[Q] very weird Xperia p wifi problem - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hey all. I have this weird wifi problem with my Xperia P running JB. \
When i connect to my home wifi "linksys" It refuses to upload
. It does not load Facebook app.
Or any market.
Or whatsapp or viber contact sync.
Or kik or im+
or any messenger send.
So typically. It's "up" data problem.
But the weird part is when my brother connects to our home wifi
. Everything works like a charm.
IT's not my phone error though. BECAUSE when i connect to friend's wifi.
Everything works like a charm too.
so it's about the router and my Android? But IT USED TO WORK before 4 months. I TRIED cyanogenmod 10 and 10.1 AND ICS.
but nothing works. Plus all vpns aren't connecting. Anyone please got a solution to this?

How do you make it is "up" problem?
Every "down" operation has some "up", even oppening the connection.
Could be some incompatibility between the router and the phone software.
Try different security methods or non at all.

b
But i tried all security methods and none for the router.
I tried other phone softwares.
Google chrome gives me errors 408 and 324.
That server closed the connection without sending any data.
I think it might be a restriction on my network or something? :/
Sorry I'm pretty noob

Shouldn't be any restriction on your network unless you have applied any.
In wifi settings connection show as connected?
Have you tried other routers?

[Q] WiFi issue

Hi, recently I bought a SGS2 and rooted, install many roms, but with all roms have one issue: WiFi. When wifi is connected some times internet does`t work, said conection problems, I turn off and again on and it`s working for some time, then again conection problems. Anyone have same problem??? How fixed??? Thanks in advance
Does your wireless internet connection have a password?
If so is the password entered correctly?

Maybe you could, let the phone forget the connection (delete it) and then try it again.

restart your wireless router or access point, see if that helps!
Maybe you have the wrong modem.
Take a look in the Modem Collection thread in the Android development section.
It often happens after installing custom ROMs

my phone does this, turn wifi on then use wifi turn phone off. when I want to use phone again no wifi! I have to turn wifi off and on again on phone.

i think this is a kernel issue coz of the rom installed!
try reconfiguring ur router but after forgeting the network on ur phone and c how this works out!
My phone has had this problem since new. It stayed through stock firmwares KE1, KE2, KE7 and KF1, and has also occured through all Lite'ning Rom versions. I notice it's happening to users of a number of other roms, but isn't a widespread problem.
I have tried reconfiguring routers and forgetting the connection, but the problem persists. Very annoying, but not enough for me to send the phone back to the UK for repair (I'm in New Zealand!).
The problem is not resolved under the leaked 2.3.4 either, I've already heard of someone with the same problem on the 2.3.4 version of DarkyRom2.
Edit: Wifi is set to never sleep. Even cycling through this setting does not help.
those who have problem with WIFI try to reflash back your root application like CF-Root...then your WIFI should be working again...

Galaxy S II Wifi Problem (Need to Restart It to properly work)

Hi guys, in this days i have noticed a problem with my gsII.
Sometimes I have the gsII connected to my router but internet connection doesn't work.
I'll try to explain better what i mean... I start wifi on my gsII and use internet connection without problem. Then I set the phone in standby mode leaving wifi on. When after a while i want to use internet connection, it doesn't work. The telephone is still connected to my router but i can't use internet on the phone.
The only way to make internet connection work is to disable wifi e then reactivate it.
This is really frustrating....
I've got the telephone from three months but only now I'm noticing this problem because first I used to disable the wifi and activate it only when i need it.
Am I the only to have this problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks to everyone in advance... any help would be appreciated
A video is more than thousands of words, so this is an "example video" of the bug:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4um-AqLk1jw
Test it with a different router, i.e. Cisco E4200.
It would a good idea but i have to buy a new router or go to some friend's house for 2-3 hours. I'll keep this idea in my mind thanks
I have this problem, mines a bt home hub v3. Don't think its the router I blame the phone. I have to restart phone to make it connect with ability to use internet

I do not know what " standby mode" is? I have the same phone and have no problems with wifi. The phone goes to sleep when I do not use it and awakes when I use it.
It seems that your phones wifi is sleeping and not waking up. I always turn it off when not using it anyway. Not the full answer but it works for me.

I believe I know and had the problem you describe.
For me the Wifi would work perfectly at first and then after the phone had been left for a while I would try to use it and get 'no connection' type errors. Sometimes it would even stop working even if I just waited too long with the phone still on in my hand.
I found that if I either disabled router wifi security or set it to WEP the problem disappeared. The issue occurred on 2.3.3. My router is a DLink one fyi. I have yet to test 2.3.4 which came out yesterday in Sweden. Ill let u know.

Ehm...For standby mode I mean that I lock the phone, I only shut down the display....understand what I mean?
If you turn wifi off when you don't use it, you'll never see this bug. Try to leave wifi on for some hours if you want to understand if also your gsII has this bug.
I don't use wifi very often, but I do notice this problem with 3G data. Modem problem? I'm using kh3.

