hi! i've just updated my phone from cm7 beta5.1 to beta 6, and now it can't seem to find any wifi network, nor can connect to a manually added one. is that normal, do any of you guys experience the same? pls help me!
Did you try to clear the cache and dalvik cache?
yeah, but no luck... my home network doesn't even show, and it finds some other networks but with lowest signal strenght (there's nothing wrong with my home network, everything else is working fine...)
pls guys, help me, i'm going crazy here... wifi is vital, can't do much without it!
Hi,
First -> Post in the CM7 Rom Thread for Bugs and report it in the github
Second -> Try "FXR WiFi Fixer" from the Market, that worked for me!
Regards
If you use 802.11n network on your wireless router, try to set it to 802.11g to test if it can connect. Is it WPA/WPA2 PSK?
thx, but it didn't work for me but i reported the bug, hope someone'll help
the router is set to g, not n, and yeah, it's wpa 2 psk.
try to backup then put a clean sbf
tried that, reflashed the kernel, then installed cm7 again, but now after i choose 2nd-init as default boot it shows a blank screen with the backlight on, and nothing happens... wtf is going on?!
okay, solved, had to set the regulatory domain to 14 channels in advanced settings, worked like a charm thanks to all of you who tried to help!
mine just got this problem tonight..
its happen when i try to connect to an open network..
then after that my wifi kinda dead already,
cant see any network at all
tried use channel 14 as TS said. but no luck.
any more help pls,
my phone almost useless rite now without wifi..
did you try to add a network manually? and did it work without problems before cm7? try wiping cache first, then if nothing changes, factory reset (wiping data)!

sorry to bring back this old thread. i had this problem after my daughter updated her router and drove me crazy wondering why my defy now won't even see her wifi network
found out, after 2 days of frustration, her netgear nighthawk r7000 router's 2.4ghz signal on auto had selected channel 12 or 13 (i didn't verify which one) and that's why. then i found out even after i change the regulatory domain to 13 channels, it default back to 11 channels upon rebooting the phone!!! how crazy!!!???
since europe is using 13 channels, why are these roms, made in europe by european, defaults to 11 channels!!!??? doesn't make sense at all. don't you europeans use channel 12 and 13?
hope some developers here can provide an answer. i really hope they change all their roms to 14 channels so we don't have this problem again.....
-end of rant-
I am running cm7 ver. 7.0.3-encore of my sd card. And I am having some issue with my nook color since this moring.
When I turned on wifi it didn't show the little wifi icon in the status bar, so I checked in the wireless & networks settings, it showed that the wifi was scanning. And this is where it stuck.
I turned on and off the Airplne Mode, it started working again after that. I even used it for some time.
But now when I tried connecting wifi again on my NC it showing the same problem i.e. stuck in scanning mode without the little wifi icon.
I tried agin with the Airplane Mode but this time it did not work.
I remove the sd card and boot to stock, even in stock it does not connect to the wifi. The wifi shows as enabled but it cannot connect to my home network.
I looked noline but cant find any solutions specific to my problem. Is anyone having such a problem with their wifi on NC??
FYI the bluetooth is working so i guess its more of a software issue than a hardware one, but i could be wrong.
what should i do to fix this problem??
Try standing right next to a wifi router and see if you get anything. There's a possibility that there's something wrong with the antenna.
Go into the wifi settings and delete all of the access points. Reboot and try again.

this worked perfectly.... wifi is working from both the systems i.e. stock and sd card cm7...
just for my knowledge... y did this happen??
I sometimes have to go through the steps of deleting my access point. I just always assumed it was my crap router or at the least a mix of nook and my crap router.
ok this is getting irritating... it worked for 2 days... this is crap...
now its not working... same problem... no wifi icon and stays in scanning mode for sometime...
repeating the previous fix does not work...
why is this happening???
Try upgrading to the latest nightly and then fix permissions in rom manager.

Hello Guys,
last night I was playing with GDX v017 and then when I turned on the WIFI it didn't worked ...
so I tried Full WIPE, install hotfix from GDX v014, and reinstalled the ROM Full Wipe
about 100 Times BUT No LUCK ..............
So in the end I Restored My Original 2.1 ROM with xRecovery
but here the worse the WIFI Was Broken too WTH, yes I cannot use my WIFI any more when I turn it on nothing happens
then when trying access the wifi settings the phone stuck 4 a while then reboot
then I cannot turn it off any more and it's On always but Unable to search for networks and now Bt can't be on any more, and when I turn on debugging mode the phone stops and the reset too.
I tried:
1- Restore 2.1 and Full WIPE with xRrec
2- Restore 2.1 and Full WIPE with CWM
3- even I used Flash tool and E15i android 2.1.1 http://www.multiupload.com/VKNI6Q6ET5 (2.1.1.C.0.0 latest firmware)
4- Using SE PCC to repair ..... No luck with any
5- With flash tool I flashed this: (X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf) then used SEUS to repair and it updated my phone but nothing happened
6- reinstalled GDX 017 then used SEUS ........... still nothing!
it's not working Just like the old Problem
1- Cannot find any network or connect
2- cannot access the wifi settings
3- cannot turn it of
4- when try 2 access WIFI Settings the phone Reboot
Please I need Help
what to do ??
Thanks in advance
With seus it should work! Try to format sd card, then via seus reflash to stock android and try wifi, if its work then root your phone and try anything else.

