Just a heads up!!!
New firmware 4.0.A.2.368, finally cleans up this mess!!!
Was a MAJOR issue affecting MANY users relating to WPA and wifi:
Although it took 3 months glad to see SE addressing the issue.
Too bad i already bought another phone because of this issue.
Guess my NEO can be my backup phone now!
If you are one of the many experiencing this issue then update immediately!
This is the response from SE:

"Hi all, I've been monitoring this thread closely and I would like to know how many of you that still experience Wi-Fi problems using the latest (August) update? 4.0.A.2.368. I know that this update contains Wi-Fi improvements."
Works fine here
But it wasn't a really big issue for me, it reconnected fast.
But it's really good to see it fixed.

The new firmware has INTRODUCED these wifi problems for me.. bleh!
I doubt SE doesn't really fix the problem, and just monitors the disconnection and try to restart network.
This affects someone that had no problem before.
Still the same here.. :/ I´m on global generic and it still drops the connection. From what I´ve heard UK generic doesn´t have this issue but suffers from major battery drain

Nope - UK Generic, no WiFi issues, no battery issues.
Big deal is to absolutely ensure that you do a full factory reset BEFORE and AFTER the update. Stops random reboots too...
If you haven't, try it.
I second this. Had the same wifi-disconnect-after-a-few-minutes-of-usage issue with the 184 and 145. The problem finally went away after I flashed back to 184, then upgraded to 4.0.A.2.368.
The arc now:
- no wifi disconnect issue. connects extremely fast now.
- boots up extremely fast. i would say at least 70% improvement.
- the whole user experience is a lot smoother, quicker, snappier.

Full factory reset?? How so??
Go to Setting -> Privacy -> Factory data reset. That will reset the phone back to factory setting.
hi guys after 2 weeks finally i found out a solution for my home wifi internet then my android phone now work like champ .so i hope that something im about to write here will help you:
(i have 1 modem adsl named Postef,1 Wifi Access point named Planet WRT415)
here are what i did :
1) change the IP address of Modem to :192.168.1.1
change the IP address of AP to 192.168.1.2
2) change the channel of AP to 9
At the first time my modem and AP have the same IP which is 192.168.1.1 so when i use iphone4 and laptop to browse 192.168.1.1 it logged in to the Modem but my Android phone logged in to the AP so that is the problem ,the android phone can not distinguish if you use the same IP for Modem and AP
Cant post in the developers forum (not enough posts yet).
Currently running CM10 on a defy green lens but an having issues with the wifi connectivity. When the wifi toggle is on it seems to kill 3g and wifi does not work. turn off wifi and 3g is fine.
Happy to roll back to the most stable cm10 version just no idea which to go with (had 12/8/12 build before that didnt have the issue until this morning for some reason - hence the upgrade)
cheers

so i flashed back to tghe earlier build that was working OK for about a month but still no sucess. Any suggestions as to what version I can flash to or should I go back to CM7 or CM9 maybe ? Other than this one issue (which was fine until yesterday) I really like CM10.
Killing 3g while Wi-Fi is on is normal. You cannot use both connections at a time.
Can other devices access the internet using the same access point? Have you properly configured the access point on your defy?

yes other devices can use the web. normally when the wifi is in range it kicks in and overrides the 3g. in this case the wifi symbol was coming on in the botification bar but was staying gray and then not connecting to the web.
As it turns out it all started working again this afternoon - no idea why but after 12 hours of not working it appears to be fine again, and I have updated to the 26/9 build and that is fine also, so I've no idea whats going on here - all i care is that its working again thank goodness,
cheers
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.
Spoke too soon. Problem has reappeared again tonight.
Hey guys!!
I am facing a problem here... my phone loses connectivity to data services once on sleep mode and applications like whatsapp only respond when I open the application. Basically push service seems to be stuck.. I tried everything.. switching ROMS, switching Kernels... and switching Basebands... but in vain!!! Ironically everything works fine on wi-fi & i get push messages swiftly.
I strongly feel that this could be a baseband issue and as you all know we cant downgrade our baseband anymore.. I am on UBUBMH1 modem.. iI think so because when i was XXXMEA then I wasn't facing any such problems related to connectivity..can anyone suggest any resolution of wither how can I downgrade my baseband or what can I do to sort this out..
no help???
Hi there, i've a galaxy s4 gt-i9505 since dec 2013 and i've been experiencing the wifi button stuck in dim green (wifi stuck with that activating ... Message and not working) and not working since ive bought it. It came originally with the android 4.3 stock rom. First i thought it could be a hardware problem but when i reset the phone to it factory settings wifi starts to work again. Ive noticed that if i stay with only one wifi network registred (the one i use to reconfig the phone during the first reset) the wifi works fine, but when i try to connect to a second wifi (any router) the problem arises and the only solution is to reset to factory settings again.
Ive read tons of people complaining about this problem but ive never heard of this second wifi netwrok issue... I dont know wether android loads a different config or modem driver for the first wifi network registred during the first boot but the problem only comes after i try to register a second one. Ive tried all wifi config like keep wifi on allways etc but nothing seems to solve the problem. Ive also tried the airplane toggle trick but didnt work. Ive tried other stock roms from other countries like germany dbt but always on android 4.3... Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Im on i9505vjuemke now...
Hello,
Anyone has this issue when your zenfoen 3 forget the wifi password when you disable wifi connections?
Everytime I turn off the Wifi I have to re-type the password.
Obs:
Model: Z012DC
Kernel: WW_15.0410.1807.75_0
I have the ZE553KL model, and currently I am experiencing exactly the same problem: For Asome reason, no new WiFi passwords are ever stored. I am not quite sure when this started though.
