Hi,
Since last couple of days i m facing this issue.
When I try to turn on the wifi either from setting or from notification slider, the device does nothing and wifi status shows turning on.... but it never turns on..., tried booting the device several times... activated and deactivated flight mode.... but no luck... The device is just 3 months old and I dont want to root it to preserve warranty..... going to service center is the last optiin for me as they are going to take much time... anyone faced similar issue ? Is there any work around apart from rooting the device ? Seeking some help .... really frustrated...
Model Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GTP3100 (WIFI +3G)
Thanks in advance,
PRASHANT GAJJAR
You should try reseting your device...
Go to:
Settings > Backup and Reset > Factory Reset > Reset Device...
It should work, if it slove your problem please press "thanks" button

Thanks for your suggestion... I did that after posting question here ! but it didn't worked as well !
If you're sure that it's not a problem with your network but your tablet and a factory reset didn't fix it, it should go to the service centre.
Can it connect to other wifi networks? What do you mean by never turns on - does it say its on but not do anything?

Hi There,
The device will connect to some network only when it's wifi is turned on ! The WiFi status shows "Turning on the WiFi" but it never turns on and shows me available networks to connect...
Anyways looks like visiting service center is the only option for me ! Thanks for your time mate !
Regards,
Prashant
Same problem here, BUT!!!

Hey,
I have the same problem after updating my (tab 2 Wifi-3G 10.1) to Android 4.2.1. the tablet was working so well after updating, but after that I wake up and I had that anoyning problem. the problem is when I click on the setting and try to turn on the wifi it shows only (turning wifi on...) and nothing happening. it feels like the wifi cant start or establish the connenction, therefore no available wifi routers or Hotspots can be listed.
What happened the last two days, I tried to check if the tablet will work again after 2 weeks no charge and drain all the battery, SO IT REALLY WORKED BUT ONLY FOR 5 MIN and the problem came back again.
I downgrade to Android 4.0.4, tried fix apps like "FIX MY WIFI", also download the patch file " wpa_supplicant" and all these steps did not really helped or fixed this issue.
Internet and google didnt really gave me the good answer and also there are many tablets with this problem.
NOW, If anyone KNOW anything about that problem PLEASE TRY TO POST YOUR SOLUTIONS.....
Thanx alot

Hello guys, my brothers tablet seems to have a problem. It cannot connect to the wifi literally. He factory reset the whole thing , and its stocked. But it just randomly happen yesterday when he was playing castle crasher, my tablet seems to be working fine on the router. But the problem is that when i press the button to turn on the wifi, it won't even turn on. It will still disconnect the button. So he cannot even access any wifi or anything. I tried looking around google to find the answer but it seems to be not a problem. My brother hasn't drop his tablet or anything. Its model number is the GT-p3113 if you can help me that would be so grateful thanks.

1. the router is fine, i have multiple tablets running on the wifi just fine. My brother didn't change any setting the tablet is just on stock the whole time LOL ( i know its gross but hey he likes it like that)
2, Yes going into settings and the pull down tab, none of them work when i press it on both the tab down and setting menu, it turns back off.
3. Its not rooted or anything. So i cannot really wipe the cache partition or download one via "wifi"

wiping cache doesnot need rooting you can do that even when your phone is not rooted
Hello everybody,
I´ve got a big problem, wifi just doesn´t work on any wifi network, mobile data and others works great but wifi is not. I don´t know why, I´m running on official 4.3 update. Factory reset didn´t help me. Do you have any experiences with this kind of issue ?
Thanks !

How long have you had the phone?
Has wifi ever worked, i.e. before 4.3 update?
Can you screenshot the advanced wifi settings screen and post.....

Does your router have WPS option? If so, try that. Also, change Wi-Fi frequency band from Auto and try the 2 options. Make sure "Scanning always available" is unchecked, "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" is set to Always.
What is the status of your home network on your phone? Do you actually see the network listed?

What's the ROM Version/Software Number? Are you WWE (401)?
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

hello everybody.
i recently got a problem , as we know, in the dev option , there is a setting that enables mobile data on even while Wi-Fi is connected.
i set it on , and then once i connect to wifi the data off immediately.
first of all i thought might be some of my apps interfering the system so i just did factory reset , 0 app installed , i didn't even update the pre-installed apps.
but still same thing , i tried reboot like dozens times, enable disable wifi , enable disable data connection ...etc.
nothing works out...
any idea please ?

So basically you want both on at the same time? Or to change automatically from WiFi to LTE when not in WiFi range?

i wanna them on at same time , just like the screenshots of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/wifi-data-time-t3349520
i have been googling around , funny thing is i saw few users got them on at same and try to get rid of it and i am desperately try to get them on ...
Can confirm it worked using developers options setting, 4G & WiFi enabled simultaneously yesterday when I read this thread
Just tried it again now and it won't enable 4G unless I disable WiFi
Looks like a bug with the OS, not just you
Report to Samsung and hope for a fix
Just download Google duo app and run.

Hey, guys I just got my Pixel 2.
I connected it wifi but it keeps losing it. Only if I reset my router it will keep the connection for a while, but somehow when
I get to work or in the morning the same issue appears again. It connects but when I go to an app which requires wifi it drops.
I tried to change the channel but didn't work as well.
Restarting the phone won't help either. I also don't want to factory reset it since I want to keep all my data etc. I don't want to go all that bs.
Maybe I should have stuck with a new iPhone after all. Sorry for that comment, but I'm really frustrated
I don't want to give it back or some ****, I just want to fix it easily so I can move on. I hope I get some advice here.

this can help:
phone ::: Go to setting > wifi > advance > If there is Freq option then change it to 2.4Ghz
router (in case no option on phone) ::: go to Wifi setting of your router and disable 5Ghz. I can help more If I know model of your wifi router
:good:
I'm having the same exact problem as OP. I thought for a second I wrote the post. Would love to see if there's a solution. I don't see the option to change frequency in wifi settings. And this issue for me occurs on different WiFi networks.. so it's not just one router. Ugh!
Exactly the same issue here, which is what has lead me to this thread. It often happens that my phone switches to mobile data suddenly while working absolutely fine on Wi-Fi. I have tried almost every basic solution but condition remains the same. Also during that time it stop showing me my (saved) Wi-Fi in the Wi-Fi network available, while at the same time my same Wi-Fi is connected to all the other devices in my house. This needs a fix.
still no fix
