According to various posts on the Internet it seems that I am not the only one who has problems with networks. Now, every android phone normally has in settings two options:
1. Factory reset
2. Network settings reset
I don't find the second point on my Realme X2 pro. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Hi all - Just got a diamond 2 from ebay . I can get everything connected no problems through wifi however with the wifi off nothing connects phone works sms works sim is showing an HSDPA connection and o2 has changed to 3g o2 . Is there any settings i have missed to connect to the internet any other way except wifi.
Tried so far all report connection error.
Weather widget
Live messenger
data connection - won't turn on
Phone is on o2 in UK.
Other thing to mention is i left this sim in the phone overnight as my old number was being transferred to it have tried a soft reset as well.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Finally managed to find some settings hidden under about 15 different layers to change the gprs settings and connect to everything else. No idea where they are now so i'm afraid i can't help future users coming into this post but if i reflash with a different rom no doubt i will be tearing my hair out to enter them again and when i find them this time i will write them down.
(I'm doing this from memory so forgive me if I have left something out.)
Generally if you go to Settings\Connections\Connections and I believe you go to the advanced? tab, you should see 2 connections settings, set both to internet.
Thanks for the reply Bruce. Couldn't find it in the ROM i'm using so instead i found another way . Entered here incase anyone else comes up with the same problem.
1: goto settings>wireless controls - this also works if you go to weather and let it try to update over data.
2: click data connection - it will try to connect and fail.
3: on the failure screen click settings
4: on the settings tab adjust the internet settings for your provider in my case o2 active settings
5: click advanced and from there you can edit the details as you wish..
Hope that helps someone else out there and again thanks for the reply Bruce
So, I knew updating to Marshmallow 6.0.1 would do this, and, I was purposely holding off until I could find an answer on how to restore the Data Toggle option.
But, AT&T and or Samsung are trying to be like M$, and low and behold, they ninja-updated my phone without my explicit agreement........
SO..... Now I'm stuck with this crap situation of not having a Data Toggle option.
Anyways, Now I noticed the following behavior:
When I have WIFI on, I then turn it off.
Doing this should automatically kick in my mobile provider data service.
Yet, it takes forever to kick in. Up to 10minutes!
There's like not way to force it to be enabled instantly once I disable WIFI.
I reset my network settings and still has the same issue.
It seems for some reason the phone just doesn't want to immediately initiate attempting to connect to my mobile network after I disable WIFI.
Anyone else notice this? and or can provide some pointers to get that data toggle back?
Just an additional note:
Anyways, there isn't any pattern I can find that determines why the phone won't try to initiate the mobile network immediately after WIFI is turned off.
This doesn't ALWAYS happen.
(I do know it never was an issue when I had the Data Toggle option prior to the Marshmallow update)
Well, At this point, I've tried this a few times and it works. If the Mobile Network doesn't kick in:
Go to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names (( Then choose your access point (Which is your APN to the mobile carrier) (Yes, it is already selected, but choose it anyways) ))
Once I do that and back out of the settings the mobile network kicks in.
*hands in the air on this*..

Factory reset, install Samsung good lock. Problems solved.
Sucks that the mobile data toggle switch doesnt work, this is the best alternative I've found. Bonus is that stupid warning about turning data off doesn't pop up anymore with the good lock
Why do you have to do the factory reset?

I am unable to find Good Lock on Galaxy store! :\
I pulled down the Good Lock apk from the apk mirror site, but, the data toggle STILL didn't work.
At least half the time, I have to to this in order to get the Mobile Data reconnected..:
Go to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names (( Then choose your access point (Which is your APN to the mobile carrier) (Yes, it is already selected, but choose it anyways) ))
This is extremely annoying. Can anyone else verify?

Simple, go to the USAGE MANAGER app, there is data toggle switch in it.

OK...... Figured this out.
Firstly, I had Multiple APN set up on the phone. I don't know why, but they ended up being there.
However, I only had selected the proper APN out of all of those for the Mobile Data.
The phone at this point didn't care if it was selected, and when switching off my WIFI, the Mobile Data wouldn't come on, and I had to do the following:
Go to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > Choose THE ALREADY CHOSE proper APN and exit out of settings
After this, the Mobile Data would come on...
SO WHAT I DID:
I removed all APNs that were defined in the 'Access Point Names' section, keeping only ONE APN (The proper one).
After this, the phone would switch on Mobile Data automatically.
SO.... In Conclusion, it looks like this build won't switch to the Mobile Data of a selected APN if multiple APNs are defined in the 'Access Point Names' section...

