I've posted it in a few places so I may as well ask here:
Trying to find a fix as it's rather annoying: I can connect to my Phantom 3 but as it has no internet connection, android asks to stay connected and also asks if to remember and not ask again. I can set it to stay connected and it works, if I also tick to not ask again it will connect, but on attempting to reconnect on the next occasion, it will show as its connected but won't actually work and it requires forgetting and repairing to the network. Not a long job but rather annoying. It seems to be a Lineage bug as stock firmware is fine, my Note 2 with a LOS ROM has the same issue

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...
go2 wireless lan settings and then go2 power mode.change it to best perfomance frm best battery
Hi, my 8525 suddenly can't use WIFI. It do show the icon on top of screen indicating that I am connected to a hot spot. But when I open IE, I can't open any web page. I can do it hours ago, and that time I visit gmail.com, download its application to MIDlet and then use WIFI to check my mail box. Also I visit Ebuddy.com and download and setup its application.Both of them run okay. But when I turn on the phone tonight. WIFI doesn't work well. IE just keeps locating... and gives no response for a long time and finally tells me "The Page cannot be displayed or download because the connection was lost." I want to know what happens and what I can do to solve this problem.
In addition: Now I unlock both SIM and Supper CID using this webpage's guide:
http://www.windowsmobilecool.com/2008/08/how-to-unlock-your-htc-tytn-aka-hermes/
But I don't know how to check whether I already have unlocked Super CID? I try a T-Mobile SIM and it works well. So at least it is SIM Unlocked now.
often it's enough just to pull the plug from the wifi router for 10sec
happens with all wifi routers think it's their dhcp which get confused but mobile device
because I dont get the same problem with laptops and desktops connecting with wifi
another thing which could fix it would be the update the router with the latests firmware
as they fix bugs with newer wifi devices once in awhile and then release new firmware for their routers
Thanks Rudegar, I solved this problem last night. The problem is caused by an application I use on my phone. China Mobile Fetion. Since China is a country forbid the WIFI function on phones officially sold there, some software application from Chinese companies and programmers set GPRS as their default connection method, and I mistakenly choose let this software setting the connection function automatically and it just adjust all program's default connection as CM GPRS. After delete all GPRS settings on phone, the WIFI works well.

I've noticed that my [rooted] Vibrant frequently has trouble connecting, or staying connected, to WiFi networks.
At first I thought it was specific to my Verizon Actiontec WiFi router, however I've also noticed this at my office, where we use Motorola routers, as well as a few other locations that I frequent.
It's still possible that its a site-specific problem, but, less likely as I'm seeing this in a few locations.
Symptoms:
I configure my phone to connect to X network.
It successfully connects and all it fine.
I get out of range, it no longer sees network X and disconnects.
Some time later I return to my previous location and expect that in N seconds/minutes the phone will automatically reconnect.
A considerable amount of time passes and I notice it's still not connected.
I check the wifi settings and it days connection unsuccessful.
I tap the network, click connect and it works.
I've also noticed this after connecting to a network and the phone goes to 'sleep' or into an idle state. When a wake it up, it doesn't always automatically reconnect.
Anyone else seen this?
Any suggestions?
Many thanks.
i've had that problem. i am not sure what it was because I was rooted and Ryaned. I got sick of all the stupid lil bugs and had to wipe format and unroot. Now that I am back to the original condition, theres this sense of comfort knowing if something buggy happens, it's not "my" fault.
Thanks for the reply.
I noticed this prior to rooting and 'Ryan'ing'.
The capacitive buttons don't work all that well from time to time - specifically the Home button so maybe I should just exchange it. I'll call TMO tomorrow to see what they say.
Since yesterday, my Samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 [GT-P3110] with CM 9.1.0 refused to connect to the internet over WiFi, so i thought of some issues with the tablet and installed wififixer and noticed something strange.
In the log i saw a lot of time this
Code:
>Network Check:
>I/O Exception{gateway ip address}:HTTPFail:Xms
>Network Check failed: trying again
Another strange thing was that it was trying to connect to baidu.com.
Being installed an older version i then did a factory reset and upgrade it to the latest CM11 nightly.
The update went smoothly, and now the wifi tried to connect to google.com [goodbye baidu.com] but as before, no internet connection.
Then i tough about a modem problem, and deleted the modem profile of my tablet [did the same on my tablet for the wifi profile]. still nothing, then i decided to change modem and connect the tablet to my phone via tethering, as ever nothing.
I searched a bit the net and downloaded some wifi fixer, changed the ip setting to static, changed some setting but nothing.
Sometimes the tablet seems to connect to the internet [in fact i was able to configure the google account and download a single app], but this last for a couple of second and then nothing [i don't even know what happened for making it to connect].
I hope someone have time to help me and thanks for the attention
EDIT: my fault, sometimes it continue trying to connect to baidu and not google
So after my my tablet updated to lollipop, everytime I logged onto a wifi network there was this notification that asked me if I know what I was doing. The choices were
1. Yes, disconnect me
2. No, stay connected.
There is always an remember the choice on this device.
I checked remember and then accidentally pressed yes disconnect me. So I couldn't connect to that specific wifi network at all. I couldn't find the setting anywhere to reset it.
After 10 mins I found the issue. It's Mcafee. There's a choice for web security. Turn off Wi-fi Security. That will fix it. Or you could uninstall Mcafee as well.
Hope this helps anyone that makes the same mistake. Ugh.
