Weird Wi-Fi Issue (Will not connect)

[jm85]

First of all, I am running verion 4.1.2 on an LG Spectrum2 that has never been rooted. I posted this in the Spectrum2 forum with no success

So, lately my phone will not connect to Wi-Fi. It isn't in airplane mode and the wi-fi is turned on. When I attempt to connect to ANY network (work, home, public wi-fi in stores), I select my network, push connect and then the network disappears from the list of available networks. The network will then reappear a few minutes later. My 3g/4g also stopped working for a while so I did factory reset. This fixed my data issue, but not my wifi issue...

Please help.


Thanks

Have you made any progress with this issue? It sounds like a possible hardware problem. Did the 3G/4G issue and the Wi-Fi issue appear at the same time? If it was a firmware issue the reset probably would have fixed both, unless it originated with a hardware failure.

No progress. The 3g/4g issue appeared a day or two after the Wi-Fi stopped working. I hadnt had a firmware update for a few months. I am starting to lean toward a hardware issue also.

hmm, you might want to go into your carrier store and explain the issue.

Sounds like something hardware related.

You could try and fastboot and push a new copy of the firmware onto your device.

Well, tell me if this is happening with all of the wireless networks or its limited to some because I have noted this in my device to when i tried connecting with some of the wireless networks they disappears from the list and after a while that network again shows up but never connects. I think this issue may be because of the low signal or.... try connecting it with some different network.

I guess it could be with select networks, but it has been every network I've tried (probably 7 or 8 different networks).

I have had several conversations with phone/chat support, and while they couldn't diagnose my phone issue, I do have tons of information about the Verizon EDGE program. I guess I'll have to take it in to a store.
