Wifi Issues on SM-T820 - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

Hey guys! So first of all I'm a newbie in the most recent technology, so if I said something that does not make any sense, please bear with me
Basically, I've updated my Galaxy Tab S3 a week ago to Android version 8.0.0/Samsung Experience version 9.0, and something VERY STRANGE happened.
So my Wifi connection set up, it says that I'm connected to my network but it has no internet. And here is the chicky part, I can actually browse online, download and update my apps even use FB app, BUT when I try to link and sign in on my OneDrive Cloud it says that I need internet connection.
I have no idea what is going on, so if anyone can please help me with this particular issue
PS- before the update i had no issues with internet connection with my tablet. By the way all my other devices are connected to the network with no issues.
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem. I tried resetting many times and still doesn't work. I was hoping another firmware update would fix the problem, and yesterday I was happy to see a new update with google patch Oct. 2018. I was excited and updated the firmware, but still have internet problem. So I tried factory reset the Tab S3- bad decision! Now I can't even get pass the "Agree to the Terms and Conditions" section since it says I have no internet!

[Q] Help! Internet connection weird. can surf but not download

I just had about enough with this device! This is so frustrating...
Okay, I have not done anything to my tfp. it's on stock .11. Wifi was flimsy as with everybody, but I was perfectly able to surf the internet and download apps from the market etc.
I am not sure what has happened but suddenly my internet connection isn't working properly no more. the wifi icon stays grey, I can no longer browse the android market (tells me there is a network problem) and when I open the standard browser it tells me there is a problem with certificates on pretty much every page I open.
What the hell is going on? I don't have time for this! I need to work with this device.
Has anyone ever had similar experiences with android/tf201? It might be an ICS quirk, maybe some sort of software fluke or an actual security problem, I have no idea what to google or where to check.
Please help!

[Q] Needing help with S5830L

Hi, everyone.
After a slight fall, my S5830L started rebooting randomly. In some cases it just shutdown.
Looking for causes, I've found that when Data Connection is active ( In Settings - Wireless and Network Settings - Mobile Networks) it reboots.
If I turn off Data Connections everything is fine. I even can connect using WiFi when available, and synchronize accounts, send emails, access market, etc. All OK.
When I check again Data Connection option, sooner or later (rather sooner) it fails again.
Has anyone heard about issues like this? I need some help to deal with it. I can use almost everything, except data connection, and I really miss it
Thanks to all for the answers, any idea is welcome!
Augusto.
PS: Hope my mail is clear enough, since English is not my native language...

Hi, this is not normal, what firmware do have you installed?
This problem may be occur with any program installed and not for firmware problem.
I've flashed at least three different firmwares and with all the same problem persists.
Right now i've Android 2.3.6 (from Entel PCS, Chile)
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-perf- CL771662
Compilation Number: GINGERBREAD.UBKPL
Baseband Version: S5830LUBKPL
The problem started after my son dropped the phone downstairs, just a couple of steps, though...
I don't remember installed anything wierd, for that time.-
PS: I took the info about Entel PCS version from your web. Thanx. Nice Job!
I would have to agree that it sounds more software then hardware based. Usually if hardwares broken its very predictable. I would try to restore a different firmware stock or custom. I have an L and went with a custom rom. The data dropping might be a baseband issue but someone more wise than I would have to comment on that.
The wierd thing is that on the first connection it works, at some point the connection hangs, then while trying to reconnect it shutdown.
I was running a Samsung's 2.3.4 firmware when the problem started, then I flashed a Personal Stock 2.3.4 firmware (the original, that came with the phone), after that tried Entel PCS's 2.3.6. I keep this one because it's the newer version...
All behave the same way. The baseband should be the same for all, because the L (S5830L) is for LatinAmerica, and I've always double checked this.
Hi,
Have you tried to flash the original stock ROM again? You can download it from http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
This site also explain how to use odin to flash the firmware.
My Android version is 2.3.4and Baseband is S5830LUBKPF and it works OK
I believe it might be hardware wise. Have you rooted you SGA already?

