WiFi -> 3G -> WiFi ). Both scenarios were reproduced on mako. Scenario 1: 3G: online WiFi: enabled; connected to AP 1 - display network menu - tap another secure network - tap cancel when Password dialog is displayed At this point the indicator shows '3G' whereas the network menu still shows the original AP 1 as connected. After some period of time ( 10s - 1m ), the icon will change back to show that WiFi is connected. Scenario 2: 3G: online WiFi: connected to AP 1 - go to System Settings::WiFi - click "Previous Networks" - select the currently connected AP/network - click Forget Network - go back to WiFi settings The WiFi settings correctly shows the AP is no longer connected, however again the network icon takes some time ( 10s - 1m ) to reflect the change back to "3G".
