Wifi not turning ON

Whenever I try to turn on Wifi (by either hitting the widget or selecting it under wireless settings), it turns off automatically a few seconds later.  I've had my X for a few weeks and haven't had this issue until yesterday.

This happens to me on my phone IF i have low signal. So are you sure that you have a good signal and it is not low?

I have experiance this a few times any to fix I either toggle air plane mode on and then back off or I would simply restart device and this usually resolves this issue.

OK, I don't know if this will help anybody else but I just pulled out the power cord from my router and put back in and my wifi is now working on phone.

It seems something in your phone settings has become corrupt. I would recommend performing a hard reset to clear this up. The instructions to performing the reset are listed below:

 

 

Performing a factory reset via settings

The most convenient way to do a factory reset is via the phone settings.

Press HOME

> MENU,

then tap Settings.

Scroll down the screen,

and then tap Privacy

> Factory data reset.

On the Factory data reset screen,

tap Reset phone,

and then tap Erase everything.


Once you have done this it should resolve your issue and your wifi should begin to work correctly. Hope this helps.
