I am experiencing the same issue, same phone and rom i9195 JDQ39.I9195XXUBMJ7. Wifi works after reboot for about 10 minutes and then stops responding. It may stay connected for a few hours after it stops working, but the phone can't send data over it.
I have wiped data/factory reset the phone to no avail.
I read somewhere about a few people with other devices on 4.2 having troubles with AES encryption on their routers. Might be somewhere for us to start troubleshooting. The other option is to just try downgrading to the previous version.

[Q] SM-P905 no WiFi after OTA upadte (encrypted)

Hello XDA friends
The device Galaxy Note PRO 12.2 (LTE) SM-P905 was with TGY P905ZSUANB1 firmware.
Device is with stock rom, never rooted and fully encryped.
After OTA updade it becomes to P905ZSUANG1 firmware and WiFi gone, it shows saved networks but didn't find any signal. (Restarted many times. Moile data works well. )
I decrypt device.
Donwload whole P905ZSUANG1 firmware and update via ODIN. WiFi back again and everything fine.
Today, it was new OTA update P905ZSUANH1 and device goes in same situation: WiFi not finding any network.
It will take me some time again to download newer FW, decrypt device, update via ODIN and encrypt it again.
My questions are:
Is it normal to behaviour or problem is with current device/firmwares?
Anyone have similar problem updating OTA on ENCRYPTED (any other) device?
________________________________________________________________________
P.P.
I decrypt again device.
Update via odin to P905ZSUANH1.
WiFi not works
Downgrade via odin to P905ZSUANG1.
WiFi back to to live an works again.
Decide to make a test.
Update via odin to P905ZSUANH1 (not OTA).
WiFi not works
Again downgrade via odin to P905ZSUANG1.
WiFi WORKS!
Totally disable OTA update checking.
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 - Solution to WiFi problem!!!
The problem is interesting for a few reasons. This happened to me exactly the same way. Took the device to service and was fully erased and rebooted. Worked fine immediately after until I activated my services with google, dropbox... Then wifi again was not visible and only the saved wifi from the service dealer visible. Went into Wi-Fi > Advanced and disabled "Passpoint" and all was well again. Somehow some service triggered enabling of Passpoint causing the problem. Who was it? Google or Dropbox?

WIFI will not turn on

Hi guys i have a lg g3 that has been running fine on kitkat
it the received the lollipop update OTA and all went fine apart from now it wont turn the WiFi on
you can click it on and it moves to on but seems to be always trying to turn on..?? without turning on.?
any ideas..?
I have done a reset etc still no joy
Did you try to reflash? (I think that you mean by resetting that you full wiped your phone and not reflashed the rom)

Same issue here.
I get around it by forgetting network then just signing in again. Wifi works perfectly until I leave the house and return later. Then I just do the above and viola, working wifi.
I've checked with speed test app and wifi is definitely working.
Funny thing is, if I switch off wifi then turn back on it also works.
Only when ive left home and returned later does this bug arise.
Hello guys,
This thread is a little bit old, but I am curious to know if you found a workaround for this issue.
I have the same problem as the OP (not at the second poster): since I received Stock Lollipop the WiFi won't turn on. When I try to, it says "turning on" for a while then acts like it is off.
I just bought my LG G3, NCIX the reseller, refuses to refund me or replace my phone...
I performed several factory resets and tried to flash different KK stock Roms. The weird thing is that the WiFi works with KK...
Thanks for your help.
Identical experience here.
I recently got a D855 16GB, which was on stock unbranded V10a, jumped through several OTA updates through V10g, V10j, and V10k (IIRC) all with wifi working fine before getting the lollipop upgrade OTA for V20c.
Immediately wifi will not switch on - the switch itself is on, but with the off section a lighter grey compared to the bluetooth switch.
On the wifi screen itself it says "Turning Wi-Fi on..." but after a while the switch reverts to off.
It's now had OTAs to V20e and V20h, but wifi is dead on both versions.
Note that this is stock and unrooted (never rooted) so I can't believe it's something I've done. Next trick will be to root and poke around /data/misc/wifi.
Does bluetooth work or the problem is only with the wifi? I also have the same problem, wifi, bluetooth is not working and when I check in the settings the mac adress it says "unknown".

