hi all. i am on android 6.0.1 build 23.5.A.1.291. My problem is that my wifi keeps resetting and searching. i am traveling so its not my personal router that is an issue. my tablet and laptop connect to the same routers here without issue but my phone tries to connect various open connections but immediately resets all connections and starts searching for them again. occasionally it connects for a second. the same issue occurs if is set my tablet as a hotspot so i doubt it is related to the available connections. also for some reason i don't seem to have any advanced options anymore to tell the phone to sop scanning. Any help would be much appreciated. so far I tried turning airplane mode on and off as it seems have started at the airport, reset all network connections , general powering down and up etc. nothing seems to work.
hey, i know this post is quite old yet i only found it now facing exactly the same issue. it all started at my parents when phone was suddenly not able to connect (exclamation mark on wifi icon in status bar). i restarted router but it did not help. when i came home i faced the same issue. both routers are different, different provider, etc. before the weekend all worked fine so not really sure what happened. not the phone (z3c) keeps searching for wifi, displays the list for a few secs and searches again.
i tried what was suggested in other topics, like here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/help/wifi-issues-z3c-marshmallow-fix-t3390859
or
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/help/wifi-randomly-disconnecting-575-t3435244
but nothing helped. now considering to re-flash the latest firmware. trying my luck here before i do so.
current sw on 23.5.A.1.291
update:
1) i tried to repair the phone using Sony Companion .. did not help
2) flashed it with the latest sw .. did not help
in both cases sw version was D5803_23.5.A.1.291_1288-5411_R12D. when phone starts for the first time it shows wifi networks. but just for a while, that it starts "searching for wifi networks..". when i select my wifi network, fill in the password and click connect it says "failed to connect to network". i can already see on the background that the phone is again searching for wifi networks. if i try to connect at the right moment network is saved. but then it does not connect. or sometimes it does but "checking connection" takes ages and wifi symbol in top bar keeps appearing and disappearing. at the end it shows error message "could not connect to internet".
what could be the problem?

I have a Tilt with the stock AT&T ROM and HardSPL. I keep the HSDPA data on all the time and connect to my wireless access point while at home.
I understand and am fine with wifi disconnecting in sleep mode - email still checks using HSDPA. What normally happens is when I power the Tilt back from sleep the WiFi connects back to my access point.
I've noticed more than a few times however that coming out of sleep WiFi doesn't even attempt to reconnect to the access point. It is on in Comm Manager and appears to be associated with my AP, but checking the IP online shows an AT&T IP addr, not my CATV provider.
The only way to get back on WiFi is to shut off the phone (or reset). I don't want to keep WiFi on while in standby, I just want it to reconnect when it should.
Has anyone seen this behaviour?
Cheers,
Todd
Wifi access point problem
I had a problem where suddenly after months of use with my home wifi router, it suddenly would not connect with the router anymore. Would show that it was trying to connect, and then would suddenly not connect and try another router on the list.
I tried reseting and everything. Tried re-entering the password for my router as I thought that was the problem. finally the only fix i found to work was to actually delete the access point from the phone... then reset and then let it find it all over again from scratch. And miraculously that time it worked.
I know this is not exactly your problem, but hope it helps.
I will try that and see what happens. It seems whatever sub-routine that turns the wifi on isn't running at times and doesn't even attempt to search.
All of a sudden beginning yesterday my captivate can no longer connect to the wifi network at work. Other users can connect to the network fine and I'm able to see the network from my phone and connect to other networks just fine but when I try to connect to the work network it just shows connecting with the round circle containing 2 curved arrows and then disconnected, scanning, and connecting again.
I have stock 2.3.5 and have tried wifi fixing apps and power cycling without success... Basically I'm stuck at the point of a hard reset unless anyone has any other suggestions for why I'm unable to access one specific wifi channel all of a sudden...
Thanks!
I meet wifi problem like yours, cause of the poor network switcher. After switcher reboot, phone can connect it.
Try Airplane mode on the phone, or switching WiFi on and off. Rebooting router helps too - but probably not an option at work.
It's the router/access point. Reboot that and all is good.
Hi -
My wifi at home is being displayed, but it is always stuck at Connecting... How do I fix this?
