I have a two week old GT-i9300 running stock 4.3 firmware and have been trying to install custom ROMS. After successfully rooting and installing CWM recovery I've tried installing over 10 custom ROMS but end up with the same WiFi issue. The phone searches and detects the various WiFi networks fine and saves them but will not connect to them. The bar stays grey and doesn't change to green and no icon appears in the task bar. I've wiped the cache and delvik cache aswell as wiping data as advised but to no joy. Has any one had the same issue as using the stock firmware is annoying as it's taking upto 20 seconds to wake from sleep.

It can be a baseband problem, so for that, I suggest you to use a a mg4 baseband.
I take it that means downgrading to 4.1.2. Is this something that can be done via Odin and will it result in these 'no network' issues people are having or can I just flash the modem file ?

Wifi is kernel not modem .

So I flash the Ics update (LPQ) last friday and all went well, my phone was working perfectly. However on sunday my phone kept freezing and the only was to get it working again was to pull the battery. So because of this i decided to go back to GB and wiped everything and flask a stock firmware (KI8) which is my carrier firmware. Now my phone keeps turns off every 10 minutes or so any it is really annoying. It only seems to happen when the phone is not plugged in to charge and I have tested it out and it doesn't tend to happen in flight mode either. At the moment I have wiped the phone completely and haven't even installed an app yet it is still happening. Has anyone got a clue what this could be as its driving me mad.
Thanks in advance
I have the same problem, i updated to ICS and now my phone reboots every 2 / 30mins.
I tryed lots of roms and now downgraded to a 2.3.3 stock rom, with re-partition, no SDcard .. but still ... it reboots itself a lot .
The strange thing is that it reboots when left alone, the sgs2 can stay up for 3h+ when it plays music on GoogleMusic ...
Oh, and i also tryed with a new samsung 2000mah battery kit, still no changes, so it's not a battery problem
I had this problem with GB 2.3.5 stock firmware. After flashing custom ICS - Lite'ning Rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274 , the problem disappeared. Of course I did full wipe of device before flashing.
Thanks, Ill try flash lightning later when i get home. As i think that it is something to do with the radio I have also tried flashing a new modem (KE7) but that did not solve the issue either. It there any app that can monitor processes so that i can look at what is happening just before it turns off.
I had this when I was using MIUI. I flashed Spikes Pure ICS yesterday and haven't noticed it since.
Strange, I had this issue on GB, and not on ICS. Try flashing some different roms, full wipes of course, and see if that helps

i did a factory reset by using the *2767*3855# command , then i went to the recovery to format data/system/cache/sdcard/emmc .
Still, no luck and getting reboots
Last night I flashed both lite'ning ron and Check rom. Did a full wipe before both and I am still getting reboots and freezes. Think Ill have to get a jig and bring it back to the shop
So just to update. The latest think i have tried is changing the modem to KE3 and I tried the speedmod kernel and the syriah kernel. Still having the freezing issue. Have also tried a kernel cleaner but to no avail. Anything else I should try before bringing it back. Thanks
Why dont you try to install a stock rom, then root it, and within CWM recovery wipe everything, then reinstall your stock rom thru odin
Have tried flashing the stock firmware 2.3.5 KI7 and wiped the cache,the dalvick cache and factory reset the phone before but that didnt work. Is there specific firmwares that will wipe everything?
Corrupt SD can sometimes also cause random reboots. Do you have an external SD on top of the included internal SD? Try formatting them both. Start fresh.

i agree with you i tried this method last year and it worked,, you should try this and if doesnt work format your phone system wipe data, wipe cache , wipe dalvik for a very fresh start..
Yes I thought it could have been the sd card to so I removed it from from the phone and formatted the internal memory, then wiped the dalvik cache, the cache and the phone and flashed a new rom but my phone started to freeze after about 20 minutes. Its weird originally my phone was Freeze and wouldnt wake from sleep, then it would just randomly reboot and now its back to freezing and not waking from sleep
I would try KH3 rom. For me that was the most stable GB rom
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Hi all,
Pebble Blue i9300 SGS3 unlocked
Was on Android Revolution HD 14, full wipe flashed Omega 33.2 which is when I notice the issue where I would only be able to connect to WIFI within 3m distance from router (used to work from outside house and across the road now only in the same room). I can see my network at full strength in other rooms of the house but I receive authentication error/incorrect password despite it being correct.
I then decided to rever to stock rom, I unrooted and did triangle away and flashed the rom my phone came with, problem still persisted.
Then flashed back to Omega 33.2 with full wipe and problem persisted.
Did a series of full wipe -> flash -> factory reset in OS -> full wipe -> flash -> factory reset, after which the problem still persisted.
Flashed Omega 33.3 today over top of Omega 33.2 with full wipe and format /system from CWM, problem still persists now.
Any ideas on how I can remedy this?
Thanks
Van
this might not be related but give it a try
-Try changing your WiFi channel maybe to 6? or 7
Try a different kernel try a different rom .
jje
Hi, thanks for the suggestions.
I have tried already different WiFi channels and have tried 4 or so different ROMs and the siyah kernel. Have tried aosp and stock firmwares along with the Sammy based jellybean ROMs. Have tried cm9.1, stock 4.04, stock 4.1.1, leaked 4.1.2 stock, omega v33.2 and 33.3.
WiFi was perfect before my first flash of omega v33.2, immediately after the flash it was extremely poor and hasn't changed through all the ROMs I've tried since then.
Wondering if it could be somewhat coincidental and my WiFi module if faulty. I could reflash to stock and send for warranty but would only like to as my last option.
Thanks
Van

