Anyone with the Amaze 4G for T-Mobile USA notice that it often doesn't connect to remembered WiFi networks even though they are in range and it will only connect if you go to view WiFi settings/networks under settings then it connects?
Also, anyone have any issues connecting to WiFi networks where the SSID is not being broadcast? I can get it to connect initially but it will never reconnect to a hidden SSID network that it "remembers"?
Using stock gingerbread ROM.
I notice this happens every now and then... I will have to open my WiFi networks, then before I can click on the network, it refreshes. It happens only rarely for me, but I have noticed it at times

glad im not the only one, sometimes when i get home i have to go to the wifi settings and refresh the scan, after i been home for several minutes,
had seen this on stock and faux kernel
Hi i went from stock ics on my ray to cm9 by followingnexact step by step guide provided by cm9. Used their kernel as well. Have never modded my phone before. Having a small problem with wifi though. After my phone has been asleep for a while, if i wake it up the wifi icon in status bar is no longer blue its a dark grey and i can no longer browse anything or use the internet. Ive tried rebooting. I did the whole wipe cache etc when installing cm9. In wifi settings in advanced ive also left the setting to "leave wifi on when sleep" checked. If i turn off and on the wifi connection the phone ofcourse is able to reconnect again the icon is blue and i can connect. It not jsut a one off thing its been happening since i isntalled the rom.
If i wakek from sleep a few minutes later i have no issue with wifi. Its only when its been sleep for a while do i have this issue.
Any solutions?
I have the exact same problem but for me it's even bigger, whenever i turn on wifi on my modem, i can connect to internet on my phone, but after awhile i lose my connection completely, on my phone and on my pc also, the only way to get it back is to reset my router and wait for like 5-10minutes...

If its also an issue with your. Pc then your issue might be also the router.
My other devices actually work fine in my case its oky this phone that has issues. Macbook iphone ipad nexus s no problems with those.
Same issue here. I can see available networks but unable to connect. There should be no problem with the wifi router as all my other devices work well and I have tried another router. Now I have to flash back to stock firmware.

Your issue seems more severe than mine. Mine actually connects and works, just that when it wakes from long sleep it wont work until i turn off and on wifi.
I get this problem too, but my problem even worse than yours. My wifi lose it's connection after a while, but the icon on status bar shows it's connected, running ping test, browse, even play store can't be accessed. I pinged the router and got unreachable.
And yeah, this problem occurs when I'm using all ICS based rom..
Anybody has any idea if this is a known problem, or if its just us few having thisissue?

I have same problem. I have SE xperia mini with CM9. WiFi worked fine until yesterday. Now phone can't connect to AP (full signal - try connect -> signal drops down), but sharing 3G internet over WiFi works fine. I cleared dalvik cache, but that didn't help.
my wifi keeps dropping. Is anyone else having this issue.? It only stays connected about 2 minutes and then disconnects. I have tried to reboot the phone with it does not seem to fix the issue. One other thing it does not reconnect either.
Gman
found it
It was smart WiFi. Add to add home router to this app and now I'm staying connected. Thanks!

Seems like that only happens once you open the att wifi app.
Opened the app last night and once I tried to connect to a new network it would just keep dropping wifi and disabling the radio. Anyone know if freezing or uninstalling the att smart wifi app fixes this?
I disabled most all the ATT bundled apps right away and have had no problems with wifi.
I am having a problem with my Wifi.
When I try to connect to a wifi network, and the first time it connects fine, and stays connected.
But if I leave, or disconnect, then it won't re-connect ever again. It spends about 2 minutes searching/connecting and then I get an error message saying:
"Attention
Network Disabled. Poor Connection
cancel retry forget"
I have tried rebooting, wiping the cache, forgetting all my wifi connections, turning on/off airplane mode.
[Edit] I have 3 wifi routers at my office and the problem has happened with all 3.
I think I've tried everything except a factory reset.
anyone else having the same problem or a solution?

I have the same problem. I've only seen it work once.
My phone is on the fritz with random restarts and occasional bootloops but I still need to use it somehow. Now it won't connect to a wifi network. When i switch wifi on, it either does nothing or the antenna icon in the quick settings blinks but doesnt connect.
Im on stock LG android 4.4.2, but rooted.
Ideas?
