I've purchased a Milestone X720 for my wife, but I found the internal WiFi to work erratically at best.
It seems like it has no problem connecting to Google.com webpage (also it can sync mails and contacts), but when trying to access any other webpages (bbc.co.uk, espn.com, etc.) using the browser, it's always timing out. I know it's not a problem with my WiFi / internal network / router /internet connection, because I can navigate just fine using my HTC Desire or home laptops.
It worked for a while yesterday afternoon, then this morning wasn't able to connect to any website.
The wifi connection is using DHCP, and it shows a correct internal IP address and an excellent signal level. I don't think there's much more things I can tweak in the phone configuration, or isn't there?
Maybe it is a defective phone? Did someone experienced something like this? Should I return it and exchange it for a new one?
I'd appreciate any help.
Alex.
Actually, I've been having problems with my wifi. My wifi will stop working on any webpage at seemingly random intervals (I used to think it was when it went into sleep, but it happens when it's not in sleep now also). Eventually after restarting wifi so many times it'll glitch up and I have to restart the phone.
Providing your phone's stock (as in you haven't rooted it or the like) I'd recommend going to your carrier about the problem.
EDIT: I just checked through the posts on this board and some guy was having another problem with his wifi (different from both of ours though), he suggested getting WifiPowerSavingOff off the market, I'll try it and tell you if it fixes my problem. The only problem is it requires root access, I don't even know if it will fix your problem so you're better off sending the phone back (especially since rooting voids your warrenty). One other thing you could try is just a factory reset, it sounds like a software problem so that might work wonders, you might have to reactivate your phone afterwards though.
Well, thank you for your response.
WiFi was working OK when I came back from work, but is not working now.
The phone is unbranded unlocked, so I'll probably have to talk to the seller.
I tried to see if there was an update from Motorola, but every time I go to the System Updates it says that it is unable to connect to the server, so there's probably no available update for this phone yet.

If it's unlocked OTA updates (updating through the settings) are probably disabled, because installing OTA updates will make you lose root (I'm assuming your phone also is rooted if it was unlocked by the seller). do you know what baseband your using right now? Also, have you installed rom manager or anything that can make nandroid backups?
I might be wrong, but I don't think it's rooted, I think it's just the way it's sold, SIM free and unlocked from factory, not by the seller.
Baseband is 3GSMEPU91A_U_91.07.56I
Well if you wanna double check, just look to see if a superuser permissions app is installed (if you don't find one it's not rooted), I never knew they sold them unlocked (although I'm in the US... so I doubt they do here). All I can say is to try a factory reset then, if that doesn't work then talk to the seller. It sounds like more of a software problem since Google works.
In the end it seems there is some kind of incompatibility between the phone and my WiFi router (a Belkin G). Yesterday I managed to borrow another WiFi router (Netgear) and it works flawlessly when connected to this AP.
I will keep testing during the weekend but I'm pretty sure this was the cause.
Thanks Shiny for your help.
Hi. I picked up a milestone via Ebay two days ago and had similar wi-fi issues. After reading a number of forums I discovered that the problem lay with my router - Siemans Gigaset SE587 (Tiscali). The wireless channel or regulatory domain was set to auto channel 1. I think this confuses the phone so with the help of the router manual I disabled auto and reset it to channel 13.
Wi-fi works flawlessly now and it hasn't affected my other devices. The link below might help.
i upgraded to an Evo and now i have my hero lying around collecting dust.. i have a friend that uses cricket and i did a ton of research to get it working but my searches stopped when i read that corpus christi and surrounding areas are in what are called an asw (or something like that) market and that either way the phone wont work flashing it to cricket.. so they went ahead and switched to pocket and i took the phone into the pocket store and they tried to flash it using their houdini software but it wasnt detecting the phone (because they need to load the htc drivers) so they guy pretty much said that they can flash it, i told him that he can get the drivers from the houdinisoft website and he claimed that they dont have internet at the store but that the IT guys installed the software... so as of right now im on a mission on flashing the phone myself.. ive found mms settings and things like that but my main thing is the initial flash to get talking and txt going.. so my question is, has anyone been able to flash this phone to pocket.. im just needing to know if i just need to use all the same steps as i do for cricket or metro since searches regarding "pocket" are limited.. sometimes its not even listed as a carrier on certain forums.. howardforums had some info but not enough of what ive needed.. any help would be appreciated during my journey.. thanks
I assume its the same as changing any phone to a different service provider. You just need all the settings for Pocket and put them into the Hero. Basically when a company flashes a phone to work on their network they are putting all of the settings into the phone automatically and not manually like you are doing. I think getting voice calls to work is the easiest to setup and getting mms, sms and internet working is a bit harder if you can not figure out username, etc. But most use the [email protected]
if you have access to a data enabled pocket wireless phone that you can read via qpst or cdma workshop you should be able to get all the info you need to put into the hero. Does pocket wireless sell hero's or any other htc phone that you could get diagnostic drivers for? just load up a netbook and pull from the in store phones maybe?
thats what i was thinking.. a friend of mine brought her pocket phone and i was going to get all the information of the phone using qpst as well as cdma wrkshp but when she brought the phone i was having problems reading it on the pc.. i think the cable was just jacked up.. she was going to borrow a cable from a friend of hers and is gonna bring it over today for a round 2.. ill see if that works
so i transferred all settings from a pocket phone onto the hero and when i went to the store and they tried doing an esn swap its gave an error saying that the phone couldnt be activated because the correct software wasnt used.. looks like im gonna have to program it using the houdini software.. ive dwnlded the program from houdinisoft dot come but it acts for a user name and password so im gonna have to do a little investigating to see whats up with that.. until next time
Ok guys. I am not sure what is going on here.
I can't connect to my schools wifi and it is becoming a royal PITA.
I can connect to wifi perfectly fine at home.
At school, they don't require any sort of "password" to access the network. (no wep or anything I mean) They do have one of those annoying/retarded portal login systems which seems to be coded to only care for laptops.... Actually I should say coded for a hand full of browsers ON the laptop.
I once or twice a week or so ago was able to actually access the login page either by entering it manually and being able to actually use wifi for a few minutes.. or by getting redirected.
I took the problem up with the help desk, they said we now have alimit of 4 wireless devices and my allowance was maxed.
Unlikely but, whatever..
So now over the last few days won't redirect me, it won't let me even enter the login address manually.. (before it wasn't a sure thing but, I could at least do it.)
I am rooted running cog 3.03. (Which does have the 2.2 update) Had the same problem on stock 2.1.
Goes without saying I'm rooted and willing to do what it takes to get wifi working here.. Even if I did happen to have unlimited data.. my school is pretty Iphone heavy... especially at lunch, And some days I am just happy to receive the occassional text I can get from my girlfriend.
But, fact is I don't have unlimited data.. I have extremely limited data.
If anyone has a solution, I would appreciate it.
Tried:
Wifi fixer in market.
Rebooting.
"forgetting" then reconnecting. (a million times).
Manually assigning an IP address.
Praying to Cthulhu
Using multiple browsers to see if one works with portal better.
and I am out of idea's..
Any chance you need to enter a proxy server?
I have never needed to enter a proxy server before with any other device.
And I have never found anything suggesting I would anywhere on the school website.

You might ask around about it. The browser is probably set to auto detect a proxy. You don't have that on the phone.
Although, you do indicate you actually did connect for a bit a while back, so it likely isn't the proxy.
Sorry. Don't know what else to offer.
I appreciate the effort, unfortunately my school didn't resolve the issue either so I am unsure what to do..
You might be on to something with the proxy...
No telling how the looney's set this stuff up...
Do you have the login page in your favorites? And does the device connect to the wireless "hotspot"?
I'd test it at a starbucks (or mcdonalds of all places have them too) and see if the issue repeats itself. The ATT hotspot requires you accept the agreement before it allows you to browse.
If it doesn't work.. I'd go back to stock and see if you continue having the same issues. If the issues are resolved when going back to stock - then you'd need to bug DG for a possible fix with his ROM as that is possibly where the problem lies.
Yes it does happen to connect at other places.
I can get it working at home no problem.
I have the url memorized at this point to log in..
Part of the reason i rooted was one or two people said it cleared whatever wifi problems they wre having up..
Infact I would agree with that more than anything..
Although it didn't fix my problems, I have been able to do a bit more..
I hate with a passion bumping my own thread.. but, if anyone can help.. I would appreciate it.
i think your issue might not be your phone but your school unfortunately... when you are there to connect, are there a lot of others there as well?? for example, where i am at, they have their access points set up and i can select it with my phone, but sometimes i get on and sometimes i dont.. the issue is that they limit the amount of connected users and it might show that you are connected, but you don't in fact have access.. does this sound about like what you are having??
a test (and this will suck) is to let it connect and if it isnt connected, sit there for a while and watch as people leave and see if you connect.. usually they slot peeps in order as they log in via their IP.. so depending on how many users are not able to connect, you might not be the first to get on.. this sux and i know.. it happens here all the time and some times i have drained my laptop battery sitting there trying to connect.. now that i have my phone, 1 or the other will connect first
hope it helps a little.. but like said.. good chance its not your phone .. if it is your phone.. i am not really sure what else to think of at the moment..

Short Story: Is there anyway to make the nexus start working without WiFi?
Long Story: Sherman, set the Way-Back Machine for about a month ago. So there I was the day of the Google I/O conference refreshing the google play store over and over again until the moment I could order my Nexus 7. Needless to say I ordered it the minute I could. Today I recieved my Nexus 7. It took a while to get here. I picked it up from the mailroom three hours ago. I let it charge and turned it on. First screen asks for my country. Second screen says searching for WiFi. And there I sit because , I don't have WiFi. Is there a workaround for this? Or do I have a $250 paperweight, until I get home later this year?
I can't be the only one with this problem.
Resources available to me:
1) I have a laptop that is connected to very slow internet (ethernet, not wireless). It has USB ports, but I don't think theres a way to share internet through USB. I can not attach a wifi router to this network.
2) I have WiFi where I sleep, but I need to open a browser and put in a username and password to log in. I don't think that will work because I can't get to the web browser part of this.
My last resort is to mail it back home to have family activate it and then mail it back to me. Kind of absurd. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Josh
EDIT************
ATTN TROLLS: before replying and looking stupid, make sure to read the whole thread. The problem has been resolved. I even explained how I resolved it for other people with potentially the same problem. I have also clearly explained why I bought the Nexus 7. A tablet is a tablet. Without WiFi it still lets me read books, play games, do Sudoku puzzles, and watch episodes that I bring back on a USB thumb drive. I used it to replace my Nook Color running CM7. I have enough WiFi back in my room to browse the web and check my email.
Thanks to everyone that offered constructive help.
To the trolls, I hope you get pushed down a slide of razors into a pool of acid.
Does the laptop ha e wifi, if so you can share the wired internet connection wirelessly via connnectify

Well, if you are rooted (should be able to root without setting up) then you can just kill the 'setup', process through adb on your pc. You could also try to flash a ROM without that set up process. Like CM
I thought this when I was setting up my tablet and wondered when would happen if someone didn't have wi fi available immediately.

Or this. But hey, go grab a coffee, then root.
I had wifi and it still couldn't detect it when i turned it on! I panicked and i sat there at the first screen bevause there was no option to manually enter wifi settings. My network has secure and ssid off, but couldn't even see neighbours (ssid on).
But I tethered insecure net from phone to get past first screen. Should be able to borrow a friend's internet this way, it doesn't download much.
I have no idea how you plan to use the n7 w/o wifi, at least during setup, it is in terms of service...

Not sure if this still works, but you used to be able to bypass activation by touching all four corners of the device. Top left, top right, bottom right, and bottom left.
I tried the four corners thing. It didn't work. Unfortunately there are no McDonalds or Starbucks near me. I only have these two networks to work with. I bough it to replace my Nook (CM7), which I use to watch episodes of TV shows. I bring the mSD card to work, and put episodes on it, then bring it back to the room and watch them till I fall asleep. With the Nexus I was intent on copying my episodes over through the ethernet cable by day, and taking it back to the room to watch them at night. I guess I'll have to keep watching my shows on my Nook. Sucks. New toy is useless.

I take it u can't skip the sign in like on phones, if u have no way of getting on a wifi network, you can possibly try to kill the setup process via adb...its not really a google oversight, its 2012 WiFi networks are rather easy to find.
I guess I'm just lucky enough to be where they aren't easy to find.

I have no cell phone coverage here. Although I might be able to use my cell phone to connect to the wireless back at the room, use the cell phone web browser to log on, then tether it to my Nexus. That might work. I'll try that tonight.

use a WIFI dongle to attach to your laptop. make it a hotspot using "connectify" software and connect your nexus to it. your laptop must have internet access.
setup aside, how did you plan on managing files etc on the n7 long term without wifi?
Seems there are other products more suited to your needs if you aren't going to use any online or network features.

