[Q] Wifi passwords with 5.0 - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just updated my S5 to lollipop. Since then it won't remember any secure wifi networks if I restart the phone, so I have to type in my home router password everytime. It remembers open networks (restored them when I signed in to my Google account). When I put the password in it connects with no problems. Before I updated I didn't have any wifi problems. I've tried different routers/networks. I've tried factory resetting it and then not signing in to Google. None of that has helped. I've not been able to find any solutions anywhere, just people with similar problems. I'm on a rooted stock rom, 5.0.
Any ideas please?
Thanks

Play store problem. plz help.

Hey guys!!
I really need your help. Is My IP blocked by google? Playstore works fine on GPRS but when I try to download applications through Wifi on galaxy note it shows server error. When i click download, it say country not supported. It lets me download through GPRS. Can anyone pls help? 'this item can not be installed in your device's country'
Regards,
Abhi
It was working fine uptil now. I have been downloading applications since 6 months. Every time I try to login it gives me server error but it works fine through GPRS. One more thing, I can download all the apps which I had downloaded previously from my apps without any problem. I don't want to use market unable to resolve this. Can you please help?
search online for the app "market unlocker" or something like that,
makes you go to the market through proxies in different countries.
Market unabler, right? I don't want to use that. It's not a country problem I am sure because no one else from India is having such issue.
you may try and fix permission on bootloader. i had your same problem with a custom rom, i fixed permission and now it is ok. let me know how it goes
@PazzoPazzini
Ah! not using custom rom. I have not rooted the note yet. Just bought it before 2 days. My bro is facing same issue on same wifi. He has galaxy ace.
wifi goole play server error
me too hvng the same problem
Since when you are facing this problem? I am having this problem since one week.
No one seems to have solution for this. I found an alternative which might help few ppl. You have to turn on the GPRS first and click on download (any app you want to download from play store.). Once download animation starts, you can turn wifi on. Strangely, it allows to download through wifi then. Otherwise, I get an error that this item can not be installed in your country. I am not sure how long thing alternative will work.
I am having same same problem since yesterday. Error 921 or 941. I don't get it, because when I try download something on my S2 it does it without problems. But my Note doesn't download at wi-fi or over network data connection. Tried remove battery, restart the phone, nothing. Running everything stock, DBT latest firmware, unlocked phone on AT&T network with unlimited data.
My problem is solved now ... Remove all account information from account and sync by doing hard reset. Created another gmail account with US address. After that, unchecked the background data button and unabled it after some time. It started working without any problems

[Q]Unlocked Nexus 7 with 4.2.2 - Re-enable adb through NRT plus other stuff

Hey everybody,
I recently acquired a Nexus 7 tablet that came with 4.2.1.
I used Wug's NRT to Make a back up, Unlock it and then root it.
Few minutes later it asked me to update to 4.2.2, but silly me didn't think further on the consequences so I updated to 4.2.2.
Now I lost root, adb is offline and I can't use the NRT to install TWRP and restore to my 4.2.1 version.
I've ran NRT a couple times and even reisntalled the drivers to see if I could be able to do the previously mentioned operations by selecting "Any build" on the Root Toolkit but all my attempts have been unsuccessful.
So, my question is... what exactly am I supposed to do to get adb online and then root my device again. I already have the bootloader unlocked.
UPDATE: Well it may have been a driver problem since I'm using Windows 8. I switched to a Windows 7 computer and I was able to do the process flawlessly!
--------------------------
Problem number 2:
My Nexus can connect flawlessly to my home WIFI network, but when I try to connect to my school's public routers it goes on loop saying "Optaining IP..." , "Connecting...", etc.
I have tried switching the options to Static IP and putting in an IP (Say 192.168.1.50) and I can connect to the router, but I have no access to the internet.
This leads me to believe that this is a problem with the Gateway and DNS fields.
For DNS I left it as it was (8.8.8.8) and for Gateway IP I input 192.168.1.254 but I wasn't successful and I still couldn't connect to the internet.
Due to the fact that I was able to connect to the router, I believe it's not a problem with the Nexus' chip, I also think that the router configuration does not need to be edited in any way.
I believe it's the Gateway and IP fields that need to have the correct information, the problem is, that I don't know where/how to obtain that information.
When I checked on my home network and switched to Static IP, I saw how both Gateway IP and DNS were 192.168.1.254.
Maybe if I switch those addresses to that it'll work?
Also, I've been reading around that people have this problem mostly with 4.2.2. Do you guys think rolling to 4.2.1 will fix this problem? I rely on my tablet a lot when I'm on school and It would be a pain to have to go through the tedious process of finding the Gateway and DNS IPs of all the modems around the school.
Thanks.

