WiFi problem in SE LWW with CM9 - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I'm running on CM 9 on my Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman. For almost a month I haven't had a problem with my Wi-Fi connectivity. But, since the last 2-3 days, I'm having connectivity issues.
It says connecting then Obtaining IP Address and then loops around. It never gets connected. Can somebody please try helping me out with this.
P.S. I found some new_wifi_modules.zip and tried installing that but without any success so, apart from that, if you got any suggestion please help me out.
Thanks in Advance

Try change your kernel or Reinstall the rom

... Perform a factory reset after installation..

Does it happen randomly or in cetain locations? Wehn the phone has problems does also the wifi on the computer? My phone caused some troubles at home over the wifi network, it gets conflicting IPs with other pc's in the house so i had to do some router dhcp mapping

Nope, always but only since the last few days. Before that, everything was normal. Nope, it's not a problem with the wifi cause my laptop's not having problems.

I haven't had this problem for over a month. I think it should have been a problem if it was the kernel or the ROM

Can't find any WiFi networks when searching

Hi there!
So, I have a little problem with my second phone. The problem now is that I can't find any WiFi networks when I search for one. I have always had connection here home, and it works fine on my XS.
I don't want to restore or flash anything because the reason I need WiFi is to back up the bookmarks I got on the Dolphin Browser that is installed on the phone.
I also want to say that I don't have any SIM-card in the phone because I'm using that one in my XS, but that should not affect WiFi as far as I know.
I'm running Android 2.3.3 and baseband 2.1.71.
So what could the problem be?
Thanks in advance!
What rom have you installed, if so, do you have the right kernel and wifi modules? any details of what you have installed?
Are other pc's or mobiles at home able to perform a search for wifi networks and see the SSID of the router?
Upps.. sorry for leak of info.
I'm running stock ROM. Yeah, I have the right kernel and WiFi modules. The phone have worked well before.
Yes. This phone is the only one who can't find any WiFi networks. It sucks! Never had this issue before.
I am having the same issue. Just started the other day. My phone will not find a wifi network unless it is sitting next to the router. If I am over 5 feet away it just says searching and not in range.
Any thoughts?
Okay, just stood 1 meter from the router, still it didn't find any wifi connections!
This sucks!
When you go to wifi settings and activate it, does the tick apply to the box(enabled) or does not do anything?
It doesn't sound nice. if you are sure that you are running Sony ericsson original software (no custom roms, kernel and else) then try to do a factory reset from the menu, if it doesn't do anything then use SEUS and reinstall the software.
This will prove that this is either or not a hardware fault. It is the best way to check. If it still doesn't work after SEUS reinstall, then it is definitely a fault. If it fixes it then congrats..
If it's a custom rom from here then forget seus and flash the rom again.
Screenshots are welcome if you have..(wifi settings, system info..)
Good luck
The tick apply to the box yes.
Okay, so I connected it to my PC and ran Update Service and did a fresh reinstall of the software. Still the same problem. Can't find any WiFi connections
Well you already know the answer..
Yeah I do.. Think I'm going back to the store with it and get it fixed. Also have some reboots problem that may be related to this..
Thanks for answer.
If you only need your bookmarks just put sim from XS in X10 and turn on and backup info and replace sim in XS.
EDIT: do you have unlocked bootloader? If yes u can try relocking it.

hello mister, I have a same issue with you.
my LWW cannot find a network althought I was sitting in front of the router and it says not in range.
but sometimes it can works well, but it often cannot work
still searching for the solutions
Think its the wifi antenna thats failing.
First I couldnt find any WiFi networks. I had it off for a few weeks (got my Xperia S xD) and when I tried it, it worked well.
So its not easy to find the solution for this.. It sounds like a hardware issue
Sry m8.

WiFi crashing

Hi guys,
I'm running 4.1.B.0.431 pure stock (no root/never flashed anything) firmware and I'm experiencing this bug - every time I try to connect to any (and I mean ANY - I tried tens of WPA2, WEP and Open networks), it will connect at first (with good signal strenght as I always tried it standing next to the router if it was a problem with signal) but immediately disconnect and then won't even find that network that I connected to before, I have to wait a minute or two to find it again, but then the procedure repeats.
Can anyone help me ?
P.S. : there is no problem with router as I tried changing every single option on my home network, upgrading firmware of router and entering my MAC,nothing helped.. I also tried lots of other networks so I assume the problem will be in my phone, but - where ?
Thank you very, very much.

not yet, but I don't want to lose my apps and don't have any other backup method - I would go for that only if it was really the solution.
You can backup your apps via android assistant.. Also you can backup contacts via Google about..

