hi people
i'm noticing a problem with my data/edge/3g connection.
it simply stops working at times .. it just shows data being sent but no data received and my internet doesnt work.
This becomes fine after a reboot but again has a problem after a few hours
Is anyone else facing this problem too with Data connectivity ?
Yes, same problem with my german arc.
I am not facing any problem with data connectivity
same problems here, I found that stopping the WIFI and re enabling it is enough to get it back on track but its still a serious issue.
I don't like finding out I am missing e-mails an hour too late.
I only found it happens when I switch from 2G to 3G with data on.
So my work around is to turn data off first before switching between 2G <-> 3G. After that, turn back the data on.
This only happens to me on WIFI, on 3g everything is fine.
I am thinking about flashing the UK build to see if it helps.
I used to have the same problem with my x10. Data just stopped working randomly. I used to have a widget to turn 3g on/off and when the data stopped working, so did the widget. Was strange, and only a reboot solved it.
I have wifi problems,it sleeps after a while,no sleep is selectet.

same here. wifi works fine. til awhile later (evactly how long i didn't notice. will keep track)
After which no matter how i turn off & on wifi, forget the network & re-enter p/w. even off & on my phone. wifi status "connecting.... disconnected....connecting.... disconnected." will drains off a lot of battery if go unnotice.
i found a cumbersome work around... off the arc wifi & reboot modem/router. then can "obtaining ip address". but thing is, all other devices works fine.
so is it arc's fault? since all others can connect to wifi except arc
or
router's fault? i wasn't doing / changing setting on the arc. just reboot router. but wouldn't it be silly to do this everytime i use wifi on the arc?
so still no fix? sometimes it happens to me a few times during an hour...
Guys maybe this will help you out..
Go to wifi settings, press menu button->select advanced->under wifi sleep policy, set as never sleep
If not set the wifi shuts down to save battery.
And wifi is given more priority over 3g or 2g connectivity, so if you have wifi on you may not have proper connectivity to 2g or 3g
Turn on/off airplane mode, if you can't get a data connection. In a german forum some guys discussed about issues with multi-sim-cards, but I guess it is software related.

i changed my number and sim a couple of days back. with the same provider. my arc after being out of signal cant reconnect to the data network. the phone calls work fine. but the data is giving me problems. im still confused as to why this is happening. whenever i activate and deactivate the airplane mode, data connection comes back alive. could it be a problem with my sim or the phone radio?
edit: oh and i also reflashed my phone via sony ericsson update service, the problems still there.

Same problem here. This is really frustrating.
I dialed *#*#4636#*#* then phone info and pressed menu. Then I selected enable data connection (was disabled previously). The data didnt enable then. I went to settings>mobile network and enabled data from there too. Ever since, no disconnections. I dont know if this procedure or the fact that I tried to seat my sim properly worked, but u may try either. Let me know if this works....
Edit2: the above doesnt work.

I inserted my old fat sim and recreated the situation, the data automatically reconnected. The newer sim that's a microsim is causing the problem.

So I am having some wifi problems. Like most I have 5 or 6 wifis that I connect to on my phone. My issue is that I will need to use my data and my phone's wifi is stuck on trying to connect to a wifi network that is no longer available. I can't turn wifi off or anything. My only fix is to restart the phone. Any clues?

Yes. I believe I'm experiencing the same thing.
Here's my situation, I have the Rogers LGOG (Not rooted) and the reception @ work is extremely poor. So I turn on wifi to connect. I'm able to connect to my corporate wifi, but when I leave to go between floors and I'm out of my wifi range and return, I'm not able to connect. WI-FI is ON and it keeps searching for hotspots, but I'm not able to connect and the only way for it to work again is to reboot. Now, this does not happen consistently, but it has happened a few times to where I'm wondering is this a problem with the OS or is it the phone.
Any thoughts on this to point me to the right direction would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Same problem with F180K, but there an OTA update arrived yesterday saying "Wifi bug fix".
Cant tell if they really fixed it, cause im waiting for my flight, so cant test it right now.

