Just wondering if anyone else has this issue. We have two networks at home and I need to switch between them quite often. I do so by changing the default gateway on my statically-set wifi settings, but since Pie the changes aren't saved. I can't even change my IP without forgetting and re-adding the connection. I change the gateway IP then go back (since I see no "save" button) but googling "ip" shows I'm still on the original network and if I go back into the wifi settings I can see it hasn't changed.
This is super frustrating. Am I alone? Is there a fix for this?
At the bottom right corner should be the Save-Button. Maybe you have to hide the keyboard to make it visible

How odd. I don't remember seeing that but I see it now. I'll check whether it's different when editing the settings on my home wifi after work. Hopefully I was just blind because I'd like to be able to save my wifi settings.

Right so I tested it again. Definitely wasn't blind. I was already pressing Save without noticing but yeah, it still doesn't work. Very much broken. Does it actually save any changes for you? For instance, if you go in and attempt to change your IP address, are you able to save it?
I've tried it, and it also doesn't save any changes. Then this is a bug of the Firmware.

Yeah I assumed it was but I wasn't certain if it was just me or not. Thanks for testing that and confirming! I'm on live chat with Samsung atm and the dude is checking with his phone, which is also on Pie apparently. Hopefully he can file a bug report if he can replicate.
Was a bug ever filed for this? I have the same. Issue. Cannot get it to change and save the static ip

I'm not sure when it changed but I noticed recently that on the current update it's fixed for me. I'm on Android 9 Pie. The exact build number in settings is PPR1.180610.011.G965FXXS4CSDH, if that's helpful.
If you still can't get it working, tell the network to "forget" and then re-add it, and set the static IP before you save for the first time and that should work.
That workaround works thanks.
hi guys, i tried on build PPR1.180610.011.N950FXXS7DSH1 its not saving wither with workaround or with normal way.
Any suggestio

Howdy, so I did a factory reset last night and since then my Prime cant seem to find my location , in any weather app or maps.....i tried a factory reset a few more times but still no luck....any ideas on what i can try to resolve this would be greatly appreciated!
Assuming you have location services turned on in the settings, remember tablets aren't meant to use gps. If you need gps, go buy a garmin or smartphone, because everyone around here will tell you tablets dont need gps.
I dont care about GPS, never my intention for the tablet.
Location sevices were all checked and that part of it worked perfectly before the factory reset.
Just got to work and it seems to connect ok here. Not sure what happened at home but I will test this evening.
Do you have another android device to test ?
It could be that Google doesn't know about your router's location. They have a database of wifi router locations and maybe they never got yours.

Uncheck the ALL location options, then save. Then check them again, you will get a nice terms and conditions dialogue, accept it. Save.
This is crazy....i had location working all day at work and the gym.
I get home and it can't find location. Weird thing is it was fine until i did the reset.
Ugh

I was curious because I had similar issues when I first turned on my prime but I had to go set the setttings like you have them to get it straightened out. Assuming that you have not already set everything up again, have you tried another factory reset?

I did a factory reset, that is when this particular issue starting happening.
Before that location was not a problem for me, at home or on any other wifi.
I did the factory reset intially because it was acting weird, sluggish and non responsive so I figured I would give that a shot before pursuing anything else ...and now my location service wont work at home. Which is strange because it does work on several other wifi spots that I have tried.
I read somewhere that Google can sometimes lose your wifi/router from its DB, just havent found out if there is a way to maybe force it back..?
The fact that it works everywhere but my home which is where I use it like 95% of the time kinda sucks...Maybe I will ping Asus and see what they have to say about it.
I've noticed that whenever I go somewhere and I'm near another wi-fi network my phone saves it in the available networks. The problem I have is it won't remove ANY of them that I'm no longer near. I've got 20+ listed and several are points from across the city I live in. I can't figure out how to get my phone to purge the list when a network isn't close by.
Any advice?

No. The only ones that will allow me to "forget" are the ones I have saved. The ones that are stuck are ones I've never accessed.
Ah ok. That's a rather strange behavior.
Maybe something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roamingsoft.manager could sort it out? Not really sure. Hard to find info on this particular quirk due to the keywords bringing up a million other wifi issues.
Thanks for the help. The "Wi-fi Manager" works great but the stock wi-fi manager is still screwy.

No problem. Better than nothing, at least. If you had an iPhone or Windows phone that was being weird like that, you'd just have to deal with it.

