Just got a GSIII today and have been trying some JB ROMS out, but so far I have not been able to get WiFi working at all with any of them.
I have tried Vanilla RootBox, LiquidJB and SuperNexus but whilst I can see my WiFi AP on all of them and can enter my password all I get is the "Connecting..." message for ages before it gives up?
WiFi works fine on the stock ROM, and there are no obvious settings on the WiFi router itself which would be causing this.
Any advice appreciated!

Thanks, I just spotted a couple of threads mentioning this.
Couple of questions, when you say flash back to stock does that mean through CWM Recovery, or some other way? Does it have to be a straight flash to a downloaded stock ROM or am I able to just "restore" the backup I made?
Thanks again!
Flash back using odin....i can provide a link if you like

Cool, so I've got Odin (I believe that's what I used to root the phone?) Is there a specific .zip I need to flash back to? Also do I need to boot back in to the stock ROM or just stick JB straight back on again?
Please note, when you have flashed back to ics you need to then set up phone and connect to Wi-Fi once, then proceed to flash jb

Excellent. Do I need to download a specific "Stock ICS" ROM to do this? Any pointers as to where I can find this?
Thanks for the help people
I seem to remember I just flashed an old wannamlite Rom in cwm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
These ones. (4.0.4)
Or try http://fus.nanzen.se/
This is if you want to find the original firmware your phone came with.
I'm still not having much luck with this.
Should I be wiping before I flash back to ICS, and then again before back to JB?
I think a wipe before flashing ICS is enough.
But watch the youtube video on the first post on :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
It pretty much explains every part of returning to stock ICS. From there it is just reflashing JB with odin and wifi should work.
Hmm, still not having much luck. I've installed my JB ROM, wiped, gone back to stock ICS using the ROM from the link provided above in ODNI.
But now when I try to reboot in to recovery to re-flash my JB ROM I seem to get a different version of recovery from what I had before and it fails during verification when I try to flash the .zip.
Any advice welcome!
I'm having the same problem here.
BUT, even flasing stock ICS and flasing a custom JB ROM after that does not solve the issue.
Here is what I did in what order. Maybe I'm missing some essential point or whatever:
- full wipe in cwm recovery
- flash stock ICS via Odin (I9300XXBLH3_I9300DBTBLH4_I9300XXLH1_HOME.tar)
- reboot and test WiFi. WiFi works fine! Firmware is 4.0.4
- flash CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 to gain root again
- boot into CWM Recovery, format /preload (to get rid of apps installing themselves on boot)
- another full wipe
- install zip from sdcard (tried AOKP JB build 4 for i9300 and ParanoidAndroid v2.22)
same old ****! WiFi not conecting!
I would apeciatie any help to solve this problem for me. Aparently reverting to stock ICS has solved this for others but I dont get what I'm donig wrong her...
try some router side adjustments

you need to root again flashing 'CF-Root' via Odin to get CWM recovery. I guess.

that does not seem right. My phone connects just fine with any ICS based ROM. It even conects with JB ROM Android Revolution HD.

Okay so I Re-rooted with CF-Root through ODIN and have got CWM recover back, but now when I re-flash JB I still get the same problems, try to connect to WiFi and it just sits there saying "Connecting..." and then gives up!
Is there a specific set of steps for doing this? I connected to WiFi whilst back on the Stock ICS ROM (LG8) and that worked fine, I have tried various combinations of wiping/not wiping at each stage in between JB->ICS->JB with no luck. Do I need a particular Stock ROM to go back to, do I have to use a specific version of ODIN/CF-Root/CWM?
Very annoying as everything else about the Jelly Bean ROMS seems perfect!
Has anyone worked out why JB ROMS are doing this?
I have the same problem
It seems to work for some people to go back to ICS and then flash JB ROMs, but somehow it does not work for us..
I'm trying an old stock ICS now and the will flash cm10. lets see if that helps
I've downloaded a selection of stock and custom ICS roms to try with the process, hopefully something will do the trick!
Also I don't think changing router settings can have anything to do with this as it works fine for every other device I own, including a different handset running JB. However out of curiosity I spent last night playing with all the settings to see if anything would help. It didn't
U said u flashed back to stock.... In that case u lost cwm then ur gonna hafto re flash cwm

Hey,
I've had a really big problem with Siyah Kernel V3.1 rc6, i flashed it not long ago because i was going to go from CheckROM v6 to HyDrOG3N 18/04, but i didn't get hard bricked by the Kernel as people have been experiencing, I got a Soft Brick, so I went back into CWM and i couldn't flash anything, anything i tried to flash anything it would give me the error "failed ro:getprop I9100" or something along the lines of that, so i started messing around, hoping for anything to work, and creating a second ROM through the dualboot settings and deleting it somehow worked, but now I can't connect to my service provider (T-Mobile UK) regardless of what i have flashed on my phone, this is a really big problem for me as this phone is my day to day phone and i dont have a backup at all, if anybody has any suggestions at all as to what it could be and how I can combat this as soon as possible, I would be really appreciative
TIA Guys

Try flash stock rom(ics) with odin with full wipe or try formatting system,maybe deleting your dualboot roms and flash rom from cwm.

