Same for me - no such (or other) WiFi issues at all.
Probably caused by a hardware defect?! Have you tried a hard-reset?

I have the same software and problem with wifi and mobile network too.
It has started after last software update.
My solution is:
settings->about->software updates->scheduled check unchecked
After that phone works as usual.

yes, i did hard reset (restore factory setting), but with no luck.
Exactly, after last update which comes with HD media link this issue started...
thank you bouth for replay i ll try uncheck this automatic sw update check. hope it ll work..
well..."settings->about->software updates->scheduled check unchecked" doenst work for me....!! :-////

I am having the exact same problem.
Occured after installing the new update.
A hard/factory reset did not help.
This evening I will try to connect to another WiFi network to see if it only happens at my home network.
I hope that HTC will release an update very soon that fixes this problem/bug.

Wrong section...Please keep all question/help related threads in the Q&A section. Thank You.
Thread Moved.

well...we all know that issue started after last update, but why only few people have this problem...its like only 1 of 100(or 1000?). It sounds strange to me if 99% are ok with their one v and 1% have this issue...:-//

I almost managed to solve my problem.
Here, at home, I have a normal laptop (this one) and a small netbook (for music). Both are on WiFi. Right now I have my normal laptop on WiFi + the phone on WiFi. As soon as I boot up the netbook and as soon as it connects to WiFi too my phone starts rebooting.
I also noticed that this problem did not occur on another WiFi network that I was connected to earlier. Basically it seems to interfere with my netbook. I assume they are on the same IP address. Therefore I will give them both unique fixed addresses and it is likely that the problem is solved with that.

Thank you for your observation, im testing it right now so i hope it will solve this problem once for all.
Edit: well...no luck... i fix ip for my phone and since then(3 minutes) i restart twice...it even worse at all ((

After a while mine started rebooting again as well.
Since I did not have this problem on another WiFi network I really think it is some sort of setting in my Router. Even applying MAC addresses as a filter in the router for each connecting device does not help.
Hopefully someone with more knowledge of routers is able to find a solutions.
For what it's worth, I'm on a Huawei hg655d. I was unable to find firmware updates or downloads anywhere.

its look like we are getting somewhere...im also using Huawei but model no. HG622u.
would be nice to know if all users are using this piece of junk too and it cause our problems...

ok your rooted right? do you have the android sdk installed? if so run this
adb logcat -d > logcat.txt
(it will save in platform-tools in the android folder)
also make sure android debugging is switched on in your phone..and after the reboot happens upload the logcat.txt here. we can have a look at whats causing the problem

Hello Lloir. My phone is not rooted. Everything is original. Have not rooted it and I am not planning on rooting it either.
Being that ovik88 also has a Huawei router I think that the router really is the problem here.

i just remembered i dont think you need to be rooted, just go into development tools and enable usb debugging and follow what i said above

yup im not rooted either.
ok ill give a try..give me a sec to another self "unwantad" reboot
edit:deleted

well i found adb and writ the line but it save just txt right now stat isn it? but if it restart its not includet in there right?

some logs
here i get 3 logs hope there will be something useful...

I was unable to do that - no idea how to do that. But perhaps ovik88's logs will prove to be useful!
So far I have not been able to figure out what the problem is. I figure I'll just don't go on WiFi and wait for a software update. My data plan is fine.
Still, I wonder what it is that my phone doesn't like about this WiFi network. It's secured with WPA2 and what-not.

[Q]Some issues with CM6.0

Just rooted my 2.2 OTA today, guess i m pretty much a n00b for new ROMs and etc. Anyway, I flashed the current CM6.0(including, kernal + google addons). After boot successfully, i found there is one issue with my evo, i cannot connect to my home wireless network(no password issue). Status(showing in the menu option) repeats "scanning ---> connecting ---> authorizing --> disconnecting", and in WiFi network option, it says "disabled, secured with WPA/WPA2 PSK".
Anyone can help me out? Thank you...
Based on what you said, it is a password/authorization issue. Triple-check your password, and if you still can't figure it out, hop on #CyanogenMod on Freenode, or open a ticket in the Issue Tracker.
If you can't Google/Search enough to figure out what the Issue Tracker or Freenode are, then I'm sorry, but Android is not the OS for you.