[Q] TF201 Cannot download for Playstore or connect to some web sites

Hey Guys,
I just purchased a Prime 201 and am having serious issues that i was hoping someone could help me with.
After getting home i switched it on and let it go through the standard setup routine where i was asked for my google credentials and to connect to a wireless network. As part of this process an updated firmware version was detected and automatically installed (I'm assuming the update to jellybean)
Once this was complete i attempted to use the device but instantly started having problems with the playstore and connecting to certain web sites.
1. I can connect to the playstore fine but cannot download any updates or new applications. The downloading screen appears but downloads never actually start
2. Through the browser i can connect to certain websites such as cnn.com or microsoft.com and they work fine. Pages load quickly and all appears to be working as it should. However when i try to access sites such as google.com, yahoo.com or a number of other sites the browser just sits there and eventually times out giving me an error saying that the page is unavailable.
3.Gmail works fine and i can send and receive email without a problem
I have tried a series of cold boots and factory resets and still have the same problem. I tried creating a new google account and that didn't work either. I don't believe that its a problem with my router as i can connect fine from other devices including a nexus phone which has no issues with the playstore or accessing web sites.
I have made no mods whatsoever and this is a straight out of the box configuration plus the automatic firmware update. In settings it reports the android version as being 4.1.1 and the build number as JR003C.WW_epad-10.4.2.18-20121122
I've also tried clearing the cache from the apps settings and am running out of ideas fast !
PS: The only other thing that seemed odd is when i perform a a cold reset and select the RCK optioni just get the android robot error (red exclamation mark) I'm pretty new to all things android and wasn't sure if this was related to the problem or not
Any ideas would be appreciated as this is driving me crazy
Thanks
Chris

If that is a "stock" machine and you have not unlocked it etc then you should not have the dead android.
Contact Asus and get it swapped mate.

google now not working anymore, can't connect to network

Hi
i got this issue simultaneously on my N5 and N7, both on 4.4.4
i received a google search update yesterday, and since google now doesn't work. it won't connect to network.
i tried removing and adding back my account... not working.
i then even wiped partition cache and did a full reset, but then again google now won't launch, and it tells me "can't connect o network"...
am i the only one experiencing this issue?
PS i did nothing between yesterday and todya, all my devices are stock, no root nothing. and it happened simultaneously on both my devices after the google search update....
You're not the only one.
I also with my HTC one M7 got the update and ever since cannot use the Now features for a lame excuse no network connection is available.
Of course there is running internet connection
I also uninstalled, cleared cache partition and app data with no help...
I guess it's either a server issue or a bad update for the app.
Already sent a bug report to Google earlier today.
and so far i've been trying every "solution" i read on the web for 5 hours.... nothing worked
No, it isn't...
As I already wrote, I guess either server fix or app fix will be the solution.
Probably nothing we can do on our side.
And it works, just like that this morning...

HELP! Wife is driving me crazy.

About 8-10 months ago.....maybe a little longer, my wife and I purchased two LG K7 (LG-K330) on the Family Mobile plan (T-mobile). I have had zero problems with my phone. My wife on the other hand is having some bizarre problems and she's blaming me for them. Here is a small list of some of the problems:
1. Being blocked from websites that she has been to on several occasions.
2. When going to a website, she will get either redirected or a screen saying 404 Error and one that states she does not have permission.
3. On Facebook, she has lost the ability to access all of her settings. Her "Sharing" configuration has changed and she can't set it back. And she's saying that she doesn't have the same amount of access that she had previously.. She says that sometimes she can't access links in Facebook and when she tries it bounces her right back to where she was.
She has been poking around the phones files and she claims that there are very similar file on my laptop computer. Now she thinks I am trying to limit her access and phone usage. For all I know, she has deleted something that needs to be on the phone. My question is has anyone experienced something like this before and if so, is it repairable? One more note on this matter. This is the fourth phone that this has happened on. The others were Samsung's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated because I can finally prove to her that I'm not smart enough to "hack her phone.
LG K7
Provider: Family Mobile
Model LG-K330
Android ver. 5.1.1
Security Patch Level: 2017-04-01
Build Number: LMY47V
Software ver. K33011g
Phone has never been rooted and has stock firmware. It has been connected to my laptop a couple of times to transfer photo's.
That's a bizarre problem to be having. But have you tried factory resetting it? Back up important files like photos beforehand. This honestly sounds more like a problem with the network than the phone. Have you been using the network? Make sure your DNS is correct and that your network isn't being limited.

I swear it's her doing it somehow. It happens to every phone she has used. I have done several factory resets and it hasn't helped. She used our wi-fi connection at home ALL the time. I'll check out the DNS and see if it's being limited. But I would think that I would be having the same problem as I use the network a lot too.
Hey Billybobjoe, I have some additional information that might clarify the problem. She says she cant reach "https" sites, she can only see part of her Facebook page, the permissions are growing and sharing is a lot worse. She says she can't really get to a "real" website(it says something about "there is no cache for the page". She also states that she can no longer change her privacy settings on Facebook and that she thinks her phone is heavily connected to Russian social media websites.
Does this help in any way? Thanks in advance for all your help in this matter.
