If restarting or rebooting your phone didn’t fix the issue, you should consider performing a hard restart. A hard restart will clear all the data from your phone’s memory. This should help resolve any glitches that might be caused due to the system processes. Here’s how to hard restart your phone:
- Press and hold the Power and Volume Up buttons on your OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite.
- Do not release the buttons until you see the OnePlus or the Android logo.
- Once your device has restarted, check to see if Wi-Fi is working again.
Solution 6: Reboot your Router
If your Wi-Fi still isn’t working, you might consider rebooting your router. If your Wi-Fi router is going through problems, it won’t function properly. This means that the Wi-Fi on your OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite will also not work properly. Fortunately, fixing this issue is really simple. Just restart your router.
Here’s how to restart your router:
- Unplug the router from the power outlet and wait for a few minutes.
- The more you wait, the better the result will be.
- Now, plug your router back in and see if the Wi-Fi works properly.
Solution 7: Check for Software Updates
If you still have trouble with the Wi-Fi connection, you should check for software updates on your device. Outdated software can also cause severe problems for your OnePlus phone. Therefore, keeping your software up to date is always a good idea. Here’s how to update your phone’s software.
- Open the Settings app on your phone.
- Tap on About device.
- Then, tap on OxygenOS at the top of the screen.
- If an update is available, tap on Download and install.
- Once the update is installed, restart your phone, and the issue should be resolved.
Solution 8: Reset Network Settings
If updating the software doesn’t fix the issue, you may want to try resetting your network settings. The network settings include all your Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and VPN connection settings. Resetting the network often helps fix network-related issues, including Wi-Fi connectivity issues.
It is important to note that resetting your network will delete all your saved Wi-Fi networks, Bluetooth devices, and VPN configurations. So, proceed with keeping this in mind. Here’s how to reset the network settings on your OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite:
- Open the Settings app on your phone.
- Scroll down and tap on Additional Settings.
- Then, scroll all the way down and select Back up and reset.
- Tap Reset phone and then Reset network settings.
- Enter your lock screen password and tap Reset network settings again to confirm. All your network settings will be reset.
- Once done, try connecting to Wi-Fi again; everything should work flawlessly.
Solution 9: Factory Reset your Phone
Finally, if everything fails to solve the issue, you should factory reset your phone. Factory resetting your phone will return it to its factory settings and solve any software bugs that might be causing the issue.
Performing a factory reset means that all your data will be deleted. So, take a backup of all your data before proceeding. Here’s how to factory reset your OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite:
- First, take a backup of all your phone’s data.
- Once you have backed up everything, open the Settings app.
- On the Settings app, scroll down and tap Additional Settings.
- Then, scroll down and select Back up and reset.
- Tap Reset phone and then Erase all data.
- Enter your lock screen password and tap Erase data again to confirm.
- A factory reset may take around 15-20 minutes or more, depending on the amount of data you have.
- Once your phone is completely reset, you need to set it up as if it was new. Make sure you have an active internet connection during the setup.
