OK this is really pissing me off. Everyone time I go on my nexus device it doesn't automatically connect to the WiFi.. I have to either disable the WiFi and reenable it. Or just click on my network and click connect (it says its saved but doesn't automatically connect when I turn on my device), i tried everything from forgetting every saved network, restarting me device, ect, and its not my routers problem, my DNA connects automatically when I turn it on. Any of you guys had this problem? If so what did you do to fix it?

what router? My nexus 7 is fine and so is my sgs1.
No idea what router I have but that's not the problem, problem is that when I turn on my nexus and get passed the lockscreen, the WiFi would normaly automatically connect. It for some reason stopped doing that and it gets really annoying manually connecting

Hi,
I share the same problem. Upon a reboot, it will work normally for a while.
Once they symptoms starts, it will refuse to connect most of the time. When it does connect, it will disconnect within a couple of minutes. WPS wont respond either. toggle wifi/airplane mode does not work either.
The only way is to reboot.
However, I did have some findings but couldnt get it fixed! Do this and test if it works for you as well:
Go to terminal (needs to be rooted device):
Simply select the "Take wifilock/B]" option and it will stay connected!
Release it and it will get disconnected and back to the same issue.
Hopefully some experts can give us some pointers?
Temporary fix
I have the same problem. This is what i did to fix it: Settings- Wifi settings- advanced- switch always on to Never, reboot in recovery, clear cache, reboot your device and go back and turn Wifi back to Always on. this is a temporary fix because if you reboot or shutdown your device, you will need to redo the steps. this is a known problem with google's 4.2 jellybean. we need an update soon!
hope it helps you.
Thanks for your help

It won't be much comfort to you, but remember that "it takes two to tango".
Yeah, there's IEEE standards for all of this stuff. Do interop problems still happen? All the frigging time, every day. Sure it is maddening.
And sometimes the problems only manifest themselves with an exact pair of firmware(s) releases between the AP and the client device. I had a WiFi router that would gladly talk to four or five unique types of devices; on the sixth - an Android phone - it would associate & authenticate successfully, but the client device would never get an IP address.
That sure sounds like a problem with the phone, doesn't it?
How did I fix the problem? I upgraded the firmware ... on the router !
Sometimes problems with intermittent connections can be rectified by fooling with things that you might think have no bearing on the problem. For instance, some routers will accept connections in A/B/G/N mode. Do you need all of those? If not, simplify your router's behaviors by disabling non-essential features, e.g. select G-only or N-only.
That's just an example - but the point is that the fewer behaviors either of the devices engage in, the lower the probability that the bug which is shared between them will get expressed.
So, you can either fool around with both devices, only one of them - changing one setting at a time to see if that alters the behavior you observe, or you can throw one device away and start all over with new combinations of devices. The router probably has more knobs which can be turned than the phone does (unless it's not your router, or you don't control it).
Good luck

Iv been having the same problem as a few others where when I turn on my Wifi sometimes it will connect within seconds and other times it will be stuck on 'optaining ip address'.
Im currently on redpill v4 with kholks 1.2ghz kernel but have switched between different roms and kernels and it wont stop!
The other kernel I use is fauxs 1.3ghz kernel and can't find a certain fix for the problem

It's most likely a router problem, not a phone one. Look for updates for your router software, they might fix those kind of stuff
PS: You can always set up fixed IP addresses on your phone if it's still an issue.

The OP meant the toggle switch sometimes connects and other times gets stuck obtaining IP. You have to push scan manually to get the IP at all. Not a router problem as it is sending the wifi, but sometimes the phone is not registering its there.

I have a slightly different problem. When I'm at home on my network, I always connect, fine and dandy, with no interaction needed from me.
At work, we have an open network, but one that requires you to open a browser and agree to the terms and conditions before you can browse. That's probably not anything to do with the issue, but my phone will get stuck in a scanning.... connecting.... disconnected loop. It will never say obtaining IP address during this loop. And then all of a sudden, I'll look at my phone, and there will be the wifi bars in the header. It just all of a sudden decides to work. SHRUG.

