[Q] Another unsolvable WIFI problem (Xperia RAY) - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hello,
I can't use my wifi card since some months, when I've flashed one of various ROM I tried in these last months.
I've tried different ways to solve the problem, but I can't believe that the problem is unsolvable!
Probably could be something related to kernel modules?
Now I'm using the Ultimate HD 4.0 ROM, I've tried to flash the stock WIFI module (superleggera V4), and 2 custom kernels (CTCaer and Lupus for ICS). I've had the problem even with the stock ROM, that I used for some weeks until yesterday, when I flashed the last Ultimate HD.
Some idea of what I can try to get the rid of this problem?

I think this is a hardware related issue bro.. once you have flashed the stock Wifi Modules it should work.. if the problem was with the modules or the kernel or may be some other software related issue... so if you are still under warranty.. just relock your bootloader and go for a warranty based service or replacement from the Sony Repair Center in your City

mmmhh, so bad
I'm totally out of warranty, so I only can try to solve via software.
I will try to flash another ROM, and if it will not work, I will resign...

nothing to do, I've tried with the stock kernel (Ray4.1.B.1.13_CWM), with the Ray4.1.B.1.13_VDS_OcUv, even flashing the stock wifi module after them, but nothing changed.
Now I reinstalled the Lupus one, but it's the same.
The only differences is that with the stock one I can't turn on the light of WIFI, even pressing it it remains turned off, while with Lupus or Ctaer the light is turned on like if the wifi card is working, but it doesn't show me the network available where I am.

God doesn't play dice with the WiFi .. ?

Authenticating, obtaining ip adress, saved then loop.
After 6 hours on google im confused totaly.
There is hundreds or thousand posts about this problem and dozens "solutions" (personaly i tried 10 or 12 of them)
How is that possible can someone explaine me.
I mean in some roms wifi working normaly and in some wont.
What is changed in those roms, what is the problem?
Any help is apreciated.
It maybe kernel ralated .
Flash sirkey new kernel and try !!
If still the problem persists then flash kernel modules found on that thread !!

I get this problem whenever I flash cm9 direct from the cm site. I was advised to go back to stock first and then flash cm. I flashed the 4.0.4 from boy racers ftf list, booted in Stock, powered off and flashed the baseband from the fxp thread, booted up. I then used cm9 from the fxp thread rather than cm9 site and got stable WiFi.
I like pratting about though, so I'm now on rooted stock 4.0.4 using the guide in this forum to create your own rom

Thanks guys, finally some answers.
Here is my situation,flashed JellySandwich 4.3 (so far perfect ICS for me), tried sirkays 7.431 (rom is developed and tested with that version) and flykernel 0.7 and flykernel 0.8.
Nothing, one or two connections, 200 tries.
Then, 6 hours before tried sirkays latest 9.587a, with him is better but stil half-half situation.
"If still the problem persists then flash kernel modules found on that thread !!" will try this,thanks.
Full wipe done, etc.
On repacked4ru rom for example everythings working perfect, never experienced single problem with wifi. (same ap,my home ap)
Once again, flashed with full wipe, cache wipe, dalwik cache wipe.
Tried multiple times,result is every time the same (also redownloaded rom) and tested same kernels with other roms, they dont cause problem by themself.
Router isnt problem.
But, that what realy frustrating me is this problem is very common on android but i didnt seen in hours of googling what realy causing him.
Tell me please guys, im a noob but not stupid and learning fast.
To cure some problem man must knows hims root, whats causing that problem.
What causing this very common problem on android, one or more things?
Thanks again (and sorry for my bad english, my english is learned from movies,music etc)
Try picking up a pure stock ftf file from boy racers thread. I have a copy of the last gb stock ftf and two stock ics ftfs stored on my pc so if I screw up, I have options. I had this problem of reconnect loops using cm9 as above and pretty much reverting back to stock was all that cured it. Once you've flashed stock you can then go about the business of putting jelly sandwich of whatever rom you want on. I've tried putting jelly sandwich on twice now have issues of my own so am sticking to rooted stock.

