[Q] Wifi Connected but not working!

WiFi is working on 2 other sgs2s but not on my NOTE! It was yesterday but not anymore! i tried everything, flashed another ROM (was using criskelo v4.1, flashed CheckROMv5) in vain! The weird part is that if i go to facebook in browser it works but nothing else works. No app, market, kitchen app, nothing! All works on 3g! It's extremely frustrating and i can't seem to find any answer anywhere!
If i start browsing with 3g then enable wifi, it works. I don't know what to do and i can't keep using 3G, it's extremely expensive in my country!
It started when i flashed UltimateKernelCleaningTool from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363738&page=13 before flashing AbyssNoteKernel35bOriginalLogo.zip.
Any clues?

Try assigning Static IP in WiFi Settings.

If everything Ok on device side, you may try to reset your Router. perticularly if mac protection enable, this issue occurs.

no mac protection is enabled on router, and if it's a router problem shouldn't other devices be affected by it? Laptop connected with internet, bro's sgs2 connected with internet, sis's sgs2 also!

could be kernel related, tried a different kernel?

yes, i tried abyss3.5b and cf kernel la4!
i prefer cf kernel since it has all functions enabled like 3 way torch and loop capabilities (no other kernel has those)! I've been using the cf kernel ever since i got my NOTE 2 month ago and never encountered that problem before!

Just want to share my experience. i faced similar problem today. I connected to WIFI in my office but was not working. Then i started browser and realized i need to login to cyberroam for WIFI to work. Everything worked smoothly thereafter. Hope this helps !!! Goodluck !!!

any firewall rules enabled on router? or any IPS/filter enabled?

i use droidwall, i tried disabling it but it didnt work! I tried browsing directly after clean install (no app installed) still didn't work! 3G works great.

dammit! wish my tablet was working I wanna see if wifi is working now!

Please Delete.

downloading....

Good news! I was having freeze problems with the first ICS update, I installed that... and all gone! Now I have a really nice tablet (only that 512Mb )
Thanks for the info!

Does update increase stability and reduce freezes, resets?
I installed the original version (4.0.4) and went over all the hurdles, reformat, install, slim down app library, turn off wifi, root and install memory management programs etc, with minimal success. The tablet was still not usably stable. Some would run for awhile ok but web browsing did not work at all. Even pdf reading caused soft reboots in different apps.
I downgraded to 3.2.80 and everything works fine again.
Does this version 4.0.5 fix those problems or is it still much less stable than honeycomb?
I am growing tired of all this upgrading and downgrading.
Thanks

Yes !
Doublepost because internet connection timeout
Please delete it
Thanks

Yes !
Yes -
But i think you must test it on your own network and router and such stuff.
For me:
on 4.0.4 wifi had massive problems with my o2 surfstation,
but now with 4.0.5 all problems gone.
For me its the best firmware.
Greeting
P.S you can test it unrooted and if its good then root it.
You can take Surdu_Petrus rooted firmware therefore, or his new custom rom which is based on original archos firmware 4.0.5 and which has lots of improvements.

Still unstable
The whole 4.0.5 is still unstable for me. My router is an airport express but even with others (no idea who makes them) it is problematic. A weak signal seems to cause connects and disconnects which leads to many programs force closing (Amazon Kindle, Files, Browser, ...)
Taking the microsd out makes it quite a bit better but the card had no problems in 3.2.80
So maybe it would be stable without wifi/sd/many apps, but that's kind of the reason I got a tablet in the first place

[Q] Yet Another wifi ICS issue

Hey peeps, ti me for my first post.
Well i upgraded tO stock germanICS a couple of days back. Everything was working fine until yesterday. WiFi is behaving weird, i can connect with no probs at home but i've noticed that the download arrow from the WiFi icon on status bar is on and off all the time, draining the battery faster than expected(e.g. rom 100% to 65% 3 hours almost no use). So i spoke with a friend of mine, kind of a geek, he told me it could be so me kind of compatibility issue between ICS and old router's firmware. So i went to a bar nearby to check if i could reproduce the same behaviour and everything was working normal.
Did Anyone here had anything similar? I've been surfing to do so me research, but all i've found is so me peoples probs with WiFi not connecting at all and some sII users withe their WiFi module broken.
Thanks in advance!

Also...
I´ve read somewhere that a factory wipe solved some wifi´s peoples probs. As i´m under german ICS LPY i know i´ll be likely bricking the note if i wipe, what leads to teh next question...is it possible to flash a kernell(without the bug) without being root?
Cheers,
VR
edit
So i´ve been reading quite some info about franco´s and speedmod´s kernels, and it´s so confusing for starters.My last question remains , is it possible to flash those for a non rooted device? Anyone that is running it tried wiping? Results?
Thx again
Edit 2
After some research i now know i need to root for any new kernel flash, as i read my post i´m starting to feel i´ve lost my head somewhere, so bear with me, hehehe. Also found out some people tried wiping with franco´s kernel with no probs, so i almost have the info i was looking for. So, in case i go root and get franco´s kernel up and running, do you think my WIFI issues might dissapear after wiping?

I have the same bug...with wifi also the os android buy draining ny battery so bad...im on stick rom gb 2.3.6 with the ssme oroblem....any solution?

