How did you flash and what baseband are you running? I did a factory reset, flashed stock recovery, flashed stock 354 rom, flashed streakmod recovery, flashed 1.9.1, then did a Dell factory reset. Sounds worse than it really is. I haven't experienced your problem (nor other problems posted by other users) and can only assume that flashing over a fresh stock rom install in some way helps.
Did a cursory test of wifi tethering and it seems to work fine.
Paired my old iphone 3g and browsed a bit and no hitches.
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Installing streakdroid leaves all data in place so reinstalling is only half of it

Im pretty sure did the same thing more or less.. i forgot to mention that it used to work until i tried to create a password for users to connect, upon trying to change or enable a wep code, the activity crashed and since then, it gave me errors everytime i try to enable tethering...

I've searched the forum for a sollution to no avail and since I can't post this in the actual ZMOD 003 thead (low post count) I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem?
When I start up the Wifi on my X10 I am just met with "Error".
I've reflashed and fully re-installed the .71 baseband, ROM and 003 update and this had happened each time (after first phone reboot I think).
I'm otherwise really pleased with the ROM (full camera, 6+ days battery, etc), is there a sollution?
SOLVED: Downgrade busybox to 1.17.1 (re-install by the andriod installer back to the older version) and reboot.
Assuming you have a custom kernel ... After flashing the cm7 zmod rom, try flashing the wifi modules to match your kernel, then reboot phone and wifi should work.
Had this problem on a few of the roms I've tried, got into the habit of installing the wifi modules immediately after installing any rom I try, before rebooting into the new rom for the first time.

u can also try it with static ip.

It's not that it won't connect but the Wifi won't turn on no matter what I try. I've tried this anyway but with no sucess.

Ok thats sounds like some good advice. Noob question but where could I get the wifi modules for zdzihu's custom kernel? Or do you mean flash the default wifi modules? Also do I just install them through xrecovery, I'm a little lost?
Seems like I'm not the only one having this problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135475&highlight=zKernel+wifi+module&page=81
help anyone, im lost without my wifi.
edit:
Busybox seems to be the issue, I downgraded from 1.19.2 (i think) back to 1.17.1 and the wifi went straight back to working on reboot.
Problem seems to be solved, for now. I now have the perfect ROM.
Been looking for a solution for the past 12 hours and have not found any.
Bought a stock i777 with 2.3.4, flashed with SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 and a stock 2.3.5 AT&T ROM. After ANY kernel is flashed, I seem to lose WiFi capability. I have 5 wireless points near my house and it just gets stuck on "Scanning" and then the WiFi turns off. No points are even listed!
Currently running CW 5.0.2.3 kernel, 2.3.5 AT&T stock ROM, UCKJ1 baseband, kernel 2.6.35.7.
TL-DR - Flashed and lost wifi ability.
Which 2.3.5 ATT stock rom is this that you're referring to? Have a link to where you got it from?
I believe I got it from here: androidadvices.com/update-samsung-galaxy-s2-i777-gingerbread-235-firmware/
Did it work initially when you went to 2.3.5? You said you've tried some different kernels, at what point did you notice the wifi broke?
I even reflashed using kernel + non-rooted system package located in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432
Still no WiFi showing. Just says "scanning" then the wifi shuts off.
Update: Flashed Entropy512's stock package + nonrooted with no luck. No wifi. Flashed zetamax kernel after. Still no wifi.
Showed at that time: version 2.3.4, 1777UCKH7 baseband, 2.6.35.7_ZedomaxStockKernel.
Flashed again with a I777UCKJ1 2.3.5 ODIN package that I know will fix the WiFi. It shows version 2.3.5, 1777UCKJ1 baseband, 2.6.35.7 kernel.
Seems like if I flash ANYTHING else besides this the wifi stops working on me.
Solved problems for myself.
Completely unrooted, reflashed ATTGalaxyS2Unroot_SGH-i777.tar. This brought me back to the original AT&T firmware that came with the phone. I then flashed SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar and subsequently used SuperOneClick 2.2 to root.
WiFi seems to be working fine now. I am now running a stock 2.3.4 ROM, UCKJ1, kernel 2.6.35.7...Clockworks version.
If anyone else is having the same issue this should help.
Thanks for the updates. Sounds like a frustrating battle. Glad all is well.

Hrrrrm Having the same issues and the only way I could manage wifi to get back on was going to 2.3.5 which had it's own set of issues. I tried following your steps but one thing I noticed you said you were running UCKJ1 but isn't that 2.3.5? When I flash the exact same files I am still stuck without working wifi
Still noobing it up here - hopefully I can either stumble upon a fix like you did or spot someone else's that matches my issues...
Avoid that androidadvices.com **** - Half the time they link to firmware that isn't even for the device it claims it is, carrying a high risk of a hardbrick.
I only experienced this when I was trying to upgrade kernels using the SHOstock ROM. I get no wifi with siyah and can't send MMS with Entropy's kernel. That's the only time I've had those issues. Maybe you had a bad download? Glad you got it fixed though.
Just to clarify, those kernels work great with most other ROMS I've tried them on.

I had this problem (with wifi, not mms) after rooting from 2.3.6. I eventually flashed Zedomax's kernel using mobile odin and wifi functionality was restored.
I still haven't moved on from there, but probably will sometime this week.

Weird, I cannot think of anything that would cause MMS to fail - what sort of errors?
It's happened to me several times after I flash a kernel. when I attempt to send an mms it just hangs and says sending but it never goes out. Could it be a conflict as I have Chomp set as my primary messaging app? Although if that were the case it should be able to send from one or the other but it doesn't. Can't remember for sure but I believe that I may have flashed the kernel cleaning script beforehand in each instance. The only way I've been able to fix it is to reinstall everything starting with the ROM. I'm sure it's user error.
As info, steps I took to try to fix before I restored:
1) reflash kernel
2) flash radio again
3) tried all 5 radios released (not a radio problem I'm guessing)
4) wipe dalvik and reflash kernel
5) run kernel cleaning script and reflash kernel
No dice, it was bizarre. Is this even the sort of event that you could get an error log from? There was no FC or any error message, you know? If it happens again what can I provide you that would help...can I do a logcat or whatever? ;-)
By the way,I could receive mms, just not send.

Was having problem with WiFi on my T-Mobile SGS2 where it was seem like it was turning on, then try to start scanning for networks then would automatically turn off...I was pulling me hair out reflashing it with different ROMs, and Radios, and doing a "Factory Data Reset" from inside the main Settings screen fixed the problem...thanks a lot guy!
I've done some searching but haven't been able to find a solution to this issue.
Basically, the wifi on my phone just 'dies' after a minute or so with any rom or kernel that I flash other than stock. It even dies after flashing CWM or DD/Siyah kernel onto stock rom.
Any ideas on why??? My Captivate was like a tank and stood up to all sorts of flashing abuse and bad flashes. It seems this sgs2 is similar...with the exception of the wifi. On all roms but stock it seems that if I disable the wifi, then re-enable it then it will work for a minute...then die again. very frustrating.
please give me some clues
Thanks,
What router do you have? And what rom's have you tried?
Have you tried using other modems for our phone? Just wondering if maybe your router only likes the stock modem and when you're flashing other roms, it might be changing you to a modem your router disagrees with. It's just a suggestion, trying to think outside the box. There are two sets of modem builds, just make sure you get the right ones for the right roms. Also try flashing the stock KH7 modem back over the custom rom. I'm no developer so WTF do i know. Just trying to help a brother out. Good luck.
I've tried with both an Asus RTN12 as well as an older Airlink 101. Both B/G/N routers which I've tried the stock firmware as well as dd-wrt. They are setup using channel 1, WPAPSK/AES. Behavior is the same whether the router is set to 20Mhz or 40Mhz. Both routers are based off an RaLink chipset. I don't have a router based on Broadcom (yet).
As for Roms....
UnNamed
ICScrewD
ICS'd out
Coz
Serendipity
By modem I assume that's listed as 'baseband' in the about section of the settings. Stock shows KH7. I've flashed the stock kk6 rom and just checked and it remains kh7 (flashed with Odin).
I did an OTA update to kk6 but neglected to check the modem that was installed with it.
Regardless, the wifi worked as designed under both older and newer stock roms.
I'll flash a rom this weekend and then flash modems to see if I can narrow it down. I'm in the process of moving so the next day or two are sort of out of the question
I personally like WPA2 better (especially with dd-wrt), but to each their own. What do you have your wifi-sleep policy set to? (settings>Wireless->Wifi settings>Press menu button->advanced.)

If your phone is a Samsung i777 AT&T model and you want to get
your wifi working properly then simply download UnNamed v2.2.1
custom rom which is the very best custom rom currently available
for our phones. The UnNamed rom also has superior battery life.
The UnNamed v2.2.1 Custom Rom is not only the most stable and reliable
custom rom but it's also the most aesthetically pleasing rom which is currently
available for our phones. (i777 AT&T)
Since you have tried so many things already be sure that before flashing
another rom that you go into settings>privacy and select "factory data reset".
Then be 100% sure that you have done a "wipe data/factory" reset using
CWM Recovery before flashing another custom rom.
After you flash the UnNamed rom you will no longer have any wifi problems at all.
Be sure that after flashing the rom you make a nandroid backup of the rom
before you install any apps and or before for who knows what god forsaken reason
you should want to change or flash a different kernel rather than leaving it alone
and use the excellent kernel which the rom comes with.
Good Luck!
You sound like an advertisement for UnNamed
Seriously though...I have tried UnNamed from 2.1.1 to 2.2.1
ICScrewD from 1.4 to 1.6.1, etc.
Wifi completely breaks if I flash the CWM or any kernel over the stock. I've flashed so many roms, kernels, and modems over the past 2 weeks I couldn't even begin to count how many.
Just out of curiosity, have you tried connecting to wifi on a different router, like at work or a friends house...? Have you tried resetting your routers? With all that you've tried, it's just strange that you still can't get a connection.

I intentionally left the baseband separate from my UCKK6+root package because people often want to run a different modem than system.
Flashing a new baseband will do nothing for wifi - everyone who tells you that is too accustomed to HTC phones where Qualcomm AMSS runs EVERYTHING.
It's strange if anything but stock fails for you... UCKK6 wouldn't surprise me because it has all sorts of weird BCM4330 (wifi/bluetooth) problems, but I haven't heard of wifi regressions with my kernel when flashed on UCKH7.

Yeah... It's a little annoying. Yeah, Unnamed is an excellent firmware, but "best" is a matter of taste. It's funny that he's pimping a firmware when the firmware dev almost blocked him for that damn penis-gecko.

Logging into a router at work wont do any good since i work from home. the neareat open wifi network is out of range. I did log in to chic fil a once but unfortunately i dont remember the reaults....my mind was focused on lunch.
I have also reset both routers i have here. tried different firmwares foe the routers as well but got the same result...but both of my routers are based on ralink chipsets. two different ralink chipsets at that, but still made by ralink.

be SURE to flash the ODIN based CWM Recovery kernel, not the
CWM flashable kernel to start with.
(because who knows whiich kernel you have now since you have flashed so many)
Below is the ODIN flash CWM Recovery kernel which you should have
flashed in the first place when coming from the stock to custom rom.

Try resetting the security type in the wireless modem/ router to a personal wireless security and try it out. I had some issues with Wifi but after the resetting of the router, the wifi has been working fine.
In the advanced wifi settings, enable up to channel 14, and set your router to channel 11+40mhz (150mbps) and see if that works. Channel 1 might have too much interference for this phone or something... not sure.
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't channels beyond 11 for out of US region?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
From Wikipedia "In the USA, 802.11 operation in the channels 12 and 13 is actually allowed under low powered conditions. "
And its not like the FCC drives around looking for routers broadcasting in those channels, our routers are too weak to broadcast that far. But you're just enabling up to channel 14, doesn't mean that you're going to use it.
WiFi Fail MAC address Bluetooth address Unavailable
I am basically at the same point..WiFi Fail..It will scan and then turn back off. Started off with a stock phone..Followed the customizations steps..No problems reading the Flash Counter..Ran step 2c..It worked Great..passed..had UCKH7 but had no WiFi..Did the wipe data/factory reset as mentioned in other threads and WiFi returned..Then I did the OTA update to UCKK6 and WiFi was still working. So I downloaded Mobile Odin Pro from the market so I could complete step 3a. I had already extracted the zImage from Entropy's 1208 DD and placed it on my sd card. Ran MO on the phone selected the zImage and it ran flawlessly. I am still rooted and have CWM 5.0.2.7..but the WiFi shuts off again shortly after turning it on..So I tried the wipe data/factory reset again but it did not help this time. As far as I can tell everything else works great on the phone, calls, texts and so on...But after looking at some of the about phone settings..I noticed that both the MAC address and Bluetooth Address lines show unavailable...and I think that is why the WiFi shuts back down shortly after turning it on..Now I was going to move onto step 4 and flash UnNamed ROM for practice and then go back to stock using the guide..but I was wondering if I missed something important that caused the WiFi issue
What are the first 6 characters of your mac address? (on stock) At this point... I'm thinking they might have changed the wifi chip or something...

...If you bootloop or things behave wacky, enter 3e recovery (stock kernel means stock recovery) and do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset. If you are reverting from UCKK6 back to UCKH7 you MUST perform this step or wifi will not work.
I Did not go from UCKK6 to UCKH7... i don't think?? So any help on what i need to do would be awesome!
AT&T is the carrier.
Also without having to 100% wipe and re-install.
You need to find the "Return to stock" thread and go from there.
Zedo's kernel is ancient, it will not provide wifi with UCKK6 system images.
Only my kernel, the UCKK6 stock kernel, and (maybe, not sure) SiyahKernel will provide wifi with UCKK6.
Kernels are <8 MB. 300MB = full kernel and system image restore.
My guess is you flashed a UCKH7 stock kernel.

I was using UnNamed v2.2.1 and it was very stable, but I wanted to try Ics, so I'm now using the AOKP 4.0.4 but I'm having issues with the Gps, still doing some tests, if I dont find any, then I'll move to SHOstock2 v1.3

Sounds like it could be hardware failure. To test that, flash back to straight stock followed by a wipe data/factory reset from 3e recovery. If the problem persists, then it is either a problem with your phone hardware, or a problem with the available wifi router signal. You can test the latter by trying to connect on different routers.

Thanks for your response.
I dont want to belive that my hardware is broken.
But i flashed again my SGH-I777, and the problem persists.
My wifi just says "Turning on" when I push button, and it never boosts again.
I changed the kernel and the rom. I restored to old factory settings, and nothing works.
I would like to get back my wifi.
i appreciate your opinions about this issue.
WIFI suddenly stopped
My WIFI also suddenly stopped working
on 7-1-13 I installed aokp_i777_ota-eng-task650_6.24.2013 worked for a month
Yesterday the WIFI stopped connecting. Got a constant "Turning on Wi-Fi" message but nothing else
I installed aokp_JB_i777-ota-eng.task650-ktoonsez-11.20.2012 which I had been running for the last 6 months
Same problem
I did a full wipe. Wiped cache, data, dalvik. Did a fresh install, then wiped cache, dalvik and fix permissions.
Same
a i9100 thread linked a video of a leaking battery inside that disabled wifi
took phone apart, no obvious signs of hardware failure (have pics)
used odin3 v1.85 with ATTGalaxyS2Unroot_SGH-i777.tar to unroot
wifi will turn on scan for a minute then turn off -- will not find any AP
router working fine with my other i777
anything i missed?
My wifi is working fine

hey brother, first of all, your wifi is not damage fisically. But you are in the same situation that i was.
my SGH-I777 is working very well after too much work with it.
i gave my cellphone to my little brother, and two days later he told that the wifi was working fine.
i made this face O_O i couldnt believe what he was saying.
right now i dont know, how he resolved the problem, the only things that he did was change the OS i guess.
i will call him tomorrow to ask about the solutions, but man, dont worry too much coz you just like my brother, will resolve the problem
It is not hardware...
found another thread that suggests FXR WiFi fixer app from play store.
Ran it on the the AOKP JB 4.1.2 from 11.20.20102
seemed to solve issue -- connected to wifi but lost connection after ~30 min
same issue -- constant "Turning WiFi on" message.
ran FXR again -- connects temporarily then loses connectivity
same thing every time i run FXR
should i use a different ROM?
which one?
any help is GREATLY appreciated
Thanks
mike

You could ask in the AOKP thread if there are others experiencing wifi issues with that rom. If not, a fresh install of the rom may solve the issue. It definitely sounds like a firmware issue, but when there is any question whether the issue is firmware or hardware, the test is to flash back to stock and see how it works. As far as which firmware to use, there are a number of different firmware that are completely stable. You should read through the developer threads, and then try them out to see how you like them.
