Hi Bigbot -
I am using your 15-1 beta deodex and found something weird. Actually it happened on previous rom too, but did not verify it on other rom, only found out this time time around. I'm on the latest BOG5 firmware and the only way to fix this is to reboot the phone.
When I have WIFI ON, internet is fine.
When I turn OFF WIFI and use data, internet is fine too.
Turn ON Mobile Hotspot from data, internet is fine too.
BUT...., If I were on WIFI AND internet is fine, I turn ON Mobile Hotspot. I got a warning saying that "turning on Mobile Hotspot will turn off WIFI". I press OK and check internet, it is fine. And this is where it gets weird, if I turn OFF Mobile Hotspot and turn ON WIFI, my WIFI connects but NO INTERNET. Check my router and router said phone is CONNECTED, but phone has no internet. Ping the phone from the other computer connected to the same router return fine. Phone cannot ping anything on the same router or to the internet. The ONLY WAY to resolve the WIFI internet now is to reboot the phone.
BUT.... if I were going from WIFI to Mobile Hotspot by turning OFF WIFI FIRST, WAIT a few second and then TURN ON Mobile Hotspot. When I go back to WIFI, it is FINE. I CAN connect to internet. It is only when I allow the system to turn OFF WIFI by itself to activate Mobile Hotspot will I loose my WIFI internet when I reconnect back to WIFI.
Do you know what is going on? It seemed like if the system turn OFF WIFI by itself to connect to Mobile Hotspot, it is also doing something more that when you turn ON WIFI it won't connect to the internet.
Hopefully you understand what I'm going through. It's been a few weeks like this that I finally find out the culprit.

Hey guys, newbie user and android owner.
I picked up the vibrant the other day. So far its rooted, android-wifi-tether, and i performed the gps fix on it.
I really like the phone, but whenever I connect to my wifi router, it stops all data (android market, web browser, etc) It says connected and doesn't show any signs of problems. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any help you can throw my way.
Hmm. Mine has problems with "No Connection" when it's connected to my wireless at home, but I just figured it was my router's fault since my computer gives me the "unable to load web page" thing all the time too. My router sucks, though. Maybe your does too?
Yeah, mine does it sometimes too. I just turn on airplane mode, and turn it back off...works fine after that. Its a hit or miss issue.
Mine works fine running off if my router. Btw, do you actually have the wi-fi tether working? Because I thought we needed a working kernal for that to work.
Feeling Vibrant on xda-app
Yup that did it for me. All I had to do was turn on airplane mode and then turn it back off. Wifi working for me now. Thanks.

Please tell us how you got wifi tethering to work without a custom kernel.

you know, i have a similar issue, where im connected to my router but i dont get internet and 3g goes away the moment i connect to wifi... airplane mode didnt help tho... its interesting really..
ive tried other routers and my phone can get wifi w/internet from them
i did factory reset on my phone 3 times trying to figure this out; 2 of the three times i got wifi to work w/internet until i disconnected and connected again. then i just got the same problem all over again
So after sucessfully flashing my HD2 to WP7, and obtaining a 25 digit activation code for Live Services, I go to turn it all on and it refuses to connect with my Wi-fi. All it says is "Your phone couldn't reach the Wi-Fi network wireless". I used to hape WPA, but i took it off so that maybe it would connect. But it didn't work. I even disabled the firewall, and the mac filter list.
My router is a Westel Model 327W (Provided by my ISP).
I currently have this rom installed. This is the second one I've had, the first one was the first one that was ever available, idk what it's called or where I can link to it.
Please help me! I can't get data, so Wi-Fi is my only option for internet! Which is my only option for installing apps! And its not working!
UPDATE:
So i walked down the street and tried to access 3 different Unsecured Wi-Fi access points (all of which I could connect to on my iPod Touch) and for each one it said "Your phone couldn't reach the Wi-Fi network ______". So now I know that the problem isn't in my internet.
Please help! I have no idea what to do!
Please someone help! I can't do a thing with this phone! It is so irritating!

