I own a MOTO E dual SIM phone. I had connectivity issues on my first SIM . So i gave it to the MOTO authorized service centre in my city (Chennai,Tamil Nadu,India). They replaced the SIM tray with new one and it works fine . But they did master reset of my phone so that all my data were lost including saved WiFi connections. Now the problem is when i'm trying to connect to any WiFi network like in my office , home , friend's place, railway stations, shopping malls, tethering WiFi hotspots it actually scans WiFi networks and shows them. When i try to connect by entering Password it says 'Saved,Secured with WPA' below the WiFi connection's name. For the same network when i tried connecting my another android device(say Sony tablet , ASUS Fonepad , etc) it is getting connected. I tried troubleshooting tips from MOTO forum as well as other third party websites/forums , but nothing worked out well for me . I hope this forum will help me to fix this issue . I'm really frustrated as it costs more for 3G connection from my service provider . please help !
I'm from Chennai as well. Motorola user for the past 8 years. Those guys always reset your device. But I'll suggest you to reset your phone before giving to them because it's our data inside.
And try forgetting and connecting to these networks again. Also uncheck "Avoid Poor Connections" in Advanced settings

Hi all.
A per my post in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117077
Code:
Hi all. I also have weak signal problem as well as fon router issue. The signal strength isn't as bad as being mentioned above, but still could be better.
But with my fon I can connect and connection is as showing connected, but I can't browse or have any connection to Internet whatsoever. When connecting to fon both lights on the router start flickering like normal and once connected when browsing or going to market for apps just one light blinks, when both should under normal activity.
Also I get this error message " a network error has occurred. retry or cancel and return to previous screen." when I try going to market.
I've tried setting security to none and wpa and still same no net.:confused:
Now some personal thoughts with experience with Linux and wifi. I think the problem is with driver or the firmware of wifi card on GS2. I had netgear card even thought it was claimed to work with Linux it kept on overheating and dropping connections with weak signal and every time I had to patch it to make it work properly, Many have reported same issues with other devices with Linux when it was claimed that devices should be working but were not.
My question is there anything I can do other than I haven't so far to check the problem why am not getting Internet through my fon router? Or any other checks I can do other than wifi tools I downloaded?
Thanks

Thats the router not the phone .
Set router to no security or passwords .
DELETE ROUTER WIFI FROM PHONE REBOOT AND RESET UP WIFI .

Hi, I've tried that still the same problem.
And it's not the router since every other device connects to it and many laptops and computers, without any problem.
Like I said I've tried it with wpa wep and no security just open, and still no Internet, even though it's showing as connected with signal bars at the top of the phone.
I've tried the phone with friends routers and it works on those. But not with mine which is Fonera.
Does anyone know what chip is used for wifi in these phones?
In case anyone else is wondering it's Samsung's own brand.
manufacturer=Samsung Electronics

Hello everyone,
I'm new android user! I'm delighted whit it on x10 mini pro. But I came across a few problems:
My first problem is with WiFi. I don't have wifi router, but I made my laptop to work as a virtual router for wifi, so other computers and mobile phones are free to join my network via WiFi.
However my X10mini is having hard time detecting my wifi network, and when it does it won't connect on it! It doesn't have that problem on real routers for wifi. (My second phone, Samsung jet, can connect to my wifi network without poblem). I have tried with "WiFi Finder" but the problem is same.
I should probably mention that bluetooth has the same problem. I can detect another phone but I can't make any transfer of data between the phones!
What should I do?
P.S. I bought the phone a few days ago and the android software version is 2.1
for the problem with bluethooth try to see in the option, there is one abuot visibility, check it
... sorry for english im italian XD

Hi androidx10
Your WiFi problem could depend on the wifi network, stock firmware cannot connect to "ad hoc" networks.
Try to install apps like "wifi buddy" from the market, it can help you to scan networks and identify ad-hoc links.
For the bluetooth usually there are no problems sending files but receiveng them.
Try to install from the market apps like "bluetooth file transfer" or "astro bluetooth" to exchange files with other devices.
Good luck and enjoy your X10
hello i just bought a sony ericsson xperia x10 mini pro (u20i firmware version: 2.1-update 1) last week and I can't use it because everytime I insert my sim and then surfing the internet it gives me extra charge even if I am connected to a wireless network. and when I check the remaining balance it's 0.00 data traffic is turned off. What should I do? I want to know what are the applications that gives me extra charge. Do I have to root my phone first to delete those applications? Please help me I dont know what to do.
I am away form home now and facing some frustrating issues with my new S3.
1. I cant connect to any WIFI network though the WIFI connection has very good signal strength. I always get the msg 'Network disabled. Poor Connection'. There is nothing wrong with the WIFI as i can connect it with my laptop and my buddy could connect to it using his IPhone.
2. My roaming time is completely wrong. It does not follow the time of the country I am in. It is showing the same time as my home country network. Shouldnt it automatically detect the network and shows the correct time like Iphone?

