Hi guys ! I recently installed the miui ROM and noticed that wireless is not working anymore. It finds the network , connects to it but it keeps saying obtaining IP address. First I tough that it was the ROM's fault but I installed the super nexus ROM(which I had before and had no problem with the WiFi) and I had the same problem.I tried it in different places and the problem persists.
Try a stock ics Rom first. I seem to remember this from the cm 10 forums.

IIRC it has to be ICS, something in that release makes the difference.
OK but.I'm not home right now(using network data) I will announce you tomorrow.

Hey there,
ever since I got my Atrix it showed some weird wifi behavior:
When I turn wifi on it says "obtaining IP address" although it doesn't actually do that.
As soon as I enter the wifi settings (the one where you choose which network to connect to) it connects to my remebered wifi.
This happened on every ROM (Cm 7, Blur...) and any combination of Radios and Kernels.

To be honest it happened to my Atrix when it was stock I've never understood why so I always blamed my wireless router
Any fixes out there?
Its really annoying.

I will try a new router soon, may as well be an hardware issue on the other side. Old one is 3 years old anyway

I am having the same problem with the Wifi. I don't know what causes this problem. Happens in both CM7 and Blur based Roms.

I've had the same issue with most rom's, but not with the Neutrino rom. Happened with all CM7 based roms before, however. Had to go in and click on "settings" before data worked.
reflash 36P radio, wipe cache/dalvik cache, and reboot. 36P seems to fix 99% of wifi issues. Also change your kernel to Faux's latest kernel as that helps too
My Atrix was stock tho...

I tried all combinations of Radios and Kernels, including faux 024 beta4, but it didn't help
edit:
well, on neutrino 2.1 with faux 024 and .30p it appears to be working all right. Will do some testing and report back
edit 2:
sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I'm afraid it might actually be related to my router
Okay,
bought a new router and it is working fine. Seems to be an issue with old routers. Although I cannot say in what form. Both routers use WPA2

It's a stock bug, once the devs get a good foothold in the ICS foundation, it's gonna be fixed, just a little patience for now, k?
yeah ok but why the nightmare rom and the fastamaze rom work flawlessly , the wifi that is... they're on ics too.?

Yeah but you see the difference is, most of the roms are stock based, therefore the bug is still there, nightmare and fastamaze on the other hand had to be built from the ground up when it came to hardware things like wifi, so until the guys have some source to work with or have the time to make their fixes from those roms workable on stock, it's gonna be a little glitchy.
i wonder why the phone can see all my neighbors wifi except mine it takes like 5minutes!?

Everybody has this issue, been puzzling for a while now, the home router is always the only one to he harder to be detected, gonna play with my moms phone later and check it out.

try changing your wireless security type on your router. WPA personal AES works well for me.
I mistakenly deleted my nandroid of my original stock shipped ics rom. When i try to go back to stock with one of the stock roms listed, any wifi is detected but will not connect. Goes through the authenticating and obtaining ip address and juststrats over. I can use energy rom and no problem.

I guess the glitch seems to be worse for you than normal, not much I can say unless someone pulls the files from energy and make a flashable for your phone.

I'm using NRG and the stock ICS radio, and my WiFi connects within a few seconds. Connects instantly, but takes a few seconds to acquire IP addresses & etc.
I think I have the same issue...
I just flashed CM10 onto my Transformer Prime & I'm experiencing the same issue that you describe; the device can see each & every WiFi network in the neighborhood except mine. Please forgive my ignorance but I am not familiar with your device; is it running Jellybean? Your post came up in a Google search that I did re my problem & your post is the closest to describing my problem. Sorry if I am barking up the wrong tree but I've been pulling my hair out trying to sort this one out so any clue would be a massive help to me at this stage.
Sorry to bother the community with something thats probably a waste of time. But I need a professionals help/advice. I just recently got the Amaze from a relative and it was on GB when I recieved it. The stock kernel worked just fine, I was able to connect to wifi perfectly with no hassles. But as soon as I recieved the OTA ICS it stopped working.
I did some research and found out the ICS kernels dont like certain settings on WiFi routers, but for the life of me I couldnt find what settings worked. So I decided to S-Off and Root. I installed fauxs kernel at the time which was v008 and everything worked again! Wifi was good but a little spotty at times. But as faux continues to develop awesome kernels the latest just does not work with my wifi router.
Does anyone have any clue on why the kernel does not like my router? I have a DLink, also anyone know how to combine faux kernels v008 to the latest v11. At least I could try to get the modules that worked in v008 and make a hybrid with v11 so I could get the best of both worlds.
Ive actually tried to combine the two kernels in many ways but keep coming up with "WiFi error" when trying to turn it on.
I am certain that some where someone has done this but ive tried Googling it and tried advance searching through XDA but cant find anything that actually helps me understand how to.
Thanks again!

