Hey,
So I got this watch today and I like it, besides the interface lagging sometimes. But I can't connect to wifi because I can't enter my wifi password. Eveytime I click to "enter on phone" thing it pops up with : "Phone is not nearby or bluetooth is off."
This is the catlog from the point of clicking on a network to the error:
http://pastebin.com/raw/4CANVnp8
I've done several factory resets, clearing my phones play service data, removing AW etc. It's
I'm really out of ideas, other functions like "show on phone" works great as well as the "Ok google" function.
Is there a way to enter my password through ADB or directly through my watch?
Thanks!
I was having a similar issue and got WiFi to finally connect by adding the network manually.

I can't do that either, same error. This is quite disappointing.
You can't enter any information on the watch? Or you can enter it on the watch but when you finish you get that error? You shouldn't have to open the phone the setup the wifi network

Hey I've already return this unit. I'm going to purchase the 46mm version soon.
But when I tried to connect it said I had to enter the wifi password on my phone. As In a popup dialog. But right after clicking OK, it gave that error.
Let's hope the next one doesn't do this. ?

I've got this issue that's driving me mad.
I use the WiFi option heavily at home and since upgrading to WM6 I seem to find that WiFi dismissal is not being retained.
Every time I switch on wireless the next doors router pops up as a new network detected. Each time I tell it to "don't show this message again" but it takes no notice.
I thought it might be the ROM but I have tried a few with the same result.
If anyone knows a way to get it to retain the dismissal or know a way to set the default profile it would be most appreciated.
At the moment I'm using PDAVIET transformer 1.1.
Thanks in advance.
TB.
After it tells you that it detected next door's router, press the power button twice quickly.

I have just tried that and it does nothing.
Even if I dismiss the detected Wifi network is still comes back. Press power twice quickly it then re-appears.
Any other suggestions.
the same problem... wifi don't establish wireless connection
Hi, i have the same problem, i wish to know if there's any way to debug what's happening... i tried without mac filtering, open/open, and open/wep... but i cant connect to my home router thru my kaiser (tytn ii).
After trying a few WM6 all with these kinds of issues I went back to official WM5

So I went into my setting to see if the update happened to be out but when I clicked the "check for update" button it didn't even have a pop up to let me check or even tell me that my device is up to date. Any thoughts on why this is?
Make sure .....
A) you setup a Samsung acct on your settings, accounts and sync
B) connected to a wifi with full open internet. My work wifi sometimes rejects email and some work protocols.
C) reboot your tab just incase a task killer or something killed a dependant process for the update or the OS is being querky.
I tried update and got nothing. Doubt anything will be on until at least midnight pacific ... but who knows where the US servers are for the Wifi tabs.

All that is set up correctly it's like the service isn't running or something. When I click check for updates it acts as though I never clicked it no pop up or anything.
Something to try, no guarantee: go to the app info for the app "Google Play services", go into Storage and clear the cache....do a restart of the device and try again. If it works I cannot tell you why (and I have asked Android support for that type of help...no really good answer).
Rooted the phone then applied the OTA update and since then i keep getting a wifi error. Im currently out of the country so can't connect to sprint. Any ideas?
Anyone?

Yup, had this problem after applying this OTA.
When I click the checkbox to enable wifi, it just shows "error" and does not enable wifi.
A factory reset fixed it for me.
My wifi turns on and connect but won't give me any data

The Atrix has a driver related issue that causes problems connecting to WiFi access points in certain countries. I'm pretty sure they have figured out a workaround over in the Atrix XDA section, sorry I don't have a link for you.
Hi,
My name is Fisher, I have the same problem, I have the phone in Australia and I updated over wifi then my wifi just says error underneath it, also 4G does not work. I can turn wifi on by first putting the phone into aeroplane mode then restarting and turning wifi on while still in aeroplane mode. I have managed to get all working occasionally by having aeroplane mode and wifi on, then going to system updates which are greyed out then turning off aeroplane mode by holding down the power button and when ive done that i have a second or so before the wifi dies to click motorola software update that is now not greyed and it sometimes kicks everything on;-)
I have tried factory resetting the phone 3 times and formatting internal sd on third time, did nothing.
Now i have some dmesg logs with the wifi under error, working in aeroplane mode and all working with my trick, so let me knowif u want them all.
I have a feeling the issue could be a sprint app or process that disables it, look at the access/security settings for sprint zone, it can control wifi, everything seems to be briefley activated when i start the phone in the notification bar then wifi and 4g die, so maybe a sprint process detects that the phone has not activated or something and kills wifi and 4g.
I have reported this on the motorola forum in the thread someone else started, look for " motorola photon wifi error" in google and it might be the first hit.