Accountability
Unfortunately this isn't a unique problem. There have been countless bad updates from multiple manufacturers. In this litigious world, I'm surprised no one has sought damages for bad updates that effect usability.
I have the same problem from yesterday. wifi and bluetooth seem to be turning on but they never turn on. i've done many factory resets but it didn't work. has someone found a solution?
^^^ Exactly the same issue. Would love a solution!
Same issue. Tried Hard and soft reset and have also updated firmware using LG Mobile Support Tool but had no success.

ok, after 24h with this problem I think I got it back to working. Let me explain what have I done:
1. Mine is a dual sim model, that I bought in hong kong by the end of 2014.
2. Yesterday, I removed sim #2 (no longer needed), without removing the battery. I had a couple of messages indicating to restart the phone, blah blah. Can't remember if I finally restarted it or not.
3. This morning I saw no wifi connection in my phone, only 3G. Tried to start wifi in the quick access menu, but this kept blinking, never starting wifi. Restarting phone... nothing. turning off bluetooth... nothing.
I figured out that the problem had to be related with the SIM as this is the last thing I had done with the phone. Thus, I tried this, with success:
4. I turned off the phone, changed sim from slot #1 to slot#2 and started the phone. Wow, it worked for some minutes, then stopped, then started again. Well, a good sign.
5. Changed again sim from slot #2 to slot #1: Wifi working again. After some time it stopped working, but soon started again. Hasn't given me more problems (after only 30 min, that's true).
Hope it helps.

HELLO
I have exactly the same problem and I think we're not the only...
D855 :
-Wifi and Bluetooth doesn't work.
-Wifi keep turning on itself and the battery drain..
-3g/4g works perfectly.
-Downgraded on kk and Wi-Fi works so it is not a hardware issue
-Even on fulmics Rom Wi-Fi and Bluetooth doesn't work
HEELP ME PLEASE
Got the same problem here. I have my G3 since november 2014 and recently I rooted it to install CM 13 on it and Xposed bcs I got tired of the laggy software of LG. One morning I woke up to drink some water and saw my phone restarting a lot of time... ok I thought its a simple bootloop. Tried to install CM again, didnt fix it. Flashed stock software and still... Bought new battery and new power flex and the problem is still there. I go into download mode, installed the software with LGs support tool and got pass the bootloop, but now wifi nor bluetooth works. I thought it's the software so I dared myself again to root it and installed TWRP and CM13, but it wouldn't boot. I installed then Liquidsmooth, based on CM13, and got it to boot up, but in the configuration menu where WiFi is needed to be added it couldn't turn on. I skiped it and in the middle of the process it started again to restart. I don't know if it's a hardware based problem or software... But I would like to try everything out before I have to buy a new phone.

Have you maybe tried to change the kernel of your device? I have never done that so I am scared if I would damage something.

Here someone says it's the kernel that is having problems and installing a new one and going maybe back to the old one will fix it.

I installed CM13 and in the setup screen I actually had wifi and I could connect to my router. It was kinda strange. But bcs I have some problems beside wifi, the reboot thing, I couldn't test out if it works too. Try flashing CM13 or ROMs that are based on it like Liquidsmooth. Maybe it will help.

WiFi issue after ota tab 3 7in SM-T210

Hi all i recently bought a no fault customer returned tab 3 7in SM-T210, Today I received my tab 3 and after the first boot I was offered an update, Build number KOT49H.T210XXBOA3, dated 22 jan 2015 at 110mb.
After the update had finished I was unable to connect to my WiFi, it would say connected but the settings app would freeze sometimes with the message that settings is not responding, if I do manage to get out of the settings I am unable to use the internet as all apps say no connection, even though the WiFi icon is showing as connected. I have also found that changing the screen off time to 1 minute cause's the device to soft reboot ( No Samsung galaxy tab 3 screen / bootloader )
I have tried doing factory reset but that didn't help,
Could flashing the full 828mb stock ROM via Odin possibly fix these issues?
And if I do use Odin to flash stock my warranty should remain?
Sorry for the long winded post, and thanks in advance for any advice given

Why is t210 so many issue? seriously!?
If one thing i need to clarify that doing any custom modification on the device will spoil your warranty. However if you did firmware stuff from kies will not remove your warranty. I would choose to flash into new firmware by using odin. But if your case you can do a factory reset then followed by kies and see if it is working. If it is not, download stock firmware from the net and flash it with odin.
thanks @Jacker31 for the response, i know about voiding warranty there is no custom software on it YET lol, only just got it out of the box, i am new to Samsung devices so i will do some research into kies, just don't want to void my warranty trying to sort it out.

I don't know if it's the same problem with my wife's tab t210. when you turn on the wifi it connects but around many seconds, the wifi icon is gone. and in settings the wifi freeze. i've done rebooting, restore factory settings but it didn't fix the problem. but when i try it to connect via my phone tethering it connects and the wifi icon stays. i check the tethering settings it was put on wpa2, but on my router it was just on wpa. So i change it to wpa2 and the problem on my wife's tab is gone.

Hi guys, so I installed kies3 but when I click the firmware upgrade button I get this message 'SM-T210' dose not support initializing. even though i had USB debugging selected. I also tried while the device was unplugged by entering the model and serial numbers but got the same response.
If I flash a stock firmware by Odin will the device log it on the flash counter? as it came with a 12 month warranty and i will send it back if i cannot fix it myself.

You should send it back because of the warranty, anything could happen (I meant for the warranty) if we do something.

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.
