SMT705 Wifi - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I'm new here, well my friend suggest this place to get help for my phone. So the problem is, when i turn on my wifi using my SMT705 it connect then after awhile after playing COC , Brave Frontier the wifi seems like to disconnect on its own. Does this problem have a solution. I've been googling about Wifi problems, some said dial *#0011# then click Menu click Wifi then, ON button will appear after that press it to turn OFF. Well i've been doing the same thing over and over again, its not working. My Phone Wifi problem is still the same. Is it my phone or my WIFI HOTSPOT ( using ST15i Mini as WIFI HOSTPOT ) Old phone. So if there is a solution to my probelm, please reply to this thread and show the solution to my problem. It's hard to play Clash Of Clans, always disconnected xD
One more thing, my laptop doesn't have the same problem . Not useful anyway. Haha

I sometimes get that - wifi drops whilst playing CoC. Is your tab getting hot at this point? I think sustained heat is bad (for any device). I havent found a cure - but wifi comes back after 10-30s.

If it was me i would try someone elses wifi just to see what happens....or if not possible get a usb wifi adapter into your laptop, make a bridge between your internal wifi and usb wifi, then create a wifi network with your laptop and connect your phone to it...but it would be easier and tell a lot more to try another persons wifi....overheating does cause unstable wifi connections...happens to a laptop when the wifi chip becomes faulty and overheats.

I want to see how

You're using mobile data through a wifi hot spot on an old device to play games ?
I pretty much think you've answered your own question there.

[Q] Weird wifi issue

Hi everyone,
I'm enjoying my One X since last Thursday. I did have one problem, though : my wifi wasn't working at home. What happened is that the phone correctly connected at the network, but then it would "kill" the wifi.
I mean, neither of my laptop computer nor my old Desire (which were both connected before the One X) worked on wifi after I connected the One X, which by the way didn't work either.
Considering this issue I wen't to the carphone warehouse to have another phone.
I didn't go home straight, I got to try other wifi network, which worked perfectly.
But, at home, I'm still having the same issue !
Can anyone help me please ?
so none of your hardware is now connecting to your Wifi?
If so, I would suggest a hard reset of your Hub/router. If there is a reset button hold it in for 20-30 seconds, if not, unplug for 30 seconds.
If it's just your One X not connecting try going through settings to ensure its setup correctly.
Had the same issue with my sgs and avm fritzbox 7390. The only thing that helped was a complete factory reset of the fritzbox.
Try using a static ip, make sure it is unique.
There is a setting under wifi advanced to stop the wifi from sleeping when phone is off or kill it if the signal drops or if your phone is idle. I modified those and it works perfectly. Default setting is to kill it.
Nothing is wrong with your wifi. It's just the way you've got it setup.

Actually, my laptop and Desire are connected to the Wifi ; they can't connect only after i set my One X on the Wifi. It's like the phone is destroying the wifi network.

I didn't find those settings. In wifi advanced I only found an setting that disconnect the phone when signal is low.
I should mention that whenever the One X is set on wifi, it works for like a minute. Then all of my devices can't access the internet. Desire and One X are showing that they are connected, but no access to play store, browser... Computer is showing an error message "limited access". And my TV (which I get with my internet box) is freezing.
What I don't understand is that I tried on two friends' network, everything worked perfectly. Only at home As Cxpher said, I guess it must be my wifi that isn't set up correctly. But what can I do next, except hard reset and static ip ?
EDIT : I tried to connect the One X without having any other device connected. It worked, but as soon as I launched the Play Store, I lost the connection and had to reboot my box. Apparently the Play Store is messing everything up. Weither I have hardware connected or not, it never works (again, only at home).
Up.
Anyway, not being able to use my own wifi is a bit annoying
Same exact issue. Phone going back tomorrow.
WiFi fine for 2 years.
New one x WiFi dropping and having to reset router after 2 mins connected as all WiFi dies.
Seriously fcukd off!
Which router do you have? Is there any logging-function available in the router software/firmware?
Standard netgear.
It's been fine with s2 and hasn't needed to be reset for a over a year....until yesterday!.
Not overly tech, would a log facility help?
A log would help to see what is going on with the router when the phone connects. The fritzbox showed an authentication error when my sgs connected and killed the wifi for all devices in the network. Just googled your problem. Netgear and htc devices seem to have problems very often when connecting. You should try to get the newest fw for the netgear. Maybe that solves the problem.
Thanks for your help. Latest firmware is installed tho.
Bizzar issue!
Shame as its a nice phone too
I have a classic french box (called Bbox). For the record that actually is my second phone. I had the same issue with the first one, so I went directly to ask another one.
So has exchange phone resolved the issue?
Sorry I explained it wrong. I meant I already had the problem when I first bought the phone, so I went to get another one. I had the issue on both One X.
Well i have got a netgear router and have no problems at all must be something to do with you router or it setting i would do full reset and see if that helps
hi guys!
i had the same problem with my router ( netgear DGN 1000), i solved by updating the router firmware to latest manually! no more wifi drops now!
i hope this information can help all users with this issue!
In an other thread somebody had advised to deactivate the wifi password in the router. That helped fix the problem at his phone. I will try this too to confirm that. But wifi without password is an absolute NoGo in my opinion.
here the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24811292&postcount=6
I'm bringing this up again because issue is still here ; removing encryption on the wifi network changes nothing. Other thing now, it didn't only happened at home but also at work.
Warranty is now void, this is my second HOX and I had the same problem on both. Anyone has a magic solution ?
same issue
Im having the same wifi issue using a D-Link DIR-615. Wifi is working perfectly with other device but when my One X connect to wifi, it freeze the wifi network for all devices. I Always need to unplug/plug the AC cord to reboot and refresh the wifi network and after it may works for a couple of mins or maybe 1 hour and after I must reboot the router again.
My router firmware is up to date but there is no more support/firmware update for the DIR-615 REV. B since 2008!
I switched to static ip and snag persist so im back in dhcp.
I cleared the router log and will post it next time it will freeze.

