Sorry if this has been posted before but i cannot find it any where.
OK so i just got a brand new s3 and when i try to turn on wifi, it just turns off automatically. Ive tried turning off wifi sleep mode options and did a factory data reset and still didnt work. I would install a custom ROM and see if that fixes it but its not my phone. Any help would be really appreciate it and Thank you.

This seems obvious but did you set up your wifi in settings with password and connect first?
I can't even do that. I just hit the button and it just turns itself back off.

Have you tried factory reset. Or just download the stock Rom and use odin to reinstall.

Actually what I ended up doing was, powering down the phone and then powering it on. That seemed to fix it, but I'm concerned if it was a temporary fix.

It has to be temporary fix.. It shouldn't have done that in the first place.. Then again if it worked that's good.

you probably have some apps that is keeping the phone awake
or enabled the setting to keep phone awake when on USB
or you need to change the screen time out setting to something like 15sec
Guys, need some help here.
I have WiFi at home, and when I'm home, I'm ALWAYS on WiFi. My mobile data is turned OFF.
Now, each time the phone is locked and when I unlock, the mobile data ALSO AUTOMATICALLY turns ON!
I then have to turn it off, and then it remains OFF. But then again, the same thing happens when the device is unlocked.
I tried talking to HTC over the phone, and they told me to do a restart, which I did, but no luck. I really don't want to do a factory default setting. I want to keep that as my last option.
Any idea what seems to be the issue here? It seems to me that it has something to do with the screen ON and OFF time.
PLEASE HELP!

Go To Settings => More => Usage. Turn OFF the Mobile Network (first) option.
Think this should do.
Cheers
I don't know what You mean by data on, do you have working mobile data and wi-fi simultaneously?
You may want to check this: Settings->Wi-Fi->Advanced-> Keep Wi-Fi active when sleep and set it to active.
@veerm, p3v4x, thanks. I figured out the problem. I had installed this app called, Battery Defender, and that was what was causing this to happen. Uninstalled it, and am happy again
Just got my H7x Saturday and am blowin away that a phone this nice can be had for under $200usd.
Anyways, Whenever I have the phone connected to the power-cord(charging) the screen won't turn off. I'll wait for the 60sec I have it set to, fade, the screen turns off, and then right back on immediately. Does the same when connected to USB on a windows computer. Charging only, file transfer etc. does it no matter the mode.
Any input with help would be greatly appreciated... Thank you

This setting is normally defaulted to off, but check the development option "stay awake"
No, it's set to off. But good call.
It seems like the screen saver would make it do this too. I just noticed that everytime the screen comes on, it's a different picture. However, settings>display>screen saver is off.
Just figured it out.
Under settings>Apps and notif...>notification and status bar> I had 'notifications turn on screen' turned on. That's what was causing it. Strange...
Can anyone else test for this?

Most users are on roms right now, I suggest you do he same.
And, no need for other people to test for this, you fixed the problem.

I guess I could root and rom. I am just so impressed with the battery on the stock rom I was going to try and keep it as long as I can.
What ROM do you suggest?
And I didn't fix the issue. Just turned it off... Its still an issue for people who want thier screen to turn on when they get notifacations.
Thanks for the help!

Openkirin roms are good, but the support chat in telegram is a bit toxic...
Also, any hi6250 rom will work well, like with the p8 lite 2017; roms there work on the honor 7x too, i've tested.
I just reinstalled the lastest ROM (Marshmallow) from my carrier and I found the wifi won't enable during plane mode. It even prompts (only the first time) me that wifi gets turned off when I switch on airplane mode but should I wish to use wifi I can just go ahead and turn it back on. I used it for a couple days as normal after last time I installed the same ROM, same problem but I swear it fixed itself without me doing anything purposefully. Now after the resintall it is back... So I wonder, what the heck is actually going on? Sorry if I lack any more useful info here, I try to reply asap!
Self update: I found the solution in https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/59664/possible-to-turn-on-airplane-mode-with-wifi-on-only Looks like my ROM had the wrong setting about airplane mode radio and all you need is adb to correct those settings. You can even tune radio so they do not get disabled when you enable airplane mode. Very nice solution which helped me out! Still does not explain how it was fixed on its own before though. Arh whatever, it is repaired now!

Try safe mode. If that doesn't work try a factory reset, if your using a custom ROM flash latest stock and try to reproduce the fault. If still continues to happen I would get in contact with Google to see what your options are.

Thanks for your answer! I have tried safe mode and factory reset and the problem persist... It's very weird... I changed the display days ago and after that i had contacted the phone to charge and suddenly the phone turns off when i turns on again I got a message about.. " his phone was turned off as a precaution. battery overheating" something like that was the message... Could be the problem something related with that?
