Hi,
Since this week I've gotten the update to One UI 4.1.1 (Android 12) and ever since I've installed it on my tablet, I'm getting the notification that I'm "connected without internet". I've looked around on the interwebs and it seems to be a very commen problem? However, the strangest thing is that I do have internet, I can surf any browse any site I want, I just always have the ! next to my wifi symbol.
Has anyone else had the same issue and found a way to solve it? I've already tried to:
Forget and re-add my wifi
Follow steps online, like static IP, tablec MAC (instead of spoofed)
Advice welcome!

Finally got the solution after many trials and methods, here is the video

I searched but couldn't find a great reference point for what I'm looking for - I've rooted my Gtab to Vegan 5.1 (or 1.5? I can't remember) right after I got it in early Spring.
Well now I have issues with the Wifi - I can connect to the network and go to websites - but none of my apps (Gmail, Gtask, Zinio, Market) will connect to the network. Am I missing a setting somewhere? I'm planning on upgrading to a new ROM soon - but I haven't decided on one yet and I don't know if that will fix my problems.
Any help is appreciated - I have a ton of magazines to read!

Any thoughts on this? I flashed last week and then today I can't use any apps. The can get to the internet but thats it. The wifi icon is showing connected but it is grey instead of the usual green. I need help bad.
Hi Friends,
Few days a go as I was watching youtube videos for around 45 minutes continuously through the youtube app. The streaming suddenly paused and never continued from that point. I tried other videos but it kept on buffering (the circle kept on spining and nothing happened, as noticed on the leds of wifi router it seemed youtube app is not using the net but when i search for more videos the thumbnail do showup normally).
To over come this issue i tried reflashing. This happened when i was on the new HyperDroid_v4.0 with Pongster's MattedBlack v4.0 Surgeons which is amazing for battery saving.
I then tried reflashing HyperDroid_v4.0 again after formatting /cache /system /data /sdcard /emmc which wiped everything, but still no avail.
Then i again tried reflashing DarkyROM2 XXKH3 BASE (2.3.4) formatting everything but still no luck at all.
I even tried these flashing after Factory data reset selecting Format USB storage as well .
When i do the flashing everything else seems to be working fine as usual except the youtube playback and android market doesn't download, like i said for the youtube app, everything like searching the apps, browsing through apps details works fine except it doesn't download at all. It shows as if it's downloading but it stays as is forever.
Very sorry if same question was posted before this as i couldn't find like it.
I have been trying to fix this for 2 days in a row but still no luck.
Has anyone come across this same issue.
Please help.
Thank you very much in advance..
Update:The problem was finally solved after again formatting /cache /system /data /sdcard /emmc and flashed stock ROM though Odin and then I installed DarkyROM tool and then flashed DarkyROM2_KI3_Base ROM.
I will soon jump to HyperDroid_v4.0 with Pongster's MattedBlack v4.0 Surgeons again as it has superb battery life.
I will be updating you guys if the same problem persist.
Thank you all
Hello everyone!
Although I am not using GS2 (I have a Galaxy Note), I chose to post here because I didn't want to create a new post and I believe this is not a device-specific issue (see below for why).
I have the exact same problem as OP (as far as I can see). When I got my note less than a week ago, everything was working great. Then, last Friday I noticed that I cannot download anything from the market. After choosing to download something (both paid or free), after clicking "accept & download" at the permission screen, the screen goes back to app screen and market shows the app as "downloading..." with working, yet empty, progress bar. Everything else using the internet works fine - browsing from different browsers, notifications, email etc. I even tried installing an alternative market app, and it would download/install apps no problem. Also, downloading straight .apk files works as well. Later that evening I also noticed youtube app doesn't work - just the "loading" circle keeps running, until it times out. Browsing/searching market/youtube works without a problem. I am using the stock ROM and it isn't even rooted. Later, following some suggestions from google searches on the problem, it turns out that downloads work when I disable network and let it use mobile internet. I also later found out that it works on other wifi networks, just not my home wifi (which used to work perfectly, with no configuration changes to the router).
