does it happen only when your screen is off?

I know HTC have smartsync which turns wifi and data off if it is not used
this plays havoc with me at night between 12.00am and 07.00am.
Have a look at this

Doesn't that completely prevent your phone from going into deep sleep? Aka drain the battery ridiculously quickly.
I don't understand why HTC can't just get this right. I've never had any other phone that had trouble receiving notifications on Wi-Fi.

Same here. I tried every setting. Just have to restart my router every time before connecting. Annoying but working. And after the update the wifi signal is the worst. Much worst than before.
After updating to 4.04 I have the problem that connecting to my Wifi router is no problem, I get full signal (!), but actually using the network is nearly impossible! After using several apps and/or putting the phone in and out of flight mode, i sometimes regain a real connection, but in the morning or after returning home it's gone again...
The disconnecting in sleep mode and not always receiving messages I can live with, not being able to use Wifi at home and thus being forced to use 3G I can't. Anyone have similar problems and also know a solution? I'll try rebooting the router next time, could be a temporary workaround.
I have the same problem after the 4.0.4 update. Wifi signal is incredibly bad now when I previously did not have any issues.
Tried Best Wi-fi performance and its still not as good as the default settings on 4.0.3.
Anyone has any luck factory resetting their phone to restore Wi-fi functionality?

I have the same or similar issue.
My wifi disconnects every minute, even when the screen is on and when I'm using it. I got a replacement phone from T-Mobile and and replacement antenna cover from HTC but still have the same problem. My previous Nexus S and HD2 had no problems with this the wifi and the wifi disconnects on all networks I've tried so far so it doesn't seem like an issue with my router.
I tried a network monitoring app and the wifi disconnected over 350 times in 6 hours.
I am going to try this: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-work-around-wifi-disconnection-issues-htc-one-x-and-one-s

I have a stock Skyrocket (4.0.3-IML74K.CLE5) I am using as a media player. I keep it in airplane mode all the time with the Wifi on connected to my router. Yesterday the Play store started telling me there was no connection even though I was connected to my router. I went to the web and found I could connect to pages, but constantly get security warnings. If I click continue I can go on to see the page. Netflix tells me there is a problem connecting to Netflix. Voice search works fine. Google Voice tells me there was a network error. Facebook says it can't find a secure connection. Gmail says no connection. Zedge works fine.
I have tried four different wifi Hotspots both secured and insecure. I have tried telling it to forget the connections and reconnecting. I have restarted many times, removed the battery, and tried all the frequency bands.
The wifi icon in the notification bar shows a strong connection. And the little arrows light up orange and green to show activity.
I am guessing there is something wonky going on with establishing a secure internet connection, bit I have no idea how to fix it. Any advice is appreciated.
Q&A please

Sorry about posting in the wrong spot.
I have been using it like this for three weeks. The problem started two days ago.
Update: it works again. I don't know what I did to fix it, though. I went through every setting, and did turn off screen lock and unknown sources, bit I doubt that did it.
i figured it out, i had the same problem, the date and time were askew. updated them and it worked just fine ^__^
Hi,
I have problem with my data connectivity on my Sensation for a long time. If I turn on my phone and mobile data (mostly I choose "UMTS only" mode), I have internet connection without any problems, but after some time (usually few days, but if I'm driving and using phone as my navigation it can be hours) phone can't connect to internet, but 3G icon is still there. If I reboot the phone everything comes back to normal. Turning off and on radio/mobile data and switching between 2G and 3G doesn't work, only reboot works.

You're using stock ROM? Try to flash radio module. Maybe it'll help you to solve this problem...

Nope, ARHD 7.2, stock kernel, 11.76A... radio
Hi all,
I don't have the same problem as you but I couldn't find another thread with a similar theme.
When I turn on my mobile internet (O2 UK) it takes a few minutes to turn on, then stays on for about 1 second then off again for about 30 seconds This just keeps repeating and never stays constantly on.
I have no idea what happened or what I've changed.
This has been happening for a couple of months now. It used to work fine all the time everywhere.
I've tried changing the radio and RIL files (they are currently matching according to GetRIL app).
I'm using Viper 1.6.3 with Firmware 3.33, RIL 4.0.0037HMQ(2), Radio 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A3504.31_M
I've tried different kernels too. Currently using Pacha kernel (not PYD-X)
I have included a logcat if anyone can help me.
Many Thanks In advance.

Hello OP,
Don't worry, you're not going crazy. I have (had) the same problem with ARHD 6.7 and 6.8
When I first started using ARHD 6.6x - I NEVER had this issue, only when I moved to ARHD 6.7 I noticed the same strange issue you have. I couldn't find anything in the forums at the time with similar reports. The only thing that would fix the "no throughput" issue on UMTS was to powercycle or a full reboot or a "hot reboot" when using the advanced power menu - the hot reboot would just reboot the shell - but that was enough to fix the "problem". I even manually upgraded faux123 kernels to the rule out a kernel issue triggering the problem.
I then upgraded to 6.8 when it came out in the hope that would fix but not luck.
So far I am running ARHD 7.2 and not yet (touch wood) seen the issue. However I have taken the chance to do a very clean install and use Titanium Backup to only restore what I really needed, like call logs, SMS/MMS and for most of everything re-entered settings manually.
We shall see how it goes....

That won't help. I also had tried rolling back to different RADIOs and none helped. So it's not a RADIO img issue or a kernel issue. It's something else.
Hey guys. This is my first thread here. So, I hope you can help me.
When I upgraded my GT+ to ICS then now to JB, I already had problems with the WiFi. I thought I would find the problem in the forums, but mine I think is different. There are two arrows in the WiFi indicator, the orange and the green ones. When these two arrows are both lighted up, it means that it is transferring data to the Tab or whatsoever so that I could connect to the Internet. Well, this is based on my understanding, hope you could still help me about this.
So, the problem is, whenever I open the internet and enter an URL, the green arrow stops blinking leaving the orange ones lighted up until both of them are already not blinking and then the browser says, "Webpage not available" (like the attachment below). It happens all the time and whenever I update my Apps in the Google Play, after, example: 23% of downloading the app, it stops and the same scenario happens again. What I do is, I will turn off the WiFi toggle and turn it on again and after, maybe 30 minutes, it happens again.
What do you think guys is the problem? Is it the router or modem's problem too? Or it is a software issue? Thank You guys! ))

Yes. I have tried it on my sister's S3 Mini. I never experienced that scenario when my GT+ was still Honeycomb. It just happened when I updated it to ICS.
These are also some happenings:
- When I will refresh the Accuweather widget, it will happen again. Both of the arrows will stop blinking.
- When I am updating 15 Apps (for example), again, Both of the arrows will stop blinking then it will stop downloading.
- When I am using Google Now then I said something, it will just show "Recognizing" then it sill show "No connection."
- When I am surfing the web and then I searched something, again the arrows will stop blinking, then the browser says, "Webpage is not available"
- When I am uploading photos to Facebook, same scenario again and then it will show, "No connection"
The WiFi is not disconnecting actually. It stays connected but it stops giving data. I'm suffering from this problem since ICS. I don't know what's really the source of this problem. That's why I'm seeking for help here in XDA. Thank youuuu.

Make sure you have the correct wifi frequency band set on your tab for your region/or router. I'm not sure if the stock Samsung roms let you configure it. In aosp builds it's in wifi and advanced menu.

In the Advanced menu, it only shows the IP and MAC Address. How can I know the correct frequency band? I posted an attachment for the picture of the Advanced Settings. )
It seems the problem come from your modem.
I had similar problem like this. My wifi router connect to modem and sometimes this modem does not allocate IP for router.
This problem is most likely related to IP configuration issues. Let try to use some apps to list down all configurations and check
I only experience this every after flashing roms coz my apn settings always gets edited, what I did before if i dont want problems with wifi every after flashing roms using odin was I copied my apn settinngs and edit the wrong apn settings after flashing, or I remove sim card before flashing but I made a copy of apn just to be sure

APN has nothing to do with wifi. APN applies to your cell data connection. 3g, LTE, etc. not to wifi.

UPDATE: Here's a screen recording showing the issue.
NOTICE! You might see battery-saving apps running in the video, but I have factory-reset and un-rooted twice and run FULL STOCK no apps like that installed, and I still get this problem<<<
Youtube: http://youtu.be/MGPxlV2Q-0I
I've got a N5 from the play store right when it came out. I've noticed that randomly during the day if I'm using the internet via browser, apps, hangouts, etc the page / app will suddenly lose connectivity. Not just the app though, nothing on my phone can access internet. The status bar with show full bars, and 3G or H connectivity and activity, and when I pull down the quick settings the connection is white, not red. So I toggle airplane mode, but when I do so there is a long delay where nothing happens. Maybe 20 or 30 seconds before airplane mode finally kicks in. Then after disabling airplane mode, I can use the internet again for a while before I have to repeat. Sometimes I cannot get internet back whatever I do though, including reboots, airplane mode toggles, other toggles, searching for networks, network mode... etc.
Often toggling airplane mode will also allow apps to refresh for a second or two (I get a handful of instagram, whatsapp, Hangouts messages, etc) then all connectivity halts again, even though it's showing it's still connected.
Any thoughts what might cause this? I've flashed older radios, wiped and flashed several Roms including full stock not rooted, and I keep having this issue.
There's a chance it could be my carrier, but my wife's phone on the same carrier (but a store-bought N5) never has this issue...
Thanks for your input! Getting REALLY frustrated at this...
rooted? are you undervolting?

What carrier? And have you been tethering? I'm seeing similar problems on T-Mobile USA with full-blast LTE while tethering.

I have noticed that often - but not always - this is the case.
Do you have this issue often?
Does airplane mode take forever to turn off the cellular radio when this happens?
Thanks!
I have the issue maybe once a day. I have never tried airplane mode, but turning off cellular data from that stage takes a looooong time (atleast 20 sec).

I've been having the same problem for some time now. Exact same description as OP. I'm on T-mobile using Cataclysm Rom, but I've gone through Cyanogenmod, AOKP, Stock and PA and still get the same thing. Was looking for Radios to see if that fixes the issue.
In addition to OP, I've noticed too that often I can't connect to any network, or mobile internet will never go from connected (red) to fully connected (white).
Also sometimes the signal shows red (not fully connected) but my internet is working fine....
And other times it can't find my network, and scanning shows no networks, then later, same location, 10 different networks show. Open sky, not inside.
I'm hoping thisnisnpart of the 4.4.2 bug dealing with dropping internet connection, but not sure...
I've tried radios, might try again. My next attempt will be a new Sim card / talk to carrier again about a misconfig. Then if no luck, I'll see about a replacement phone...
