Good evening!!! 7 months ago, I had to use a backup in my rom aop 5.1.1. In that backup I did for TWRP, I had marked the Persist option without knowing that I was backing up the Wifi. When I used it and the system came back I noticed that I could not activate my wifi networks because there was no Mac address. I was able to solve this problem by copying the "WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin" file edited with my Bluetooth address inside it and I was able to retrieve the address Mac of the wifi. I spent a lot of time on this system and today I decided to install Mashmallow. That's when I noticed that when entering the wifi password, the system only saves, but it does not connect !!! In the settings> over the phone> status, it is labeled "Not Available."
An important detail is that when I downgrade to KitKat 4.4.4 or Lollipop 5.0.2 stock, the IP address becomes active again and I can use my wifi connections. The problem is only from Marshmallow 6.0.1 onwards. If anyone can help me in this matter I am very grateful. Sorry if any words were wrong because I'm using Google Translate. I'm brazilian.

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help. I flashed my G Tablet with Vegan 5.11 with Pershoot's kernal. When I navigate to settings>about device>status I get the following FC error:
"The applications Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have booted into ClockworkMod and have tried the wipe cache partition, wipe data/foctory reset and fix permissions, all with a reboot after each one and none has fixed the issue I am experiencing. Anyone else have this issue. I am just trying to retrieve my MAC address so I can add it to a wifi router for internet access.
I can probably use a work around and connect to another wifi router with MAC address requirement disabled and look at the logs to see the MAC address, but it would be easier for me to fix this.
Anyhow, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I ended up setting up mobile hotspot on my android phone and retrieved the MAC address of the tablet from there. Would be nice to know if there is a fix for this anyway or if this is a know bug. I don't see it as a bug on the Vegan rom sticky.
I had the same question too and googled this thread.
However, I played around a little more and think I found your solution.
Settings > Wireless & networks Wi-Fi settings
then press the on-Display menu button (the one with the lines that look like an inverted paragraph - I had to google what this button was called too)
Select advanced and it should be there! at least for me it was.
Hope it's what you are looking for!
Thank you for the work around, but it would still be nice to get this fixed. I am hoping the GB Beta 1 being based off of Cyanogen the issue will go away.
i too have run into this issue.
is this a common thing or should i be worried?
Well known issue since day one... the aforementioned process of browsing to advanced wireless settings is the solution for the MAC addy

I recently restored my old inactive CMDA Sprint Evo 3D back to stock 2.17.
After booting it up, I connected to WiFi and successfully obtained an IP and connected.
I am restored to fully stock with S-Off with a Locked bootloader.
When I try to open the market or web browser I don't have internet.
The web browser says "Web page not available".
I am connected to the WiFi network on other phones and this computer, so internet is working.
Tried multiple PG86 .zip restores and RUU .exe restores.
Even wiped /Data, /System, /Cache and then restored using the PG86 .zip, so there were no files that might be left behind causing issues.
Can anyone help me fix my WiFi issue?
More info please
Thank you for the reply but that's really all that I have.
It's a Sprint CDMA Evo 3D currently restored to stock using RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe.
During setup, I connect to my WiFi and it connects successfully and shows full WiFi bars in the notification bar. I also tried skipping wifi during setup then connecting normally from the wifi in the settings menu.
When I try to use the internet, nothing will connect. Browser wont load a page and play store wont connect, wont even log into my google account.
Feels like the phone is blocking internet access, like though a firewall or hosts, but it doesn't have any additional apps installed and the hosts file is original stock since my /system partition is locked from the restore.
I just did the HTC official bootloader unlock, thinking the wire trick unlock may have been causing it, but it didn't help.
What other info would be useful?
EDIT: Just flashed CyanogenMod 11 with Android 4.4.4 and WiFi is working. No idea why stock won't work but AOSP does.
I am micromax unite2 user and I have recently flashed miui7 ROM. It all went well except that now my apps(system &installed both) won't connect to internet on wifi but my browsers work fine. My phones date/time is set perfectly and I have wiped the cache partition as well in recovery. I have factory reset my phone. I have some doubt about the IP address shown in WiFi settings as it doesn't match with my router's configuration and changing it causes the browser's internet to stop as well. Please help!!
Hello, After doing root using magisk on my SM-730F I installed adaway, after installing the smartphone it stopped connecting to my home WiFi network giving the message Can't Obtain IP Address, but it connected to other networks without problems. I uninstalled adaway, did a factory reset, cleared the cache using TWPR. The problem is still, the message Can't Obtain IP Address is displayed.
Please help!:crying:
I am a complete layman (I did root for the first time in my life). I would like to ask for an exact explanation of what to do to make the device connect to my home WiFi.
So, the weirdest thing happened to me... I installed an app named WiFi Connection Manager from roamingsoft to play around, and I asked this app to blacklist my home wifi.
I then asked to un-blacklist it, but that failed, and ever since I cannot connect to my home wifi anymore: when I insert password it lists my wifi as "saved" but it won't connect.
Things I tried that did not work:
change wifi name
change wifi password
change wifi channel
reset bits and piece all the way down to factory reset the phone, install a different rom* and go back to original rom
* more on that below
Things I tried that did work:
change rom to lineage OS
change rom from android 9 to 8 (both original android one rom from the phone brand) (but going back to the original rom version 9 fails again, even tho I flashed form a newly downloaded file with nothing to do with the version I did somehow corrupt, and before I even logged in to android, so the phone did not even know it was the same user)
change the security of my wireless from wpa2 to something else (wpa/wpa2 for example)
oddly enough if I change wifi settings to have the same wifi name shared between my 2.4ghz and my 5ghz wifi, my phone will connect to the wifi, and it will connect using the 5ghz (the problematic one).

i also have the feeling a corruption to my nfc happened at the same time, but I don't know for sure, in case someone knows of a connection between the two problems let me know, but the nfc never worked on other roms.
When I flash a new image I flash a number of partitions including one named bluetooth, so I can't imagine which partition I am leaving untouched that has the blacklist in it...
Does anyone have an idea how an app -even if it had root privileges- could cause such low level damage, and more importantly how I could fix it?