Sorry guys, thought we had one of these already.
Just curious about the V_2.3.1? Mostly the reception, but....
Is the Reception any better - mainly for those that have lousy reception to start with.
Are you having any issues?
I haven't heard anything yet so let me know :good:
I have decent reception at my house but I think the beta added a bar to it (from 3 to 4). Definitely better at my son's school. I was only getting 3g there but now get LTE. The big test will be at work but I'm on vacation and don't go back until next week.
I was so amazed that I actually noticed a better internet connection I never looked at my signal bars there is an extra bar or two in my house, which I swear I only had one if that all the time one thing is that I'm not sure if it is the ROM or me but shutdownani is really choppy, every since 2.2 but I try modules sometimes that make my phone unstable like xprivacy& cool tool which I immediately remove but deff noticed improved signals, like I actually see the difference
Updated to 2.3.1 to check apn, I checked apn setting. They didn't change, so I selected reset to default. Then I lost internet and apn kept selecting VM. On reboot phone app fc. Had to revert apn.config and do ##scrtn

Yes, I already did that edit. 4 me in a specific area the 4G is slower than the 3G. I wanted to try different apns. But those APN would not connect for Sprint at all
What is the intended effect of that file? Sprint has its own APN on a profile update
Works Well for me, definitely see improvement with Switching from 3g to LTE. I also find an LTE signal much quicker. I work in NYC, before the 2.3.1 update I would struggle to get an LTE signal once I left Penn station, now As soon as I walk out it grabs a signal. engine95 you are the Man Bro.
@engine95
I think the apn.config has bad settings for Sprint OTA, I've edited going to test, should be able to activate phone with the edits.

I'm not sure what you were trying to do prior to the above.
If you're talking the apn in the beta, It seems to work better for all of us.

The original, and the beta do the update profile/prl as they should. And "Activate device" is the telltale.
But, you can't use the beta on a fresh install. Meaning on a full ROM. It'll only work as an update.
Remind me again what issue you're trying to fix and I'll see if I can help.
Edit: In V3, it has a new zipalign binary that does what you want.
Did some testing, updating profile/prl works because it uses apn settings from activation, but if you do ##72786# which erases everything then reboots and does an activation using apn.conf.xml to connect to ota. But the setting don't work for ota. Crashes phone app and then only way to fix by wiping and doing clean install.

That would be right because it has to go through the setup all over again. Just like a clean, full rom install. And it can't find the apn it needs.
Yes, all that file is, is a hack. Not a fix.
Well I'm going to keep working on trying to make the hack safe,
The new native hosts file appears to be blocking random pictures in the play store. Not sure which URL is the culprit but I disabled the file temporarily and the pictures come back. Other than that v3 is running great. Thank you.
I didn't experience any data or APN issues, rom running good, battery real good, only thing I noticed, LEDs aren't working for any app, for me.

That can happen. If they are too restrictive, then you might have to use the stock Sprint one.

Mine are but the timing is about 10 sec between blinks.
I guess check your settings, and maybe wipe cache and dalvic?
I just realized I don't have the native Wi-Fi calling app. Can I ##72786# from v 3.01 and get it to download or is that only on factory ROM?
Hi Everyone!
If this is in the wrong place I apologise,
I have been using the AOSP ROM (http://en.miui.com/thread-502828-1-1.html)
Everything was fine using the March version of the ROM but I installed the 20/5/2017 version and i started (every now and then) getting my WIFI saying connected but no internet... I then cannot use my browser, apps that need WIFI etc until i reboot my phone then works ok again for a while.
They then released an update 21st and also one after that 23rd. I have tried both the updates and i still get the error, I have done a clean install both times and wiped the cashes. I have also tried this .>> http://www.techsiddhi.com/2014/05/how-to-resolve-connected-to-wifi-but-no.html
i have tried to change to static IP on my device but wont allow me to save changes i am out of ideas and really dont know what to do, I dont think its an issue with the ROM but maybe my router, i just dont know...
I appreciate any help you guys could give!
Many thanks
Matthew

Which router do you have ?
I had issues with Wi-Fi on a bt home hub (previous to this phone though) which had similar symptoms.
I got around it by tweaking the settings in the hub (disabled band steering, so that 2.4ghz and 5ghz have different ssid's. Also set 2.4 to be"mode 3")
A long shot, that you have the same router, I know.

Thanks very much for the info George I really appreciate the effort you have put into finding the information for me, I was no a fan of the Chinese ROM that came with the phone that's why i looked into installing a custom ROM and apart from the current issue I am very happy with it.
I have downloaded the Global ROM and Magisk films so that if I cannot find a solution soon I can give it a try.... I always get nervous when rooting/flashing new software as I always worry about boot loops etc as i am fairly new to all this.

Thanks very much for getting back to me I really appreciate it! I definitely think were on the right track, my router is a SKY Fibre router but I can't say I understand what you are talking about lol... I have been into the router settings and had a look, one think i have noticed is even tho I have changed my ROM 3 times, starting from scratch each time it is still allocated the same ip address etc.. (192.168.1.6) so it seems to be carrying the problem over each time.
I have tried rebooting the router, phone several times I did try and follow steps to change to a static IP from my modify network on my phone but would not allow me to save the changes..
I did read that I should try and go into developer options and enable "Use legacy DHCP client) I did this after flashing the latest version of the AOSP ROM (23/5/2017) so far its been ok but i'm not sure if it will last. I just don't understand what the problem is??
Thanks again guys for all your help and I hope I can get to the bottom of it!
Matt
Did you upgrade it or do a clean flash? Try a clean flash if you didn't. I am using the latest build of the same ROM, no problems at all.

Yes did a clean install 3 times, it must be bringing the problem with it somehow, i don't understand it?
Each of the 3 time I have done a full wipe and cleared all cashes etc....
Also, you are not restoring Amplify settings from the download page? Are you able to connect to other routers?
The router is assigning you the same up address each time because your Mac address isn't being changed when you flash new Rom (Mac address is unique 12 digit number, hard coded into the radio on your phone. It should stay the same. You can change it temporarily by spoofing. Do not pay attention to this though, it is for info only, just so you know what's happening )
Your router recognises the Mac address of the phone and issues it the same ip address that's been given before, by dhcp.

It'll likely be some erroneous setting in his sky router. Sky are well known for issuing appalling hardware with their connections(and forcing customers to use them by refusing to give adsl login details, so people can use their own supplied hardware)
Another poster asked if op has the same issue using other routers - I'll bet that it's just with this one router.

I can log into my SKY router but not sure what I can change, I have not tried to log into any other wifi yet, I can get internet absolutely fine on my SKY router. What happens is after a couple of hours or so I notice I am not getting any internet on my phone and I have an exclamation mark on my WIFI Symbol, so I turn it off and on, reboot etc.. and it comes right for a while then happens again so its intermittent.. Like i said above so far its been ok using legacy DCHP in developer options but im not 100% convinced as yet..
i am not sure if this helps any but you know when you first flash your rom and android starts for the first time and you go through the welcome screen, choose language etc.. I notice when i select my WIFI and enter my password it briefly (slit second) shows "Connected No internet" but then does the usual obtaining IP address etc....

I have clean flashed MIUI Global ROM and still have the issue, I have now put AOSP ROM Back on as its sooooo much better than MIUI as I can safely say its nothing to do with the phone itself and seems to be a router/phone settings issue but i still dont really know what to do..
Over the last week or so I have noticed workmen looking at out local green fibre box and wondering if it is an issue with the line so I might give SKY a ring and see whats the issue.

Just to give you guys a bit of an update...
I have just got of the phone with SKY now and they have asked me to change the channel from auto to channel 13 and also to select WPA/WPA2-PSK.
As i was on the phone to them my phone did the "connected no internet" thing and i used my laptop to make the changes to the router and after a few seconds my phone connected again so I am hoping that this may have fixed the issue! Fingers crossed!
Still doing it! So I have installed EPIC ROM and my router has given a different ip address so fingers crossed it wont do it anymore, been a few hours and so far so good...
totally late to this, but i'm facing the same problem on my redmi y2. the router that i'm using is TP Link archer C50. no custom rom or anything. please help
li faced a similar problem as my phone won't detect wifi signal from my router, i reset my phone but only after 15 minutes my phone can't detect signal from my router but problem solved when i switched aeroplane mode on and than off as soon as i switched it off wifi signal was detected and my phone got connected to it. Sometimes it shows no internet i switch aeroplane mode on & than off and it starts to work again or it gets fixed automatically too. You can try too it may help.
Hi,
I have rooted android 4.2 tablet.
I would like to destroy my wifi.
If I will remove MAC adress (if it possible??) will it make the job? I thought that would be possible through software code. or remove some systems folder.
also, if there is an option to remove the wifi icon from status bar and also from setting menu that would be great. I will turn it off then remove those symbols.
I need help with those things. if you have other better ideas I'll be happy to hear.
Thank you.

This by far is the strangest post I have ever encountered in all my time on xda, anyway, I don't think it's possible, atleast with simple ways, for removal of options from quick tiles and settings you will need to mod the settings and systemui which will make it impossible to access wifi on/off option which in turn will remove wifi in a sense. But doing it takes some advanced knowledge on the workings and manipulation of Android system files.

:laugh: I need it to block the internet for some reasons.
Does it possible with any firewall or specific app to block the internet?

I don't think any app will help you turn wifi off if someone intentionally wants to use wifi on the device, a firewall can only stop apps from accessing the internet. But maybe you can try a method that I am not 100% sure about but it worked for some people, go to build.prop the find the lines;
wifi.interface=
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=
And delete them, or if those lines aren't present then go to system>etc>wifi, find the files which are named "bcmdhd_" and delete them and reboot, but I definitely recommend taking a backup with a custom recovery before doing either of the two because these edits might cause adverse side effects or might bootloop your device, so use caution. Hope it helps.

Thank you.!!
I found that line: "wifi.interface=wlan0" but didn't found "wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=".
Anyway I deleted that line. At first WI-FI woreked well but after reboot it stoped.
Now it show "WIFI" symbol and I can enter to wifi interface but he can't find any of the lans available. and the lans I used to connect it say "out of range" even I near the router. That enough for me and that is what I wanted.!!
Thank you!
