May be a network problem. Not in your phone but on your router.
I had the same problem.
Try this:
-erase your network from the phone.
-disconnect the router (or turn it completely off)
-reconnect the router
-on your phone make sure you have automatic IP search (DHCP)
-connect the phone to wi-fi whenever the router is ready
Hit Thanks if it helped

Yeah, I have the same problem with my XM, except that it's working perfectly (but slowly) with the stock ICS rom, but not with any modded rom. The wifi keeps reconnecting to my home network. Already tried a lots of roms and settings, but no success...

Had the same problem. Problem: Something wrong with your efs.rfs file stored on the SD Card. This file controls all 2G/3G connection. Very important. If it is damaged, your phone is doomed. Alternative, try this : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882039
Or, bring it down to service centre after HARD bricking it using ROM Manager(Revert to stock firmware, download ROM Manager and click backup ROM) so that they do not know that you flashed a ROM of you will void your warranty. They will replace the motherboard FOC if you are under warranty.
Haha! Dude thnx but i finally solved the problem
My sim was blocked by the provider.
Maybe because of using a vpn.
I dont know if it violates them but noone said about u cant use a vpn right?
I changed my sim, now its working. Thanks for the help people!

what roms have you flashed in the past and then SBF'ed back from. did you wipe your system prior to SBF'ing back from any custom roms? these could all contribute to the issue.
Hi, I have an x10, When i try to use it as a wifi hotspot my laptop will connect, but with no internet access. and while the hotspot is on the internet will not work on the x10 either.
Barnacle comes up with some sort of intializing error.
The phone is rooted and running 2.3.3.
Any help getting the hotspot working would be great, thanks.

U on stock or on a ROM?

Have you tried using an external app?
Hi, on stock SE firmware.
I have tried an external app, as mentioned in my original post. (Barnacle)
not really wanting to flash a new rom, as its an x10i and dont want to lose any functionality.
but if it was the only way i would flash another rom.
thanks

That's quite unusual if it doesn't work on stock.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
it was on another network before we got the phone though, would that make a difference?
so, is there a fully working rom i can flash, doesnt need to be special. just a full reflash of the same android version with working everything.
thanks
I tried JB recently but since then I have had almost none existent Wifi. It tries to connect but then says Authentication failed.
I appreciate there is a known issue with JB roms not having an updated Bootloader or something of that nature, and I have also read that it is possible to fix the issue by using Odin to revert back to stock.
These are the steps I have taken:
1. Flash Stock Rom using Odin.
2. Reflash Stock Rom using Odin but also updating bootloader.
I have heard that the above steps do indeed fix the issue, but unfortunately I have found no evidence to suggest that.
As there are many people using JB now (well at least there are plenty of ASOP and Stock JB roms knocking about), has anyone else had this issue, and if so, has anyone got a nice step-by-step tutorial on fixing the Wifi issue?
I really need help now, as my phone is almost unusable without a Wifi connection.
Thanks in advance!

There was an issue about wifi in older leaks but it has been solved already. I suggest you should try latest jellybean leak XXDLI1. you will not have to full wipe... so dont worry. you will not lose any data or app or anything....
I've just installed CheckROM EVO HD 5.0 and my Wifi signal is still weak.
You mentioned in your reply that Wifi is fixed in newer JB builds, but why didn't it work going back to ICS stock either?
Really need an answer for this as I'm going round in circles.
I actually never tried going back to ICS.when I had the same problem I just flashed the newer JB and it worked like charm. Try installing different modem..

Does the modem really affect Wifi? I would assume that the modems only relate to the GSM capabilities of the phone.

In that case restore to ICS and wait for JB to be released by Samsung .

As you said before that you already installed back ics which also has different kernel than jb that you used and it didn't worked as well, so tests why I said TRY installing different modem.

why not just download a different rom? lots of custom roms such as hypergalaxy are nice light and basically stock but faster
Problem found!
Ok....I've found the problem.
It appears that my WIFI refuses to connect to any WIFI running on the 2.4Ghz spectrum. Whether I set security as Open/WEP/WPA/WPA2 etc I cannot connect unless I am literally within a metre of the Access Point.
Luckily at my workplace we have 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz spectrums available for WIFI. If I only allow the 5Ghz spectrum on my phone I can connect to the APs without an issue! Leaving my phone on 'Auto', allowing both 2.4 and 5 I cannot connect.
The problem here is, my home router, as with most people, doesn't support 5Ghz, and being with Sky Broadband I cannot get access to my Broadband account details. This of course means I cannot replace my router! :-/ I can however connect a new router to the network, disable AP on the Sky router and enable AP on the new 5Ghz router.
....so I have a work-around!
But this isn't enough! WHY WHY WHY does my phone have problems with 2.4Ghz???
Steps I have taken (in no particular order):
Flashed back to Stock, gone from Stock to Rooted ICS, ICS to JB, back again, and in every combination
Disabled Wireless Power-saving on my phone
Flashed various kernels
Flashed various modems (yes I know modems have nothing to do with Wifi...but some people on this forum insist this can fix Wifi issues)
....and NONE of the above have worked.
Could this be a hardware issue?
Anyone else experience this?
Hi all, first sorry for my bad english.
I have two problems with my Sony U that occur contemporaneously. Suddenly and without any clues, I get "no service" on phone. When this happens, also I cannot turn on or off the wi-fi. Wi-fi options in settings panel stays grey and if I click on it, I get "serching wifi networks". In this conditions also I cannot turn on or off on "Airplane mode": I only can click it and have to reboot the phone to get really on airplane mode. If I again disable airplane, always get no service and no wi-fi. I tried to remove the sim, but I cannot enable wifi anyway. When I bought this phone I have unlocked the bootloader and have installed stock 6.1.1.b.1.54 Vodafone italian stock rom with rooted 6.1.1.c.1.0 kerneland got this problem after two weeks. Then flashed NoSh1t! 6.1.1.C.1.0 rom got on the forum, 10 days and problems occured again.
Please help me, I'm stuck and really frustrated
Thank you for your patience on reading me :good:

Unfortunately it didn't solve the problem. I flashed ginger bread ftf, then munjeni, NoSh1tand I reinstalled all the apps. Today I have rebooted the phone for the first time, and the problem occoured again. The strange thing is that on the phone doesn't appear any error related to missing sim (also if I take out he sim). I'm going to get refund, it's really irritating...

I've factory resetted the phone, re-locked the bootloader and flashed latest 6.0.b.3.184 generic world gingerbread rom, without root obviously. It's working for time being (and it's really faster), but it's soon to say definitively because the first time the problem occoured after 2-3 weeks...