I am having a similar issue (CM 6.0 final). In my case I get "scanning ---> connecting ---> disconnected".
I was working properly with 2.1 and 2.2 (HTC). I reseted the router and also tried open network. The rest of my wireless devices can connect to the router; only my EVO cannot.

[Q] Android 2.3.3 wifi compatability problems in custom roms

hi guys, go easy on me its my first post
love the website the guides have helped me to successfully downgrade, s-off and flash custom roms to my dhd
I searched for the answer to this question but couldnt find anything. Is there any plan for custom rom developers to fix the 2.3.3 rom wifi compatability problems with speedtouch modems, as this is the only reason i cant use 2.3.3 based roms? (a lot of people have this problem with the stock rom but it is also in leedroids new one, android rev. etc) Would like to ask this in the android dev section but i need 10 posts for that.
Thanks for the help you lot have already given me, and i love the video!
Steve
Hi, welcome and congrats on your first post.
What specifically is the problem with the wifi? Is it specific to a type of authorisation (WEP, WPA/2) issue or something else?
thanks
this is a link to a detailed description of this exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1063103.html
i really dont expect anyone to go through the hassle of reading this, so summarized it says that ever since the gingerbread 2.3.3 update the phone is capable of connecting to all modems, but cannot transfer data on certain ones (such as the speedtouch modems)
I found a good post on this in a german forum a couple of weeks ago but i cant find it now, (i'll keep looking) but it said the problem was that some modems transmit with n and some with b or something like that. and that the only answer was to wait (ages) for a stock rom update (2.3.4?) as 2.3.3 isn't compatible with these types of modems
i would have expected this had been solved in the custom roms though
this is a qoute from the link below
"It turns out the Be Box router which Be supplied, which is a THOMSON ST585v6, is not compatible but also other versions of THOMSON routers as well."
ptth://vvv.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc-desire-hd-troubleshooting/wifi-issue-with-gingerbread-update/ (change the ptth to http and vvv to www) i cant post outside links
Ok, just read through that thread. What model of Speedtouch router are you using?
One workaround is to use a static IP. Have you tried this? I can help you set this up if required.
HTC seem to blame this issue on Google, as an Android issue. Not sure about that as any ROM that uses Gingerbread would exhibit the same problem, which isn't the case.
modem is a Thompson Speedtouch ST585 v6
Thanks but i have already tried and the modem only works with dynamic IPs (tried to solve it with a static IP for ages with my dad but it didnt work xD)
This qoute from dioky on page 4 of the link below states (i'm pretty certain) the problem: (i clicked the thanks button for this answer)
"Hi there,
I have the same WiFi problems as all of you.
Furthermore I can confirm that changing ROM (ARHD or Leedroid) won't help, if you stay with Gingerbread versions, that is.
I found out that:
* Data won't flow (although connected fine) to SpeedTouch WiFi access point (b/g).
* Data won't flow (although connected fine) through D-Link DAP1360 .
* BUT: does flow (and connected fine off course) through Belkin G Plus MIMO access point (g)!
I have rechecked it by reflashing back to ARHD 3.7 returning to ARHD 5.1.7 and ARHD 5.1.4 and LeeDroiD 3.0.3.
Which in all, makes me conclude that there definitely is something on the software side concerning compatibility!
For now, I will return to ARHD 3.7 Android 2.2.1 until solution is found.
Regards,"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13922024
Does anybody know if the Rom devs.plan to solve this (or even know about this problem)?
any ideas peeps?? this is a major problem for me
You want to try giving a static IP another shot?
i'm pretty sure it wont work as i tried to solve the prob like this but whatever i did i couldnt get it to work. but i'll give it another shot. another idea would maybe be updating the modem drivers if there is such a thing?
What is your routers current firmware version? And is that a branded router?
i really have no idea. i'm a total noob with routers
can you tell me an easy way how i could find out?
Sure, are you using your PC to access the web at the minute?
If you install TeamViewer I could show you.
?????? What is that ?
Its a piece of software that will allow me to remotely control a computer.
I can confirm that I have this problem with 2.3.3 and my Thomson/SpeedTouch 585v6 (FW 6.1.4.3) too.
It seems to connect WiFi fine, even assigns an IP but nothing actually works.
Solution for Wifi problem 2.3.3
Hello!
I have the same problem on my DHD with 2.3.3
Before there is an permanent fix for this You could manually configure the IP adress in the phones Wifi and it works great.
You can not use the DHCP in the phone.

