The wifi and 3g data connection on my Galaxy Nexus are not working, even though they are connected. At the top right, the WiFi and 3G icon/bars are both grey (they should be blue when working correctly).
I can make phone calls; I can also send and receive SMS (however, any SMS that I send are not actually saved on my phone). But anything involving data (i.e. using BBC news app, checking emails) will not work.
I tried turning off wifi, but 3G won't work. I tried turning off 3G, but wifi won't work. I tried removing battery and sim card, but still nothing. I tried turning on/off airplane mode but, again, nothing
I tried factory reset.... and wifi and 3g data started working again properly. But a few hours later... it stopped working.
I don't even have a ton of apps on this phone; I really only use it to make phone calls and to do text messaging.
Try custom software.
It sounds like it isn't a hardware issue since it was resolved after you factory resetted.
What are you currently running?

Hi,
My 3g connection keeps connecting even when i turn it off, within a few minutes i check again and its turned itself back on again, how do i stop this? i use 3g but only when im not in a wifi area...any help appreciated cas it seems be having a drain on my battery cas i have wifi and 3g on at same time then.
There are several 'services' that you can run on your phone that will cause 3g to keep connecting.
What have you got running?
ive got my emails setup, ive got stocks, also weather, skype (but not always running)
ok, have you set any of these to update automatically?
Plus, have a look on the Settings tab then data services also if you has agps set to on, i think this will also cause it to connect.
emails are automatic, but is it possible to do it via wifi when thats active? instead of activating 3g
Hi.
I have had my M8 for a month.
Two days ago, I discovered in the morning that I could not make any calls, and that no one could call me. SMS did not work too.
Disabled 4G, and was back again. So I guessed it was just my phone company having problems with their 4G service, since 3G worked fine.
Tried several timnes after that to enable 4G, but everytime I got no signal bar.
This morning it got worse:
Now 2G and 3G doesn work either.
The strange thing about this "new" status, is that I have full signal. Data traffic works. So internet stuff works fine, but SMS and Voice does not work.
Called my phone company, and they checked their service in the area pluss they also checked my acount, without finding any errors.
They are saying that the error has to be on my phone.
I have booted the phone, reinstalled the SIM, but still the same status.
I also shoud mention that I am running the latest stock SW rom,
I am starting to wounder if I have a HW error on my phone?
Any sugestions on how to fix this?
So I've had this issue ever since I started my new job.
It just happens randomly, and sometimes it happens but the notification wouldn't even come up.
(I tested that by calling myself when I didnt see the notification)
I searched around, nothing has worked so far. I tried the whole dial *#*#4636#*#* to get into settings and switch the preferred modes around, didn't help.
It's also not my SIM card since this issue only happens at my office.
Any ideas?
I'm stuck relying on the office wifi for wifi calling, which would be fine but the wifi isn't supposed to be used for personal devices.
Hello guys!
Here is the deal. I hope somebody is able to help me. I have a galaxy s6 920p with the ramified ROM (OH1 version on OI1 band) that works perfectly except for this weird issue. So, i am in Peru and i unlocked my phone, it works perfectly with my local carrier on LTE or 3G depending on the coverage EXCEPT when i connect to a wireless network(WIFI), if i do so my LTE 3G icon will dissapear as expected and be replaced with the WIFI bars and i would then be on Wifi internet which is fine. The problem comes when i move away from wifi signal or turn off the WIFI myself, the signal bar will remain full and i can make and receive calls normally but there will be a "!" sign next to it indicating that the mobile data is not working, the only way to fix this is by either rebooting the phone or setting it to flight mode for around 10 seconds and then bringing it back to normal, which makes my mobile data start working normally until the next time i turn on the WIFI. I have also noticed that my APN gets unticked everytime i connect to WIFI, regardless of this sometimes (i would say 30%) if i turn off the wifi the 3g/lte connection will resume normally. I am a pilot and sometimes i keep my phone without airplane mode, in the air i lose signal but as soon as i regain ground i recover my lte/3g, so this also indicates me that is not something related to the reconnection of signal itself but something regarding the WIFI. I hope you guys have any clue of what is going on here because it is really annoying and i haven't found any info about this. TY in advance!!!!
I have an Unlocked HTC 10 that I bought directly from HTC. Sometime, when I try to send a text and I'm on Wifi, whether I have a connection to my mobile data or not, the attempt is an automatic failure, even if I try to resend. If I turn off wifi, it won't enable my data connection, even if I turn it off then back on. It forces me to toggle airplane mode on then off If I want to send a text or browse the web. Also, to make things worse, the issue is completely random. I have no idea that it has happened until I try to send a text. TBH, I'm not even sure if wifi is part of the problem, like maybe it is disconnecting from Mobile Data regardless. If it matters, my carrier is T-Mobile.
Keep in mind, I have wifi calling disabled because it was more trouble than it was worth. But for some reason, the phone won't switch to data without my intervention. If I go out of range of the wifi, it will switch, but not all of the time.
Like right now, under my connection settings, Mobile Data says "Disconnected" even though it is turned on. When I just toggled Airplane Mode like I stated above, the connection was established immediately.
Why is the phone not connecting to the Mobile Network automatically? It seems like common sense when it comes to smart phones nowadays and is really annoying when I send a text, only to find out 30 minutes later, it didn't even try.
From other threads it seems to be an issue with the most recent update from HTC. Only fix right now is to flash a ROM that isn't running the latest update.
