It's a stock bug, once the devs get a good foothold in the ICS foundation, it's gonna be fixed, just a little patience for now, k?
yeah ok but why the nightmare rom and the fastamaze rom work flawlessly , the wifi that is... they're on ics too.?

Yeah but you see the difference is, most of the roms are stock based, therefore the bug is still there, nightmare and fastamaze on the other hand had to be built from the ground up when it came to hardware things like wifi, so until the guys have some source to work with or have the time to make their fixes from those roms workable on stock, it's gonna be a little glitchy.
i wonder why the phone can see all my neighbors wifi except mine it takes like 5minutes!?

try changing your wireless security type on your router. WPA personal AES works well for me.
I mistakenly deleted my nandroid of my original stock shipped ics rom. When i try to go back to stock with one of the stock roms listed, any wifi is detected but will not connect. Goes through the authenticating and obtaining ip address and juststrats over. I can use energy rom and no problem.

I guess the glitch seems to be worse for you than normal, not much I can say unless someone pulls the files from energy and make a flashable for your phone.

I'm using NRG and the stock ICS radio, and my WiFi connects within a few seconds. Connects instantly, but takes a few seconds to acquire IP addresses & etc.
I think I have the same issue...
I just flashed CM10 onto my Transformer Prime & I'm experiencing the same issue that you describe; the device can see each & every WiFi network in the neighborhood except mine. Please forgive my ignorance but I am not familiar with your device; is it running Jellybean? Your post came up in a Google search that I did re my problem & your post is the closest to describing my problem. Sorry if I am barking up the wrong tree but I've been pulling my hair out trying to sort this one out so any clue would be a massive help to me at this stage.

I have Passion ICS 13.1 ROM. My GPS doesn't work. I've tried the physical hardware fix. But I still get 12 satellites in view but 0 in use.
How else can I get it to work?
I read something about kernals but I'm unsure. Anyone?
change kernel. try the newer kiss kernels or subzero.

Software. If it were hardware, you wouldn't see them at all, or they would be very weak, popping in and out as your phone struggled to lock.
Swyped, not typed, from my Digital Brick
Here are tons of discussions about this problem.
Long story short, try to install NStools and flash subzero#70 using rom manager.
Once it boots up, get a lock with your GPS before the phone goes to deep sleep...
for some reason, after you do this, next time you need your gps it will work... and you can also disable the GPS after that and enable whenever you want...
Sounds weird, but at least I got mine working doing this without need of reboot...
Give it a try

Please only post once, when someone can help you they will post a reply.
Anyway onto the main topic, Basically as said above by Sirp0p0, I would try another ROM, Personally I have no idea what kind of ROM to try, just off the top of my head GTR (Gamer - Talho - ROM), but that is only based on the screenshots, I personally have not tried it.
Just from my own experience, try out different ROMs, find the one that you personally like and suites your own style. If any bugs / issues are found, read the forum / previous posts there maybe updates or updates coming.
When you say it happens everywhere, please describe what you mean.. If you mean everywhere _in_ your house then it maybe a router problem / DHCP disconnecting you, it could also be a screen time out issue, I know that when I am connected VIA wifi to my net, if my screen locks, my internet disconnects (on stock p500 GB rom ver, 2.3.3).
In short it could be various things, to be able to help you can you give us some more information, your rom, build number, can you provide any screenshots? Also how are you trying to access the internet? Through what application exactly? It is also possible it's a buggy app? but these are just my thoughts and ideas, maybe some other XDA members will be able to help you or give you more info than me.
everywhere=my house..school ..friend house and stuff like this.. and what you are talking about is wifi sleep policy i turn it to never so it isnt my problem..but ty for trying

Hey guys, I'm new here so let me know if Im messing up any board rules or customs!
I did a quick search but didn't hit on any exact results... I connect to my home or work WiFi without any drops (which is a whole other situation) but once I leave the range of the WiFi network my EVO doesn't realize and stays connected which means I won't get emails because there is no active connection... So far my only fix has been to turn my WiFi on and off again.. is anybody else seeing this?
It's not the end of the world just a minor nuisance! Im set to auto frequency, best performance and always keep WiFi on during sleep. I feel like that last one might be the issue but I don't want to go to 3G on standby!

I have read about some other people having the same issue here. Wifi as a whole is very glitchy on this device right now and hopefully fixes will be part og hts's fist update.
I am experiencing the same issue. Would love to know how to resolve it.
Sent from my EVO using XDA
I'm also experiencing this. It is slightly annoying, but not a deal breaker. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon enough.
Mine does this as well, but goes a step further. Once I leave the Wifi area I can toggle Wifi off to drop the connection and use 3G. However, when I go back to a wifi area, any network ive previously connected to states not in range. I can pick up new networks, but not existing networks. The only solution is to reboot the device.
Is something the HTC set for battery saving, what happens when you connected to wifi with any device is that it check every 60-90-180seconds (wherever the programmer set) so your phone won't check right away, but when it does it will disconnect, every phone has it but probably HTC put up a high number that way it saves more battery
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
This is starting to get quite frustrating. If I leave the house and need to use navigation or anything requiring data I have to toggle wifi off. Has anyone figured this out or is it potentially a hardware issue where I should seek a replacement?
I made a thread about returning my EVO for another one. I had the same issue. The second EVO is working perfect so far. Way better battery life with this one too.