I should have mentioned that I actually have a HTC Desire (not HD). But the ROM is a 2.3.3. It actually assigns the IP via DHCP just fine.
I have already tried manually assigning the IP address (and other fields) but still no luck.
There are those who can connect with a manual IP and a few, even after assigning it manually, still can not connect.
i tried using a static IP but it doesnt work..tried for days now
sounds like i am one of the few it doesnt work for after assigning manually...
i am a total noob but i was wondering if it would be possible for a custom rom dev to take the wifi drivers from froyo and use them in a gingerbread based rom??
UPDATE
I called up my ISP requesting a newer firmware for the 585v6 router (although I know it is no longer supported). Anyway, without any hassle at all, they gave me the newer: TG585 v7 router with firmware 8.2.23.0 (pre-installed).
This connects without any problems to my 2.3.3 ROM (RCMix 2.0).

Router crashing with new Jelly Time rom

Hey guys,
I tried searching and could not find a similar problem.
Since getting the new rom I have noticed that my wireless router has been experiencing connection issues. all my devices show connectivity but i dont have access to the net. Anyways i decided to have a look and the android is creating multiple Ip entries on the router with the same mac address and everytime I turn the wifi off on my phone the problem does not occur.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have you tried going into development settings and turning of Android Debugging or ADB over network? Just a suggestion, not sure if it will work.

nah cant be that, I had them turned off already.
Thanks for replying anyway. I searched google and its a pretty common problem with no concrete solution, might need to flash the rom again.

Why don't you try binding the MAC Address to a static IP so it's no longer able to create multiple entries on the DHCP Table?
tjturko13 - have you tested to use another standard 802.11 Modus - instead "n"? Just switch it at your phone or router.
What router do you have? Can you update the firmware? ^^

i dont think my router allows this, the only option I have is to specify if I want to allow mac filtering.
Have checked out my last post about the wlan-standard?

Did you get your new rom over the air? (Stock rom)
Or did you flash a custom rom?
You have to give us more software informations about your rom. Is your device s-on or s-off?
Stock rom you need the right RUU exe file. Just doubleclick - yes yes yes
Custom rom you need to download the custom boot.img.

I'm sorry for you.
- You could even try to change the wifi-channel to 1, 4 or 6 and disable wifi-security in the second attempt for test only.
- Try also to set a static ip in your phone (for your wlan).
- If you are bored you can reset the whole router to its factory defaults and leave all standard. Just enable wlan (and the isp connection) - but dont change the default ssid, wlan-security or channel etc.
Otherwise I have no more ideas.
With google you can find dozens of users crashing their routers with android or ios phones . Good luck dude!

Ive had this problem to since switching to 'randomblame's kernel based ROMS (jellytime CM, jellytime aokp and jellytime by PACMAN - Paranoid, CM and AOKP).
Apparently it is a kernel issue and the only thing you can do is some of the things above or here
I was here hoping there might be a fix... I tried static IP, changing the router channel, WIFI never sleep etc etc etc.
The only workaround I found so far was to turn off wifi when Im done, it only seems to break when the phone is inactive for 5 minutes +.

