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,
I recently flashed CM 7.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550469) on my girlfriend's phone and ever since she hasn't been able to send texts from time to time.
Her network also seems to be switching, she has a Virgin Prepaid card but now her network switches between Orange and T-Mobile (UK). She sometimes is able to send texts, but usually she can't.
I have no idea what's causing this? I'm thinking of going back to stock rom, but I can't find it anywhere.
I hope somebody can help us,
Thanks!
wiped data / factory reset ?

Already reflashed the rom (with data wipe / factory reset), same problem.
Also had this problem, with PCFighter's Cm7, the only thing that worked was reboot when this happened. Also try to switch on & off airplane mode, to see if it reconnect, but usually I had to reboot. Don't know if this could be useful.

A reboot doesn't help I'm afraid.
Hello I have a rooted Galaxy S5. My bluetooth was working fine as of yesterday now today when I go to turn it says turning on and then just goes back to off...the only thing I've done as of late is edited a system file to allow write capabilities to the SD card and installed pandora patcher...please let me know if you have any suggestions to a fix...thanks!
Ps I've tried reboot, clearing cache, and taking the battery out

I'm actually experiencing the same problem.
I don't know how long it's been going on, as I typically don't use BT. I'm experiencing the same symptoms as the OP - I try to turn it on - it tries to come on - then goes back off.
I've disabled much of the bloatware, so I opened TiBu to see if there's anything that I've frozen that might cause BT issues. None of them would seem to cause the BT issues I'm experiencing.
Any ideas for me/us to try?

How did you get this fixed, I'm having the same problem: Edited file to allows 3rd party apps to write to the SD card, but had issue so reverted to backup file I created prior to editing original. But BT still not functioning even after numerous reboots.
same here
Same problem here. I noticed bluetooth stoped working after installing juice defender. Dont know if thats the cause. But clearing cache, factory reset, uninstalling apps, etc. Hasnt worked.I read where someone reflashed in odin and it worked. Will an odin flash void knox or my warranty? Sprint galaxy s5 rooted. Stock rom
Same problem here...
I have done factory reset, clean wipe via recovery and reinstalled rom.
Still the Bluetooth acts as if it is goona turn on but does not.
Problem fixed but at a cost
I had the same problem thats being discussed in here.
I was rooted with stock rom on the latest build NK2, I also modified the xml file so I could write to the ExtSdCard and it didnt work so I put it back to original and somehow my bluetooth got messed up after that. I would attempt to turn on but would only go back to off.
What I did was I unrooted by going into CF SU settings and chose the unroot option, I flashed the stock nk2 firmware and did a factory reset and that got bluetooth working for me again.
I'm going to stay unrooted until lollipop drops for Verizon S5.
Hope this helps somehow.
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
