I recently installed a Custom Rom named "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. I re-flashed the kernel with the Supercharger Kernel but it still dint help
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 does the ROM handles such functions independently. What could i do in order to avoid having to reflash the device.
Bump... Anyone???

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...

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.

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.

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.
Hey guys,
I have leaked JB 4.1 on my SGS2, and I flashed Dorimanx kernel over it.
Everything is pretty much ok except the fact that usb tethering, wifi portable hotspot and bluetooth tethering are not working!
Wifi portable hotspot turns on and two seconds after it turns off automatically. It's same with the USB tethering. Bluetooth tethering stays on but it shows bluetooth error.
I tried with tethering apps from the market - nothing reallly works, evene the apps that use root priviliges.
Please, help!

And all this started happening when you flashed dorimanx................................?
To be honest, I haven't tried tethering while I had leaked stock JB.
Maybe I should flash over some other kernel and see if the tethering is working?
err....yeap, you should
could also re flah the whole thing.

I experienced this issue (No WIFI and Bluetooth) when using Jeboo on Biftor's rom. I flashed Siyah and currently I have it working with BT and USB but Wifi doesn't work.
Try a different kernel and see if you get better results!
I am experiencing the same problem.
What I have done:
Rooted SGS2 GTI9100 using Method 1 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746794
Backed up SMS & Call History
Installed Space & Time 2.2 ROM
When asked to Select Modem & Kernel - I selected the top Dorimanx one from options (I didn't know which to select)
Restored SMS & Call history
Had to re-root by running cwm-touch-6.0.x.x-i9100.zip again to enable Titanium Backup, SuperSU, etc.
WiFi works, mobile data works but I cannot get tethering to work. It disables after about 2 seconds as shomey describes.
Can anyone see what may be wrong? Could it be to do with the modem & kernel selection? How do I check which modem & kernel I need?
Hope you can help. Thank you.
Matthew
