[Q] Wifi issue on Xperia U with ICS - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi,
I have updated my ST25i with the ST25a firmware.
Also I excluded baseband while flashing.
The phone booted up fine and I have everything I need set up.
BUT , there is 1 problem.
My wifi stops sending/receiving data 2-3 mins after I enable it. After that until I disable/enable the wifi again it does not work.
This was not an issue when I was on GB.
Can someone please help me out here.
Has the baseband thing got anything to do with this or baseband is only for 3g and carrier network connection and should not be affecting wifi.
Thanks,
Robs

Did u try full wipe?

Yes I did..
that did not help..
finally, after trolling through a number of posts... I tried this
changed the mode of my router from b/g/n mixed to g only and changed the channel from "Auto" to "1" (after checking with wifi analyzer)
Now its working fine. I read somewhere that ICS devices sometimes have a problem when n mode is also enabled on the router.
Now I am at the office, but it worked well for the 30 mins when I tested it .. will test again when I go home..
the wifi at the office is connecting fine though .. so the mode and channel change was definitely the solution for my problem..
thanks for your reply
Cheers!!!

When wifi is connected some times internet does`t work, said conection problems, I turn off and again on and it`s working for some time, then again conection problems. Anyone have same problem???

Does your wireless internet connection have a password?
If so is the password entered correctly?

Maybe you could, let the phone forget the connection (delete it) and then try it again.

I tried, same problem.....
restart your wireless router or access point, see if that helps!
Maybe you have the wrong modem.
Take a look in the Modem Collection thread in the Android development section.
It often happens after installing custom ROMs

i think this is a kernel issue coz of the rom installed!
try reconfiguring ur router but after forgeting the network on ur phone and c how this works out!
My phone has had this problem since new. It stayed through stock firmwares KE1, KE2, KE7 and KF1, and has also occured through all Lite'ning Rom versions. I notice it's happening to users of a number of other roms, but isn't a widespread problem.
I have tried reconfiguring routers and forgetting the connection, but the problem persists. Very annoying, but not enough for me to send the phone back to the UK for repair (I'm in New Zealand!).
The problem is not resolved under the leaked 2.3.4 either, I've already heard of someone with the same problem on the 2.3.4 version of DarkyRom2.
Edit: Wifi is set to never sleep. Even cycling through this setting does not help.
those who have problem with WIFI try to reflash back your root application like CF-Root...then your WIFI should be working again...

Have you tired adding any other devices on your home network to ensure its not your modem ?
i can connect my notebook and my gf cellphone =(
Try wifi manager i think it will work on wolfs rom you can check with him or just try it, it's free an if you have a password on your wifi check that and your settings on your phone.
there is some wifi finders too try them on your phone to see if it can see your wifi.

problem solved!
just changed channel from 12 to 11 on router settings
***
type 192.168.1.1. on your browser
skip to advanced options and on channel choose 11
=)
That rom wolf just put out so give him a little time to tweak it. Is there something in his forum about it. He was just on his forum at 2:47am updating it so maybe reflash or wait. Also did you do a service menu check on phone to see if all is ok ?
Adhoc Wifi Connection problem.....

Hope somebody there will be able to help me.

[Q] Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 + Wifi

Hi,
I'm posting my question here, since i can't reply on the original thread.
Currently i'm running Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 (custom) on my HTC Hero.
First off all, great job and thank you so much for keeping the hero alive!!
Tried a lot of different roms and this one leaves the others far behind!
I do however have a small problem with wifi. The device is not "finding" my home network. It does find other networks in the area, and i have been able to log in on a friends network. But it doesnt find this particular one. Other devices (laptops, desktops) are able to connect to it, so i dont think that the issue lies with the network.
Previously i was running elelinux FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock (special edition) and did not have this problem.
Is there anyone with the same/a similar problem? Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this?
Dont know if it matters, its an assus N-router.
Thank you
Have you tried to click "Add a wifi network" in the (empty) list of available networks to define SSID and security setting manually?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes i tried that allready, it still tells me it is not in range.
Dont know if it helps the wireless is 2.4 and 5 GHz
Just put Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 custom v2 on my phone and still have the same problem?
Any guesses?
Check if u can detect other wifi networks wit ur fone if not try a different rom,since u want something as stable as else's try herodeck...
If it does detect other wifi networks,check if ur home wifi is hidden or reset it...

I have the same ROM and I don't have any problems with wi-fi. Maybe there is an issue with the 802.11n compatibility. Are you able to force the AP into b/g mode?
Same Problem
i had the same problem so adjusted router to use B/G mode only and works fine now
maybe your WiFi is on one of the odd japanes channels 52 or so, make sure your choose something between channel1 and 11 in the 2,4Ghz Band
Thank you for all the replies!!
It got fixed!!
Didnt have to change from N to b/g
But tried Taknil's solution and changed channel from auto to somewhere between 1 and 11 in the 2.4 Ghz band (router went up to 13)
Works like a charm!!
Thank you all!
It happened to me to.
I've to give up the mod for now.

