I'm having some strange 3g hiccups lately. I'll elaborate.
sometimes while browsing etc the phone will hang on 3g connections (eg does not even resolve DNS). the data connection icon keeps cycling the 3g and H symbols; at each new symbol switch the upload and download arrows seem to 'do something' for some instants then they fail and start the cycle all over again. I don't even seem to find a way to resolve the issue as putting the phone in airplane mode for some time does not help, and neither disabling 3g networks for a couple minutes. I also tried a reboot which did not help. The only working solution seems to be patiently wait till it works again.
I would not swear on this but I think this issue started when I flashed stock 360. I am however 100% sure that this was not happening, say, a couple months ago.
I am not even sure there is a problem with the phone, there might as well be some problems with the carrier.
anyone experienced anything similar?

I have noticed in the last few days that my new HTC One is not waking from sleep with WIFI functionality. When it wakes, the WIFI symbol in the notifications tray is gone. When I go to settings, And look at the WIFI option, It says that it is disconnected. When I touch to configure the WIFI settings, the settings app hangs on a black screen. I have to reboot my phone to get the WIFI back. Is anyone else having this issue?
Phone Model: HTC One
Router Model: ASUS RT-N66R / RT-N66U
Frequency: 5ghz
I am now testing in the 2.4ghz frequency and will report back my findings.
I can confirm that I don't experience this issue with 2.4ghz. No drops in 4 days. When I switched back to 5ghz on the 5th day, I got the drop and freeze within the hour.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I'm having the same issue. Can't tell what frequency band it's on when it happens though sorry.
I am having the exact same issue. It coincided with installation of an app called mute-o-matic in my case. I was wondering if the crash is related to the installation of this app. Could any one experiencing this crash comment on this?
[Update] It has happened 3 times in the last week. Wifi function just locked up, and had to restart phone to fix. Very frustrating. It's reasons like this that is driving me back to iOS. All the amount of tweaks and customization is not worth it when the phone is not reliable on basic functions. iPhones may be boring, but it at least I never once ever in years on owning them needed to restart it to fix a problem.
[Update 2] Android 4.3 update seemed to have solved the wifi crash issue. It is running much more stable after the update. Had it installed for 3 days now, and no crashes or self-rebooting so far.
Cleaning
Thread has been cleaned. Please be respectful to others and do not incite.
[Update 3]
I previously thought that JB 4.3 update has rectified the wifi crash issue for good. After over a week with 4.3, wifi crash happened today.
The wifi option page was not grey-out, but it would not connect to any network, When I toggled it from "on" to "off" state, it failed to respond. At the end, only a phone reboot could fix it.
Frustrating to say the least.
[Update 4]
I can now reproduce the wifi problem when leaving the phone running on battery overnight. During the first week after 4.3 update, I left my phone plugged-in to power most of the time, and perhaps as a result, the wifi crash did not happen.
Basically, the wifi crash I am experiencing after 4.3 update is more or less the same issue reported by others on their HTC Ones (including One, One X, One S), where the wifi failed to connect after long period of inactivity.

For now, I am going to switch "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to "Always", as suggested in the 2nd link above. This should keep the wifi connection on the during sleep, and hopefully fixes the issue. I'll report back.
Hi, I have the Tmobile version of LG G5 H830 and after android 8.0 Oreo update, the Wifi keeps disconnecting (it doesn't TURN OFF) some minutes after locking the phone, altough it seems like it would "turn off" bc when I unlock phone, it won't reconnect automatically, have to manually do so, network would say "saved" or "disabled". I'm not sure how long after screen off this happens but I'd say anywhere between 10-30 mins. YES, the "keep wifi ON when screen is OFF" option is enabled in "Advanced Wifi" settings. This is quite anoying bc my phone number and calls work on data/wifi (google number + hangouts) so I put my phone in airplane mode with wifi ON only when at home to avoid strong radio signal near my body so, if it disconnects, I wont get any calls or msgs or anything, might miss something important, plus, I use whatsapp web on laptop and every so often will say "phone not connected" and msgs wont update, cant send, etc, that's when I grab phone to reconnect it manually.
I just tried disabling the "keep wifi on when screen is off" setting and re-enabling it to see what happens, will let u know if fixed
Update: Confirmed, issue is still happening.
PD: Phone is not rooted, stock Tmobile ROM
try a soft reset followed by a lgup flash, see what happens

