Received my new OPT 1 month ago and have not been able to use it, Wi-Fi and SIM issues.
The unit will loose all network connectivity right off the set-up screen if you wait for 2 or 3 minutes, if you actually enter a valid Wi-Fi code, it won't connect but you reboot from there and it connects to the credentials you had just provided prior to reboot, I'f i complete the full setup and I'm lucky enough to not have the device reboot randomly, it will work until an app or the phone tries to access anything related to localisation, the Localisation icon will popup and then Wi-Fi and SIM's are both disconnected, Wi-Fi eventual comes back if you turn off the localisation icon but SIM's won't until you reboot the device.
I've flashed every official OOS ROM and tried on each same results.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Fresh flash of WM 6.5 over radio 3.42.50 on a Titan. Under Network Management, I've selected that "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using:" My Work Network, since I don't have a data plan. I go to Wifi settings, select Add New, put in the ssid, click through the security settings (temporarily disabled for this test purpose). My network shows up as "Unavailable". (I'm standing right next to the router). I click "Connect", it says "Connecting" for a couple of seconds and then goes back to "Unavailable".
What should I check first? I'm at my wits end.
You shouldn't have to "add new", your ssid should be automatically discovered and displayed in the list of wifi networks.
Did you connect to a wifi with your phone before, or is it a first attempt ?
Yes, I'd been connecting just fine until a few weeks ago. In fact, the refusal to connect was what prompted me to flash the thing -- figured that starting over might help.
So, your wifi connection was working well, but suddenly, for some obscure reason, it stopped working. Therefore, you decided to reflash your phone, but it didn't help, still not working.
Is that correct ?
I know I sound like a complete doofus, but yes, that's basically it. The weirdest thing is that every once in a while it'll find a wireless network and connect. But the connection never lasts for more than a few minutes, and then when it's gone the network is "Unavailable". And to anticipate your next question: There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for when it works. At this point I'm thinking I'll pick up a used Titan or Vogue on eBay and junk this thing.
Did you try a different rom ? Could be a faulty rom.
I've tried several different roms, yes.
this happens in some roms...

Hi, I've some problem with wifi connections. I own a lynksis wag54g2 wifi router. I can establish a connection, but after some times (it's not standard, it may vary), my device disconnect from the router and it's not able to reconnect. All that i can do is plug off my router (i take off the ac adapter) and when it's up again my phone can connect. it's very frustating, but i don't know what to do? i've tried setting something in wifi preferences' on my phone but nothing change. i've also flashed my firmware to the new one, hoping that it could fix that problem, but it didn't. someone could help me?
you can update the firmware to a newer one. this would fix your problem.

Hello.
I have a problem with WIFI on Galaxy 5 (i5500)(Europa) too. They have already changed my phone with new one, but the issue remains. So, for the second time now, I was able to connect my phone to my router for the first time, but after the first interruption or disconnection of WIFI I could not access to wifi anymore.
When I enable wifi in the phone starts ''connecting'' but then reports ''interrupted'' eventhough the signal is recognised as strong.
Firmwire version is the latest available. Router is encrypted with WPA2. Also I can access to router with my HTC Tattoo (Click).
Does anyone know the solution?
I have a decision to make(today), becouse If there is no solution to this I will change to another phone as I still can (Galaxy Spica).
Advise please.
Thanks a lot
What router do you have? have you tried with any other wifi network? i said that because my have this problem only with my router, and not for example with my girlfriend's one.
I found a little fix for my router, linksys wag54g2: open up the config page (192.168.1.1), go for wireless tab, select protection page and click on save settings. that reload the router and my phone is able to connect again.
Hi.
Thanks for your advice. There is some problem with router.. When I restart router the wifi on the phone works until swiched off or interruption becouse being out of range. When I try to connect to wifi again does not work unless I restart router again. ..catchy.. Interfering with mobile connection also makes the drop of wireless connection on my computer, so I need to restart router. I don't know the permanent solution. If anyone has any idea how repair this forever please let me know.
Best,
Thanks
Hi,
Here is my problem with my wifi with the galaxy 550.
For security reasons, my wifi network can't be detected (invisible). If i want to connect a new device by wifi, I must first set my wifi visible and then register my device.
Then I set my wifi as invisible again and the device can connect automaticaly to my network without "seeing" my wifi network.
Problem is that once i set my wifi as invisible again, my galaxy fail to connect because the network is unvisible.
Is there anyway to fix this ?
I have just read similar post on another thread and replied find it here
I ahvent installed anything, perhaps its to do with the handset if its locked to a particular carrier? just a guess and a question...
cheers

I have an answer! Hope it works for you.
My provider gave me really easy solution for wifi connection not connecting even though it was my own network with all the right info. It worked great the first time, then for some reason the phone locked in the "off" position. So I removed the battery to reboot (later learned the right way by pushing the volume button on the left and the power button at the same time)
Anyway, try this....
turn phone off - remove battery - remove sim card - wait a few minutes - reassemble - then the network should log on with no problem.....Good luck!