Problems with wifi on ICS official and ROM Cook (4.0.3 and 4.0.4)

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum. I have something to ask.
Currently I am having an Xperia Ray. Rooted. Boot loader unlocked. Running Ray Onium v7 GB with Aire Kernel v7. Everything runs perfectly without a glitch.
However when I update to ICS, both stock ROM or Cook ROM (Ray Onium v6 ICS, JJ ROM 2.5 and team Kang ROM), I find that my wifi is not useable.
I'm sitting about 1m away from the router, the signal is excellent but I can't browse the internet or go to the market.
I have tried both with 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. However when I connect to an open network, everything is fine. I'm using WPA2 encryption for my Linksys 54g router.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
What kernel did u use

I'm using XRay 6.2.5, it doesn't work. I also try Aire, Official Kernel, but my ray still cant access the internet.However when using GB, everything's fine.

Try to update from SEUS

I've tried with SEUS, no luck.
The point here is that it gets connected very fast, however there is no internet. On GB everything is perfect.
I have the same issue, everything perfectly on GB.

I've been having similar problems with my wifi since updating to ICS. My problems are a little different though. WPA2 network here, the phone can see the network fine and it connects quickly, I can browse and stuff just fine, but every so often the network just /disconnects/. Usually it'll reconnect a few seconds later, but sometimes I have to open the wifi settings screen before it'll reconnect, and sometimes it doesn't reconnect at all. When it doesn't reconnect at all, the settings screen says my network is either out of range (it picks it up the moment I hit Scan) or had an "authentication problem", and I have to manually connect to the network.
Kinda weird and very frustrating, because sometimes I'm connected for hours without a problem, and sometimes I'm getting disconnected every few minutes.
When SE released their alpha and beta ICS roms, the wifi either didn't see my home network, or it saw my home network but couldn't connect, instead just infinitely cycling through "Connecting, Disconnected, Not In Range, Connecting"
Same problem happens regardless of what kernel or ROM I use, it happens in CM9, AOKP and every other ICS ROM I've tried. :/
A similar problem it seems...
When I want to download an app via Google Play simply it doesn't start. I touch back button and try to download it again and voila! The same fast wireless..
But it simply does not start at first try. Not only Google Play downloads but also all other internet using applications do that strange behaviour.
WPA2 and 801n

I have two Rays at home... one on GB and one on ICS.... the ICS one has the same problems, I think switching your wifi router to WEP seems to help and so is changing to B from N.. but then you lose higher speeds and security... but that does seem to help. On the other hand the GB ray has no problems whatsoever....
Hope this helps someone figure out a solution

Your welcome. I just also flashed official Nordic 4.0.4 from here... And my router has something called " protected mode", that is says helps for that- if WiFi signals are too many around. Try installing WiFi analytics from google play... It's free-
use a free WiFi channel.
Turn on such protected mode if you can
I also activated something called "intellistream" that prioritizes streaming in WiFi.
So far, it's going well. This way I kept the 801n and WPA security.
Before this, I was sitting 7-8 steps away from the router and kept dropping connections.
Hope it helps.... No expert here.... Joined the forum for the same reason...
tomorrow after work ill test as much scenarios as possible. it cant be router related since i have the same issue with 7 different routers. 0 problems with GB, always the same issue on ICS.
connected solid and sound, no dropping in signal, but no internet flow whatsoever.. this is the only thing that keeps me on GB -.-
Any progress?
Yeah same problem with me.
There's something wrong with ICS Rom, that needs to be fixed
Replace file
Unzip and copy this file in /system/bin (replace with original). This should fix the wifi connection. You will need root for this.
So far, so good

wifi problem - says " turning wifi on" endlessly

Just bought an S2 off a friend that's been rooted.
Running ICS 4.0.3 XWLPG kernal with the wanamlite V.12.0 Rom
My data internet works absolutely fine, but im having trouble configuring the WIFI. It's taken over 3 hours and ive given up searching the forum.
When I connect to Wifi via the settings - I get the screen saying "turning wifi on". It doesnt do nothing, just constantly stays like that.
If i go into the advance settings i have...
network notifications checked.
wifi frequency band set to auto - ive changed this but doesnt do anything.
I have a mac address.
and for IP it says unavailable.
Somebody please help me orelse i might end up losing my hair very soon.
Thank you.
Any ideas? Anyone?
wifi direct
Im having another problem with wifi but its with resurrection rom 2.3. Donno how to configure wifi direct or what explorer to use to send via wifi. All i can find is a tick box that says wifi direct.
I'd flash a stock ROM. Then you'll see if its a problem with your current rom or not.
Sent from my next
Yeah, I've had same kind of problems with a stock ROM. Now the WiFi has been working just fine but sometimes I had the same problem as you do. No idea why it does it.
I have a not rooted galaxy, and I have the same prob. It mostly happens when you turn on/off wifi directly from settings instead of going to settings --> connections --> wifi etc. (ics feature)
I solve the problem with rebooting my phone...
Only takes 30 seconds.
Hope i helped!

Hi, Thanks for your reply.
Can I ask what you mean by a stock ROM - do you mean one that is not insecure rather the original?
I fix it by turning airplane mode on and off. But it doesn't occur after I changed to a custom rom

Dial *#*#526#*#* wait for some
time until you see ‘process was
successful’ on the screen. You
can repeat this whenever you see
this problem.
If that does not work, Search Google playstore for an app called FIX MY WIFI. It's a paid app but
I've tried it in the past and it worked after reboot.
Good luck
Hello everyone i faced the same problem and solved it by an app called wifi fix which is made by amid M Geha :good:
