Z10 STL100-3 WiFi issue

Hi,
I have a STL100-3 on Bell Mobility in Canada and am going to be sending the phone out for a warranty repair tomorrow unless anybody can help me out with a WiFi issue I've been having since updating to 10.1 last month.
When I disconnect from a WiFi network and don't immediately connect to another network, then the WiFi on the phone will be completely disabled until I do a restart of the phone. The WiFi will still show as being on but a network scan will show that there are no WiFi networks in range. I know this is wrong since my other devices can connect to my network and there are several other networks in range. 
I have already done a security wipe and reloaded the OS through my computer and the problem persists. From what I can tell from searching online, I seem to be the only one that has been having this issue. 
I called my carrier for tech support and they are saying that my phone will need to be sent out for warranty repair, but I 'd like to avoid that if possible. Has anybody else experienced this issue and if so, what have you done to resolve it?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall chargerLeave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display doesRemove the batteryWait 15 minutesInsert the batteryWait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display doesThis has been known to "kick start" some BBs. If it fails, please try again but increase the wait time in step 4 to 2 hours, and perhaps as long as 4-5 hours.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happensObtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happensThe results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
Good luck and let us know!

  • HUB showing contact number with country code and not with its name..blackberry Z10 STL100-2

    I have an issue with Text Messages and call lists, in my blackberry Z10 (STL100-2), which is, If I have not saved my contact numbers without country code, the msg may appear in local formate (w/o country code), and it also appear as International formate (another times), and though the number is same (only saperate is country code) in the hub, it appear as two conversation. for eg: if I sent txt to 9899100 (w/o country code), reply used to come as +960-9899100. or vice-versa.
    So its very difficult. and here i came for help.
    You might know a lot what we do not know as we do know a lot you do not know. Asking is the way to get to know....

    The movies were all on my SD card. They are also not backed up by Link which is why had them synced to my phone as a poor man's backup.
    So either Link did not backup the necessary licensing information in the main memory of my phone, or Link did not synchronize the necessary licensing information off my SD card. Either way I am stuck with 3 movies that I cannot play, because I can no longer find them in the BlackBerry World store to re-dowbload whatever licensing information is needed.
    I even just tried a media restore from Link because it was 138 MB in size (and in don't normally store anything on my phone's main storage), but alas no licensing information was restored.

  • Solution for z10 stl100-1 users

    All z10 stl100 1 users who are facing following problems as listed 
    1.  mobile goes off at any battery percentage e.g. 48 % or 88 %
    2.  mobile showing 0% battery with blinking of red light and mobile working normally 
    3. battery indicator giving different percentages for different battery level
    4. battery capacitor problem
    these are the posts made by different people on this forum actually pointing toward a same issue 
    to solve this when you think your mobile battery indicator giving wrong percentage simply switch off your moible phone and pull the battery out for more than 1 hour then re insert the battery .... there will be no more indicator issues and your mobile will give correct battery indicator %.

    Hey Man.
    Sorry, it took a while to drain the battery.
    What I did, is use the battery until the device died (68%). Removed the battery for an hour. Performed a Capacitor Discharge on the device and then reinserted the battery and plugged the charger in.
    I then charged it to full and used it normally. I stopped draining it when it got to 10%. 
    Attached are the screenshots from Battery Guru.

  • I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    I'm using a mid 2014 13" rmbp. I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    It's something to do with the main user account (not iTunes account) on my Mac because I logged in with another account and it downloaded fine, I installed it on the HDD and even though the date in App Store was 16th October 2014, it is the full installer of 10.10.2.
    To try to resolve this problem, I have copied the installer app elsewhere and deleted it but App Store still will not allow me to download it with my main user account yet just allowed me to update iTunes.
    I had a brainwave last night that it might have been related to me changing the default downloads folder to one not on my boot drive (to save disk space on my main boot drive) but having changed it back, tried again, rebooted and tried yet again, deleted my App Store preferences. nothing has worked.

  • WiFi issues with iPhone 4S & ios 6 update

    Okay here is my issue...
    I've been reading alot of issues that people have with connecting to WiFi with their new iPhone 5, iPhone 4S or other devices but I have no trouble connecting to WiFi at all. My problem is that WiFi wont 'work'. The WiFi I'm hooked up to at home doesn't let me do basically anything that requires internet.
    I can get on the Facebook app fine and my newsfeed loads but I can't see Facebook notifications, upload photos or videos, read inboxes, look at photos, its very slow etc.
    I can't get into the App Store or iTunes at all. It says it 'Cannot Connect to iTunes Store' when I try.
    I can't upload photos onto Instagram
    Currently I'm into the Simpsons Tapped Out game and I can't go onto it at all.
    And there are a few other minor issues I am having.
    All these things I can do with my Telstra 3G network however and it ***** because I want to use and do all these things but I have to use my 3G and I've just recently gone over my data monthly usage and been charged extra which I'm not happy about.
    So is anyone else having these issues or is it just me and I'm stuffed? I'd REALLY love some help.
    I've been lost with what to do because as some are having WiFi issues as well, mine isnt the same and it's hard to find answers or just other discussions.
    Please Help!
    Thankyou.   

    I am having the same issue since updating to iOS 6.  It has been noticeable on my iPhone 4S and a little less noticeable on my iPad 3 but I think it is happening on the iPad too.  Very annoying problem.  One way to get it to work better is to re-boot your phone.  It will work for awhile then and then eventually not be working anymore and you will need to re-boot again.
    Just to be clear with everyone - the iPhone looks like it is connected to the wireless, it gets an IP address but can't transmit any data.  Device:  iPhone 4S, OS:  iOS6

  • Wifi issues with iphone not responding

    Phone: iPhone 4s.
    This issue started approximately two weeks ago. My phone initially started with the Wifi connection greyed out, I followed the appropriate steps to resolve this issue, and was successful. Now I can turn the wifi connection on without problems, but my iPhone will freeze (delay), then return me to my homescreen. Occasionally I do automatically connect to my known wifi, but then will disconnect and return to 3G. If I make an attempt to go to settings to manually reconnect, the phone again freezes. The phone seems to freeze after I click settings, then when pressing Wi-Fi, the bar turns dark bold, but freezes and doesn't open. I then have to click my home button, return to the main menu. Also if I open an app during the seldom opportunity my phone is connected to wifi, the phone will disconnect, return to 3G and freeze. I have rebooted my routers, forgot networks, reset network settings. I have thought about resetting the entire phone, but my phone will not stay connected to wifi long enough for me to back up my data to iCloud. I am thinking of stopping into my local verizon store, but I think they will redirect me to an apple store; which is 35 miles away. Of course the problem with me not connecting to Wi-Fi is my increased use of data. Now I am over 75% for my monthly usage with 2 weeks remaining, and do not see justification in possibly having to pay the overage fee. Many times when my phone freezes due to these wifi issues, or will not respond, I have to do the manual power/home reset. In conclusion, I need to figure out how to maintain my connection to Wi-fi, and stop my phone from not responding when I open my wifi settings. Thanks in advance!

    My Iphone 4S is doing the same thing..  All of a sudden the WIFI button is gray and not working.  I chatted online with a Rep.  He had me call *228 and hit option 1, then call again and hit option 2.  All of a sudden the WIFI button was black.  But it could not find any network.  I shut it off and restarted it and now button gray again.  I called that number again and still gray.  I read somewhere else that a lot of people have a problem with the WIFI button.  They say it basically just stops working.  This was a replacement phone because the volume stopped working on my original phone.  I assume they gave me a refurbished one because it didn't seem new.   I'm due an upgrade in 3 months.   I'm disabled and just hate driving to the store again.  I wish there was an easier way. 

  • WiFi issues with Curve 8530

    Hi,
    I am having major WiFi issues with my Curve 8530. Everytime I connect to my wireless router, it takes a long time to connect to BIS, and then if I try to use basically any data at all, my router drops my Curve 8530. Sometimes it stays connected, but I cannot use App World at all, and email, and web browsing is all over the place in terms of speed, sometimes it is fast, while sometimes it is slow, and most of the time it stalls while loading a page. How do I configure my router for use with BIS and have it not drop my Curve 8530 everytime I use data over WiFi? BIS works perfectly over my cellular carriers network, so BIS is activated on my device. I have tried giving my BB a static IP, but that did not solve anything. My router is a Netgear WNR2000. Also, I have the latest device software installed on my BB, and all of my apps are up-to-date.

