Have noticed about once a day at random times, my wifi and data signal will disappear when using the phone. I have to switch airplane mode on and back off to get my connections back. Not a major Issue, but slightly annoying.
Anyone else have this problem or know the cause?

I'm having an issue where my wifi icon disappears but I'm still connected to wifi. Also, the toggle is grayed out. Pretty annoying. I'm on the Sprint GS5.

The toggle is greyed out on mine too and cannot switch it back on. The only difference is that I loose wifi and network connection. Mine is o2 UK unbranded handset.
Update: my connections are still active when this happens.

I'm getting the same thing here, the data and wifi icons occasionally disappear and the wifi toggle goes dark (as if it's not connected), but I'm still connected and get data just fine.
Do you reckon this is a hardware or software fault?

I did install adblock (unrooted) for about 30 minutes and then removed it when I first got my phone. Not sure if the problem started before or after.

Would be nice to find out the reason why this is happening.

It didn't happen yesterday so will wait for next samsung update and see if that solves the problem. Unless it gets worse then I will factory reset.
update : shortly after I posted this it happened again so I tested the connection and I was still connected to wifi.

Hi there!
I'm having a really bad problem at the moment on my s4 (i9505). Recently I upgraded from stock (MDE) to pre-rooted (MF8). Since then, my WiFi has stopped working, and it seems to be the only thing that has gone wrong. When I toggle WiFi on, it immediately toggles off (both in the quick settings, and through the settings panel). When I mean immediately, I mean within 1/10 of a second.
I flashed another ROM over it (OMEGA V7) and nothing changed.
I feel as though I've missed something vital, and would rather work on a fix for it rather than flash stock through Odin and start from scratch. Any help is very much appreciated.
Check settings in WiFi. There is an option for using cell or WiFi based on which one is faster, disable it.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I already had that off (selected off by default).
Also check if your wifi timer is on.

Ive had this issue before when my kernel and modem are mismatched but also when a weird setting is enabled... and I cant remember what it is.
Try a factory reset but do not restore your phone settings from google... only your contacts

So wifi will not turn on no mattrr what ?
And your not in airplane mode ?
This is beyond me then... I hope your hardware wasnt messed up.
Does your wifi still have a mac address ?

Not in Airplane mode.
I still have a mac adress.
No idea what's wrong. I literally JUST flashed a ROM. I've been doing this for almost 3 years and never have I seen an issue like this.
Might take the phone back.

I can't really say why this happens but a lot of times with this phone it seems that the MAC address to the wifi is somehow lost and by removing the /data/.cid.info file you can somehow reset something that makes things work again. I assume it's somehow tight to different wifi network chip drivers in different kernels but I'm not sure. On some ROM's I have tried I have to do this on every boot...

Is it a phone or software issue?

Had the same issue. I get an error something to effect of "Wifi disconnected because internet is connection is slow". I seemed to correct it by going to Wifi advanced settings and unticking box for Always Allow Scanning and Auto Network Switch.
Is this similar to the 4.2 note 2 issues?

Out of the blue I've lost my Wi-Fi capability on my S4.
I've restarted & turned off the phone to no avail. My phone shows up on my router's control panel as active as well as a couple of apps I have.
I've also forgot the connection & reentered all necessary info. Mobile connectivity is fine but as soon as I switch Wi-Fi back on, no tweets, FB notifications, etc.
Suggestions, ideas? TX

I don't want you to root either. It sounds like to me that it's a hardware issue with your phone.
Well, even though my router gave all indications that it was picking up the phone I tried a hunch. Rebooted the router & Wi-Fi is back!

Have any of you guys tried turning this on? When I try setting always force closes.
UPDATE: I got it working. All of the devices I had that it didn't work on. Had to factory reset. If it doesn't work do it again. If that doesn't work do it again. I got them all working, and some of them took 3 factory resets. At least they are working now.

Already tried that. So I know it isn't an app.

Yeah its kinda odd. My partner also received his model (ATT) and doesn't have this issue.
Can't figure it out for the life of me. I just tried 5 different edges. 3 of them crash and the other two don't. All T-mobile versions. Waiting for friend with AT&T versions to reply and see what they say.
