[Help][SG Note 4 SM-910G LP 5.0.1]Issue with wifi, wifi hotspot and mobile network - General Questions and Answers

Dear xdaians
I am getting some problems in my new Note 4 SM 910G[India] after updating to the lollipop.
1. The wifi is getting turned ON automatically. Even if i turn it OFF, the next moment it will turn ON. This affecting the WiFi hotspot. Whenever i try to turn ON the wifi hotspot, after some time it will show one message "Turning on wifi will disable the WiFi hotspot" and WiFi turns ON automatically. So i have to use the "Forget network" option to get out from the wifi network. But it becomes really hectic. I googled the same but could not get similar ones or others are getting the problem like WiFi is turning OFF automatically.
2. Mobile network is getting disconnected. I don't see any problem with network operator or the SIM tray. Sometimes the "Network mode" option will be cleared automatically and no operators are available in "Network operators" and mobile is disconnected. It requires a restart to connect the mobile to the network back. If i try to select any option in "Network mode", the option becomes disabled!.
Any solution for the above two issues?. Divert the thread if you have any known solutions.
Thanks and regards,
Prajeesh

Sometimes you will need to wipe the device after a lollipop update so it should be stable.

Thanks Newyork!. The wifi issue got resolved after executing the wipe. However the network issue is still present and one another issue came up now is with bluetooth. Bluetooth control stops sometimes (Even-though it is connected ).

Can I turn off GPRS only?

I noticed that if wifi is not available, Polaris connects to GPRS automatically. I want to use only wifi for internet connection, and would like to turn off GPRS leaving wifi working, because GPRS is very costly. Can anyone help?
try this app.
This application can turn off GPRS only if it is already active, I want GPRS/3G to be turned off permanently.
i'm not getting what you mean. U have installed GPRS/EDGE.... settings. If U run this app u see all your connections as ENABLED. U need to select each one and after press TOGGLE button (ENABLED changes to DISABLED). So afterwards device is not able 2 connect thru GPRS/Edge... If u need it from time to time just start app and pres toggle again to enable
settings->connection->connections->advanced->select network
pick the item in the dropdownbox for auto connect network which is not my isp
Easy. After you set up your wifi connection, go to your Comm Manager and switch off Data Connection. Wifi has to be on. If you switch it off, Data Con will come back on.
Basically have your wifi permanently on and all your apps would use that instead of 3G/GPRS.
Edit: Sorry missed the auto connect when 'no network available' point. What Rudegar said is sound.
Is there any known consequences of wifi permanently on?

You mean other than the wifi draining your battery, and as you go around the city always bugging you whith "new network found" dialogs, and having to connect to an unprotected AP every time you want something from the net?
No, not realy

[Q] Problem with Wifi and Mobile network (Radios)

Wifi refuses to turn on. It sits there saying "turning wifi on..." but never gets there. My phone also refuses to connect to any mobile network when my SIM card is in. I've had this phone for less than a month. I factory reset and no dice. Is this a hardware problem I'll have to fix by sending it in? Any help is appreciated!

Wifi Connection Problem

Hello All,
I am trying to connect to my work network with no luck! Prior to the one plus one I had a Nexus 5 that connected with no issues. This is what happens:
1. Choose connect (password is saved)
2.The text under the SSID goes from "connecting" back to "saved" in less than a second. The signal bars show 3 then drop to 1.
I've tried forgetting the network, flashing different ROM, kernel, modem with no luck.
Turned off "Avoid poor network connections" and "Wi-Fi optimization:
With the Wifi analyzer app the connection is steady around -60 to -50 dBm. If I try to connect using the wifi analyzer app it just stays on "Authenticating". I know the password is correct, I've re-entered it multiple times.
The wifi network is using the 2.5 ghz band, channel 1, and WPA authentication.
I haven't tried connecting with a static IP, however I might try this next.
Any ideas, this is driving me nuts! Plus all the iPhones around me get to brag!
Thanks in advanced.
I'm having the same problem, and it also seems to stumble connecting to data networks. I have been toggling airplane mode on/off and it then finds the wifi and data networks. This is annoying as hell, when it should auto find and lock any network it has remembered and passwords are correct.
Does anybody have a fix, or is there a radio that can be flashed to correct this?

I'd love to hear any resolutions to this issue as well... I posted this in the oneplus forums recently:
"I am having this problem too with my mom and dad's OPO . But what's funny is that it doesn't happen to my OPO. This sort of rules out any WiFi/router/network issues. Is it possible that certain installed apps on their phones may render the wifi to be unstable (e.g. permission settings for these apps?) Any help from the community is appreciated, thanks... this is an annoying problem for them as it drains out their LTE data!"

I do not have any connection issues to the mobile network. Can you check at another location?
OP, try "Mobile data always active" in Developer settings. Also try "Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth".

I have some network problems too on my 2 days old Asus zenfone 6. The signal from mobile network is lost for few seconds and imediatly after the signal of wifi is lost. Does anyone have a solution for that?
No network issue as such.
But mobile network standby battery is twice that of screen battery consumption. Could be both are related
Yes, I am having network issues but I am not sure if its the phone issue or airtel network issues. So waiting to see if it fixes after few days.
I have network issues since updating to the 156 firmware. While having full 4g reception the phone switches to 3g for a few seconds without success and then 2g. It show full 2g reception but everything i try runs into a timeout. Switching to 3g only brings back full 3g connectivity most of the time, switching to flight mode and back does not help. Rebooting the phone does not help. If i just let the phone sit in 2g without a connection it "fixes" itself after 10-15 mins. This happens a few times a day. I have tried using different providers (tmobile and vodafone) but the problem remains.

Keep losing data and getting a "sign into network" notification from AT&T

Keep losing data and getting a "sign into network" notification from AT&T
On my Galaxy S8, I consistently have an issue where when I turn my WiFi off, a notification pops up that prompts me to sign into the AT&T network. I lose all data connection when this happens, and tapping the notification brings me to a window that says either not to connect, or to try and connect anyway. Trying to connect always resorts in a failure. Restarting the phone is currently the only way to reconnect to mobile data. Does anyone have a potential solution for this?
