Anyone ever seen this? Ever since I installed 4.3, have had issues with wifi. Now my wifi shows as connected, but apps say there is no connection, network error, etc.
Any ideas?
Full wipe and reflash, test before installing anything and reset your router.
I got this working, not sure how exactly. I installed 4.1.2 (which exhibited same problem) then installed 4.3 again, and after that it now works.
What was the solution?

Everything is from Ireland 4.3 package I downloaded from SanMobile, I9300XXUGNA8. This build did not do anything when I first installed it, but after rolling back to 4.12 and then forward to 4.3, all is good. No problems of any kind for a week now.

That didn't work, I even tried different ROMS - aHero,Villain...! but still the problem persists!
Any idea what I should do ?
1.5 Rom
Try a 1.5 firmware rom, and see if the problem still exists.
For example, kimera, modaco or mr. Bang performance ROM.
If the problem still exists, its because of the router.

No, that didn't work. I tried different roms!
I've had no luck with wifi ever since I started trying out ICS builds.
So far I've restricted myself to leaked official builds. The phone just can't hold onto a damn wifi signal even when kept right next to the bloody access point.
Every few minutes it disconnects. Sucks when you're trying to download a huge update for a game.
I don't know if there's an official build out for India, I'm using DDLP8 which was marked as for Nepal. It's definitely stable, but wifi connectivity is totally useless .
I use Wifi Analyzer, and it shows up signal strength as pretty good, using automatic channels, and usually it latches onto channel 11 or 13. My other devices at home have never faced any such problem so it's definitely not a router problem.
Is there anything else to check for?
Edit: I'm using XXLPQ, not DDLP8 (which is the baseband version). My bad.
not familiar of ddlp8 as cant find it as sammobile / intratech
why dont you skip the leaked firmwares and just use the official ones.
also complete wipe your phone flash a GB stock and dont do anything else ...., no root no restores and see if it hold wifi.

It appears DDLP8 is a modem/baseband version. Not the build version. That's why you couldn't find it. But I'm just guessing. OP will have to confirm or deny that.

Yes, you're right. I am using XXLPQ for Nepal, after reading that the official Nepal build works fine on the Indian version of the S2. Sammobile still does not show any official build for India. Does this make a difference?
I saw the problem moments after I had flashed the ROM and rebooted, i.e. with a clean phone set to factory defaults (and rooted) - so I doubt it's due to any other program interfering.

Only for getting "official" updates through Kies. If you don't care about getting updates through Kies, then no, it won't matter.

Wifi drivers are in the kernel, I believe. What method did you use to root? Did you flash a kernel to achieve root? Try flashing a new kernel, or flashing a stock ICS kernel and see if your Wifi still drops after that.
Well, you can also give a try by flashing your baseband/modem itself and see it will be any better. You have few ones in this topic, all flashable via CMW :

Indeed, but it worth to be tried imo. Not sure it would be related but it only take few minutes and can at least fix the problem, he has nothing to loose by trying it imo.

I'm fairly certain modem/baseband has NOTHING to do with wifi, so I'll have to disagree with you on the possibility of it fixing his problem.
Well, i m getting uncertain now, was pretty sure about . Sorry for the mistake then.

I could be mistaken (I will admit that), but I have changed modem/baseband and seen no effect on wifi. I have changed kernels, and seen HUGE effect on wifi. So that's just my experience.

Ok, thanks for your links mate, at least i ve learned something. So, he can also give a try by testing different kernels then.
still having issues, you have to do some work..... flashing kernels is not the solution! it should work as is!
1: using cwm format system, cache, data, dalvik
2: flash one of the newer GB Stock Roms get one from intratech, using odin.
3: dont root just see if it works without doing anything, keep it stock. no restores nothing
if it works, it will work on ICS too now.

Well, if you re-read some of the posts above, he said he rooted, but didn't say HOW he rooted. If he rooted by flashing a kernel, then that could be what is screwing with his wifi, depending on WHICH kernel he used. So flashing a different kernel MAY actually solve his problem.
To my experience this problem is most likely related to the kernel you are using. The latest siyah kernel supposingly rectifies this issue. Why dont you give it a try?
I did and saw a big difference...

Sorry for the late reply - this time I replaced the stock ROM with DragonROM and Siyah 3.1 Rc1, and now the problem is..less frequent.
Hi, I have the same problem. My wifi keeps connecting and disconnecting multiple times even in a minute. I am on stock India ICS4.0.3. ddlp4.
I tried JB recently but since then I have had almost none existent Wifi. It tries to connect but then says Authentication failed.
I appreciate there is a known issue with JB roms not having an updated Bootloader or something of that nature, and I have also read that it is possible to fix the issue by using Odin to revert back to stock.
These are the steps I have taken:
1. Flash Stock Rom using Odin.
2. Reflash Stock Rom using Odin but also updating bootloader.
I have heard that the above steps do indeed fix the issue, but unfortunately I have found no evidence to suggest that.
As there are many people using JB now (well at least there are plenty of ASOP and Stock JB roms knocking about), has anyone else had this issue, and if so, has anyone got a nice step-by-step tutorial on fixing the Wifi issue?
I really need help now, as my phone is almost unusable without a Wifi connection.
Thanks in advance!

There was an issue about wifi in older leaks but it has been solved already. I suggest you should try latest jellybean leak XXDLI1. you will not have to full wipe... so dont worry. you will not lose any data or app or anything....
I've just installed CheckROM EVO HD 5.0 and my Wifi signal is still weak.
You mentioned in your reply that Wifi is fixed in newer JB builds, but why didn't it work going back to ICS stock either?
Really need an answer for this as I'm going round in circles.
I actually never tried going back to ICS.when I had the same problem I just flashed the newer JB and it worked like charm. Try installing different modem..

