[Q] CM 10 wifi issues - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I recently purchased a SGS3 and ran the stock ROM for approx 30mins before flashing a CM10 nightly build (i9300 intl). Because of this I am unable to verify if the wifi was working on my home router prior to flashing a custom ROM.
At work I am able to connect to our wifi connection without problemson 2.4ghz or 5ghz. At home I've got a D-Link DSL-G604T wireless router which I am unable to connect to. I've tried changing the wifi channel, password, removing protection, factory reset and installed a seperate CM10 nightly build without any help.
When trying to connect to the WIFI connection I get the following output in adb logcat.
Anyone have any ideas what may be stopping me from connecting ot my wifi?

You could try install the latest Siyah kernel, which contains the updated Wifi driver which could help. I used to have my Wifi absolutely fine with my ICS stock ROM. When I upgraded to CM 10 Jelly Bean, my Wifi works but very unstable. Two solutions that worked for me. 1- Use Wifi fixer app 2- Upgrade Siyah 1.7b4 kernel.
And now I can enjoy CM10 and AOKP at the same time without Wifi problems
Hope this helps

this is also happening on the verizon cm10 builds to for the gs3.

[Q] Solution for wireless issues?

I have been having Wifi connectivity issues for some time. Basically, I can use wifi about 4 times before it just stops working.
I get the message "Error" in the settings. The message was "Unable to start Wifi" in Android 2.1.
I've tried SEUS, I'm tried resets, wipes, re-installs, and nothing. I'm not an expert when it comes to seriously technical phone settings but here's some info. I think that maybe my settings are corrupted. From the service menu:
Wifi State: Unknown
Network State: Unknown
Supplicant: Uninitialized
RSSI:-200
Hidden SSID: False
IPaddr: 0.0.0.0
MAC addr: (Blank)
Network ID: -1
Link SPeed: -1 mbps
Scan Results: (blank)
After running ping test
PingIPAddr: Fail - not reachable
Ping Hostname: Fail
HTTP client: Fail: IOException
Also, when I try to go into "Wifi API" and hit "getConfiguredNetworks" nothing happens.
have u rooted ur phone or installed any custom Roms ??
No I haven't, its stock except that it is unlocked. Maybe rooting it will let me take control of things such as these?

CM7 Alpha 2.1 on TouchPad will no longer boot

I've had CM7 running on my TouchPad for quite some time now, and all of sudden, after rebooting it, it will no longer complete the boot process. Keeps hanging on the boot animation.
I rebooted to recovery and wiped system, cache and dalvik and reflashed CM7 and Google Apps. Keeps hanging at the exact same place:
There is no more logging entries generated after this:

Obviously, wiping data will resolve the issue, but I would rather not do that (although I do have all of my apps backed up via TB)

Yep, you need to do a full wipe and reflash. Happened to me and its annoying, but im trying to minimize the number of apps i install and am currently staying away from restoring apps from TiBu. Havnt had a problem for the last few days...

Ice Cream Sandwich and Ad Hoc Wireless Networks

(The procedures can be found at post #4)
It is apparent that prior to ICS, ad hoc wireless networks are not supported: h t t p:// code. google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82
Does anyone know if ad hoc wireless is supported under ICS? I can't seem to find ad hoc wireless networks on my U9GT 2 tablet, running Android 4.0.3.
Anyone???
Saw this useful thread: http://szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/
Source Code to wpa_supplicant (ICS): https://github.com/jhonxie/android_external_wpa_supplicant_6/tree/ics
But I still can't get it to work. HELP!
After ploughing through the materials on the Internet, I finally got it to work! I believe this method works for any Android device, of any Android version. However, this method is tedious as I couldn't get the system to accept the adhoc configuration in wpa_supplicant.conf.
Here are the steps:
Ignore the first character of my example command-lines as it represents the prompt (i.e. $, #, >)
Run Terminal Emulator and elevate to root privileges / be the superuser. Then run "wpa_cli", the software interface to the wireless stack:
Code:
$ su
# wpa_cli
>
Now that you're in wpa_cli, the first command is to add a network:
Code:
> add_network
5
Take note as the system would output a number. That is the number that represents your adhoc network. In my example, the number is "5".
Next, type the following commands to set (configure) network "5" (be sure to fill in the respective SSID and BSSID):
Code:
> set_network 5 mode 1
OK
> set_network 5 ssid "MyAdHocWiFi"
OK
> set_network 5 bssid aa:BB:cc:DD:ee:FF
OK
> set_network 5 key_mgmt NONE
OK
> enable_network 5
OK
> ap_scan 2
OK
> select_network 5
OK
If you don't know your bssid, run WiFi Analyzer from the Android Market. The system would reply an "OK" after every successfully executed command. If you get a "FAIL", check your syntax - is the an extra / missing quote?
At this point, you should see a bunch of system messages. There might be some error messages but that might not mean the adhoc wireless connection had failed. Check if your device has successfully obtained an IP configuration:
Code:
# busybox ifconfig
Now, you might think this is a hell lot of work... You're right! It should be able to read the configuration file (e.g. /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf) and connect automatically, but I couldn't get wpa_supplicant to accept my adhoc configuration! I'll update this thread when I got it sorted out.
Finally, I am able to tether to my Nokia phone with JoikuSpot!

Do you have something that would work with wpa_supplicant v0.8.x?
The wpa_cli command is failing because it cannot be found. Should it be in my system/bin folder? I've since installed busybox and would love to connect to my adhoc network. Suggestions?
wendal has kindly compiled the wpa_supplicant that works with adhoc wireless networks (IBSS). For more info, refer here: http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/286...licant-source/page__view__findpost__p__304667
Has anyone got that file to work? I always try it but my wireless stays frozen. I've changed the ownership and permissions and still nothing!!!

It didn't work for me on my ICS kindle-fire.. According to the log it seems like it doesn't recognize the kindle-fire wireless interface. I am wondering at this point whether each device uses its own wpa_supplicant that works with its own driver or what else. I am going to find out more about it and see if I can get my own wpa_supplicant patched with IBSS and compiled.

Not working on hidden WPA2 AES Wigi
Hi there, I have a rooted stock ICS Google Nexus. On my workplace, the wifi has hidden SSID with WPA2-Personal and AES. When I try to connect with it, nothing happens. It's does not save on the wpa_supplicant.conf also.
I've tried the compiled wpa_supplicant mentioned on the post, but the same thing happens... I've even tried to edit manually the wpa_supplicant.conf but the wifi crashed after that (thankfully I had a backup).
So any ideas on how to get this thing connected? On my later Atrix with stock 2.3.6 it connected just fine...
Thanks.
Hello i tried many adhoc fixes and now i can connect to adhoc network but after 1-2 minutes connection get lost. Does anybody know how to solve the problem?
i use Htc Sensation with ICS
I have ICS CM9 on my HTC legend and can't recognise the wirelss network at my office. At home no problem.
If I launch wpa_cli I get:
Using interface 'tiwlan0'
Inteactive mode
>
<2>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS
and the last line continues to loop.
Is it correct? What should I do then and to let this wi fi network accessible?
Try this
Hello,
I just got a new Idolian tablet and couldn't connect to my hidden home SSID. I just thought I'd try something really quick and it worked..! I added network in manually but it said not in range. Try temporarily turning the SSID broadcast back on then connect. Mine was successful. I then turned off the SSID broadcast on the router and the wifi off and on again on the tablet and it connected perfectly.
I've been reading this forums for almost a year but this is my 1st post so hopefully it will help someone out as these forums have for me.
Has anyone got it to connect and not get the obtaining IP address loop? My device finds the Ad Hoc network for my cars ODB2 wifi adapter but will never connect.
Good day friends, I really need to enable ad-hoc on my HTC One X, to use my Brookstone Rover, more'm not getting my wpa_supplicant is v8.
I have a doubt, this command set_network 5 bssid aa: BB: CC: DD: ee: FF, this is the bssid mac network card from my smartphone or mac card that will connect my smartphone?
thank you very much
Edit wpa_supplicant.conf instead of wpa_supplicant
I changed data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf instead of /system/bin/wpa_supplicant.
Step1:First i scanned my adhoc network using Wifi Manager. It shows adhoc networks. I ignored it's warning and tried to connect. It'll fail.No problem! We now have the adhoc network listed in wpa_supplicant.conf.
Note: you can skip this step if you know how to edit wpa_supplicant.conf manually or if your device already lists adhoc networks on scanning.
Step2: You'll need to root your device if you're doing this through your device itself. If you use adb you may not need to root your device.(I had root access by default through adb. So rooting the device wasn't necessary for me). If you're using pc(windows or linux), i recommend Android Commander. If you're doing this from device itself, use some Root Explorer and Terminal Emulator.
Pull and/or edit data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf. Add the following line
ap_scan=2
Find line like
network={
ssid="your adhoc name"
bssid=*some value*
.
.
}
Delete bssid line.
Add/Change the following
scan_ssid=1
priority=1
mode=1
Push back/save the modified file.
chown ownership back to system.wifi. Type the following in adb/Terminal Emulator
#chown system.wifi data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Ok, done! Now you can turn on wifi and if the specified adhoc network is nearby, your device'll automatically connect to it. Don't scan for new networks. If you do, adhoc support will be lost and you'll have to start over again!
Advantage: Safer than modifying system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant binary. Saves you the trouble of compiling modified wpa_supplicant or finding a compiled one for your platform.
Drawback: This is just a temporary solution.You'll have to repeat this process for every new adhoc network as it doesn't enable adhoc forever. It is good for connecting to your home network or other known networks, but if you want to connect to any adhoc network you scan,then this is not your method. Because, wpa_supplicant.conf will be overwritten every time you scan a new network.

