HTC One M7 :: WiFi Notifications Showing Available Networks Even Have Option Turned Off
Dec 11, 2013
I just upgraded from the Evo 4g LTE. So far so good except for one issue. I'm having problems w/ wifi notifications showing available networks even though I have the option turned off. I did a search and saw that several folks have had the issue but no resolution that I found. Is this a bug w/ 4.3 or am I missing a setting?
2 weeks ago my wifi wasn't even turning on, no matter what i tried, the wifi button was always on off.
Then today it just randomly worked and I was able to turn on my wifi, it allowed me to use my wifi network for 5 min.
I decided to turn the wifi off then on again, and now it doesn't scan for networks. So even though my wifi is on, there are no list of networks I can choose to join.
edit: Smart network switch is always off, because mobile data is always disabled for me, Also i cannot find reply button.
Is it possible for certain wifi networks to affect push notifications? For example, my notifications from USAToday come through on my home wifi network, but not on my work wifi network. However, the notifications came through on both networks just fine using my GS4.
My phone will not show any available wifi networks, I have tried reseting it and restoring it, still nothing-yes wifi is on in settings and I do have home wifi that Ihave never had an issue before.
Dis has really been a source of worry to me. I have searched through the forum but no solution has been offered thus far.I am in nigeria and use mtn nigeria carrier. But so far, only 2G or '3G and 2G' options are available on my device.
I have just unlocked an ex-corportate Blackberry Curve 8520. However, in the 'Manage Connections' section, there is only the option to turn on and off my 'mobile network' and 'bluetooth'. I looked up the specs of this phone online and all of the websites claim that the phone comes with wi-fi capabilities and I assume that since this phone was released in late 2009 that it has wi-fi.
My iphone asked if I wanted to update and I hit yes. It said to plug into ITunes so I did. My only option is to "restore". It didn't ask if I want to backup first.I don't have service on phone and I don't want to restore. How can I go back to "not" restoring?
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S5 and the S Planner-calendar. I am also syncing with my Google calendar. The thing is, I never need notifications for appointments, I look at the calendar from time to time anyway. So, I allways turn of the notifications but I still get them, the kind of turn themselves back on after a while and I get both notifications by push AND by email.
I have a Galaxy S5 on Verizon. I currently use the gmail app for my personal email and the email service on the phone for my work email. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to turn off notifications for the work email. They show up in both the status bar and as the number of emails I have on the email icon. I have tried going to settings through the email app itself, and I think I have unchecked everything there. I have also tried going through application manager. When I go through the application manager, there is a box to check that says "show notifications", but it's checked and will not let me UNcheck it.
For the last 2 days I have been getting a notification sound (that I've never heard before) when I get a new email and it continues to go off until I actually open my email. I have checked every setting I can think of and no luck.
Seems that even when I turn off synchronize accounts I still receive notifications so obviously the phone still synchronizes. Most annoying is the Yahoo mail app.
I have even checked my phone to my wife's S6 and as far as I can see, our settings are the same yet her phone doesn't vibrate when she gets a notification.
I've turned off all Facebook notifications on the settings, but I still get an alert chime anytime one of my friends does something on facebook. How can I shut it off completely?
I've restarted the phone and reset network settings several times. Airport mode is off. This occurs in multiple WiFi hotspots that are recognized by other iPhones purchased at the same time. Apple wants to be paid to help (phone is 7 months old).
Got the phone not quite a week ago, and as of today the screen will not rotate. I haven't dropped it, nothing has been changed. The roto option is selected, and I did a factory hard reset to no avail. I'm going to bring it back and have it replaced...
I turned SMS off thinking that it would help With my I message that is not working but instead it made it worse and the option to turn it back on went away ! What do I do ? Also I I only have wifi right now because I am out of the country
I have turned off notifications for mail on my iphone. It shows that it is off. Why do I keep getting beeped every time I get and email if this notification is turned off. I have turned the phone off and back on with hopes that this would work to no avail.
Hi, I have nokia 5800 Xpressmusic and I have problem with my wifi. I recently bought it and I cant get wifi networks on the same place that I got 5 networks with my old phone nokia e51. At home I could get 5 networks in my building and now with my nokia 5800 I can't get any of this. It says network not found, my neighbor have a wifi router and with my nokia e51 I had 100% signal now i have (some times) only 20% on the samo place that I had 100%. Can anybody tell me what is the problem???
This problem came 2 days before. when my frdnz phone detected 5 wifi networks and mine 0. i first did Settings reset it dint help then i did Factory reset it dint help. then i updated my neo V to ICS and still it is not working.
I'm trying to get to the bottom of my high Android System usage (currently 60%), and noticed that if I go into settings>wifi, I can see that my phone is searching for wifi networks every 10 seconds (it shows up in the gray bar near the top that says "WI-FI NETWORKS"). If I go to menu>advanced wifi I have everything un-checked, including "allow Wi-Fi scanning." I would think this would prevent the phone's wifi from constantly searching, but apparently not.
How do you see available WiFi networks in the task bar when you pull it down from the top of the screen. As soon as you hit the WiFi button, it turns out the correction..
I have got a new S5 (coming from LG G2) and I'm experiencing a problem I've never seen before.
Earlier changes of phones has given me the opportunity to access wifi networks (SSID) I've used before. Now I have to add (connect and reenter key) all networks all over again.
Is there a fix that can bring back my "old" networks?
I hgave reset network, reset phone, hard soft shut down, plugged it into the router-time capsule, and nothing. It just keeps on spinning around and around. I do not have a VPN network, but I tried that, and still nothing. My office is where I have wifi-plus their are 10 other wifi's in the building it used to pick up, now nothing. Even at home nothing. Just spinning and spinning.It is 2 weeks old. I bought it in Canada, and am now in Africa. I purchased it factory unlocked, and it is running the 5.1.1 software. I don't want to take my phone to the apple resellers, as I bought it at an actual Apple store, and I don't trust the guy here in Tanzania. Is their anything that I have missed that I could possibly do? If you say fixed or static IP, I have no idea how to do that so if you could explain where that said IP is so I could utilize it, and how do I input it to my phone. I'm thinking that is my last hope. Other than that the chip or antenna are fried somehow-even though it is brand new, and has had a case on it the whole time.
I have an iPhone 4 and it has been using from 10MB to 100MB of my data plan while I'm on a WiFi network. This usually happens at night or when my iPhone is on standby and is killing my 200MB plan.I am almost always on a WiFi network and the most data usage seems to be around 12AM - 6AM. I have just picked up on this when I was out of state and needed to have my 3G on to get good reception (data roaming was off). Before then I usually never had my cellular network on and never had much of a problem.Now i have come home to an AT&T M-Cell. I cannot connect to the M-Cell unless I'm on 3G.
I have read many forums that all say that you need to turn off your data while I'm on a WiFi network. However this is just a work around and not a solution to what is actually using so much data. Has anyone found a better solution or has found an app that will keep a log of what is taking up so much of my data plan?
My wifi is on and when it tries to find a wifi connection, the gray little circle just keeps spinning and will not detect our home wifi. I have tried to search for it and connect to it manually, but it will not search for the network name.
