I swear i did search!
Thats why i had to create an account and ask!
I use my provider data package and i dont have any problem with the galaxy s3!
But when im home i connect to WIFI and while im connected to wifi i dont get notification from Gmail,Viber,Facebook and so on..but for example whatsapp works fine!
And i have to say it wasnt like this!i dont know if Firmware update caused this or an App!
If i want to know what is happening i should disconnect then all the notifications start to pop up!
Anybody knows what is the problem with Wireless internet connection?
Thanks in advance,

try changing your DNS to any universal one(search google for universal DSN servers) or use 4.2.2.2
I had the same problem on my iPhone and that fixed it.. never tried on S3 though.

you can either use SET DNS form Play Store. or change it on your router by going to the configuration window.

thanks y'all...
I'm going to start here with this question before expanding it to the whole xda-developers Q&A area, since this is something I am trying to do specifically with my Note.
Is there a way to force an app to use mobile data connection (MDC) instead of wifi?
Specifically, I am trying to figure out if I can force Activesync and/or the Gmail app to use the MDC instead of the wifi connection when I am already connected on wifi, especially if there is a way to have either of those apps detect that it can't communicate with the servers through wifi, and auto change to using the MDC.
Reason for this??? I need to receive emails through Activesync and Gmail at all times, due to being on-call for work. The wifi connection screws up sometimes, but the phone stays connected to the wifi thinking it can still access everything ok. (yes, it is a problem with the router, not the phone, and that is being investigated separately)
Yes...I know I could just turn off my wifi connection on the phone, but I prefer to leave it on if possible, and just use the MDC for those two apps. Is that even possible to use the MDC while still connected to wifi, or is there a requirement that wifi be turned off to use MDC, no matter what???
Also, what is the proper name for the MDC? That might help me search for a solution. MDC was the best I could come up with for it, but maybe there is an "official" name for this connection?
I have the Tasker app installed, and have been thinking about trying a way to make Tasker cycle the wifi connection for me, but as I said, I would prefer to just leave the wifi turned on, and just force those two apps out the MDC.
Any help, or maybe just point me to some more info? I have search for about a week now, and am finding plenty of people asking how to restrict an app to use wifi, but not the other way around.
Thanks!

Additional info:
Think of it this way...the wifi issue may be firewall related. So, the firewall stops my phone data from going to the internet through wifi. I need to still get my emails though. I would like to stay connected to my wifi, so that I could tell that I am having problem as soon as I try to surf the web, but my emails would still be coming through because they are using the mobile data connection instead.
I've never seen a mobile data connection stay active while wifi was turned on and connected.
Your best bet is to either fix whatever is wrong with your wifi connection, or bite the bullet and leave wifi off, until you can fix your wifi connection.
i agree, dont think its possible to use data connection,without turning off wifi first(impossible to have 2 data types simultaneously)

I dont think its impossible, as I believe txts come over data, not sure on this though. Is it possible to get what you want, yes most likely. Is it going to be easy, probably not. Address the real problem rather then applying an over complicated bandaid.
If your staying connected, but losing data at home then it is likely your modem is the culprit (assuming you use a modem connected to a wireless router, not a all in one device). If it belongs to the cable/phone company then contact them. If you bought your modem, find out what is compatable and buy a new one and see if this fixes it. I had the exact same problem with Time Warner the dumb asses tried telling me it was my wireless router problem despite still being about to be 100% up and running on internal (streaming music and movies from plex server while on phone and even able to RDP internally). Eventually they agreed to send a tech out and he laughed at them and gave me an upgraded modem and we were good to go.
Thanks for the support, but as I said, the wifi issue is being addresses separately. It may not be a quick & easy fix, because additional "testing" is being done on the network (firewall) that may be the real cause of the issue. It is being looked into though.
So...for everyone trying to get me to just "fix" the wifi first, sorry, but it isn't going to happen right now. I would just like to find a way to do what I requested in the original message.

Does that help clarify my need of this some?
I agree that it seems only one connection can be active at a time. On my windows mobile phone it defaulted to the data connection, android seems to default to wifi (i would bet this is a requirement from the carriers).
As for texts, they are delivered through spare bits on the cellular carrier channel that were left as spares very early on. Not via data channels. Which is why forcing us to pay to send texts is such robbery - we are literally using otherwise spare bandwidth.
How to bypass MDC?
I have a similar need as MonkeyThumper. My situation is that I have a camera application which allows me to view my camera's at home. It uses port 2000 of which our corporate firewall blocks. I have to turn off wi-fi so that I can use mobile in order to connect. Wondering if there is some routing protocol that I can tell my phone to use MDC instead of wi-fi specifically for that application. It's a nuissance to have to turn off wi-fi, check the camera's, then turn it back on regularly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Apps = Not Likely. HOWEVER.... and I can't say for sure - mainly because I have no idea if the radios shut down based upon connection (example 3G turns off when on wifi) - but you can modify the routes in the route table and (again in theory) force data down one pathway or the other.
For example - using a terminal on the phone try this: Connect Wifi - then in the terminal type: ip route show
Output will be something like
default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlan0
....
192.168.1.1 dev wlan0 scope link
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you disconnect Wifi and repeat (ip route show) the output will look like this:
default via 10.77.xx.xx dev rmnet_sdio0
...
10.77.xx.xx dev rmnet_sdio0 scope link
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So, you should be able to manipulate the route table with something like:
su
ip route add 88.77.66.55/32 via 10.77.xx dev rmnet_sdio0 (where 88.77.66.55 is your home IP address or the IP you want to get to).
The problem with this is... it's not persistent. So you'll be best off doing this from a script or something once you verify it works.
There might be another way too... I'm sure there's a route file somewhere that can be configured.

Need GMAIL on Mobile Data, others on WiFi
hi, my case is simple:
At work, we have WiFi.
But, GMAIL is blocked.
So, i want all my other apps to use the office WiFi, but gmail to go over my mobile data.
I would imagine this scenario is getting more and more common.
Does anyone have any ideas here, apart from having to turn wifi off everytime i want to check my gmail?
any help much appreciated,
thanks James.

I've started having the same issue since the morning today. I've reconfigured my entire wireless network, but to no avail. The WiFi is working fine on the laptop, but when I set it up on the phone, it says "Sign in to Wifi Network" inthe notification tray and then doesn't open a login page. Only Google Apps are having issues connecting to the internet, otehr apps like facebook, 9gag and stuff are working just fine.
It isn't working on any of the mobile devices I have. Incidentally, they are all android. S3, XperiaP and Nexus7. I'm guessing this could be because of the blockage of youtube in Pakistan. since google sometimes uses those servers to authentication requests. Does anyone have any other explanations?

Has anyone been able to get to the solution of the "sign in to wifi network problem? Paranoid android 3.99.1 RC1
i have had the same problem since yesterday
i tried re-setting my mobile WiFi router many times
deleted the network and add it again but didn't work
finally i got it , i removed the SIM card and insulted it into my mobile
and turned the 3G on but it was not working so i got another SIM card
and but it in my router and its working now
so the problem was with the SIM not the router
i hope this helps you......

Insulting only works with people. Physical violence works with some electronics.
I've been seeing the same issue, with a large wireless network with multiple routers; some routers are configured in a weird way (seems to be DNS-related, but I'm not sure), and will make Android think it needs to sign in.

Almost everyone is facing this problem. This is due to PTA's ****ty filters for blocking youtube which they cannot manage properly.
It will come to normal eventually, when they figure out how to resolve this issue. it may take some time. Hope soon.

I have the same issue since yerstaday morning. Gives notification sign into wifi network when i click that it open webpage which is block here. According to my research that IP address is of Google and gives location of US due to which play store can be run with hotspot shield because it changes your IP and connect you to US. But I reset app prefernces and delete cache of play store then reboot my Tablet it works fine no notification error but again today in the morning same error comes. Don't know what to do to resolve it .

yeah...that works.
Fixed
I guess I sort it out ..
I am using PTCL Broadband .. All you have to do is to pick up a toothpick or needle, you can find a small hole on the back of your ptcl router ..
Put that needle in it, there is a default setting reset button in that hole .. press the needle for 4-5 seconds until the router restart ..
Wait for the router to restart properly.
Go to 192.168.1.1
Click on easy installation.
Type the username given by ptcl .. You can call ptcl customer support and get your username or you can find it on the box of the router.
Type Password: ptcl
Click on save ... You are DONE

Is it possible to disable checking for working internet connection in android?
Hey all. I have this weird wifi problem with my Xperia P running JB. \
When i connect to my home wifi "linksys" It refuses to upload
. It does not load Facebook app.
Or any market.
Or whatsapp or viber contact sync.
Or kik or im+
or any messenger send.
So typically. It's "up" data problem.
But the weird part is when my brother connects to our home wifi
. Everything works like a charm.
IT's not my phone error though. BECAUSE when i connect to friend's wifi.
Everything works like a charm too.
so it's about the router and my Android? But IT USED TO WORK before 4 months. I TRIED cyanogenmod 10 and 10.1 AND ICS.
but nothing works. Plus all vpns aren't connecting. Anyone please got a solution to this?
How do you make it is "up" problem?
Every "down" operation has some "up", even oppening the connection.
Could be some incompatibility between the router and the phone software.
Try different security methods or non at all.

But i tried all security methods and none for the router.
I tried other phone softwares.
Google chrome gives me errors 408 and 324.
That server closed the connection without sending any data.
I think it might be a restriction on my network or something? :/

Shouldn't be any restriction on your network unless you have applied any.
