Realme 12 Pro 5G Not Connecting to Wi-Fi? 12 Quick Ways to Fix

Nowadays, it’s pretty much essential to have your Realme 12 Pro 5G or smartphone connected to the internet. Whether you’re watching videos, looking something up, or using any kind of app, you need the internet for these applications to function correctly.

This is why it can so annoying when it gets to a point where the internet connection isn’t working. However, the problem of a web page not loading correctly is just the tip of the iceberg.

There are plenty of problems you could experience, whether it’s the Wi-Fi network keeps disconnecting on its own without any warning, perhaps a security issue where the passcode or IP address isn’t being registered properly, or even if the connection is just being super slow, even if there’s no reason too.

Luckily, despite there being so many problems out there, there are also many solutions. Today, we’re going to share with you the complete definitive guide to help you get your Realme 12 Pro 5G connected and free from problems and issues.

Part 1: Restart your Realme 12 Pro 5G

Begin by powering off your Realme 12 Pro 5G and unplugging your router. Wait for about a minute before plugging in the router and turning on your device. This simple reset can often restore stable connections and fix Android wifi not working.

Part 2: Turn on Airplane mode and turn off

Part 3. Check Wi-Fi Router settings

The third step you’ll want to take is making sure the internet router in your house is working properly and is actually sending internet data to your Realme 12 Pro 5G. Of course, if you have other internet-enabled devices connected to the same router and they’re working fine, you know this isn’t the problem.

However, if you’ve got a problem with Wi-Fi not working on your Android and other devices in your home or office, you know you’ve got a router problem. Here’s how to solve it.

  1. Go to your internet router and check the indicator lights
  2. While this depends on your device, a green or blue light will mean the connection is good, whereas a red light indicates a problem
  3. Press the Restart button on your router and wait ten minutes before reconnecting your device and connecting again
  4. Call up your internet provider to see if there’s an internet connection issue in your area
  5. Open your web browser and log into your router settings to ensure your Realme 12 Pro 5G is connected to the Wi-Fi network and is allowed to send and receive data

Part 4. Boot your Android in safe mode

If you’re unable to connect to the internet, but other devices have no issues, you may find the issues is coming from within your Realme 12 Pro 5G itself. Fortunately, there are ways you can see whether this is the problem.

The best way to do this is to boot your device in Safe Mode. The process for doing this will depend on the make and model of your Realme 12 Pro 5G, but the basic process goes as follows;

  1. Turn off your Realme 12 Pro 5G by holding down the Power button and tapping Power Off. Wait a few minutes to ensure the Realme 12 Pro 5G device is completely off
  2. Press and hold the Power button to turn your phone on, but the press and hold both the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time
  3. You will see the words ‘Safe Mode’ appear on your screen as the Realme 12 Pro 5G device loads
  4. Now you will be booted in Safe Mode. Try connecting to the internet again to see if it works

If your device connects to the internet while in Safe Mode, you’ll know you have a problem with an app or service that’s running on your device. If this is the case, you’ll need to go through your apps and delete them and then reinstall them one at a time until you find the app or service that is causing your internet problems.

Part 5. Check the Android Wi-Fi adapter

If you’re using a Wi-Fi adapter on your device to connect to the internet, you’ll need to make sure this is working. This could be an adapter on your Realme 12 Pro 5G itself, especially if you’re using an older device, or if you’re using an adapter to boost the ranger of your router network.

You need to check both of these to make sure your connection is working properly.

  1. If using an Android Wi-Fi adapter, make sure all the Realme 12 Pro 5G device drivers are up to date, and if you’re using an app, make sure the app is updated, and all the settings allow an internet connection
  2. If you’re using a router adapter, make sure it’s set up properly, and your Realme 12 Pro 5G is connected to the adapter using the correct passwords. Try connecting another device to see if the internet connection is working on there
  3. Whichever method you’re using, try disconnecting your Realme 12 Pro 5G and forgetting the network, and then reconnecting and entering the right password to refresh the connection

Part 6. Check SSID and IP address on Android

To make a Wi-Fi connection work, your Realme 12 Pro 5G needs to match two codes that connect and relate to your router to establish the connection and work correctly. These are known as the SSID and the IP address.