I have a att Lg optimus G E970, I think I have the same issue, only solution is restart
Out of the blue, my WiFi stopped working. I know occasionally this happens and is usually fixed by simply turning WiFi off then on again our by unplugging the router for about ten seconds, but neither of these methods is working this time. This is different, I'm stumped. (By the way I have the SM-P600)
So, the error message I'm getting is, "failed to obtain IP address", then if I click, "RETRY" I get an error message that says, "Network disabled because internet connection is too slow." Which doesn't make sense because all my other devices on my WiFi network have no problems connecting and have no speed issues.
Really, really frustrating. Any help would really be appreciated! Thanks!
The same problems occurs frequently with my tab P-601.
But I have to restart the tab and it works fine. I have to use mobile data for internet connection instead of wifi.
I appreciate any help.
Anybody else have this happen?
I haven't had this problem on my P600, but have had something like it happen on other devices. I think the issue is that Android will remember and avoid WiFi APs with a poor signal. When I am on the fringe of my home WiFi the signal is weak and my network gets blacklisted. To clear the blacklisting I have to force the device to forget the network, the connect again as a new network.
Couldn't detect WIFI
I updated the Android 4.4.2 and since then my tablet couldn't find my WIFI.
My phone and my computer found the network normally but my tablet just showed some of my neihbors' networks. I tried to restart the tablet and reset the router but didn't help.
Now I tried changing he router's settings through my computer and set the frequency to a higher value and now my tablet finds and connects to the WIFI normally!
First i am sorry about my english
I have a problem with a wifi hotspot. I lost connection all the time or not all the time but every day this happens. When im online with my computer and my phone is hotspot everything works well but suddenly i got message "no internet access" My phone notifications show wifi hotspot is on but its not! My computer and other phone not notice that at all but if i turn off that wifi hotspot and turn on its working again. How can i fix this problem? This is so annoying. I have android 4.4.4
This might be of some consolation, it also happens to me quite regularly. I often have to put my phone into airplane mode and back again to reset the network. I think it's a carrier network issue rather than any software. Could be wrong though
Hi.
Since a few weeks I have a strange problem with my Wifi connection.
When I'm at home and turn on Wifi everything works fine for some time and my M9 connects to my Wifi. But after some time (haven't found a rule, sometimes after 1 hour, sometimes after 5 hours, etc) the wifi connection is lost and my network is no longer listed in the list of available networks. It also seems like the list of available networks is getting shorter the longer wifi is turned on.
If I turn of wifi and turn it on again after a few seconds my network is found immediately and the phone connects without any problems.
I'm not 100 percent sure but bluetooth seems to have almost the same problem and the phone no longer connects to my smartwatch until i turn off and on bluetooth. Sometimes it is also ok to turn off and on bluetooth to get my wifi back running.
The problem started to exist on lollipop and is also present on mm. I already did a factory reset but it didn't seem to help.
Anyone experiencing the same problem or has any clue what it could be? Maybe a hardware problem?
Kind regards,

Perhaps a router problem ?? Or a service provider issue with WIFI ?
Does the device connect with other WIFI signals other than your primary signal ?
Just a few other areas to check beyond the device that can be overlooked...g

Hi gregsarg, thankfs for your reply.
The router doesn't seems to have a problem since other devices have no problem to connect to it. Service provider has nothing to do with wifi, the phone is not connecting to the wifi it has no problems accessing the internet via wifi when it shows it's connected. Also the connection can be established as soon as i disable and reenable wifi on my phone for about a second.
I don't have access to the other networks that are around my home so I can't check if it connects to other networks, it's just strange that the device does not show my network in the list of available networks after it has lost connection. If I disable and reenable wifi on the phone it immediately shows my wifi in the list of available networks. SSID is not hidden...
Could be hardware related...
And you could RUU back to stock and test again to rule out a software issue...g
