Right guys Ive looked around the forums and cant quite find the post that relates to:
Samsung Galaxy S3 WIFI tether no longer working after flashing custom JB roms.(I have also found some ICS roms dont work either)
I have tried various different ROMs and kernels to try and get a working JB rom with WIFI tethering and not yet found one. Tested CM10, CM9, PA, SlimROM, the list goes on! with kernels 3.0.31 CM and siyah kernel.
Has anyone successfully got JB working with WIFI tethering successfully broadcasting an SSID and connecting and using it!!??
Answer on a postcard @ please reply below

ok cool Ill give that a try and see what happens!
this is what u get when u play arnd with custom roms.........each custom rom is ****ed up in some way or another!
russeini if you have nothing to contribute then please kindly stfu.
At least some of the roms (Pa, Cm, ...) are not Samsung-based and currently have some stability issues with such features as wifi tethering.
Roms based on Samsung's official Jb work fine or at least should.

Hey. I got the same issues. All roms you listed i've tried also (incl AOKP) and while WI-FI did work, thethering/NFC didn't. Some said that you need to flash back sammy ICS stock then the AOSP/AOKP based rom and it will work (you cand fine info on the related threads). Didn't work that way either so I quit although I am in love with AOKP roms (RR AOKP, rootbox, official AOPK). They provide the true Android experience that Google intented, not the the sammy/crappy one.
All sammy ICS/JB custom roms worked fine (WIFI, BT, NFC, tethering, etc). I am now on Alliance ICS that is fully AOSP themed, very stable and smooth.Highly recommended.
Regards
**FIXED**
**FIXED!!!** HOORAY
Right coz Im nice this is what I did
1. Ran ODIN and FLASHED ROM I9300XXBLH3_I9300H3GBLH2_H3G from samfirmware.com
2. Hold Vol UP + Power + Home Key - wiped user data + cache
2. Ran ODIN and FLASHED Kernel CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5.tar from chainfire
3. Copied cm-9.1.0-i9300.zip and gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip to my SD card
4. Hold Vol UP + Power + Home Key and booted to CWM
5. Installed cm-9.1.0-i9300.zip and gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip and then wiped user data + cache
6. Rebooted!
And now I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 that is on cm9 with new JB look instead of stock look but more important!!! The WIFI Tethering is working!!!!!!! HOOOORAY

Do you know if this would work for a TMobile S3? I am still trying to find a confirmed working solution for WiFi tethering so I can tie my nexus 7 tablet to my unlimited data plan so I can make full use of it at work.

Hi,
I have searched and googled for a solution for my problem but could not find an answer, and if there is an answer I have yet to find it. This is my first thread and took time to search for an answer before writing it.
I have recently rooted and flashed my SGS2 with both CM9 nightly and Paranoid Android ROMS and it seems there is a common problem.
When I activate "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot", no device seem able to connect to the SGS2.
It shows "obtaining IP address" for a long time and suddenly the phone gives up connecting and drops the process.
I tried to connect a Galaxy Nexus(rooted/CM9) and a Samsung Tab2(rooted only)
both are not able to connect to the SGS2.
Is there a solution of some sort, are the ROMS at fault since I believe the PA ROM is also based on CM9? Is there a missing setting?
Does anyone have a similar problem?
is there an answer for my question ?
Mine connects perfectly fine, I think your problem would be the rom. I use the Hyperdroid rom which is based on original samsung rom with redpill kernel, I recommend it. My suggestion would be to try a different rom if not Hyperdroid.

I came across this before but wasn't an issue after switching to a different ROM so I would think that it would be a problem with the ROM you're using?

As I have suspected, I solved this issue by changing the ROM.
I guess only the i9100 CM9 Rom & Paranoid Android Rom (based on CM9?) have this issue.
I reverted back to Gingerbread by installing CM7 Rom and it worked.

