I just got the screen replaced after a few months it not being used. I decided to do a factory reset, and after the setup, both wifi and bluetooth doesn't seem to turn on. My MAC Address shows as 02:00:00:00:00:00. This didnt happen before I did the factory reset (I was able to connect to wifi networks).
Also, I unlocked the bootloader, but I never knew that the xperia companion app doesn't flash unlocked bootloader devices. I'm planning on flashing it back to stock (I flashed lineage).
Thanks

If the flash was successful, then try a hard reset as first. (Don't forget to save your data, because all of them will be erased on your phone, except mSD card). You can read about it here point 15th.
Good luck!
i flashed the old rom back to (2.13.531) then lost the wifi on/off (greyed out), then did a hard reset as suggested. the wifi on/off is no longer greyed out, and the wireless networks are showing available (my home network) but 'connecting' msg keeps 'circling around,, and not connecting like before.
thanx, verso72
I'm rooted, stock ROM (locked bootloader..for now)
The other day, I couldn't connect to wifi, it just hangs on 'obtaining IP address', tried different routers, restarting phone/router/modem, I even did a factory reset, which didn't help.
What I think caused it, is when I installed this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mgranja.iptables
(it claims to install iptables, but the version is has is out of date, etc.) which wasn't a great idea, I know.
my question is, how do I fix it? I'm thinking it corrupted something in the OS, which means I can just install a custom ROM, or go back to stock (somehow) but I don't want to unlock the bootloader unless I absolutely have to (giving this phone to a friend, soon)
Hi, i bought l9 from orange romania 3 months ago. since then, in the first month i managed to update it to official Jelly bean, unlock bootloader, install CWM, and then ofcourse, root. everything went fine except until yesterday when the Wi-Fi suddenly stopped working. When i tried to turn it on it was stuck at Turning Wi-Fi on. I even tried installing CyanogenMod 10.1 on it, with no luck.
After my unsuccesful attempt with cyanogenmod, I also tried restoring a rooted CWM backup of a stock rom. Same problem, wifi doesnt start at all. What should i do?
Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem but I don't remember how I solved it exactly. I have done something in service menu or installed brand new one with kdz.

It didn't work. Same problem. Wi-fi hanging at "Turning Wi-fi on". Also, wi-fi mac address , under settings is "unavalaible" and i can't even turn on Wi-fi tethering. Flashing Original KDZ is my last chance. I'll be back with a response as soon i'm done.
L9 stuck "turning wi-fi on"

I also have an L9 and started having the same problems last night around the time of your original post. The only difference is that I haven't rooted the phone. There have been recent android updates, however. Any more suggested solutions?
Thanks.
Well, i think there is nothing left to do other than sending it to warranty. I'm still open for suggestions.

kdz didn't work?
take a look what logcat is saying
This is what logcat is saying. Another question. It is safe to flash v20.kdz using offline method for fully returning to stock?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
LE for users having the same problem. After sending it to warranty they changed the "faulty" motherboard. Now wi-fi is working just fine. Seems that i've got a problematic unit in the first place. Even though i unlocked the bootloader they changed it under no fees.
Hi! ive been browsing the net for almost 2 days looking for a solution to this problem. the other night, i did a factory reset on my PANTECH FLEX OS 4.1.2 non-rooted. Wifi was working fine before that. after the reset, wifi would now only show "turning wifi on" whenever i turn it on. i've seen threads regarding this but none with the Flex. PLEASE HELP AS IM REALLY DESPERATE
I've done factory resets, hard resets airplane mode tinkering and the like butthey dont work. i've been reading that one effective solution would be too flash the wifi in my device but i would need to root it. is there any other way to fix the wifi again without rooting it yet? i was thinking of doing a downgrade to ICS to try and fix the wifi but im not sure if that would work.

UPDATE: I just found out that the phone was rooted in the first place, assuming that superSU is only installed if a phone is rooted. This was just given to me so i had no idea that it was rooted anyway i checked to see if the phone is still rooted by running root checker basic and it says that it doesnt have root access anymore. Did i just un-root the phone? and how do i get back my wifi?
So I'm not sure what I did because it's been a while since I messed around with this phone (bought a Honor 8 Pro after that), but I most likely flashed something wrong. So the first weird thing is that apparently my device went from "griffin" to "sheridan", not sure how that's possible. The second thing is that when I flash a stock ROM, I have no wifi (it doesn't detect any network) and in settings it says my IP Address is unavailable. I tried nearly everything. Resetting WiFi settings, rebooting, reflashing stock ROM etc. Nothing seems to work. Help please?
My phone says sheridan too when i boot in bootloader mode. Anyone know whats os this?

Most likely you have flashed incorrect firmware. But this problem is common even with locked/stock devices, possibly could get fixed in the next update. The problem is that there is no way to downgrade firmware (otherwise this can be fixed by flashing 7.0 stock rom including firmware)
Downgrading the Firmware isnt a problem. Downgrading the bootloader and gpt isn't possible. Anyhow, my wifi and BT are broken too and going down to 7.0 and than installing all OTAs won't fix my issue.
