Switching off wif on Nokia E63?

I have been trying to switch of the wifi for a while now but won't work I have went on
MENU>TOOLS>SETTINGS>CONNECTION>WIRELESS LAN>SHOW WLAN AVAILABIITY to never.
I have tried many other ways to switch it off like disconnecting it, switiching my phone off and back on and turning my internet conncection off from the routet. I als came across on an article that E63 's wifi will never turn off and this is happing to me. Its really frustrating as I was able to go on three network to "My3 planet" to check my top up allowance I have used but now I can't do even do that.
I have downloaded whats app but I always exit from that app. I really need to check my top up when ever I go to click planet 3 it connects via my wifi then comes up saying switch off your wifi on your phone's setting which I have tried but no luck! Plz help
Thanks

Such issues usually seems to be hardware failure, fw failure. Similar behavior can however be caused by a faulty simcard or memory card. - At least the turning off-part.
Since you've tried bot hard reset and soft reset it probably has to go back to Nokia.
I was thinking about reinstalling the fw, but Nokia has probably done that when it was "repaired".
After resetting it and getting it back, did you install any backups on it? I was thinking about making another hard reset, format the mass memory and let it run a while before installing anything on it. If it works now, it would probably be something that you've previously backed up. - It could be a corrupt mass memory too if you haven't formatted it before.
Beware that a format of mass memory will delete anything that's on it. Make a back up!
Do you happen to have a memory card installed in the phone? It could also be an issue with that.
You should try adding one by one thing to it to be able to eliminate all possibilities and finally get the "bad guy".
I would try leaving the memory card out (if you have one, and see how it goes. If it's still the same, format the mass memory. Still the same: Change your sim card or try another simcard for a few days if you have one spare or anyone you know can let you borrow one.
If it still turns off and on even in areas with good reception, I would send it back with a note describing what you have already done to try solving the issue.
They should now be able to do a much better job.
Pitty they didn't fixed it in the first place, but it could be something you add to it that the Nokia care point didn't have in hand...

How do you switch off WiFi - is there an easy way?

Hi I am coming from SPV MS Smartphones. My mate has got a new one with WiFi in, and it has a lovely shortcut menu to switch in ll WiFi, BT etc.
How do you switch off the WiFi on the N80, I read in the manual that "WiFi is always on" surely this cannot be true, Nokia cannot be that daft as this would kill the battery!!
Am I right in saying that the 4 little squares shows that WiFi is on?
cheers
My N80 is on Orange purchased in June 2006 firmware v 3.0617.06 03-05-2006
Cheers

hi there...
yes u can turn off wifi , menu-tools-settings-connection-wireless lan , from there u can choose whether u want ur wlan to be active or inactive , active gives u options of searching for available networks for ur set time , from every min to every 10 mins ,just choose never in show availability option , tht basically stops wlan to search for available networks automatically . incase if u want to search for available networks , u can do tht easily by going to menu-connectivity-connection manager -available wlan ..
hope this answered ur question ,
thnx..

Switching off connections fast (Wifi, 3G, BT, GPS)

Does anybody know of an easy (FAST) way to switch off and on your Wifi, 3G, Bluetooth, GPS connections on the iPhone? I HATE going through all the screens. On top of that they are not all in the same place. Is there an App or something? I cannot seem to find anyhing. or is this improved in iOS5?
Thanks.

I wasn't really trying to switch them all off at once. But sometimes I want to switch off wifi or 3G, depending on the network strength I have. Also for powersave reasons I often switch some of these on or off. And they are just not well placed. For example on the Samsung Galaxy range (android), they are very conveniently put together in one easy accessable area (except for 3G, which is annoying as well). But then again, I love my iPhone and don't want an android ;-)

My battery on my ipod touch keeps draining. i have updated in itunes and turned off wifi....can anyone help??

My battery life on my ipod touch used to last for days if i wasnt using it. I have updated from itunes recently and my battery is draining in hours. i have switched off wifi and this has not helped. i also turned off notifications as well. can anyone help

Did you already reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
Also try to delete the mail account in case you're using push/fetch to get your mail. There have been cases in which mail didn't stop connecting to the server, causing the battery drain.

There are a few different way. Don't forget to backup your data first.
First is FOTA (firmware over the air). Type the code *#0000# then goto Options>Check for updates. You will will need to go online for this so unless you have a data package ensure you are within range of your wifi.
The other option is to use Ovi Suite or NSU.

WiFi issue: Is it possible to change WiFi settings in a way that it does not switch off in the screen-lock mode?

I have iPhone 4 and 4s. WiFi is automatically switching off on both phones when they are inactive (screens are locked). It is connecting back after some seconds I unlocke the phone. But because I have no subscribtion for the Cellular data usage, I am being cuted from Internet all screen-locked period. All that time people are not able to reach me by email, skype, or other programs using Internet. It is quite uncomfortable, especially when waiting for something important! Is there a way to change this setting?

The iPhone does not shut down WiFi completely when asleep. It does use a power conservation mode. You should still receive notifications. There is no setting for this. It should work for you as it does for me if you don't have a network problem.
There are lots of problems reported with D-Link routers and they don't have a great reputation. If there is no help available from D-Link you may want to consider installing the DD-WRT firmware. It's available for the D-Link 615. See here for information: http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index
By the way, you do have Notifications enabled for the Apps you are talking about right? See Settings -> Notifications and Mail, etc.

