Good evening everyone. I have a problem with a thl w200s Android 4.2.2, root. I took it for about a year, and some days I do not see more than the Wi-Fi networks at home. I thought I had broken the wi-fi module and tried to leave it on outside the home (usually it I turned off to conserve battery life) and I saw that snaps normally networks located around. Unfortunately I could not try a real connection because they were all secure connections and I have no network keys. Instead home connections not just see me. I have a PC, a tablet and a jiayu G4S who connect perfectly. Does anyone have an idea of what can be done to fix this problem? Thank you all.
This is the version of firmware installed
THL W200S.156D.A1.JB9.HD.EN.8P256.OV8825.MT6592GW.20140618
No one who can give help? An 'idea? I tried everything from the data factory reset to flash the rom stock needrom but nothing.
Today I did further tests; I held the wi-fi on while I was walking to the center (I looked like a poor brain-injured, I know, but it had to be done XD) and I found kind 30-40 networks. I tried to connect with the only 2-3 open I found (the others were protected by WPA-WPA2 like mine) and before me saved network, tap on and connect to current connection, then after a few seconds off the network scope (I have not hastened moved 1 centrimeto!).
If someone has an idea of what else I could try would make a great favor.

I've had my prime for about a month and a half
I've started to notice an issue with the wifi.
I've tried reading up on google for people with similar problems. But it has been hard to isolate my problem midst the myraid of wi-fi problems primarily those who have issues with the wifi strength being sub par.
The deal is ... Start of the day, walk onto campus, log on to the wifi. Now in order to use my university's wi fi I need to enter my ID details for it in order to connect. So normally I go into Dolphin and click google, and the web authentication page will come up. So I type in my details and the internet works fine, the grey bars turn to blue.
I've read a lot about the difference between grey bars and blue bars, like grey bars means it's connected to the internet but not synced to the google account. However for me, grey bars mean absolutely no internet.
Then further on in the day. I move to another part of campus, then suddenly I've got no internet. I'm guessing because I've disconnected from 1 particular region and attempted to connect in another. Or the transformer prime goes into some hibernatory state while it's unused on standby in my bag.
I can't even get to the authentication page. The signal is fine as shown on wi fi analyser, but it just doesn't transmit everything. I try restarting my tablet, forgetting the wi-fi location and reconnecting. Nothing works.
Still says the connection is fine, but no information is getting transferred.
The same thing happens at home with my wireless internet.
Where the internet bars stay perpetually grey. Now the solution to the problem, is to restart the router, then the internet is fine. However in university, this obvioiusly is not a solution. And I depend on the wi - fi for my university studies, so having no wi fi for the tablet pretty much renders it useless.
Just today, at home. The internet was working fine and I had to restarted the router. And now I've got the problem. If I were to reset the router, I think the problem will cease. Nothing wrong with the signal. It's connected, just no information being transmitted.
Now I'm hoping it's something on the tablet that I can change. If I really have to, I'd factory reset. I've read something about this issue on XDA, where the solution was something to do with static IPs. Now I'm not too tech savvy and have no experience in rooting or playing around with ROMS, so I didn't really understand.
If there is anyone out there has come across this probelm, I'd appreciate any help.
As well as whether factory reset has ever worked for anyone

In home iv always had blue bars, but in my university, they are grey too. I figured this was because of the proxy, but even after configuring the proxy settings in the tablet definitions, i only could get the broswer to worrk, because i think those definitions only work for the http port. In order to be able to connect with other apps, i needed to download an app called proxydroid, but you need root for this. I dont know if this is related to your problem but it may help. Good luck.
Yeah me too when i. Home or somewhere else their green but wen i log into my schools wifi i get gray bars and no internet so what i did os get an everclear portable router lol .. i think its the schools wifi
Blue = full two way communication with Google services
Grey = partial or no communication with Google services
I would suggest removing your account from your device and then adding your account again. We have been able to test that Google services should work on the secure network.

This is most bizzare. My internet on wifi was working fine until last night, but it is not working any longer. Works fine on 3G though. On wifi I am able to see connected devices on the local network and play files off my HTPC but internet browsing, google play store or anything that uses internet has stopped working and times out. All other wifi devices in my home are fine. I have reset the wifi router as well, nothing. Tried to disable and enable wifi on the phone and restarted a few times as well. Cant really put my finger on it.
Any ideas?
I updated to the SG .73 build about 3 days ago. I noticed batter battery life, no where near what I was used to on my GS2 though.
Anyhooo, any ideas guys, I am concerned.

That's unlikely to be your device. Probably the router or something.

I have also messed around with the wifi sleep policy. No issues there. Power saving is also disabled.
Could it be anything else? An app maybe? I will remove the most recent ones and report back. Badass battery monitor was the last one I installed.