I'm really Sorry but I Need my phone back to work as it was
And I'll not play with Custom ROMs again NEVER EVER
THANKS IN ADVANCE
If your phone is new, then flash back original firm (2.1), then take it back to the store you bought it. It's maybe NOT a problem about custom Roms, but a hardware issue. So of you take back like its original and so, they'll inspect it for free (guarantee).

Unfortunately, it seems like real big problem !!!
I mean after all what I did still the same
1- now wifi, (and bluetooth now), BT cannot be turned ON at all, and wifi give "Unable to search ... " and give popup to force close dialog then whatever I Did the phone will reset
2- when turn wifi on cannot turn it off again ever
3- when accessing the Wireless settings, the phone freeze then (ask to force close or just restart).
4- when trying to enable debug mode also freeze but for sure it will restart.
5- tried to reinstall many custom roms (GB v0.23b, GDX 0.13, GDX 0.17[again]) then return to 2.1 USING SEUS again to restore original 2.1 BUT ALL NOT WORKS
(I shouldn't play with custom roms, now i realized that is 2.1 was good enough to me )
and I forgot to tell I got no guarantee on HARDWARE
it seems that my phone gone
anyway, really, thanks a lot 4 asking and helping guys!
hope me goodluck
Good News (maybe)
today I installed Hachdroid froyo 0.25
and turned on the wifi ..... it worked ............. yes, and the started searching for Networks .... and found one
Here when I tried to connect it after entering the PW every thing OK (Thanks GOD )
last thing saved with the PW Now when push Connect the phone freezes the ask to force close the wifi settings.
so it's not hardware problem ... right?
After spending about 4-5 days/nights by searching about this stupid problem
I got better Idea about what the hell happens.
1- this problem happened to many many guys with android OS.
(Just Google "Unable to start/search wifi android" and count....... damn)
2- the bad news almost 95% of people whom got this sh*t couldn't solve the prb.
(the other "5%" had luck by the grantee and replaced the phone or simply forgot that there phones got WIFI ).
As I understood that this problem is DRIVER ISSUES
Hi, I installed GingerDX v17 2 days back into my Xperia X8i. This ROM is working fantastic and with all function. One problem I found that my phone can not connect with Adhoc Wifi connection with my laptop. When I try to connect the cell tries for 5 to 8 mins and reboots automatically. But with my Wifi router it has no problem. Can some one help me?

I also have a WiFi problem!
I can’t get WiFi to work. Activating it in settings and it’s activated for around 10 sec then it is closing down (the green “check” is there for around 10 sec).
I can’t scan for WiFi networks. No networks is showen.
I use stock kernel and DingerDX V017 release. Other things works grate! Thanks!
as you can see in my thread I tried every thing I could do... but nothing works
finally, the last tow reasons that cuzed this :
1- Hardware prb but wifi works sometimes (maybe after 5days without phone usage if you tried WIFI it will works for about 15Min)
2- it's driver prob in terminal type: "ifconfig tiwlan0" it should give some lines or just said "no such device".
but no one found any solution for this
Just try google "unable to start Wi-Fi Android" you'll understand what I'm saying. Damn
i Read the whole Thread ..
Dude i really know how this thing feels ..
Yes i know it's painful :/ !
If there's no other way 2 Fix it at home
u just have 2 give it to some1 who can actually Fix it ..
like SE .. Or the store it self ..
it doesn't matter how much the amount of money u're gonna pay..
u just save your phone
..
i wish i could help u !
Good luck Bro

I got my wifi to work! Tried with reinstalling V017 but without success.
Then I put in V013 and then the WiFi started to worke. Then I could run in V017 and with WiFi still working!
What is the difference between the three (99Tweaks, 99Xperimental, 99XTweaks) tweaks in the init.d package?
UPDATE - Problem sorted via philos64 thread at the top...
Should've tried that 1st, but posted here hoping someone would confirm that was the route to take, as it wasn't actually bricked... Never mind, all done..
Why??? Was out earlier so I turned my wi-fi off and my mobile on and everything was working fine..
When I got home, I turned the mobile off and tried to turn wifi back on, but it is hanging on 'Turning wifi On.'
Tried rebooted the tablet a few times and rebooting the router, (BT HomeHub 3), but still the same problem.
This N7 is rooted and running 4.2.2.
When I look at the Advanced Wifi the MAC and IP address are unavailable.
When I go into Wifi Analyzer it says the wifi needs to be turned on and tries but gets same hang and retries...
On the left of the analyzer it shows my Wifi ID with a mac address underneath with a yellow triangle and 'No Signal!' in red.
The wifi from the router is working as my phone is connected via wifi.
Any ideas please people ???
:crying:
going for the post with the most views and zero replies is not on my bucket list... So I'm going to reply to myself..
An Update....
The problem is still there, so I went into bootloader - recovery mode....Then I went into Android system Recovery.
I selected cache then wipe dta/factory reset.. Reboot then starts tablet as new with the unlocked symbol, then goes through the initial setup. Select language, then it does Select wifi and displays 'Turning on wifi'.. Hung...
Would flashing it via Nexus root toolkit sort out then problem... If so, any clues what flash and how...
If it wouldn't fix it... Is the tablet now bricked??
Please answer someone if you know..
Cheers
There have been several posts about wi-fi problems if the outer shell of the N7 is separated and not fully locked in. A loose or separated shell can cause a disconnect in the wi-fi antenna. Check for any separation and maybe squeeze the front and back together all the way around the outer edge.
I did read them and a lot of other threads but they were mainly to do with wi-fi looping and not connecting.... I couldn't find any other post regarding just 'turning it on'.... And seeing as it's sorted with just a flash of the stock rom, I can safely assume this problem had nothing to do with hardware...
Hence why I was surprised I was the only 1 with this 'type' of prob.... (but I didn't read every post so I may have missed one).
Same problem too

im experiencing the same thing. im using Samsung galaxy S4 i9505 LTE and on android 4.3/ rooted Baseband i9505XXUEMJ5. it happened when i was trying to erase all the bloatware on my phone using Trulyclean by schoolsux. after i flashed the script i started having this problem.so far ive tried to do a factory reset by using custom recovery, tried to download the modem fix and flashed it through odin and do the advanced settings on wifi and uncheck the auto network switch. The problem that i have is yes it say "connecting" for 2-3 minutes then it gives you a list of possible wifi connections and then you connect. another 2-3 minutes then it wont connect. repeat the steps and now i can connect, then if you turn off the wifi you will have to go through the whole process again. it doesnt save any wifi connections you have connected before. there are 2 other ways i havnt tried yet and that is to flash a different kernel. a custom kernel and reflashing my phone again with the android 4.3 then root:laugh: for the nth time already:fingers-crossed:

i have same issue with htc one x, my wifi doesn't wan't to turn on. it stuck on "turning on...", i tried to flash different roms, etc, now i think about flashing kernel, did you do that? did it help?
Same problem on N4
Have had the exact same problem not once but twice. One day it works perfectly fine. Next day, it just stops at turning on process.
On my N4 the 4.2 was working fine. Along comes the 4.3 OTA update and the wifi stops working. Does not startup or show the mac addr either.
Did factory reset, wipe cache and even reflash binary from google stock images. No relief.
One day, the wife using gmaps started the gps location service and pop the wifi started,
Now after the 4.4 OTA all seemed to work well till yesterday and pop the wifi breaks down. the earlier trick of gmaps does not seem to work. I think one of the google apps update is breaking this.
After rebooting also, the device seems to remember the wifi state and tries to read the previous history and restore for the startup. And that is killing.
Any idea how to debug this or to wipe the wifi logs or to manually start the wifi/bluetooth radio.. ya athe bluetooth is also stuck.
Thanks guys in advance

Hi Can you please send a link for the solution? i am still stuck with "wifi turning on" screen and cant seem to bypass it. No matter what Stock image i flash through Wug Toolkit.
i have got the same wifi errorrigictsi vanished
initially i had loaded my explorer with fly rom and everything waas working except the internal memory. i'm not even able to download at least an app and then i tried bulletsense rom for increasing the internal memory of my explorer. it's successful, and the memory increased. From there onwards, the problem started. the wifi first said error... but after reboot, it's all the time saying "turning on"..
by typing "ifconfing twlan0" it said no devices found... so i thought it might be some driver error. coueld any one port some other drivers to the below rom so that i can have both internal memory and wifi...
link to bulletsense rom ///d-h.st/xFr//// ( add https before /xxxx/)
here is a screenshot of it...///bit.ly/MMSeam///

Hey guys.. I faced similar issue in my AMOI 820 based Indian local device Micromax (rooted + custom kernal)
I fixed this stuck wifi problem by uninstalling Google apps in system by removing them using Titanium back up + and again installing them from playstore if needed.. Hangouts(in my case) if it's a system app after getting updated is the culprit .. Try removing it and reboot and test it yourself..
guess it working now!!
I was going crazy about this stuck wifi issue!!
I tried everything!! I found on the advance panel on the wifi
That the MAC address and the IP address is unavailble.
After many tries i think i fixed it!! Using:
Busybox and MacMan
MacMan changed my MAC address and now the wifi is no longer stuck!!!! Hope it will help you too. Peace
