problem with wlan - Touch Pro, Fuze General

anyone can help me?
i have the problem, that if i turn wlan on, it turns off automatically within 5 seconds....

maybe it's a timeout where if you don't connect to a network it turns off the wifi in order to save battery life? if so, probably a registry value to be tweaked somewhere. otherwise, maybe a more serious problem.

Is it when you are connected to your comp with active sync?
theres a setting that disables data connections when connected
in WinMoDevCentre go to Mobile Device settings -> Connection Settings -> Allow Data connections (last checkbox)
weird setting but that fixed it fine for me

WiFi automatically turning off (i.e. won't stay on)?

Hey,
Just flashed Dutty's v2 Fixed on AT&T Tilt SIM/CID Unlocked. I turn WiFi on, connects to my network and turns right off on its own. A soft reset, and it stays on. Any insight?
Radio: 1.27.12.11
Protocol: 22.45.88.07H

I found v2 had more stuff? Like the cube, and more apps. Guess I'll do v3 and grab some cabs. Hope I don't RLoD it
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Wireless Lan -> Power Mode -> Auto turn off WLAN if not connected
Maybe this will help ... just check it ... I'm not sure about "if not connected".
Good luck
"if not connected" means that if the device is not connected to any network - since the wifi is turned on, after 2 minutes it will turn the wifi off. this is done in order to preserve battery life.
With these settings enabled, if you are connected to a hot spot somwhere and leave the wifi area it will turn your wifi off automatically.
If you want your wifi to stay "always on" even if not connected you can uncheck that box

Such setting doesn't exist on Kaisers. Is there a reg setting that enables it on that page?
Hi
i have the same problem as you.
Whenever i use VOIP on my kaiser, i have to resort using ear piece. If not the sound will be from the speaker phone, not the internal speaker, which is already a addressed problem in WM6 (I'm using Fring).
Thus when i use ear piece, it means it cannot be connected to a charger if i talk long hours. My screen must be left on all the time while im on VOIP, if not after seconds later, my WIFI connection will be off. Same goes for bluetooth. the screen will drain my battery within 3 or 4 hours.

Wifi stops working after being left for a while (still connected)

Having an issue with the Tab 2 where you go to pick it up and start browsing after it has been sitting around a while (not sure if the time matters, but it seems like after sitting for most of the day) and the wifi is still connected, but nothing works than needs data. It acts like it would if you had not internet connection. Toggling the wifi off and on will fix the issue and notificaitons and emails start pouring in.
Anyone else have this problem? I found a similar issue on the 7.7 forums but nobody reported a solution and I am not even sure if it would have worked on the Tab 2 anyways. I am thinking about making a script that toggles the wifi automatically if it detects it can't connect to the internet. But that is a little ridiculous needing to do that. It shouldn't be losing connection in the first place.
Hi Pirate
it's a bit depending on the ROM you have installed - but since Android 4 you have a quite reliable setting. The default behavior of Android devices is to deactivate the wifi connection when it goes to sleep.
Some ROMs don't recognize the disconnection and the switch/button still shows "Wifi on" although disconnected.
First step: go to settings / wifi settings, hit the menu button (top right three dots) and check the advanced settings.
Somewhat like "Keep WLAN active in standby" - set this to always.
That should solve it already under android 4.x
If this doesn't help, look into Play Store - search for "wifi keep alive". But for the SGT 2 you shouldn't need it

It was already set to "Always" so I don't think that will help. I will look at that app to see what it does.

wifi turns off when not in use to save battery. I think it might be a default even if you have it set to always on.

