[Q] Is there a ROM without Wifi issues? - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been on CM7 for several months and now Nookie Froyo for a few days but wifi keeps going out and I have a difficult time restoring it.
I don't even remember if the stock Eclair had stable wifi.
What Nook ROM has a fully functional wifi?
Edit:
cm7 nightly 87 was good for me but I only stayed on that rom for 24 hours due to other issues.
Phiremod 6.2 has been great for couple days.

Try a stable version of CM7.
Still rocking the Incredible with the XDA Premium App.

I have. Used all 3 stable. Maybe should try 7.0 again.

Stock was rock solid, but wouldn't connect to, or even see, ad hoc networks.

I don't use ad hoc but what is that?

I've been rocking Phiremod 6.2, which is built on CM7.02, for a couple of weeks now. Never had any WiFi issues, either with my home router (Verizon supplied) or free networks at Panera and Barnes & Noble.

I haven't had a single issue with wifi drops while running CM7 stables or nightlies for a couple of months now. I see posts where other people are having problems using the exact same versions I've been using (a variety of nightlies for several weeks, then stable 7.0.3 for a couple of weeks, now most recently n86). Have no idea why some people have been having problems, while I (and many others) have not. Rather odd.

I'm on N87 right now and I'm having zero issues as we speak.

I'm on N87 and I have noticed that the display icon will turn white sometimes but ill still be connected to the network...but I've been with the nightlies since day one and never had an issue when I couldnt connect to a network.

Thanks for everyones responses. I am now on N87 with no problems overnight. I had it charging with wifi to never turn off on and it remained connected this am. Will continue to monitor.

Yes it is crazy why that is.

Running n87, don't have trouble with infrastructure wifi but now I notice my joikuspot doesn't work anymore. It was working 2 weeks ago with whatever nightly/beta I was on at the time. Weird...

[Q] Wifi Bug in nightly 150

I am experiencing a bug in cm7 nightly 150 that wifi will just randomly cut out and when i try to turn it back on it will say scanning and then jump to disconnected. I have not turned on airplane mode and yes i checked android assistant and airplane mode is off. The only way to get it back is to reboot. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any fixes?

Is there one that you would suggest? I need something that's pretty stable.

I went with nightly 157 hopefully I won't have any more problems.

I'm on 151 with no problems. Sometimes deleting all the wifi connections and rebooting solves the issue.
I've been using 150 since released, with no problems at all. Wifi is very stable.
I am on 157 and I am having these same issues. Seems to happen when moving to another network. Looks like once I 'forget' all networks it rescans and finds them again. I only installed CM7 on SD today

Yes, I've only run into that when I switched wifi spots, and not every time.

Perhaps the problem is with ota build. Most here are rooted with custom rom. Are you by chance running a custom rom or the stock one that was sent over the air?

phone is default updated OTA
Then perhaps you can root and install a custom rom. It seems to me when I download a custom rom ota, its more likely to be corrupt. If its stock you want, it's available here. Better yet you might try Pete's Bugless Beast- stock with some additional enhancements. That way you get the stock a stock experience ... but better

It was the other way round for me, I've only had the rebooting issue on my 9023 when I was using a couple of different cm roms, and it went away when I went back to stock. Have tried some other non cm roms, but not for long enough to show any effects.
No reboot, fortunately
That's an issue with 2.3.1, just update to 2.3.4 ota and it should be gone

The CM reboots and sod are know bugs for CM and many have reported the problem stems from the flashing alternative kernel. I've been on GLADOS CFS @ 1.4 for several days now and have had absolutely no problems.

