Hey, in the last few weeks I've run into a very annoying bug on my phone. Wi-fi turns itself off after about 2 minutes. It doesn't actually "turn itself off" in the phone - and by that I mean that the wifi icon is still there, and I can see the signal strength, but the internet won't work.
In order to fix it, I have to turn the wifi off and then on again.
I've tried using the Wifi Fixer application, but it doesn't help. It can't seem to detect when I lose my internet connection.
I've also troubleshooted it, checking that it occurs on different routers/types of networks.
I'm sure it's a problem with my phone, but I dont really want to reformat my phone until Froyo comes (since I don't want to have to install all my apps twice).
Is there any solution to this? ;z
I'm on stock rom, JF3, with OCLF.
I have the same problem with my phone. My Wi-Fi at home works just fine, but when I go to my brother's house, I seem to occasionally lose internet connection even though it shows that it's still connected to the Wi-Fi. I have stock Bell ROM with OCLF by RyanZA. Oh, and to fix it I simply turn Wi-Fi off, and then on, and it starts working again.
Bump :x
Anyone have a solution?
Hi everyone,
So recently I flashed venom 9.0.0 onto my phone from venom 7.0.1 but after flashing the rom, there were some issues with the wifi. At first, it would connect for a few minutes then disconnect. I would then have to restart the phone and it would work for a bit again. Later on, it would connect for a few minutes, disconnect from the wifi (but I could still see the SSID in the wifi menu) and would require me to go to wifi settings-> advanced-> toggle scanning always available-> turn wifi off/on (or sometimes a reboot) and it would work for a little while again. I found that switching the WiFi frequency band to 2.4ghz helped solve the issue temporarily.
However, just yesterday, the wifi stopped working completely and would be stuck turning on for half a minute, then display and 'error' in the settings menu.
I have already tried to reflash the rom (wiping system, cache, dalvik cache) and I have also tried flashing boot.img, none of which helped fix the issue.
If anyone knows of a way to fix this or even a potential fix, I would greatly appreciate your help
Thanks!

(5.1.1) I was on wifi at home. I headed out and have been on mobile data for most of the day. I went for a coffee and my wifi won't work. Tried turning the phone off and airplane mode.
When I click Wifi it says it's on with no networks available. I click More settings and it says Turning Wifi on, but doesn't.
I'd rather not reset the phone, any ideas? Thanks.
yea, reboot your phone.

I had that symptom once, while waiting in a doctor's office. Shutting down and booting back up solved it, but this was a few OTA builds ago (i.e., I'm currently stock, lazy me).
Perhaps delete/forget your current WiFi connections and retry?

My connections don't even show up. I'm gonna let the battery run flat and then try... if not, then reset phone.
I let my battery die, my phone turned itself off after about 4% remaining. 10 hours later and when you hit the power button , it shows the low battery warning, but won't turn on.
So, the battery wasn't completely dead. I needed my phone, I plug it in to charge... And WiFi!!!!!!
Just updated to lmy48m... no wifi again. YAY!!! <_<
I'm having this exact problem w/ my WiFi, and I'm now suddenly getting the "!" appearing ever since updating to LMY48M.
i've been having this problem with build LYZ28J & LYZ28K randomly wifi would stop working. i'd reboot my phone and it would work again then it stoped, so i called Tmo got a replacement this time it took a few days and happened again this time i called Google and they called Motorola they had me wipe cache while i was on build LYZ28J and it worked... then i got the LYZ28K update then 3 days later this morning wifi stoped working again. So i figured doing a cache wipe would work again, but it didn't so i backed up everything and booted into recovery and wiped the phone thinking it would work but that did... still shows Wi-Fi toggle off and says turning on Wi-Fi. Called Tmo again they told me to take it to astore anfd get it diagnosed but im going to call google and see whats up. anyone have any luck getting this fixed ?
I'm also having this problem. Stock 5.1.1
Well I get my replacement phone today let's see if this issue happens I'm going to set it up as a new device.
I had the same problem. I've had pretty terrific success disabling Google Connectivity Service, which I think is somehow related to Project Fi. I went into apps, force stop, disable. Since then, I haven't had to reboot my phone. Before that, I was rebooting, toggling airplane mode, etc.
It's not 100% better though. I have had to toggle airplane a few times. But it's been much less frequent than before.
Suddenly happened today, probably the second time ever. No WiFi saved networks, couldn't locate signals, etc.
Rebooted the phone, everything fine again.
Odd.

I can not connect at all to my work's wifi where I have to enter my AD username and password, just can't connect. It worked mostly fine before Andorid 6.0
It is flaky on regular WPA2 wifi too at home, sometimes have to toggle the wifi or even reboot.
Wifi on the Nexus with Android 6.0 is poor to junk basically.
Anyone having problems with WiFi on stock ROM lately? Every so often the WiFi shuts off completely and can't be enabled again until restarting the watch. I have tried manually switching it back on in Settings but it remains stuck in Off mode. Factory reset it, cleared the Android Wear app and everything but it still gets this problem. It was perfectly fine for about a month or two after the WiFi update was pushed.

Happens on occasion to me too, but no idea why.

Same issue here.
I have a similar problem with trying to keep WIFI on. I have to turn off Bluetooth using the Advanced Settings app (root not required) to make WIFI connect. If you don't want to use the app, try turning off bluetooth on your phone to see if WIFI will connect. I think the watch prioritizes bluetooth connection.

Edit: I turned off bluetooth on my phone and the watch's WIFI connection stays on.
hi,
i installed cm11 and cm12 on my Motorola droid 4 and in both i have the same problem, when i use the wifi sometimes the internet stops in the mobile but the wifi is still connected, when i turn the wifi off and on again it come back. i don't have this issue with cm13 but android 6 is heavy on my mobile. i tried some solutions like delete /data/misc/wifi files and reboot, change wifi advance settings, nothing works.
when i download my apps from the store randomly the internet stops but the wifi keep connected and sometime it come back by it self, but mostly i have to turn on and of the wifi or reconnect again to the network.
also i make factory reset before install the rom, i used these roms (cm-11-20150201-NIGHTLY-maserati.zip, cm-11-20150901-SNAPSHOT-XNG3CAO3G0-maserati.zip and cm-12.1-20160120-NIGHTLY-maserati.zip)
is there any solution for this issue? please help.