Hi, along with that also try to connect to some other router and let us know if the problem persist.
The wifi connection remains active but no internet. Just thought I would add. I will connect to another wifi hotspot. My wife's GS2 tethering and report back.
I assume that you got "limited connectivity" problem.
If my assumption is true then you should try checking in your Wifi router setting, set encryption method to AES. The problem was addressed when I tried doing this and in addition, changed my Wifi channel from auto to a specific channel.
Right, not sure how this all started but like many others my internet connection (More specifically over wifi) just randomly stopped. After a fair bit of reading on both these forums and Sony's own forum, I downloaded and installed an app called WeFi Pro. Somehow this seemed to fix everything and now have a working wifi internet connection again.
Will do some more reading into this but as a fix i'd recommend installing this app. Oh BTW its free so its a win all round!!
Hi,
I had no problems so far, but my Router broke and I got a new one. From this day one my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone is having this annoying wlan disconnects.
I have lots of wireless devices (laptop, tablet, 3ds, lots of htc phones etc, kindle) non of this has issues with my new router.
But somehow my S3 keeps losing the connection. This usually happens after I left the building and come back.
I look for many solution but couldnt find one working.
I tried the always on during stand by (it was anyway always on)
I tried to change the 2,4 brandwith but somehow this option is not availibly on my phone
I tried the *#0011# something number (I forgot) to change the wlan sleep time, but this option is not availible on my phone.
My router is using a dhtc ip distrupition also is using the b g n, which seems to work with any other device. I heard i should switch to only b g. But this lower the speed by 3, i dont want to do this. If this is the problem is there no fix for the samsung phone?
Thanks
ps after reconnecting the internet works without problem is the disconnect during standby which is annoying
Try a factory reset .

I did now a factory reset, it didnt work. I still have the same wlan problem. And now I have to press like 3x connect until it connects to the wlan network...
The problem is solved with the patch released in January.
This big updated fixed all problems.
Good night, first of all if this question have been answered previously can you kindly post the topic because i have searched it and can't figure it out by myself.
I own a UMI Zero (3.03 firmware) witch is rooted and with no framework changes, i have encontered a wifi problem i can't find an answer to resolve, when i connect to a wifi hotspot i can do it susscefully but then after a brief couple of seconds (it varys from 5 to up to 30 seconds or such) i lost the data connection, i stay connected to the hotspot but can't recieve any data and the page simple don't open anymore like it appears i am really offline.
I Have tried to reboot, update the firmware (from 3.01 to 3.03), try another browsers, try another hotspots, try a wifi network (like a home network it stays fine and good), just don't know what do to anymore
If you can understand my question (i don't know if i am being explanatory enough) and have a clue of what's happen i will glady aprecciate
Thanks in Advance
S3 wifi not working
(repost this to this section, adviced from xda assist)
I just purchased second-handed Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300 (international ver) to replace my old Samsung Galaxy Mini (GT-S5770). I purchased this cuz the price tag on one of local stores is just too tempting me to buy one, plus, giving me free true leather phone case! (though my target was Acer Liquid Z410, but not available on local stores and i dont know how to buy online as well)
The phone conditions, well, do have some minor scratches at the sides but the previous owner was middle-age man, and im not so picky with that detail.
The phone is great, well, except, the WiFi isnt in good condition in normal uses. (means, i can still uses them. details in below)
The S3 properties,
Android 4.3
International ver, GT-I9300
16 GB ver (which i found out some cases with unbootable S3, with 16GB ver only)
unroot
all related to network setting (includes mobile network, Bluetooth network, WiFi) is in default
The problem is, the WiFi.
The phone does detects WiFi hotspots or access points from far (in fact, it can detect my neighbour's home wifi even though is quite far, well, maybe around 20-30m, well, the signal was weak though).
SInce my home wifi is hidden, i pre-set the wifi. but, it wont even connect or even detect my wifi. My Internet TV with WiFI Direct do detected though (no internet connection since it wont host internet to devices who connect to the TV)
But, when i place my S3 like below 700cm range, my S3 detects my wifi and connects like normal devices. But when it get like further than 1m, the WiFi does not receives any data at all and after a while, the WiFi disconnected.
After i bought this phone, i hard factory reset my S3 (before reset, i didnt test WiFi and also from my uncle's advice cuz my phone seems a bit slow, well, he used to have S3). I didnt had a chance to test WiFi until i got home and tried to connect my WiFi.
I've tried many method i found online, (again, the WiFi only works if i put my S3 side by side with the access point/s)
Reboot router (I always reboot them cuz the router sometimes bugging) = not working.
Forget the network in S3 and preset. = not working
Tied with static IP address (connecting to my hidden network)(with google DNS) = not working
Enabled unhidden, open wifi profile on my router, try connect. = not working)
Connect to my TV's WIFi with WPA security = not working (tried to connect but just fails)
Tried *#0011#, Wifi, turn off power saving = not working
Things i havent tried,
reset again the S3
revert to factory firmware (actually, i tried but Kies 3 just wont work at all... it said that the device cannto be initiated or similar... so, the S3 didnt do anything)
using Odin to revert to stock factory rom
using Odin to update to unofficial kitkat rom
before im going to use Odin, which i dont ever done before, do you think that reset this phone to factory setting will fix this problem?
Try changing your router's channel.

if you mean router channel, the N radio, G radio and B radio,
sorry,
mine only supports G. (or maybe B and G. but for sure, no N)(dont forget that i did tried with my tv as well, since my tv has wifi direct but also be connected with usual wpa security. by the way, im pretty sure the tv radio channel supports b, g and n, and usually, they uses N channel for devices that supports N channel).
if thats not the case, then what do you mean?
