I have the sony z3v - and I'm constantly having to turn the wifi on my phone off and back on to reset the connection to my router. I'll be surfing the internet and all of the sudden I hit a brick wall and all forms of web traffic comes to a halt. The down arrow on my wifi icon stops responding, but the up arrow stays white and I lose access to the internet until I reset it on my phone (turning the wifi off and then on again). 4G never does this and I have no wifi issues with any of my other devices. Been searching high and low to figure this out, would be eternally grateful if you guys could help me.
I never have this issue. But I know from the past some phones have issues with special characters in the SSID.

I have to turn my Bluetooth on and off to resync with my zenwatch. Some days are worse then others. I always have my phone in my pocket, its just bizarre. I have this WiFi issue as well. It seems to only happen to me when I haven't rebooted my phone in more then a day.

My wifi connection often wrong, always in after a period of using, have no access to the Internet. Every time the wifi turned off to open another can get to the Internet, can wifi signal is always full. I searched a lot of method to did not solve, including XDA * # # 0011 turn off on wifi power save mode, when problem solving, but after a while just the same. And with only G mode and so on route, are not solutions. Change a lot of Rom, the kernel baseband all not line.Who's a way to solve?
I am not sure if this is the case but - have you tried different router? My S3 for example has issues when I go to my friend's house (he has some old/er Belkin router). However, when I am home wifi is blazing fast and no issues what so ever (cisco e3000).
my phone has a slight different problem, the phone detects strong signal for all my wifi, but will only save it, and not connect right away, some will not even connect, and sometime the speed is very slow.

