[Sony Doesn't care this at all] WiFi Status locked, cannot change or turn off

It looks like this is a general problem after ICS upgrade for Sony Xperia phone.I didn't have this problem before even in worse firmware 6.1.1.B.1.10, but after using 6.1.1.B.1.54 two weeks, I have the problem now... I can connect to AP after boot.After use for a little time, the process "wpa_supplicant" start running, and never stop, just like the screenshot below (right-top corner). When the process "wpa_supplicant" is running, I can neither turn off the WiFi, nor make any setting change about WiFi.What I can do is reboot.It looks that the WiFi status was been locked by this process. According the information on the web (reference), this issue can be fixed after delete the file /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant_bagscan.db. (rooted required)But this file will automatic generated by wpa_supplicant, so the same problem may happens again. Is there any way to fix this issue without rooted?

Please pay attention to these problems:http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/55321http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/350786#350786http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/350738#350738http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/223550#223550(there may be more posts)They all refer to the same issue!! Still with NO solution. And is being given little attention by SONY!<<< Wi-fi won't turn off and stops working even though it's "on" >>>

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Exporting via Compressor may be recommended but it is slow and doesn't fully support all available filters, etc.
    Try exporting the timeline as a QT Movie (the "normal" export) using Current Settings and them submit the resultant clip to Compression. Works for me...

  • Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
    The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
    The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
    I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
    There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
    I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
    I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
    Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
    After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
    Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
    Hope this solution will help you too,
    Enjoy!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

    Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's  / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

    Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
    However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
    Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
    And the download an APP called caffiene...
    When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
    Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep

  • HT204409 I keep seeing "change my router" as a solution to wifi problems, I cannot change hotel routers! ***, please Apple, I have been a big fan but this is crazy, only my Apple products are not working on wifi!

    This wifi issue is bad, all other products I have work fine, but my iPad (fully update, re-installed, re-booted, etc...) will not work. Time to return it and switch to another vendor? Many of the solutions I see are change your router. I cannot change a Hotel router, a companies router! Please Apple fix this ASAP prem price and not working!

    the iPad should work with most wifi routers.  There are some old wife routers it may not.  Your ipad coiuld have a hardware problem.
    Does it work with some routers?  Have you hung out in the lobby of the hotel and asked if other ipad users are having a problem.  What does the hotel staff say? 
    You could carry a mini wifi router with you and connect the mini via ethernet cable.
    Find the make and model of the wifi router.  We can check if other ipad owners are having problem.
    a 4g solution.
    I recently signed up for FreedomPop.com. http://www.freedompop.com
    FreedomPop provides 500meg of free 4g cellular data per month!  You do need to buy their wireless device at $39.  Your machine needs wifi capability. There are ways of getting bonus megs.  One gig of addition data costs $10 per month.  I used about 15megs per hour of lite internet surfing.
    When signing up, you need to be careful with your selections.  On some screens, the free option is a small link below the large button.  FreedomPop employs a Pavlovian Dog < Operant conditioning > thing of getting you used to clicking on the large button then they change the large button to a paid add-on.
    Once you setup your account, you need to go to your account options screen to turn off automatic paid data download once you exceed your quota.
    The performance seems a little slower than my DSL connection.

  • IPhone 5C thinks it is still on Wifi at home even when modem turned off?

    Hi all;
    I have a strange one here.  My wife and both recently obtained iPhone 5Cs.  Generally we have had a good experience in using them but have noticed a little "quirk" at home.  We are away from home all day at work, and as a matter of habit we always turn our modem off as we are going out the door.  We figure it's just a good security practice to have, on top of already having a password for our home network.  Anyway, my wife found herself at work the other day without her phone.  She figured she laid it down on the kitchen table to attend to something else on the way out and forgot to pick it back up.  She attempted to verify this by using the icloud "find my phone" feature and got a message that her phone was offline.  I find this odd, as I thought the phone would automatically go to the LTE network when no wifi is available.  It in fact does so everywhere else we are; at home is the only place we experience this.  I have found this is the case with my phone as well.  I have turned off the modem and found in the phone settings that it is showing it is still connected to our home network.  However when I try to check e-mail, open Safari, etc -- I get message that my network is not available.  I don't know if this is relevant, but our ISP is Comcast, and we have an old Motorola modem that they say is near obsolete but seems to still be working fine.  I guess the good news is we have no problems with our home wife the way a lot of other posters do, but this is a curious situation that is kind of bothering me.
    Any and all ideas or suggestions welcome.

    You are a mite confused.
    The iPhone unless the cellular data is fully off will revert to cellular even if on WiFi if the WiFi connection is not on.
    You have a modem from Comcast, however do you have a wireless router? You see a modem that connects to the internet when turned off does not affect the broadcast connections to your phones if WiFi is on.
    So the WiFi finds your devices however it has no access to internet services. If your wife and you have cellular turned off and you turn off the Comcast modem you have no cellular or broadband connection to anything.
    In this case the Find my iPhone will show the device as off. Because there is no signal either on WiFi /modem and cellular.
    Hope that helped?

  • My iPhone 4 will not let me play my music I bought on iTunes or pandora or YouTube with out my headphones or speakers plugged in. I can play my ringtone without them plugged in but that's all. Also my iPhone will not turn off. Please help

  • HT4623 My Apple 4s phone is frozen up and I can't do anything on it.  I was updating my IOS to IOS7 as prompted to on the screen when I reached the part where it asked for an backup E-mail address.  I supplied this and it froze up and won't even turn off

    I received a prompt on the screen of my Iphone 4S to update my IOS to IOS7.  I clicked on "Start" and went thru and supplied all the requested info.  It asked me for an alternate back-up  E-mail address, I entered this on the screen and when I clicked on "Next" it would go no further on this setup. Now I can't do anything because it's like it totally froze up.  I can't even turn my phone off nor go forward or anything.  What can I do to turn my phone off and totally stop this update???

    Hi Genoc728,

  • Does iPad automatically switch from 3g to Wifi or do I have to turn off 3G when I come back to home wifi?

    Will iPad2 auto switch from 3G to Wifi when I come home or will it stay on 3G until 3G is turned off?  Doesn't iPhone do it automatically?

    If there is a useable wifi network (e.g. if it's a password protected network then the iPad knows the password) then that will be used in preference to 3G - you should be able to tell by the symbol top left of the screen as to whether it's on wifi or 3G.

  • HT1438 All of a sudden, my IPhone (3G) "turned off" and I can't get it to power back up.  I'm, therefore, reluctant to take the SIM card out to even check the serial number to contact tech support.  Any ideas?  Is there a reset button to try?

    All of a sudden my IPhone (3G, I think) "turned off" and won't power back up.  I know it's not the battery, but I have it plugged in anyway.  Any suggestions?

    Hold down the power and home buttons at the same time for 15-20 seconds. You should see the Apple logo and it should re-boot.