Ok, where do I start?
My last phone was a Galaxy IIIs. Rooted it and installed "The Peoples Rom". Had very few problems with it and used it like that for 4+ years.
So finally I get a new phone, Note 4, Rooted it and have kept it stock. I have had so many problems with this phone. Its just HORRIBLE. I dont know if its the stock rom that sucks, or the phone. I used Apex launcher pro, maybe its that. IDK.
When I bought this note, I bought 2 others, one for my son and one for my daughter. have left them alone, no mods. They dont seem to have the problems I do either. My WiFi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting, which really pisses me off because I constantly use the phone to control my chromecast. I will be watching something, doesnt matter if its Youtube, Netflix, Videostream, whatever, when I grab my phone again to click "play next episode" or whatever reason, the wifi has disconnected and reconnected but it screws up my chromecast connection and I have to try to reconnect to it, which usually screws up the queue, or play next episode, just whatever the hell it is, I have to force close, reconnect, and go through so much BS its ridiculous. It will also just turn off by itself and I have to turn it back on, even though I have it set to NEVER turn off, sleeping or whatever.. Uhg. When it turns off, its usually in the morning when I first grab it, I notice its off, and have to toggle it on. And sometimes I notice it has turned off when I get home from running around town.
I have data turned off. I dont use cell data AT ALL, ever. I also have WiFi settings set to never sleep, choose best signal unchecked, etc.. I have 2 routers in my house, one at each end. Doesnt matter what router I am connected to or what channel, security, and so on, the phone acts the same. keeps disconnecting and immediately reconnecting. I have also set it up for Static IP, which didnt change anything either. I have it set to connect to just ONE router and have had it "forget" all others.
Yes, I searched google and have tried all of the tips that were relevant.. I even tried Tasker to see if there was some way to force WiFi to stay connected. It's NOT a matter of signal strength, I get full bars and only 1 bar missing when I am outside. So I dont think its a problem with my antanna. I dont know what to do now. Maybe try a new ROM? Throw it against the wall? Seems like my device is defective becuase the kids say they dont have any problems with the wifi, but they dont use it as much or in the means that I do. And trying to get your teenage kid to hand over their phone so you can test it for a while, is like, well you know. lol
I know this is more of a rant than anything else but if someone has any ideas please let me know.
List of what I have done so far.
Rooted the phone with N910T3UVU1DOK2 Stock Rooted Odex / DeOdex for N910T3. I chose Odex. I used the phone for several months like this.
Then I had a problem with T-Mobile blocking my phone (bought on ebay). I contacted the seller asking him WTF and they sell so many phones that he couldnt find my information so he sent me to an EMEI place that he paid for. The EMEI website says its supposed to take about 10-15 minutes. But SEVERAL hours later and 3 different stock ROM installs later, they finally got my EMEI changed. So now I am on N910T3UVUIDOG1. Then the EMEI guy rooted it with CF root or something...
Doesnt matter which of the stock roms I have used, I have the wifi problem. Like I said, I dont think its my antanna because when I am connected, I have a really good connection, well, I think its good. Its the same as I get with a cat5 cable on my pc. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/2032861983
Anyway, Help me? or Flame me? lol
Have a great day people.

Well there are no WiFi issues with the Note 4 at all.
However there are several things to comment on with what you wrote.
For one the first and most obvious is the fact that you bought it on eBay. Was it used? Doesn't really matter because crooked eBay sellers often sell things as NEW even when they are not.
So who knows the history of the phone, that leaves a huge variable in the mix.
Judging by the fact that the IMEI was blacklisted its either stolen or in the best case scenario it was a phone bought with EIP, sold, and then not paid on.
Again questionable history.
So I'm guessing its a damaged or defective phone. Unfortunately because the first IMEI has beek black listed and the 2nd one is not for that phone you cannot use anything like PHP insurance. You might (big might) be able to get a warranty support through Samsung but I'm guessing you would have to change the IMEI back as they are not going to honor any device with a different IMEI. That's also a huge might because you also need proof of purchase etc.
Big lessons learned here. For one this is the risk now a days from buying on eBay or Craigslist type places.
Also these issues definitely do not represent the device etc. So far the Note 4 has been one of the best Sammy devices ever.
I would find out why its black listed. If you bought it less then 3 - 6 months you might be able to file a claim with your bank as its possibly fraud type situation (stolen phone).
I truly hope there is a happy ending for you some how.
Good luck!
I have bought 2 note 4s and they act exactly like you describe. Cannot stay connected to my Google fiber. My nexus 5 always stayed connected with no issues. My wife's moto x? Acts just like the note 4s losing connection all the time.

Strange. My wife also has one too and we both have no problems on 300 Mbit cable.
Also we have at least 2 or 3 exchanges over the past 2 years so that is a total of 5 Note 4(s) with no Wifi issues.
Perhaps both of your issues are unrelated but have similar symptoms.
Just a thought but to those having problems do you have Smart Network Switch enabled in WiFi settings? I was trying to connect my Chromecast a few days ago and my wifi kept cutting out. It would happen everytime I tried to "set up" the Chromecast on my TV. Once I turned the Smart Network Switch off I had no problems.

I've never actually turned it on. Have used the note on 4.4.4 (stock and firekat), 5.0.1 briefly, 5.1.1 (stock and poprocks), cm12.1, and now 6.0.1. Always rooted, sometimes with xposed.
Wife's moto x has always been stock and still the same issues.

I've never actually turned it on. Have used the note on 4.4.4 (stock and firekat), 5.0.1 briefly, 5.1.1 (stock and poprocks), cm12.1, and now 6.0.1. Always rooted, sometimes with xposed.
Wife's moto x has always been stock and still the same issues.

Well in your case if this is happening with devices of different brands perhaps its some issue or settings with your access point / router.
