Wildfire with
ROM: CM 7.2
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-InfinityPlay
Radio: 3.35.20.16
For the last year wifi, after a short period of time i can't download, I mean, some times i connect, get into market for example and download/update, but after some time i can't, it's not a market problem because i can't download from anywhere, regardless the app, but i can browse normally(!), the problem is only in downloading. Even if i reset wifi, go in and out of airplane mode, restart the phone etc, the problem stays. Maybe if i try the next day it works ok. I dont know how it occurs or when and why, nor how/why/when it gets fixed...
The problem started when I had rompuzzle 2.2.1 a year before, till now. Since then I have flashed stock rom with 2.2.1, jockerdroid 4.2, cm 7.1, and cm 7.2 that i have now.
I suspect it is a radio problem, but can't be sure.
*Also sometimes I have low gsm signal, even in well covered areas.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks
You said you flashed stock rom, i suppose it was a stock rom from Android?
It really looks like you have a problem with your radio (like you allready say for yourself).
It seems you have the newest one, so try a lower version.
I you have troubles finding a radio because the host is down or something just pm me or try google.
Hope this helped! Kind regards.
try radio 20.10
i have tried all 3 radios, but the problem stays. But i have noticed that when i enable tether and i put in the console the command for reverse tethering *usually* it gets fixed until the next time that i disconnect from my wi-fi.
i have not the same but similar problem,after a while i get dropped from router,even if my phone says its connected...this started to happen after changing our router (which i couldnt and cant set up) and setting up "N" wifi network...i found two options,how to solve it..
1)use free app wifi fixer from google play store (which somehow manages to know if you are connected or not and can automatically reassociate with router again)
or
2)flash HCDR.Kernel_v4_Flashable.zip from op on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798471
maybe it help, maybe not.. gl
I have *temporary* solved the problem by following the reverse tethering guide... I don't know why but after doing this procedure I can connect normally to my router, and if it disconnects (rarely) I just repeat the steps of the guide.
Hi guys i have a lg g3 that has been running fine on kitkat
it the received the lollipop update OTA and all went fine apart from now it wont turn the WiFi on
you can click it on and it moves to on but seems to be always trying to turn on..?? without turning on.?
any ideas..?
I have done a reset etc still no joy
Did you try to reflash? (I think that you mean by resetting that you full wiped your phone and not reflashed the rom)

Same issue here.
I get around it by forgetting network then just signing in again. Wifi works perfectly until I leave the house and return later. Then I just do the above and viola, working wifi.
I've checked with speed test app and wifi is definitely working.
Funny thing is, if I switch off wifi then turn back on it also works.
Only when ive left home and returned later does this bug arise.
Hello guys,
This thread is a little bit old, but I am curious to know if you found a workaround for this issue.
I have the same problem as the OP (not at the second poster): since I received Stock Lollipop the WiFi won't turn on. When I try to, it says "turning on" for a while then acts like it is off.
I just bought my LG G3, NCIX the reseller, refuses to refund me or replace my phone...
I performed several factory resets and tried to flash different KK stock Roms. The weird thing is that the WiFi works with KK...
Thanks for your help.
Identical experience here.
I recently got a D855 16GB, which was on stock unbranded V10a, jumped through several OTA updates through V10g, V10j, and V10k (IIRC) all with wifi working fine before getting the lollipop upgrade OTA for V20c.
Immediately wifi will not switch on - the switch itself is on, but with the off section a lighter grey compared to the bluetooth switch.
On the wifi screen itself it says "Turning Wi-Fi on..." but after a while the switch reverts to off.
It's now had OTAs to V20e and V20h, but wifi is dead on both versions.
Note that this is stock and unrooted (never rooted) so I can't believe it's something I've done. Next trick will be to root and poke around /data/misc/wifi.
Does bluetooth work or the problem is only with the wifi? I also have the same problem, wifi, bluetooth is not working and when I check in the settings the mac adress it says "unknown".

Unfortunately this isn't a unique problem. There have been countless bad updates from multiple manufacturers. In this litigious world, I'm surprised no one has sought damages for bad updates that effect usability.
I have the same problem from yesterday. wifi and bluetooth seem to be turning on but they never turn on. i've done many factory resets but it didn't work. has someone found a solution?
^^^ Exactly the same issue. Would love a solution!
Same issue. Tried Hard and soft reset and have also updated firmware using LG Mobile Support Tool but had no success.

ok, after 24h with this problem I think I got it back to working. Let me explain what have I done:
1. Mine is a dual sim model, that I bought in hong kong by the end of 2014.
2. Yesterday, I removed sim #2 (no longer needed), without removing the battery. I had a couple of messages indicating to restart the phone, blah blah. Can't remember if I finally restarted it or not.
3. This morning I saw no wifi connection in my phone, only 3G. Tried to start wifi in the quick access menu, but this kept blinking, never starting wifi. Restarting phone... nothing. turning off bluetooth... nothing.
I figured out that the problem had to be related with the SIM as this is the last thing I had done with the phone. Thus, I tried this, with success:
4. I turned off the phone, changed sim from slot #1 to slot#2 and started the phone. Wow, it worked for some minutes, then stopped, then started again. Well, a good sign.
5. Changed again sim from slot #2 to slot #1: Wifi working again. After some time it stopped working, but soon started again. Hasn't given me more problems (after only 30 min, that's true).
Hope it helps.

