I did OTA update this afternoon and can not shut off Wifi.
Wifi keeps turning it self on.
I have rebooted my phone 3 times but no help. I shut the Wifi off and after few seconds it turns it self on again.
Help, Anyone else has same issue?
This is the first I am hearing of this problem. Are you rooted? I would wipe the device and reinstall the OS.

Hello,
A friend of mine got a problem with his galaxy tab. The WiFi button doesn't turn on. When you try to turn on the button, it gets greyed out and there is a message saying: "Turning on..." After 5 seconds the button turns OFF again and this goes on and on and on.
The WiFi used to work properly for about 1 year, but now it acts like this.
It is definately not a router issue, because all other defices work fine with wifi on. It also doesn't turn on when I appoach a different router.
Then I rooted the tablet using Odin, but that didn't help.
I read through several forums and people with the same problem did a factory reset, but that didn't help either.
Anyone that could help me please?
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm talking about GT-P5110, using Android 4.2.2 and build number JD39.P5110XXDML1

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!
Randomly my D850 stopped being able to turn on Wifi or Bluetooth. They icons would cycle and the battery would drain very quickly. Neither AT&T nor LG were much help since I am out of warranty. I rooted the device and tries re-installing the stock ROM and several other ROMs only to solve the Wifi issue and have a new issue with the phone shutting down every few minutes.
Now I'm back on the stock ROM. Sometimes the phone will be able to turn on Wifi and will connect to by Wifi. Then, after a short while, it will shut down and will not restart until the batter is pulled. When it does restart the Wifi will cycle to turn on again. Also, when the Wifi will not connect there is no available MAC address.
Any help would be appreciated.

I hv the same problem with my Lg g3 D855. Sometimes when i restart my phone, the wifi is working.. but the phone will shut down itself suddenly..... guys please help
Also I have tried to root and it didnt work, I dun want to factory reset my phoneeee>>>>>>
Same has been happening to me, at first I had a bad battery so I thought that had something to do with it, but now that it has been replaced, it still keeps happening. I was going to take my phone apart, but I see others are having this so it's a software issue? Factory reset didn't work
Most of the time it is the battery somtime a restore tot method fizes it old files build up change kernals and keep same app in my case like triskster when u change kernals these implement the same settings u had on old kern which may not be compatible but sometime a good fresh tot restore helps a lot and give that new phone smell. You can try booting to safe mode to see if its rouge apps or setups but u have to run ssafe mode for a couple hours not just 2 min and say it didnt work. A lot of people do. Now in ure cases it wouldnt take long but in battery drain cases needs to be run for a while

As for first case if ure still not rooted software can still break even on stock unrooted.
Had the same issue. I flashed a ROM out of desperation and it's been fine ever since

It turns off by itself everytime my watch was out of range and can't get it connect because Bluetooth was off by itself. Had to turn it on manually everytime. Anyone have this issue ? Any fix?
Did you update by OTA? Try to do factory reset. Sometimes it fixes the issues.
Let me know if you have any other issues.

I had a 560 BT issue that if I rebooted the phone with bluetooth on, after the reboot, it would be off and I would have to manually
turn it back on. I thought what the heck, and deleted the dalvik cache. Now, upon reboot, if the BT was on, prior to reboot,
it continues to be on after the reboot.
Might be worth a shot for your issue?

I had to start over and everything is working now.
Updated to Oreo today. Everything seemed fine but I've noticed that the wifi is now intermittent to the point of uselessness. The wifi will show connected, but will stop passing data after 10 seconds or so. Sometimes it recovers and sometimes it doesn't. I can disconnect and reconnect to get it started again, but it goes right back into the problem in another 10 seconds.
Things I've tried that did not fix the problem:
1. Rebooting phone
2. Rebooting router
3. Forgetting and reconnecting to wifi
And in combo: Forget wifi, reboot phone, reboot router, reconnect
So it's not a settings or "stale" connection issue. It's definitely something in the update that messed up the wifi driver somehow. It's completely useless now; I have to use mobile data all the time to get anything done.
I usually don't like to update OTA but tend to wait till the full firmware is available and I then flash my phone this way its got no conflicts, the latest firmware I can find for oreo is G950USQS2CRB9 so you might find the download and try flashing it, might help, wouldn't hurt anything to do it to see if that will fix any wifi issues.
It not solve the problem and many people have the issue on different forums
