I just reinstalled the lastest ROM (Marshmallow) from my carrier and I found the wifi won't enable during plane mode. It even prompts (only the first time) me that wifi gets turned off when I switch on airplane mode but should I wish to use wifi I can just go ahead and turn it back on. I used it for a couple days as normal after last time I installed the same ROM, same problem but I swear it fixed itself without me doing anything purposefully. Now after the resintall it is back... So I wonder, what the heck is actually going on? Sorry if I lack any more useful info here, I try to reply asap!
Self update: I found the solution in https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/59664/possible-to-turn-on-airplane-mode-with-wifi-on-only Looks like my ROM had the wrong setting about airplane mode radio and all you need is adb to correct those settings. You can even tune radio so they do not get disabled when you enable airplane mode. Very nice solution which helped me out! Still does not explain how it was fixed on its own before though. Arh whatever, it is repaired now!

Hiya...
I have tried searching for anything todo with bluetooth not disabling... I dont even use bluetooth but accidently turned it on the other day, and since then i cant turn it off... I am running MCR r2 with no problems until this...
I have tried turning it off but it just sits on "turning off..." have turned the phone off and back on at this stage but bluetooth re-enables... have tried going into aeroplane mode and trying to switch off bluetooth before it activates etc.... Still no luck.... is there another way of turning bluetooth of?!?! Stopping a service/process or anything!!
Any help would be great...
Thanks in advance
No-one have any ideas?!?! Its eating my battery and i dont fancy reflashing my ROM just to sort it out... But i guess if needs must
Is the bluetooth controlled by the Kernal or by the actual rom!? If i could get away with only flashing the Kernal with a known good one then im happy with that!!
I installed android VaniljEclair RLS11 build to my SD card on my tilt and it was working great, however recently it keeps going into airplane mode and I can't get any reception despite the fact that if i revert back to windows mobile i can get reception to my ATT carrier. Anyone know how to fix this issue? It seems like when i tried to change my caller ID settings from the carrier, it caused this problem. Now i can't even receive or make a call. Please help!!!!
Oh and i keep pressing airplane mode to get out and it keeps activating it again. Dunno wth is going on.....
I just had the same problem yesterday. I just rebooted with the same rom and it fixed itself. What Radio are you using?
yeah i did multiple reboots and it didn't help however today randomly its working again. sucks not to have a working phone for a few days.
Sorry if this has been posted before but i cannot find it any where.
OK so i just got a brand new s3 and when i try to turn on wifi, it just turns off automatically. Ive tried turning off wifi sleep mode options and did a factory data reset and still didnt work. I would install a custom ROM and see if that fixes it but its not my phone. Any help would be really appreciate it and Thank you.

This seems obvious but did you set up your wifi in settings with password and connect first?
I can't even do that. I just hit the button and it just turns itself back off.

I have found WiFi to be very hit or miss. Sometimes it will work all day but other times I will have connection issues like "connected, no internet" or "obtaining IP address." This is very annoying and if I can't fix it I just may have to return the phone.
Are you running a custom kernel? Have you tried turning airplane mode on for a little bit and then back off?
I am running completely stock with the latest update from Google. Putting the phone on airplane mode doesn't fix the issue, neither does turning WiFi off and on. The only way to solve the issue is to restart the phone.
My phone is rooted, im on stock 5.0.1 no custom recovery or anything like that. I haven't changed or done anything to the phone recently either.
If I hold the power button down and look at the airplane mode option it will flicker on and off and as I lose service. Every now and then I'll get service for 5-10 seconds but most of the time my phone signal and data connection are off. Wifi and bluetooth work.
Any suggestions?
Unrooted the phone and went over to Sprint. They did a factory reset but the issue still persists. If anyone know how to fix this or even has suggestions please let me know. Its an otherwise perfectly working phone.