Cm9 has no issues with tether, as I told and posted images to some other user few days back.
I use wifi tether for root device and alors is perfect
I am having this problem only with CM9 on SGS2
CM9 on GNex works perfect with me

Same issue!

Read in the official AOKP Official release [Build 3] thread that Galaxy S3 owners coming from Sammy JB leaks need to flash back to ICS ROM before flashing the AOKP to allow wifi tethering and nfc to work as shown below.

Read around before posting.
It will work if the right precautions are taken.
*if you hanvnt flashed a Samsung job leak and came directly from ICS or another cm ROM.
* if used a jb leak then flashed back to stock ICS to enable your NFC and wifi and then flashed this ROM.
My question is, I am currently on CM10 having previously on stock ICS 4.0.4. Do I still have to flash to ICS before entering AOKP?I do understand I have to wipe factory data, cache and dalvik as well. Any pro wish to help me out here? Thanks alot!

"Ya" means I have to reflash back to ICS or "Ya" means i dont have to and can carry on flashing AOKP? Sorry....confused noob here. Thanks for the reply anw!:laugh:
Anyone knows how to go about flashing from CM10 to AOKP? Do I really need to flash back to a stock ICS?
OK NVM. got it right the first time. For those wondering if you need to flash to ICS before going into AOKP, the answer is you DONT!. I was on CM10 and flashed right away after clearing my data factory reset, cache and dalvik cache. There are no problems whatsoever,so enjoy your AOKP ROM.Currently back on CM10 nightly build as I found that there are more issues in AOKP Build 3 than CM10, but love the vast customization you can get on AOKP though.
still not working
I flashed latest official ICS from samobile, tested tethering and worked fine. Back to RR AOKP build 3...not working.
U have to flash ics rom only if u have wifi issues thats all...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
wifi is fine
well...flashed different ICSs (custom), tethering is working fine. Flashing AOKP back, no go....its broken somehow.
thanks.
any estimate as to when wifi tethering issue would get fixed in aokp/aosp based ROMs?
Is there a work around to have a fully functional wifi tethering on aokp JB?

I had the same problem. Lot of functions are not working. But Still waiting for latest update. For now i'm using criskelo's rom. Much stable but not pure android experience :-/
hey guys,
i found a lot of theats for this topic, but no one can help me.
wi-fi will work and i find all wireless networks in my neighborhood, but if i connect, the signal strength decrease to 1 - 5%.
then android reconnect.
the signal strengh will great until i try to connect.
one solution i found descriped to install the stock rom and then update to cm. but if i try this i get the bootlook. i must factory reset the device. then all data will lost. and i get the same problem.
does anyone know what happens?
i tried 3 AOSP roms, cm9, cm10 and AOKP rom.
all 3 with android ui has the same problem. only the stock and samsung based roms works.
at the moment i use Android Revolution HD .
but i don´t like the samsung ui

Hi, Just follow the instruction in op and you wont have a problem. Not to lose anything just backup them! Simple!

You have to ODIN flash 4.0.4 stock rom before flashing CM10 to get rid of wi-fi issues. Thats all I know about that.
Did you lose your way to the cm10 discussion thread?

Solved! Didn't do full wipe before installing and somehow the kernel for CM10.1 was in the AOKP Omega ROM. Full wipe before flashing has solved this.
I've got a problem with wifi. After coming from stock ICS then OTA stock JB (UK Vodafone some months ago) I rooted and installed SuperNexus. Tried AOKP Omega. These worked well so thought I would try CM 10.1. Wifi stopped working so went back to the Omega ROM via recovery. Wifi still not working. I think I know what to do: reflash a stock Sammy ICS and then a custom ROM. But why would the wifi fail after many ROMS away from stock?
Just to explain more, it won't switch on using the toggle or the slider in settings. Everything else is OK.
Thanks in advance

May be if its a ported rom from any other device, then it may be rom related issue.. It would be good if you ask this question in respective ROM thread or read the OP for such bug, if it exists in the ROM