[Q] [Xperia V] [9.2.A.1.210] Unstable wifi

Hello,
I upgraded my phone to the unbranded/Nordic version (9.2.A.1.210) from the original 9.1.A.1.140.
While this brought many positives (support of BLE for my forerunner & good battery life), it also brought some negatives:
- A terrible clicking noise when the camera is auto-focusing (clearly a known bug in all JB version ...)
- A very unstable wifi
On this second issue, I have not seen any other report of the issue.
The symptoms are quite basic, after some time (around couple of hours), the phone will no longer associate with any wifi.
The only method I found was to enable/disable the airplane mode to restore normal wifi operation ...
I have installed wifi-fixer for having more details, since the wifi is looping on the association mode (could be authentication errors on these known network). Of course, all authentication info are correct as the phone will connect properly once going through the airplane mode ...
I also re-flash that firmware, from the .ftf but also forcing it from Sony SUS ...
At this point I reverted back to 4.1.2 as I'd rather have less features but reliable one (wifi is flawless now - well just as it should be ...)
Anyone else with the problem ? Any solution identified ?

Same problem Here
Would you please point me to the tutorials to get back my phone to 4.1.2, thank you?

Just follow the guide in the general section (i.e. retrieve the right .FTF file and use flashtool), this is very straightforward.

Tried with the ROM from Singapore, same issue ...
=> Association rejected on all known wifi
(using the power button to cycle the airplane mode restore the wifi for 10-15 mn)
Any advice on how to troubleshoot ?

Maybe it's your wifi that gives problem of compatibility when you're on 4.3
Try with another wifi if you can..
And try to change some settings of your current wifi like number of channel, kind of encryption, and so on..

In fact the problem is more complex as sometime my wifi appears to be ok but I do not have any connectivity ...
Now, I believe I found some interesting infos:
=> prb is directly tied with usage of Bluetooth (especially 4.0 BLE)
When the wifi is 'broken', disabling BT will indeed restore normal wifi operation ...
I could not notice the issue before since Android 4.1.2 do not support BLE ...
I've notice others thread reporting WIFI/BT issue (notably around support of smartwatch)
In my case, I'm trying to have my garmin GPS Watch to pair with the phone, this is were the prb can be easily reproduced

I have the same issue! That damned Association Reject!
I can confirm this is due to Sony 4.3 as Wi-Fi still work normally on my other 4.3+ devices (Nexus 7 2012, Galaxy Nexus)
Sent from my LT25i using Tapatalk

Same here
i have tried numerous methods to fix this so far no luck..im on ub flashed 2 3 roms even stock rom with sus

One observation ...
This time, running stock .210 but not installing my BT4.0 Application (Garmin Connect), I only had the Wifi/BT issue once ...
I will install the application but not connect to my watch (Forerunner 620), to see where exactly is the breaking point.
After all these, I will certainly consider unlocking my bootloader and try the Omni ROM (as I see Walter79 is extremely active)

Massive wifi bug on stock Lollipop

Wifi turns off automatically and it's impossible to make it work again without rebooting. Am I the only one with this issue?

I have a variant of this, I've tried with both the .03 and .04 radios, it's the same, so it's not the radio itself:
I lose coverage so I get the wifi icon with the exclamation mark, instead of it reconnecting automatically. Switching wifi off, then back on, allows me to use wifi again.
I'm using the NX5 AOSP ROM, 5.0R6 (LRX21T)
We all get different experiences, but it sounds like the root cause is likely the same.
Give as much information as you can (Android version, radio, which particular ROM, usage), otherwise it's impossible to understand what could be causing the issue.

The same happens on my Nexus 10 (which doesn't have a radio as far as I know) with stock rooted 5.0.

Wi-Fi delayed list...
A very annoying bug that i am facing is when i enable Wi-Fi i have to wait more than two minutes to get the Wi-Fi network list meanwhile i might get messages like "settings are not responding" also none of the new Wi-Fi networks are saved b in to saved network list, so i have to enter wpa keys again and again....

Did you do a clean install or did you just install it over your 4.4?

once you click "flash all.bat" it formats and cleans everything, so I guess I clean flashed it.

I guess I'm just wondering if these are issues are due to not starting a clean slate. I typically try to do a clean wipe of the internal NAND whenever it's a major revision change (4.4 > 5.0).
But if the bugs are persistent for those of you who did a clean install...maybe it's better to hold off for now.

I did a clean flash all as well and have the same issue where WiFi is never turned off. Wtf google. Battery was awesome right before the update

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll hold for now.

as for me, usb tether always turns of itself when i wake/turn the screen on
stock image rooted using CF
wifi works fine

Mine would lose connectivity, meander about for 30 - 60 seconds, and reconnect. I set the WiFi antenna to 2.4Ghz (from Auto) and turned off "Scanning always available" (although I doubt the latter had anything to do with it) and it's been fine ever since. This was on a clean factory install -- no root, no OTA update; pure OEM Lollipop ROM.

Whenever i go to settings > Wifi settings the phone freezes for a couple of seconds and then it crashes. This happens like 70% of the time.
Anyone else having this ?

I dont have any wifi etc problems
Only thing i have noticed so far is the recent apps bug that shows up sometimes
--------------------
Phone: Nexus 4
OS: rooted Lollipop LRX21T
Bootloader: unlocked
stock Recovery

Bluetooth tethering between nexus 4 and nexus 7 breaks every 30 mins or so.
You have to reboot to get it working again.

Decided to take the plunge. Installed lollipop. Am happy to say that I do not have this issue occuring to me though.

yup, wifi issues for me.
Notice it when I get home, my wifi will not connect and when I go to check the settings it has been turned off. So of course I try to turn it on but everything I try does not work, I am unable to get it to turn on. Only a reboot will get wifi working again.
Not happy at all about this. and a couple of other features. Now I'm wishing I never did the update. Google you have taken my expensive smart phone and turned it against me.

It could be a combination of your router and something they've changed in how Lollipop handles networking.

I have the same issue. On my Nexus 4, I just set it to 2.4 GHz only, as 5 GHz has never worked since 4.3. I can only connect if I hold the phone up to the router. On my Nexus 7 where 5GHz actually works well, I like the fact it prefers 5GHz.
