have you checked in the settings?

I've solved using dns from Google.
You have to set It in tour router if You use dhcp or in
Your Phone if You have fixed ip.
Dns are : 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Bye J.

google DNS solves the problem for me too =)) 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 :good:

Hi I have never experienced this problem with In Paris v5. Those problems are usually router related. I would suggest the following:
1. Switch off router. Leave it off for a few mins and turn it back on again and try connecting from your tab.
2. If that doesn't work. Switch off router. On your tab go to settings->wireless and networks->wifi settings. Tap on your wifi connection's name and choose forget. Switch on router and scan for networks on your tab and try reconnecting to it.
3. If that fails too, download Wifi Fixer from market for free and see if that helps. Its an equivalent to Wifi settings on Android just like 'fix permissions' for the android system and app permissions
i have done that and my laptop and everything else can connect to the internet apart from the samsung tablet- do i need to flash anything as part of the custom rom install - to confirm all i did was wipe all data and a clean install of paris.v5 -

by "wipe all data", I assume you wiped cache and dalvik cache as well?
in that case, i suggest you try the third step I posted above which is to download Wifi Fixer from the market and it should help.
Try switching to a different channel on your router.

Delete the dhcplist file from your tab via root explorer or another file manager. Dejete the file then reboot the tab. If you google it you'll find where the file is located im at work and I don't remember lol good luck

Since you wiped data, you're not just forgetting a password for the wifi are you?
Thanks for the suggestions - i tried all the above and what and what made it work was the me deleting the dhcplist file - i rebooted my tab and after putting my password in it connected to the internet - so thanks again for all your help.!!

[Q] Unable to save proxy settings

I am currently running the O2 ICS ROM on my GSII (rooted): Courtesy of Faryaab's fine thread.
Base: I9100XXLPR
Build: XWLP3
Kernel: XWLP3
I need to use a proxy to access https:// sites. I can input the info by 'long-pressing' the wifi name > Modify Network > Show advanced options > . At this point I input the Proxy address and port then click save, but it doesn't! When I go back in the Proxy settings are reset back to 'None'.
Anyone have a solution to this - is it a bug? I will be updating to the new UK ROM when I get home which might help, otherwise I am scuppered!
You need to download an app.
I have ASProxy (paid) and it works fine for me to get outside my work's proxy server. I had tried a couple prior that didn't work for my situation.
There are others (both paid and free). Most of them require root, which you already have.
I may give something like that a go - but for the time being, I'm actually trying to use the proxy server that the service provider offers, the problem is I can't get my phone to save and use the settings. Every time I try it just seems to default back to no proxy.
Does ICS not support the use of proxy servers via the wireless settings? There is an option for it?
Edit: Having looked at ASProxy that seems to allow you to get around the fact that most Apps do not use the proxy settings you specify when you set up your wifi connection. Although I will need something like that, at the moment I can't even get the browser (default or Dolphin) to use the proxy I want as it won't 'stick' in the wifi settings.
Unable Wifi Proxy Address and Port
I am also facing the same issue on Coolpad Note 3 running Custom Lollipop 5.1.
When I enter the proxy details and click save and go back to check the advanced settings, they are gone.
Please guide me where I can fix this.
Thanks

[HELP] No Mobile Data

Background: One month ago I rooted and flashed a custom ROM for the first time, I had no problem.
After flashing a few different ROMs, I noticed that my mobile data was acting weird. I could browse the internet and access most internet required apps, but I couldn't download from the play store, watch youtube videos, or get messages from whatsapp messenger.
Problem Today: I just flashed a ROM that I like but now I have NO mobile data at all. I have full bars and my notification bar shows H+ or 3G but data just doesn't work. In the Browser I get this error: "authentication via the proxy server was unsuccessful".
I restored a nandroid backup of stock Touchwiz and data was working again. So I just did a re-flash of the custom ROM and data still doesn't work!
Notes:
- Notification shows data is connected but I can't access the internet.
- Did a restore to stock and data works, re-flashed a custom ROM and data doesn't work.
- Airplane mode isn't on.
- There is no mobile data limit.
- There is nothing in APN settings, there also wasn't anything in stock Touchwiz (but data worked).
- I flashed different modems and they don't work.
- I have tried some APN apps in the play store but they don't work.
- I am on UltimaROM v7.1 // Siyah kernel 1.8.5 // Android 4.1.2
- Wi-fi works.
Please help.
I ended up fixing the problem. So for those of you who might have a similar issue: the problem was with my APN settings. I just had to properly configure it and disable the proxy.

Check your ROM's forum or your kernel's.Maybe it is a common bug and you only have to wait until they fix it.

[Solved] Saferoot, googleplay

Hello there users of xda,
After I installed saferoot I've notice that my google play stopped working via wifi connection but works on my 4g connection. No connection to google play via wifi, also while connected via wifi I've tried to download apps via google play on the computer. A notification pops up on my phone telling me the download failed. On the other hand if I am connected via 4g, google play on the s4 works just fine. I am a noob here.
I don't have much data to run on as I have already used half of it on pandora while going to work and returning from work (2gb data plan).
phone: Galaxy S4
Model: SCH i545 (if you can't tell already it's verizon)
Android Version: 4.3
Build: mk2
Root: Yes=saferoot + safestrap​
Never mind, I've solved the problem. The problem occurred after I've uninstalled abp (adblockpro). When I installed adblockpro, my proxy setting was changed on my s4, all I had to do was change the proxy setting back to the default settings.

apps not connecting to internet on wifi but browsers do: help

I am micromax unite2 user and I have recently flashed miui7 ROM. It all went well except that now my apps(system &installed both) won't connect to internet on wifi but my browsers work fine. My phones date/time is set perfectly and I have wiped the cache partition as well in recovery. I have factory reset my phone. I have some doubt about the IP address shown in WiFi settings as it doesn't match with my router's configuration and changing it causes the browser's internet to stop as well. Please help!!
