hey guys.
I'm facing this weird problem on my Neo V. I upgraded to ICS but then downgraded to official GB ROM. Since then, i have this problem with Wifi. My phone connects to the home wifi but doesnt access the internet. I tried reinstalling the ROM, it worked fine in the beginning but after installing all my apps and restarting the phone a couple of times, the problem returned. I tried reinstalling the GB rom several times, and it worked fine in the beginning and problem later. I tried the ICS rom again, hoping the issue wouldnt bother me in that but same story. Please i need an explanation to what this menacing problem could be and how can it be resolved. Already scraped google as much as i could..
So that problem started after you downgraded from ICS to GB? You didn't have that problem while you were on GB or when you upgraded to ICS(that is if you were long enough on ICS)?
Does it happen with any router or only with your home one?
How long does it take to start having problem?
Have you tried to use clean ROM, meaning without your apps(which you install after) or some time and after few restarts?

Hi
I have tried many ICS roms and they seem to have wireless problems.
at times it takes time for them to connect or at times they are not able to connect. sometime there is no error message but at times i get authentication error (btw authentication credentials are correct). Is something wrong with ICS. Si anyone else have these problems. Is there any fix for it. i have tried many ics roms with different combination of kernels, mostly its the same issue.
i always have to revert back to GB rom and wireless is fine.connects instantly
any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Hi,
Same here. But I can't decide if it is because of juice defender or ICS. In GB worked ok even with Juice defender.

I've had the same problem. Tried many different ICS roms over the last 2 weeks or so.
The last one I tried - HyDrOG3N-ICS was horrible...
Wireless would not connect at all, even though I was standing right next to the router.
After reading through the forums etc I decided to start from scratch.
I reloaded stock Samsung rom with odin, hard reset the phone, formatted my external sdcard and deleted everything on the int sdcard.
I then loaded latest siyah GB kernel.
After this, I install HyDrOG3N-ICS 23.03
Installed GApps
Rebooted and waited 20 minutes (read it somewhere on the forums)
Rebooted and changed to SiyahKernel v3.0beta6 kernel
And finally installed DXLP7 modem.
I then reloaded all my apps from Market (Not apps restored from backups)
After all this, everything seems to work very well... Wireless is connected and working well.
I do have a problem with mobile data disconnecting every now and then, but it returns after a minute or so - might even be a problem with my provider.
I dont know which one of these steps was actually required - but this sorted it out for me.
It's almost like I had 'leftover' bits and pieces of all the different roms I tried... If it makes sense?
I dont know enough to confirm if this was the case - perhaps its not possible.
Perhaps it was just a happy shot that it all worked for me.
If you have a couple of hours spare - give it a bash...
Cheers

i have read many ppl have some issues with wireless on ICS. i was thinking about doing a factory reset , wipe both my internal and external storage.. but seems like quite a big job getting everything back..oh wellif i am really tempted i will go ahead and do it..but will wait for a while for more ICS build to come out.could be a bug in the official roms itself
Hi guys,
I just rooted my phone from 4.3 stock to Omega v21. I have been having wifi issues since upgrading to 4.3 official so I decided to root and flash custom ROM thinking it would help. The problem however, still remains.
The problem is that wifi will not switch on. The button itself moves but does nothing else. It has switched on a couple of times after manually rebooting over and over, and works for a few seconds then back to square one.
I have flashed the bootloader, modem, and ROM multiple times without any change. I have also opened the casing and lifted the gold antennas ever so slightly to no avail.
Any help will be much appreciated. Cheers!
I just purchased this device using swappa, I actually received the device as of today...I do not have a sim card in it, yes it's rooted...Im currently using a stock JB rom 4.0.4 (have no idea which one)...Here's my problem, it's not connecting to any open SSIDs, I have tried atleast 3 or 4 different ones around my town. Its not connecting, just continues to say saved...I have no tried connecting to any secured SSIDs yet because I dont have wifi at my house. I dont think it's a problem of not having a sim card...Im new to this device and this is the first time Ive ran across this problem. Its not my first android phone, Ive been around for a while...Just trying to get some experienced help from some other users with the same phone. It might also help to tell you that I have shut the phone down and restarted. That did nothing....So has anyone had any kind of problems connecting to any open SSIDs using a stock JB 4.0.4 rom ?

4.0.4 is ICS not jb. You can try flashing the appropriate radio. Since you dont know the history of the device LGNPST is a option, so that you have a fresh start with partitions updated and a working recovery. Here is the link for LGNPST http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230994
And here are the radios http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270319
If it's on 4.0.4, that's ICS, and if its rooted, it's possible that the JB radio was installed, which could be a problem, because WiFi only works on ICS with the ICS radio, the JB Radio breaks wifi on ICS; also, teh ICS radio breaks wifi on JB.
I'd recommend either flashing a more up-to-date rom, or flash the ICS radio.
Problem was fixed with up to date rom

Good day mates. I have a problem with my XU; whenever I turn on the Wi-Fi on my phone, it gets stuck on a boot loop. May it be on a stock ROM or a custom ROM (ICS, KK, et al.) I've yet to try GB.
I've read several threads in XDA and Google about this and no one has provided a fix or a diagnosis. There is quite a lot of issues like mine not just on the Xperia U, but other Xperias as well. Could this be a hardware problem? Does anyone know where can I locate the file responsible for WiFi so it doesn't get turned on accidentally and having to reflash the whole ROM again?
Thanks fellow XDA members for your future responses!
Finally fixed this weird WiFi bug. I just flashed stock GB. At first when I turned on WiFi, it showed 'Error', but when i tried it again, it turned on, and Bluetooth also worked fine!
Then I thought if I flashed stock ICS and/ir flashed a KK/LP custom ROM, the bug may return. But fortunately, it did not. Hurray for GB firmware! Hope this fix will help others. )
A friend of mine is using a RN2 for several months now but yesterday wifi won't turn on...
I tried flashing MIUI 8 (because of mtk wifi issues) but still WiFi won't turn on
Any idea's??

Had this same issue a couple of times, on different ROMs. Ive tried many many ROMs, first time it happened was on a fresh install, when I tried loggin in to the wifi network it was like stuck, never said connected to network, it was looping on authenticating and going back to searching, all kinds of "$#%. Tried re-flashing, nothing... well decided to go on another MIUI based ROM, worked fine. Second time it happened was trying EUI 5.0 everything was soooo fine, until out of the blue after a reboot (3 days using the ROM with no issues), same crap happened with the WIfi. Didnt want to re-flash cause all of the chinesse bloat, decided to try cyanechy 2.1 based on CM12.1 working fine. Anyways, try a different ROM it will work at some point. Weird issue though.
It's a helio x10 bug I think they were supposed to fix it with an update
I've flashed sMIUI 8 but still no WiFi
I'll try cm13 if that change anything...

Edit:I have discovered that the Chinese full of blotware from he was using has caused a nmram wipe as result no one and Mac addresses for Bluetooth and WiFi are available
I've tried flashing the full raw ROM from Xiaomi but stii no Mac and imei
So the point is how to restore it??
