[Q] WiFi Error, overwrite modules to fix???

Hi guys,
For a few days I have strange problem with my Bangsters 1.2 build - every time I reboot, my WiFi doesn't work. I have to copy modules from the PC, and without rebooting restart WiFi connection.
Anyone had similar issue?

I've gt a similar problem, but I've had it with all the builds - Whenever I start up android, I have to go to settings, and enable wifi otherwise it shows up with an error. I don't ave to copy over the wifi modules each time though.

Cannot find solution to connect to hidden 802.1x network :(

Hi!
I Cannot find solution to connect to company's hidden Wifi 802.1x network
I tried almost anything to make it work .... but without success
I have had various wpa_supplicant bin files.
I have edited 100x wpa_supplicant.conf file.
I was reading forums with "SOLVED" solutions ... for other phones ... but cannot find solution to work on Huawei IDEOS X5 U8800.
I also have tried it with various ROMs: MIUI 1.8.x and 1.9.x, VOID, B135, B136,B160, cm7-100911, Oxygen ...
But every time with no success ...
Hints:
a) All other colleagues connect without problem (they have HTCs, Samsung Galaxy S I,II, iPhones 3,4 ...) while my friend and i cannot connect
b) I connect to my home Wifi (WPA/PSK) without a problem!
Anyone have similar problem?
BTW: MY wpa_supplicant.conf file looks like:
ctrl_interface=wlan0
update_config=1
network={
ssid="mySSID"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
group=WEP104 WEP40
auth_alg=OPEN SHARED
eap=PEAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="zzzzzz"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
Brgds,
S.
HELPPPPP

Have had sporadic issues myself, and found that setting ap_scan=2 in /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf was helpful but not flawless. I reverted back to a CWM of MIUI 1.8.19 which I recalled seemed to connect without issues. On reviewing the wpa_supplicant.conf files in system and data, I noticed that the ctrl_interface was different.
ctrl_interface=DIR=/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant GROUP=system
rather than ctrl_interface=wlan0
I haven't yet tried moving back to the latest version of MIUI to test these changes, but will do so when I get the time.
Modify below files and ensure permissions dont change
Both /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
and /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
also create a new folder wpa_supplicant in /data/misc/wifi/
mkdir /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant -m 750

The control interface is changed so that it works with other versions of wpa_supplicant. If you change it to the way it was in the older Miui then wifi won't work at all.
If it never worked (even on stock) then the issue probably isn't with wpa supplicant, and could be a problem with the wifi driver, or the hardware itself. This really needs someone who knows what they're doing and access to a hidden 802.1x network to look into it.

Was there a driver change between 1.8.19 and later MIUI versions? The supplicant seems like the same version (v 0.6.10)?
On returning to 1.8.19 have had 3 days without issues. When on 1.9.30 the change to ap_scan=2 definitely improved and seemed to make a connection on reboot flawless, but reconnection from sleep was sporadic (probably <30%). Watching wpa_cli output when waking phone from screen off on 1.9.30 showed a failed connection attempt, and then a series of timed scans (CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS) - these continued after CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED (something that didn't occur after toggling wifi on/off/on and connecting).

Thanks for you feedback, that really helps. Even though the version number is the same they aren't the same file.
I'll get in contact with you via pm to try and sort this out.

Thanks guys for trying!
So there is no solution yet?

Any news ?
Thanks!

Any news ?
I have same problem with that.

I also have the same problem, and looking for a solution. I am using Redmi 4a MIUI 8.2.6.0

WiFi Passwords Keep Forgetting

Is anyone having issues with WIFI passwords not being remembered?
After updating to MJ4, passwords to wifi have to be reentered every time to connect.

Yea same here but it was happening on mine prior as well. Guess the last update didn't help that.

I have seen that others are having the same issue that I am having where my phone forgets WiFi settings after every reboot since MJ4 update. What is the fix for this?
Thanks

WiFi problems?
Try this:
Due to "securestorage" being set to true in build.prop, changes to the ROM or kernel that aren't reflected in the ss_id file in /system/etc/secure_storage/.system.bin.wpa_supplicant/ can cause issues with WiFi among other things. You can set this to false yourself, or simply flash the zip file below.
Download: Set Secure Storage to False
For those that prefer to do it manually, simply change this line ro.securestorage.support=true to false in /system/build.prop.

Why was [ ro.securestorage.support=true] set to true? --Is this by ROM's default?
What functionality do we lose once it's set to "false"?

Thanks for the solution. Unfortunately I'm not rooted yet. But with all the problems I'm having I might just root it to load a custom rom

Had this problem for months and solved it just now by deleting some old networks from the list of remembered networks. It seems that the problem was due to exceeding the number of networks kept in memory. Hope this helps someone, I have not seen this suggestion anywhere.

Please help! Unable to connect to Wifi.

Okay so I have a galaxy s4 which happens to enjoy wifi a few days ago. Suddenly, I cannot connect to my wifi network and it always tries to connect but just doesn't push through. I already did the reset thing, and I also reset my router a couple of times and still no luck. Can anyone please help?

Hi,
What Type of S4?
What rom?
Any updates lately?

See if a app in the play store will help. It's called "wifi fixer"

Are you root ?
Check this:
Go to /system
Open the built.prop
search for ro.securestorage.support
If it says true , change to false
Save and reboot

Hi,
did you try to install wifi connections from zero ?
In your configured wifi networks , enterr the wifi settings by pressing for a few seconds , select modify network config then select show advanced options and disable proxy.

Proxy is disabled by default. I also tried turning off wifi power saving mode. Still nada.

[Q] VERY Strange WIFI Issue

OK i seem to have this extremely bizzare wifi issue.
I can connect to wifi access points fine, if i turn off wifi and turn it back on i am unable to auto connect and have to re-enter credentials for it to connect. Before doing so i checked my wifi ap to see if my ap were listed and they were not.
If i re-enter everything is fine but having to do this to wifi ap is annoying. After i have entered and check the wifi ap files i can see the credentials are saved etc.
If i do not re-enter the credentials and restart the phone with wifi enabled it connects to AP fine.
If i leave wifi connected and connect to to wifi aps that require certs its fine also without the need to re-enter creds.
At first i thought maybe i had a corruption in the wifi config files but i dont see any, no duplicate aps at all, no fancy characters i can see.
Does anyone have any thoughts as my wifi config with aps is many years old and has a massive amount of APs listed.
It doesnt matter what ROM i try as soon as i restore all my APs the issues start, is there a way to bulk export, wipe wifi aps and re-import them all again?
Do wifi aps with spaces in or length cause issues with 5.1.1?

1 root ur phone if you are unrooted 2 download any build prop editor from playstore 3 change this line ro.securestorage.support=true to false in /system/build.prop 4 if it doesnt work try a different build prop editor cz the changes might not be sticking 5) hit the thanks button if it helped