SO here's what happened - I accidentally turned off the wifi router at my home and then turned it back on again. After that, the phone simply refuses to connect to it. I'm able to see that the wifi is available, but upon trying to connect to it a million times, it simply goes from Authentication --> connecting --> saved. This keeps repeating. I've had the same results for the stock, Pure Shamu and Minimus. My nexus 5 running minimus and my Gnex running 4.4.4 PA have absolutely no issues, so it's got nothing to do with the router itself.
I rolled back to my previous backup of the stock rom and wifi mysteriously started working. Out of curiosity, I turned off the router again just to see if it happens again, and it did. Is this an actual bug floating around? Or is something messed up with my phone?
Also, how the heck do I disable the "Avoid poor internet connection" option? I find it nowhere!
Hi, I'm new here so forgive me if I do something wrong^^
First of all, I have a Moto G 2014, Dual Sim which is running on 5.1.1, to be more specific, this ROM. I was using this ROM for about 4 months already so that shouldn't be the issue. My problem is that after my phone connects to the internet, usually using H+. The connection to the internet is working perfectly fine, but after a while of not using the phone it loses the connection. It still tells me that it got a strong H+ connection, but nothing (browser, apps, anything) is able to connect to the internet. Enabling & disabling airplane mode usually fixes the problem. From time to time it also happens, usually when I lost some sort of wifi connection (regardless if I disabled wifi or I got out of range) it happens that it shows full connectivity but with an exclamation mark. This only goes away if I reboot or enable & disable airplane mode again.
Is this issue known/is there any solution to
I have been experiencing the exact same thing as of lately. I thought it was a byproduct of downgrading from (Stock) Marshmallow to (Stock) Lollipop (yes! it's happening even on stock ROM) where at times the WiFi losses connectivity when the phone had been sleeping for awhile...even though I have the "Keep WiFi on during sleep" option on under WiFi's advanced settings. I had no idea that it also happens with data connections ! ...as I don't use it (too expensive for me), now I'm uncertain what could be the cause. I can see how this would be an inconvenience if you use a lot of social media apps as I sometimes do not get my WhatsApp messages when this happens and sometimes I don't even receive my Hangouts messages until I open the app manually.
It's strange, at times when my phone sleeps for awhile and it losses connectivity and I wake it, it will reconnect just fine and other times it just goes into this state where it reconnects with full signal strength but with an exclamation mark next to the WiFi icon in the notification bar. When this happens, no matter what I try it stays in this state, I tried turning off WiFi and turning it back on, also forgetting the network and entering the info and reconnecting to it but none of that works. I didn't know that turning on and off airplane mode can help....I'll have to try that one, rebooting the phone was the only solution I found which is just inconvenient and somewhat annoying.
I too, am interested in a proper solution. I don't know why the phone ignores the "Keep WiFi on during sleep" option or why at times it connects but have not internet access! It should be noted that it's not a problem with the network, It's not due to an incorrect password or anything like that as I am the one that administers those things and when it happens other WiFi devices such as my Tablet PC, Laptop etc can connect and access the internet just fine and it only happens sometimes on the phone (Moto G 2014). This doesn't seem to happen in Marshmallow...but I hate Marshmallow and I can't remember having this issue on Lollipop post Marshmallow update (how I wish I had never tried out Marshmallow!!!), which is why I thought it was related to downgrading, .......did you downgrade ?
Hi, my phone tells me to "Log in WiFi Network", and constantly losses connection..
Hello everyone, I have a problem with my Huawei Ascend P7, it connects perfectly to WiFi, but I have several problems related to this
Repeatedly asks me to "Log in WiFi network" (Home used router)
Certainly, it connects to the internet, but only for a few moments, the speed of the connection goes down until it is constantly lost (for long periods of time).
Only happens in my WiFi.
Important facts:
This problem does not happen when I connect to a HotSpot, or a public network (which asks me to login)
My router works perfectly.
Update the ROM (officially) to Lollipop 5.1.1
"Weird" things that happen in this case
The notification of "start session in wifi network" appears for a few seconds, and then disappears.
Once I was able to open the notification, I could even "log in" to my Wi-Fi network with Google Sites, but nothing happened
The problem suddenly appeared, I do not know when it happened.
I tried:
Change to static IP.
Check the "Wireless" section of my router
Reset my phone.
Wipe data
I don't know if this is a hardware problem, or it may be the kernel or something like that...
I hope to find help to solve this problem, and I'm very worried because this is the only phone that I will have for a long time (that's why I updated it)
Of course, thank you.
When u start use 5.1.1 ?