I tried changing the channel also. I have heard others getting this to work. Didn't work for me. You can use Wifi Analyser app on phone to find a clear channel and see how u go changing your router perhaps?
I tried re flashing also using factory restore. No fix for me.
Also noticed that u can sometimes get phone to work by toggling Network Data on/off. Not really fun either.
The wifi channels and security settings I am talking about are settings in the router not the phone. What wifi security are you using in your router?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I am not a believer the router is at fault in any case. I would entertain an incompatibility but nothing more.
Original router and security settings work fine for...wait for it...an iphone 3gs and a Motorola Defy (yes the phone which seems to have issues with doing everything else!)
Either way an incompatibility is not acceptable either if that's what it is

I know this, and in fact i have to switch off and on wifi connection when this happens.
Now i'm trying to use channel 5 with the router ( but yesterday I've tested channel 6 and 13 without any result)
I hate this bug because beacause it happens only when he wants! I'm quite sure that assistance wouldn't solve the problem. A friend of mine has changed three gsII and said that every gsII that he has changed had this bug!
Ps: Another question.... How often do you have this bug?
Once a week? Once a day? Three times a day?

i have the same problem reported in the 1st post.
i have been turning wifi off and then on again for a quick fix until now but i think the solution might be to drop the security on the router from WPA to WEP. Haven't tried it yet tho, because it doesn't bother me that much.
I had an ipad previously (before i had the SGS2) and it had exactly the same behaviour. I looked up the problem then and found a FAQ from the ISP that mentioned a compatibility problem between ipad and that router, so their suggestion was to set the router to WEP only.

Easily more than 3 times a day but then I use the phone a lot.
Problem had never occurred when I used only 3G. That was my workaround when I got fed up with it before I dropped the wifi security.

For me it happens always after the phone comes back from stand by with wifi on.
steps to reproduce:
1-turn wifi on, and check it's connected and working
2-press power button to turn off screen
3-turn phone back on, try to access a new web page, it doesn't work
I noticed that while it's in stand by i will still receive email notifications so it probably only looses the connection when i turn it on again.
Also, if there was some program working (say, a download) when i went into standby it will probably still be transferring when it comes out of stand by, it's just the new connections that fail.

WIFI connection gets weak when S3 trys to connect

Hi
I have a very weird problem with Galaxy S3.
The problem is that suddenly out of the blue, the phone no longer connected to my home wifi, which it had no problems connecting to it.
the signal is extremely weak, and only connects to it when you sit next to the router.
When you forget the connection, the bars go up and connection looks very strong. as soon as you start connecting to it, it drops to the way it was, and not getting connected.
All other stuff I have (laptop and other phones) work perfectly, so not a router thing
I have rooted and updated to the latest ROM, but still same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
is this happening with all wifi networks or just ur home network. If only on home network then try turning off your router and then restart it after some time to see if thats causing the problem.
also have u installed any updates/roms recently?

Well, I have not tried any other wifi, but I have another phone and laptop that work perfectly with the same router.
I also restarted the router, but nothing's happened.
I installed another ROM, but this time it keeps asking for password as it says it is incorrect. but as soon as I stand next to the Router, it hooks up to it with same supposedly incorrect password.

Had similar problem and I think a few people experienced this where suddenly the phone stops playing nicely with WPA2 security, so that's worth looking into

Dear all,
I have tried every solution there is, tried so many routers , work, hotels, cafes ..nothing same problem keeps coming up - authentication error occurred.

I have since replaced firmware many times, have replaced the antenna, but nothing ...same problem.
Any help please, I am out of ideas!!!
The only idea for me is dump it and buy an iphone!

I have all security/no security. Is there any solution?????
i can also try to repair my phone, provided someone can explain what to repair.
Looking for a response.
Same problem
Hi,
I have the exact problem.
Wifi works when phone close to router (2-3 metres). When away it still shows connected but wont have internet access.
If I try to connect little away from router with full wifi signal, it says "Saved Secured" or Authentication error.
Tried flashing different stock roms but still same problem. Tried resetting router. Tried changing router channel and disabling security. But still same.
Anyone fixed this issue?

Okay, well that seems to be it, switching to Mobile Data. But why? It's always worked before over wifi and nothing has changed in my Internet status or on my phone. Same internet, same cable modem, same router, same ROM with the same settings. And I've rebooted modem, router, and phone. What can I look for that could be blocking Themer beta from working on my phone (GNII) over wifi that has changed since 2 days ago?
Edit: Unless Google is hiding some kind of firewall tweak inside a recent Search or YouTube update, I'm stumped!
Edit 2: All other Internet services on the phone including T-Mobile wifi calling are working normally.
The issue to me is themer same thing data works fine wifi a pain in arse,as you say this has only been an issue over the last couple of days.Also now running very sluggish,everything else again is running fine over wifi just themer having issue
Problem solved, sort of: I've isolated the issue to my own Charter cable connection. It works fine on mobile or wifi data connection outside of my own location. In my Motorola cable box, if I go to the firewall settings, and change the firewall protection to "none," Themer works. But if I change it to "Low," it doesn't, even though I've always had it on "low." Guessing they pushed out an update or changed something on the backend.
Can anyone tell me what port (if not port 80) that Themer uses on the phone to connect to themer servers?
