I installed android VaniljEclair RLS11 build to my SD card on my tilt and it was working great, however recently it keeps going into airplane mode and I can't get any reception despite the fact that if i revert back to windows mobile i can get reception to my ATT carrier. Anyone know how to fix this issue? It seems like when i tried to change my caller ID settings from the carrier, it caused this problem. Now i can't even receive or make a call. Please help!!!!
Oh and i keep pressing airplane mode to get out and it keeps activating it again. Dunno wth is going on.....
I just had the same problem yesterday. I just rebooted with the same rom and it fixed itself. What Radio are you using?
yeah i did multiple reboots and it didn't help however today randomly its working again. sucks not to have a working phone for a few days.
Hi
I got a used galaxy S3 for cheap, but wifi was not working on it. Turns out it was the antenna cable inside the phone, so I replaced that part, but it still didnt work. I downgraded the software from 4.1.1 to 4.0.4 (via ODIN), and wifi worked, so I left the phone alone for a few hours. Then I started using the phone and downloaded a few apps then all of a sudden wifi stopped working, and the phone won't connect anymore. Tried rebooting, reflashing, going to *#0011# and turned off wifi power saving mode, but still didnt work. WHen I enable wifi or bluetooth, the I/O switch gets greyed out and it just says "Turning On..." . Anyone know what the issue is? Could it be a hardware problem (wouldnt think so because it worked for a bit).
thanks!
No one has experienced this problem on their phones?

Kernel issue. WiFi drives are built into the kernel. Flash anoher stock kernel if your on stock or flash aosp kernel if not on stock

I'm experiencing similar trouble with my s3 the wifi never turns on. I've only started having this issue since I got a factory reset done because of some other trouble and now I'm sick with this new issue.
Did you find anyway to fix it yet. 923
I'm running the stock 4.1.2 on a GT-N7100. Used to work fine, now trying to enable wifi hotspot tethering but I get nothing. Basically I tap the I/O button while it's green and it grays out for a bit then returns to O. It won't turn on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
update: even regular wifi doesn't work, stuck on trying to activate. I don't recall changing anything between today and yesterday. Tried rebooting obviously still nothing.
It worked for a while then stopped again. Is there like a reset for wifi/tethering alone?

My phone is rooted, im on stock 5.0.1 no custom recovery or anything like that. I haven't changed or done anything to the phone recently either.
If I hold the power button down and look at the airplane mode option it will flicker on and off and as I lose service. Every now and then I'll get service for 5-10 seconds but most of the time my phone signal and data connection are off. Wifi and bluetooth work.
Any suggestions?
Unrooted the phone and went over to Sprint. They did a factory reset but the issue still persists. If anyone know how to fix this or even has suggestions please let me know. Its an otherwise perfectly working phone.
Hello! So this issue started about 2 weeks ago for me. Whenever I turn my wifi off, the phone will turn the wifi back on for 0.5-1.0 seconds then it will turn it back off. This happens nonstop. The issue persisted even when the phone was in safe mode and still continues even after 3 full factory data resets and wiping the cache partition 3 times as well. I did this through recovery mode. Nothing changed. When this is happening, it seems to drain my battery significantly. The only fix I have found for it has been to leave my wifi on all the time, even when I am not connected to or near a wifi hotspot. The issue also does not happen when the phone is in airplane mode. Also, I did not receive any software updates around the time this issue started happening. I have tried Googling and contacting Samsung and could not come up with a fix.
Is anyone else having or had this issue? If so, did you find any fix? Thanks!
If this thread needs to be moved to the help/troubleshooting section, please tell me how to do that, or do that yourself if you would like mods. This is my first time starting a thread so I am sorry if I put it in the wrong place.
Possible Fix
My Note 7 and S7 Edge were doing the same. I fixed it by disabling "Wifi scanning even while Wifi is turned off" in location settings.
