WiFi and Bluetooth not turning on. What gives?

Well here is the gist, I haven't been able to turn on either the WiFi or the Bluetooth function on my G2. When I do try to turn them on, the icon shows its in the process of being turned on, but that's it. It returns to the off position in a minute.

This has been going on for about a week now, during which I've tried repeatedly to fix the problem (assuming it was a software issue) through LG PC Suite (by using the restore upgrade error option) and recently just doing a factory reset, but neither of the two worked.

My last option would be to send it to the repair shop (still under warranty, but it'll be time consuming, up to a month)

So I really hope someone can help me out here on a possible fix.

FYI: I've dropped the phone numerous times, no scratches whatsoever, and the screen is perfect. But could the drops have damaged just the WiFi and Bluetooth function?

Thanks a bunch

Update: I've just received my phone back from the shop (after a grueling 7 week wait...sigh) anyhow according to the guys at the store the problem is apparently due to a hardware issue instead of a software error after upgrading to kit kat (4.22).

Though he didn't actually specify what exactly was wrong, so not much of a help, sorry.

Do't worry, here is solution.

Update (05/02/2016)

I had been same issue, I had tried saveral possible solutions, for some hour problem had been disappeared. When same issue again appeared then I visted hardware repearing shops more then six, I described the issue 5 out of 6 diagnosed that it is probem of an IC programmed for Wi-Fi & Bluetooth as a single chip after replacing it this issue can be resolved. When a agreed he opened my set in front of me then removed an IC & replaced an other in front of me with in 40 minutes for 1000 PK RS. about $ 10. After reassembling it was ok, a month has been passed. I have not faced issue again battery works as normal, no heating, WiFi Bluetooth works properly with same proficiency.

So go to a good repare shop asked for Wi-Fi IC chip replacement asked charges if u satisfied then give for replacement. Its only solution. It will work

Faiz, Thanks for the information....but sorry it did not worked for my case too. LG Service Center asking me to replace the complete mother board and other non-authorized service guys told me that this is problem with several LG mobiles and it need an IC to be replaced, but that I C can be replaced only if some trace of LG G2 mobile comes....LG do not supply that IC as spare!

I have same problem anyone can help ?

Which app locker?

door

which app locker?

door

I tried to find out what "app locker" means but didn't, however, I DID go back and look at what I had recently updated, and one was called "Android System Webview" and I told it to uninstall updates (rather than disable) and my wifi worked again. However, tonight it is turning itself off again, which eats up data! and I did the trick of putting it on airplane mode, turning on wifi, then turning off airplane mode and so far it's stable, but if it starts up again i'm going to just start undoing all the updates I did. When I looked at the list of things I had updated I tried to logically think about what they did and what to eliminate first. Mystery.

now it's not working again, ugh.

here the answer of your problem:

It's only because of application software, not because of hardware problem!!!

this problem happen because the setting in your antivirus/protection application software.

It can be because the antivirus application is still unstable.

You may check to setting at antivirus application (here is ""McAfee Security"), go to wi-fi security setting, turn it off. Then you may exit the antivirus application. Try again to turn on your wi-fi. Then your wi-fi get normal again......thanks God....

You're very affirmative. In my case i did several hardreset, upgraded and downgraded ROM and the probleme persist. In some case at least it really looks like hardware issue

Probably I have solved the issue disabling the "Web protection" in my Avast antivirus app. Current settings in Advanced Wifi section are: Keep active during sleep: yes - Allow Wifi scanning: yes - Notify open Wifi networks: No

Hi, I have the same problem on my LG G Flex. I found that if you clear the cache partition which you go to options>general>storage>cached items>click on it>hit yes>hold power button until phone restarts or hold power for three seconds and select the option to power off and restart. Fixed for me everytime
