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.

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:

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.

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...

Well I installed this version and 13 As with the wifi does not work, goes on but just does not work online.
Would greatly appreciate any help, and what they tried eh posted but still the same: S. Thanks in advance
Sorry for my English, a translator.
It happened to me too in v13. I updated to the v14 version and fixed it. Don't forget install the Wlan.zip (4.42 MB) (New Wlan Modules) with CWM Recovery!

Hopefully, that fixes the problem, but don't get too excited
Tried reinstalling, wiping, new wlan modules hotfix etc etc, but the rom refuses to work properly with the wifi. I was able to use the web-browser by telling it which IP to go to, instead of www adresses, but still, the market function and other internet functions won't work.
If I were you, lojoko, I would go for GinTonic, earlier release of MiniCM7 rom or some other rom and wait for MiniCM7 to get fixed again. Hopefully, it will be fixed soon. Love that rom!
Had a really good hunt around for wifi fix. It seems some people get the "Error" when switching on wifi and then it sticks. Had to revert to GinTonic 2.0
i'm having the same issues with v19.
i switched to minicm7 because gingerdx was giving me the same trouble. i'm helpless. In fact i'm thinking about switching back to minicm6(froyo)... Gingerbread is not working for me.

hi,
had the same issue with v19 wifi not working.
then i found out that it worked when the rom v19 was fresh installed, but stopped working after restoring missed apps and all system data with TITANUM backup (backup made on V17)
hope this brings you further with your wifi problem.

I'm using fresh SE install from SEUS and wiping everything before installing MiniCM Pro v19. Still having the issues. I don't use any restoration option.
Need to know is anybody else experiencing this kind of problem.
I unlocked bootloader, installed proper kernel and wifi modules.
First had Lion's rom and got network error every time while searching for networks, so I thought that was rom problem. After I installed Alexander's miui, I had the same problem. It's not modules and kernel problem, cause I tried OC and non-OC versions and it's the same.
And booting time is forever, I mean like 2-3 minutes.
Any help is appreciated..

Anyone?
Which baseband?
Baseband .71
Have you tried flashing the kernel then NOT flashing the Wifi modules? I used it for a few days without flashing the Wifi mods and used Wifi regularly... then I flashed the Wifi mods and had the same errors you're getting.

WiFi is fine, network error is problem.
But I'll try, maybe it will work.
Hey guys as the topic says anytime I change my kernel my wifi won't connect and its frustrating I've done full wipes and reflashed my Rom and I still can't get it to work
Any suggestions would be appreciated

Make sure you flash kernels with CWR. I know people who were using kernel manager to flash were having problems with wifi connecting, but that was a while ago so it may be fixed by now.
I just got my Rezound and got it perm rooted and tried unsucessfully to make wifi tethering work.
I then tried to install CWM and all seemed fine but Wifi stopped working.
When I enabled Wifi I would get scanning then error.
I hard reset it and now I simply got an error.
I am not using a custom Kernal unless CWM installed one (I kind of doubt it)
Please help.

Please help
My WiFi is also broken. I'm perm root with Ziggy's kernel (Vigor GB Kernel) and Ching'ys rom (Ineffabilis v1.0). In Ziggy's thread it states that the WiFi error is due to the rom, not the kernel. Chingy's thread states that the WiFi error is due to the kernel not the rom. there are people using stock kernel and Chingy's rom with working WiFi.There are people using Ziggy's kernel on stock rom with WiFi working.Ii have tried wiping and re flashing. Still nothing. Anyone help would be great!!

If you have an Error under your wifi in settings, that means that you need to reflash the kernel. You will generally need to reflash the kernel AFTER the rom to get the wifi to work.
I have heard that its related to the Kernal not the Rom in all my readings. Unfortunately that does nothing for me since I havent changed the kernal or the rom all I have done install CWM and tried to get Wifi Tethering working. It broke sometime when I did those two things.
Have you gone back to stock on the Kernal? I have heard all over the place that people are having boot loops and wifi errors with Ziggy's Kernal. If you continue to have problems I would try the Kernal. I have never heard that a ROM has broken Wifi.
