ANother day and yet another problem with my Nexus S.
I was forced to restore factory settings today because my phone stopped syncing since updating to 2.3.3.
Now syncing is working, but for some strange reason it seems that both the 3G and WiFi icons are on in my taskbar..
WTF?? Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks..
Been posted before, nobody knows why.
This happens to me as well, but its not a problem, it uses wifi in preference to 3G. You should see it showing no 3G activity when downloading with wifi on.
I've been looking in different forums and can't find an issue to this problem. I did find one thread that had a similar problem, but I didn't see a solution.
My problem is that sometimes when I turn my wifi on, the status bar will do the usual and show wifi and disconnect data. After a few seconds, the data icon will show back up and the status bar will show both wifi and data. However, I'm not able to connect to any webpage.
This problem just recently started happening, so it's not my router. I'm also running the latest RCMix ROM with Leedroid's latest kernel.
Thanks for any help.
Try using a different ROM, it might be the way your apn settings are set...

I also have this occasionally using the stock rom...but it lasts for only a couple minutes. I believe it is happening when the phone thinks it has lost WiFi or has barely a signal from the router...
I'm having problems with my wifi icon not connecting to the Google servers.
My 3g icon is fine and goes green, but when I connect to my wifi, it stays white and I cannot access any applications tthat require data connections.
Has anyone had similar problems?

This only happens to me when I'm using a hotspot somewhere. I'll have to load a webpage and click to connect. Only time.

I've had that happen to me a few times... just put it in airplane mode for 10 seconds and take it back out. Fixes it for me at least

Sounds like your router is not passing along the internet connection. Try restarting your router.

I get that on my home network once in a while. It'll connect to the internet, but not want to cooperate with Google's servers. Then 3G will work fine. Not really sure what the deal is. Probably some issue with Comcast's local servers, I dunno.
what mode do u use for your wifi? i was having the same problem and it was driving me crazy since i would keep getting errors like "disconnected" and "no active network connections." i switched from WPA2 Personal to WEP and now I'm not having problems anymore.
on a side note, does anyone know if i need to do something special to get WPA2 to work better and not keep disconnecting?

Every wifi network I use is wpa.
In the advanced wifi options, is your wifi sleep policy set to 'never'?

i have it set to never when plugged in. but if the screen is on, shouldn't it not make a difference?

it sounds like you dont have a data connection at the moment. check your internet via a desktop/laptop. also try unplugging your router then plugging it back in.
well my data works on my laptop and ipod touch - never with any problems. so it's strickly an android problem. but now that i've changed to WEP i haven't lost data connection at all today. the bars turned white twice, but i didn't lose connection like i did with WPA. very strange.
As of the last week or so I have noticed that if my phone is connected to wifi I either don't get my emails and text messages or they are seriously delayed. I also have a horrible sending them too.
Is this a problem with my phone or is it a skyrocket issuse?

It sounds like a network issue (the wifi network you are connecting to). Is this problem occurring on any wifi network or only a specific one?
Another possible thing is that your phone with wifi is if you're using things like juice defender etc, they turn off your data when your phone is on sleep and your wifi only check partial times meaning there are delays.
Have you tried turning airplane mode on then off?