something i tried and has seemed to work. if you go into wifi settings then press the menu key you will see an advanced option. in there is a wi fi sleep police. i changed mine to never from never when plugged in even though it was never plugged in and so far so good.
So I've been using my Kindle Fire for a couple of weeks now, and I've found a problem that's been hindering my use.
When I am (decently) far from my router, my Wifi on the Kindle Fire keeps dropping and then it reconnects. The connection is still at around 2 bars whenever it does it. I don't understand, because with my smaller phone (HTC Sensation 4G), my Wifi does not do this...
Is this a firmware issue (I am not rooted) or is it unique to my device? I have updated the firmware and everything...
Thanks.
I've been running into this exact problem (non-rooted KF). For the first few weeks, I had zero issues.
Now suddenly, I can't seem to stay connected for more than a few minutes at a time.
Even standing literally next to the router produces the same results.
I use plenty of other wireless devices in the house and I've never ran into any of these problems.
I'm using a Netgear WNDR4500; not a cheap router by any means.
I did a little research the other day, this seems to be a somewhat well-documented problem. Doesn't seem like any solutions have been found yet, though. I noticed the problem only seems to happen when the Kindle has been on standby for a few days. A restart seems to stop all the disconnects, at least for a few days.
maybe cleaning up saved networks helps
to do this:
disable wifi
open /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf and delete everything exempt the first two lines:
Code:
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
update_config=1
save the file (beware the permissions rw-rw----)
enable wifi
you start with a wifi configuration like out of the box

KF's WiFi does seem to be a bit wonky... I've had trouble associating with networks a few times, required a reboot/toggling WiFi on and off.
Does anybody have this problem with a custom rom? If not, it could be Amazon trying to do something funky with powersaving. On my dm1z, if I set my WiFi adapter to "max power saving mode", I see very similar behavior...
The wifi on the kindle is great....it probably has to do with interference in your network. Try changing the channel you use for your network.
So, I compared another kindle fire to mine and it did not have the problem...I guess I will be calling amazon for a new one.

There's no 2.4ghz network within about 1500 feet of my home (and I know what channel that network is on), so I really doubt that's the problem.
As I stated above, as soon as I restart the KF, the wifi works perfectly for a while. It's only happens after the KF has been on standby for about 4-5 days; that's when the connectivity issues start.
The only reason I'm here (over the amazon forums) is because people here actually know what they are talking about. Everyone over there has the generic "it's your network" response. I manage networks for a living, something is most definitely not working correctly on the KF. When the parents came over, I had them test their KF (I made sure it was on standby for at least a few days); I had no problem staying connected.
I have the same issue and I'm running CM7. I'm constantly having to disable and then re-enable wifi to jump start it. Phones never have this issue on my home network and this is the only network that my Kindle has ever connected to.

my wifi on my fire is stronger than on my infuse
Wifi strength isn't the issue for me, it's plenty strong.
The issue is that it cuts out in the middle of me using it, which leads to me turning wifi off and then back on.
Mine does this after it's been on standby for awhile, The wifi won't turn on and i have to do a reboot to get it working. had the problem with KF 6.2.1 And CyanogenMod7, seems to be the hardware.

only a possibillity:
do you use manual ip-settings on the kf ? - it don't seem to like that
and if you switch wifi off and on again instead of rebooting - does it work again ?
seems to be a common problem ...
I don't use manual ip settings.
Turning Wifi off and then back on works for me but it's kind of annoying.
I too have had this happen twice since I got my fire 12/23. There is no problem with anything else connected to the network. Turning the network on and off does not help nor does rebooting the kindle. I have run wifi analytics and it does not see my network. The only solution is to reboot the router. I have not rooted mine yet either.
If this is a known problem with the fire hardware I will need to contact CS. Hopefully I will not need to go to the hastle of returning it.
i have this problem too - very rare but have it also - reboot the router and everything is ok again - every other device connects flawlessly - seems like a problem of the router (linksys 160nl)
First - Hi all, long time reader but this is the first time I've needed to start a thread - so sorry about my first post being a problem/Q!
I've not had my Nexus 4 long, but have got some pretty annoying Wi-Fi issues. I've searched for answers but it seems that people have different Wi-Fi problems and I just wanted to see whether my issue was a common one and, if so, is there a fix on the horizon?
My issue is that I can connect to some routers but not to others (work, home, most open networks)... when I connect it simply says "saved, secured with WPA/WPA2" but wont then connect.
Phones running stock 4.2.1 with franco kernel r28 and the things I have tried are:
Resetting routers
Assigning static IP address
Wi-Fi direct from my Nexus 7
Cleared cache from recovery
changed the Wi-Fi band from 'Auto' to 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz
Flashed new kernel
Very frustrating and because of my signal the lack of Wi-Fi has made me go back to my old phone while I wait for a fix... which connects perfectly to the networks (S3 running CM 10.1)
Is this a 4.2.1 issue - as seems to be the consensus with other Wi-Fi issues or possibly a hardware issue?
Thanks for any info!
There's one fix you've not tried which might work for you (it didn't for me). You would have to be rooted though, which is going to system/etc/dhcpcd and changing the permission on dhcpcd-run-hooks to read and execute from "others". This help some people out but turns out for me that my router isn't compatible with my phone. (DSL-2780).
I've noticed that some of the mobile devices(eg iPhone 3gs, SGS2) are quite sensitive to wireless channel which your router/ap broadcast on.
Try manually switch to channel 6 or 8 that solved my issue - I don't believe in incompatible routers usually problems are related to config.
It is more complicated with an access to the public WiFi as you can not modify the setup.

