Hello XDA community. Im having a weird issue with my wifi antenna wich doesn´t dettect ALMOST any network (at least not mine). Sometimes when Im at the street, some open wifis are shown, or some other closed also but never mine. I have tried everything, from going from 4.4.4 to 5.1. Im at Lollipop now, no issues at all except that the Wifi seems not working. Everything started after we rebooted Modem, all other devices connected except mine. Im contacting you in order to know if there is some firmware I can flash for the wifi antenna to see if that fix the problem.
Thanks so much in advance :highfive:
EDIT: The only thread I have found related to this issue is this from Android Open Source Project, where they suggest to use a console to diagnostic the wifi driver: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1124 The thing is that i dont know i im using well the commands they sugest or maybe someone may have the right walk through to start from scratches so I can make an accurate diagnostic. Or maaaybe there is a way to flash the wifi drivers or modem??? thanks guys
My phone suddenly won't turn on wifi. It doesn't show any near wifi available and there is no Mac address. I have tried everything, factory reset, clean the cache, repaired through pc companion, and nothing. Phone without wifi is useless. Please help If anyone solved this problem

I have look everywhere but seems like is no solution for it. I'm not sure if flash with custom room would be a way. It might be a hardware problem. I can't sent my to Sony because there is not warranty anymore.

Ok, my warranty expired too! I also tried software repair and still not working and i now see that Bluetooth also is not working.
Hey guys. I fixed this on my phone about a month ago. So far no one has commented if it has helped them or not, but here is my post again. Let me know if it helps.
I had this problem on my Z3c for a while (as well as no wifi or bluetooth). My device is well out of warranty. I received a RMA number last week to send it in in hopes that it would be an affordable fix. I was getting it ready to send out today and decided to try a couple more things.
As others have said, I went in to the diagnostics and test the WiFi (passed) Bluetooth (passed) and GPS (failed). I then decided to test WiFi and Bluetooth a couple more times to see if it would eventually fail. It never did. After that, I went to turn WiFi on manually and to my suprise.... it turned on! Bluetooth and GPS were also magically working.
Before this I had tried numerous factory resets, diferent android versions, different roms (without unlocking the bootloader) with no success. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but hopefully it can work for some of you!

I have exactly the same problem but only one thing is different that my Bluetooth is working. There only problem is wifi. I belive that is no hardware problem. There must be some kind of glitch in software where you accidentally doing this things jumped over. I have tried your tip. No success. Im going to do this every day to see if I have luck. My Bluetooth and wifi passing test every time GPS is failing.

Tell me if you fixed it. I'm still having no luck.
Yes, please do post back your results. I'm not sure if what I did was a fluke of what, but I was shocked when I saw my WiFi turn on. Almost every other post I have seen about this either stops getting replies or the OP sent it in for repair numerous times.

I have done exactly the same things like you described. No luck. Strange my Bluetooth is working only wifi can't be switch on. GPS is failing on test like yours. What has the GPS to do with wifi? I don't know if there is any connection.

I forgot to mention I was on the latest factory lollipop image. I'm not sure what you are on. Are both WiFi and Bluetooth passing the tests?
I'm not sure if they are connected or not.

This is no solution. There is not problem with my router. I have done it many times anyway. There is problem to find any wifi point.
Nobody?

When I was trying to root, I ended up using KingRoot and replacing it with SuperUser afterwards. None of the other methods seemed to work for me.
Ok. I have rooted my phone with giefroot. Very simple. You only follow the guide. But now I have rooted phone and gone to to root Explorer and can't find the file I should delete.