I am sure there is no porblem with the router,SGS2 and IP4s with the same router is fine.
I'm getting WIFI problems when waking from deep sleep. My settings are set to keep WIFI on when sleeping only when plugged in, as i find this extends my battery life a little more.
Sometimes it reconnects when waking up, and other times it doesn't and i have to turn WIFI off and then on again to force it to scan and reconnect. If i don't do this and check WIFI, it says it's scanning, but never finds or connects to a network.
Anyone else get this?! I read somewhere about sleep of death on GS2?
There is a known problem with the wifi, I have just changed my phone and so far evrything is working.
been through 9-10 phone with different problems.
Ok, i've tried turning off WIFI power save in the system settings *#0011#
I'll report back with my findings in terms of waking from sleep and possible additional battery drain...
Turning off powersave didn't help on my speeds tho. My SGS2 can pull around 5-600KBs a second, while my SGS3 only pulls roughly half despite being at the roughly same location (ie laying next to each other)
sorry for my poor english
I have a xperia u no brand no root or anything. I found out that when the phone is connected through wifi - my own domestic line - and goes to deep sleep, after a while - i cannot be more precise since it is never the same amount of time - it loses the connection. It appears to be still connected, since the wifi symbol is still displayed, but cannot receive or send any data. I therefore have to turn off wifi, wait for a couple of minutes, and turn it on again. During this "wifi-sleep" the phone is not aware that is not getting any data, so it won't let 3g take over. I've tried many solutions - change wifi channel, change wifi beacon - but nothing seems to work. Of course I've already set the phone not to drop connection when standby in the wifi menu. the only trick that seems to work is to use apps such as regpon wifi that keep the connection artificially "awake", but this is definitely not a solution since battery drain skyrockets.
thank you in advance
I seem to be getting the same sort of wifi issues as previously stated elsewhere in this forum. I cannot hold a wifi connection on the 2.4ghz band fro more than 20s before its dissociated (ie i still have full connection to the router (3 bars) but cannot get through to the internet). This happens no matter what router i am connected to, whether its at home or at work.
I have tried:
[*]Setting the Wifi optimization checkbox off. No difference
[*]Avoid poor connections is off. No difference.
[*]Stamina mode is off. No difference.
[*]Keep Wifi on during sleep is set to Always. No difference.
[*]Sleep timeout to 30mins. No difference.
[*]I have factory reset the phone. No difference.
[*]Repaired the phone firmware with PC Companion. No difference.
I have also check to see if it is my router at home. I have switched between every channel available which made no difference. Security is Wpa/Wpa2 PSK AES which makes no difference. I only have the 2.4ghz available on that router at home (same at work).
My Note 3 and HTC One connect to both routers with no problems at all and do not drop out. Same goes with Sony Vaio Laptop.
I have installed Wifi Fixer on my Z2 to see if it can alleviate the problem and it does somewhat. instead of manually having to turn on and off the wifi toggle to reestablish a connection, the Wifi Fixer does it for me.Approx. every 20-30s in its log it will show the phone "dissociating" from the router, and the the app tries to "reassociate" the connection.
I can connect through wifi transfer to my Note 3 without issue, and the same goes for my TV, so it cant be a hardware fault, as the connection is still excellent strength for both (as well as the router, tested with Wifi Analyzer). This is a very frustrating problem as it makes watching youtube movies impossible, and hotspotting, skype calls, etc.....
And dont even get me started on the bluetooth dropouts. I am disconnected from a bluetooth connection every 66-70s without fail no matter what i try. No issues with my Note 3 and HTC One in the exact same conditions. It will disconnect then reconnect straight away with a delay of about 3 seconds, which makes calls and listening to music a VERY unpleasant experience.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I love everything else on this phone but this wifi/bluetooth connection issue is making it unusable. :crying:
I am on the .55 baseband version if that helps anyone
Anyone else having problems reconnecting to a WiFi connection, or even seeing WiFi SSIDs after disconnecting from WiFi?
This happens to me intermittently. I have 5 WiFi SSIDs in my house. 2.4G and 5G from the FIOS router, and the same from a WiFi access point on another floor at the other end of the house, and a Guest network from the AP. I can normally see all of them from any point in the house, as well as half a dozen from nearby neighbors. And my s9+ normally connects, automatically, to my primary 5G connection without any problem.
But occasionally, after being out and coming back home, or after the phone has been asleep for a while, it won' see any SSIDs. Not mine, or the neighbors. I've tried scanning for WiFi networks, turning WiFi off, waiting a few, and turning it back on, but it doesn't see anything, and won't connect. I've even tried manually inputting the name of one of my access points, but the phone won't find it.
Turn on WiFi automatically is on, WiFi power saving mode is off (although I've had the same issue with it turned on), Keep WiFi on during sleep was set to While charging. I've changed it to always, but it will be a while to see if that helps.
The only way I've found to get it to see WiFi networks again is to reboot the phone.
Oh, and other devices, including other Android phones, see all the SSIDs without issue.
Any thoughts or ideas?
I have te same issue here, I can't find a fix.
Mine will not connect to mobile date after I turn my wifi off. I have to reboot the phone in order to be able to make a call or use data. It all seemed to happen when a pop up came on to enable wifi calling. I can't figure out how to turn that off.
I don't have acupp1's issue with mobile data, but I seem to have resolved the WiFi connection issue by not letting the phone turn WiFi off during sleep. Haven't had the problem since I changed that setting.
I got the same problem since I rooted
Been trying to figure out if its a VENDOR Firmware problem or what. I do know that every developer says its a bug with the s9 when rooting. I've personally watch the live log on TWRP when flashing and seen where it mounts the VENDOR Firmware and then unmounted at the end. So it could possibly be a problem between TWRP and the s9 ROMs idk know exactly yet but I'm looking for a solution also. But I'm going to try what you did with your WiFi then report back here.
Hi folks,
Weird thing happening to me while I'm out of the country on vacation. Being out of the country is probably irrelevant though.
I'm in a hotel that has crappy slow "captive portal" wifi. So, you connect to the SSID without password, and it redirects you to a login page (name/room number), then it provisions the device.
The wifi frequently hangs or disconnects here, and is super slow even when it is working, so I decided to bail and just use my phone's mobile data. So I went into Internet and turned off the wifi. Slid that switch to OFF.
Looked down an hour later when I had trouble connecting to a site and found the wifi was back on and connected to the hotel site. I turned it off again, but shortly the same thing happened again.
Eventually I turned off the other part, where it can scan in the background for improved location etc, and THAT seems to have stopped the problem, but why does the wifi keep turning on and connecting when I've explicitly switched it off?
Bug? Feature?
Bit of a guess... you are on data roaming? If roaming, I bet the phone is looking for "better options" if discovery is on, and it will re-connect if it finds a wifi that it can use. I'll go with buggy-feature.
