Wifi problem - AT&T LG Optimus G

A friend has this phone , for some reason she had a large amount of data in just a week reached her limit , she doesnt use anything but face book , one of the problems is it wont connect on her router at home , and wifi hotspots wont work either , nothing custom on this phone , stock and I dont know what updates she has , can anyone tell me anything , I dont have access to the phone but might be able to talk her through or when I see again to get it right !

Go to the data tracker in settings. See what used all the data and uninstall it.

Hello,
What kind of protection you use on the router?
Try WPA-2 password on router settings, reboot the router and try again.
I hope this helps.

Hey there,
I'm new to this forum, and to this phone for that matter, but I think/guess your problem is not actually related to the actual android Market application but to your actual network connection (internet connection).
You must have an Internet connection set up on your phone, that means either Wireless Network, either Mobile Network (from your network operator).
First, check that you have a proper Internet connection set up (you can try with Browser app to connect to Google.com or something), and than try again the android Market.
Oh, and I also think that you must have a Google account in order to access the Market application.
Hope this helps
Two things you should check , first that you have good internet connection try opening the internet explorer , second you should have a google account this can be set by the wizard first time you run the google market

my internet connection is smooth.... i tried login into google usin the browser and it comes....but only the android market , gtalk nd gmail apps don work....
Are you not able to open, log in and sync ur Gmail application in the phone?
If you are not able to do it , then just do a factory reset.

[Q]Question about tethering

Hi All,
It's been awhile that I not using an android device ( the last one was milestone then I switch to iPhone, a stupid decision ).
In the past, i used to tether using some third party apps like pda-net to share the 3G network to my laptop for internet access. While I notice the latest android have this function built-in, which I successfully did it as well, I am unable to use my phone to receive any data while tether. All apps I tried to open that require data access will tell me no 3G data detected ( like Whatsapp / Doplin HD / some forums tools.. etc etc ).
My question is , is it normal for the stock rom ( I didnt root it ), or it is just my device having some problem? Thanks for reading and hope I can get an answer to solve this annoying problem.

Thanks so much for the quick reply!
I have tested the same scenario with my friend's Nexus One but do not have this problem occurred, so I bet this might be some other possibilities. But still, thanks so much for the help

This is happening to me too; nice to know I'm not the only one although it seems to be a rare problem.
OTA update which seemed to run without a hitch, stock recovery, coming from rooted but otherwise stock honeycomb. I have voodoo OTA root keeper, which did it's job.
I'm fairly conservative with the tab, I've not changed any of the default settings since the OTA, I let all my apps redownload after the update and their data was still there; I have TiBU but didn't need to use it, definitely haven't restored any system data or aps.
My tab sees the sim card, I can send texts and get replies, it knows what network it's on, I get occasional notifications but can't actually connect to anything (have tried search, the browser, FB app, gmail app, news app, all time out).
The simm card works fine in my phone, the simm card from my phone which gives me mobile data on my phone doesn't on the tab.
Settings says there's no ip address available - I never checked before the update, don't know if this is normal.
I've not bothered much with customising the tab since I mostly use it for work, can anyone suggest where I might start trying to fix this?
eta:
I checked a number of threads about mobile data and honeycomb - to get to mobile network settings you go
settings > more > mobile network
I wasn't in flight mode, packet data was selected, network mode was on auto.
The fix turned out to be changing the apn - there are 6 offered, I worked my way down the list (I could have phoned and asked, but that usually means being on hold for 30 minutes first), most of them had no network at all, the default one had a network connection but no mobile data, one works properly
(my tab is on Optus, the correct apn turned out to be optus preconnect)

Samsung pocket GALAXY wifi issue

Hello everyone,
I am running android 2.3.6 on my pocket galaxy.
Whenever i keep my wifi on for sometime and keep my mobile aside ,i doesn't connect to internet as soon as I again pick it up. Though it shows that it is connected but i have to switch wifi of my mobile off and them turn it on again. There is probably no issue with my internet connection or router because my tablet and laptop doesn't show similar problem that use the very same wifi signals for accessing internet.
Secondly,lets say i went out of home along with my mobile into an area where i don't get the wifi signals of my router and then came back,while wifi was on, mobile would not connect itself even after ten to fifteen minutes. I don't know whether there is any particular time interval for every mobile to scan for wifi but i guess it must be not more than two to three mins once you don't have signals.
Please tell me ,is it a hardware issue or software issue and how to fix it. Would be grateful .
Regards