Hello I have upgraded my iPad again. It seems that something gets upset each time. This time my mailbox has become unstable. It does not receive or send mail. I know my wifi is fine because my laptop is fine. I have switched off the iPad again and again.

Not sure you got my earlier message so I am posing my question again.
Having upgraded my iPad to the more recent OSsomething, my mailbox no longer receives or sends emails.
My wifi is fine, checked with my laptop which works fine. I have switched off the iPad many times but the problem remains. Can anyone help?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
That's not the same as turning it off or on.
Another things to try is to reset your settings. Use the Settings app for this.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
You will not lose data but you will have to enter all passwords again.
If the problem persists after the reset check your email accounts on the iPad. You could delete them and add them back. This is also done in the Settings app.
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar

Nokia Messaging causes N97 to reboot/switch off?

Hi Guys,
I've noticed there are some people who are running 12.0.24 firmware here who claim that their Nokia N97 'is working fine with no issues at all'.
My question to you is are any of you people who have no reboot/turning off problems running Nokia Messaging (latest version)? Why I ask is I am sure that it may have something to do with Nokia Messaging but I have to rule out what others are running.
Are you guys all using the built-in e mail client? I have switched across to that now, my reboots have not happened since but GOD the built-in client is an awful experience having been a long time user of Nokia Messaging, particularly that I now no longer can read HTML.
Help!

The Nokia Messaging is purely for email so if your not fussed with Email then no need to use it. Essentially your email looks identical to how it would look using a PC. So all HTML emails with pictures, fancy images, complex layout etc, comes out exactly on your phone as it would on a PC.
The built in client feels prehistoric actually compared to that but funny thing is Im nearly 24 hours now with no reboot since I removed the messaging client....

HT2471 Wifi trouble- keeps switching off automatically.. Help

Hi
Currently using an imac late 2009 with updated OX lion 10.7.4- Having trouble with the wifi, it switches off automatically every 5 to 10 mins but doesn't prompt me for a password when I switch back on. Appreciate any help out there. thank you!

Hey G,
This is a common problem with wifi. The obvious answer is that your channel you have setup your WLAN on is experiencing noise from the surrounding devices (including other dodgy routers) and interferring with the signal.
Try changing your channel number on your router to another channel, usually automatically set to 11. I had no end of problems exactly like this but as soon as I changed channels, not a single drop even after three months.

TS4036 my ipad wifi cellular 16 GB 4G switched off inbetween and is not switching on at all. I have tried to restart by using sleep/wake button, but red slider does not appear. I have recharged battery, still no response. what should i do?

My iPad Wi-Fi cellular 16 GB 4G switched off suddenly, even when the battery was 40% available. It is not switching on again, i have tried restarting by using sleep/wake button, but red slider does not appear. I kept it off like it was overnight, in the morning agin recharged it, but still it is not switching on. it is not responding, except when i connect the charger, it gives a blink noise that recharge has started. I removed the SIM and tried restart it but no response, What should i do to restart it please?

Seems to be working again, I haven't done anything though. And the "wifi" led on my laptop is off, which should mean that the interface is down.
This is driving me crazy I don't understand how the all thing works, if anyone has any tips that would be very nice.
Thanks!

IPad Air 32GB Wifi model, won't turn on, recover, restore, with error 4005 after trying to use facetime, switched off. :( HELP!

bought my mom a new iPad Air 32GB WiFi model via eBay and got it yesterday. It worked all fine and I even updated it to the latest iOS version. It worked all fine for the next few hours until I tried to have a facetime call using my iPad Air. Somehow within few seconds after the call being initialized, my moms iPad got switched off. I tried almost all the solutions I found via Apple community, google and other sites. None of them worked. ( Restore, Recovery, DFU Mode, Pressing Home and ON/OFF switch etc ) Somehow I managed to connect the iPad to itunes and when i press the restore button, I get error 4005 after 5 - 10 mins appearing 'waiting for iPad' message. I am in Sri Lanka and I have no Apple Stores here, or authorized service providers. since this isn't a fault of the ebay seller, cannot return it too. Please help me!

Hi Tom,
Thank you very much for your time and trying to help me on this issue. I really appreciate it.
I went through those steps more than few time since yesterday ( saw you had posted this solution on a similar issue by another user )
still no luck. Now I cannot exit from DFU mode, or either restore it due to 4005 error. ( since its a new iPad, i only had few apps installed. so not going to loose much data as well ). I also try to exit DFU mode by using few third party apps such as Wondershare Dr.Fone, Phone Rescue, ReiBoot, RecBoot. Only wondershare Dr.Fone app showed me a screen with a message saying the iOS device is 'not in normale mode, press home + off/on button to switch to normal mode, which never worked either.
Really appreciate your help but I am open for more solutions other than Restore, Recovery Mode, DFU mode or any method to overcome error 4005. I would also like to know are there any softwares to diagnose the iPad Air to detect whats wrong with it. so that I can be sure if it is a hardware failure or firmware issue.
Thanks in advance,
Nimasha
