I received software updates today both for my S4 (i9506) and for my Note Pro 12.2 (SM-P905).
Updated my S4 and after two updates in a row she was good to go.
Same prosedure on my 12.2 albeit after finished updating it will not connect to wifi anymore. Stuck in searcing for available wifi networks.
Tried multiple restarts. Have also wiped cache (startup using power+volUp+home)
Anyone else? Any idea how do I rectify?

I have 3 broadcasted SSID's at home - all of then working well and all other devices sees and can connect to all of them. All but my Note Pro.
Suspected the low battery settings, but after charging over night the device still is still stuck in "searching" mode in Wifi settings.
This can happen to any device after an update. (and it happens a lot!)
The update corrupted something. Do a factory reset.

You're absolutely right. Factory reset did the trick.
Never experienced problems from an update. But I suppose there is always a first time

Hi, I'm in Jakarta, Indonesia. Here the Note 10.1 has only 1 version. Which is GT N-8000 and can do both wi-fi and 3G. And NO, I don't have any problem like yours...Enjoying my note day after day...:laugh:
Yes, I have the same problem. Reset did not help. But, self tuning off reduced dramatically after hard reset and cash wipe. I also did not sync my apps and backup with my Google account. I have the impression that syncing with Google was causing the problem. I still some crashes but not as often as before.
Did get a new one? And do you still have the same issue?

So I purchased this N5 through TMobile on Wednesday and finally took it out the box yesterday and set it up. Now, I am on high speed wifi and whenever I try to watch youtube, it either freezes, force closes, or just stays on page showing loading.
With other apps/browser, it does the same thing. Either FC or keeps on loading. Is there a fix or should I get get a newer one from TMobile?
If you just got the device if take it back. It shouldn't be doing what it's doing. They'll probably tell you to do a factory reset which you could do to see if that fixes it.

I've done factory reset, tried custom rom; nothing worked. When I did custom rom, it worked last night, but this morning, the problems persists.
I got 4 N5s and the other 3 is working as it should, but this one is just a headache so far.
is this happening via wifi or via your mobile data connection?

Wifi and mobile data.
Funny thing is, I was over my brother's place last night (his phone is the one that's having issues), he connected his to wifi and I was on HSPA. I was able to connect and play videos on youtube while his hanged. Even when I connected to his wifi, mine would play almost immediately while his would hang/FC.
Both phones are N5, on same network, on same wifi, on same rom using same kernel.
Is anyone having WIFI issues with their Note Pro 12.2. I have regular and frequent wifi drops even though the tablet says it's connected. I've done a factory reset 2 times already, which is so time consuming in order to get your tablet back to where you want it.

Does this happen when you have a Bluetooth pair active? A keyboard, for instance?

I had the same problem. SideSync was the culprit. I stopped using SideSync and the problem went away. I tried using Sidesync again a week later and the problem immediately returned.

I really wished that your suggestion can fix the problem, but no luck. I have never used the sidesync app and I just removed all the updates of sidesync and disabled automatic updates. the problem is still there.

No I don't think so. Its drops whether BTis connected or not connected.
My WiFi drops out randomly (and often) as well. It's gone on since I've owned the tablet, despite factory resets and switching to the debloated ROM. Matters not with BT, I've never used SideSync (it's not even installed). The only time I really notice a problem is when I'm connected to the Samsung/Galaxy store. Every now and then when streaming music or watching videos I don't have enough buffered to last until the connection comes back, but otherwise it's not too noticeable.

I tried at least SIX times factory reset. but It still didn't work. Also I tried static ip method that Samsung recommended which is not working.
Hello everyone.
So, the wifi problem on my N5 goes back some time ago; it happened for the first time about 2 weeks after i got it, middle november i'd say:
i always keep my wifi connected while at home and sometimes it just refuses to send data anymore. The signal bar doesn't drop, but the data just stops working. I don't remember what i did the first time it happened, but it just started working as intented after a few days.(I was on 4.4.4 back then).
Now I'm on 5.0.1 and it had been working right for some time, until 2 days ago i unplugged my router then plugged it back it. Later that day I noticed the issue is back. I have absolutely no idea what to do about it and it is irritating as hell.
Did any of you guys experience this before? If so, how did you fix it?
Also, is it possible that this is a driver issue on the phone side? All my other devices work just fine on wireless.
Thanks!

you may also try forgetting your network and re-logging back in. also check the wifi frequency band and of course rebooting your router can’t hurt.

I tried all that but with no success. I think the router might be the issue since it does have some glitches where it loses connectivity and it fixes after a reboot. I'll try with another router and report after.

I have done a full factory reset on my phone due to this issue, and it still happens. It doesn't just happen at home either, it happens everywhere I go. I am assuming at this point that it is a bug in 5.0/5.0.1 and hopefully it will be fixed in 5.0.2 (if the N5 ever see's this update).
If anyone has had any luck with this bug, please let me know.
I'm having the same issues. I'm now on my 4th router in as many months and I can't figure this out after testing just about every possible configuration of channels, frequencies and settings. We have about 10 devices connected in my home and the Nexus 5 is the only device with this problem. I'm at the point now that I just use LTE at home.
Yeah it's a 5.0.1 issue, if you've found your way to XDA you should try a custom ROM. Most are branched from the aosp 5.0.2 commits.

Did Lollipop rid the wifi options of "wifi optimization" and "avoid poor connections?" I used to keep those options unchecked for a more stable wifi connection.

But I had this same problem on 4.4.4 for a little while, that's why I was inclined to think it was something to do with my router.
Ahhh okay, yeah it very well could be.
I just had to replace my logic board due to faulty wifi, I got the always 'WiFi turning on' bug.

That setting checkbox was missing in advanced wifi settings since 5.0 (and the option was forced to "on")
According to this post this has been fixed in 5.0.2:
Hello,
I'm posting this elsewhere too to cover a greater user base in the hope this is a more widespread issue among us s6 MM users.
This happens with most wifi points and isn't down to signal strength and is random. My phone will freeze briefly which is frustrating enough and normally whilst checking twitter or something then I glance up to see no icon for wifi or data... then 4G appears.. then wifi reconnects. This has certainly come into play since MM.
When I upgraded to 6 I did OTA. Felt it wasn't as fast as it should be and reset. Still not convinced I used Samsung smart switch to wipe clean and flash clean.
Am I alone with this glitch? It happens most days.

Never really had any problems with wifi tbh, I think your possible option is to do a fresh firmware flash through odin.
Have tried a network settings reset so let's see if that helps ?

It's still happening sadly.. starting the process of moving data off the phone in preparation for a factory reset from settings.
Annoying thing is. This was a clean Samsung smart switch wipe, download and flash! If anything the fault should never error have occurred!
I'll try the reset and see.
Oh and it happens on other wifi AP's too, not just my home router.

Ok all things backed up and reset done last night. I did contrmplate reset on the phone itself but opted to use smart switch again.

Ok.. there might..just might be a break through.. since this I've had virgin tv anywhere crash without the app even being open. So it would prompt saying tv app has stopped working report crash or cancel. So I thought this would be a good idea to have an app clear out including this one. Booted into recovery menu and chose to wipe cache (to keep data!) And touch wood the phone has behaved itself since.....

I had a simular issue. I lost The WiFi connection from time to time. It just lost the connection and reconnected again. The problem was eventually caused by a very crowded WiFi situation.
I placed a WiFi repeater inside my roam and this fixxed the problem.
You should check the WiFi Signal strenght with an App.
i have the same issue on everysingle rom i tried except cyanogen and miui so it an issue on sam software (happens also on j7 2016 )
