Four day old phone return to the seller under warranty .
If you follow the advice posted above you will lose warranty and a rom cannot fix a possible hardware problem .

The post I pointed to was one where someone had uploaded a WiFi folder.

[Q] Wifi not working

Hi all thanks for your help,
Australian user here on virgin.
Basically when I first got the handset I flashed and used villain rom... everything worked fine for a week or two.
Then the wifi just stopped working.. it wouldn't turn on. I would enable it.. it would scan.. scan wouldn't work and the icon would turn off.
and I can't wifi hotspot my 3g connection it just says error.
The problem seemingly went away at random :S:S:S and now has arisen again.
I've tried using batista rom and that didn't help.
Tried searching couldn't find any solutions ((
ok i happen to have this issue last month and i spent 2 damn days to check everything.. but end up it's hardware problem.. you turn on your wifi it will scan a while but then shut off by itself right? if that so i really confirm you need to send back to retail shop.. before that you need to do a nandroid backup and flash back to original rom ( unroot )
trust me man it's the motherboard problem.. check this link for how to unroot..

p.s. you need to buy a usb jig to clear the binary.
hope this help

[Q] [HELP] Puzzling WiFi Problem

Hi there =)
I've a very puzzling problem with my phone ..
it's started two days ago .. I was reading my mail then suddenly the wifi turned off and start again, but it stopped at 'Obtaining IP address...'
I thought maybe it's router problem, so i restart the router but still the same problem .. then I turned off the phone and took off the battery and tried again .. nothing
then I changed the router to another one .. but still the same thing
removed the password from the router, tried IP address,
I tried 3 applications : FXR WiFi fix and rescue, Fix My WiFi, WiFi Fixer
but nothing worked ..
I've root, so I flashed the original kernel, then the last thing I tried is Factory reset
wiped all the data and cashed .. but none of it helped
I'm using the ROM JPKJ2 2.3.5
any suggestions that may help ?!!!
happens to me at times...
do you have more than one router/switch in your house?
Install wifi analyer (or equivalent) and check which channel your router is using..
is there any overlap with say your neighbours router?
try changing the radio channel on your router or it is has a smart channel switching setting enable it.

it's not a router issue .. I went to a friend's house and tried to connect to his router but it's the same thing .. stuck with 'Obtaining IP address...'
my flat-mate also have SGS2 but the wifi works good with him, I also tried the tethering from his phone to mine .. and it didn't work =/
thanks for your reply =)
Flash a different modem not kernel first .
jje
I just flashed the entire rom .. and it worked =D
but still want to know what caused the problem !! =/
thank you guys =)
How weird????
I experienced the same thing last night, in the troubleshooting that I have done, the WiFi would stop connecting after I tried installing the Roboto Font using Font Installer, it first occurred when I upgraded to KK5 from KJ3, I didn't like the font so I went ahead customizing my device to my usual standards then realized that the WiFi was not connecting, it was stuck on Obtaining IP Address.
I decided to factory reset, nothing, so I flashed back to KJ3 and it was working again, I was relieved, so I installed Jkays Mods and also the Roboto font and Speedmod Kernel, woke up in the morning to the WiFi not connecting again, so I flashed KJ3 with Odin and it connected, I flashed CF Root KJ3 and it was still working, I installed Jkays Mods and it was still working and when I installed the font using the app, it stopped working again, so I flashed KJ3 through Odin again, then flashed CF root and it was still working, this time I used font installer to install Roboto font before Jkays Mods and again my Wifi was stuck at obtaining IP address.
So I flashed KJ3 again and it was working, then CF Root and Jkays Mods and all is well so far, but I fear that it can happen again as I have no idea what is really causing it, and I can't make the connection between the app Font Installer installing the Roboto font and my WiFi being borked...
What were you doing exactly before it stopped connecting....
there's something wrong !!!
the first time I had the problem I was just reading an email from my teacher using Gmail, nothing weird ... now after I solved the problem by flashing the rom I start restoring my apps using My Backup Pro, then i restart the phone and the problem return !!!!
there isn't any new app, all the apps was working well without causing ay problem.
so i flashed the rom again without wiping any data .. my apps still there and the problem solved !!!!
Thus far, it seems the issue for me was the Font installer, I still don't think that I am in the clear, so I would use my phone normally, maybe something will reveal itself with patience
I will keep the variables to a minimum, use the phone normally and finish installing all of my apps, if my phone continues to work okay, I will try a custom kernel and so on and so on, it is good to know that the issue goes away when a stock ROM is flashed though, hopefully that will not change

I'm having the exact same problem with Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 stable. I downloaded daily 116 but found that if I just reflashed the 7.1.0 .zip the wifi would start DHCP association negotiation successfully again.
The problem for many seems to be related to updating busybox installer by Stericson
Just flash over the original rom and don't update busybox

it happened again, but this time I only flashed the modem file from the stock ROM and it worked =)
you don't have to flash the entire ROM

L9 P760 Wi-Fi stopped working.