i have a problem in my nexus 4 wifi ... it don't connect automatically to wifi network ,, i have to turn wifi off and turn it on to connect !!! any solution ??
On my Nexus 10, about 2 weeks old, and running most current version of Android, non-rooted, I can connect to wifi networks, but I do not have access to the internet. It just started today after having no issues whatsoever since I purchased it. It also just happened randomly today out of the blue. For further information, in the top right corner where the wifi "baseball diamond" is, the bars are that grey/white instead of the typical blue. Which I know means that I am connected to the network but without internet access. I have tried restarting my device both powering it off and on, and simply restarting it by holding down the power button. I have tried turning wifi off and on. I have tried the same with airplane mode as well. None of it has worked. I was wondering if anyone knew of any fixes for this issue? Thanks and any help is appreciated.
First I would get the IP of the nexus by long pressing the Wi-Fi network.
Then go on your pc connected to the same router and ping the ip.
For Windows, press Windows, type cmd.exe, enter, then
ping 192.168.1.x
But put in the real address instead.
If you get a reply with a ms value, your tablet is really connected.
If it times out or you get 100% packet loss, then it really isn't connected, or is unresponsive on the network.

When the bars are grey it doesn't necessarily mean that you don't have internet. The bars only turn blue when you are connected to the Google Talk servers. They are blocked at my work but I still have internet access with grey bars.

So everything worked fine yesterday after doing this. But today it reverted back to what it was doing. Tried pinging the ip again but it didn't work and it gave me 100% packet error or whatever
The ping had nothing to do with it working again, it was just a coincidence. You're having the same wifi problem a lot of us are suffering.
it has to do with the dns settings of the network I am using. And it just seems to come and go in terms of working. Hopefully it is fixable problem within the software
I am having a similar problem, but it happens sporadically and oftentimes fixes itself after about 30 seconds. Is this a known problem and is it hardware? Also, sometimes when I go to open the play store I will get a "No connection" message with the option to retry even when I am fully connected (blue bars and everything). The retry almost always works too. I am curious why this happens and if the two issues are related. Thanks for the forum, folks.

Yes, this is a known problem many are experiencing and is most probably software, unfortunately google seems to have a hard time getting their fat fingers off their arse.
Same issue has been driving me crazy. I have to turn Wifi off and on again.
The other, really annoying issue is that when I turn Wifi on in my bedroom, it still connects to the living room router with terrible wifi reception, instead of the nice strong signal from the office router just next door, I have to tell it explicitly connect to the office one.

Have you unlocked the Developer Options yet? If not, goto Settings -> About Phone then tap build number 10 times to unlock. Enable "Stay Awake" in the Developer Options and connect your phone via your PC. Observe your wifi connection and get back to me
EDIT: How complicated is your home network? Are you using your router as a straight forward access point?

Running DDWRT.....very straightforward. Nothing complicated. I have Kindle Fire HD's......HTPCs.....etc running without an issue. All DHCP. This Nexus 4 is the only thing that has ever had issues.
The thing that I'm not understanding.......why is it being thrown a 172 IP address unless I turn DHCP off on the phone? Cuz as soon as I set it static (to a 192) it works fine.
Hmm DD-WRT, I'm going to hazard at a guess and say you know what you're doing when it comes to networking so I won't insult your intelligence or anything. But, if you're willing, try playing around with your router's DHCP setup before doing anything else and see how your phone goes by trial and error.
Come to think of it, unless anyone on these forums has experienced this before, trial and error is the best way of understanding. My best guess is the issue resides within the code of 4.2.2 FW. Hypothetically and possibly inadvertantly it has already been debugged for use on a custom rom. Some of the apk's found on the app store may shed some light onto the issue. WIFI Fixer apk may be help

Do you have your "keep wifi on during sleep" setting at always? If you've already eliminated that as the issue, try wiping the delvik cache in CWM. I had a similar problem once when I used CM9.1, wiping delvik cache solved it.
If there's no joy, copy and post up a logcat or consider a custom rom like aokp 4.2.2 build 4 :good:
