[Q] wifi freezes with MS2Ginger 3.0 - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have been using the MS2Ginger 3.0 rom by walter79 and it's a great ROM. However I noticed that i'm having trouble connecting to my office LAN (secured with 802.1x EAP). The wifi connects fine, but the icon remains white and after a minute or less the connection shows as connected, but anything I do (facebook, browser, email etc) fails to connect. I read somewhere that this can be a driver issue and the soltn is to flash the stock froyo and then restored the nandroid backup, but no luck!
I searched over xda forums and found that this is an issue with kernel > 2.3.6. Can anyone point me to the fix for this (if one exists)? If not then I'll have to go back to walter79's 2.3.4 rom or the stock froyo...
Please help!
Thanks!!!

I flashed back to stock froyo and the office wifi works like a charm! I'm now in two minds whether to go back to stock or not!

Net Connectivity Problems?
I'm also having issues this morning with getting on Market, as well as web pages thru browser... and come to think of it, I haven't gotten any Gmail notifications either.
I'm on T-Mo w/ Nexus One running CM 5 beta 3 (2.6.29 non-memhack'd), but I don't think the custom ROM is the issue.
Can anybody else verify connectivity issues on T-Mobile this morning?
i've had this issue... but mine stuck. i was hopping between dwang and cm. they were both nandroid backups and i was testing themes on them to see what worked and what didn't. anyways i got done and restored my cm build and market just wouldn't connect. however if i opened it and hit menu > downloads quickly it showed them briefly before saying there was an error connecting which i take as it meaning there was a connection, but there was something interfering with it. only way i was able to fix it was wipe and reflash cyanogen. :/
hey i had droid wall installed, un-stalled it then it was working again i think it was either a problem with t-mobile or droidwall was stopping it

Workaround for CM7 wifi issues

So yesterday, after having CM7 loaded for about 2 weeks, my wifi stops working.. After doing a bit of research I discover its a common problem, so I try the various solutions including changing the number of channels and both upgrading & downgrading my radio image, but nothing works.. Somewhere along the line I lost my ClockWorkMod recovery image & being the newbie that I am I decided to go back to the start & follow the process that I initially used to root (the one at unlockr.com), but at the last step, instead of installing the rootedupdate.zip file I decided to try my luck with installing CM7 again, & lo & behold it worked, wifi's working again...
not really sure which step of the root process fixed the issue but if I had to guess I'd say the correct radio image was flashed, maybe someone could properly identify the correct solution...?
My adb logcat session shows that its trying to connect to some network that is unavailable and fails. ı tried to remove the 2nd , 3rd offline networks and it started working.
thanks very much deleting the saved networks worked!! wifi back on

Indeed it works...but only for the first time. As soon as you disable WiFi and enable it once again, the problem is back. So you will have to delete the saved networks one by one, each time you want to connect and in the end you will have no more saved networks left (like me). Now the only "workaround" is to enter the network details every time I want to connect.
Is there still ni working solution for this?
still no WLAN
Having to choose the lesser evil between:
no GPS under CM 7.1 or
no WLAN under CM 7.0.3 I chose the latter.
The antenna works, tethering too, the signal is detected, but logging into a WLAN fails, it keeps scanning over and over. Deleting other networks didn't work.
Any hint?
BTW, I tried 7.2 nightlies... since Market (aka g-Play) is missing there is no real use so far.
Apart from that - CM rules!
I am using both of them right now and it is okay.
Sometimes I won't get any GPS fix and I have to switch it off and on again (or restart the phone in the worst case) to have signal.
CM 7.1 with latest radio (7.13.35.13).

The radio should be the difference here as it seems that CM > 7.1 don't have GPS bugs anymore.
Update your radio version to newest (7.13.35.13). Everything work fine in CM7.2 for me.
I know it s been a bit but thanks for the info helped alot deleting the random networks while out and about after deleting 3 wifi runs great

Wifi not working?

So I dont exactly know what is going on. I go to connect to a wireless network and it will start to connect, say its obtaining IP adress, and then refresh and start all over again. It never actually connects and stays connected. I know its not the router because I have tried numerous networks (that worked before) and now they just stopped working. I did have trouble with root and I re unlocked the tablet because root wasn't working. Is there anyway I messed something up? I installed the 3.2.2 rooted rom and now I flashed back to moray both with the same non-working wifi result.
Anyone know what is going on?

Did you by chance restore system apps and data through Titanium Backup? Sometimes wifi is messed up by restoring a previous version of the system app and data over a newer version supplied by a custom Rom.
You might want to just wipe everything in recovery, reflash your Rom and set it all up again fresh.
my WIFI was messed up when I swiched Kernels way back. I had forgotten to push one of the files... when you switched ROMs, did you wipe first or did you just install one over the other?
have similar issue after going from hammerhead 3.2 to moray 2.2.2.
Infrastructures wifi works fine, but whe trying to connect the xoom to an ad-hoc (from Nokia jokiuspot) just keeps displaying "obtaining IP address". Never had a problem with hammerhead? Guessing it has something to do with the dchp client on the Xoom¿
Certainly not a big problem, and something I am more than happy to live with as is.
everything else working spot on. Using a UK wifi only!

[Q] Wifi doesn't work on ICS aurora 5.0 update 20

Hello.
First of all thanks dzo for an amazing ROM Updating to latest version I faced a couple of problems, with wifi. First i had ran ICS 2.0 or so for a long time since that was working great i didn't see the need to update again, but now checking the thread and seeing there's loads of updates and hotfixes i decided to go for it and update to the latest, 5.0 u20 version. I decided to clean-up first, so i reverted back to 2.3.5 official and re-rooted and installed CWM 5.5.0.4, then ICS aurora 5.0 experimental, booted it up to see it was working ( I got to the startup screen, but couldn't press any buttons as the touchscreen was not working, not sure why but i continued updating hoping it would fix) and then rebooted back to CWM, installed 5.0 update 20.. Everything working fine now, except once i try to connect to my WIFI. I insert the password like I would normally, but instead of getting the "connecting... receiving IP" etc. it doesn't say anything. I can just see my WIFI as available but not able to connect to it.
I didn't want to give up so easily, so I re-did everything, now after 5.0 experimental i installed update 2 to see if some of the hotfixes caused the problem. Yes indeed, with update 2 my touchscreen was working just fine and so was WIFI.
So here I am wondering, what could be the cause for not being able to connect to my WIFI and how would I be able to fix it? Or maybe just settle for one of the earlier hotfixes, but I would prefer to sort this thing out.
Thanks.
Got same thing but with me its on every rom.
I think its because of the GB update I did. Maybe it had an WIFI problem the one that I had

Maybe you should just do all wipes again and flash up20 again. If you really want to update, wait for a newer version and try again
Lol... Well i did restore my backup back to 2.3.5 original ROM, then update thru ALL of the updates but no luck.. Then once i was out in shops and found a public WIFI, decided to try to connect, and voilá, it connected... Now back at home i decided to look thru my router settings and switched the mode to 802.11b+g and instantly connected... So i dunno, but now it seems to work.

Had this issue since Dzo changed Aurora's kernel to 3.0.8. I don't know why but after Aurora 3.1 wi-fi can't connect to my network if it's not a b+g or just b. After I understood that the problem is in wi-fi mode on router everything went fine.
Update 21?
Good Day
Aurora update5.0 update20 wi-fi reboot . Where can i download update 21 to fix wi-fi reboot.
Thankyou

[Q] CM10.2 not connecting to home network

Hi XDA community. I am going to describe my problem, and see who else has the same issue/what remedies are possible.
I have been using CM10.1 Stable for a long time with no problems whatsoever.
Lately, i moved to CM10.2, when the problems started. My phone cant connect to my home network, but is ok with connecting to my gf's phone via wifi hotspot. I said wth i will do stock install 4.4. Then CM11 couldnt connect either.
Back to CM10.2, back to .84 radio (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227&highlight=radio), wipe data/cache/dalvik, phone unable to connect to WiFi network at home.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour have any recommendation as to what to look for?
I dont mind flashing stock 4.4 again, but i really got used to CM. I have to mention that another ROM based on CM10.2 works fine with wifi.
Any help for a fellow XDA'er?
Cheers!
