Default You probably don't know the answer but what allows WiFi scanninganyway?

I have never used WiFi Direct so I don't think it's in peer-to-peer mode.
Besides, the phone connects to WiFi when I manually type in the (very long
complex) SSID.
It just won't find any SSID when I press the scan button.
I think it's time for a factory reset, which should fix the problem.


My phone finds all SSIDs, but connects to none. If I tap on the home
ssid, it asks for the password (which it knows for sure).

Instead, I tap "more options", which displays the same list of SSIDs in
white background instead of black. There I switch off the WiFi, than on
again, and it instantly connects to my WiFi remembering its password.

This behaviour started about last November or December.

I also noticed that Bluetooth would not automatically connect to my car
hands-free device. It has started working again after I received a
security update about a week ago.
