Wifi problem Star N9330 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I have a problem with my phone. Sometimes wifi connection worksperfectly, but sometimes it doesn't even turn on! It shows me the wifi icon all grey or blue without the "down arrow" that shows if your phone is sending data. I don't know what is the cause of this problem because sometimes works sometimes not. I tried to reeboot and it works but after a while the problem represents.
I give you a screenshot of my model

I'm using the latest 2013-03 rom and I'm also experiencing crashes in wifi module. Tried wifi fixer with no success.

having quite a serious issue with the vibrant wifi

I have this issue with wifi. It's that when I'm at home, it won't connect at all to my wifi all I get is obtaining address and eventually unsuccesful, yet occasionally it does work. Then, when using other wifis, turning on wifi does make it connect and show the icon in the notification bar, but still, it won't always work. I try to get into the market but it says no network or something like that. Tried most web browsers, nothing works too. What can I do? My phone is rooted and flashed with bionix fusion rom, evn though this problem sometimes happened even with stock firmware, rooted and not rooted. What can I do? Can't really get a replacement because i bought it from overseas. HELP!!

Some routers are a tad dodgy, so it may not be the phone at all. Since we dont know what type of router or what sort of connection environment your in (how many wifi connections it's handling, etc...) it's hard to say. Still it's easier to replace a $30 router than it is a several hundred $$$ phone.
I said in the post itself that I tried more than one wifi aka router, most of them connected to a laptop and my phone at a certain time. Therefore I doubt the issue is the router. I think it's a bug. Is there no fix for this?
This is kind of a shot in the dark, but have you tried putting the phone in Airplane mode and then restarting the Wi-Fi? I've found that the cell data connection can sometimes interfere with my Wi-Fi.

I would put my money on the router, I have not seen anyone else complain about this who is running bionix. So a bug within bionix, I'm going to say no.
HOWEVER!!!!!! I had the same problem for a while. I have AT&T uverse and there 2WIRE router is total crap... I had the same exact problems as you PLUS it would not connect to my mac mini for more then a few seconds. I hooked up an older router I had laying around and BAM no more issues.
I got the same problem, but my phone is not rooted or flashed. Must be a system/software problem.

No really people, It's the routers you are using... not the phone...

Wifi isn't working! (ICS)

Ok im running " ICS Euphoria RC2.1 " And recently my wifi has not been working. I've just moved houses so i got a new connection, my wifi on the phone can connect to the wifi and find it but after it does connect the wifi icon above the notification bar, is grey (it should be blue). I'm not sure if its my phone or my router settings, tho it should be the same as before.
Anyone know what to do?

Grey just means it's not connected to Google. Can you get on the internet / what happens?
No nothing loads , facebook, the google store nothing opens when i connect to the wifi but when its blue everything works

If you use the web browser do you get any specific error message besides that it failed to load?
Nope nothing even loads , just a white screen , stuck on loading :/

Try on another wireless device, see if it's the router.

Well i have 3 computers connected to the router , and they all work fine just not my phone :/. Ill just re-flash or a flash a new rom
To be honest, euphoria is auto dated, try their new chimera. It should solve a lot of your issues with euphoria.

Xperia U: very weird wifi problem

My girlfriends XU is acting up ultimately weird..
Since some time we have this problem:
Wi-Fi only works for about 3 minutes when connecting to a wifi signal, yet the wifi signal icon indicates as if it has a good connection. The only way to regain connection again is to reboot, but then the same problem repeats itself, after a few minutes wi-fi is not working anymore. Also in the wifi-indicator the "send" arrow works, the "receive" arrow doesn't.
Basically if you want to discover a new wi-fi connection you need to reboot the phone also, because otherwise the previous connected wi-fi signal remains (it freezes as stated before after about 3 minutes).
Tried a factory reset already.. Didn't work. The phone runs the stock sony android 4.0.4.
Any idea's ?

Does it happen with all routers or only with your router?
Have you tried to repair using SUS?
Someone one the official forum had a similar problem and it was fixed by repairing the phone using SUS.

Hmm.. authentication error occurs when the wifi password is wrong on your phone. If somebody changed the password on the modem also this can happen, and I don't know about avg but does it have 3g data management? And are you saying that Mobile Data is not working?
And FYI try a factory reset of your phone, it would most likely fix your problem.

Your router could not be working as it should. If what was suggested above doesnt work, reset both modem and router.

Did you try a factory reset of your phone? So your red arrow ain't working huh? It means that you are not receiving any data.. Could be a slight error or something wrong with the receiver? Can you make proper calls?

i had the same problem . i just changed my wifi channel from 6 to 8 just do the same put your channel 5 or 7 or 8 and evrything will be fine if you dont know how to accesse your router just tell me my wifi connecting all the time without any error good luck
The solution that worked for me was to change the security settings on my router, from just WPA2 to WPA2/WPA. I had tried changing channels and frequencies, as well as my device name.

Try to flash a new modem (I suggest you DL8).
Note that you have first to root the device before flash it with Odin.