Wi-fi on and off problem

Hello,
Last 2-3 weeks a have this strange problem with my phone, when i turn on wifi, the box continiiusly loops ticking and unticking and goes on off without stopping.
I thought initially that this was a problem of the specific rom for Motorola Milestone. But when i installed the initial sbf of the phone, nothing changed :-(
Anyine experienced in the past this issue? Unfortunately this is a reason to change phone and i dont want to buy a new one now...
Thanks in advance

Have you tried installing a new rom?
WiFi - On/Off
I suspect it has something to do with the ROM/HW interface. I would do a complete wipe of your phone back to stock factory settings.
Does it do the same thing on the factory wipe?
Is your problem confined to 1 hotspot or WiFi device or all devices to attempt to attach to?
If the problem continues on the factory ROM and factory settings I would suspect a hardware issue.
ALSO you could try upgrading/downgrading your MODEM to a different one and see if that helps.
Thanks, i really appreicate it guys!
i installed different roms, wiped everything, went back to stock and nothing...
Wifi goes on and off without showing what networks are available.

I had the same Problem with a few ROM's but now I Found CoreDruid for my HTC Desire HD and that problem is history.
When it happens, just reboot!

Have you tried switching ON the OFFLINE mode (Airplane mode) and then switch off OFFLINE mode?? It helps in my Photon...
Further you can try turning WiFi Hotspot On and then Off... Heard that this method also solves WiFi issues in some MoPhos....
Third solution for MoPho, I am not sure it will work for MileStone or not.... goto https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/77706
Please provide some log files, when you turn of wifi: logcat and dmesg. You can get it using app like Quick System Info, or get them using adb.
Try doing this.
Go to Advanced wifi settings and uncheck "Use static IP" .
Hello,
attached is the logcat.
Thanks everyone for spending time in my problem!

ioctl system calls fail with different errors. Ioctl is used for controlling the device, WiFi chip in your case. Errors mean that either driver is not ok but if you have original rom it shouldn't be the case, or device itself is not operational.
So probably your have a hardware failure.
You can also try with some unencrypted wifi, maybe the problem occurs in WPA mode only.
ok thanks
first time i heard a broken wifi, but it seems that is time for a new phone!

[Q] Connecting SGA with hostapd wifi on Ubuntu 11.04

Dear All,
I am on Ubuntu 11.04, and it has been quite sometime to figure out how to make an access point out of it. I had BCM4312 card which didn't allow me to install the b43 firmware, and finally figured that b43-lpphy (low power card, has a separate firmware!!) was the firmware that I had to use. Wifi worked! But now when I connect it to my phone(Samsung Galaxy Ace s5830, right now on CM9 rom) I get the following error message, and the internet connection - though is getting connected is very patchy!
Station 00:07:ab:fd:33:2d trying to deauthenticate, but it is not authenticated.

When I connect the same wifi with other laptops/ Samsung Galaxy S, the issue doesn't seem to be there and browsing is flawless.The above happens over and over again... and my phone keeps shouting out this because of proxyDroid connecting and disconnecting, and the browsing part becomes stressful. I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this
Thanks
Sudharshan
