I love my S3 except the wifi. The only way to use it without disconnects is to disable wifi save mode in *#0011 EVERY SINGLE REBOOT. I still think samsung should burn in hell for all eternity for this horrendous bug, but that's my opinion...
My question is, when using an AOSP rom, is there still a *#0011#? If not, will wifi go bonkers or will the save mode be always disabled?
Thanks a lot!
Hi, searching for stable wifi tethering ROM for my E10i. Using minicm7 (see sign.) and this option is a bit unstable -> working only when phone screen is on. When is disabled and locked, wifi tethering stops working.
Or does anyone know how to set up to work correctly?
EDIT: Searching for real stable and fast ROM, dont want to slow down my E10i
THANKS
wifi sleep policy

the teethering stops after the screen turns off because the default settings turn off the wifi after the screen is locked ( to save battery).
so go to settings and find the wifi sleep policy option. there you can change it to remain on even after the screen is turned off.
in reply to your other question-> minicm7 2.2.1 is the best rom out there ( at least thats my opinion).
Oh, man, thank you very much! Didnt know about this option, although I saw it months before. Now I have the right settings so dont need to change to different ROM
(minicm7 roxxxxs x) )

Reflashing maybe helps. And if you use custom kernel, it will be much better to flash latest one with MiniCM7-2.2.1

brother, I've flashed my rom via CWM, because i couldn't understand the ( unlocking bootloader + kernel flashing ) installing from sdcard was simple, so please help to flash your way :cyclops::crying::angel:
Gingerbread 2.3.5/CM7 was the rom and no kernel.

So, the same problem still remains. Searched and tested many different settings and still, after screen turned off, the wifi tethering stops working and all devices are disconnected.
And the best joke is, that there is NO wifi sleep policy option in phone settings (or I didnt find it there). Show me the way to that option please. THX
(the one I found was only "changing wifi to 3G")

btw. when using wifi tethering in girlfriends Galaxy Ace, there is no problem and all working great (even when screen sleeps). She got stock ROM with root only - no special settings!
half solved - must be pluged on charger for all options!

Go into Settings - Wireless and Networking - Wifi-settings, press menu-button and choose advanced... Wifi-sleep policy

Yeah, but it didnt work. Tested all three options and each working (including that NEVER) only when the screen is in standby or charger is plugged. When locked after half a minute wifi stops working - ALL OF THEM!
Any other advice or special option in cyanogenmod settings? Any patch or possibility to change some file in phone system?
It is great to have this feature everywhere "on-the-go", not only at home...
Stock Kernel
CWM Recovery
MiniCM6-1.0.2
App: Barnacle (rooted phone needed)
Wifi tethering works great (just WEP encryption, though)
App tethering not working - app starts, create AP, but cant connect to it with other devices... But thanks for advice to test it.
I'm using GingerDX | v029 never had problem using wifi/usb tethering :good:

yes the wifi sleep policy is there in the advanced settings.
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
My phone wasnt usually hit that problem at the first time I used custom rom, but recently, on every Android 10 rom, including Havoc, Pixel Experience or Linenge OS, my phone keeps hitting a lot of errors, such as screen black when I switches on the display and I have to turn off and switch on screen again, or the Wifi issue I am facing right now. The first issue is kinda fixed, but the Wifi one is really frustrated. I did restore Jeff's Magical Backup, didnt work. Is there any solution? I will be appreciated

God goodness thanks a lot. Youre my saver. I was tried to get back to stock rom
Turn off wifi and bluetooth scanning on AOSP Q. U can find it at location in setting
So when I install a custom rom or gsi, wifi or hotspot doesn't work at all. Both are stuck trying to turn on, but never will. I've tried searching trough internet with no answer, could anyone help? I have the EU version. No one else seems to have this issue with this device. When I flash back OOS wifi and hotspot work fine again. I attached a picture of the logs that I think are the issue but I have no idea how to fix it. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix I'd be grateful!
Same issue with my J7 2017
on stock rom wifi and hotspot work just fine but on crDroid 6.27 wifi just searches all the time and no network shows at all and for hotspot , i can't even turn it on .... kinda frustrating
what app are u using btw?
App was called matlog.

Sorry for late answer, but I'm sorry to inform you that you have the same thing I had, the problem seems to be on hardware side I got another one of this same phone and on this one I've had 0 issues with wifi on GSI or custom roms.
Don't know why it only happens outside of stock, it is super strange. I spent countless hours trying to fix the wifi, there is barely any info about faults like that online. So frustrating, but atleast I have them working now with this second N10.
