LG KS20 Lost WLAN Settings

Hello,
I have a question regarding the LG KS20 from Vodafone Germany.
I was using it for a couple of days and then it was hanging. I removed the battery and restarted the phone. Now the WLAN / Wifi option completely disappeared from the Connection Manager. It just shows Bluetooth and Telephone now. Also, the WLAN manager from the connection settings is gone.
I had this situation before, sent the phone to repair and got back the same repaired. Now the issue happened again.
The strange thing is that neither a hardware reset now the factory reset code will cure the problem.
I would be grateful if someone can provide any hint.
Thanks
Ron

GPS kills Mobile Network

I have this rather annoying issue on the Desire. The phone is brand new, i bought it upon release. The problem is that whenever i enable GPS on the phone the Mobile Network connection gets killed. Attempting to reactivate it by switching mobile network on and off does nothing.
The only way to get the mobile Network back up again is to switch of GPS and reboot the phone.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? (i searched the forums, only found one user on these forums)... It could help me figure out if this issue is limited to my device...
Regardless, I already contacted HTC on this matter, i will post their response here as soon as i get it.
Thanks!

Odd. The only thing that springs to mind is that somehow the A-GPS is messing with your network. Try disabling A-GPS.
Is the phone bought from the network provider? If so, any network incompatibilities is their responsibility. Or even if it was store bought, you have reasonable expectations from HTC that it should work with local networks. If its gray import however, you're probably on your own.

Yep same issue with my HTC: When GPS enabled -> No more data transfer.
I'll also send a mail to HTC.

I reset the phone to factory settings today and to problem is now gone. My best guess is that the issue was caused by a third party app i installed (i'm not sure however, since all apps are sandboxed).
I installed two apps that made use of location services: GPS Status and Trapster. I'll download them again to see if they are the cause of this problem.
Please post back here if the factory reset works for you. This could help other people that experience this problem.
BTW, does anyone know of way to read error logs of the device? The OS must have software errors logged somewhere...
Thanks for the replies!

Received an answer from HTC (sent a mail about my Data Connection Problem few days ago):
"Thank you for contacting us in regards to connectivity on your Desire, I can help you with that. This issue has been reported to our developers for investigation and we hope to have a solution available soon. I trust that this resolves your query"
Hope also this "solution" will be available soon...

Guys,
I did a hard reset (return to factory settings ) on my Desire today and guess what:
Both my Data problems (no data after use of Wifi and or GPS) are gone !
Tested several times Wifi & GPS , also did a reboot and tested again, all seems working again, no more 3G data problem anymore.
So I guess one of the extra apps I installed caused the 3G Data Connection issue.
I'll reïnstall them one by one to see if I can catch the "guilty" one.
I also hope that problem doesn't return after a while without a cause.

[Q] How to connect to hidden WiFi?

Hello xda community!
I have a strange and serious problem: I can't connect to hidden WiFi's.
I'm with a LG G3 D855 10H (no newer versions available).
At work we use a hidden WiFi without password but with Juniper VPN.
When I type in the network name and save it, it tries one time to connect, then my LG G3 shows "not in range". After a few seconds, the WiFi is on the top again with a very good signal.
When I try to connect again, it shows "not in range" again and so on.
I tried it at home and created a hidden network and it was reproducible.
Anyone else has problem with this?
Many thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Jake

Now that is what you call a 'special' post!
Would you care to explain how it was resolved for the people that have the problem.

My problem still exists, but isn't urgent anymore.
I found out, Android itself have problems (or restrictions?) to hidden WiFi networks.
I also found an app names HiddenSSID Enabler, but it seems it didn't work for me (or G3?).
If someone has a solution it still would be very helpful fo rme and the rest of the community.

I have logs posted in my first post, WIFI DESTROYED TWICE or there abouts.
I've had to resort to DATA and its killing me haha i think i am getting close to fixing it, well i think i may be closer than you two and can one of you kindly take the lead as im reinstalling windows and i haven't gamed in 6 days :|
/system/etc/wifi/WCNSS_qcomcfg.ini
then the problem is complex but i am sure it is something to do with gEnableApProt=1
Offshoot fix, reinstall using googled imei number that doesn't have a flag or some how fix the flag <READ A FEW DAYS BACK>
I think actually the program that stuffed me was Airmon by maxters. It asked me if i was pro and of course, i said yes. Who would simply click no? I know a ninj wouldn't click no. I think there is a manual reinstall to link to it again i find the modem in its own partition having a chill, most likely trojan/backdoor and pwning everything around me.. I had three encrypted vpn backdoors and escalated accounts on my computer I paid the 5$ for the binarys, i think i paid 5$ for the back doors.
Not to sell Airmon out though.. Rooting our phones and accessing countless forums and websites really does leave us rather "xposed" some other cuplrits may be dsploit, ROM manager, linux Deploy/kali, Pamn IP scanner, system app remover pro, busybox pro's (Stephen/JRummy) or CMinstall/accessing the forums and trying to install cynagenmod / twrp recovery. I'm probably going to go with..... Airmon/Linuxdeploy or uninstalltool. But may have just been my IP logged and i hit a booby trap script along the way.
You guys done anything of the sort?

