As far as BBM… how are you trying to download it? I also like helping other people so I made a website to put my skills to work. I do not get paid to assist people with their phone issues. I do it because I like helping others, and I do it for free. I might put a donate button on the site someday but helping others is its own reward. If you still have issues navigating or finding things on your phone then contact your Wireless Service Provider and ask if they have a close location to your home that you can go into and get help in person. Thanks so much, I have been able to install all my apps, and I have also installed the BBM on my phone its really cool and my phone work perfectly fine.

I am glad to hear that everything on your phone is working properly and is back to the way you want. Thanks for coming back to the site and letting me know. I Need Your Help. Can You Help Me? Pls, If U Wanna you can email me. But setting up a static IP address as shown above can help to fix this problem. Were you able to setup the static IP address on your phone and wireless network?

Save button is not active, it's gray. BTW it's the same way as in your screenshot. How did you manage to save the static settings? What can I do? Thanks for your help! To edit the values when configuring a Static IP Address just click on the field that you need to change, type in the desired information, and then the phone will allow you to save the data you entered.

Thanks for the quick reply. Found the answer in the meantime. It sounds trivial, but during my research I learned that many users experienced the same problem. With most smartphones your described way works, however with some there is the problem that edits can't be saved as save button is grayed out. The solution is simple: After entering the password everything can be saved: I'm having problem with wifi after update to jellybean 4. Interesting issue, updates are supposed to make the phone run better not cause problems.

I have actually heard of this type of thing happening before. It is pretty uncommon but can happen. I do however recommend that you check out your network settings. I know, I know, your network was working fine before you updated your phone and logically the cause should reside on your Sony Xperia TX but I have seen a few cases where changing the settings on your wireless network will allow your phone to connect properly once again.

Check out this Advanced Wireless Network Troubleshooting Guide for some suggestions on what settings to check and possibly adjust to get your cell phone to connect to your Wi-Fi. I think that checking and adjusting the configuration of your wireless network using the suggestions in that article will help you with your particular situation. I know that your Wi-Fi started having problems after you updated your phone to use the newer Jelly Bean 4. I am not sure if this is by design but it can sometimes be a hassle to get the Wi-Fi on the phone working again after upgrading to a more recent version of Android.

He is probably able to connect to other wireless networks with little trouble as well depending on their encryption types, but his home Wi-Fi seems to be giving him trouble and will likely need to be reconfigured for his phone to connect to it and work properly again. If by some incredibly unlucky circumstances your phone still refuses to connect to ANY wireless network then you might need to start considering your repair or replacement options. Replacing the phone might even be a temporary solution but chances are you would run into the same problem s later on down the road as you would need to get to the root cause which in this case sounds like an issue with the network itself.

I hope this helps guys, as you already know, network issues can be an extremely challenging thing to try and fix as there can be so many reasons as to why it would stop working. You just got to try and discover what that reason is and then apply the solution. Interestingly, you are not the first person to ask me about the BBM app for their Android device. First things first… let me ask you some questions that might help pinpoint the reason this problem is occurring.

Let me know Ernest, and thank you for bringing this issue up. Hope to hear from you soon. I have a brand new note 3.

Sometimes Smartphones Require Smart Solutions

Your blog was very helpful in fixing this issue. Many thanks. How to set up static IP in galaxy y gt-s? I got obtaining IP adress problem and I just can use internet for google only: Pls i upgraded my samsung s2 to 4. I want to use my data plan for it not wifi. I'm able to use data plan to download from play store but it won't just set up. This seems to be a common requirement for over the air software updates too.

I am not sure why BBM would need a Wi-Fi data connection to actually setup, especially if you were already able to download it to your phone from the Play Store but if it says that it needs it then it might actually NEED it. If necessary you should be able to use a public Wi-Fi or a friend or family members Wi-Fi for the initial set up; Inconvenient but possible. BBM BlackBerry Messenger is a popular messaging application but I myself have never had the need to download it or use it and as such I do not have too much hands-on experience with it and the features that it has to offer for its users.

How to fix it? Hello sir, my device is Android 4. Can you tell me any other way And at what range i should choose the ip address Thanks. I use a free public wifi most of the time but it kicks my ass when it kicks me out of connection and when I try to reconnect it will obtain IP address forever, which stops me from using the hotspot for the day at least.

I would like to know what could be the cause of that? It worked like a charm. Thank You so much. I have just bought the new Moto G 3rd Gen , and for the first few days it worked well but Wi-Fi problem started a few days back but it worked again after a day.

Your solution depends on having successfully connected to the wifi. I do not get connected. So advanced setup do not show. I was facing this problem on my tab s2 thanks to your suggestion its solved… thank you very very much. Oh thanks dude i was really annoyed by this and even i called Airtel customer care and other service providers. Finally it has been solved now. My son received an android tablet for Christmas. It is nothing fancy like a Samsung or anything like that. It is called Epik and it is meant mostly for kids although I do enjoy some games on it occasionally.

I bought it on Walmart. However, I do expect it to friggin work! When I set it up, it was working great. Since then, it has been working just fine. I have a fairly new wireless router Netgear and have updated all my firmware and so on and so on.

So this morning, as I am enjoying my quiet time, I get on the tablet and start playing my games. The wifi is fine. I troubleshoot like my life depends on it. I have a 5. Wifi stays on. This is what it would do: It shows up on the available wifi list. I click on it to connect. I enter the password. It does its thing then shows connected for about 3 seconds then drops again. If I was to live or die because of this thing, I would not be here writing this! Every single device in this household can connect. We have 3 laptops, two other tablets, an ipod, 4 phones, and a bluetooth device that connects with no problem at all.

We have been connecting for over two years! We have visitors that come over and connect with no problems. This tablet was fine up until today so I do not know what the heck is going on. It also says on the information page that there is no IP address available. I tried connecting to the appropriate IP to no avail. I then tried the switch to static trick, still nothing.

jelly bean - Add static IP settings to custom rom - Android Enthusiasts Stack Exchange

Please tell me what to do. Thank you!! Maybe your router is set to let limited device connect to it. Browse through its setting and see if you can do anything. If that;s not the issue then you can try resetting your device. The android version is 5. Can you please help me? My phone is Oppo Neo 5. I just bought it a few days ago.

I can connect to my internet at home, but not to the internet at work. Go to Settings and select Wireless and Networks. Turn on Wi-Fi and enter Wi-Fi settings. To enter wifi settings press down and hold the network you want to use to connect to the internet that is trying to obtain an IP address and it will take you to the settings menu.

Android Support

Press Menu and select Advance. Check Use Static IP and assign the values according to the screenshot. If you shut off or reboot your phone it may reset to original default and you will have to reenter the information. Thank You a Lot…you cured my frustration!! I'm using the devices for a signage system and it's okay that they won't connect to public hotspots then. Would be great though if it's still possible to deactivate the static ip settings at some place Save the following in one of the init scripts in the ROM ifconfig eth0 You can also adjsut your security and Proxy settings.
