Data drops are a great bullsh#t in this ics version... It's wide known. So it's probably not your network buddy.

Hi guys, in this days i have noticed a problem with my gsII.
Sometimes I have the gsII connected to my router but internet connection doesn't work.
I'll try to explain better what i mean... I start wifi on my gsII and use internet connection without problem. Then I set the phone in standby mode leaving wifi on. When after a while i want to use internet connection, it doesn't work. The telephone is still connected to my router but i can't use internet on the phone.
The only way to make internet connection work is to disable wifi e then reactivate it.
This is really frustrating....
I've got the telephone from three months but only now I'm noticing this problem because first I used to disable the wifi and activate it only when i need it.
Am I the only to have this problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks to everyone in advance... any help would be appreciated
A video is more than thousands of words, so this is an "example video" of the bug:

Test it with a different router, i.e. Cisco E4200.
It would a good idea but i have to buy a new router or go to some friend's house for 2-3 hours. I'll keep this idea in my mind thanks
I have this problem, mines a bt home hub v3. Don't think its the router I blame the phone. I have to restart phone to make it connect with ability to use internet

I do not know what " standby mode" is? I have the same phone and have no problems with wifi. The phone goes to sleep when I do not use it and awakes when I use it.
It seems that your phones wifi is sleeping and not waking up. I always turn it off when not using it anyway. Not the full answer but it works for me.

I don't use wifi very often, but I do notice this problem with 3G data. Modem problem? I'm using kh3.

I believe I know and had the problem you describe.
For me the Wifi would work perfectly at first and then after the phone had been left for a while I would try to use it and get 'no connection' type errors. Sometimes it would even stop working even if I just waited too long with the phone still on in my hand.
I found that if I either disabled router wifi security or set it to WEP the problem disappeared. The issue occurred on 2.3.3. My router is a DLink one fyi. I have yet to test 2.3.4 which came out yesterday in Sweden. Ill let u know.
What version android are u? Does relaxing ur wifi security fix it??

I really should have said that is a workaround not a fix. I can add also that I have contacted Samsung about it. They cannot confirm or deny thru issue but suggested that I take the phone to their service centre. Yay...

Ehm...For standby mode I mean that I lock the phone, I only shut down the display....understand what I mean?
If you turn wifi off when you don't use it, you'll never see this bug. Try to leave wifi on for some hours if you want to understand if also your gsII has this bug.

I'ms using kg1, i've also head about people that have this problem with 3g. Try to keep the wi-fi on for some hours (disabling 3g) to understand if you have the problem

I'm wondering if a full wipe would help . In this days I'm really hating this bug.
Ps: A really strange thing of this bug that i've noticed is that internet connection doesn't work but the program androidVNC perfectly works!! Instead if I try to open 192.168.0.1 (router address) with any browser (opera, dolphin, stock's browser) it doesn't work!!
Really really strange.....

I tried changing the channel also. I have heard others getting this to work. Didn't work for me. You can use Wifi Analyser app on phone to find a clear channel and see how u go changing your router perhaps?
I tried re flashing also using factory restore. No fix for me.
Also noticed that u can sometimes get phone to work by toggling Network Data on/off. Not really fun either.
The wifi channels and security settings I am talking about are settings in the router not the phone. What wifi security are you using in your router?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I am not a believer the router is at fault in any case. I would entertain an incompatibility but nothing more.
Original router and security settings work fine for...wait for it...an iphone 3gs and a Motorola Defy (yes the phone which seems to have issues with doing everything else!)
Either way an incompatibility is not acceptable either if that's what it is

I know this, and in fact i have to switch off and on wifi connection when this happens.
Now i'm trying to use channel 5 with the router ( but yesterday I've tested channel 6 and 13 without any result)
I hate this bug because beacause it happens only when he wants! I'm quite sure that assistance wouldn't solve the problem. A friend of mine has changed three gsII and said that every gsII that he has changed had this bug!
Ps: Another question.... How often do you have this bug?
Once a week? Once a day? Three times a day?

Is NOT the phone.
i have the same problem reported in the 1st post.
i have been turning wifi off and then on again for a quick fix until now but i think the solution might be to drop the security on the router from WPA to WEP. Haven't tried it yet tho, because it doesn't bother me that much.
I had an ipad previously (before i had the SGS2) and it had exactly the same behaviour. I looked up the problem then and found a FAQ from the ISP that mentioned a compatibility problem between ipad and that router, so their suggestion was to set the router to WEP only.

Easily more than 3 times a day but then I use the phone a lot.
Problem had never occurred when I used only 3G. That was my workaround when I got fed up with it before I dropped the wifi security.

For me it happens always after the phone comes back from stand by with wifi on.
steps to reproduce:
1-turn wifi on, and check it's connected and working
2-press power button to turn off screen
3-turn phone back on, try to access a new web page, it doesn't work
I noticed that while it's in stand by i will still receive email notifications so it probably only looses the connection when i turn it on again.
Also, if there was some program working (say, a download) when i went into standby it will probably still be transferring when it comes out of stand by, it's just the new connections that fail.
heyy guys..
im using cm7 beta 6.5.3.
i cant browse the internet on my phone on data connection.i can use whatsapp though.

Soo ive been having this really annoying problem with my wifi connection on my X10
Soo if im connected to my wifi, it runs good, but when i stop using it and i leave my phone connected to the wifi for a while and try to come back and do something on it, my wifi doesnt work
and the weird thing is that it still shows that im connected to it, beside the signal bars, but i just have no connection to the internet for some reason
There should be a pic showing u what i mean
And i even contacted my internet provider (Rogers) and they said that its nothing from their side, its the device itself?
Please help, if u can

Go to advanced settings of wifi and check the sleep policy there.
the problem could be in the wifi modules, i had to reinstall them in order to get wifi working,and as the member above says, try changing the wifi sleep policy to never, once i've done that i havent had any problems since
First icon on status bar,what is that?

Hello
friends as the title says
everything working fine on wifi other then s voice and dropbox app on my s3 kindly help me how i can fix this problem
just bought s3 today
kindly help me
its working on mobile data but not on wifi plz help
Have you tried different wi-fi networks?
This sounds like your wifi network -or at least it's internet connection- is restrictively filtered through a firewall.
Are you by any chance in a corporate, university or otherwise managed/shared network?
no i am using my house wifi
everything works fine like facebook ap gmail browsing etc all
but drop box and s voice only working on mobile data
no there is no filter
i have tried it on other wifi as well
same here.Doesnt work on wifi.

seems like its a bug have to claim warranty
so anyone can help?
I had the opposite problem. Non http apps would only work on wifi and not hspa. I just changed my apn settings and it fixed it. So I can only imagine it's a network issue, not letting certain ports through maybe.

Hi
I got a problem with the facebook messenger. I am on latest cm9 nightly and siyah 4.1rc1.
The messenger has an extremely bad connection over mobile network, but works good on wifi. Now the joke is: Nothing else has any problems with my mobile network. Only messenger behaves like a douche. I do not understand why it works on wifi, but not mobile network.... although mobile network itelf seems totally ok!
It seems as if the messenger doesn't "trigger" the mobile connection. In the notification bar I see the 3g icon going to H, but then no stable connection gets established (arrows for up- and downstream do weird things) and it switches back to 3g - thats it.
I don't know what to do, I switched RIL and modems, but nothing helped! So any tips are very welcome :good:
Sounds like it's the app itself. Try submitting a bug report to the app creator.

Facebook might be popular but their apps are very terrible when it comes to connection. Sometimes, while using facebook messenger, you will think your connection is bad until you open your browser and everything just works as normal.
it's the app's problem
