Strange 4.2.2 ROM wifi issues - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
For some reason when i flash a 4.2.2 build of a ROM the wifi doesn't seem to connect. To make sure it wasn't a one-off with a particular ROM i tried two different ones with the latest 4.2.2 build. When i type in the passcode for my wifi route it says:
Obtaining IP address,
Saved,
Authenticating.
After authenticating it just goes back to obtaining IP address. I've left it to sit for 15-20mins and it doesn't seem to progress however when i restore back to my previous 4.1.2 build the wifi connection is perfect.
Would anybody know how to solve this?
Thanks

Is there anyway to fix it or would i just need to wait for the developer to update the ROM?

no info. what ROM? what kernel?

Kernel
Try flashing another kernel :good:
I had the same problem, just flashed Syiah Kernel and everything worked without problems :laugh:
Peace

That kernel does not work with 4.2.2... don't do that!!

of course it does, just not with sammy-based 4.2.2

Sentinel ROM version 4.5 and Slim build 5 ROM!
Just the basic kernals which come with the ROM itself not too sure about the specifics of kernals.

Would there be any kernal that I could flash for the sentinel ROM? I quite like it

just read the kernEl thread and see what they're compatible with and compare it to what you have

How to know which kernel is correct?
As of now I am using Sensation rom which has Siyah kernel 2.5.2 and I want to flash speedmod kernel or N.E.A.K. Kernel,
N.E.A.K. Kernel only supports sammy roms
I tried to search but I could not find out if Sensation rom is aosp or sammy do you have any idea of it?
also does speedmod kernel support both as nothing it written about it on its thread
Thanks

Normally on the first page of a rom thread you will get a description what is the rom. For example MIUI is well MIUI. Hyperdroid is sammy deodex rom with of course modifications and tweaks in the build to make it better than stock.
Sensation rom is sammy deodex no aosp nothing like that. And when you normally look for an AOSP rom it normally would say it in the heading of the thread anyway.
On the kernel thread it has a guide of what roms the kernel works on and which ones it does not. Siyah works basically with any rom. CM7 to AOSP to sammy deodex. Regarding Simone's kernel which is the NEAK version or something like that it is based on only sammy stock deodex roms and that is mainly the ones in original development and android..just look out for deodex, sammy and stock rom
AS above its all a question of reading the info on the first page of the kernel post .
Plus if it does not work flash another one .
the Neak kernel should be ok been on mine for a few days .
Speedmod likewise ok have used it before .

Thanks everyone for their wonderful help!
I have got one last question
Speedmod kernel says "it is only for Samsung Gingerbread ROMs. It will not work with CyanogenMod or MIUI ROMS!"
does this means it will not work with sensation rom?
Edit: ok looks like the different versions are just the updated ones
But still the question is if it supports sensation rom?

Now, if you look at the VERY FIRST page for SensatioN ROM,, it says:
SensatioN ROM Features:
-Based on Samsung Firmware XWKK5 Android 2.3.6
With all of this information, you should be able to deduce that the Speedmod kernel WILL work with your ROM. If you still don't understand, I'm going to suggest you don't flash anything to your phone, for fear of ending up with a paperweight.
Ok this time I understand everything
I didn't knew that Sammy roms means that the ROM is based on Samsung's stock ROM
Also I thought that speedmod only works on stock ROM so all this things got me confused
But anyways now its all clear

Wind Amaze 4G ROMs

This is my third Android phone and the first one that its a Canadian one. I used to have GS AT&T and just followed guides here because everyone had AT&T and no problems there. Now that i got Wind Mobile i dont know where to start. I did unlock the bootloader so thats one thing done right. Now all the ROMs i see in Dev section are based on T-Mobile version. Will i be able to flash them?

Whatever ROM you flashed go back to the original thread and look for the kernel.
The ROM i am using recommends CWMFauxKernelv007 but that did not help or maybe i am doing it wrong? I just copied boot file form CWMFauxKernelv007 and flshed it with Easy Kernel Flasher. Did it 2 times and still no Data.
Flashed stock ROM back and 4G is back. Looks like APNs are gone. Is that something i must do every time since i am using T-Mobile ROMs?
Is this rom working in turkey

[Q] When someone calls, they can't hear me.

Whenever someone calls me, they say "hello" and I reply but they can't hear me. It doesn't happen ALL the time but MOST of the time. It is annoying, anyone having this problem, have solutions for it?
Running Latest AOKP.
Which kernel are you using with this rom ?
The problem you facing can arise if you are using a non-mswap version of Siyah/neak kernel as we need to use the mswap version only for AOKP/CM9 based roms ..
I faced the same issue when I didn't read the OP of the siyah kernel and flashed the wrong one over paranoid ..
Hope this helps !!!

You have some reading to do.
There is no difference GB/ICS modem.
all modems will work for you, and you would need an AOSP flashable zip in order to flash if you are running AOKP....

[Kernel] Kernel for leaks??

I often switch between different ROMs, then for me Siyah kernel is a good choice! But unfortunately, it doesn't support 4.2.X leaks. Then, when i want to boot a 4.2.X Samsung ROM, i'd like to simply flash a compatible .zip kernel, and not the whole ROM again! It's good even the stock one, but i can't find the .zip to flash it.. Can someone help me to find a working kernel??
Thanks in advance
There is NO custom kernel for the leaked 4.2.x at this moment as Samsung didn't drop out the source so no way to customize it

Just reflash the full rom. It may be that the glamour kernel is repacked in a slightly modified state so the original leak kernel may not work. reflash the rom

Yes, i think the same thing. But it'd be very faster and useful to flash only kernel, and not the whole ROM.. Peace, i'll make a reason for that!

The kernel version should match the firmware version. There is a fix in my thread, maybe it can solve your problem. You should make a backup though, no idea on which Rom, kernel you are. Might result in making the problem even worse - Short version: Maybe it will help or do something which I have no idea of. Disclaimer in my thread applies