Tried that and 10 more solutions, thanx anyway.
My questions still remains, that problem is obviously software related, how is possible no one knows reason why is this so common problem and whats a problem.
Come on guys, somebody knows for sure, this is xda-developers, guys here are able for unbeliveable things (like porting android to Samsung Wave and similar)

I Have same obtaining IP problem.Wifi problems started with official update to ICS.(on GB no wifi problem) Tried all possible "solutions".Nothing works... And finally? Use only WPA security on your router, but still some connection drops. Or buy new wifi router. From information I found. Older routers may have some new standards compatibility problems

Thanx revizor
Unfortunately, WPA security isnt option.
Im not on a hardware ruter, using virtual hotspot (Connectify applications + my notebooks wifi)
No WPA support.
Im back on repacked4ru rom , no phantoms problems, all works fine (too bad, yellysandwich is a nice rom,perfect ics for me)
Greetings from Serbia
p.s. (this thread can be closed)
The problem is the dhcp client ...
To resolve this issue, I create an /etc/init.d script for delete 2 tmp dhcp files
My script 99dhcp-reinit :
#!/system/bin/sh
rm /data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-wlan0.lease
rm /data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-wlan0.pid
Try it

[Q&A] No Wifi/Bluetooth after several attempts

Well, first of all hi, i'm rather new here, though i have been running around now and then to grab a few roms/kernels for the Neo, onto the main question though.
I flashed the Neo with the moProject V2, flashed the kernel than came with it and wifi was unable to start, it keeps getting stuck on "Turning wifi on...". Then i went to flash the thing again with LuPuS, now both wifi/bluetooth don't work. I've tried everything, every other bit of the phone works except these things, any suggestions?
Also could someone tell me how to flash the wifi modules? I've really tried almost everything except that, flashing another kernel just gets me bluetooth at most (Pac and nAa)

Hi,
I think to remember moProject42 V2 is JB 4.2.2 therefore WiFi and Bluetooth will not work on LuPuS. You have to use a 3.4 kernel. You can get them from mikeioannina thread or TheDarkDefender one. Both are the same.
Don't need to flash WiFi modules. Just flash the kernel, and if you don't have WiFi, re-flash the ROM without any wipe. It should work
Regards

Well i just tried, it's the same nAa kernel i used before, bluetooth works now though, but wifi still doesn't, it's still stuck on "Turning Wi-Fi on..."
Re-flashing the rom fixed it, many thanks for the help

Which version is? Have you re-flashed the ROM?
I'm using nAa 4.4.51 with DarkRom and WiFi works pretty nice.

[Q] Mini Pro SK17i - Touchscreen broken even in recovery, after installing a 4.3 Rom

(Sorry for my english) Hi folks, I have a problem... using the search button I saw many threads talkin' about touchscreen's problems.
I tried with the many solutions over there, but my problem is different.
I installed the Legacy Xperia 4.3 Rom, after that, my phone starts to have problems with the touch.
When I used the sliding qwerty keyboard, touch doesn't work, but when I used my phone in vertical mode, it works for a couple of seconds.
Then, I remove the Rom and I used the 4.2.2 Rom from Legacy Xperia.
The touchscreen doesn't work even in the recovery menu. At first I thought that it was a hardware problem, but when I replace my touchscreen the problem still doesn't fix. I noticed another thing. I can't flash >4.1 kernels anymore. I tried to flash the same 4.3 kernel that bricked my touch and my phone doesn't boot at all. With another kernel, my phone turns on properly. Please, help me... :crying:

Yes... I tried many solutions, like Aroma method, Active ROM method, flash stock ics rom metod, but nothing changed. I think that my problem must be a software problem because now I can't flash any >4.1 kernel.

Try flashing the following combination :
Lupus Jb v7 kernel (link : http://goo.im/devs/wedgess/LuPuS-MPDI-Kernels/JB/mango)
Hepta Error Rom (link :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2336571)
I swear mini pro feels like its possessed or something (generally speaking )
For me, the LegacyXperia ROM and its kernel always gave problems with touch and my right soft key would go haywire. The only stable combination that worked for me is the one I posted above. Try it, and see if it helps!

Wrong kernel I think, flash stock kernel first, or stock based kernel, for stock roms stock based kernel must be flashed and for cm, different cm based kernel.
i i istalled this kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2132641
and the stock HK firmware in first line but the problem are still here
im pretty sure its a wrong kernel problem
news:
phone relocked for pc companion restore procedure. pc companion work fine and restore my V, but problem persist.
i have not any idea

Bro, I suggest you report any experiencing problems here as suggested by @Flyhalf205
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1heV9QFdKBhD6iUPrPcdRFwiSVRqa5QcH3iHl0JVS484/edit?usp=sharing
thanks but thats not a solution to the problem. The problem is known, and i know that.
But i hear people reacting on the wifi issue thats they solved the issue but its unclear how, since i installed the same stuff, even the insecure kernel.

FYI, most wifi problems cause by kernel. You may try flash different kernel. Here we got Flykernel & Lunar Max Kernel. Give it a try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762319
@IMarks
Flashing the custom kernel still doesn't give you WiFi?
I fixed the issue, the insecure kernel and flykernel didnt work but the lunar kernel did.
still one issue though, media audio doesnt work over bluetooth, system audio / call audio seems fine however. i tried with beats audio on and off but it didn't make a difference.