Have your tried to setup WiFi Manually? You know type in the network id then password. It should work. That's how I got mine to work with faux latest build.. but I have a netgear router so that could also be a factor. But its worth a shot.

Did you copy the modules from version 8 to version 11? Or replace them ?

Actually No I have not tried that. Will do now. I will let you know what happens.
Edit:
So I tried to flash v11 and flashed it twice. Rebooted afterwards. Told the WiFi to forget my router. Did it manually and still the same thing.

Yes I have actually tried to copy the whole Modules folder from v008 to v11 and no go. I get "WiFi Error" once that happens I have to re install the whole rom again.
I even tried to do copy the Modules folder from v008 to Kozmiks kernel, just for sh*ts and giggles. Major fail. Same thing "WiFi Error."
Basically any kernel (even stock) but v008, the WiFi scans connects to my router. Go to test it out . Google page loads about 1/4th of the way and just chokes.

hey, I tried to help in your other thread.. the kind of security you are using on your router(there are so many options, some of which android just can't handle), the kind of router.. there are so many factors involved that may be the issue.
We can try to help you out, but besides switching modules from the version of the kernel that is working for you to the newest release, the "why" is beyond anyone but a kernel dev.. there's only so much the community can do.

Flash 8 thru 11 cuz 8 was messy n 9 was good but 10went back to stock module's,n 11 its the good one

SBD I did thank you though sir. Everyone thank you for your information as well. I'm just going to give up on it really. Ive tried many ways to configure my router. Ive reset the whole router more than 10 times back to Default settings and messed with the settings in every way possible.
The D-Link Dir-601 is old anyways perhaps I just need a new router. Just doest make sense on why one kernel works and One version of the phone works as well. Stock GB or Modded GB from NRG works. ICS just doenst like it for one reason or another.
I think ive managed to make a hyrbrid of V8 and V11 faux123 kernels. Combined moduels and the zImage from the Kernel folder as well. Some how the zImage made it bootable. Not sure if in V11 kernel makes the cpu1 go offline. but it does. Ill let ya'll know what happens

...why the wifi problem is sporadically happening in the JB ROMS?
I have tried most of the leaked and modded ROMS from early CM10 to Faryaabs Supernexus builds to the latest leaked firmware on 29th Aug.
However, whichever leak it was that first exhibited a wifi problem for the (unlucky) select few seems to have knackered my chances of connecting to wifi properly on all subsequent JB ROMS - even if wifi worked before. eg. Supernexus build 2 was all good on the wifi front, I only had probs with a few bugs and the camera lag. I flashed it again today though to find that it doesn't want to let me connect to my router.
This was the same with Omega v16, v16.1 and v17.
It seems to be reported that it is connected to router security settings and I know there is a 'fix' out there for it but the fix that I tried only made the wifi slightly better and was peppered with 'unable to establish secure connection' warnings when out and about.
Can anyone add to this or highlight an alternative solution? I have spent the last 30 or so evenings religiously reading the forums and if anything I'm a bit confused and bewildered
I'm on Omega v13 atm and cannot fault it (but I want Google Now) and I attach a snap of my current set up in case it has a bearing on where I'm going wrong.

No?
Well if it helps anyone I eventually found a work around.
After numerous different combinations of ROM, kernel and modem is finally got wifi working on a JB ROM
I was using Omega v13 and then I flashed the latest Siyah kernel ( http://db.tt/PgmwhO96).
After this I have been able to flash JB based ROMS over the top with no issues with wifi whatsoever

Try ROMOW Rom , Wifi with WPA2 encryption works fine since version 3
I have installed almost all ICS based roms and excepting Xperia ICS and HeHappy rom (yeah, the old one - stable.. I cant find it ), my wi-fi connection is really-really slow with these roms (sometimes it takes even one minute to connect a website, and I cant watch video on Youtube (even in low quality)
In all gingerbread and froyo roms - there is no problem with my wifi connection (its a high speed wifi).
Now, its just me or you guys have the same wifi problem? I dont use 3g to connect on web. Its a bug or what? its very weird...
Nope, never had that kind of a problem, been using ics roms for a long time now, have u tried reflashing with wiping everything?

No problem here, with any of the ROMs I've tried.
BTW, which hephappy ROM is the one you said you can't find?
used many ics roms and didnt have any issues
for hephappy's and many others go to clockworkmod.com
I've never seen any major difference in WiFi reception in the ROMs that I have used in the past. I seem to get slightly better reception than I used to in GB ROMs.
