Same here
And i was thinking that this got fixed with .145 update.
That was (and unfortunately still is) the only bug that is really annoying to me.
After about 5-10 minutes in standby the Wifi connection is dropped completely and it takes 15-30 seconds until it is established again.
This was with 2.3.2 and still is with 2.3.3
@ IntMD
If i get the description of this setting correctly it only assumes when data connection gets switched from Wifi to 3G. Please correct me if i´m wrong.
In my case it doesn´t matter anyway because it is set to "never" but still drops the connection completely.

I can't describe how this *&@# annoying... :-(

3g data and wi-fi problem

Hi guys! :victory:
I have got a problem with my samsung galaxy nexus stock version,
without root or unlocked bootloader.
The problem is about the 3g connection and wifi when I turn off the display.
3g: when I turn off the display, after a few minutes, the phone loses the data connection. It is like it goes in power saving mode because when I
turn on the display the signal icon turns grey and after a few instants blu. In fact mail, notifications, and whatsapp's messages are notified with
a 10-15 minutes delay.
wifi: same problem, when I turn off the display I lose the signal. When I turn on the display, the wifi icon disappear for an instant, become grey and then blue. Until it turns blue I don't get notifications.
I have already done several factory resets, disabled power saving settings
and I don't use any power management apps.
SMS and calls works fine.
help me please
Welcome to the club. I have the exact same issue and had a thread going about this. Nothing i've done has solved the problem. Even gone right to complete stock rom. Same problem. I noticed this started happening with 4.2. Before that i didn't have a problem. Mine only happens on Wi-Fi, no issue on mobile network connecitons. As well it happens no matter what router i'm connected to. This should be in the Q&A and troubleshooting section though...
With W-Fi make sure its set to always on in advanced Wi-Fi settings and that minimize power is unchecked as well as avoid poor connecitons. Might help for you.

I think the problem started happening with 4.1
And I've all the settings you said :crying:
I've dealt with the issue since updating to all the 4.2.x Roms. Not sure what it is, but its here to stay.

No, fortunately. Only WiFi.

Yeah my problems aren't on 3G. Rarely have I had that drop out. It's happened, but that's once a month tops.
I've gone to the point of buying a high end router to exchange my old router. No difference. I had a Cisco e4200 and now an e6500. Also had a D-link Dir655. Happened on all of those. Happens at Starbucks and at work too on their routers.
It's software problem for sure. And it can be fixed. And complaints have been put up on Google code site. There are at least 5-600 posts on that topic with people suffering the same problem. Why don't they fix it? No idea.
UPDATE
To let the wifi work, I have downloaded the app "wi-fi fixer" and using it I
fixed (just a workaround) the wifi issue!!:good:
But what can I do about the3G connection?:crying:
do you know if this problem is fixed with a custom rom??

Not for me. It's a kernel issue though since the kernel is what takes care of the Wi-Fi. But no kernel or rom has ever fixed it for me. I'm trying that wifi fixer though now.
I have the same problem.. But mine is really bad.. My 3G drops for a long time or it just never comes back, I have to reboot several times.. Not sure wat the issue is..

Arc ICS wifi obtaining ip/connecting loop

Has anyone got a solution for this problem of Google's Android 4.0?
Some specifc wifi routers/access points seems to be incompatible with ICS. Connecting turns out to be an infinite loop obtaining ip address/connecting. When android itself gets tired of trying it says: "Avoided poor internet connection".
It seems there is a solution for some devices, such as Galaxy S3. I already looked around half-internet and have not found a single working work-around.
I'm using stock ICS 4.1.B.0.587. When I was using GB wifi worked ok.
Shame on android.

Yes. That is problem.
I don't know the solution but I've heard of this one. A friend of mine switched to CM9 (this is ICS as you know) and he saw exactly what you described. The WiFi was working OK in GB but in CM9 it was entering an "IP obtained-Connecting to Network" loop. He searched in the CM forums and found out that you need to manually delete a file or something. Afterwards, it was OK. I'll ask him if he remembers what the solution was...
I don't recall whether I had a similar problem when I was using CM9 on my ARC. I used the CM9 briefly before switching to a JB ROM, maybe I haven't realized that I was experiencing a WiFi issue. Or maybe I was just lucky
Hi,
I have face this problem once, I'd miswrote my wifi key...
I hope you can go throught this

That worked for me when this happened a few weeks ago... just delete the dhcp_list file in a root explorer.

Try in router settings to set some country where channel 13 is not available.
For example put Canada. It has from 1-11 channels.
Maybe this will solve your problem.
Hi quera!
I'm on LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716) -locked- having this issue too.
Looking for a solution -with no avail at the moment-.
Good luck
@all:Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I've CWM flashed ViperXperia_V5.0.zip after install I had bootloop, then via flashtool flashed LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716) again root, install recovery and at the momentgoes like a charm
same problem had happened to me but rare now.
I would suggest changing the encryption to WEP and see.
I'm using Baseband 77 with quite many kernel from this forum.

If you've flashed LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716), haven't you lost ViperXperia_V5.0 ?

Does it work fine in the same wireless network?
I'm planning flashing Viper Xperia for what you've said, but do you imagine what would be the relation? I mean, what would make Wifi work if Viper Xperia was erased.

Now it works fine in the same networks, but I don't know why. When I installed it it bootlooped , it's so weird, though.

It could be your router man. You will only see the WiFi icon when you are connected to a network. If your router has gone for a crap, your phone e won't connect no matter if it remembers the network or not. Try 2 things:
1) Unplug your router. Wait 5 mins. Plug it back in.
2) If that doesn't work, try connecting to a different WiFi network and router.
This way you will know if its your phone or router. And if it is your phone, since its so new, just take it to a service center.

if u r using custom rom u should ask from its developers
but u had same problem on stock rom u should Repair Firmware by PC companion.
and if problem remains trying to flash stock rom from another regions.
after these steps IF problem remains u must take ur phone to official service center
:good:
