Skype android wont work on wifi??

I am running skype version 4.9.0.45564, samsung galaxy s3 android o.s 4.3
When i connect to skype on my android phone over 3g/4g it works no problem. i sign in and a connection is made and it shows i am avalaible.
when i am on wifi i can not sign in. my status is shown as offline (i cant select the "avaliable" option in my profile). I dont receive messages unless i go into the app. The notification bar on my phone shows "Not connected"
I have tried signing out and signing back in but it wont work. I close out the app and still cant get connected. I have even cleared the cache, uninstalled the app and reinstalled it and I still can not make a connection over wifi. 
Does the skype app not work over wifi? 

SAME HERE!!!! i keep having to Clear Data in the settings to change status from Not Connected to Available and only then it works, but i have to redo it every time i need to call!! I updated to 5.1 but same problem so I downgraded back to 4.9. Im also running on samsung Galaxy S3 android 4.4.2

  • Torch 9800 my email wont work via wifi

    I have just sync my new torch from my old bold. All info transfered perfectly including my 2 email accounts.
    I have the misfortune of living in a 2G only area on remote Island. SMS, phone calls and wifi only. I had my old Bold working through wifi hot spots onto my gmail account and it was sending and receiving emails just fine but the torch just keeps saying 'activation failed. A service connection is unavailable' each time I try to activate the account.
    Seems as though it wont work through wifi, i can surf the net with no problems 
    Any Ideas?

    Turn off the WiFi connection, and go to an area where you have a clear 2G connection (EDGE) and do the following:
    On your BlackBerry device, go to:
    1. Options > Advanced > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register.
    2. Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site:
    From your handheld device:   http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15402
    Go to the Personal Email Set Up icon and log in. Then under Help!, select Service Books, then select Send service Books.
    From your desktop PC:  http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02830
    North American Carriers - scroll down to select your carrier
    WorldWide Carriers - Find your carrier on the list
    3. With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot. This reboot, even if you have already done this, is often needed to install the service books.
    Then, this should install the required Service Books to the Torch, and you should be able to perform all data services over WiFi as you have been in the past.

  • My Instagram wont work without wifi. WHAT DO I DO

    please help

    apps use either phone data or wifi. without either they wont work at all no matter what you do

  • Skype microphone wont work on Ipod touch 4th gen after updating it.

    So i dont usually update apps that often. But i for some reason wanted to update skype. So i updated it and then went to go on skype with my friends. So i went on a voice call and it turned out they couldent hear me, it wasnt on mute, they didnt put me on mute blah blah. I just want it to work again.
    and going to Privacy>microphone>skype
    doesnt work cause the microphone option isnt even there....

    - Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
    - Open the Voice Memos app and see if you see movement on the VU meter needle with changes in noise level trying to be recorded.
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • You tube wont work from wifi but my iphone will on my ipad first generation

    When i try play utube on ipad it fails or may start nd then sticks all other wifi products in house can play the same utube items but ipad struggles or fails with server problems??

    You can find a local shop and pay to get it fixed or you will need to send the phone to someone you know in Canada and have them take the phone into Apple for service. Then they will need to ship the phone back to you. The warranty is based in the original country of purchase.
    Decide which is your best option.

  • Really need help BBM not working on wifi

    ok so I've just updated my torch 9800 software and with it all of the apps, but there's the problem that my BBM wont work on wifi. why is that? I'd tried to resend the service books but there was a message about server conection problems, then I'd even tried by the BBM configuration icon in the setup menu but there was another message (imposible to configurate BBM, a temporary error was notified with the server) so I dont really know what to do... really need help this is my only comunication way with my family on the other side of the world.

    On the handset, go to:
    For OS5 and 4.x
    Options - Advanced Options - Host Routing Table
    and click Register now, and escape back to the home page.
    For OS6 and higher
    in options, device , advanced, host routing table, click on menu and choose register now.
    Wait 2 minutes and see if registration to network happens.

  • I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?

    I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?
    I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4, and my wife has an iphone. We found out that imessage wont come through from her. After we went to the AT&T helpdesk they said that she could turn off imessage on her phone and that I would get texts on my S4. But then so would everyone else who has an iphone. That  won't work for everyone in my company that has an iphone. So what I am wondering is- since I recently got this phone, should I get a new number? Or should I contact ATT or contact Apple to try and get this number de-activated? I'm thinking I'll never get into the icloud account that this number is attached to, but maybe someone has some advice on that?
    I just sincerely want imessage to work on this phone and I'm willing to take the steps to do that.
    Please help

    Either one of the two should work - getting new number from carrier or contacting Apple to revoke phone number from imessage system.
    That is if your problem is described correctly.

    Hi miller5280
    Can you please explain the steps you took to "activate" your phone again?
    I am having this problem:
    1) after upgrade to the new software, phone was stuck in recovery mode (usb-itunes picture). Not jailbroken either.
    2) have done the "reset" i.e. off button & home button together
    2) I reinstalled itunes many times
    3) switch usb port many times
    4) de-auth / re-auth many times as well as purchased / download free apps (however, unable to sync due to itunes not recognizing the phone)
    5) BUT it still won't restore (error codes such as 13, 14 0r 1604)
    Can you or any here help me?? Can't use the phone at all. Very frustrating.....

    I had this same issue. I spent time on live chat with Apple Support last night. I went through all of their trouble shooting. This included: making sure airplane mode is off; resetting the network settings; and finally doing a factory reset (2 times) and restoring my phone. None of these worked. The support tech told me that the "WiFi radio is not functioning" which is a hardware problem. Only thing you can do is have the phone serviced or replaced. Hopefully you are still under warranty so it doesn't cost you anything. But if not, sounds like it will be about $199 to replace, according to other posts.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
