Hey dudes and Masta Developas! I'm having a WIFI problem with my Titan or Sprint Mogul PPC-6800. ROM: Default Sprint 3.56, Ok so WIFI used to work for me until this morning when something unexpected happened! I tried to connect to WIFI and it just stopped connecting (didn't show any error screen) and started radomnly connecting to another preset WIFI setting. WTC! I Soft Reset my phone a hundred times and figure out the problem but I couldn't. It would be awesome if some cool dude out there could help me figure this out! Thanks....
Have you tried going to Start > Settings then tap and hold on the wifi network you do NOT want to connect to and when the menu pops up select Remove Settings. Repeat until the only remaining network is the one you want.
I already tried that and it still doesn't work! Help
If your using a custom ROM, did you install a carrier cab?
For some odd reason, it happened to go back to normal?! NM thx for the help appreciate your time guys!!
The short of it is, my Wifi crapped out for reasons beyond my experiences thus far.
The long of it. I flashed epinter's 07/25/2012 Nightly and everything seemed to be working nicely, Wifi especially. Then today, out running errands and dropped my Atrix in my Car Dock and attempted to turn on Bluetooth for the first time since flashing, and the device froze then restarted. Once back up, I tried turning Wifi back on, and the device froze again and restarted. Thinking maybe the radio driver went south, I grabbed epinter's 07/27/2012 build (epinter-cm10-20120727_1846-UNOFFICIAL-olympus.zip), and still no luck. Back into Recovery, Wiping everything and also factory resetting then flashing twice over again, boot up, still no wifi, and if it manages to seemingly fire up, the device hangs and restarts.
Within the last 2 hours (Been at this for about 12 hours now.) I grabbed Jokersax's build (Beta 0.1.0), wiped/reset/flash twice as I have before. Now as I take a breath I noticed that the Wifi Icon came up in the Notification bar, but when I go into Settings and Scan, I see none of the Networks around me. I looked under Advanced and noticed that my MAC Address is 'Unavailable' nor am I showing an IP address, even though Wifi is saying 'On'. Verified on my Router, my Phone is not connected to it.
Odd Side note, installed aLogcat just to see if I could catch any errors, and it is not giving me anything, that is, I am not seeing any logs through the app. Most likely an unrelated issue, but still a tad annoying.
Everything else seems in order, including Mobile Data (Able to access Web Pages, Market/Play Store, receive email, etc.). Just Wifi pretty much 'Lights are on, but no one is Home.'. Any suggestions on next steps?
We discussed this issue over in some other threads and conclusion is that it's a hardware malfunction Ur broadcom chip is burned,many people (including me) had that problem.

I need to really work on my searching, tried several variations of 'atrix WiFi cm10' and could not pin down a related thread.
But back on topic, CRAP! What I was hoping was not the case. Thanks for the reply, will continue to dig for those threads and cross fingers the chip really is not fried (doubtful but hey, people can dream right?).
Thank you for the reply.

try making a clean install and you'll se that you won't have that problem!

I can't search the threads right now as i am typing from my phone-search is limited to 20-30 posts... But keywords for ur search should be : "atrix wifi error" or "wifi and bluetooth error on atrix" Several forums have this kinda threads,not just xda unfortunately ... seems like it's very often malfunction on this lovely phone. I couldn't repair my previous atrix so i bought another one.

We're talking fastboot wipe kind of clean install? Going to give that a go as a last attempt, will post results here.
Glimmer of hope tonight, was discussing the problem with a friend, went to turn on WiFi and it actually scanned and connected for about 2 minutes before crapping out. This tells me there maybe life to the chip still. Now to get fastboot to connect and try a wipe and see what happens.

Any news on this front? I am one of the afflicted as well.
I'm having a similar issue. though my BT works just fine, no delays, no errors, no intermittance.
Wifi, I can scan for networks just fine. i click on mine to connect. it shows connecting, noting that when it says connecting the signal shows 1 bar as compared to the full set of wifi bars when scanning, i am also right next to the AP. is tries connceting for about 20 seconds or so. then goes back to saying "saved" under the SSID, other networks showing "disabled" when this happens. i originally noticed this after flashing epinters cm10. i tried flashing 37p, 36p and 30p radios with no difference.
EDIT: also want to note that i HAVE disabled the "avoid poor connections" option. and have tried setting static IP.
I flashed the same and I am unable to get my wifi to work after clean wipe, radio install or anything else that I have tried. Could software have really burned up a wifi radio????

