[Q] Do AOSP roms have/need #0011 to make wifi work? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love my S3 except the wifi. The only way to use it without disconnects is to disable wifi save mode in *#0011 EVERY SINGLE REBOOT. I still think samsung should burn in hell for all eternity for this horrendous bug, but that's my opinion...
My question is, when using an AOSP rom, is there still a *#0011#? If not, will wifi go bonkers or will the save mode be always disabled?
Thanks a lot!

Axura 2.0.5 loss of data + 3g

For the 2nd time w/ axura i have lost data connection. I flashed this rom on friday and lost my connection on saturday, reflashed saturday then lost again on today. I've reflashed for the last time. I tried turning on/off airplane mode, changing network modes, rebooting. Nothing seems to work except reflashing. I really hate this because I love this rom, but if happens again I'm going to have to try a different another rom. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening? Has anyone else had this problem?
yes this has happen to me twice as well. Do you happen to have the wifi calling app installed?
I don't think so. Is that something that I would have to add. I didn't add anything extra or change the kernel. Are you only getting a day out of it before you lose the data? I can connect to wifi when I want.
Here is what happen to me. I was using Eugene's unofficial Odin froyo and everything was well except for the browser was laggy all the time. I decided to flash master's rom because it supported wifi calling and at home with wifi everything worked well, but when i left my house yesterday for work I could not get data or voice. The bars and the 3g icon were there but did not work. I flashed the rom again on the way to work and everything was good. Today we left to do some stuff and the same thing happen, I tried to go to into flight mode but it would not go back normal. In addition I installed the wifi calling app that lets you make calls over wifi and there is an option for preffered connection method, I had it set to wifi only instead of wifi and 3g. I changed that option and from there everything was working as it should. I also noticed that its set to Gsm instead of auto Gsm/wcdma and it wont let me change it. I don't know if that has to do with anything. So I am back at home right now and i don't get any service so i cant test to see if it has anything to do with wifi to 3g transfer.
I am really bummed because i like this rom alot, it has all the bells and whistles and its great on battery.
If this continues I think I am gonna odin back to stock then start over. It might also have something to do with my titanium back up.
Maybe it's a Georgia thing. lol. When I lose it the task bar only shows the bars, nothing else ( no 3g or edge). I'm with you though this is a great rom. If it happens again I may go back to stock and wait for the official froyo. Not really sure what else to do.
Is it okay to install the JI2 or JI6 modems on a Froyo ROM? If so, you could give it a try. Fortunately, people have created flashable .zip's for both.
This happened to me also. I lost my data and voice connection. Checked and saw that airplane mode was on and no matter how much I unchecked it, it still stayed on airplane mode. I reboot my phone, and reboot and reboot the **** out of it and now its been working just fine for more than a day now.
I don't know if it is ok to install those on a rom. My knowledge on that kind of stuff is very limited to say the least. This is my first rom. If anyone knows about this, your help would be greatly appreciated.

JI2 and JI6 are 2.2 capable.

Check the download section. Also I can't confirm but from what I remember the JI2 + JI6 both have the bug where switching radio modes (edge / 3g) will force you to do the flight mode reset.
I also had this issue because it always happens when I stream music while driving.
About not being able to get out of airplane mode. I don't know if it was just because I was tired, but every time I used the reboot feature instead of powering down, it would never get out of airplane mode. So, when I looked carefully, reboot, airplane mode, and another option was greyed out while power down wasn't. I found it strange, but whatever. I fully powered down and then turned it on. Airplane was now off.
I was on Axura 2.0.4 and because of this issue, I switched back to Obsidian. It could possibly be the modem, but at the time I didn't check it. Just report it to Master and hopefully the bug can be found.

Wifi out of range

I thought I saw a fix for this but I can't seem to find it.This happens to me regardless of what ICS rom I am on. Sometimes when I turn the screen on the wifi won't connect. It says it is out of range or it will just say that the connection is save. I have to turn the wifi off and the turn it back on and tell it scan. Then it will connect. I have tried changing the channel on the router and rebooting the router I connect to but that didn't help. Anybody know of a fix for this?
Unfortunately no...
I have the same condition when using ICS ...
It's very frustrating as you know ..
Since the chance of getting a fix is slim, considering jelly bean is the hot topic these days ...I've reverted to GB.
It's not perfect ....but at least the data and wifi are solid ....with great sound and call quality...
I'm staying rooted stock for a while.....g
I personally have not had any issues with wifi. I am running the ics Gubment Cheeze and have been since the first test build. Not once has my wifi not been there for me. Ics wifi has actualy been MORE stable than GB for me.
Just a silly question ... Do you both have your wifi set to keep wifi on during sleep?