Sounds good. Ill give that a shot. Lemme know if you find out more
Mine is working fine, though today I turn WIFI off and my battery had a run away effect. The battery drained 30% in 10 min and the phone was at 116 degrees. It also rebooted itself twice but now it is fine and I turned wifi on and off a few times and no ill effect.
and yep I have the update.
Wifi ERROR after OTA update
hello everyone
i am not a US resident and i bought this amazing phone i am using Cellcom Israel Sim card
i just saw the firmware update,the update run smooth but after the reboot i try'd to turn Wifi on
and getting an ERROR.
try'd to reboot the phone - wifi not working
try'd to pull out the battery and restart - wifi not working
the only thing that works is when i restart the phone in AIRPLANE MODE the wifi works
but soon as i turn the AIRPLANE MODE off the wifi disconnected and cannot turn
it on again until turn back the AIRPLANE MODE again.
i do not using any data plan connection i dont have any...
what can i do??
Just do a factory reset. That will solve this problem.
Its a known problem. Lot of people are facing it after applying OTA. Just do factory reset and you should be fine.

Factory reset doesnt do a thing bro
Hi, I had the same issue actually watch the router and say the wifi connect and then drop, i installed wifi manager and then for some reason it started working and i haven't had a issue since.
no sure why it did this but i also restarted the phone multiple times trying to get it syncing and it wouldn't until that program was installed then after i got connected i uninstalled the app and it still connects without the app
got installed "wifi manager" and again error "error enabling wifi"
Factory resetting does nothing for me, I even formatted the internal memory as well on the third time, the only way so far I have managed to turn wifi and 4g back on and also data as data seems disabled is by:
Enable aeroplane mode, restart and then enable wifi, then go to system updates and you will see the 3 options greyed out, disable aeroplane mode by holding down the power button then click on update motorola software and most of the time that has worked for me.
kc_sheets mentioned installing wifi manager, I have installed it but not restarted my phone as I've managed to get it all temporarily working and Ill test the wifi manager when I have to restart.
Let me know if anyone else can get them all working using my method.
For troubleshooting, I know dmesg is good and probably lsmod, what other linux info can help me find out what the issue it, I would not be surprised if sprint has done something to disable wifi, 4g and data as the phone starts up, but it looks like it only disables at the last minute, does anyones wifi connect as you start the phone up, I think mine may have done.
I'm hoping we can just rename the process or app that is the issue and have a non crippled phone what we paid good money for.
Fisher
just flashed the phone and guess what??
wifi working again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! w000ttttttttttttttttt
----------------------
after reboot the wifi error starts again.
that means no luck
I'm also out of the States and I just started having wifi issues today. It would see the SSID, try to obtain IP, then fail. I just set a static IP, default gateway, etc... and that did the trick.