1. Restart the router & try just using 2.4Ghz in settings > wifi > advanced
2. Ensure: menu > settings > date & time > check [auto date & time] and [auto time zone]

2.I have already check both auto date & time and auto time zone earlier. But the problem still persists.
Please help
Beginnin to regret my decision to get a S3. So complicating!
If you happen to have a case on, remove it and try again.

Turn off wifi, reboot, and turn on?

Hi, this is my first post, as I created my account specially with the purpose to answer you.
After being faced with the problem all day and reading all possible materials on the topic in google and here, my dad walked in and asked me why he is not able to connect to our home wireless connection.
This was when I retrieved my hope that the problem is not in the phone. And it was not! My iPhone, my laptop were able to obtain a internet connection in contrast to my other laptop and my S3! I restarted the rooter and everything was ok! Everbody got their internet dose !
So, most probably it isn't you!
Also have wifi problem, except it tells me it's an authentication error. I cannot connect to the WiFi unless I stand right next to it. Can't connect to WiFi anywhere (if you think it's the router in my house), even though the device detects the router. Sent it back to Samsung.

Hey, I experienced the same problem. But in my case, I am able to connect to the AP, if I am using a static IP address in the SGS3 instead of DHCP. Same router, no settings changed there. Just configured a static IP.
Cheers,
Jaegermeister
Same problem
Tried everything still not working, took it back to samsung they said it's working fine any other device is connecting without a problem but the S3 wont (i have 15 S3 with this problem)
Thanks
Bring back the phones to Samsung!

I'm also frequently getting the "Network disabled. Poor Connection" message when at home. I have 2 wifi routers:
- Buffalo WHR G54S
- Draytek 2920n
If I turn wifi off/on on the S3 it sometimes resolves the issue, but not always. Sometimes after turning off/on it shows a status of "Connected"but there is no internet connectivity. If I then switch to the other router I can sometimes (but not always) connect successfully.
I'm running Checkrom v5.5, and have tried both the Perseus and Siyah kernels - both have this problem.
OK so I have T mobile version Galaxy S 3 phone is rooted (stock ROM)
WiFi was working properly except that sometimes when I had few devices connected to my router it didn't want to connect , but I have always experienced that problem with android on my HTC Evo and My touch 4g, it seems that when you connect to a router and disconnect and another device connects the phone tries to connect using the old IP which is now used by the other device.
its annoying but biggest problem now with the S 3 is that 2 days ago the phone will connect to the router at least it shows the WiFi icon on the status bar and on the wireless and network info ( connected ) but once I try to open a web page or app like Facebook it will show no connection, Kies air doesn't even recognize that there is a WiFi connection.
I have tried looking around on this forum and on google and have seen other people with same problem but no solution at all.
any ideas anyone?
I have tried forgetting the connection, restarting phone router, modem.
and other devices including my old phones work.
If your getting the same problem with different phones then the problem must be with your router. It seem that it only allows a certain number of devices to connect to it.
No, other devices and phones are working properly, problem is only on the SG3 100% sure not router problem at all , I am thinking something about the WiFi info on the phone got corrupted or something I guess I will try factory reset and wipe everything.
Well for future references, I had to do a full wipe ( data, dalvik, cache) and its working now as intended.
anyone experiencing this problem with galaxy s3 wifi connection after I reset my device it started working again but now after a few days the issue is back, have Wifi ICon on status bar but no connection to the internet at all, this is only happening with the S3 , evo 4g , mytouch 4g, laptop and desktop work without any problems.
Ok finally found the solution without the need of resetting the device. had to use static ip on my phone...
long click network connection , modify network config, show advance options, "ip settings = static" assign an ip and if u need help finding other info as gateway, dns servers etc..
on windows run "cmd" and ipconfig /all
I just got UMI EMAX , its realy good phone but i cant got data connections , wifi works good , but no data connetions ?

My data connections are working fine (on both SIMs). I just put the SIMs in the slots and the data connections worked fine (without any configuration).
Hi