[Q] ICS 4.04 (basebad I927UCLJ4) WIFI issue?

**Baseband I927UCLJ3** sorry if that threw anyone off.
Hey guys, I am wondering if anyone has experienced any wifi connectivity issues on the new update.
I dont have any issues connecting to wifi, but for some reason, it wont stay connected for very long. It seems like after I go out of range, it simply wont connect to anything, and I have to manually connect to my network.
The problem is I have been blowing through my data plan, thinking I'm on wifi, since everywhere I go I am normally on wifi. But in actuality, because my phone hasnt been auto connecting to the networks, I have gone through half of my data plan in about a week.
This has only happened since the 2nd release of ICS. The first one work fine for me (expect the black light issue, which I didnt really care that much about).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I believe wifi has nothing to do with baseband. Probably there is something wrong with your phone and the new kernel wifi driver...
I'd try removing the access point and re-creating it, and playing with the advanced wifi settings.
Also, try rebooting the router/wifi access point.

Thanks for the info!!! I looked more closely into the settings and for some reason it was set to turn off wifi when sleeping.
I feel a little stupid, but I'm glad I got it sorted out.
I really appreciate the help.

Sightly strange WIFI issue

Good afternoon XDA HOX owners,
I'm having a really strange problem with getting on to my wifi AT HOME ONLY.
The phone sees the wifi, registers the strength of the signal, but loses connection all the time. it's the first time I've had this issue with a gadget, and this is the 4th smart phone that's been owned in my household, while using this particular wireless router. there's also 2 laptops, a NAS and an iPad (EEWwwww ) ... and my mates that have my wifi password get on without an issue...
If I turn the wifi on the phone off and on, it works for maybe ten seconds to a minute, and then drops connectivity, but not the signal. I know this because of the little 'up and down' connectivity arrows that run in the CM10 wifi indicator. they go either up, or down or nothing, but the signal is still there.
Any help would be massively appreciated as it's ruining my love for the awesome device the HOX is, especially running CM10.
Thanks :good:
your auntie mable
Gonna bump this thread up because I'm home and it's driving me batty!

I had this issue with my homehub on the 'n' setting. Something just didnt work between the phone and hub. Try changing it to 'g' if its not that im at a loss. My.x would work everywhere else but home properly
Now works flawlessly
My nexus used to fly with the hub. Slightly irritated i had to lower performance purely for my phone. Its npt a massive difference but theres a reason theres a g and a n lol

Thanks mate.
So I've tried that and no luck. Virgin phone support says it must be a 'hardware issue with the phone'.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks

I'm having similar issues with my Wi-fi at home, tho my connection lasts longer, sometimes 10 mins, sometimes 5 hours+ sometimes all day. The strange part is that when i use wi-fi on the phone alot like some sort of heavy stuff youtube, downloading etc. then my connection drops. I've tried using only N connection and BGN Mixed on 20 and 40HZ channel and N seams to give me the best results, never tried B and G connections since i think those reduce the range of your WI-FI , too bad i didn't go for A B G N router. Anyway could be up to my router or something, every device that uses my WI-FI has same issues with this router. I even took it to the repair center they've done some ping tests and showen me that router works perfect. anyway back home still does those buggy things. If anyone has any good idea please feel free to suggest us.
I'm also having an issue with mine, although slightly different.
My phone connects to available wireless with no problem and stays connected however when I leave that location it stays connected instead of switching back to mobile data. I have to turn off wireless and then turn it back on to get it to switch to mobile data.
Kinda a pain in the arse and really annoying. I've missed allot of important emails since I got this phone due to me forgetting to turn wifi off everytime I leave somewhere with wifi.
None of my previous smart phones had this issue. I'm hoping that if I get custom rom on it, it will work properly,

Translate, what does that mean?
Sent from LT18i with custom firmware by myself.
2nd in the list switches to the 3nd , then 4th goes to 2nd.... (keeps on going) verry weird, maby i should make a vid of it.
If you mean the list of networks keeps changing, it is because the signal strength might be changing and Android does list them by showing the stronger ones first.

[Q] wifi?

I don't know if this is really the right place to ask this but her goes.
My wife has a S4 mini and I have Note 3. When connected to our home wifi I can connect to all the same app she does, however lately when she tries to enter hayday (her flavour of the month game ) It would load up to just before entering the game and then be stuck on that screen saying loading ....
Most other apps work perfectly so the wifi on the phone works(there seems to be a whatsapp issue that I saw yesterday, monitoring to see if it persists)
I on the other hand don't have any troubles when loading.
When she changes from wifi to mobile data however it loads instantly. Now I don't know if the issue is with the wifi network or just something phone/wifi combo.
I was just wondering If anybody else have seen something similar and maybe have some advice on how to remedy the issue?