Does the modem really affect Wifi? I would assume that the modems only relate to the GSM capabilities of the phone.

In that case restore to ICS and wait for JB to be released by Samsung .

As you said before that you already installed back ics which also has different kernel than jb that you used and it didn't worked as well, so tests why I said TRY installing different modem.

Problem found!
Ok....I've found the problem.
It appears that my WIFI refuses to connect to any WIFI running on the 2.4Ghz spectrum. Whether I set security as Open/WEP/WPA/WPA2 etc I cannot connect unless I am literally within a metre of the Access Point.
Luckily at my workplace we have 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz spectrums available for WIFI. If I only allow the 5Ghz spectrum on my phone I can connect to the APs without an issue! Leaving my phone on 'Auto', allowing both 2.4 and 5 I cannot connect.
The problem here is, my home router, as with most people, doesn't support 5Ghz, and being with Sky Broadband I cannot get access to my Broadband account details. This of course means I cannot replace my router! :-/ I can however connect a new router to the network, disable AP on the Sky router and enable AP on the new 5Ghz router.
....so I have a work-around!
But this isn't enough! WHY WHY WHY does my phone have problems with 2.4Ghz???
Steps I have taken (in no particular order):
Flashed back to Stock, gone from Stock to Rooted ICS, ICS to JB, back again, and in every combination
Disabled Wireless Power-saving on my phone
Flashed various kernels
Flashed various modems (yes I know modems have nothing to do with Wifi...but some people on this forum insist this can fix Wifi issues)
....and NONE of the above have worked.
Could this be a hardware issue?
Anyone else experience this?
FIX HAS BEEN FOUND: Delete all APNs, add a new one, only input "name" and "APN" fields, and reboot.
Help, I have this annoying problem. Mobile data is not working on any ROM which is based on Android 4.4.4.
It works fine on ROMs using 4.4.2, and it works fine on Stock (which was 4.1.2 or something?).
I have tried several 4.4.4 roms: Official Cyanogenmod. Ehndroix V. NeatROM. SpiritROM. SlimSaber.
I checked and reset APN settings and everything looked normal. Googling the problem there are some others with the same problem, but I have not found any solution.
Currently running Resurrection Remix which is 4.4.2, but it seems like all 4.4.2 ROMs are unstable on my I9100 phone so I would really like a 4.4.4 ROM, which worked perfectly except for this issue.
This is caused by the incompatibility between the modem and the ril(that's included by the rom). Flash a new modem and see if this fixes your problems.
Thanks, that makes sense I guess.... But uuh, it looks very complicated, with tons of different modems available... Do you have any recommendations? I am in Denmark if that makes any difference.
Update: I have now tried almost all of the recommended modems in this thread, plus a few others. No luck... Anyone have any good ideas?

That's weird. I don't know any workarounds. I guess you could stick with the last working version of android then, (probably 4.4.4 android code broke compatibility with your apn).
Okay, I tried with a few more radios... Then I tried installing the app GetRIL which is supposed to automatically find and install the best radio available.... Didn't work, my baseband disappeared and then I installed a SII fixer app, but it all got ****ed up.... And now I flashed a 4.4.2 ROM back and everything works again.
I wonder why, but I'll just stick to that.
Until a Android 5 ROM is ready.
Case closed.

Well you did a common noob mistake regarding to rils. NEVER use getril as it falsely reports mismatching rils and installs the wrong ril anyway. We got a few months to go until an official release

I'd wish you didn't say I did a "noob" mistake as I did everything I could before trying getrils, including properly and manually changing modems.
Anyways now I have tried with two Android 5 ROMS (Cyanogenmod 12 and Resurrection Remix), and it's the exact same story... So for fun I tried to see if there was any 4.4.3 ROMS in existence, which there is. I found one called Techfusion+, where data also works. So it is something in 4.4.4 that messes my phone up.
Update:
I have now upgraded to a Galaxy S3 (I9300), and guess what, it's got the same problem, except this time 4.4.4 ROMS works fine, but still no mobile data on Lollipop.
Maybe it's my sim card??

I had similar problems on my I9100 - also in Denmark - and found that the problem disappears when I remove *all* access point configurations, and then add a single access point, with only "name" and "APN"/"Adgangspunkt" changed from default. Name=tdc and Adgangspunkt=internet. Then suddenly mobile data connects.
I hope this also works for you.

YES!!! That did it!! Deleted all APNs, added a new one and only input the name and apn fields. Rebooted, and it connected! Thank you! Jeg elsker dig! Hold da kæft, if I ever meet you I'll buy you a beer!
... now, does anyone know of a lollipop ROM where they removed the stupid "swipe to unlock" bull****?
Ok so I have Paranoid Android 4.4.4 and I had upgraded to the most recent (I believe 5.1) and no matter what I did or straight talk did, I couldn't find a solution to get the data to work. I ended up having to downgrade back to 4.4.4 to get data to work. Has anyone had this issue with this phone and lollipop on Straight talk? The best I can figure is that straight talk doesn't support Android Lollipop..can anyone confirm this or post a fix to this problem? Thank you guys.
FYI
Before someone says use the search, I have already and googled for hours, there is a bunch of stuff on APN settings but nothing for my problem. Thanks again.

Please someone help I'm dying to get on 5.1 and just can't do it if I'm not going to be able to use my data!!
Try flashing a LP modem/radio via recovery. Maybe PA doesn't include a radio so the phone is using the older KK radio and it might be causing incompatibility issues.
