Hey everybody.
I got today an update and I thought to myself it would be nice. I didn't think that the fact I rooted my device should be mentioned about it.
since I updated my phone I can't use WIFI. when i'm pushing the wifi button it does nothing and below it "error" is written.
can anyone help me?
Thanks!
Have you tried Settings.. Wireless.. then deleting/forgetting the password etc,... then re-connect again?
I can't. again, under the "able/unable wifi" written "error". when i'm trying to push it it's trying to turn on and then comes back to error.
I think others had this problem because of rooting and unfortunately the fix is running the RUU to return to stock - but this will wipe your phone. But before that try a simple factory reset (Settings > SD & Phone Storage > Factory data reset).

Hi
first of all I would like to say that I'm a complete noob on android. I just switched over form IOS. I did have my device rooted and running the original stock rom.
I did a full reset this morning so that I can give my phone to my brother. When I was finished and went through the whole initial set up of wifi and google accounts, I clicked Finished and the "Unfortunately, settings has stopped" came up and there's nothing else I can do.
I tried doing a hard reset with the home,volume, and power button. Same problem persisted.
What else must I do to get this phone running again?
If you have a nandroid of the original stock after rooting and installing custom recovery I would restore that, if not you might want to install a new rom. Either way if /data is wiped and you're not worried about saving anything on the phone you have no worries.
Folks,
Strange one. Just upgraded to Lollipop 5.0 and now when I move out of range from a WIFI access point, my phone DOES NOT automatically switch to mobile data. Previously on KitKat 4.4.2, where this would occur automatically.
Strange thing is that when I manually switch off the WIFI transmitter on my phone, it then switches to mobile data.
Don't want to have to do this all the time when I'm out of range!
Any advice would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Mine did that once, clearing cache from recovery and rebooting the phone fixed it
Turn off smart network switch too from wifi settings
Cheers.
Will give this a try.
Also remember that after upgrading from KK to LP, leaves a load of rubbish files behind from KK that cause all sorts of problems, it is highly advised to factory reset after upgrading, you'll find most people here have done that and it solves a majority of problems
Ok cool.
Looks like I might have to do this.
Have tried clearing cache from recovery and have also disabled autoswitching - still getting the same issue.
Will try a factory reset.
Hi everyone,
i am having a SM-G900F (it is t-mobile). It is on stock lollipop LRX21T.G900FXXU1BNL9 with modem and bootloader BOB7 (which i flashed a week ago).
I have problems since the last 2-3 days, my phone is connected to a working WiFi or mobile data and everything seems alright, but it isn't, i don't have any internet access. I have to turn of WiFi or mobile data and turn it on and eventually it starts working again :S
Does anyone has an idea what the problem may cause and how should i fix it? Thanks in advance
EDIT: Also if i take out the battery of my phone and turn it on afterwards, it turns off but with a black screen, and i get a "System fc", and i have to try to turn it on a few times to get it work like it should, but if i turn off the phone without taking out the battery it turns on just fine everytime
First thing Id try is clearing CACHE from Recovery
Did you factory reset after updating to Lollipop from KK? It is needed to get rid of left over bugs / files from KK

When i bought the phone (used) it already had lollipop on it. I tried clearing cache+dalvik cache but still the same, but didn't tried a factory reset, right now i am downloading a custom rom, will wipe everything and see what happens after that.
Some strange thing that i noticed is, that the internet now won't work for any app escept for viber, on viber it works without problems
Right now i have flashed another ROM with wipe-ing everything before and i have still problems with the internet :S
i don't know what do to now :/
EDIT: Data is working, but wifi connects but no internet :/
EDIT2: I've found out what the problem is, it wasn't my phone, it was some weird virus which changed my routers DNS settings
Last night, my wifi just stopped working, it won't enable. When I go to advanced I am sometimes able to turn on the wifi, but it just continuously says turning on but won't enable, and sometimes it's just totally greyed out. I also had some problems today connecting to mobile data services as well, and I don't know if that's related.
I've tried a hard reboot (but it just comes up saying no command...), I've tried restarting it a million times... The only thing I haven't tried is a factory reset, because I am abroad using google fi and I am worried that I will have to set up my project fi again and I can't connect to a tower in the USA. (I am not sure if that will even happen, but I won't be back in the USA for a good few months so I don't want to risk it)
My phone says it updated yesterday, which I assume has caused this wifi problem (or a really big coincidence), but I can't find any information online about it.
I run the stock rom, it's not rooted, I have had no problems with any other things besides this.
Is anyone else experiencing this, or has experienced this before? Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve it?
It sounds like you are experiencing the same problem as everyone who forgot to update their vendor image after flashing the OTA. Had you been rooted, the simple fix would have been to flash the the MTC19X vendor image. With unrooted phone, I got nothing. The only possible solution would be a factory reset and to download and install the OTA again.

I don't touch anything or mod anything on my phones. The phone updates itself and as long as I am not running any custom roms I don't see why they wouldn't have a complete update that basically just spoon feeds my phone. Do you know if factory reset would reset my project fi?

I believe factory resets wipe the /data and /cache partitions of the device. All apps installed in /data are deleted, while apps in /system like project fi will have all its setting reset.
It's easy to resolve the iasue if your rooted, but since you aren't the next to last step you may try would be doing a network settings reset. Go to Settings>Backup and Reset>Network Settings reset. Just make sure that you are aware of your cellular data settings so you can set thing back up after the reset.
Hi together,
yesterday, suddenly, my OP8Pro stopped connecting to any WiFi Access Point AT ALL.
I tried it at home, at work, everywhere. I can still make a WiFi HotSpot without any problems, but cannot connect or save a AP in the setting. I see every AP without problems, but when i click on them, I'll get an error message.
I tried everything expect the factory reset. I cleared all network settings, all app setting, wiped the cache and so on. Even flashed the whole Beta 11 Image again.
Can somebody please give me an advice? I want to avoid the factory reset, because I want to wait for the EU-Rollback Update to only configure my device once again.
Thank you for your help