Hi, i bought l9 from orange romania 3 months ago. since then, in the first month i managed to update it to official Jelly bean, unlock bootloader, install CWM, and then ofcourse, root. everything went fine except until yesterday when the Wi-Fi suddenly stopped working. When i tried to turn it on it was stuck at Turning Wi-Fi on. I even tried installing CyanogenMod 10.1 on it, with no luck.
After my unsuccesful attempt with cyanogenmod, I also tried restoring a rooted CWM backup of a stock rom. Same problem, wifi doesnt start at all. What should i do?
Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem but I don't remember how I solved it exactly. I have done something in service menu or installed brand new one with kdz.
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41486538&postcount=3
It didn't work. Same problem. Wi-fi hanging at "Turning Wi-fi on". Also, wi-fi mac address , under settings is "unavalaible" and i can't even turn on Wi-fi tethering. Flashing Original KDZ is my last chance. I'll be back with a response as soon i'm done.
L9 stuck "turning wi-fi on"

I also have an L9 and started having the same problems last night around the time of your original post. The only difference is that I haven't rooted the phone. There have been recent android updates, however. Any more suggested solutions?
Thanks.
Well, i think there is nothing left to do other than sending it to warranty. I'm still open for suggestions.

kdz didn't work?
take a look what logcat is saying
This is what logcat is saying. Another question. It is safe to flash v20.kdz using offline method for fully returning to stock?

LE for users having the same problem. After sending it to warranty they changed the "faulty" motherboard. Now wi-fi is working just fine. Seems that i've got a problematic unit in the first place. Even though i unlocked the bootloader they changed it under no fees.

Wifi not connecting on Asus Memo pad 10.1

My tablet will not connect to ANY WiFi network anymore. Everything was working perfectly, but had to send the tablet to Asus for RMA because it would not charge anymore. But now, when i connect to my wifi network it just says its saved and does not connect" I figured maybe it was an issue with my network, so I went out and tested it with other WiFi connections. It can scan and detect everything, but the same thing happens while trying to connect to anything. My Sony phone and laptop are able to connect to everything perfectly, but the tablet will not, even to the networks which it has previously connected to.
Things I have tried:
Deleted all networks by using the "Forget network" option and tried connecting again.
Tried "open" type networks without any passwords.
Rebooted the tablet several times.
Done a factory reset, twice.
Tried to analyse logcat data.
Anyone else know a fixs for this problem? Or do i have to rma it again..

Nobody ?
Same issue - any resolution?
I purchased two refurbished ASUS MeMO Pad Smart 10.1" tablets from Groupon - $109 each - in late Sept 2014. Figured it was a good deal so I jumped on it: I would have one for myself and one for a gift (for my father). Mine has worked without any issues, but I finally gave my father his tablet today (Mar 1, 2015 - yes, six months later) ... and I cannot get his tablet to connect via wi-fi. I've tried all the same steps - from the initial setup to trying other wi-fi locations to doing a factory reset. Nothing is working.
How can I fix this???? Please help!!
I just had the same problem reinstalling the stock rom.
It was a permissions problem caused by the su executable blocking che permission change, I solved installing a selfmade custom zip via recovery, ispired by this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-asus-memo-pad-8-me180a-ww-3-1-0-42-t3027620
This is the url of the zip, if you know how to use it... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18969675/me180a_permissions_fix.zip

My system worked for my MemoPad, but I have no idea if it's compatible with your model...
It's a simple script who changes the permissions, it doesn't install anything, so I don't think it could do any damage...
The problem with original rom was about "set_metadata_recursive" function not existing, so I had to list all files from the directories and call "set_metadata" on each one.

Not registered on network

Good day guys.
I have a problem that I think is very common, however I haven't found a solution yet. I recently update my S6 edge (925I - latam) via odin to Nougat, everything was cool but I can't do or receive both calls or sms. I have cellular signal, however there is not registered with the network carrier.
I already flash modem.bin from older firmwares and do not work. Sometimes I loose cellular connection or stay the same, with signal but not registered. I tried other possible solutions like airplane mode and reboot, flashing roms, connect only via 2G or 3G, nothing have worked. My sim is not corrupted and the imei is just fine, without report or related.
I hope you can help me. Thank you very much.

Same issue for me.
Tried:
OTA update
Odin update - installing new stock firmware (with different software version)
Factory reset
Installing TWRP + LinageOS beta
Replacing the sim slot in a service
Nothing worked. Anybody?
Look in settings > status
Do you guys have an IMEI?
This happend to me 2-3 times last 30 days... sometimes I have signal but not registred on network, sometimes there's even no signal, etc...
I also tried several things to resolve the problem...flashing modem, reset dialer, changing network mode, enabling airpalne mode, another SIM card, etc... For the 1st time, flashing modem helped... but 2 days ago when this happened again flashing modem did not help...then I tried changing network mode and I got signal again... last night it also lost signal and today I changed network mode to 4g/3g/2g auto and it got signal again, then switched back to 2g and it's fine till now...
Hope this will not repeat....if does, coulb be very annoying thing...

Bro, download some older firmware from the one you have from sammobile and exctract it...there you'll find modem.bin
At last, I couldn't fix my s6...so I sold it...then the guy who bought it needed to write some chip to motherboard and he got it working again...

I know the topic is old... But I have the same phone and the same network error. Has anyone here managed to solve it?