Next day I also found out that my girlfriend's android (LG Optimus Me P350) has the same exact problem, therefor it is not a phone model specific problem.
Here is what I tried so far:
Factory reset - left me with no apps and no way to re-download them. The market download did work ONCE after the reset, but that was to download the update to the market itself, nothing else;
Clearing Download Manager data - worked for ONE download. At first it worked for one download every time, meaning, after clearing download manager data, I was able to download one app, after that it would go back to the problem. I could then clear data again, and it would again download one app. After about 5 apps downloaded this way, this solution won't work at all anymore;
Force closing/clearing data of market, gmail, talk (in combination with above step) - didn't work;
Signing out/in to gmail and/or talk - didn't work;
Changing google account in market - didn't work;
Stopping/starting download countless times - didn't work;
Switching wifi on/off - only starts downloading briefly when phone switches to 3G while wifi is off. As soon as it gets wifi connection back, the download stalls at the position it was until I switch wifi off again (so it can continue to use 3G);
Switching phone to airplane mode, off/on, then disabling airplane mode - didn't work;
Changing phone's DNS records with an app to OpenDNS - didn't work;
Updating router firmware - didn't work;
Resetting router firmware - didn't work;
Setting port triggering on router for port 5228 - didn't work;
Port forwarding to Note IP for same port - didn't work;
Disabling router firewall - didn't work;
My router is Linksys E1000.
I think that is all I tried. I have been trying to find a solution for the whole weekend, and nothing as far. Searching google makes me believe that many people have had the same problem. I have found many solutions, which don't work, or only work once. This problem is really, really irritating. Also, I have found out that for many people the problem seems to randomly disappear without doing anything after some time (days to months), sometimes coming back and sometimes not. I experienced this myself when after going to sleep, I was able to download one app in the morning with no tried "fixes" at that time. This also makes me believe that there are many "fake" solutions, which did work for some people, but not for others - quite possibly, while these people were "solving" the problem, it actually solved itself, yet because the person did something, he/she believes that was the solution. A notable example of this could be "google account 24-hour reset" where users experiencing the problem are suggested to log out of their google accounts everywhere and not use the account for anything for 24 hours. Seeing as this is possibly a problem somehow connected to another device, not just the phone itself, I did consider flashing DD-WRT on my router, but I wouldn't really want do do that since my router is not that powerful and with all the DD-WRT features my broadband speed gets capped at about 65Mbit/s. Still a lot, but I have a great internet connection and am able to get real speeds of about 90Mbit/s with stock router firmware.
If anyone has any ideas, please share Thank you in advance!
Just a quick reply - I contacted my apartment building network tech, and he said that they didn't do anything regarding the internet that day, but they did however do something to offer TV service to residents (edit: The TV network shares the same hardware as internet's). He said that it shouldn't have changed anything regarding internet, but he would look into it. A few hours later everything is working.
Of course, it could be one of those cases where the problem disappears with no apparent reason, but I guess they did something to fix it. So, if you are experiencing the same problem (market downloads not working and youtube app not playing videos), and you have tried everything else (preferably confirmed the problem persists on someone elses phone), I would suggest you start going up the chain to whoever is managing your network (after yourself). If at all possible, try getting wifi access through someone else who is using the same ISP/network - if the problem persists even when connected to another AP/Router, it's pretty sure the ISP or network is to blame.
Hope this helps someone, since I wasted a few days on this
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!

Try forgetting your wifi connection and restarting I had to do that to my tfp and it worked right after as for the market I have not seen this issue yet but Have you tired to clear data/cache for just the market app under settings?
Hi all,
I have a Galaxy Note 3 running KitKat and since yesterday I've been unable to load any webpage in any browser. It's as though my phone is unable to find the index page of directories or something.
Some examples of URLs and the errors:
www.google.com/ - "Got the error: Not Found while trying to obtain /
www.en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page - "Got the error: Not Found while trying to obtain /wiki/Main_Page
I typed those out as examples, probably wrong links.
I've tried in Chrome, default Internet browser and LastPass browser, same problem. It also happens when connecting via Wi-Fi or 4G so I'm pretty much unable to use the internet on my phone at this point.
Does anyone have any ideas? I also have an issue with Wi-Fi endless disconnects but I believe that's an issue with KitKat and/or TouchWiz. Thought I'd mention it here in case anyone has a solution for that either
Anyone? I can't use some of my apps either as they show 404 Some do work so I do have a connection.
Got the same problem last few days, using newest Chrome on LG G3 (stock bumped rom KK). Did an updated of AdBlock but turning it off doesn't help neither does reinstalling chrome. Tried Firefox but didn't help.
EDIT:
Reboot helped, after second try every website seems to open.

Did you spoof your MAC address on your router? I had a problem a few months ago when I changed my MAC address only parts of websites would open, but then not others. I was real confused until I changed my MAC back to default and everything worked. Some how I had managed to pick some MAC that conflicted with something in some way. I respoofed it with a similar MAC to the original and everything was fine. Hope that's all that's wrong here too. Cheers!

Not a problem, glad you got it fixed. :good:
I am the proud owner of a TF201 that has been sitting unused for over a year because the internet stopped working after working fine for years. My WiFi shows connected with 4 bars but the wifi icon stays grey, not blue. I have put many hours into trying to get this thing to work. I have gone through all the posts on all the forums regarding various reasons and solutions for the grey wifi icon. I have made all the suggested changes to my home wifi to no avail. I have the same problem when connecting to my phone hotspot or any other access point. I don't think it's the hardware and I don't think the problem is with the wifi source. It has to be software on the TF201. So I tried all the fixes for the Android configuration and nothing worked. So finally, in desperation, I did a Factory data reset. I also went into recovery and did a data wipe. So then I boot to a new Android 4.1.1 and enter setup. I can select and connect to wifi but the google login fails because, again, no Internet. So I skip the google login and I am left with naked Android with no Internet. Then I decided maybe I could fix it by flashing a new ROM. But before I can do that I need a custom recovery. But before I can install that I need to unlock and root my TF201. So I finally get the Asus unlock tool installed and run it. Only one small problem, it won't work unless it can verify my google account across the Internet which, of course, is broken. So at this point I'm at a loss. Unless you guys can help me I guess I could sell if for parts on Ebay. I would really appreciate it if anyone has any ideas.
You say you have tried everything without actually saying what you have tried but when I have encountered this in the past the date and time has been wrong. I know it sounds stupid but did you check this ?

Rather than stupid, it would have been brilliant if it only worked. I did try that already but thanks for the suggestion.
I didn't go into too much detail on what I've tried because, ultimately, I was wasting my time. The tablet is getting wifi. It is connected to wifi with 5 bars. The only problem is that they are grey not blue. I've read that blue means full two-way connection with google services and grey means no or partial communication with google. So I can go to the tablet now and select Settings, +Add account, Google, enter an account. It will say "this will take a moment" and then instantly comes back with "Couldn't sign in, Can't establish a reliable connection to the server." If I tell it to create a new Google account it asks for a "name"@gmail.com but rejects every name as "not available" no matter how random/long it is.
Nothing else appears to be wrong with this tablet. Its bone stock, date/time is set, wifi is connected.
Thanks to anyone that can help.

It's mad because what you are describing is the exact same errors that I had when the year was set wrong on my tablet. I also couldn't use browsers or anything because all the certificates were out of date.
I just had a quick google for your errors and the answers it brought up also said the date.

I did find another thread as well which mentions editing the hosts file so it might be worth you taking a look here and see if there is anything you haven't tried yet.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083702
I've found that people are fixing the Google sign-in problem by editing the hosts file and commenting out the address for google's servers. However, you need to be rooted to do this. So does anyone know how to root a TF201 without the ASUS unlock tool? If that's the only way then I have a chicken-and-egg problem with no solution.
Can you ping the tablet from another computer/phone in your house?
Have you tried putting in a static IP and DNS instead of DHCP?
