I have a problem with my phone. The phone is completely original with the factory settings, with the latest updates from samsung.
I am connected to the router of my house without problems, network options (automatically reconect set) SMART NETWORK SWITCH IS OFF. BUT WHEN I LEAVE AND RETURN TO MY HOUSE, THE WIFI OF MY PHONE IS ON, BUT IT IS NOT RECONECT TO THE WIFI NETWORK AUTOMATICALLY. The phone is on 4g until unlock it, in this moment the phone reconect.
Another situation, I leave the wifi ON, if I enter in a place with public wifi, the phone is not conect to the network until I unlock it.
I try:
*. factory reset...........nothing
*. smart network switch (on/off) ...nothing
*.energy option (on/off)... nothing
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much!
My phone is doing the same thing. This is the first phone I've ever had that does not automatically reconnect to my home Wi-Fi or my work Wi-Fi. Any ideas?

Question - Is there a way to get the WIFI to re-connect to a secured wifi network after the phone goes to sleep? Since there are multiple secured networks in my area, its troublesome to open Setting -wifi- slect my network and reconnect manually each time the phone goes to sleep.
I'm using TNT's latest rom on a G3 Wizard now but had the same issue with the origional "Cingular" stock rom in the past.
I'm running Cyanogen 7.2 stable on my Droid 2
It seems I cannot successfully transition from wifi to 3g, or from 3G to wifi without hard resetting my phone. If I turn wifi on, then hard reset the phone, it will connect to my chosen access point, I'll get an IP address, and be able to use internet. But when I go into wifi settings and disable the WiFi, it will claim to connect the 3G but I will not be able to connect to any internet site. The notification area will show 3G icon in white, but never turn cyan to indicate a successful data connection. Trying to turn on airline mode does nothing, and the phone will not go into airline mode until I also, turn it off and turn it back off. Then it will reboot into airline mode. A simple soft reset doesn't seem to solve this problem, I have to preform a power off, and then turn it back on.
Conversely if I set it to use 3G and hard reset it will successfully connect to 3g and work fine, but turning on wifi will result in a connection to the access point but no actual data tansfer. Just as before it will show the connection option's icon on the notification bar will show the WiFi icon but it will say white, and never successfully connect. Alternately wifi will connect and the drop the connection repeatedly.
I've looked all over here, and Google for any working solution but I haven't seen any. Mostly just people having trouble connecting to a specific router, which I DO NOT have. Specially the hand-off to 3G and back seems broken and I have to do a hard reset 100% of the time to change from wifi to 3G and back.
Could somebody point me in the right direction for a solution that hopefully won't involve wiping my phone?
When I check "Settings-->Network" the Wifi section says "Connection Available". However, it won't automatically change to wifi from my 3G service. For example, if I leave home my phone switches to 3G, but when I return home it stays on 3G. I had no problems with this on KitKat.
I've tried rebooting my phone, forgetting my connection, playing around with some of the "Advanced wifi settings", but nothing seems to help.
I'm not absolutely sure, but I think my phone DOES automatically switch to the free wifi hotspots provided by my cell company. Could there be a setting my router that may help?
Lately I've been having serious trouble connecting to Wifi networks. This occurs both on my workplace network and home network. I have tried resetting my Network Config, but this didn't fix anything. The only thing I've found that will allow me to connect to Wifi is to restart the device - but I have to do this every time I want to connect to a different Wifi network than I was connected to previously.
One strange thing that happens with this is that when I disable Wifi - whether it be via quick settings or in settings - it doesn't actually disable Wifi. The toggle switches to off, but I'm still able to see nearby Wifi networks. The only way to fully disable Wifi is to enable Airplane Mode.
This has been happening recently since I performed a Factory Reset, flashed the latest factory image, and rooted.
Anyway, any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
UPDATE: Looks like switching from Automatic Wi-F- frequency band to 2.4 GHz fixes the issue, but that's not really ideal, as I prefer my 5 GHz network at home.
I am not sure what the problem could be or whether I have to change some settings but my phones wifi as well as the Bluetooth don't work as expected.
I connect to the wifi at home, then if I go out i switch it off, when later in the evening I turn it on again, it doesn't auto connect (despite me clicking the auto-connect checkbox when putting the password) and I have to go back to settings click on the desired wifi and put the password again; this happens also when I restart my phone( it keeps asking me for my password)
The same goes with the bluetooth, on my s6 it would connect automatically to my car Bluetooth once I went through the initial settings, now even after the initial pair, it doesn't connect unless I put my bluetooth device on discovery mode again.
It's a rooted s8 with MAGISK,twrp installed on it.
I have tried to reset network and other setting,clear cache but no success.
any advice?