Reflash the rom with maglrd, but have you wifi router switched off. once the rom is loaded, look into the wifi settings and see if you see other wifi pick ups.. Now switch on your wifi router. Do you now see your own wifi address! I had a similar problem, but that fixed for me, but also choose wep instead of wap.
C how you get on.

Suddenly WiFi Hotspot stopped while I was in CM11. I upgraded to CM12 still the same issue. When switch on wifi hotspot nothing happens. Previously it use give a notification saying that Tethering or WiFi hotspot active. But now nothing happens, no notification. Wifi works as usual but not WiFi Hotspot. I badly need a solution. Please anyone help me.

Same issue here. Im using CM12.1, then I installed Orbot and runs as service. Portable hotspot did run OK with VPN running. This morning after I reboot my device, suddenly other device can't connect to hotspot (very long connecting progress). After I remove Orbot, it fixed.
Another solution can be read HERE that may comply to your issue.
I recently put rooted Lollipop PB1 on my SM-G900V (verizon), put AFWall+ on it, and thought all was good. However, when I restart my phone I can use wifi and VPN fine, but mobile hotspot tries and fails, even if I manually disconnect VPN first. I restart again and mobile hotspot works fine, but if I disconnect then VPN using native android interface is always "unsuccessful." I've tried OpenVPN client and PIA client instead of the native one but to no avail (I think the PIA one made it so my wifi couldn't come back on until a restart). Yes, VPN, OpenVPN and PIA are enabled in AFwall+ (wifi, mobile, vpn boxes).
It seems like restart is a toggle to use vpn, restart again to use hotspot, but not both. something wacky seems to be going on with the radios.
I suppose if I had to choose I can just restart and just use mobile hotspot and forgot about vpn, but I am just wondering if there's something obvious I've overlooked since it'd be great to be able to use both.
Thanks for reading.
It seems my network stack is messed up. With AFwall uninstalled, I'm getting DNS errors connected to wifi and/or mobile. I've unfrozen all system apps except Peel Remote, and nothing system-related is Greenified.
Changed DNS server from this tip here and rebooted. Wifi and data work now.
How could DNS have gotten corrupted? Should I just do a factory reset?
Testing to see if this fixed original problem.
Ok, the above DNS change did fix the original problem.
I restored AFwall+ from Titanium backup (app + data).
Ran wifi with VPN. Check.
Turned off VPN and ran hotspot. It tried, tried, and worked third time.
Turned hotspot off, enabled wifi, and ran VPN. "Unsuccessful."
Uninstalled AFwall+.
Wifi on, ran VPN. Fail.
Turned off wifi and ran hotspot with mobile. VPN works.
Turned off hotspot, turned off mobile, turned on wifi. VPN fails.
Restarted.
Wifi on, VPN on. "Unsuccessful" once ....then connected.
Wifi off, data on, hotspot on. Success.
Wifi on, data off, VPN? "Unsuccessful"
Try again manually. Success.
So it seems that I did something in AFwall+ that really messed up my network stack.
Is there an easy reset or fix to get things more stable again?
Since the last official update I'm always having problems when I turn on my wifi hotspot to use my other phone with the Zenfone Zoom Data.
When I turn it on it doesn't work, my connected devices show "no connection" when connected to the wifi hotspot, I manage to get it working always swearing while I reset the wifi and data settings, I turn on and off the data and the wifi hotspot. Sometimes I have to go to the VPN and re-tap on the correct VPN in use (that is already selected) and then the connection will stat working on my connected devices. Often I have to repeat those steps many times.
The other weird thing is that when I'm using the Zoom S as wifi hotspot, the connection on the phone itself stop working. It works only on the connected devices.
Never had those problems with previous android phones I had (several Nexus, a Note 3 and an Ulefone Power). I use the wifi hotspot really often since I still use my Note 3 and this is really frustrating.
EDIT Maybe I posted this in the wrong section. My mistake sorry. If some mod can move this I'll be glad.
try adding ",dun" to the access point types under the APN settings. I had a similar issue that fixed it.
Last week I used my Asus 3 Zoom to give my laptop internet by Wifi hotspot. Worked flawlessly.