I've never had any random reboots on my NS4G...nor have I even heard of this being an issue with the NS line, at all. I've been flashing new roms/kernels like crazy for the last 3 months I've been using this phone...the longets I think I've gone without a single flash is probably 4 days....and I've never had a single hardware issue of any kind These phones seem really rock-solid to me!!
They've turned a Samsung hater into a Samsung fan overnight!!! I'd buy a GN in a heartbeat if I hadn't JUST bought my NS4G lol

Wifi connection problems after using onavo data monitor app

Last week when the Onavo data monitor app appeared prominently placed on the market home screen I gave it a try.
Unfortunately it created a very annoying bug on my phone running JVU and Semaphore 2.5:
whenever my phone looses it's wifi connection for any reason it will not recognize and connect to available wifi anymore even if placed directly near the router with full signal strength!
The only way to get it connected again is switching wifi off and then on again...
I already uninstalled the app and did a factory reset but nothing changed. Probably it messed up some system files that don't get touched during factory reset.
As I'm in vacation now and don't have my data cable with me to flash a fresh firmware, is there any way to resolve this issue in other means?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Nobody here with any idea how to resolve this? It's really annoying as even battery consumption goes up very much when the phone looses wifi and auto connects to 3g.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
I have no idea about your problem. I also have just installed Onavo on JVU firmware for a couple days, but everything is still ok....
So, I'm thinking the cause is from your router!! Why don't you try another wifi network?
Good luck!! ^^
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Thanks for your answer! It doesn't depend on my router. As I said I'm in vacation right now and therefor using many different available hotspots, it happens on all of them... :-(
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Any issues with battery drain and onavo? Cause it was sucking mine dry!! I thought it was semaphore's fault (i'm on icssgs 4.2) until i figure it out and uninstalled it. Now it is Almost as prior installing onavo. I have a feeling that it left some garbage behind though.
It definitely left some garbage behind and this thread is about to find out how to get rid of it.
Battery drain was and unfortunately still is very high on my device thanks to the non desired 3g connection instead of wifi...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Try to flash a new kernel again. It may help you updating some files that control wifi.
I used onavo for couple of days, battery drains. Its functions already in ICS roms, Less but good.

Thank you so much! That did the trick. The onavo garbage seems to be gone for good now.

You are welcome,
Could you please tell us about the battery usage. Do you noticed some changes in battery life?

Phone freezes while tethering

Hi, i went with this problem to several forums, but with no answer, so i figured that folks here, on xda are my last hope.
I have tethering problem - identical on WiFi and USB. I am able to tether for, i don't know, like 15 - 20 minutes, but after that, Phone freezes. Pulling out the battery and putting it in is the only way to make it work again. I don't think it's rom-specific issue, because it happened on two different builds - NexusHD2 ICS and some MIUI JB. Interesting thing is that it happened after i decided to come back to android from WP7 rom i had earlier. Before using WP7 i had exactly the same build of NexusHD2 ICS, and described problem didn't occure.
I would be very happy if you guys could help me out.

[Q] can't connect to WiFi running newest liquid smooth rom

As I put in the topic, I'm running the newest liquid smooth build on my N10. Everything is running really great on it, but I can't connect to WiFi at all? Sorry for posting this here but I'm a noob and can't post in the dev forums yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated considering my tablet is useless without WiFi!

Some wifi problems are inherent to 4.2. But if wifi doesn't turn on immediately after flashing any rom, usually a reboot cures it. Before rebooting tho, try cycling Airplane mode on/off.

I've already tried rebooting several times. I even booted into recovery and wiped everything again and reflashed the Rom. Still no WiFi? I've never had a problem with it on stock or cm10.1
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
I never had wifi issues with my N10 until I decided to give Liquid's newest build a try. I tried all the tricks - reboots, toggling airplane mode, even started from scratch and reflashed the entire ROM but had no luck. Sometimes it would connect for a moment, but then would immediately disconnect. As soon as I returned to my latest backup (Steve Spear's AOKP pub builds), and even since trying other ROMs I've had no wifi issues. I'm saying with 100% certainty there's a problem with Liquid's ROM, but it sure seems that way to me.
Maybe redownload the ROM and start over (perhaps something got messed up while downloading). That's the one thing I never tried as I got tired of monkeying around with it.

Would you mind posting the link to that ROM? I don't have time to mess around with issues and need a solid and fast daily driver. I use autocad on my N10 for work so I'm needing this resolved badly!

Nevermind, stupid question lol I'm downloading another Rom now. Ill just have to wait on liquid smooth to come out of its beta stages before using it.
Hmm... I'm on the latest LiquidSmooth and wifi works just fine for me.

See that's what doesn't make sense to me, nobody else seems to have this issue? I might just try wiping everything and reflashing again tonight.
