Hi, I was able to flash cm7 (nightly build 36) rom and glitch v10 kernel for my telus fascinate
Only problem I'm having is the wifi that won't even try to connect.
When I turn on wifi, it immediately says 'error'.
It doesn't search for networks or anything.
My 3g works without a problem though.
I have tried pulling the battery and rebooting many times and tried using airplane mode to solve it but had no luck.
Thanks for your help!
I recently udgraded my phone firmware using kies mini to UVKB5. Everything went off well. However, after the update my phone's wifi is not working properly. It sleeps automatically after using it for about 5 mins and I need to disconnect and reconnect the wifi to make it work. But the again it stops wroing after 5 mins. Many times the wifi doesnt get ON and gives an error. Can somebody please help me with this problem? How can i reinstall the firmware update again. Is there any other way to resolve this problem?
I'm also on stock KB5 via Kies mini and I get that same wifi error sometimes when I try to turn on wifi. I suspect it's just a minor bug. It's annoying and the only way I can get the error to go away is to restart my phone.
Hoping someone can help me out... My phone wont connect to my wifi at home (only place I use wifi). It gets hung up on "Obtaining IP Address" every now and then it will also show "Connecting, authenticating, not in range" but always comes back to obtaining IP address and never connects. I first noticed this after I had switched ROMs this past weekend. Went from MIUI to JTs VGB V7... Switched back to MIUI to see if it would fix it and nothing ( Always wiping cache, Dalvik, data in between) Have a tried a few other ROMs since and still getting the same problem... Flashed back to stock this morning and still cant connect to my wifi... I know its not my wifi because I am using it right now on my laptop... My wifes phone can connect without a problem (her phone is on PWGB v2). Anyone have any suggestions??
Thanks in advance!!
I don't know if the modem has anything to do with wifi connectivity but if your wife's phone has no issues on pwgb its worth looking into...what modem are you on versus her? Are they both on the same one?
Also have you tried just deleting your network and re setting it up?
Toggling wifi on/off, airplane mode on/off...not even sure any of those will make a difference just trying to figure out why your phone won't connect but your wife's phone will?

Yeah its pretty weird... We are both on the same modem, EC09. I have tried just about everything.
I had the same problem once. I re-downloaded the rom and kernel in the computer, put them in the sd card then, wipe data and cache and flash it without restoring any backups. That did the trick for me.
Kernel might have borked the IPtables. wipe caches and reflash the kernel.
I installed check rom revoHD v4 and wifi just stopped working. When i activate it, it says its activating, it turns on and a few seconds lates it turnos off. It never gets a mac adress.
I tried changin kernels (siyah 2.51), and modems with no luck. Anyone has an idea how to fix it?
Thanks
(everything else seems to be working fine, bluethooth gps etc)

What kind of security is your wifi modem is having? is it wps smthng lk that? Did you tried with different wifi hotspots?
it doesnt have any security, i disable it
The thing is that it doesn even recognize that there is a wifi signal, it just turn off automatically before without detecting any wifi signal, i tried at work and the same thing happened
(sorry if i misspelled a lot of words jejeje)
try to flash another ROM and see if it works...

i restored the backup i made with cwm and everything works fine now (touch x-power rom), and if i reinstall check rom the wifi goes out again, it seems it deletes something that leaves me with no wifi mac adress (i searched in about the phone, turning on and of wifi and every time it said not available)
Bizarre...
im getting the same thing, did anyone find a solution?
had this same exact issue.. it is a hardware problem.. so changing rom, kernel or fw wont help you at all... only solution is going to samsung service center.. my problem was solved in 3 days..so many s2 users have this problem..
take a look at these threads...

There are a lot of problems with KK5 and wifi. If you update Busybox it borks it completely. I can't connect to my 5Ghz home wifi but the 2.4 Ghz works fine. I also can't connect to some wifi that uses WEP. All works fine with previous builds. I have seen threads that suggest replacing the wpa_suplicant file from Android 2.3.5 fixes the problem.
Yesterday,after I flashed stock ICS rom through odin, I noticed that i can't connect to any kind of wifi connection, even wifi sharing from other devices! it says just "obtaining ip address" and nothing. stuck like that forever. What?

My problem was unable to turn on wifi, wifi stuck at the stage of turning on.... and forever like that cant off and on.
Most probably is hardware problem coz i have tried many ways to solve including flash back to stock rom,change modem,change kernel and etc.
good luck for you,hope you are not the same problem with me.

Wifi is kernel-related.
So, try to flash another kernel to test.
Or if you don't want to flash another kernel, check in menu Settings > wifi > (menu button) Advanced > Use static ip.
Try to enabled and connect.
Then disable and try to connect.
If that does not help, try to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache) in recovery mode.
Press Volume UP + Home + Power buttons as long as the recovery menu appears, then select wipe cache and reboot the phone.
P.S.: Check the configuration of your wifi router / WLAN access point, that is allows your phone to connect.
ok so i did everything again just to be sure and... my mistake! the problem starts not after the rom flashing but after cf root! have i done something wrong maybe?
I would say look for a custom rom that is already pre-rooted so then it should have all bugs to do with wifi removed.
I used to have a problem with the wifi myself which caused problems when turning it into a wireless hot spot and then wouldn't turn back off again.
But now im on the Custom Rom I am having no problems with wifi at all.
Hope this helps.

Actually, I would say try a different kernel. CF-root is a kernel. Wifi drivers are in the kernel. Ergo... ?
Wifi is kernel related issue
try changing your kernel
you mite wanna chk dis

Im having the same problem here, any luck so far?
may have something to do with the root. my phone had this issues once. just flash your phone with the correct rom and do NOT root it again as it may have something to do with the root itself. or just something got messed up during the rooting process
