Hey guys,
How can one restore his wifi connection after all the ROM updates, rooting, etc. Apparently, the wifi needs some sort of software installation?
Bluetooth works perfectly. Wifi scans, finds, asks for password but does not connect.
I'm a newbie, please explain in simple terms. thanks
Hey there, first make sure you are using the correct password .
If you use doomelord's kernel you have to flash his WiFi module... Get it from here

Hi,
I am currently using pfonck's 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 *FINAL* ROM (& have been for over the past month or so). Prior to this I was using the stock SE build prior to the ....C.O firmware in pfonck's rom. In both of these SE roms I have had no WiFi problems whatsoever.
After trying many roms from the forum, and trying to connect to my home WiFi after adding it on my phone they all said: Authenticating, then Connecting, then Disconnected. My router WiFi setup is: WPA2/PSK Non-Broadcast SSID where the router only allows connections to MAC addresses it has been setup to store, recognise, then allow. I have also been explicitly told I must not change the router settings at all at home. So with these settings it was always fine with the stock SE rom, and then currently with pfonck's 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 *FINAL* ROM.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Request: Please could you make an optional cwm-flashable .zip which replaces the WiFi .libs and/or (whatever else is necessary) with the stock SE WiFi .libs (so just all of the WiFi part of the rom is back to the stock SE WiFi) ??
Many thanks
Kind regards
i got the same problem, stock SE wifi works, but after upgrading to any ROM wifi just has same error. even worse, it crashes the whole wifi network at home =S
but luckily i got large data allowance from my phone carrier, so dont really care bout wifi, and the benefits of upgrading ROM, far outweighs wifi =)
If it was really that simple to use the stock Wi-Fi libs the devs would have done it, do you think they enjoy solving problems with custom libs? And how many times have you started a thread asking the same thing?
EDIT: Its funny really. I don't seem to have any wi-fi problems with gingerdx v10. and i can change my router settings.

You may be able to change yours, but I'm not allowed to change the settings at home. That's the only reason I am asking as I would still like to use the amazing roms that the devs here make - they are awesome!
Please can a dev help me by having a go at this (see post #1). Thanks
Kind regards...
Hi there,
Installed FeraLabs Rom today, clean. Problem is I cant connect with my wlan / wifi router. Worked before the Rom...where could be the problem?
Thanks in advance!
I explain a bit more: There is no error massage or anything, it just wont connect. Do I have to change anything before using w-lan? Please help guys!
my "lockscreen" is also gone...how can I lock the display now??
Well, installed ***FeraLab*** v10 ~Adrenaline~, numberlock is back, but I still cant connect Wifi / W-Lan...it seems to work for others, am I missing something? Do I have to install something, make some configurations?? Come on guys, I cant post in the FeraLab Thread, so please help me here. The Phone is more or less useless without wlan...
Should be simple enough- install either the wifi.zip fix for your kernel or rom.If he says you dont need it(in his rom thread),then try the kernel wifi fix,as I needed that to get wifi working when I was running DKv06.
Download/stick it in sdcard and flash it via xrecovery.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Upgraded Galaxy S2 to latest ICS update available in India.
But after that Wifi is not working properly. WAP2 authentication is not happening properly.
Wifi analyzer shows good signal strength.
No notification for wifi shown in top bar. But in notification dropdown wifi is full green.
tried battery remove, wifi sleep policy change, password change and *# code to reset driver.
Any other help?
thanks

Are you sure the password you entered is correct? Because this problem shouldn't occur if you're on the official firmware and kernel. This MAY happen if you're rooted and have a custom ROM installed which is in a BETA state. This is normally a problem related to the kernel itself. You should probably try restoring your phone if the WIFI doesn't work at all. Or maybe you can restart the phone again and there might be a fix.
doing a factory reset also might help... it helped me in my case.
which from you upgrading ,via KIES or ODIN.try to download firmware then flash via ODIN.i m had the same case first time come to ICS.
sorry for my bad english
Some solution
I updated using Kies.
BTW, I have some work around, for anyone interested.
On wifi router disable WEP encryption (not WPA), in that case S2 can connect to wifi properly.
But when WEP encryption AES or any other is enabled, it cannot connect to wifi.

Hi
I own an AT&T Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337) running Lollipop 5.0.1 (OK2). I have a stock ROM and kernel, and I'm rooted using SuperSU. I THINK I've triggered Knox, as my boot screen says Samsung Custom.
The gist of the problem is, when I turn on WiFi, or rather attempt anyway, it attempts to turn on but after about 30 seconds it just turns off, rendering me unable to use the internet since I don't have service. This started happening when I tried to spoof my MAC address using Change My Mac. At first the MAC just would revert to it's original state every time I tried to spoof it, but the last time I did it, the app crashed and WiFi just wouldn't turn on anymore. I have mediocre knowledge on how android works, but I have a feeling this has something to do with my EFS partition.
Please help me, and thanks to those who do.
Finally please DO NOT post just saying you have the same problem as I do.
try to reflash this rom if you have it this will 100% fix our proplem
your proplem is you tried to change your mac address as i think
so the wifi will not run atleast get back your stock mac address
Hello all,
I recently rooted an old Samsung Stratosphere in an attempt to turn it into a mobile Kali device, and after rooting it using a custom ROM ("root zImage" that I found via googling and a forum post on rootzwiki) and then performing a factory reset, I now have no wifi or BT, and no MAC address. Attempting to connect to my wireless network results in the phone starting wifi, attempting to scan for a few seconds, then returning an error message of "unable to scan" and turning the wireless radio back off. Also, now the phone tries to activate every time I turn it on. I can bypass the activation by enabling soft keys (I googled that also), but how can I disable the auto-activation?
I installed CWM recovery and did a factory reset, no change. I removed the SIM card (I even tried a different one from another one of these phones I had laying around with a broken screen), no change. Why would the MAC address disappear? Isn't the MAC address tied to the actual hardware?
It's a shame that this perfectly good hardware is so difficult to re-purpose to use as something else. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I am willing to learn Android development in order to figure this out, but I'm really not sure where to start, and I expect this will take some time to get to a point where I can develop my own ROMs and apps. I have downloaded the Android Studio; where should I start? Thanks.
