car and always put this option instead. The only reason why I turn on WiFi in the car is to improve the GPS location and I usually turn it off cause it drains the battery when I am on campus and it keeps reconnecting to several WiFis.

Here are the radios.

Just flash through custom recovery.
And for GPS you shouldn't need Wi-Fi or other data.
Mine locks in seconds, the moment I activate the navigation.

WiFi cuts in and out when bluetooth is on, works fine when bluetooth is off

On my 6P, the flow of data on WiFi stops every few minutes, remains out for 10-30 seconds, then comes back. Usually, it will fail over to LTE data automatically. Then after 30 seconds or so, reconnects to WiFi. *THIS 100% ONLY HAPPENS WHEN BLUETOOTH IS TURNED ON. * If I turn Bluetooth off, WiFi remains on rock solid.
I don't know if it's related or not, but the only time I can get it to use WiFi for calls/sms is if I put it in airplane mode so it had no choice to use WiFi. It will never switch to or utilize WiFi calling automatically. The 3G signal in my house is nearly non existent, so it should be using WiFi in nearly all cases.
I use Pure Nexus. Updating to the latest version 2 weeks ago made no difference.
I have already been down all the roads with routers, WiFi channels, DHCP, and any other fix that could possibly be unrelated to the 6P. It's none of them. Again, this only happens with bluetooth turned on, and does not happen with bluetooth turned off.
Any suggestions? 

Wi-fi and Bluetooth turn on and off randomly

Hey
I am guessing this is a software/app/os issue, but it is noticeable on the LG V20 thanks to the second screen.
Recently I have noticed that wifi and bt turn on while the main screen is off. When I turn the screen on, they both turn off like naughty school kids caught smoking. This is obviously when I am not using wifi or bt.
I have scoured the settings looking for something that can stop this from happening, but nothing so far. Wifi has a setting where it says, "keep wifi on while in standby", with three options, I have tried all three of them, and nothing is preventing this from happening.
I enjoy controlling these functions, and get anxious when it happens automatically. Anyone with advice?
I think I have found the solution. I had the app Firechat installed which uses Bluetooth and WiFi to transmit data to other devices. I have uninstalled it now and it seems that WiFi and bt have stopped turning on automatically.

Anyone else? My wifi will shut off after about 30 seconds and I have those same settings set to keep on. I even tried after a factory reset and still having this issue.
I have the same problem,if the Bluetooth is on I have high latency wifi and conectivity loss, this only fix if I power off the bluetooth

I am also running into this issue. The only way I can get my wifi to connect to my home router is by restarting my phone. Otherwise the rest of the time, I see a message stating that my wifi is disconnected, when it clearly was not, it was even showing me nearby routers that I could connect to, but not my own router, even when i tried to add my router manually, it could not connect. I am having the same issue with Bluetooth connections. My laptop can sometimes see my phones Bluetooth, but my car can't find it at all. I'm on AT&T H910, running on DESOLATION 7.1.2

Wifi keeps switching on an off

Dear all,
I'm experiencing a somewhat weird issue with my Xiaomi Mi A1 (Oreo) which started a couple of months ago.
My WiFi keeps switching on an off.
* When I turn off WiFi, 4G comes up. After a few seconds (I can leave the phone unlocked at the desk, it almost happens instantaneously) Wifi turns on by itself and connects (just as if I switched it on manually).
* When I activate the mobile Hotspot, it switches off after a few seconds, disconnecting all devices connected, only to switch on the regular Wifi after a few seconds and trying to connect to the next network.
* In random cases, Wifi just switches off despite being connected to a working network and while I'm using it.
This is somewhat annoying, and I didn't find any solutions online. Any ideas? Any more information you need (sorry, I'm new here)?
EDIT: This is not the "Turn on Wifi automatically" setting, and it is also not related to location services.
Flash stock rom, sounds like a software bug. Otherwise, return it while you still can.
Thanks.
