[Completed] [Q] WiFi hotspot won't turn on. - XDA Assist

I installed the 3g/4g optimizer app (see screenshot) after reading about it in an article. After installation, I changed the speed to the highest setting. I rebooted (as instructed) and was unable to get my hotspot to function. I changed the setting back to normal and rebooted. I still couldn't turn on the WiFi hotspot. I uninstalled the app, rebooted, still no WiFi hotspot. I did a factory reset, no hotspot. I had been running the hotspot up until the first reboot to fuel my tablet. I press to check the box "turn wifi hotspot on” the check shows up, albeit grey. The connected icon never shows on the notification tray my other devices can't pick it up. I also noticed when trying to turn on bluetooth tethering, settings is forced closed. I DO HAVE A SUBSCRIPTION for my hotspot. Can you please help me, my hotspot is vital to me.

Seriously? No ideas? Surely it's not over EVERYONE'S head...

[Q] Samsung I5500 WiFi problem

Hello all,
I have installed Cyanogen's 7.1 on my phone, everything is working as it should, apart from the WiFi. When I go into the WiFi setting to turn it on nothing happens. I can try scanning for a connection but nothing comes up. I have tried other Apps like WiFi Manager and still get the same issue. It doesn't seem to be picking anything up.
I have tried detecting the router on my partners iPhone and it picks it up fine.
Can anyone help me with this WiFi problem?
Thanks in advance
Forgot to also mention....
When activated (turned on) after about a minute of nothing happened, WiFi turns itself back off

[Q] GizRoot_v_2:: Two issues Can Fix?

Hello, I applied this ROM yesterday I don't have enough posts to put the question in the original thread where I downloaded the ROM but I am
and am very happy with the results but there are two issues. One is that I no longer get the “weather sound” when the clock/weather widget is doing a full screen animation.
No huge deal but I kind of liked that.
The other thing, which is a big deal to me, is that the wireless will not connect automatically, either to open wifi that is remembered, or at home where I have WPA security. It also does not notify me of open networks, even though I have that option checked. Another thing (and this goes back to the OEM ROM as well) is that there are three “AT&T Wifi Hotspot” listings and I cannot “forget “ them.
I connect to one of these at Starbucks but do not know why there are three of them. I also do not use AT&T I use a pre-paid T-Mobile with no date plan so that is why the auto connect to Wifi is so important.
Can anyone offer any advice? I am a total newb but I think I did the “full wipe” correctly, I ran a file called FULL_WIPE_1.5_EXT4_.zip
However, I noticed that after the wipe/ROM flash I still had my remembered wireless networks on the phone, as well as the name of the phone for Bluetooth, which I had changed. So it did retain some info even though it make me do the whole setup routine again once I had flashed this ROM.
Thanks in advance for any advice. I do like Sense but wanted some of the stuff I can do with root, but it is very important for me to be able to auto connect to remembered wifi networks as I don't have a data plan. I really don't want go go back to the unrooted version that is posted on the HTC page.
OK stupid a** me I found the toggle for weather sound so now the only issue is the connection to WiFi if anyone can help out. I have tried toggling WiFi on and off, forgetting and then re-connecting to my home WiFi, a restart and an off/on start, but once I am disconnected from a known Wifi it will not reconnect on it's own I have to go into menu/wireless/networks and then it will do a scan and connect automatically, but with the stock rom it always connected automatically, to remembered networks once I was in range, even if the phone was in sleep mode.
Please post all questions in the Q & A section. Thanks. Thread moved.

[Completed] [Q] Switching wifi and bluetooth problem. HTC Desire 616.

Before I had this problems, I was using WiFi Killer and Network Spoofer on my HTC Desire 616. After a while, my phone restart automatically. Then I realized that the wifi sign on my notification bar didn't appeared. So I went to the setting and checked the wifi but it keep saying "Turning on wifi...". same story when I tried to switch on my bluetooth. I've already tried switched off my phone and factory reset many time but nothing change. Any suggestion? That would be great for me to try.

[Completed] Broke my Wifi with an App?

Hello!
Yesterday I Installed the Application Pry-Fi (Pry-Fi Changes MAC-Addresses) on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005). The app worked great and did what its supposed to to.
When I went sleep I turned my Wifi off. The next Morning I wanted to turn my wifi back on but it doesnt work anymore. If I turn wifi ON the switch changes but doesent go green. After 10 to 20 seconds wifi turns back off. I'am Not able to search for wifi networks Anymore but I can my a Wifi Hotspot with my Phone. So I think that my WIFI Antenna/Chip isn,t broken.
I made a factory reset so I can use Wifi Again but It doesnt change. Wifi is not able to turn on!
What should I do the make the Wifi work Again??? Please HELP me!
Should I have to root my Phone again, install the app and try to fix it?
Sorry for my bad english

[Completed] Phone restarts when turning on wifi hotspot within a certain area. (Android 2.3.4)

Hi, whenever I turn on my wifi hotspot on my Pantech Crossover (p999, rooted) within a certain area around my school, it shows an error, sometimes showing that the hotspot is active at the same time. When I go into settings, the hotspot button says that the hotspot is not turned on despite the hotspot persistent notification. After clicking the button to turn it on again, my phone freezes, then restarts. This weird behavior ONLY happens near my school, as if it was a certain tower that caused it. My wifi and data works fine, and hotspot works great when I move about a half mile away.
I can't find anything like this on the internet at all, so I'm posting it in the best android forum out there.
Sorry if this thread is in the wrong location, is not formatted correctly, etc. It's my first post.
Thanks guys!
P.S. I have a pretty good understanding of android, rooting, custom roms, hardware, PC software, and the like, so feel free to explain things technically and stuff. Just don't ask me to pull out a linux distro and start sudo-ing things . I don't do linux very well.
Hi,