I noticed it only happens if the wifi signal is weak, say 1 bar. For now I'm just working on the reception, like leaving the phone nearer to modem and specially not covering it with anything. If it worsens I might try something drastic like that.
But hey, ty very much! Greetings from Cartagena, Colombia.
PD: I remember seeing an option in older android phones like Motorola DROID family I think they were android ICS, that said something like "skip weak signals" or smth similar and I always disabled it bc it would not connect to 1 bar signals, but I don't see such option or anything similar in this one. It seems to be in a: "skip weak signals when screen is off" mode.
I have buyed the new released Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S and i have problems with the Wifi. When you let the device to sleep for few hours wifi stops working. When turning on the phone from sleep the wifi dont work and you have to turn the wifi off and on to restore it, then i receive all the messages at once when the apps (Line, Whatsapp, etc) reconnect to inet. It seens to happen only if the device is sleep for few hours. If is only sleep for few minutes it works ok. Anyone experienced this issue, knows how to solve it?
I noticed strange wifi behaviors too
I also encounter same issue...
please advise your rom version.
my device does not get that's problem
11.0.1 global
11.0.3 india global
11.0.5 india global
I have used my RMN9S more than a week ago and I don't have any issue with WiFi. My device connect to WiFi almost 24/7 without any problem. BTW mine 11.0.3 global
Mine is 11.0.3 global. When i awaked this morning and checked the phone it was working ok. No problems at all after all night in sleep mode. I am puzzled. I hope it was a "one" time fault and it works from now on. I come again if i have news.
Just got the wifi connected without internet... Had to disable and renable
This also happens to my Redmi Note 9S.
It happens with all current ROMs. I experienced it with global, indian and eu ROMs.
Its also random, it does not happen after x hours. Sometimes its just 1 hour, others is 7 hours, others it does not happen.
What I do:
I turn off the smartphone screen to sleep, with wifi on. AC connected.
I have some apps reading internet data every 2 minutes.
When I wake up, I see the wifi icon connected. But Internet doesn't work.
When I look at the apps, I can see that they stopped accessing internet at a random time in the night.
If I turn wifi off and on, internet works again.
It doesn't happen with wifi off and mobile data connection on.
I tried changing some values in dev settings. Also in battery settings. Nothing has worked yet.
With normal day usage, it can also happens, if the screen is off a few hours.
It not a router wifi issue. My old note 3 worked fine with the same wifi. My wife's redmi note 8 pro works fine too.
It can be something related to battery saving. But so far I have been unable to fix if.
It never happens with screen on, or with screen off for a few minutes.
So I dont think its a hardware issue, I think its software-related.

Thank you DjXavy, your post is perfect to describe my issues. As anyone triying to contact Xiaomi about this problem? Are they even aware of it?
-deleted-
It could be a drivers or firmware problem. Xiaomi should be able to fix it.
What can we do:
1) If it happens to you too, please report it here and give details if you can. That way, Xiaomi can evaluate how common the problem is.
2) While it get fixed: Do someone know an app, or can build one, that check every few seconds if internet conection is working, and if it fails a few times, the app turns wifi off and on? It will require a rooted smarthphone to control wifi switch.
3) Do someone know how to send bug reports to Xiaomi? It would be good is they get a link to this thread.
I have updated to 11.0.5 now, lets see if its fixed or not. I have used the inbuilt report feature in the phone to report the issue but anything else except this post.
I have flashed xiaomi.eu 11.0.5 today. Still Wi-Fi Problems here. Hope Xiaomi get this fixed soon.
I have been contacted by Xiaomi support in the phone app. Now at least they are aware of the problem.
They called me today too. I have send them logs. At least they are working hard at this Problem. Everyone should send them logs to get this error fixed soon.
I may found the cause and workaround to prevent this bug.
Normally WiFi recognizes absence of internet connection. But in our case we're still online and I noticed some syncs still working. So DNS is coming to my mind. But I still changed my wifi to static IP using Google 8.8.8.8 DNS.
With Pie(?) Google introduced "Private DNS". I remember in MIUI 10 this feature was hidden and by default "off". On my NOTE 9S (global MI version) this setting was set to "Automatic" by default. After turning it off while dysfunctional WiFi, internet was coming back right away. After this (still) continuous connection.
The time is too short to be sure it's gone forever (*evil laugh*), but you guys could help to test.
You find the option in "Settings | Connection & sharing | Private DNS".
Good work. Continue trying things!
I switched off that same option days ago.
My 9S still have problems with wifi.
Sometimes, even switching the screen off a few minutes is enought to trigger it.
I'm still trying things, but no luck so far.
Although I've only had it for one day, I've not seen this problem yet. Wonder if it's a Wi-Fi compatibility issue or something strange?
I have noticed that I dont have problems when I am connected to a 802.11n network. The last Days I have had the Problems I Was connected to 802.11ac (2,4ghz + 5ghz). Today I was connected to an old 802.11n network and everything seems to be okay. Do you have the Problems with both Networks?

Interesting. I'm connecting to a 802.11ac wifi too.
I will switch to a 802.11n one and see what happens.
Got the Reno 2 this week to try as ive never had an oppo phone before.
The only issue i have is when browsing on wifi every now and then it will stop loading any internet pages. Its looking like it starts to try to load a page then stops and the only way i get it working again is to toggle wifi off and on then pages load fine again until the next time. Its not my internet or router as every other device i have connected never has an issue.
Anyone know of wifi issues with this phone? Its still on Android 9 as no update os showing yet. I'd rather not send it back for a refund but i cant live with this issue so id rather find a fix.