HELLO
I have exactly the same problem and I think we're not the only...
D855 :
-Wifi and Bluetooth doesn't work.
-Wifi keep turning on itself and the battery drain..
-3g/4g works perfectly.
-Downgraded on kk and Wi-Fi works so it is not a hardware issue
-Even on fulmics Rom Wi-Fi and Bluetooth doesn't work
HEELP ME PLEASE
Got the same problem here. I have my G3 since november 2014 and recently I rooted it to install CM 13 on it and Xposed bcs I got tired of the laggy software of LG. One morning I woke up to drink some water and saw my phone restarting a lot of time... ok I thought its a simple bootloop. Tried to install CM again, didnt fix it. Flashed stock software and still... Bought new battery and new power flex and the problem is still there. I go into download mode, installed the software with LGs support tool and got pass the bootloop, but now wifi nor bluetooth works. I thought it's the software so I dared myself again to root it and installed TWRP and CM13, but it wouldn't boot. I installed then Liquidsmooth, based on CM13, and got it to boot up, but in the configuration menu where WiFi is needed to be added it couldn't turn on. I skiped it and in the middle of the process it started again to restart. I don't know if it's a hardware based problem or software... But I would like to try everything out before I have to buy a new phone.

I don't understand why it doesn't work because if you downgrade on kk versions your wifi & bluetooth will be back...

Have you maybe tried to change the kernel of your device? I have never done that so I am scared if I would damage something.
http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-7-tablet-2013/306730-wifi-stuck-turning.html
Here someone says it's the kernel that is having problems and installing a new one and going maybe back to the old one will fix it.

I installed CM13 and in the setup screen I actually had wifi and I could connect to my router. It was kinda strange. But bcs I have some problems beside wifi, the reboot thing, I couldn't test out if it works too. Try flashing CM13 or ROMs that are based on it like Liquidsmooth. Maybe it will help.

Hi all,
I am a little bit desperated about getting my gps on my LG g3 (D855) working again. Until last month my GPS worked just okay, something it was way off but it was workable I was on stock lollipop after the OTA upgrade from Kitkat. Because of some heating problems and huge performance problems I decided to try a custom rom to see if there was increase and it worked perfectly! I noticed that my signal reception was a little bit troubling and flash some other modems to see if it improved ended with the 20p which was okay After that i tried my gps... and it wasn't able to fix anymore when wifi is on it sees 23 gps in view (GPS Test) but all with "00" signal. When turning wifi off it went back to 9 and sometimes 0. I checked the forum offcourse and found a few solutions:
-Erase modemst1 and 2 by using fastboot, didn't work
-Kitkat stock firmware, didn't work
-Lollipop stock firmware, didn't work
-Exchanged Simcard, didn't work
-Use Top NTP other program which configures gps.conf to the right NTP server, didn't work.
-Recalibrate Compass.. calibration worked but gps doesn't
-Try turning off location service, rebooting device, turning it on.. did't work
-Trying gps only or the with google services, didn't work
-Flashed almost all available modems, all the same results, 0/23 satellites and no gps fix
-Let is tryed to find a fix for like a hour but didn't work.
-Tryed latest CM firmware and Blissrom roms but all the same results.
Do you have any solutions or ideas what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance!!
Kind regards,
Toby
Open GPS Test, press the Menu button, select Update AGPS and try again.
Dear Robogo1982, Thanks for your reply! I tried it but seems not to work i also tryed the clear function and after that the update.
Try it in Flight mode.
Tried it, even with sim removed. It also seems that gsm reception is a lot worse, could it be a mechnical problem?
Flash back to stock using KDZ

I already had this problem with ICS (I never upgraded to KK) but only occasionally - Ever since I upgraded to Lollipop (5.1.1 French version) the phone constantly loses the connection to the network (and of course also to the data) while WIFI works perfectly, rebooting the device things are back in place, until I move again(specially inside the house).
At first I installed the TWRP recovery (full wipe) and the rooted the phone, then thinking to solve this BIG trouble I flashed Lollipop again, remade the wipe of all, left all the bloatware that the first time I had eliminated - but it didn't worked - instead of the triangle where usually appear the notches of the connection there is an "access denied icon", and when I try to call appears the message: "NOT CONNECTED TO THE NETWORK" - by the way I can not receve calls too while in this state (unreachable).
Has anybody had the same problem or can help me anyway? Should I downgrade to KK or ICS? (but I'm reading that's not going to be possible from 5.1.1!) Maybe I can try flashing another Modem? The rest of the telephone is perfect, battery consumption is better, camera, movies, fluidity: everything is ok but the telephone!
My BASE BAND is N7505XXUDOK4 and my BUILD VERSION is LMY47X.N7505POUDOK2. Thanks

You have to install flash stock 4.1.2 F180L KDZ again (yes! the korean one). Regarding IMEI/ No service, no one can help u if the EFS partition is lost (because that contains the phone info to be registered on the network).
The bootloop u had at CM13 has even easier fix than all of this KDZ mess. When I had my E975, The problem I had was no signal in CM12.1/CM12 so I had to resort to CM11. The F180's are so much falling into this crossflashing mess that its difficult to diagnose what can be the culprit.
Get the JB firmware flashed and check if u have imei.
