Hi, I recently got my star s5 and I have 2 problems with it:
1. The 3g internet is disconnecting sometimes and I need to wait until it's back for a few seconds/minutes..
2. The wifi doesn't work at all, I can't connect to any network (open or close), its keep showing me "authentication error".
I tried to flash different ROMs, play with the bands on engineer mode, following guides and nothing seems to work.
There is a chance that my hardware is failing?
Or its a software issue that can be fixed?
Please help me I'm frustrated.
Thank's, Raz.

Hi all,
I have a Galaxy i9000 and it won't connect to wireless. It used to connect just fine, then one day it stopped working. I ignored it for a while (3G still works) and once I finally got around to trying to see what had happened, I could see that the phone does connect to wireless networks (at home and at work), but once it had authenticated to the network, it would fail at "Obtaining IP address from <network name>". There's no error message, but the phone just sits at that stage forever. Not obtaining an IP address makes it pretty hard to connect to a wireless network
I don't know what happened to make this problem occur, it's been about a month now since it happened. I have AdFree installed on the phone, that writes to the hosts file, right? I suspect that it may have been a hosts file update which had caused this problem, but I'm not sure.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may have caused the problem?
Thanks!
what about reflashing your phone?
so you have everything stock
if this doesn't solve the problem then contact a service, or if you have warranty, just send it back...
same problem
The funny thing is is have exactly the SAME PROBLEM ... SINCE the same time?!?!
mybe we got some kind of virus for phones? ... altho i do have anti viral software on the phone. and i didnt upload any kind of stuff on it for at least half a year.

I did some googling and found brief answers not that helpful..but it was mentioned that frequency range I'm trying to connect is incorrect.
"does anyone know how to change wifi frequency mgh our any help"
question
Hello , did anyone solve the problem ? My I9000 wifi problem apeared today. thanks
same "authentication problem"
Well after i flashed custom rom (android 4.0.4 -SmoothieICS-v2) i can´t connect to wifi any more. But mobile data works perfectly.
And before flashing custom rom ,wifi worked jsut fine. phone is Galaxy S Plus I9001 .
I'm hoping someone knows how to resolve this: A few weeks ago I started having an issue with my GS3. I have my WiFi on and connected to my home network or work network. If I send or receive a picture message (MMS) or anything that requires Verizon's network, my phone connects to the 4G LTE (as it should), but then stays stuck with it displaying both the wifi and 4G LTE... This makes it so that my cell does not automatically download updates for apps etc which I have set to only download on wifi. This randomly started about 2 weeks ago. My GS3 was not rooted or anything... Verizon couldn't figure out how to fix it. I then tried rooting and loading a custom Rom (currently on CleanRom), and it is still doing this. What I've noticed on other people's GS3 or Galaxy Note 2, is that the phone will connect to 4G LTE to send/receive MMS but then the 4G icon disappears and the phones just show wifi. I tried searching on XDA and other sites but can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated! Thanks.
I'd still appreciate it if anyone could help with this? Just wondering if that's an Android 4.1.2 thing or if it's just my phone? I have had this issue with the stock unrooted rom, with CleanRom, and with Hyperdrive Rom.... To sum up my post above, both the wifi and 4G icons show instead of just wifi showing like it used to do... Which in turn, does not let my apps auto update via wifi unless I manually update them or restart my phone. Attached is a screen shot.
Hey guys!
I own a Samsung Galaxy S Duos.
The issue is quite clear from the Title itself.
The connection to the wifi cuts off randomly without any warning and I have to restart the whole modem.
I have been facing this issue for quite sometime and here are the apparent soluiions I tried:
- Turning off the cell and restarting it.
-Turning off the wifi (on the cell) and turning it back on.
-Forgeting the network and connecting it back again.
-Resetting the cell.
- Re-flashing the stock firmware. (It was a clean re-install)
I have done all these and still the issue persists .
I am quite sure that its not the modem's problem because I have got a number of other devices connected simultaneously to the same modem and all of the devices are connected to it flawlessly.
I have been googling for this issue throughout and couldnt find any solutiom for this.... so someone please help me....
P.S My cell works fine with other wifi networks........ So far I havent had any issues with other wifi networks maybe because I havent connected to it long enough
Hi XDA Assist
Need help with finding a thread for "can't connect to this network right now try again later" issue that i'm facing on my OPO, it's been rooted few months back and the issue started about a week ago, the device losing it's network signal without any reason (the wifi still working when the 3G/LTE is getting disconnected) and only after few times that i try to manually registering to a network - it succeeds.
Checked with my operator, there's nothing wrong with their definitions.
My SIM works great on my wife's OPO, no issues are shown.
APN is set and after registration i'm able to make calls.
**********
Other issue is that i'm trying to update my Cyanogen OS to 12.1-YOG4PAS2QL, but when i get to the recovery - i'm not able to find the folder that it was downloaded to in order to install it.
I am trying to connect my phone to wifi and its stuck at turning on. My Bluetooth and GPS are working fine. I am also able to see MAC address for my wifi and Bluetooth. But my wifi is not working. I have tired Flashing stock ROM, custom ROM, Performing hard reset etc. None of them worked. I am wondering there might be some data corruption or some file missing that is causing this problem. Similar to this "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHGQn0Av2hI" where his moto g is having the same problem.
My S6 is currently running Android 7.0 Stock ROM
See the Attached screenshots
Please Help..... Its WIFI
Hello - currently having this issue on my S6 right now.
Updated from 6.0.1 to Stock 7 using Odin and Samfirm
Then a combination of custom roms and stock flash, also didn't work.
Upon trying to access FSM (service mode) I don't see any of the wifi power save options that most people report that fix it.
Any idea? There are a few of us in the internet with this but never a solution
There's a good chance that this information is useless, but I got this on another Samsung device, after writing 0 to /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/state.
WiFi stuck on turning on;
WiFi and BT MAC addresses are OK;
GPS and BT are OK (tested);
WiFi Direct is clickable after using the back button but does nothing;
After a few attempts it gives up.
After writing 1 the WiFi started working again(tested). But it didn't stop working by itself, it stopped working because I wrote 0.
Logcat's attached.