There is no such option as "save password". the only option available is show password and show advanced settings. I have checked advanced settings also but there is nothing which saves password. After every restart it ask for password for the same network which it was connected earlier.
can anyone please help on this? I have tried flashing the stock rom firmware but still that has this issue, Even if I update to latest patches I still face this same wifi password issue.
I have also tried editing the build.prop file (on rooted version) but that even worse the situation as it prevented phone from booting beyond the samsung animation and then i had no option but to download stock firmware and flash it.
Thanks

[q] alexndr rom gpoi2 wifi issues.

Hello XDA users.
Im using a custom rom from ALEXNDR (GPOI2 - lollipop 5.0) for more than 5 months and everything works fine except that i always have to re-enter my wifi password.
I've updated my BL and CP but still no auto connect to my wifi.
wpa_supplicant.conf doesnt want to save my home wifi informations and keeps erasing it everytime i get disconnected from home network.
i tried to change permissions of wpa_supplicant.conf (data/misc/wifi) but it resets after reboot.
i had a WPA password and i decided to change it for a WPA-PSK but still no change.
Do you guys have any ideas on how to solve this ?
Up ! I really need help please !

Oneplus 5 does not connect to wifi networks

Hello!
My Oneplus 5 does not connect to any wifi networks. It is able to see all wifi networks in the range, and is also able to save the network if the password entered is correct, however, it won't actually connect to any network that is saved. I have tried using advanced options while connecting to a network to change from DHCP to Static settings, but it still won't connect to any network. I have also tried changing the wifi band frequencies (2.4 and 5 Ghz individually) to connect to a network but that too does not help. Mobile Data and carrier signal on the other hand work flawlessly, and so does bluetooth connectivity, NFC and personal hotspot (which is why I am very confused). I should also mention that when it fails to connect to a saved wifi network, it occassionally displays "Disabled" under the network SSID (replacing "Saved").
I have changed 3 different ROMs (LOS, stock OOS and No Limits ROM, even replaced the stock kernel with blu_spark r69 when I tried using No Limits and stock OOS to try and see if that fixed the problem), but the phone just won't connect to any detected/saved network using any of those ROMs. I have reverted it fully back to stock now (OOS 4.5.14 and stock kernel and stock recovery) and am still having the same problem.
Sorry if this issue has been solved before and if I am reposting something, but I really need this fixed ASAP and am not able to find a working solution after searching the forums and googling the whole day. Please help me! Thanks!
Edit: finally fixed the problem thanks to Ivints and PeterGuru. Check out the post that Ivints linked below (especially the comments in page 2 of the same)

Thank you so much Ivints! I'm trying to fix it right now with the solutions I got from the post.
I'm having exactly the same problem that the guy who started that post had. I'll let you know when I fix it and everything goes well again! Thanks again, bud!
if you want to stay on Nougat look for the O2N revert flash file it's in the Oxygen 5 beta threads that will let you get back to a nougat based rom.
The Oreo update touched other partitions outside of /system so those wifi drivers don't work with Nougat anymore

I see... I'll look for that thread and get the flash file! thanks! I'm currently using xXx's No Limits 9.2 OB03 ROM with bluspark 3.2.1 recovery and bluspark r77 (Oneplus 5). The only reason that I feel like reverting back to Nougat is that I want to be able to use Xposed again. So i guess I have that option in hand not too! Thanks, bud!
Hello there my friends, i have a problem with my op5
its about wifi: it doesn t see my wifi anymore. idk why
it s been connected to this wifi 2 years ,even after switching roms kernels, firmwares
and now , it doesnt see the wifi no more, actually it sees it, in `Saved` section, but when i press on it to connect
it says ` not in the area` but my other op6 its connected no problem
and i even tried through qr code, it says ` check ur connection and try again`
Just one add-on cause I was just a few minutes away from formatting my data. My OP5 unlocked rooted, rest stock, wasnt connecting to my home wifis (2,4ghz and 5ghz). I flashed a full ota zip. I deleted wifi bluetooth via backups settings.
But I found out that connecting to an iphone hotspot worked. So I entered manually the network SSID + password although the same network name was already in my wifi list (with marking: "saved"). I then clicked on the second "new" same wifi and it directly connected to my home wifi. Same happened to the 5ghz network. I then deleted the old 2 ones.
I have no idea why this happened, I only tried to get VoLTE/Wifi Call running with the magisk module. This might changed sth but I dont get the connection here since there should be no interference...