Not sure if it's the case with Omega ROM, but I had a similar issue with an AOSP-based ROM. Solution was simple: flash back to stock ICS ROM, connect to wifi, then flash back to JB ROM. NO problem after that. might be worth a try before sendning it back for warranty.

Thanks for suggestion, had tried that when the problem first appeared and it hadn't worked. Just went back and did it again, wasn't able to connect to WIFI on stock rom I9300XXALE8_I9300NZCALE5_NZC, did factory reset from within rom, still unable to connect. Rebooted to stock recovery and wiped data/factory reset, wipe cache and rebooted straight to downlaod mode, flashed stock ics 4.0.4 I9300XXALE8_I9300NZCALE5_NZC again which is what came on my phone. Still no go with WIFI despite having 4 of 5 bars of signal. I get the connecting symbol which goes for a while then changes to scanning and back to connecting again, meanwhile under the wifi network in question it just remains "saved, secured".
Just performing triangle away/re-flash stock once more to preapre to be returned for warranty.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Van
I know there are many forums addressing this problem but mines is a bit different, I know the common solution is App Info > Clear Data but this doesn't help. Neither does a force stop, reset or a clearing of settings cache.
I resolved to needing to do a data wipe, however I received this message, "failed to stat /data/date/com.android.defcontainer/cache" and nothing wiped. I started the phone to the exact same home screen and apps, but I had lost wifi settings and such, and can't open settings to set up wifi yet again.
I contemplated reflashing CM through the installer but wasn't sure if the failed to stat problem would interfere and potentially brick.
Any help would be much appreciated, cheers.
Flash the latest stock firmware for your country with Odin, factory reset in recovery before first boot.

I read online that downgrading from 4.4 (CM) to Stock 4.3 would hard brick the device, is there any merit to this?
No, if you use the right firmware and do it properly there is no more risk than with a normal flash.
Problems with all roms SM-T210
Hi!
This problem is driving me crazy!
I have a similar problem!
I have Samsung Galaxy Tab SM-T210
For a long time I used RocketTab rom. I decided to try out new Android 4.4.2 Rom.
I started to get an error "Unfortunately settings has stopped" when I tried to open settings. I also got another application errors.
Now, it does not matter what rom I install, i get application has stopped error.
Even the RocketTab rom.
I flashed original stock rom via Odin, same problem.
I tried CWM and TWRP recovery.
I wiped dalvik cache, system, cache, Data, internal storage.
After flashing a new rom via odin or recovery, same problem.
I don't understand how it's possible that after deleting everything, I still get the same error.
Sometimes when I open settings, instead of getting an error, tablet restarts.
Tablet was 100% working before flashing Android 4.2.2
Any ideas?
Thanks guys

Because the problem seems to be very similar.
Point taken!
Hey Guys
Since many apps don't support GB I was forced to do update.
After flashing with original JB 4.1.2 everything seems to be ok, but there is no way to turn wifi on.
WIFI icon on bar is half-highlighted, tapping on it gets no results......Wifi tethering not working also
Cache and Full Wipe was done, there was suggestion to flash with "siyah kernel" - also not working.
It seems that problem is related to fault ROM file because on ICS and GB wifi works fine......
Any tips? suggestions?
i9100 without wifi is useless :crying:

Did you flash the correct JB update? Maybe try a different STOCK JB rom from a different region.
Or directly try to install a custom ROM, for example CyanogenMod.
Suddenly previous day both WiFi and hotspot stopped turning on my Moto E(condor).I tried factory reset,changing ROM etc but nothing worked.It isn't turning on.Iam on marshmallow RR.I also tried apps called wifi fix but nothing changed.Any 1 plz help .
do you use any custom kernel...?
tell every custom kernel or kernel related changes you did in the past few day

problem started while i updated the rom.On some rebots the problem started and after 2/3 days it isnt turning on.No kernal changes made
well I would advise you to re flash the rom....
wipe system, cache and dalvik... and then flash
if it still doesn't works...
wipe everything (ofcourse except internal storage and ext sdcard) and flash the rom...
and ofcourse before performing all the stunts stated above, remember to make a backup
I'd the same issue in past. Do a clean flash If bug persist inform the rom developer. :good:
If I helped u tap on thanks.
I wiped everything,including internal storage.Changed the ROM .But result was same.The problem started after some days after flashing update so I don't think that it isn't related to ROM ,isn't it?
look like hardware malfunctioning get it to service center...