Sorry, I can't help with that. I don't see it on my phone either. I have no idea what that folder is or what it does either.
F*ck, I have same problem, wifi won't turn on. Few times after phone was turned off for long time it worked but mostly just stuck. Bluetooth works so can I be sure it's not a hardware problem?
Dear Community,
I would like to call for your kind help because I have got completely lost considering an issue that I have faced. Suddenly the wifi and bluetooth stopped working under Android on my tablet. Everything is factory standard, I haven't modified anything and even applied factory reset from the Android menu and hard reset from recovery mode. No change.
Networks are visible but it stops with the message "Connecting" and if I set a fixed IP, it connects but no data is transmitted. In case of bluetooth, I'm unable to enable it.
It is a strange issue because it works OK under Windows 10 that gets all the regular updates. I started to experiment with old wifi and bluetooth drivers to see if there was any conflict with drivers but I didn't manage to learn anything by that.
I am completely confused because I have had this tablet for a year and it suddenly started to have this problem. I thought the reset would solve it and was stunned to see that it didn't.
Would you please kind and try to help me out with some advice?
Any feedback would be much appreciated!
Kind regards,
Viktor
What's your model ?

Hello everyone,
So I've been having some troubles with Bluetooth on two devices running nougat, and I haven't really found any good resolutions.
I've been practicing app development lately and was originally Bluetoothing the apk to my phones to test out (email or cord has been the obvious solution but I get obsessive and wanted to figure out why bt would not work). Weird thing is it was working fine for a couple attempts then it would not work. Laptop is an msi apache, it will connect and transfer to other devices running marshmallow and cyanogenmod no problem. But my s6 and note 5 on nougat will not work. It will attempt to send, time out and say device disconnected AND THEN I'll get the prompt on my phone asking to accept the file, but of course it's already disconnected.
Tried clearing cache, resetting network connections, disabling Wi-Fi, re pairing devices on the phones.
On my laptop I changed the device type from 128bit encryption to 40-58 or what ever it was.
Repaired, restarted, tried changing support services to a local service login type, reinstalled the bt driver... I'm assuming it's the phone but just wanted to list a couple things I tried.
Any ideas or just an android 7.0 issue?
Thanks.
Edit- first post and I put it in the wrong section, sorry about that! Should be in qa
What rom are you using? Try another perhaps, I've had lots of issues with Bluetooth over the years due to buggy roms.
Just installed latest firmware (ERC1) on my Note 5 SM-N920T and bt don't work plz help. Just came off a wipe ESF lost IMEI LOST ALL carrier signal no sim card detected. Finally got it back and no bluetooh.
Something similar happens to me

Something similar happens to me I installed the ERC1 in my note5 N920T, the wifi does not work well, and the bluethooth either. sorry for my English
Seeing this issue on both my unlocked x4 running latest build (retus - PWWS27.1.3) and my fiance's Android One variant (running latest I assure you, can't get the info from her atm) where our phones will drop from the wifi in the house, and then immediately reconnect as if nothing happened.
Running a Netgear AC2350 r7500v2 with latest firmware (V1.0.3.26) through Verizon FIOS.
A lot of the reports and issues I'm reading about on other sites sound a lot like what the Pixel devices are going through, albeit they seem to be a little more centered around mesh networks, of which I don't have in use.
So pretty much, anyone else having weird issues relating to wifi on 8.0? If it's possible to go back to 7.1 I might give that a shot just to see if it's for sure an Oreo problem or not.
I had the same issue. I had to disable IPv6. I also got the phone replaced, the replacement does the same thing if IPv6 is enabled.
IPV6 on the router end you mean?
**UPDATE** Just checked, not enabled through my router.

Yes on the router. Before I upgraded the replacement, I think the WiFi was working fine. Something might be wrong with the Oreo update.
If you contact Motorola, they will replace it, my replacement didn't come with Oreo.
Motorola knows there's issues with the WiFi, but don't seem to care much. Not just the X4, if you search Google, you'll find some of their other phones with WiFi issues too.

Yuuuuuuup. Been finding a lot of people with the same problems. Instead of digging up old threads, figured it'd be worthwhile to start one here to bring more attention to the problem.
Now to find out if it's possible to get nougat back on...