I spoke with HTC yesterday and they were not aware of a widespread issue with this. When I get more time I will dig into it a bit more as I believe it can probably be fixed with mods to wpa_supplicant. In the meantime, I will be sending some logs to HTC as well.

It's definitely software-based, as it didn't happen with MaXimus 2.1 or CM10, but DOES happen with MaXimus 2.2 and the stock ROM. Oddly, it never happened with the stock ROM before now.
Does it happen to you on more than one WiFi network?

Sorry to bother the community with something thats probably a waste of time. But I need a professionals help/advice. I just recently got the Amaze from a relative and it was on GB when I recieved it. The stock kernel worked just fine, I was able to connect to wifi perfectly with no hassles. But as soon as I recieved the OTA ICS it stopped working.
I did some research and found out the ICS kernels dont like certain settings on WiFi routers, but for the life of me I couldnt find what settings worked. So I decided to S-Off and Root. I installed fauxs kernel at the time which was v008 and everything worked again! Wifi was good but a little spotty at times. But as faux continues to develop awesome kernels the latest just does not work with my wifi router.
Does anyone have any clue on why the kernel does not like my router? I have a DLink, also anyone know how to combine faux kernels v008 to the latest v11. At least I could try to get the modules that worked in v008 and make a hybrid with v11 so I could get the best of both worlds.
Ive actually tried to combine the two kernels in many ways but keep coming up with "WiFi error" when trying to turn it on.
I am certain that some where someone has done this but ive tried Googling it and tried advance searching through XDA but cant find anything that actually helps me understand how to.
Thanks again!

Actually No I have not tried that. Will do now. I will let you know what happens.

So I tried to flash v11 and flashed it twice. Rebooted afterwards. Told the WiFi to forget my router. Did it manually and still the same thing.

Yes I have actually tried to copy the whole Modules folder from v008 to v11 and no go. I get "WiFi Error" once that happens I have to re install the whole rom again.
I even tried to do copy the Modules folder from v008 to Kozmiks kernel, just for sh*ts and giggles. Major fail. Same thing "WiFi Error."
Basically any kernel (even stock) but v008, the WiFi scans connects to my router. Go to test it out . Google page loads about 1/4th of the way and just chokes.

hey, I tried to help in your other thread.. the kind of security you are using on your router(there are so many options, some of which android just can't handle), the kind of router.. there are so many factors involved that may be the issue.
We can try to help you out, but besides switching modules from the version of the kernel that is working for you to the newest release, the "why" is beyond anyone but a kernel dev.. there's only so much the community can do.

SBD I did thank you though sir. Everyone thank you for your information as well. I'm just going to give up on it really. Ive tried many ways to configure my router. Ive reset the whole router more than 10 times back to Default settings and messed with the settings in every way possible.
The D-Link Dir-601 is old anyways perhaps I just need a new router. Just doest make sense on why one kernel works and One version of the phone works as well. Stock GB or Modded GB from NRG works. ICS just doenst like it for one reason or another.
I think ive managed to make a hyrbrid of V8 and V11 faux123 kernels. Combined moduels and the zImage from the Kernel folder as well. Some how the zImage made it bootable. Not sure if in V11 kernel makes the cpu1 go offline. but it does. Ill let ya'll know what happens

Hey guys, currently running Virtuous Prime right now. But whenever I flash a Cyanogenmod ROM (CM 10, CM9 RC and Nightlies) I can't reonnect to Wifi. Right now I'm sending this from my Prime without any issues. But if I flash a CM ROM, suddenly I can no longer connect to wifi. Wifi turns on, and it can recognize any potential networks it can connect too... but whenever I type in the WEP, it doesn't seem to allow me access to it. Anybody have any ideas? Does my Prime just not like Cyanogenmod?
Thanks in advance.

The plot thickens. Just for the heck of it, I decided to try and flash another JB ROM (Black Bean) and this time after trying to connect to wifi, I got nothing... but then I thought, why not set up a hotspot on me 3D? And I got wifi through that... the problem is, I only get a solid 300kbps on it.
So my question is, is it possible to have your mac address change when flashing a ROM? I always thought it was hard coded in (as I flash new ROMs on my 3VO all the time, and used to do the same on my Triumph). That's how my wifi is set up though, you have to manually enter your MAC address into the computer to get it to work... and for some reason I decided not to check it when I went on Black Bean.
A final word, no my hotspot is not encrypted.
i'm pretty sure that the mac address can be masked by software to change the mac address.
but no idea if any of the roms do that.
just find out the mac address for both roms and check?
All I can say is... WTF.