Exact same problem here. It took some time before I figured out that my phone was overwriting my gateway's MAC address, but I finally saw that message from another machine in my network:
Code:
arp info overwritten for 192.168.1.254 by 91:31:58:5d:e8:34
1.254 being my gateway's IP. I also tried giving my phone a static DHCP entry but it just didn't change anything. Any useful sysctl maybe ?
FWIW, it seems I "fixed" that issue by making my routers MAC address association permanent on my (manageable) switch. That obviously don't fix the real problem, but does not shut down the router's NIC. FYI, on a GNU/Linux machine, this is done with the arp command, i.e.:
Code:
# arp -s 192.168.1.254 00:ca:fe:ba:be:00
192.168.1.254 being your router's IP

HTC One M8 Apps won't connect to wifi

I just bought this phone a couple days ago and it was working perfectly fine, I started downloading the updates, i eventually got to the 5.01 lollipop update and updated, I booted up and was excited to see the awesome android L features, sadly whenever I open any app (example kik, instagram, snapchat, or even google chrome) it will not connect to the internet, I used my data and it works fine, so I decided maybe it was just a bug so I did a factory reset and it still didn't fix it, so I unlocked the bootloader flashed a recovery and several custom roms which still did not fix the Wifi issue. I am stuck and don't know what to do at this point. Please help, thanks.
Hello. I have the same problem. I contacted HTC support and they admin it is software problem. Let me explain.

elephone p8000 can't access network or google play neither via wi-fi nor cellular dat

Hi there,
Excuse the novice. Just got this 2 days ago and I am still trying to figure it out why I can't access the net at all.
I have not got Android experience much and I am digging now how to come out of this situation.
So no option to access Net at all. The Error in response is " Couldn't sign in. There was communicating problem with Google servers . Try again later." So this is like a loop there.
Android Version -5.1
Baseband Varsion - MOLY.LR9.W1444.MD.LWTG.MP.V16.P10
Kernel Version - 3.10.65
Build Number -ALPS.L1.MP3.V2_NB6753.65U.L1_P22
Custom Build Version - Elephone_P8000_20151014
I must admit the Phone came preset and once I have switch it on it picked up GMT time without I have set anything.
I will appreciate any help or pointing to a resources to try to solve as now it is unusable as I can't download anything.
Thanks in advance.
Check:
Settings --> Data Usage --> (cellular provider tab) --> toggle 'enable mobile data'
See if that's the issue. Good luck.
Now Stacked to The Elephone Logo on and unresponsive.

Thanks kevvyboy,
I can't do anything right now. The phone by itself (really) got in a mode I can't read even with letters so small, went to the Android Man with red Mark and now is in front of me unresponsive with the logo of Elephone totaly unresponsive.
Just to underline - I have not touch anything- I have left it on stand by last time I have played with it.
Any clues and help please will be much appreciated.
PS. NOW I have managed to (I guess Switched it off) and again on and there was window with APP UPDATE - came to 116 out of 116 updated and now again can't access the net neither Google Play.
Could this be a OTA Update completed somehow?
Thanks everyone in advance!

Hi again,
I have enabled the cellular data - no luck again.
When I am trying google play again message Google servers can't be reached and the more interesting - using the - preload browser it try to search trough yahoo search. This phone was sold to me as new, but I am starting to wonder what it has been through before it reached me?
Will a flash using PhilZ Recovery will help?
Could someone point me the way out of this please?
Thanks!
New bizarre Message.
Hi again,
Just to make it more interesting out of the blue it Popped up a Message box with following wording.
"In a Previous Android Version You have disabled all Google App services. Do you want to enable them. Yes/NO,
Of course I have chosen Yes and Again Can't reach net neither via Cellular data nor Wi-Fi.
Any useful contribution will be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Stuck on Airplane Mode? Try toggling it on and off. I remember my HTC OneX having an Airplane Mode issue - had to toggle on / off several times and reboot.
ETA - faulty APN settings for your provider? May explain a mobile data issue, but doesn't address the wifi issue.
Dammit.
Got It Work on Cellular

Stuck on Airplane Mode? Try toggling it on and off. I remember my HTC OneX having an Airplane Mode issue - had to toggle on / off several times and reboot.
ETA - faulty APN settings for your provider? May explain a mobile data issue, but doesn't address the wifi issue.
Dammit.

