[Q] Wi-Fi only xoom won't connect to wi-fi

Hello all-
For the past couple days my wi-fi only xoom will not connect to wi-fi. I have tried multiples networks and nothing. When I hit connect and type in my network key( i have double checked and made sure I was typing in the right key) it constantly switches between scanning and connecting. I am not or ever have been rooted, and I have tried a factory reset still nothing. I am on 3.1 which was updated OTA not pushed to my xoom. Please help. I know if anyone can its the folks here at XDA. Thanks in advance for your help.

First thing I would do is disable all security on the network and see if it connects then, if it does then its not a hardware issue.
Remember to turn all the security on though when your done

I gave it a shot and still nothing. I tried connecting to my MyTouch hotspot and at Starbucks as well. Do you think the xoom is broken. I used to be able to connect no problem. This just started happening the last few days. Thanks!

OK so what's changed in the last few days then, any updates or app installs that might have screwed something up....?
Have you switched the Xoom off and on again?
If all else fails do a backup and reset the device..
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App

Not much has changed. I haven't installed any new apps in a month or so. As soon as the problem started happening I uninstalled all apps I had installed since i bought it. After that didn't work I did a factory reset. I really appreciate all your help on this.

[Q] WiFi stops working after a few minutes

Hey I've got a stock OnePlus One and I've been having a problem with the wifi since day one (i think).
It connects initially and works for a few minutes. Sometimes after 5-10 minutes, sometimes after 30 minutes it just stops. I have to disconnect from WiFi and connect again to make it work again.
This problem is very frustrating - any help is appreciated!
Thank you!

This is a known bug that has yet to be resolved since 38R.
Uncheck wifi optimization in the wifi settings. some have reported that works

Thanks!
I've tried that but the problem is still there. Any other suggestions? Would a factory reset work?

uneek14,
There are tons of people out their with this issue and there have been more fixes than I can count. Now not all of them work for everyone. Personally for me the only fix was to swap out my router/modem combo from my ISP. You can check here.... https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-118 as there is an ongoing discussion on it. Maybe some other people's solutions will work for you
Hope this helps and you can sort it out

Nexus 5 WiFi Crashing Phone

Hi all. I have a weird issue that after Googling it doesn't seem anyone else has had.
The issue started earlier today, in the morning. I was using my phone on the WiFi and it was working phone, then my phone crashed, restarted itself.
I noticed it wasn't connected to the WiFi, went to the WiFi settings and where it usually says the list of networks it said "Turning on WiFi" and the slider at the top was greyed out so I couldn't turn it off.
I tried airplane mode and that didn't help. But the phone was working fine on my mobile data so restarted.
Now the weirder part starts. I basically have an issue where, if I turn on the WiFi, my phone crashes, or doesn't act like it's turning the WiFi on.
Even going Settings and then pressing on the WiFi option freezes the phone.
The problem started when I was still using 4.4.4 however since the problem developed I've used my mobile data to download the updates and now have 5.1.1 I think.
The problem persists even after updating to the most recent version and doing a factory restore. The phone is currently completely stock with nothing downloaded on to it. All I did is go through the first time setup for the device.
The WiFi currently is off, and the phone is working however it won't connect to my data, it has the signal bars and then an ! instead of a 4G icon.
If I try to turn the WiFi on it crashes the phone.
The phone is still under warranty so I plan on contacting LG on Monday however it's currently 3:34 AM on a Sunday so I have a day until I can call them and was hoping for a solution in that time.
Thanks in advance. I have the phone to hand so anything you want me to test I'm able to.
There is some information I didn't type as I don't know what is important was trying to avoid a wall of text so if you have any more questions I'll answer I best I can.
Thanks for reading, I hope you can help!

Honor 8 Hotspot keeps on disabling itself for no reason

Hello!
I've had my Honor 8 for about a year now, and I haven't had any problems until now.
Basically, when I activate the hotspot, it just disables itself after a few seconds, even if my wifi is turned off and my mobile data is on. I've tried changing the frequency, the name, the password, everything.
I'm not root and the only thing I haven't tried and don't want to try is a factory reset.
Sometimes it works though, and I have found no link with anything yet.
I recorded my phone but unfortunately I can't send a YouTube link (new user)..
Any idea?

Have this problem too. It can be fixed by switching in Hotspot setting/Device list/Enabled devices from All to Enabled (add the requested device into whitelist). It is strange.

Have the same problem

Sorry for ressurecting, but I have same issue. It doesn't disable itself, but stops working after a minute, the displays goes off. :/

Mobile hotspot not working...

Has there been a fix for this? My mobile hotspot will turn on and then off again immediately after being turned on. This has only started happening since Pie was installed. I've seen other people with the issue but haven't seen a fix yet.

So I got it working... anyone else having this same problem you will want to make sure "tethering entitlement" isn't frozen or uninstalled. It was frozen/disabled from the day I bought the phone new I never did it but as soon as I enabled it the hotspot worked.