Neither I understand what you are talking about, nor am I (as not native english speaker) good at "sentence guessing".
I have a rooted phone - of course.
But I'm pretty sure my WiFi is not destroyed...

[Solved] GPS lock issue

Hi gentlemen,
I am creating a new thread because I found o lot of topics about the same issue, and i believe that the solution may not be on the 10th page.
My GPS stopped working propperly a few time ago and i tried a lot of ways to solve, and yesterday a friend solved it for me.
The issue on my GPS is that the signal was able to lock fast (few seconds) and when i start a route it loses signal and stays some minutes off, rerouting later.
The solution is actually quite simple, and looks like that doesnt make sense, but it worked for me and this friend. I hope it works for you too.
Solution:
Go to google settings >local> turn GPS on > Location History > change to on all the options
*** if you have more than one google account, do the same to second account ***
P.S.: I have only tested this on my LG G3 D855 and on a Moto G.

LG G3 searching WiFi but won't connecting.

Hello, I have non-typical problem with my LG G3, it sreachs WiFi networks, but when I tap on my WiFi networks it show on one second "Connecting" and... nothing. I tried with a lot of wifi networks in my work, home etc. I've tried hard reset and Android upgrade to 6.0 30C, nothing helped me. I've search on the Internet and didn't found simillar problems. Any ideas?
Regards!

Hey buddy I found myself in the same boat as you and a few of these other peeps in the Q&A with the issues concerning WiFi. The 3xception is that mine occured after frolicking mindlessly in Hidden Menu land galavanting about with no concern as to what the hell I was changing, bolstered by an almost psychotic illusion that what I was doing would somehow enhance my connectivity with the possible addition of a kinetic-energy based super power.
Seriously though - I did eventually retrace and undo almost all of what I originally did (mostly just checked or unchecked the many boxes in the IMS and related settings) and got my gps, bluetooth, and wifi to turn on and scan. However - I had already lost (never had) IMEI, (my phone was a purchase off Amazon that was bojangled from the get go - perma-locked and such) So I used the CRC MID wizard and rewrote my addresses and IMEI. It was there I noticed my country stuff was @ open_eu and I am in America - dont know if that really matters but didnt really look into it because I was on the other mission of righting my wrongs. Somewhere in all of this my adb.boot deleted (I noticed the toast when trying to enter modem protocol settings and one or two others) and so I believe that may have been why I was not able to boot into twrp but to boot up regularly(?) temporarily at least because after putting it down and walking away to ponder on it earlier this morning I used flashify to try and restore a nand of a stock debloated 20f rom, and well, we have seen where this was going all along....
Fastboot mode started is my lone response from my D850 save for the ability to enter hardware control mode (where it does show the IMEI took hold the CRC wizard wrote, so I assume the WiFi address and BT addy inscribed with it would be fairly legit. I took that leap thinking maybe they should all be established at the same time. I know many of you are shaking your heads and yeah I get it, I knew not to touch shiz so in essence I knew what I was doing - jackin it up...)
I know that was a clusterbomb there but having taken a little while to reflect on how insanely stupid all of the stuff I did was, especially so very extremely and freaking ignorantly at the same time all without making my usual notes, I am now ready to climb back on that horse and resurrect her from fastboot mode. Which looks pretty damn right up a dark alley as far as how much I know to do... Heres to XDA as that lone streetlight at the end of that dark alley for all the morons like me!
So what I was wondering is are you O.G. wifi mac and bt addy intact o are you having the issues I and a few others are where it was showing 02:00:000:00 or whatev? And just an advisement (which we all usually mostly follow, right? ) to record and back up your original settings/files/etc. and do whatever it is one at a time - I am cometely anxious and beast mode on this problem so maybe if we all friggin collaborate and get some documenting what does and doesnt work a decent and legit fix can be found and a guide written....
And speaking of after this I am making a guide to the acronyms you come across in Hidden Menu land... I will post any help I come across and hopefully a few people get energized and amped up to tackle this gnarly beast. Lets go XDA troops!!!
