[Q] WiFi problems help - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just recently brought myself a moto g LTE coming from a nexus 4 device.
I would like some help or advice anything to sort this little problem out I have.
I unlocked the bootloader flashed a few custom ROMs but what I noticed is the device is connected to the WiFi but no data is being transfered. I try using chrome or play store but I get nothing loaded. I have to reboot the phone a few times then it works and then it stops working again after a while.
I don't seem to have problem with any of my other devices I've even changed the channel on the router but I get nothing.
Using data on the phone is fine, but nothing for WiFi.
I hope somebody out there can help with this.
Thank you

If this happens in all the roms you flashed, try 1.) another router (to check if that is the problem) or 2.) flash a different radio.
If this happens on just this rom, 1.) make sure the rom is suitable for your model or 2.) ask in the designated rom thread and ALWAYS mention your model, rom and rom release version. Search XDA on how to logcat and make a proper bug report.
Good luck

Wi-Fi PROBLEM AFTER UPDATE TO 4.0.3

Hello to all!
Just want to create this thread hoping to help others
I am not a developer, but got my own unlock shop
My clients do bring many Sensation phones which have problem with Wi-Fi after update to 4.0.3
I did try all methods just to fix it:
1.JTAG soldering, repair boot, flash radio zone, changes hboot version. after flash with older software
2. Root the phone, install supersu, install Wi-Fi fix .apk
did solve many phones, but yesterday another client brought another phone with the same Wi-Fi problem.
I said to myself: easy tiger! perhaps there is another shortest way!
All I have done is: go into Bootloader Mode > Factory Reset & VIOLA!
After reset Wi-Fi works like a charm.
All I ask is, please. Who have sauch a problem, just do this step & confirm in this thread.
Kind Regards
Factory reset via bootloader mode works like a charm. Been having the same problem and doing factory reset under setting, but doesn't work. Thanks for the info man.

hello,
can you please tell me what did you just did in details cause i tried every thing i ddi't slove the wifi issu and what hboot you use ? firmeware, kernel, rom ... can you tell all that
Thank you
This is the most common problem encounter during the OTA updates. I would suggest install the right RUU if you want stock ROM its better than the OTA updates.
I had issues with the OTA as well, my phone would say no Sim card but when i placed it in another phone it worked just fine. T mobile support told me that the update did something that wouldn't allow non 4g sims to communicate with the device, I originally had the MyTouch4g. So i went over to a T mobile Store to switch my sim with a 4g sim out but the problem still remained the same. Called support again and they warrantied out my phone and sent me a replacement within 2 days. Just sharing my experience with OTA issue.

well, a few years ago was a problem to make wifi to work on linux machines
even now can be a problem to compile wifi drivers in android kernel usually it's done by compiling with different make string in a 2nd step
also this can be about hardware but you can not change it now
I suggest to flash a different stock/custom rom and use open/unsecured network as much as it's possible
Do you have any more information that can help us? For example, has this been an issue since you got the phone or a more recent one? Are you running stock firmware, custom rom, etc? It could be the radio on the phone itself, it could be a bad kernel, it could be a lot of stuff. If it's been an issue you've had continuously you may want to ask to see another one at your carrier's store, to see if it's the radio itself. You could also try custom roms/kernels to improve the radio but that's also fairly involved depending on the situation.

Nexus S with broken (?) 3G/GSM

Hi,
I'm having trouble with my Nexus S, and it might have started after installing Jelly Bean (though probably not). The phone is somtimes unable to connect to 3G, and sometimes unable to call/receive calls. More often not working than working, both of them. I tried factory resetting and I also tried my SIM card in another phone (and another SIM card in my phone), with the same result. Something must be wrong with my phone, the only question is if it is a software error or hardware error.
Anyone have any tips? Perhaps how to check if the radio hardware is working (some app perhaps?)? Any ideas on what else I might try? The phone has been working perfectly for more than a year, so it's really odd it suddenly has problems. Anyone had similar problems?
Thanks in advance!
1. Are your NS is rooted...??
2. did you try another JB Custom Rom..???
or
3. is it still working good when you downgrade to ICS or other ICS Custom ROM...???
Then, if thats way still have same result, its might be hardware problem.

I rooted it yesterday to be able to try custom roms (tried Cyanogenmod 9). Same problem. I then returned it to stock, which made it reflash everything, and still the same problem. I'm starting to believe it's a hardware error. Are there any diagnostic tools available to check the radio module?
Thanks for answering!

Well, just try a radio that's for your model, search for nexus s radios in xda you should be able to find a thread which has all The radios, and choose appropriately.

Maybe you have to get the correct access point name from your provider. If I do a clean flash I have to input it by hand as otherwise I cannot connect as well.

True, I read the post to quickly!

Thanks everyone for all tips, help and suggestions! I ended up replacing my Nexus S (a... questionable reseller bought it for $120, maybe to use for spare parts for other phones becuase I told him about the problems I was having) with a used Galaxy Nexus. Must have been a hardware error.
Sorry for the late reply/checkback!

[Q] Strange problem with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Wireless tethering

Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

15.3.A.1.14 or higher. Always flash the latest firmware if possible.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.

My One won't reconnect to network after it looses signal

Hi there,
Everything was working just fine, but since I switched to a new carrier I can't get the network back as soon as my OP looses it (subway for example). I have 4G as my favorite internet mode and my APNs are good.
Only a full reboot fixes it, not even a soft one. What can I do?
I use the lastest CM 12.1 S rom (YOG4PAS3JL)
Maybe I should try to flash Oxygen's modem? http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...dio-updated-modem-radio-files-oxygen-t3072516
It seems many users are affected by the problem but I didn't find a real solution, hence my post.
Thank you!
After a long investigation, it seems that the OPO is having trouble switching for and from 4G. I solved it using 3G as my preferred network, but I'd have loved using 4G
reinstall the system... u can google fastboot images for opo... flash them through CMD
I've tried 3 ROMS and at least 4 modems so I think I've tried eveything that's available atm
I have had the same problem for some time now. But no reliable solutions found. Have tried various versions of ROM and Radio. Currently using 44S and CM 12.1 S (YOG4PAS3JL).

Didn't fix the problem. Finally reverted back to Oxygen OS. Complete reinstall, including bootloader, storage, everything. Got it done at OPO service centre. Much better reception now.