I've found thru the years that when upgrading to major OS changes, factory resetting helps prevent a plethora of issues. I've rarely ever had any issues with updates across all OS systems (Windows, MacOSX, BlackBerry, Android) because I factory reset. I wouldn't be able to tell you how many posts I've seen across all OSs where a factory reset fixed the problems. To prevent the hassle and headache, I just factory reset. Backing up my messages/phone logs is really the only thing I have to do; all my pictures are automatically backed up to Google Photos and my WD MyCloud, everything else syncs/connects/updates in the cloud (GDrive, GNotes, GMail, etc...) so as soon as I login I'm back to 95%. Downloaded SMS Backup and Restore (Play Store) and my messages/phone logs were restored in a couple min. Setup the APN for mobile data and I'm back to 100%. From there it's just setting up Nova, changing the factory theme, and reorganizing my icons into folders.
Hi guys,
I recently bought a Oneplus 3t and everything was working fine.
But recently when I tried to connect my Wifi at work it keeps connected, but I cant browse the internet. There was a login page where I had to enter my email address, but it doesnt show up anymore when I connect to the Wifi.
I have clean installed LineageOS and then back to stock rom via ADB sideload , but still the same thing is happening. All other devices can connect to the Wifi, but when I connect my phone, I cant browse the internet. I have tried to change the IP address and DNS server as well.
When I open chrome and go to google.com it says "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET"
What does it shows in wifi settings? Do you have two lines in IP adress?

Hi
Try to reset your mobile wifi setting or wifi router setting.

I have downgraded OOS 4.0.3 to 3.5.4 but still the problem persists. I do not have access to the router.
Well do what you can to figure out if it's the phone or the network
Use different devices, see if the network is up
See if the device will connect to a different network
Easiest way to narrow it down if you can
If it is the phone...cycle power, reset network settings, factory reset in that order. Or something similar

When you say cycle power, what do mean by that? And for the factory reset, should I do it through phone's setting menu and completely wipe data as well?

So as a general rule you start with options that won't lose you any data you want.
Then you go forward towards more "extreme" steps
So factory reset is basically the laymens ultimate step, and just like you described it, this comes last. Only do this if you can't connect to multiple networks and have backed up your data properly (if you don't care about your data you can do it right now tho)
Power cycling = turning device on and off, this is your first step
Next you're going to reset the network settings
Then if that doesn't work you can wipe all the data from settings as you described, but I wouldn't recommend doing that until you're sure it's your phone and not your network. Most of the time if you backup the data completely there is a possibility your'e going to restore the glitch with the good data.
Good luck

I have tried to completely wipe off all data from the phone, flashed Resurrection Remix, LineageOS and OOS 3.5.4, but I'm still having the same problem. The WiFi works for everybody else, but when I connect it shows that "Connected, no internet". It's a public WiFi and a login page needs to show, but it just asks that there is not internet and whether I'd like to stay connected. When I first got the phone it worked fine, and even showed the login page.
According to various posts on the Internet it seems that I am not the only one who has problems with networks. Now, every android phone normally has in settings two options:

I don't find the second point on my Realme X2 pro. Can anyone help? Normally this point was called network & Internet.
Thanks!
Hello,
The WiFi on the phone just stopped working ~2 months after a factory reset. It was simply running stock (Android 7.0 with all the Huawei crap) and was barely used, no SIM or anything. It still connects to the network, reporting an excellent connection and even exchanging a few bytes of data every so often, but trying to load anything up like a web page simply reports there isn't an internet connection. Every other device on the network works flawlessly.
I tried resetting network settings; then all settings; messing with DNS settings; connecting to a different band of the network; opening up the phone and checking the antenna... And that's where my surface knowledge stops. I'd wipe the cache partition (?) through the EMUI recovery (Vol Up + Power), but whoever designed the Huawei Recovery is......... As it requires an update before I can even do any basic functions on my phone and well, I can't update because I can't get WiFi to work.
I'm not keen on trying to unlock this device and load any ROMs or anything, I'd simply like to sort the WiFi issue out. But need be I could. Any and all help in troubleshooting this is welcome.
Cheers