Xperia U: very weird wifi problem

My girlfriends XU is acting up ultimately weird..
Since some time we have this problem:
Wi-Fi only works for about 3 minutes when connecting to a wifi signal, yet the wifi signal icon indicates as if it has a good connection. The only way to regain connection again is to reboot, but then the same problem repeats itself, after a few minutes wi-fi is not working anymore. Also in the wifi-indicator the "send" arrow works, the "receive" arrow doesn't.
Basically if you want to discover a new wi-fi connection you need to reboot the phone also, because otherwise the previous connected wi-fi signal remains (it freezes as stated before after about 3 minutes).
Tried a factory reset already.. Didn't work. The phone runs the stock sony android 4.0.4.
Any idea's ?

Does it happen with all routers or only with your router?
Have you tried to repair using SUS?
Someone one the official forum had a similar problem and it was fixed by repairing the phone using SUS.

[Q] Can't turn Wifi off

Hi,
I have a problem with my Xperia P.
If i'm connected to a wifi network and then go away (lose range), it becomes impossible to turn wifi off. If i click the toggle, it shows it has turned off, but is still on and when i revisit the menu, the toggle appears to be on again.
Any advice on how to put this to a rest? I really don't have the nerves to do a factory reset and resintall/reconfigure everything...
edit: i have the stock ICS firmware and no root access.
Thanks,
M
Have you check it with power recycling?

Hi,
only a factory reset helped. I remebered that i have been trying out some tasker apps, so that must have messed things up. Even uninstalling these apps did not help, beware
I am having the same issue, but whats more I can't scan for new networks when entering a new area. It just shows the ones from the previous area with the strengths they had there.
Rebooting the phone helps to connect once but when I leave that area it's the same **** all over again.
I already brought my phone back to the shop where they sent it to sony for "an update" but nothing changed.
The phone is running the stock android 4.04 ICS
Any help would be greatly apreciated

usually this is from the wifi router setting ... might need to change the channels(1,6,8)....ICS has showed issues on wifi refreshing and reconnecting.. first change the channel from auto to fixed value and then restart your phone and try it again.. see if this helps.. also do let me know if you are on rooted device with custom rom or stock rom...??

In a last desperate attempt to fix it I tried fixing the firmware through PC companion again, and I didn't have any problems today so I'm hoping for the best.

Either you have to do factory reset or rebooting the device might help
Or you can delete all used existing Wi-Fi connection for starting a new Wi-Fi connection

Youtube stops playing after a while

I have Xperia Mini with custom ICS rom, and I have this problem on every ICS rom I try:
When I play video on youtube, it just stops after a while, and its showing like its loading, but it wont load, no matter how much I wait it...
Anyone else who had this problem and solved it?
EDIT: This also hapens on an Xperia Mini Pro on my friend, also with custom ICS rom.
PLEASE, no responses like Have you tried this, have you tried that, I WANT someone who knows whats going on to help me.
Thanks
I had exactly the same problem on my mini. I tried using tubegod and it worked for some time then that too stopped. Check this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695249
Finally I went to Sony and tested it on their WiFi and it worked there. So it must be a problem in your ISP.

No, its not that, and it isn't happening just on my phone and only on the WI-FI I have home, it's probably something to do with the custom ICS roms

Do you mean to say that youtube works fine on stock ics? If it is not a problem with your wifi devices, then it must be a problem with the router. Just reset your router to default settings and re-configure it. Also, set the channel of wifi between 1-3.
Weird.... it really was my router... here, have my thanks
Actually wait... it happened again.. tried with channels 1, 2 and 3, still stops, any idea if I should set the frequency to be 20/40MHz or to leave it at 20MHz?

Isn't there any option of auto frequency? Because my router has that and it sends mixed signals.
Screw it, if it happens again I will call my ISP and ask them about it
