I recently installed a new Custom Rom "TheBrainsRom" on the SSpeed Kernel v3 on my Xperia U. All was fine until i tried to turn on the Tethering. It shows that it is tethering but then it doesnt broadcast. At times, the Status Bar also gives a force close issue.
My question is that is there anyone else going through this problem? Is there anyone who could tell me if this is usually to do with the Kernel or ROM handles such functions independently. What could i do in order to avoid having to reflash the device.
A Quick Update to bump this thread as well as to add some info.
I re-flashed the kernel and it dint help. The issue still persists. I guess it is something to do with the ROM? Any info that would lead to a solution would be highly appreciated.

Hi,
I am currently using pfonck's 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 *FINAL* ROM (& have been for over the past month or so). Prior to this I was using the stock SE build prior to the ....C.O firmware in pfonck's rom. In both of these SE roms I have had no WiFi problems whatsoever.
After trying many roms from the forum, and trying to connect to my home WiFi after adding it on my phone they all said: Authenticating, then Connecting, then Disconnected. My router WiFi setup is: WPA2/PSK Non-Broadcast SSID where the router only allows connections to MAC addresses it has been setup to store, recognise, then allow. I have also been explicitly told I must not change the router settings at all at home. So with these settings it was always fine with the stock SE rom, and then currently with pfonck's 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 *FINAL* ROM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Request: Please could you make an optional cwm-flashable .zip which replaces the WiFi .libs and/or (whatever else is necessary) with the stock SE WiFi .libs (so just all of the WiFi part of the rom is back to the stock SE WiFi) ??
Many thanks
Kind regards
i got the same problem, stock SE wifi works, but after upgrading to any ROM wifi just has same error. even worse, it crashes the whole wifi network at home =S
but luckily i got large data allowance from my phone carrier, so dont really care bout wifi, and the benefits of upgrading ROM, far outweighs wifi =)
If it was really that simple to use the stock Wi-Fi libs the devs would have done it, do you think they enjoy solving problems with custom libs? And how many times have you started a thread asking the same thing?
EDIT: Its funny really. I don't seem to have any wi-fi problems with gingerdx v10. and i can change my router settings.

You may be able to change yours, but I'm not allowed to change the settings at home. That's the only reason I am asking as I would still like to use the amazing roms that the devs here make - they are awesome!
Please can a dev help me by having a go at this (see post #1). Thanks
Kind regards...

What kind of security is your wifi modem is having? is it wps smthng lk that? Did you tried with different wifi hotspots?
it doesnt have any security, i disable it
The thing is that it doesn even recognize that there is a wifi signal, it just turn off automatically before without detecting any wifi signal, i tried at work and the same thing happened
(sorry if i misspelled a lot of words jejeje)
try to flash another ROM and see if it works...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA premium app
i restored the backup i made with cwm and everything works fine now (touch x-power rom), and if i reinstall check rom the wifi goes out again, it seems it deletes something that leaves me with no wifi mac adress (i searched in about the phone, turning on and of wifi and every time it said not available)
Bizarre...
im getting the same thing, did anyone find a solution?
had this same exact issue.. it is a hardware problem.. so changing rom, kernel or fw wont help you at all... only solution is going to samsung service center.. my problem was solved in 3 days..so many s2 users have this problem..
take a look at these threads...

There are a lot of problems with KK5 and wifi. If you update Busybox it borks it completely. I can't connect to my 5Ghz home wifi but the 2.4 Ghz works fine. I also can't connect to some wifi that uses WEP. All works fine with previous builds. I have seen threads that suggest replacing the wpa_suplicant file from Android 2.3.5 fixes the problem.
Hi there,
Installed FeraLabs Rom today, clean. Problem is I cant connect with my wlan / wifi router. Worked before the Rom...where could be the problem?
Thanks in advance!
I explain a bit more: There is no error massage or anything, it just wont connect. Do I have to change anything before using w-lan? Please help guys!
my "lockscreen" is also gone...how can I lock the display now??
Well, installed ***FeraLab*** v10 ~Adrenaline~, numberlock is back, but I still cant connect Wifi / W-Lan...it seems to work for others, am I missing something? Do I have to install something, make some configurations?? Come on guys, I cant post in the FeraLab Thread, so please help me here. The Phone is more or less useless without wlan...
Should be simple enough- install either the wifi.zip fix for your kernel or rom.If he says you dont need it(in his rom thread),then try the kernel wifi fix,as I needed that to get wifi working when I was running DKv06.
Download/stick it in sdcard and flash it via xrecovery.

Bump... Anyone???

Hi,
After rooting and installing a custom rom and kernel, on my desire x, I found that my WiFi stops working.
It shows connected, but I cannot get any data transferred. The sync icon is shown in the status bar.
I have tried replacing the kernel and restored a nandroid backup of the stock rom, but still, these issue persists.
The only thing that helps when the issue occurs is turning off WiFi and then turning it on again.
I hope someone can help me fixing this problem.
Thanks Robert
