[Q] Wifi connection unstable after root - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

I recently rooted my S4 but after doing so, I keep getting notifications that my wifi connection is unstable. Which is usually just a bother but it doesn't allow me to download anything from the play store.

Try going into Settings and Wi-Fi. Delete the Wi-Fi AP and connect again.

Are you running a custom ROM?

Reboot the phone and use the default, built-in tether (Settings -> More -> Tethering & portable hotspot). You might want to give it a few seconds/1 minute for devices to properly connect. The app WiFi Tether for Root Users does not play well with 4.2.2.
The t mobile hot spot not on my phone... Apparently it got ease with most of my stock apps

I'm assuming that once the stock wifi tether is engaged, you switch to the WIFI Tether for Root users. I mean, what would be the point of using it if Tmo is gonna charge us for it. And when I start the stock tether, tmo takes over my browser and tells me I need to upgrade my plan to one that has wifi tethering. So i'm not following you. There is a way to spoof the browsers to use android browser, but by doing so, i'm unable to watch netflix. Let me know exactly what you are meaning. I'm having the same problem on Avatar 4.2.2

Hotspot vpn connectivity issues for Many! EDIT FIXED

Under the trevemod setup for our s4 , there are many replies by many xda members who are having trouble with the new hotspot shield vpn connection..
For me unlike the new version the old version it would initially connect on any device I had.
This device "s4 and the NEW updated hotspot vpn shield won't connect some say...
It just says connecting turns yellow then stops icon turns red back and forth.
EDIT: FIX
Restart device after you have vpn shield installed and tether set up.
THE Vpn shield will connect green
:thumbup:
You could try infamous rom. Has native tethering to an extent. Have to set it up in settings and then turn it on through a widget from play store.

It has never worked for me. I still get the my tmobile page everytime I use tethering.
The method worked for me, Just install Hspot vpn shield ..and reboot it does take 5-10seconds longer than the older version app used to take to connect green, but it will.

[Q] Internet problem

Hey folks,
I'm having some problems with my note 2 GT N7100, I can't connect to the internet, my mobile data is active though it's not working, it works only with whatsapp, then my wifi won't connect, it keeps saying "Obtaining IP adress" and nothing happens after, and yes I am rooted and I guess my problem is because of a root app.
More infos on the attachements, it would be great if someone could help me solve this problem.
Thanks guys.
Can you go to the internet using your mobile data? And did you put in your WiFi password correctly?

Well I made a hard reset and installed a new firmware, now it's working fine, it's just that Google Play stopped working.. I'm getting the 500 error while trying to download any app. I guess my phone is not feeling good these days.
Custom firmware? Maybe try reinstalling gapps again. It seems to solve most of my Google play issues.

No, the official Samsung's 4.1.2 firmware, well I have solved the problem, it has nothing to do with deleting Google Play's cache or deleting Dalvik cache or whatever, since I am rooted and I have Xposed installer, I used to use Hack connectivity module and it seems that it was blocking my wifi access so just by deleting it everything went good. Lucky me. Thanks bro for your help.

Browser FC

Just recently acquired a Note 8,long time android user and Xda member here.I notice that when using my device in other places using Wifi,I'm getting a browser FC which doesnt matter what type of browser im using ( Boat,Dolphin, Stock)
But the weird thing is when at home it doesnt do it.Im just streaming regularly.Im on firmware 4.2.2
is this normal? is it because 4.2.2 doesnt support flash anymore?
I wouldn't think that is normal, I have not had that issue when using wifi. Mine works on my home wifi or any other wifi I have connected to. Might want to install LogCat and see if you can find a hint there.

Hi,
You need to ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from.
Good luck!
Darth.. This has been a persistent problem that happens after every flash of a rom. I dunno what happened to my Bluetooth or WiFi but they never turn on. I even downloaded the same version of carbon ROM my friend had and his worked yet mine did not and I'm wondering why

I will have your thread moved to your device section so the experts who own your device can help.
If it were me, I'd flash stock 4.1.2 with Odin and see if its the same. If it is, sure could be a hardware issue.
Good luck!
Appreciate ya. That is a start. I can't use odin though because I do not have computer access at the moment. All solutions need to come from my phone

You may need to find a computer to use, or you could be out of luck until you try stock...
