One Factory reset
Two Install stock rom
Three return to service centre mentioning that you have read a lot about these issues you have .
jje
Make sure your WiFi is not using any channels above 11. If so, the stock firmware is able to briefly scan and find the wireless but not connect.
I had/have the same issue and the only way to fix was to change my wireless to use a lower channel and not auto switch channels.
Turns out this was (I believe) a limit in 2.3.3. Though I've tested on 2.3.4 (Nexus S) and this has the same issue.
I posted a similar problem else where and one person responded saying that (the leaked ) stock 2.3.4 firmware in wireless -> advanced settings has an option to set Regulatory <something> that allows all channels to be used.
Hope this helps,
I got a same issue. And, I had changed a lot of ROMs but still in this condition. Did you found the solution? Thank you very much
I get the same issue...
When i go to wifi settings and turn it on, it starts scanning and seconds later it turns off. Sometimes it won't even turn on and i have to make a hard reset.
Tried different ROMs and android versions but that was to no avail...
Any ideas?
my s2 also have problem on wifi and hotspot.. when i try to switch on the hotspot.. there is an error underneath.
can somebody help?
i oso flashed 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 firmware but jus no help..
Found any solution ?

[Q] Problem with the wifi

Hello,
I have a problem with my "galaxy ace" subsystem "android" Gingerbread.xwKS9 version 2.3.5.
Indeed, the wifi always disconnects after a few seconds or minutes and it randomly. (I set the wifi so when the phone switches, Wi-Fi activated, and when the screen turns off the wifi as well)
For information, I installed "TasKiller" and also "Android assistant" to free memory resource to start the phone but it makes no difference.
This problem is difficult and I have not found a solution so far to resolve it.
Do you have a solution to make me (change of ROM or other ...)
I do not use special software except:
- Apps Organizer
- Calengoo (1.0.56)
-Llama
- TasKiller
- The software includes basic mail
- Go pro sms
The phone is root.
(i think il will try too install CyanogenMod Android 2.3.5 on my Samsung Galaxy Ace to try to solve the problem ?)
Thanks for your answers.
Go to settings -> wireless and networks -> wi-fi settings -> press the left feather button of your phone -> tap on advanced -> wi-fi sleep policy -> change it to 'never'
Please press the thanks button if I helped you
I've already done this... but without succes.
My phone is now with CyanogenMod...
For the moment Wifi is ok and always on.
Thanks for your help.
Have you considered checking your wifi router? I had this problem before... and thought it was the Ace acting up.. but then it was my wifi really causing the problem...
The thing i notice with most android phones is that home setups don't work how they should. I always give my device a dedicated (static) IP and never had a problem since.
Thanks for your answers.
For th moment, my device stay in wifi...
I change my ROM with a CYANOGENMOD, i don't know if this ROM solve my problem.
If no, i will chek for my wifi router or to put a static IP...
Thanks
EDIT :
Il work well with cyanogenmod

Need help with Wfi keeps turning if self off

Can someone please help me with my S3's Wifi?
I was using the phone during Viber/Skype calls, but my wifi keeps turning it self off every 5 minutes or so. I have no idea what setting I forgot to turn it on/off.
Currently these are the settings are set on my phone:
Keep wifi on during sleep >>> Always
*#001# >>>> Wifi Power Save mode (Off)
Is there anything else I missed???
PS: I also found out other people also having similar issue as mine - - http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1943352
What rom are you running? If you run something like xxalf 8, do a upgrade to xxlfb or xxLg8 version. It got a newer modem on board that should fox the issue. Also turn off in wifi settings the point, notification when free network available. Hope that helps you.

Stock Rom. By the way, what do you mean by turn off in wifi settings "the point"?? May I ask what point are you referring to?

[E10i] Stable wifi tethering - which ROM?

Or does anyone know how to set up to work correctly?

the teethering stops after the screen turns off because the default settings turn off the wifi after the screen is locked ( to save battery).
so go to settings and find the wifi sleep policy option. there you can change it to remain on even after the screen is turned off.
in reply to your other question-> minicm7 2.2.1 is the best rom out there ( at least thats my opinion).
Oh, man, thank you very much! Didnt know about this option, although I saw it months before. Now I have the right settings so dont need to change to different ROM
(minicm7 roxxxxs x) )
penthaler;
i am using X10 E10i and i flashed MiniCM7-2.0.7, now wifi is not working it just keeps operating not working ?
any solution ?

Reflashing maybe helps. And if you use custom kernel, it will be much better to flash latest one with MiniCM7-2.2.1

brother, I've flashed my rom via CWM, because i couldn't understand the ( unlocking bootloader + kernel flashing ) installing from sdcard was simple, so please help to flash your way :cyclops::crying::angel:
Gingerbread 2.3.5/CM7 was the rom and no kernel.

So, the same problem still remains. Searched and tested many different settings and still, after screen turned off, the wifi tethering stops working and all devices are disconnected.
And the best joke is, that there is NO wifi sleep policy option in phone settings (or I didnt find it there). Show me the way to that option please. THX
(the one I found was only "changing wifi to 3G")
THX
btw. when using wifi tethering in girlfriends Galaxy Ace, there is no problem and all working great (even when screen sleeps). She got stock ROM with root only - no special settings!
half solved - must be pluged on charger for all options!

Yeah, but it didnt work. Tested all three options and each working (including that NEVER) only when the screen is in standby or charger is plugged. When locked after half a minute wifi stops working - ALL OF THEM!
Any other advice or special option in cyanogenmod settings? Any patch or possibility to change some file in phone system?
It is great to have this feature everywhere "on-the-go", not only at home...
Stock Kernel
CWM Recovery
MiniCM6-1.0.2
App: Barnacle (rooted phone needed)
Wifi tethering works great (just WEP encryption, though)
App tethering not working - app starts, create AP, but cant connect to it with other devices... But thanks for advice to test it.
I'm using GingerDX | v029 never had problem using wifi/usb tethering :good:

I replied to your question in the other thread.
But just in case -
Had a similar problem, just a few days back. Here is what I did -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=5888
Basically wipe EVERYTHING(data,system,dalvik,cache) and try again...
Also do you have correct Radio/Baseband/Modem?
Can you connect to any 2G/3G/4G network? Try that too!
If not, find a Radio that is compatible with your device AND the CM version and install.