Thanks Kevvyboy for your contribution.
Somehow I have managed to get the Cellular data connected and now have updated the Google Service.
WI-FI still an issue. Is there any sense - updating a driver (if I am not asking stupid question here)?
Thanks!
Glad to hear at least cellular working! The wifi issue is a bit of a mystery to me though - I'm all out of smart ideas, sorry
Hopefully some other bright soul can chip in.

Hi again,
Just to make it more interesting out of the blue it Popped up a Message box with following wording.
"In a Previous Android Version You have disabled all Google App services. Do you want to enable them. Yes/NO,
Of course I have chosen Yes and Again Can't reach net neither via Cellular data nor Wi-Fi.
Any useful contribution will be much appreciated.
Thanks!

download drivers for SP flash tools and SP flash tools program.
go and download mediatek drivers and sp flash tool.
you can get these from elephones website, google or where ever. i got mind from needarom. i used the latest versions for both.
i downloaded the 5th November 2015 firmware from elephones rom. it came pre 7-zipped. i unzipped it and left it's structure.
installing the drivers part:
you need to disable signature enforcement in your OS to install the drivers.
open SP flash tools.
load the scatter file in the official rom folder you unzipped with 7 zip.
at this point press the download button in SP tools.
switch off your phone. connect the usb cable to the phone and the computer.
you should now have the latest firmware on you phone when complete.
please note it wipes everything, so back up anything important to you.
once done, set up your apn in settings, mobile networks, access points.
wifi should work after a clean factory reset if you don't have a dodgy device.
elephone only supports 2.4ghz for wifi as far as a i know.
also make sure your network bands and are supported by the p8000.

Hi El_Nino9,
Thank you for the reply and sorry I am delaying my response. I have actually done some of the suggested previously once I read more on the site - thanks for the contributors here. I had Eragon 9.5.0 Custom ROM set with Philiz recovery tool after Mediatek driver download but the wi-fi is still an issue.
I will try to perform the the one suggested from you, I just have located the latest Elephone p8000 ROM on the Elephone site and will perform this on a first chance I have. - most probably on Friday.
Thanks once again and I will post an update from the outcome.
OK!
I have done the upgrade to the 05.11.15 Stock ROM.
Have made a Factory Reset and the Wi-Fi is working as before but I can't reach internet basically.
Again after attempts to get to Play Store or to or to perform a simple Google Search it comes again after message "Just a second" and after 20- 30 seconds it end up with the message.
"Google Server can't be reached at the moment please try again later."
Any help on this will be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot in advance!
P.S>
I have just discovered that the icon of the WI - FI showing a processes going on but I can't reach My Router URL for example through the Local network.
Does it mean this is really dodgy unit or I am missing any settings or there is any cure for this?
Thanks again!

so your mobile data still works on the latest firmware? specially after typing the correct apn settings?
regarding your wifi, where is the router in relation to your position? far away? standing right next to it with the phone? whats your encryption for your wifi? tried changing that to a different type and seeing if it connects?
if you have big concrete walls and live in a nice solid building that may too cause signal not to reach. the wifi isn't that great on the device speaking from experiance in comparison to other devices.
if all fails... possibly dodgy device

Hi EL_Nino9,
I guess either the p8000 not like my D-LinkDIR-655 router or I am missing something in general.
I have an extension for the other rooms and the phone connecting to a simple TP-Link with no hassle at all, but D-Link is like a brick wall - you see the wi-fy working but no internet access.
It is still a mystery.
At least is proven the wi-fi module is working.
Believe me - I have tried to alter the setting on the route and still can't get to the net content.
Will keep exploring this and will report if any luck.
Thnaks!
I´m facing the same issue here. Google-Services like Google-Photo, Gdrive, Inbox are not working. Any solutions so far?
Looks Like I have rooter WI-FI issues

Hi kraftmaschine - I have discovered that my aged D-LInk DIR-655 was giving me problems dropping out the signal. I had an access through mobile network and through my other room extension rooter, so I got on mind either compatibility issue or router problem. So I have upgraded the router and voila. Everything got sorted.
Also upgrade to the latest mod - not OWA but using the standard methods described here.
Hope that helps.