The problem is that it never comes back on. Well it shows the wifi icon and the signal and everything but it just doesn't have any data connection. Any apps that use data act like wifi is off. The only way to get it to start working again is to toggle wifi or reboot. I also forgot to mention it is the stock ROM, only rooted. It got the OTA a few days ago too and it has happened since then.
You're not alone

It's the same effing stuff people suggest to every wifi glitch out there.
To people who think it's due to the wifi sleep policy: although I've set it to always, why would wifi not resume, after screen is turned on? It's not the wifi that gets disconnected, it's the internet (or the download speed) that stops working.
To people who suggest it's a power saving feature under low battery conditions: Sorry, I've tested it while charging and with full battery.
To people with the above two arguments: Connection to some routers works perfect with the phone. Like when I turn on the hotspot on another phone, the wifi works great. Also, wifi on the other phone from the same source (laptop used as internet access point) works well.
To people who suggest resetting the router or wifi on phone: The internet does start working again, but only for a few minutes. Even if the screen is turned on, the internet may stop working mid-download.
The actual situation is that the phone disconnects from the internet, but keeps showing a connection to wifi. Like I used connectify hotspot to create an access point, and after a few minutes, the phone moved from "connected clients" list to the "previously connected clients", even as the phone showed connected to wifi with even the download arrows blinking, but no internet (or download speed). This only happens with certain sources (of wifi). And other phones may work well with the same source.
I have tried (several times and in different orders and permutations) the following to no effect:
1. Resetting the router.
2. Resetting the wifi on laptop.
3. Resetting the wifi on phone.
4. Restarting the phone and laptop.
5. Static IPs, gateways and DNSs. (Even though the problem was not with connecting to wifi and even internet works momentarily after resetting wifi).
6. Turning off items controlling wireless network in wireless connection properties.
7. Turning off firewall.
Waiting for a savior.
I know this isn't super helpful but I had the same bug you describe on the previous version of carbon. When I updated to the latest it seems to have stopped.

Same issue. also using connectify and also tried all things you have described. If you find any solution please let me know.
I had the same problem on my Huawei Honor. You need to set static IP in wifi settings (when connecting to AP, press "show advanced settings").
Mine settings were:
IP adress: 192.168.1.75 (make sure other devices are not connected with this IP)
Gateway: 192.168.1.254 (it could be different. Use the same as you're using to connect to your router)
Network prefix length: 24
DNS 1: 8.8.8.8
DNS 2: 4.4.4.4
No option for static IP in connectify

There is no option in connectify for static IP and in USB wifi dongle also there is no option to set static IP.

1. I have had the exact same issue for (atleast) the past 2 years. Have survived by repeatedly turning wifi on and off.
2. I too use connectify. This issue doesnt seem to happen on every wifi connection (just like your case). Even more specifically, it seems to happen ONLY when I connect my phone to the hotspot created via my laptop (connectify).
3. Even when the internet is actually working, some apps do not seem to recognise that(take some time to realize it is working), while others are able to connect instantly. Specifially, whatsapp is unable to send/receive messages for about 1-2 mins, after which I receive a whole bunch of messages at once.
This does not seem to be an issue due to connectify as well. I have tried creating a hotspot from my laptop without using connectify as well, but unfortunately, nothing changed. Further, this does not happen when my phone connects to a hotspot created via connectify by some other pc. The wifi and internet work perfectly fine when connected to a hotspot created via my friends computer.
Further, this problem happens only when a mobile connects to the hotspot. Doesn't occur when another laptop/PC connects (not sure about tablets).
I have looked into every nook and cranny on the internet, explored every forum for any working solution, but have been unsuccessful. In fact, this is the first place where I saw the exact same problem as mine, and was wondering if you have found any solution to it .

I'm having the exact same prob on my ZTE Grand x V 970
It started when i had kitkat and i couldnt even "fix it" restarting the wifi, i had to reset the phone in order to have my wifi work for like 2-5 mins and then stops recieving data, tried to reconnect and stays on turning on wifi.. Now i changed to the stock Rom and the problem is still there but at least now i can "fix it" restarting the wifi connection until certain point.
Issue sharing internet with Connectify from PC
Go to:
Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center
On the left column, click on CHANGE ADAPTER SETTINGS.
You should be in: Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections by now.
Then click on: Microsoft Virtual Miniport Adapter and click on Properties, then click on the 'Configure' button in the 'Networking' tab. From this window, go to the 'Power Management' tab and uncheck 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'.
This works for me. Try this out
If this doesn't work further, you can try out mHotspot for the same purpose.
I've had the same issue, with the wifi saying it's connected even though it isn't.
This thread is 4 years old and this issue still hasn't been fixed. What a shame.
Same issue here on OnePlus 3 even after factory reset.
I have this same problem after the security patch Mid March to Jan 1, 2019. The WIFI doesn't show in the top status bar, but toggling wifi off/on fixes it till the next overnight. I did make one change to my wireless about that same time and that was moving the min connect speed from 6Mbps to 12Mbps to help with bandwidth issues being cause by devices using low speeds and having several SSID broadcast. My S7 and Tab A both work fine - so I think it was something in the security patch.