You could purchase mobile odin off the market, and data limit allowing, download the cm9 ressurection edition (ie cm9 flashable through odin). that would be my best advice
^ cause you wouldn't need a pc then

I have a i9100M that I got recently.
I've been flashing a few different ICS ROMS to try with 100% success and the phone has been awesome.
Then I decided it was getting annoying installing and setting up all of my applications every time I switched to a new ROM so I figured I'd try using the Titanium Backup "All System Data and User Apps" backup and restore.
So I did that, after the restore was done (I went from CM9 to Resurrection Remix 2.5) Everything was working fine for a few minutes but when I was going through some of the RR2.5 settings, the phone suddenly reboot and is now stuck at the boot screen.
It will show the boot animation forever, I've left it for up to about an hour trying to boot.
I can get in to download mode and I've successfully flashed other mods, including a stock ICS image I found somewhere (it was a UK one but I figure that probably doesn't matter?) and they all will just get stuck at the boot animation forever.
Where do I go from here?? Thanks in advance!
If you can't get into recovery to do a factory reset, you only option is to flash something in download mode. If you want to use CM9, use the 'n00b proof' method on the first page of the CM9 discussion thread & flash the Resurrection edition, then the latest nightly & Gapps.
Or flash a stock rom in download mode with Odin, root your phone then restore a backup. Or you could also do a clean install of whatever custom rom you want once you've rooted your phone.

Hi MistahBungle, thanks for the quick response.
Is there by chance a stock rom that you can suggest? I tried one that I found through google and it flashed fine, but it still won't finish booting.
I've tried flashing Resurrection again as well and still had no luck :-/

Try XWLPG. Although there are new roms uploaded by sammobile awhile ago. One thibg you did erong was you restored a system app. You shouldn't have done that.
Edit: Just to make sure, look at sammobile.com for the latest firmware for your phone. Although i9100 and i9100M is similar in hardware, better flash one that is specifically for your device

Thank you I will give this a go!
I need to return my Note back to stock. I rooted my Note back in Feb. the night I got it so I never did the official ICS update through OTA or Kies. Do I have to return back to GB that I started with or can I get by with flashing a stock ICS ROM, counter reset, and finaly Odin flash the stock recovery?
I appriciate any info ya'll guys are willing to provide.
ICS is the new stock... flash it.

Thanks! I have read several posts of people going all the way back to GB then doing the update to ICS through Kies. That seemed a little redundant and figured I'd ask lol. I assume all I need to do then is to flash the stock ICS rom, reset counter and then stock recovery (odin). Thanks again.

I think I misunderstood you. I thought you were asking which OS to use in order to be stock... not how to accomplish getting stock ICS on your phone. In any case I think if you are stock GB or stock ICS, Kies will work. But if you are running a custom/deodex version of GB/ICS, Kies will not work. That's probably what everyone was trying to tell you. So if you are running a custom ROM, you are going to need to flash a stock version of GB/ICS before Kies will work.

I gotcha. Actually been running JB for a while. Started of with GB which is when I rooted. Just didn't know if I had to go back to that or if I could just flash a stock 4.0.4 ROM before I retuned it for warranty (USB port issue). Bottom half of my screen doesn't register touch while charging.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
But does your USB issue affect the use of Odin? Be my first concern.
I don't believe it would. I can connect and is recognized on the computer and I can transfer files between phone and PC. I just have to unplug the cable from the phone in order for the screen to recognize touches around the lower half of screen
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Should be good to go then. I would Odin flash stock GB, reset and double check the flash counter. Check for Kies connectivity and pending ICS update availability. Throw a bunch of random apps on to give an appearance of use. Return for warranty all while pretending Android is a great mystery to you, even though we know that's not the case. Best of luck.
Resolved! I went ahead and took the following steps.
Flashed the stock rar file (GB) through Odin
Flashed cwm touch recovery through Odin
Flashed stock (GB) modern through touch recovery
Flashed reset counter through touch recovery
Used ADB to install stock recovery (did not trip counter this way).
Now completely stock (GB), I connected to kies and updated to stock official ICS 4.0.4.
All set to return it for warranty!!!
Thanks for helping out guys!

Hi,
First of all, I apologize, I am sure this has been asked before - I've searched here, googled, but none of the responses came up with a solution (or at least not one that fixed it for me).
My device : Simple SGS2.
ROM when I started : SlimBean
I tried to flash the leaked Jelly Bean from Samsung, went smooth - no issues. I also flashed Philz kernel (the one which is confirmed to work with the leaked JB via Odin).
So far so good, BUT:
Stock Revoery only allows "Odin Mode", which isn't a big deal.
Via ADB I can get into Philz CW Recovery.
I wanted to go back to SlimBean or try Revolt.
Now, I can flash either of them without issues. But the phone stays stuck on the bootanimation of either Slim or Revolt.
What I've tried :
- Rooting
- Flashing another kernel (which was a bad call but oh well, we tried)
The only thing I can do is go back to the stock JB rom, that works fine.
I just know I am missing something, but I can't seem to find it (yes, I wiped dalvik and did factory resets).
Currently the phone isn't rooted and all "fixes" entail me going into Stock Recovery and installing a zip - and that is the option I don't seem to have. If I try stock recovery, it's always in odin mode/download mode. I must also add: I can only get into Philz CM Recovery by using "adb reboot recovery"
Guys, girls, any pointers - even flames on what an idiot I am - are welcomed.

Backup your sdcard and try returning to your stock ROM and do a full wipe with Stock Recovery (it will wipe your sdcard) and try again. Hope that helps.
