So, I unboxed my brand new N1 today. Went through the set up steps and chose to set up everything later. I then tried to set up wifi. I clicked the box and it said it was turning wifi on. After the box shows the green check mark, the phone says it "can't search for wireless networks" then cuts wifi off.
When I try to add a wireless network manually, it says "can't save wireless network." Then cuts wifi off.
And on both, I get an error message: "Sorry! Application settings (in process com.android.settings) is not responding." I choose force close, and it shuts down wifi. I choose wait, and it shuts down wifi.
I've tried resetting the phone to factory default both in the normal Android GUI as well as doing the hard reset and still no luck.
Any ideas?

hi i installed this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418859
but when i try to connect to my wifi it doesnt connect, when i go into connection settings for the wifi it comes up with a list of available networks but when i try to connect to any of them they then become unavailable any ideas?
someone must know what to do lol please
Have you tried soft-reseting your device? Every now and then the WiFi drivers dont initialize on the Wizard, and ya gotta soft-reset it to get em to work.
it works when i reset the device but once it goes into standby mode and comes back on it wont connect
i had the same problem when i flashed the nbd x rom, wifi shows on the list under command manager, but not when you go to settings > connections. when you click it the "busy" symbol comes up and wifi never turns on. i tried restarting, and even reflashing the rom numerous times, still no luck. anyway i found this just messing around with it.
click wifi and when the "busy" symbol comes up quickly hold the shut down button, and let the device turn off.
wait maybe 5-10 minutes turn it back on and when you do wifi should be on already. if not click it under command manager. (to see if you have wifi enabled go to settings > connections and "Wi-Fi" should show along the list. if it doesn't work try it again, but wait maybe longer like 25-30 minutes. this always works for me. if you can try not to turn off your device because wifi goes away and you'll have to do the whole process again.
hope this helps.
*haha nevermind you have a different problem. sorry
I went to the C.Manager. I can't get it to work right.
This is what it's set to:
Wireless Connection(Disables all wireless connection): ON
In-Flight Internet(Enable Wi-Fi and Direct push): OFF
Phone(Change phone settings): ON
Bluetooth(Turn on Bluetooth): ON
Wi-Fi (Connect to Wi-Fi Network): ON
MS Direct Push(Retrieve Outlook mail as it arrives): OFF
Data Connection(setup data connection): ON
With it like this, if I do a reset on the HD2, when it reboots, I see a Wi-Fi icon at the top. I click the icon, it says "Multiple Connections Detected", I click on the the wi-fi icon, New window opens titled Wi-Fi. Listed says wifi(Turn on wifi):OFF. Next line says Wi-Fi Networks, which has nothing listed.
I never changed of of the wi-fi stuff till today. I did do ONE regedit, for the Wireless N feature, but I changed it back when I got all these problems. And no, I don't know if I had this issues b4 that one edit change. And yes, I did a soft reset after every reg change.
1) I tried clicking the wi-fi on this screen.button pushes down but nothing happens. I press "X" and close the window
2) I launch Comm Manager. I try clicking the Wireless Connections Icon. It' still says ON. BUT Inflight Internet changes to:ON, and Phone changes to:OFF, Bluetooth changes to:OFF, Data-Connection is greyed out.
I press it again. Busy sign comes up, nothing changes.
3) I press Phone. It switches to:ON. And InFlight Internet changes:OFF
4) I press bluetooth, and it turns: ON
5) I press Wi-Fi and still nothing changes(Still:ON)
6) I press Data connection. It switched to: ON
7) I click In-Flight:OFF, changes to ON, and turns off PHONE.
8) I press InFlight again, nothing happens.
9) I press Phone, and it turns on the phone. and turns OFF the In-flight.
So... Wireless Connections:ON and the Wi-Fi:ON. Neither one does anything when I click it. Both is always GREEN ON.
ALSO
Under Settings-menu-all setting.
I click Connections and selected Wi-Fi.
"Turn on Wi-Fi" says: ON
I can click on it, and it says OFF
If I check Comm Manager, Wi-Fi is still ON and so is Wireless Connections.
I do a reset of the HD2
ANd I still get the wi-fi telling me theres a signal.Nothing changed. And when I go into "Turn wifi on", its checked again.
That little attenna I get after soft reset, only started after the regedit. I never had the wi-fi on b4 now. But I checked and that is reset to show 1.
"39. Speed Up Web Page Loading Considerably
The following registry tweak will enable almost instantaneous web page loading in the web browser. It apparently enables wireless N mode but seems to work with cellular data too. Go to:
HKLM/Comm/BCMSDDHD1/Parms
11nModeDisable = Change from 1 to 0"
Can't turn off wifi either
I have exactly the same problem, will be forced to hard reset, I think. Does anyone have any ideas?
I have Nexus 7 with 3G. When I turn on the machine, it goes through the set up screen. I did not put the sim card into my device. So I press Skip button to by-pass 3G set up screen. After that, it will go to Wi-Fi set up screen and the device never enables to create the connection. I tried to connect different router (even I tried to connect to my phone too) but never work. Finally, I got the "Avoid poor connection" error message. Did anyone know how to bypass the Wi-Fi set up screen? Thank you.
My Nexus 4 isn't connecting to wifi. More specifically, if I am connected to a remembered network, my phone does not automatically reconnect when I leave the range then come back into it.
Now, there are 2 wifi networks in the apartment and I've tried both. I actually just "forgot network" on the last remembered network on my phone because I was trying to connect to the better one.
Since I've done that, I am unable to connect to wifi at all, because the only way for me to connect to wifi before was to restart my phone and have it automatically connect to the remembered network.
Now that I don't have a remembered network, I cannot connect to anything, and my Wifi page on my phone will not show any wifi networks available and it won't even give the option to turn on wifi or to refresh the list. I have to reboot my phone, making sure the wifi is off first (using the toggle on the dropdown notification menu), then I can at least refresh the empty list. When I refresh the list, it gives me an error, "WPA failed. Retry in a few minutes."
I need this fixed. I live in a basement apartment and my cell signal is usually unavailable while I'm home.
I was running the AOKP 4.3 milestone when I started having the problem, then went back to stock, put on a 4.4 nightly ROM, had the same problem, then went back to the same 4.3 milestone. Unfortunately, I didn't leave my phone on stock 4.4 long enough to see if the problem persisted there.
Is there anything I can do at this point before going through the process of bringing my phone back to stock again?
Thanks
Update: After restarting my phone some 20 or more times, I was eventually able to see the list of networks and put the password in for the new network. So I at least have wifi now because my phone automatically connects.
However, all the problems stated above are still the same. I lose connection and cannot automatically reconnect when I go out and back into range of the signal, and can only regain the connection when I restart my phone and it automatically connects to the one known network on reboot.
If there's any information or anyway to try to fix it, I'd love to know.
Thanks
Hey,
I recently got a used Lenovo A7600-F tablet from my office because they weren't using it anyways.
Everything seems to work perfectly fine - except the wifi connection.
Code:
Model: Lenovo A7600-F
Android: 4.4.2 (no further update available for that model)
Kernel: 3.4.67
Build: A7600F_A442_000_029_150401_ROW
Here is the thing:
I disable/enable wifi
I click my home network and enter the password
Nothing happens for ~2 seconds
"Failed to connect to network" (no "connecting" or similar)
To make sure my WPA2 security isn't the problem, I made an unprotected hotspot on my phone. Absolutely identical problem.
One thing I noticed: The tablet is able to find all the networks around me and updates their signal strength in the list without any problems. As soon as I try to connect to one, it takes around 2 seconds until it says "Failed to connect to network". If I then try again, the message pops up instantly with no delay for all networks. From that moment on, the list also stops updating and can't be refreshed until I turn my wifi off and on again.
I downloaded "Wifi Analyzer" and I can see all the networks' strength values moving. I can close the app, do something else or go to standby and come back to see the values still updating. But as soon as I try to connect to a network, it will give that error again, stop updating the list in the wifi section and Wifi Analyzer will not be able to find any more signals. If I close that app and bring it back up now, the list of networks will remain empty. Same with the networklist on the wifi settings. Turning wifi off and on again resets the whole thing.
In short: My tablet sees all networks around me and updates them, but gives an error ("Failed to connect to network") as soon as I try to connect. Then no more wifi updates until i disable/enable it again.
Factory reset did not help, I let the battery drain and charged it back up - no success! I also tried an app called "Wifi Ruler", which was mentioned to fix a similar problem in a post I found on another forum. Connecting through that has exactly the same effect.
Does anybody have an idea about what is going wrong and what else I could try to fix this?