my problems are with the wifi connection its not even trying to connect or activated its getting an error when i press the wifi button.
Posted on motorolla forum:
Hey guys, same problem - briefly:
Sprint customer - overseas for the next 6 months,
1. OTA update successful, achieved over wifi
2. phone restarted, wifi connectivity lost "error" as with fisher and the rest
3. airplane mode allows wifi connection until GSM is connected again, at which point it gets knocked off
4. I /also/ fat fingered my phone during one of the restarts and had both wifi and GSM working, but it's my nature to test things, so i restarted and of course now it's gone.
5. I am not able to attempt wally's re-register with Sprint approach as I will be away from the states untill January
6. I tried the update sprint zone fix - no luck
7. I tried the disable roaming guards - same as fisher, some of them are green and grayed out, no luck
Thank you !
Hello everyone.
Today I left my phone (galaxy S2) in my cousin's hand, and he tried to unclock my screen lock pattern. After too many attempts, my phone got lcoked and it asked me to sign in using my google account. I did so, and the phone got unlocked.
But when I press the lock button, or the phone gets locked automatically and I press the lock button to unlock it, the "too many pattern attempts" screen comes back again. Also my sim card is not being detected even though its there.
I have tried rebooting the phone, disabling the screen lock patten in security settings, disabling google account. Nothing has helped so far!
When you disabled the screen lock setting, what happens? You could try booting into recovery and wiping cache. If that doesn't work, then you'll probably have to factory reset.
When I disable it, nothing happens, as in it shows that it is disabled on the security settings. But when I press the lock button, the too many attempts screens comes back again. I tried a fctory reset too. Its still there! This is so frustrating!
Flashing a new rom should do the trick.
No you don't have to Flash
Try this please:
It was all about this "Two-Step Verification" security of google!
I tried everything... and I mean EVERYTHING (except flashing my XooM), but at the edge of giving up, I signed into my google account and issued an "Application Specific Password" for Xoom from my Google account.
I used my [email protected] with that Application Specific Password and it worked. (do not enter spaces in the password)
There is one solution
Hello,
I had similar problem with my Motorola Xoom WiFi. My friends was playing with my tablet and they was trying to guess my login pattern. Unfortunately sign in via Google account did not worked and WiFi network was turned off. So I was looking for way how to unlock it without root access.
Finally I found it. I wrote an application which turns on WiFi. It is quite simple. There is one requirement, you have to have enabled debuge mode. After installing app via IDE (eg. Eclipse) WiFi is connected to known network and you can log in with your Google account. There is also possibility to set network parameters in app code before compilation.
I hope this helps someone with this problem. At the end I want apologize for my poor english
Regards...

Sometimes simple is best. If you saved the rom, go into recovery and restore the saved rom.
Greetings,
Yesterday a friend of mine tried to unlock my other friend's Evo 3D, which was secured by a lockscreen pattern.
He managed to fail too often and now it needs to be reset via the Google-Account.
You can still access camera and can be called, but she cannot access any other feature, including opening the status bar.
Unfortunately, the unlock does not work. After entering username/password it says "Invalid username or password" (in German)
She is absolutely sure, that the Google Account she entered is the one she was using on that phone.
Also, she reset her Google password after that happened because she wasn't too sure about the old password. So I guess the phone somehow needs to connect to the internet to know about the current password (otherwise she needs to use the old password, right?)
She can log in on Google and access the Play Store on her Notebook though, but somehow no Apps show up on there.
I can access the Bootloader, but when trying to enter Recovery the phone displays an image of a phone icon with a red warning triangle with a exclamation mark in it (see attachment)
The phone then doesn't reply to any input, so I have to take out the battery and reinsert it.
USB debugging is not activated, so I guess any way over adb doesn't work?
My question here is: Are there any ways to restoring the phone without losing her contacts, messages etc.?
If not I think a factory reset from the bootloader at least would get her phone working again.
Thanks in advance!
I heard Samsung phones compare the Google username and password with the Google-Account on the device, that way the phone doesn't need an internet connection for verification. This also means the new Google password will not work - it must be the old one! I guess HTC does the same, so keep that in mind.
Perhaps you also need to enter the EXACT same username. The google account creation on android accepts "username", "[email protected]", "[email protected]". So maybe the phone is registered for "[email protected]" but you only enter "user" in the username field?
I hope this helps!

She already tried using the old password (and others) and is always using her full accountname ([email protected]), and it still doesn't work :/ thanks for the response, though!
Any other tips?
Edit: Turns out she was using a wrong account... now she's got the right one, where her Apps show up on Play Store on her laptop.
Unfortunately, it still won't work. She has never changed her password on that account.
Edit 2: She did a factory reset now, because she didn't want to wait anymore. So I guess this can be closed, thanks for the help though!