Wi-Fi always connected

Hi,
Despite selecting NEVER in Wi-Fi settings (to ensure wifi is off when sceen goes off) - it still seems to be connected constantly
Other phones works fine and wifi is off after 5-15 minutes depends of the model
Any thoughts?
Do you have Wi-Fi+ on? It's in the wifi settings, above your networks.
It works similarly to identifying where you are most, and turning wifi on when you are home, in the office, etc. And switching between mobile internet and wifi when it best suits you.
It will automatically turn wifi on even when it is off
nope, i actually have it turned off
Goto settings, battery, settings wheel in upper right. See if wifi is set to always on in sleep. I have found a few settings that repeat themselves.
i have also set to "never" here

Mobile hotspot connect, but no internet connection

Hi, I tried getting help with this on P30 Pro forum here, but no luck. I'm having problems with mobile hotspot on my Huawei P30 Pro. My notebook can see the hotspot, and can connect to it, but the phone just won't share the internet connection.
Bluetooth is turned on, and bluetooth tethering as well, and I tried both 2.4 and 5 GHz.
I tried USB tethering. Tried apps from the store. Tried addin "DUN" to APN type and always the same thing - notebook can see the hotspot, but internet is not working. Any ideas? The notebook is Asus Rog G751. Three months ago internet over hotspot was working, but since I only use hotspot when travelling, I have no idea what could have gone wrong in the mean time.

You have tried USB tethering as well as Bluetooth tethering. Have you tried the 'Portable WLAN hotspot'?
In the Settings of 'Portable WLAN hotspot', there is a 'Data limit' option. Check it and the device list, please.
Switch Airplane Mode On and Off:
This is a method that usually fixes the error and works for most of the Android Users. All the user needs to do is switch the Airplane Mode On and off. The airplane mode basically resets the Signal and Network adapter to help the connection be restarted again.
To switch the Airplane Mode On and off, all you have to do is pull the notification drawer down, and then look for an Airplane icon, tapping on it will activate it. Wait for 5 seconds, then tap on the Airplane icon again to deactivate it and wait on all the Mobile network to appear again and then turn on the data and the Hotspot of the device.
Change from Dynamic IP to Static IP:
Mobile data has a dynamic IP address, which tends to alter every time you turn it on. So sometimes setting up a static IP address will solve the connection problem. The steps are to change from Dynamic to Static IP:
Step One: Navigate to Settings in the connected device, select Wi-Fi connection and long-press the name of the Hotspot, this will bring up a Menu, this setting can also be found under Modify Network of the Wi-Fi.
Step Two: Change the IP setting from Dynamic to Static IP, and then assign an IP starting with 192.168.x.x (Replace with any number from 1 to 255). Do not change anything else from the settings, press apply and this should fix the issue.

Bluetooth connection abort in standby

Hi there,
I'm using my old Nexus 5 for navigation. Each time when the phone is going to standby, the bluetooth connection (tethering by another phone) get lost.
Is there a solution to avoid this?
Bluetooth timeout is one of the most common reasons Bluetooth is turned off without warning. By default, after about 10 minutes of being idle, your device will usually go into "standby" mode to conserve power. This turns the screen off and removes certain connections, like Bluetooth.
Is there anybody possibility to change the timeout? I can't find this option in developers options.
Guaranteed not to be found under Developer Options.
Not all devices will let you control when your Bluetooth turns itself off automatically.
Every smartphone or device is different when it comes to setting Bluetooth connections and connectivity preferences. You can usually find instructions on how to alter your Bluetooth online by searching for your phone model.
