Hey guys, got the phone and its super good, but I can connect to my works WiFi. Was able to get on with my nexus 4 and 7
Is there any way to figure this out, tried grabbing a logcat but my phone doesn't even try to connect as soon as you try to connect it just says "saved" and as I see in the logcat nothing happens
I would think you're hitting this bug: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-333

hello guys,
I got a lg optimus 3d for a week now and i love it ! i only have 1 problem... and thats wifi. my mobile will not connect to my wireless connection at home.
Before this phone i had a nokia n900 and i never had any problems with connecting to wifi. i searched on the internet for possible answers but i havent found any.
This is what i do :
step 1 : i turn wifi on
step 2 : i'll search for my internet connection and enter the WEP code
step 3 : this is where the problems start, my mobile keeps saying :
connecting.... disconnected.... scanning.... connecting.... disconnected... scanning and this goes on and on and on till i turn off wifi
Last friday i turned off my router and modem and after i turned it on again my wifi worked but not for long because since this morning its doing the same thing connecting.... disconnected.... scanning etc.
What am i doing wrong ? i even tried my new sim card in my old nokia n900 and no problems at all....
I really dont know what to do and i hope you guys can help me.
mobile internet is working fine btw but i really want wifi at home because its faster

You can try 2 things to see whats the problem:
Find another router and try with that one.
Try to connect to another network and see if it works.
If none of the above works, then we are talking of a defective phone most probably.
EDIT: Something that you can try right away is to switch the authentication on the router to something else for example WPA2 and see if that helps.
EDIT2: Also be sure that the DHCP on the router is active. Kinda lame I know but it can cause such problems.

Try to switch the authentication first if you havent done it already. Just to try to do something while waiting 2 days
Go to your neighbour and try to connect on his wifi ,if it works then you have to reconfigure your network,if not then it's probably phone defect ..

Hi folks, looking for some help.
I am able to connect my tab 2 to my home wifi no problem.
I have also connected it to my Galaxy s2 phone using wifi tethering.
What i have found though is that on several occasions when i am in work and try to tether to my phone, that settings will show that i am connected to my WI FI hotspot but i cannot connect to any internet pages. I recall many moons ago that when i sometimes changed modem connections on my home pc that i had to reboot everything to have the old settings forgotten and the new ones set. Does anyone know if there is something similar when you move from home WIFI as your last connection to WI FI Tethered hotspot as your new one. Is there something i need to do to have the tab or phone release the old settings and take on the new ones. Hope that is a clear enough explanation of my problem. Thanks for any help offered
Is this a one time thing or does it happen often? Are you rooted? rom?
Both phone and tablet are stock, no rooting done to either. It happens regularly, today again in work it happened. Had to forget the connection and reconnect several times until eventually I was able to connect to internet. Really annoying as it shows as wifi connection is strong at all times.
ps some additional info.
I had used the tab tethered to my phone in work to show case how good the tab was. I can get intrrnet connection no problem on my phone, the tablet shows it is tethered to WIFI hotspot, just when i click on an internet link, no page appears. It annoys the bejeezus out of me cos i know it should be simple. I even tried bluetooth tethering and it wouldnt work either, when it did previously. What i am thinking is that i had juice defender on both my phone and tab and recently uninstalled it as i had read there was no real benefit in using this with ICS. I am wondering if it has possibly screwed up some setting or other in the phone or the tab, i.e. maybe set something and then when i have removed the program, it has not reset something, yes that sounds pretty vague i know. Anyway, thanks again and thanks for any further suggestions. p.s. i may try reinstalling juice defender on both devices to see if it makes a difference.

I don't know if his will work, but, instead of tapping on the connection and hitting connect button, try pressing and holding down on the connection until a menu shows up. Try connecting from that screen.

You said both are stock and unrooted?
I would try rooting your phone and freezing tethering manager. If i recall right if tethering is not allocated on account, i beleive that the carrier can disable tethering through that app,i could be wrong but it may be worth a shot.
Or your could try a tethering app from the market, like PDA net or the tethering app from CWM also there is a tethering app on google code website.
let me know if that helps
Try Bluetooth tethering instead.
Edit: re read your post.
Try forgetting, the re-pairing the devices. It took several tries for me, or try fox-fi for your phone, and PDAnet for the tablet.

I had also removed avast virus protection as well as Juice defender from the tab. It seemed to be shortly after this that the problem arose, it may be a coincidence but i thought it may be some setting or other that had been changed. I hard reset both my phone and the tab but the problem continued.
In the house i could connect to my home WIFI everytime without issue, then if i tried to tether to my phone it would not connect. I would jump between one connection then the other and eventually it would connect to the phone.
Anyway, thats the history, now to what is happening now. The other day i read somewhere about putting tab in flight mode before tethering, so i tried this and it has worked first time every time since, so i am hopeful this is a permanent solution. What does surprise me is that the tab is not a 3g tab so i would not have thought putting it in airplane mode would make any difference but, hey it has so if anyone has similar issues it may be worth giving it a try. Good luck.
I hope someone on here can help me as I'm trying to fix my dad's Tab and he is on holiday at the moment!
The Tab no longer connects to WiFi. He is travelling around and it will say it has connected to a hotspot but nothing is happening when trying to use the network.
As an example my mum is using an iPad at the same place which when it conencts to the network immediately asks for the user/password. The tab connects but doesn't request anything further. I have tried getting him to remove the conenction and rescan but no luck.
I need to try and get it fixed as I told him Android was better tha Apple. Help!!!
I have setup PPTP vpn using my vps. Vpn works good in pc as well as on my device. Problem is when I try to disconnect it won't let me, or it disconnect but the status on my notification area still shows connected. So when I want to connect again the next time to vpn it won't let me coz notification shows connected. No way to connect again but to restart phone. Also, everytime I disconnect my Internet seems broken, can't browse etc. I am on 4.4.4 stock, with Xposed.
Anyone experience this and has a fix?

Did you by any chance flash the delvik hack? I only say this because I had the same problem after flashing it and after switching back it was fine.

Hello everyone,
I recently encountered an issue with my Nexus 5 that has been driving me crazy for the past couple days.
So basically I was streaming a video on you tube the other night, until my Nexus 5 froze up. My phone was taking way too long to respond, so I decided to hold the power button until the device shut off, and I held the power button again to turn it back on. (duh) As soon as it turned back on, I was no longer able to connect to my home WIFI. So now whenever I try to connect to our home WiFi, I get an "authentication error" and the WiFi network status just comes up as 'saved" instead of "connected". My mobile Data works fine, it's just my WiFi that isn't working anymore. Did I accidentally fry a component within my Device that allowed me to connect to a WiFi network? If there is a fix to this, please let me know ASAP! :crying:
'forget' your wifi network and put in the password again; should fix it.
Do other devices still connect to the same WiFi network?
Rebooted the router?
As above, also forget the network and re-enter the password.
For completeness, test the Nexus on different WiFi networks as well.
Very last resort should be factory reset if you can't get it to connect. If it doesn't connect on fully stock unmodified software, then you have a hardware problem.