    Hi,
    Have you had any luck and resolving your problem?
    We have a similar problem but it's with iOS devices where only one can connect at a time. We have about 10 that need to connect. All other laptops and tablets connect fine.
    Power cycling the AX411 fixes it temporarly.

  • WiFi issue after 6.1.2 upgrade

    I upgraded my OS to 6.1.2 and now I'm having troubles connecting to the internet at work.  I did reset my network settings and inputted the appropriate password and still having issues.  It identifies the network but when open safari or an app requiring internet connection it goes nowhere.  Is anyone else having this issue.  Does anyone know how to fix this problem.  Keep in mind my connection works fine at home.

  • U410 touch WiFi issues after upgrading to windows 8.1

    Hi all,
    I have a U410 touch and yesterday I upgraded to windows 8.1
    I have major WiFi issues.
    connection drops after a few minutes giving limited. troblesshooting resets the adapter saying ''the default gateway is not accessible '' is fixed. But after a few minutes the problem comes back. and it goes like this forever.
    I have the Intel Centrino N-2230 and I installed the driver I found here (15.10.3.2).
    I''ve tried to uncheck the power management option but the problem is still there.
    I also have other issues with the dolby system (I see others have the same problem )and my touch screen is not working.
    any help will be greatly appreciated
    thanks!

    Hi-
    I am also running into the same issue with my Lenovo U410 and it is really frustrating. I also have Centrino Wireless chip with driver version 15.10.3.2 and I have windows 8.1
    I bought the laptop from Costco and was having similar issues. I sent it back to Costco Concierge who apparently replaced the wireless chipset on this laptop but now I am getting this issue.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Yoga 11S WiFi issues

    Hi all,
    As with many I am experiencing severe Wifi issues with new Yoga 11s. I will try to explain in detail in the hope that someone who better understands how wifi really works might be able to help diagnose.
    I have a Talktalk badged Huawei HG533 router. This delivers c.15Mbs reliably all around my house (2xTVs, computers up and downstairs, 2xphones). Using Speedtest.net to capture speeds.
    With the Yoga, if I sit right next to the router (as I am now), I get 15Mbs. In other parts of the house I get just 0.5Mb, including rooms where other devices are measured at 15. I have updated drivers and upgraded to W8.1 though I experienced exactly the same problem before the upgrade.
    I have tested every room and it seems that it will either work at very close to the maximum (in a few rooms) or drops off catastrophically to 0.5mb or less. There is no in between. I never lose connection altogether. There seems no correalation between the level of signal displayed (4 or 5 bars) and the speed.The 'good' rooms are separated by fewer walls.
    I have also observed that on occasion having tested in a good room and then moving to one of the bad rooms it initially shows good performance, before seemingly recognising where it is and throttling back to unusable.
    It is as though once it gets to a certain distance/separation/signal strength it somehow 'jams' the signal.
    I really neeed to find a solution to this as 1. my office is one of the bad rooms and 2. I am often in hotels, airports etc and need reliable internet even in poor signal areas. Any help much appreciated.

    Hey everyone, I just registered here and I couldn't find a solution. Apologies if this has been covered already.
    I received the Yoga 11s i5 as part of an internship and after keeping the package under wraps for a month or two, I decided to give it a go and start using it instead of my Microsoft Surface. Everything works smooth and I love it to bits - except for the WiFi.
    I was able to connect a few times, but for the most part it just doesn't work. The WiFi icon in the bottom right corner displays the adapter icon with a little red x, and the Windows troubleshooter is unable to find a solution. I'm really not sure what the problem is because, so far, my connectivity problem is entirely random - several times, I was able to connect and use the WiFi regularly only to be greeted with the same problem next time I  start using the computer. The troubleshooter once displayed an error message amongst the lines of "The network adapter is experiencing hardware/software difficulties".
    I don't know if it is worth mentioning that I live on a college campus with a dodgy wifi connection, but every other device I ever used is working properly. Any suggestions? Only thing I did try so far is refreshing the system and reinstalling Windows but, to no avail.
    Thanks in advance!