Mine works occasionally so I don't think the radio is dead. The rom just acts like it's not there most of the time and doesn't give a mac address. Sometimes it works though after a reboot. Would flashing a different radio help? My baseband version says N_01.77.37P
I had an IP and a MAC, but no wifi internet.
Using mobile data, I downloaded Set DNS and then enabled wifi, works fine.
Now it's working but mobile data is going very very slow, it took 5min to download Set DNS.
I have a skyrocket but the "no wifi" issue is probably the same - your not getting DNS
I'm going back to CM9 for now.
+1 wifi matter under CM10
Try rebooting the router.
Experienced same issue (unable to connect, showing full bars, dropping to 1 bar when connecting and never being able to complete a connection) rebooting my router has fixed the issue. I'm not technical but it might have to do with the DNS release for addresses .. in any case unplugging my router for a bit and restarting it fixed the issue for me.
Hello Everyone,
I need some help, I updated to JellyBean but now I have no data connection! I am not rooted, I have tried restarting my phone, turning airplane mode on and off, nothing seems to work. It seems nobody else is having this problem, is something in my settings wrong?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
I am having the similar issue. After updating, WI-FI stopped working, but I am able to get on the internet through the 3G connection.

Try playing with the Sprint Connection Optimization, and playing with the Power Save setting. Also, do generic reboot process.
so i had the same problem not being able to use my wifi at home but the 3g worked fine. before the update, my wifi worked so i knew it wasnt my wifi. i even tried to forget the network and enter my password again to reconnect. that didnt work either, i knew it probably had something to do with that sprint optimizer because it asked me to confirm something or another. i just got fed up and did a factory reset. that did it, still wondering what exactly caused the problem with the wifi...

I'm not 100% certain this is what fixed it for me, but I went into "Settings | Wi-Fi | Menu | Advanced | Wi-Fi frequency band" and toggled the settings, and all has been well since.
to fix the wifi issue with the JB ota: settings/wifi/menu/advanced/uncheck DLNA auto-ip. enjoy
damn, wish i knew this before resetting my phone
Hello!
My Phone has some Problems with Wifi since this morning, happened out of the Blue.
What the Problem is:
Cannot connect to any network, it says wrong password, even on open networks.
When it says "Connecting" the Wifi Signal Strength goes from Full to Zero.
What I tried to fix it:
Ofc Restarting Router, changing channels (also 2.4ghz + 5ghz), but that didnt seem to be the Problem. All my other WiFi Devices would connect without a Problem. And I was literally standing right next to the Router. I mean it used to work fine for the last 1.5years...
I was Running CM 10.2 Nightlies + CWM Recovery so I thought there might have been an Issue there.
First I wiped everything clean and reinstalled the newest nightly. Still the same problem.
Then I reinstalled Stock Recovery and the latest Stock ROM. Still the same problem.
Tried it with turning off the Power Saving Mode (*#0011#) didn't help.
Now I know you guys are big on LogCats so i attached mine here. I saw some E/ concerning Wifi but I don't really know how to make sense of it. So if anyone here wants to take a look at it knock yourself out.
Edit: its too big as an attachment so here's the dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/btqr0l8t0zm573l/logcat.txt

Yes i can see the networks just fine, but as soon as i connect the signal indicator goes to zero and it gives me the error
another thing that might be related is that i also cant pair any of my bluetooth devices anymore, i can find them, but pairing wont work
Same problem bro, am an old android user who went to iOS 2 years ago, and went back to android 10 days ago xD
first thing to do was getting rid of any rom and flash latest cm ! and buff ! can't connect to any wireless network, i flashed stock back and everything went fine, it just won't work with cm or aokp and i wish i know why !
it sems a sort of kernel config issue conserning wifi ...
how could it be a kernel issue? i tried cm and stock and both wouldn't connect.
but oh well, on monday i brought the phone to my provider, on tuesday i had a new replacement waiting for me so its all good
i think the wifi/bt chip was slowly deteriorating. BT Audio would sometimes crackle/stutter to the point where you couldn't understand anything, and that across multiple paired devices and ROMs
Hi
I'm a first time poster here
I'm having a problem with the wifi on my s3. I've searched the forums but the problems see to be different.
I can install a rom and when it goes through the initial account setup. when i get to the wifi i see my home network strong signal. i tap it and put in the password and it disappears, leaving me with my network not in range. Which is strange because it's working fine on this laptop.
i did the power saving turn off via *#0011# - no luck
i've wiped and reinstalled numerous times. each time i can tap on my network before it vanishes
Please point me in the right direction

the most recent one is, GT-I9300_WanamLite.Deodexed.XXEMC2.NO-WIPE, as i read in another thread that this fixed someone elses problem.
i've also used the cyanogen 10.1.3
one more try one more fail
Just tried android revolution rom. same problem
it picks up some networks, very low signal, but not the home router it is on top of. i can turn the wifi on and off and occasionally get a glimpse of my home network, but then it disappears.
really frustrating as i can't log into my google account and download contact info. makes the phone almost useless
Wipe phone flash your original stock rom or its update and test .
