Hi,
Since a few days, I'm having a strange wifi issue on my Xperia SP (Android 4.3 from Sony).
When I switch on my mobile phone screen, the wifi start, I can see the icon. When I unlock my phone, a few seconds after, the wifi goes off.
I have to manually switch off and on wifi if I want to use it.
I have posted a video explaining what I see, but I'm new to xda, so I can't post the link.

I have done a soft reset, remove many unused apps, and delete some app stored data.
How can I find which application is accessing wifi in order to solve this issue?
Maybe someone had any idea to help me.
Thanks guys.
Edit: Things went back to normal, I haven't done anything more to solve this issue. Probably some magics... Please close this question. Thanks
Thread closed.

Hi everyone, I made this post because I hope someone can help me out.
I rooted my Nexus 5 to give "Fake GPS" admin rights because I needed to do something with it.
Once im done, I uninstalled fakegps, but my GPS is still not working. It constantly try to find out my position, without managing it, even with enabled wi-fi. I would like to avoid flashing a ROM again. Thanks to everyone who reply this!

Similar issue with WiFi can be fixed with the following:
1. Delete /data/misc/wifi and /data/misc/dhcp
2. Reboot
Give it a try.
Still not working, it endlessly looks for my position without getting it :/
Hi guys,
I need help. Once I encrypted my phone. Location service/GPS is not working on my phone.
Before encryption. There is the location icon always comes up when I access something like Google Maps. even tried installing GPS toolbox. Able to see the satellites and all.
But after encryption, the location icon does not come up. But somehow in High Accuracy mode, it does get somewhere of an approximation of my location.(from network and Wifi).(This does not go well when you are navigating around)
Have you guys encountered this. I have even tried flashing the new L09 Rom and it is still the same.
Also searched around the forums (Looks like the old Samsung phones had this issue where after encryption the GPS would not work). But the post is way back in 2011. And they din follow up on the posts on how it was fixed.
I have factory reset my phone a number of times, flash new rom(the one shared on this forum)
Also played with the settings nothing happens. I still cannot get GPS to work after encryption.
Also another thing I notice is that during the encryption a strange error came up and say that Settings have stopped working. I do not know whether there is a coincidence or not and whether it has anything to do with this GPS problems..
Any help is welcomed. as having a phone with no GPS is really driving me up the wall.

Really sorry for late response - but you can fix this problem using attached file - this is apk from China version of Mate7 make you be able to give (or revoke) access to system data storages (including GPS) to applications.
I had the same problem as you - and using this apk i've fixed it successfully.
it doesn't work for me - can anybody sent printsceen of settings of this app?
Thanks
@nchee + @mireczeque
Have you BOTH re-flashed the stock rom by using the official HUAWEI procedure (i.e. three buttons pressed togheter and ROM saved on DLOAD folder)? If so, do you have ALSO applied a WIPE DATA FACTORY RESET plus a WIPE CACHE PARTITION?
I had some problems with APPS crashing when I tried restoring my HAM with B130. I WIPED everithing and THEN re-flashed fresh B130 from DLOAD sdcard procedure, and everithing worked perfectly. I hope this help.

Hi i'm running CM11 nightly 20150105 huashan (Xperia SP) with Williams kernel v5
Everytime i turn on my wifi, the phone slows down to a crawl, apps stop responding and sometimes the screen goes blank.
After some time, around 3-5 minutes, i get functionality back
I'm thinking that perhaps the auto-syncing of apps is what causes this freezing? how can i disable this? as in prevent Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc from auto-syncing.
Or perhaps there is a fix to the wifi problem? I've tried searching the forums but i can't find anything similar to my problem
EDIT: No physical damage to the phone
Hi,
You will need to ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from.
Good luck!
Hello everyone.
I'm having trouble with my h950 (installed the PR 5.1.1 rom long time ago) device.
A week ago WiFi stopped working. This is:
When I choose a network I want to connect to, it starts connecting but instantly the wifi turns off and then it turns on and it turns off and so on...
I already tried doing a hard reset and also installing the KDZ for the 5.1.1 PR version again but it remains the same.
Has anyone gone through this issue or anyone who can give me any advice?
Thanks
more info?
Hi there,
what is the *exact* behaviour your WiFi exhibits? Does it keep flashing like in this video?

If so, you might be experiencing a hardware issue. I've written a detailed summary about this, you may want to check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/qa-wifi-stuck-mac-020000000000-g2-g3-g4-t3452133
Good luck, and keep us posted if you find a solution for your problem!
NimbleWeasel, thanks for your reply.
I got a friend to upload a video. on youtube Not the best quality. Ignore the sounds
I can't post a video since I'm a new user. The youtube id for the video is R1pKIzJ5mwg
I think it IS the same problem.
If it actually is a hardware issue, I guess I'll just have to get a new phone.
WiFi trouble...
hi disreggae,
i watched your video but it seems to be a different problem.
i'll write you a private message with something that you can try if you want.
my wifi is not working
It says its on but nothing is showing up and I can't connect to anything and my wifi will not turn off and I tried to reset everything and still is not working
Hi all,
I have searched for any past references to this issue quite a bit but found nothing in here so thought I would ask. Maybe my searching skills are not good
Whenever an app that requires aGPS starts, both my sims and my wifi disconnect and reconnect in a continuous loop. This has started happening since I factory reset my phone and then installed my company's work profile in the summer. I had a look on the OnePlus forums and it's a known issue since the beginning of the year but OP have done nothing about it. I need my work profile because of course I work a lot from my phone and even though a recommended fix is to switch off location services so that this doesn't happen, location for me is a very important function on my phone.
Does anybody know of any solution to this that I couldn't find? Am I going to have to go the route of a custom ROM to address this? I haven't had a phone with a custom ROM since my XDA IIs so really don't want to do this
Thank you in advance!
nobody? . . .
