    samsung gs2 wifi problem

    got no wifi on my phone as it just locked up and after restarting it the wifi symble has gone from the top of the scree and now just get 2 arrows instead.

    it sees my wifi disc and says saved and secured but just does nothing when trying to get it to connect.

    i reset the router and hard reset the phone and it still dont work.

    any ideas?

    Remove and re-add the wifi network?

    Had something similar with GPS on my GS2 a while ago. Turn off / on didnt work, but strangely taking the battery out did.

    Re: samsung gs2 wifi problem

    Have you rooted the phone? If not you should contact Samsung directly about a fix or repairs. Chances are your warranty has expired (mine has on my S2) but you should check to see if it is valid.

    If you have rooted the phone, what ROM is it running?
