Hey
i have a problem with my phone, running CM10 since a week.
i never had this problem with CM9 or stock 4.0.x.
If the phone is in standby for a while and it looses wifi for a few minutes it gets stuck at "searching for wifi" i can't turn it off and i can't reconnect because it never finds any networks until i reboot then everything turns back to normal.
I read a bit through the CM10-Thread but didn't find anything about it. And i didn't found anything with the search.
So..how to fix this?
hope someone can help me.

I'm really hoping this isn't a hardware issue as I would dread having to go get my EVO replaced and restore everything to how i have it, but I'm having an odd problem.
WiFi randomly stops working after a reboot sometimes. I turn it on, it scans for about 4-5 seconds, says "Unable to scan for networks" and then WiFi turns off. The only way I can solve it is by flashing back to flipz' stock rooted ROM. Reboots won't solve it, battery pulls won't solve it, turning on and off different networks won't solve it, nothing. Has anybody else had this issue or know how to fix it? Thanks guys.
did you update your firmware/software? the sprint rep had be update EVERYTHING before activating my phone.
yep. problem still occurs
After 2 days of testing I've narrowed it down to being either a setting or a corrupted system file from a backup. Hopefully it won't show up anymore.
With ICS when I first turn on my tablet, the WiFi often does not connect, even when the signal is strong. WiFi is on, but it does not connect until I turn WiFi off and then back on or manually select my home or office network. Once in a while this happens I turn the tablet back on after it has gone to sleep.
I tried restoring to factory defaults and it fixed the problem for a few weeks. But it has come back again. Has anyone seen this problem and found a solution?
I am using the OTA version of ICS.
I have also had this problem on occasion, but it seems to be happening less and less which is strange. I haven't gone to the effort of resetting my tablet.
There are many little quirks in ICS that I think will need ironing out with an update. Whether Acer think it worth their while is another matter.
I am on stock ICS - Rooted.
I know its not a fix, but normally I just toggle airplane mode from the system bar. Seems to be the fastest way to get it going. It happens on about 25% of cold boots to me.
Been happening to me every reboot since ics. Another incomplete release.
I grabbed my brother's S II X because he was tired of it (phone having some issues that I didnt get so far, but he's not the most responsible phone user out there). Screen is cracked (not a huge crack, touch works 100%), bezel in poor condition, but otherwise works great.
Except for the Wi-Fi, which most of the time I cannot get working for some reason. It just stays off, or if I go in the Wifi menu and turn it on there, it shows "Turning On...", then stays there. Sometimes it starts working for absolutely no reason, sometimes it works from a cold boot, sometimes it works after enabling data/4G and messing with other stuff. I can't replicate the fixes. And it will also "disable" itself automatically for no reason after a while (could be minutes, could be hours).
A quick search made me realize this was a recurring issue with a few phones, not only the T989, but the fixes are missing.
It was doing this on stock 4.0.3, now I flashed AOKP's latest nightly (2013-02-22) and the issue is still there. I havent touched the kernel at all, other than dumping AOKP in there (if it includes a custom kernel then I guess I did, but otherwise I havent flashed anything else other than AOKP).
Anybody knows what is going on, or a tip to figure it out? Its rather annoying not being able to use Wi-Fi, especially since I was hoping I could change carriers to drop my plan prices by half by losing unused data.
I have a Canadian/Telus T989D, using the TLLE4 radio. I will try the TLLG2 (Koodo) radio and see if the issue is still there, but Id like to have a few ideas to try out since Im not really used to the inner workings of an Android phone.
Up, I really need tips on how to try and fix the issue. The phone is barely usable, the USB won't connect to the computer 19/20 times, Wi-Fi doesn't really work, and BT doesn't even turn on. I needed to remove the SD card from my old phone to put in this one and manually transfer pictures I took for job, to put them in the computer...
I flashed TLLG2 radio (Koodo) and Wi-Fi worked immediately after, but again stopped working shortly after. EDIT: BT doesn't seem to work on TLLG2, now that Im back on TLLE4 it works, but WiFi still doesn't work
It's not the first time that this happens to me with Maguro Galaxy Nexus, as the title says:
Often I take the phone to use it at home and it stays there trying to connect forever to wherever I try to conenct, being it Google play market, browser pages, google now, etc.. It is like networking is stuck trying forever. Wifi seems on since the wifi indicator is active.
The only work-around is turn wifi-off and back on. But this keeps happening and never comes back when it reaches that state, the other day the phone remained like that more than 7 hours, so it does not come back ever.
I'm using CyanogenMod 10.2 M1.
Anyone else experienced this?
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.