My Nexus 4 isn't connecting to wifi. More specifically, if I am connected to a remembered network, my phone does not automatically reconnect when I leave the range then come back into it.
Now, there are 2 wifi networks in the apartment and I've tried both. I actually just "forgot network" on the last remembered network on my phone because I was trying to connect to the better one.
Since I've done that, I am unable to connect to wifi at all, because the only way for me to connect to wifi before was to restart my phone and have it automatically connect to the remembered network.
Now that I don't have a remembered network, I cannot connect to anything, and my Wifi page on my phone will not show any wifi networks available and it won't even give the option to turn on wifi or to refresh the list. I have to reboot my phone, making sure the wifi is off first (using the toggle on the dropdown notification menu), then I can at least refresh the empty list. When I refresh the list, it gives me an error, "WPA failed. Retry in a few minutes."
I need this fixed. I live in a basement apartment and my cell signal is usually unavailable while I'm home.
I was running the AOKP 4.3 milestone when I started having the problem, then went back to stock, put on a 4.4 nightly ROM, had the same problem, then went back to the same 4.3 milestone. Unfortunately, I didn't leave my phone on stock 4.4 long enough to see if the problem persisted there.
Is there anything I can do at this point before going through the process of bringing my phone back to stock again?
Thanks
Update: After restarting my phone some 20 or more times, I was eventually able to see the list of networks and put the password in for the new network. So I at least have wifi now because my phone automatically connects.
However, all the problems stated above are still the same. I lose connection and cannot automatically reconnect when I go out and back into range of the signal, and can only regain the connection when I restart my phone and it automatically connects to the one known network on reboot.
If there's any information or anyway to try to fix it, I'd love to know.
Thanks
Hi,
I'm having some issues with sombree's CM12.1 port for the i9515.
* wifi: sometimes the phone disconnects from and won't reconnect to roaming wifi setups when changing the AP. Disabling and reenabling wifi helps. No problem with non-roaming wifi setups though.
* encryption: I tried to activate the phone encryption. Android said it would take a long time to encrypt the phone, asked for a password, rebooted and started the encryption. In a jiffy it went up to 100%, then 120%.. 140%.. etc. It took about 5 mins, then the phone restarted and asked for the password. Well, at least it tried to restart, but all applications went "stopped". The phone was unusable. When booting into recovery I found the phone's partitions encrypted. Anyways I had to do a factory reset and restore a backup to render the phone usable again.
* bluetooth: I managed to pair the phone with my Honda's hands free talk, but it won't connect automatically. I have to switch off and on the phone's bluetooth, restart the car, sacrifice a chicken and select my car in the phone's bluetooth settings and it *may* happen to connect. That's really annoying
Any ideas of what I can do to get that stuff working?
Kind regards
Brick

You cant do much about it, its the bugs for the rom you are on.
You can wait until these bugs are fixed or change your rom.
Darn. AFAIK there are exactly two roms I can use with my i9515: sombree's cm12.1 port and stock, are there any more?
Hello everyone!!!
I am facing an issue of my wifi connection with my home/office network after a security patch update of nougat 7.0.
Whenever i turn on my wifi, it connects with the saved networks, but after some time (which is random) it disconnect itself from that saved network. Then i have to reconnect it again and sometimes i have to give password for the saved network to reconnect. After a certain time wifi do not connects to my wifi adapter. my wifi modem is fine, and is running fine with other devices.
i am having this issue after update of security patch.
Can anyone help me to fix this issue, i have tried clearing cache partition and resetting my network settings and also i have turned off wifi scanning in location settings but nothing helped.
Please see if something can fix this issue ..
Thank You.
Same Goes To My Phone
Welcome to the new upgrade! I have the same issues that you described in addition to my Bluetooth. If I reset my phone Bluetooth doesn't come back on, I have to manually turn it back on...plus it has a bad habit of disconnecting even in the middle of phone calls. Whoever QA'd Nougat for the Droid Turbo 2 should be fired! I'm hoping for another upgrade to possibly fix these issues as I am stuck with this phone for almost another year (have 3 total) but I'm not holding my breath.
