This problem started happening this evening for no reason.
Normally when I turn on Wi-Fi 3g turns off. But for some reason this evening when I turn it on the e or 3g is staying on even though I have full Wi-Fi signal( sitting next to it).
anyone any ideas how to fix this.

Maybe try wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache...
Are you on a custom rom?
Did you try a reboot?
You sure net trough wifi was not off?

Activate wifi and go to http://www.hostip.info/ from the phone to see what network interface the phone uses, if it's the 3G one it's probably the phone having problem detecting internet through the wireless router for some reason, if it's the wifi something is messed up im afraid.
Not sure where in the rom it's defined to shut it off when wifi is detected.
hello thr xda i am a newbie here and have just rooted my mini and flashed emanon rom v7 and am facing wifi issues in my mini now...
wifi is not being detected but wifi is on..
sorry if my question is stupid...
what you want to do, connect to data through on mobile through wifi or want to give your data connection to another wifi device or want to enable ad-hoc wifi

Wifi Issue
I am having a issue where if the wifi is restarted a second time(using toggle buttons in status bar)...the phone reboots or if its done through the wifi settings page it shows 'error' under the wifi text(instead of 'turning on')......what can be the problem...plz help.me solve this....Thanks!!
I'm wondering if anyone running either cm 10 or Pac roms is having issues after a few weeks, of wifi attempting to connect then saying saved and doing that over and over again and not connecting. I know other people not necessarily using this phone have had this issue before but, I can't seem to find any solutions to the problem. I am currently running Pac all in one Rom and it was working great until today but, I have had these issues on cm 10 before and the only thing that seems to fix is to flash a new Rom and I like this one and don't want to re-flash.

I always get this issue on custom ROMs

I've been having this issue as well, again and again.. I've had about a 50/50 success rate with dirty flashing. Anyway, I believe the problem has something to do with the dhcp assigned ip addresses from the router. It's something on the phone side of it because changing dhcp settings,lease times etc., on the router have no effect. When you lose WiFi and it goes into that loop and won't connect, go into WiFi settings, and forget your network. Then select your network again and enable the advanced settings. Change from dhcp to static and then assign yourself a local IP. I have a Linksys router so I entered 192.168.1.8 . so I believe a netgear router would be 192.168.2.?? , the ?? or 8 being whatever is unused on your network. If you haven't already, enter your password and connect. I connected immediately after that. I understand this isn't really a "fix" because won't help you when trying to connect to networks that you can't assign your own IP, like say Starbucks or somewhere.. But hopefully this may point someone who knows more about this stuff in the right direction to actually fix whatever is off in the phone. Drivers maybe? Hope this helps!

Thank you for the explanation I tried a dirty flash and that solves it for about 12 hours. I am getting faster at flashing and restoring everything and am now flashing a new Rom every couple of days so it's not that big of a deal I'll just take it as a sign I should try a new Rom I'm now running the unofficial aokp Rom and I'm liking it next time it happens I'll just try another. Thanks for all the help glad to know the issue isn't because I've done something wrong.

Sadly it doesn't work for clear wireless modems/routers.

Is there anyway to fix this issue yet?
@TTLayland said exactly what I'd say...static IP. I'll add the the Devs are working on updated WiFi drivers for the kernel. When that's ready hopefully that'll work for ya'll. I haven't had any WiFi issues for the past few weeks. Connected to my House, McD's, and the hospital.
Post the actual make & model of your router and I/we'll see what can be found for it.
Also, try setting the phone to 2.4 Ghz only...my old router was 2.4ghz and the auto setting would randomly kick me. New router broadcasts in both 5ghz and 2.4ghz, I connect to the 5ghz one and use auto without issue.

a lot of the times I have to log into my router and turn the security completely off and then log on with my phone get a connection and then log back into my router turn the security back on and then I'm good to go.
Kinda like the flashing back to ICS to get a GPS lock to work on custom jb ROM's

Ok, I didn't realize Devs were working on it. I have statics set for my home, but being a Network Admin I travel to many different networks and because of the way our network transverses settinig an ip is not an option as the same SSID is used for about 95 different sites. So DHCP is a must.
I just thought it was strange that the Carbon rom I am using was working for about 2 weeks correctly then stopped connecting, sometimes a reboot will get it to connect.
Thanks.
I wish it would work I just gave up on wifi on ahd if using custom rom

Hi guys. ..I am using CM with locked bootloader along with stock .266 kernel. My WiFi range is very good, but often my WiFi gets disconnected.. WiFi menu is shows that there is enough signal, but still it is not connecting . If I leave the phone idle for 5 minutes, it automatically reconnects..
What is the solution for this problem?

Do you experience every now and then that your phone is connected to Wi-Fi, but unable to connect to the internet? My temporary solution is disabling then enable WiFi again, then it works. This never happened on my s3 before.

That happened to me a few times the first day I had the phone. I wasn't sure if it was my router or what. But it never happened again. It could also be that I turned wifi calling off right after that so not sure if it was related or just a one time blip. If you have wifi calling on, turn it off and see if it happens again.
