hello guys,
i may have a problem with my wifi connection.
i bought two days ago the phone and yesterday i was playing with it in my house. i have some kind of problem when i am connected to my rooter.
when i connected my phone, i started viewing some sites and watching youtube videos.
suddenly i had this problem:
at the browser when i clicked a site, it started load it but never ended, just showing a white page. if i pressed stop and reload then the site was loaded ok.
this happened all the time.
when i returned to youtube the videos started and played for 10-20 seconds and then were freezed because the phone could not get the rest video.
at the same time i had internet access from my rooter as i could navigate at sites from my tablet.
if i close and open my wifi on phone then the connection was ok but after a while (10 mins) this strange behavior started again .
has anyone ever had the same problem;
thanks you
(PS sorry for my english)
What ROM are you using, and did you try to reset the phone and wipe cache/dalvik?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
the phone is new (2 days old) and its stock
Have you tried simply power-cycling the router? Should be one of the first things you do, anytime you have a WiFi problem, as this will clear it up many times. I think I've seen this help even in cases where other devices work on the WiFi network properly.
yeap, i restarted both router and the phone
i have changed all the settings on the wifi-settings but did not see any progress.
From htc support told me to worj the phone in safe mode, but i have to wait until i return home
besides this problem, i cant connect and the router at my office (i had the same problem with mt s2 after an update, but 1-2 months later sammy rolloed out an update and the problem fixed)
Is security enabled on your WiFi network, and if so, what type (WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc.). You might try switching the encryption type (although WEP is not recommended, as its not very secure). I've seen cases where this has helped various connection problems.
I have had this problem with a lot of phones that friends and family bring by. 90% of the time the problem is a minor setting on the router. Some Android phones don't like AES encryption. If your encryption settings on your router are set to "AES" or "TKIP and AES" try changing it to just TKIP. You should see improvement with your connection.
You may have to change the security settings on other devices that are connected to that router as well to refelect the change.
hey guys,
yesterday evening, when i returned home i checked my router if it was able to change the frequency from 2.4GHz to 5GHz but i could not as at the channel it did not had choises for 5GHz.
i did not change the encryption type.
i restarted the phone, and entered in safe mode. after 10 mins the problem occurred again, i removed chrome, and suddenly the phone started working fine for until 1 hour and so i figured out that the problem was the app chrome, but i left the phone in safe mode and went to bed.
next morning (today) i started watch sites and after 5 minutes the problem occurred again. (i did not turn off the phone from the previous night, still worked in safe mode)
is there any possibility the problem to caused when the phone is in standby? although i have the wifi activation in option always
So about two weeks ago, while I was traveling (of course, I didn't bring my laptop, because I thought this would be a great time to test the usability of my tablet instead of my laptop while traveling) the wifi became stuck 'turning on'. The WiFi has been stuck 'turning on' for about two weeks now. Bluetooth will not turn on either.
This device was completely stock..all OTA updates, never rooted/unlocked/whatever.
I downgraded from 10.4.4.20 to 9.4.5.30 just about 15 minutes ago since I got around to it. Wifi is still 'turning on'. My goal to do this was to downgrade it to ICS, then flash a custom rom to it to see if that would repair it, or flash the kernel, or something. However, I can't use the ASUS unlock tool unless I have a network connection. WiFi/Bluetooth won't turn on, not an option. Also, I am going to Malaysia next week, and then moving to Korea, so I won't really be able to mail this thing in. Anyways, I was quite dissapointed with my performance on the stock ROM's, so I want to do this anyways.
Is there a way to tether to my laptops (win 7) internet connection using USB tethering? I have not been able to get it to work.
Thanks
Did you try shutting all the way down\restart and trying the factory reset option under settings?
Maybe the "pinhole" reset would fix the problem you are having.
Well , today when i woke up my wifi just didnt wanted to start. Last night worked fine but today nothing. When i try to start it it starts in 4-5 seconds wich is quiet long time, then it shows that is lookin for wifi signal and in a short time went off. I installed CM 10.1 on it, well here doesnt even want to start the wifi, it showa just Turning on wi-fi. Anyone can help me? i cant even do anything on my phone without wifi.
Flash Stock Rom and see if problem persists.
Hi all. I have a weird issue that after Googling it doesn't seem anyone else has had.
The issue started earlier today, in the morning. I was using my phone on the WiFi and it was working phone, then my phone crashed, restarted itself.
I noticed it wasn't connected to the WiFi, went to the WiFi settings and where it usually says the list of networks it said "Turning on WiFi" and the slider at the top was greyed out so I couldn't turn it off.
I tried airplane mode and that didn't help. But the phone was working fine on my mobile data so restarted.
Now the weirder part starts. I basically have an issue where, if I turn on the WiFi, my phone crashes, or doesn't act like it's turning the WiFi on.
Even going Settings and then pressing on the WiFi option freezes the phone.
The problem started when I was still using 4.4.4 however since the problem developed I've used my mobile data to download the updates and now have 5.1.1 I think.
The problem persists even after updating to the most recent version and doing a factory restore. The phone is currently completely stock with nothing downloaded on to it. All I did is go through the first time setup for the device.
The WiFi currently is off, and the phone is working however it won't connect to my data, it has the signal bars and then an ! instead of a 4G icon.
If I try to turn the WiFi on it crashes the phone.
The phone is still under warranty so I plan on contacting LG on Monday however it's currently 3:34 AM on a Sunday so I have a day until I can call them and was hoping for a solution in that time.
Thanks in advance. I have the phone to hand so anything you want me to test I'm able to.
There is some information I didn't type as I don't know what is important was trying to avoid a wall of text so if you have any more questions I'll answer I best I can.
Thanks for reading, I hope you can help!
Hi all, two weeks ago bought a Nexus 5. Came with Android 5.0.1. Well out of the box I have no WiFi access. I saw no WiFi, while my laptop saw it. I was on a business trip in a hotel in Miami. Suddenly walking through the corridors of the hotel, detect a few WiFi AP but I could not connect. Back home, I put 3G data and immediately I get the OTA to Android 5.1.0. From there, the WiFi worked and I could connect to my account and download applications. Moments later, came a new OTA to Android 5.1.1 moment in which everything stopped working.
Using Nexus Root Toolkit I have tried all official image, place the router on 2.4, low channels, clean cache and what all Forum recommends. Finally try to put the phone in the freezer. Leave it for ten minutes. When I power on, I went back to see all networks and connect to my WiFi for 15 minutes approximately. Once the phone returned to temperature environment, the WiFi disappeared and I went back to the same situation. If I put it in the frezer it works, until it takes ambient temperature.
I can turn on or off the WiFi, but I do not see anything, I can see the MAC Address, when turn on the wifi the button turns blue, everything its works fine but without any success. Currently the phone has Android 5.1 image LMY47I and the M8974A-2.0.50.1.16 RADIO (did a downgrade thinking that could improve something). Currently I have OTA to migrate to 5.1.1. I dont know if I will give a try to this upgrade.
I would like to know if there is any way that the phone does not validate the temperature or something similar because when he leaves the refrigerator "cold", everything works for a few minutes until it returns to a temperature environment.
Any thoughts?
Freezer.. Interesting
Yeah can't say I've heard that one before ...