Unfortunately for my my issue is there even on GB based roms. Not sure what is going on. Doesn't do it on my sister's skyrocket or her husband's iphone so I know the router is okay.
Wifi setting for me is "always on "...
As I try to take advantage of wifi hotspots ...when traveling..
On the ICS builds, I get notification of an open hotspot, but no auto connect.
But on stock GB ....I get auto connect every time.
I can't remember if ICS has the auto connect toggle...but GB does ....at least in the hotspot system app.
If ICS ran as well for me ...I'd keep it....as I think flappjaxxx ICS build is far better than stock ...but between the dreaded lag and connection issues, I bailed out for a bit ...or until I get these connection issues fixed..
Maybe I should move ???.....LOL

I am on flapjaxx and haven't had any issues with auto connecting to any of my 'known' wifi's (5 of them as i move from site to site). It detects the at&t hotspots but doesn't connect (i actually never tried to connect ) so don't know about connect automatically. Might test it out next time i am close to McD's.
It's an att specific fuction using the hotspot app ...
If it's a wifi hotspot registered on the ATT network, then it auto connects when in range.
But I believe the UCLF6 upgrade pulled this feature out...
There is a similar app on the market from ATT too duplicate this in ICS ...but it's unreliable, and a battery hog for Me...g
I will look into when i am off work. Think i disabled it myself one of these go arounds of flashing. (think i was tired of it popping saying that it was available ). Want to see if i can duplicate it for you.

thank you .....g
Well, looks like i didn't uninstall or freeze it, so imust have not been near one recently. Or just getting old and forgetting it. There's one done street from where i am. Will stop by on my way out and see what happens.
Sitting in McD'sdrive-thru as i type. At&t hotspot popped and connected automatically. Had to shut wifi off because it was super slow.( Lte in this area usually pulls 40-50mb downloads)

So your good ??
I love it when a plan comes together ....LOL ...g
I don't have the wifi hotspot installed. This is happening to me at home with my home wifi network.

Oh.....thats right...I'm confusing my threads....sorry....g
Yeah, sorry if i hijacked your thread there. Was looking at what Greg posted.
Have you tried reflashing only the modem? Flapjaxx has some stickied in the dev thread or you can pull one from a pure stock and put it in an existing flash zip. That's what I had to do. I had all kinds of problems coming from GB to ICS with the radio. Once I found one that worked I made a zip and keep it just in case. Haven't had to use it yet but you never know.

Neutrino ROM wifi issue

Hi all, I'm running Neutrino ROM 2.91 on my atrix 4g, and I often have a problem where my phone disconnects from wi-fi when it's been idle for a few minutes. In order to make it re-connect, I have to go to Settings > Wi-Fi, and then it automatically does at that point. From what I can tell, there aren't any settings that would cause the phone to do that. Additionally, I have my Mobile Network connection turned off (it's unlocked using T-Mobile so all I get is edge anyway). I'm not sure if it matters but I'm using Go Launcher EX. Any idea how I could fix that? I've tried a permissions fix but that doesn't appear to have done anything.
Also, this is a totally separate question, but when I back up my ROM using CWM, does each backup create a new, separate image? Or does it erase the older one and replace it with the newest iteration?
Thanks!
Edit: I should add wrt the original question - this is a different issue from the wifi "error" people seem to have been getting (I have not experienced that problem). Also, this happens on any network I'm connected to, so it's not just my home network.
Its a problem with all custom roms since forever on the atrix.
Only solution is to turn wifi sleep off or make a shortcut to wifi setting on home.
Also cwm makes seperate Inge files with different folder dates. You can't rename the dated folders or they will stop working

Thanks for the quick response. That's unfortunate, but I think I'll use that workaround.

Le max 2 WiFI Problem

Hello, anytime I flash to a new custom rom everything works fine but the wifi stops working, only way it will work is if I change the wifi mode settings and block N mode so i can only use B/G where as on stock rom every works fine on B/G/N..... any help?????
https://imgur.com/a/h0d6vI2
there you will see what happens always, it will connect sometimes but it doesn`t work its full speed and works very slow
the phone is cable of N mode wifi signal just for some reason doesn`t work that great but as soon as i disable N mode on router settings it works no problem
I am using custom rom Pixy OS I am reposting alot because I really hate stock rom because it lags and freeze a lot so really need to stay on custom rom but I need some sort of help to fix this issue.

Phone reboot everytime I switch on/off wifi connection ( AOSP ROM )

My phone wasnt usually hit that problem at the first time I used custom rom, but recently, on every Android 10 rom, including Havoc, Pixel Experience or Linenge OS, my phone keeps hitting a lot of errors, such as screen black when I switches on the display and I have to turn off and switch on screen again, or the Wifi issue I am facing right now. The first issue is kinda fixed, but the Wifi one is really frustrated. I did restore Jeff's Magical Backup, didnt work. Is there any solution? I will be appreciated