Every wireless device will have its own codes and making sure they’re matched to the network you’re connecting to is crucial to ensuring the internet is working on your Realme 12 Pro 5G. Here’s how to check on your Realme 12 Pro 5G to make sure everything is correct.

  1. Tap the Settings menu option, followed by Wi-Fi on your Realme 12 Pro 5G
  2. Turn on your Wi-Fi network and connect it to your router
  3. Find the router name (SSID) and make sure it’s exactly the same as the SSID written on your router
  4. Once connected, tap the Wi-Fi network and you will see the IP address. Check both your phone and the router codes to make sure this number matches

When these numbers are matching, if your Android is still not connecting to wifi, you’ll know this wasn’t the problem.

Part 7. Fix Android system issues in one click

If none of the solutions above are working, this could indicate a real problem with the firmware and operating system of your Realme 12 Pro 5G. Fortunately, a fast solution to get everything working again is to completely repair the software of your phone.

You can do this easily using powerful Android recovery software known as Dr.Fone - System Repair (Android) . This is the leading repair tool on the market and is designed to fix and repair any firmware and software problems you may be having.

When experiencing problems with your Wi-Fi network, it’s worth noting the problem might not be with your phone, but rather the Wi-Fi network itself. This is why it’s important to make sure you check the connection on another device.

Of course, if you’re already using another phone on your Wi-Fi network, you know this isn’t the case. However, if you’re not sure, here’s what you need to do;

Part 9. Change the password of the Wi-Fi

How To Restore a Bricked Realme 12 Pro 5G Back to Operation

In moments of lag or freezing on your Android, you might brick Your Realme 12 Pro 5G, which can be unsettling. This is more than just the loss of a device. A bricked cell phone also involves potential data erasure. Yet, it’s crucial to understand the true implications of a bricked phone. This page tackles how to address the issue of a bricked Android phone.

This comprehensive guide aims to the reasons behind Android phones becoming bricked. By reading below, you’ll learn effective methods to unbrick a mobile phone without the risk of data loss.

man holding a bricked phone

Part 1. What are Brick Phones: At a Glance

The term “bricked phone“ is used when a device becomes non-functional. This is typically due to a critical software or firmware error. There are two distinct scenarios for encountering a bricked phone: a soft brick and a hard brick.

  • Soft Brick. A soft brick entails a phone that’s not operational due to software glitches or conflicts but is not irreparable.
  • Hard Brick.A hard brick signifies a more dire situation. This is where the phone becomes inoperable, resembling an actual brick in terms of functionality.

The Common Causes of a Cell Phone Bricking

Below are the common causes why a cell phone bricks.

Failed Updates

When a firmware or system update fails, it can lead to a bricked phone. Updates involve intricate changes to the phone’s software. If interrupted or incompatible, the Realme 12 Pro 5G device may get stuck in a state of partial functionality. This can result in a soft brick.

Failed Flashing

Flashing involves installing custom firmware or software onto a device. If the flashing process is interrupted or if the firmware used is not compatible with the Realme 12 Pro 5G device’s hardware, it can cause a hard brick. The device’s essential software components may become corrupted, rendering the phone unusable.

Rooting

Rooting, which grants users superuser access to their device’s OS, can lead to bricking if not done right. Rooting often involves making deep system changes, and errors can disrupt the phone’s core functionality.

Installing Bad Apps

Installing malicious, incompatible, or poorly coded apps can lead to a soft brick situation. In severe cases, they can trigger a boot loop or render the phone unresponsive.

Others

Several less common factors can also contribute to bricking. Overclocking, attempting to modify the bootloader, or tampering with system files can lead to disastrous consequences. Hardware issues, such as faulty memory or battery problems, might also manifest as bricked devices.

Part 2. Unbricking Methods and Tools

Below are solutions that you can employ to fix various brick phone scenarios.
