So it didn't work on any of the ROMs you tried?
Then try flashing the factory images. If it stays the same, then it might be caused by hardware.

WiFi Works on OTHER ROMS !
the problem seems to have happened after the kitkat update of thestock rom. on 4.2.2 and 4.3, i would flash miui v5 3.9 and wifi used to work just fine. after flashing from kitkat stock rom, the issue propped up on ALL miui roms. INCLUDING THE OLD ROM I FLASHED WHICH USED TO WORK FINE.

Have you tried flashing the 48 radio. As if you're baseband is 4.4 then maybe you're radio is incompatible with 4.2 radio, 48 radio you need think. Might be wrong check the radio thread.

Settings / about phone then the last 2 numbers on the baseband will tell you the radio installed

Same Problem here as well..Need some solution badly.. :/
I think you have to restore it to stock rom using seus, re root the phone and install a clean custom ROM. you have to do full wipe, before installing the ROM not after. Hope it helps.

[Q] N4 on Paranoid Android : Camera not working, no signal, doesn't detect sim

So I just Installed PA 3.99.1-RC1-20130914 and PA_GApps-20131018
It's strange to see that there was no Google Chrome by default along with the following issues :
- Camera is not working - on opening the app it simply says Can't connect to camera.
- There is no signal and on searching for networks, it asks for sim.
- Also the PA_OTA app says unable to check for updates, though I'm able to download apps.
Did you come from 4.2? Did you flash the new radio?

Coming from 4.3 . I hadn't flashed it earlier, did just now, Doing factory reset and reinstalling PA and GApps. Hope it helps.
Got stock image and flashed it to make sure everything is latest, flashed PA again but same issues.
Can it be because I'm using 3.99.1 ?
Back to stock for now. Need the SIM to work atleast.

[Q] Only getting 1.5mb internet speeds on 12mb

Hi,
This is an odd one.
I get 12mb download speeds on my home wifi if i do a test from my laptop or girlfriends iphone. If I do the test on my Nexus i only get about 1.5mb.
If I reboot the router (Draytek) I get the full 12mb again for a few hours then it drops right back down to 1.5mb.
Now I know you are all thinking straight away its the router but I have recently changed this from a Linksy router to the draytek and had the same problem with that one, so it would appear it is my Nexus.
I am running PA with the latest Kernal for it.
Any ideas or help?

In "About Phone" look for baseband (a.k.a. radio) version. But be careful, if you are using Jelly Bean ROM, your radio should be 0.84. If KitKat ROM, then the radio should be .97 or .98. Don't flash 97 or 98 on Jelly Bean ROM !!!

In "About Phone" look for "Android Version" if it's below 4.4 then you are on Jelly Bean (e.g., 4.3 or 4.2). I don't use PA ROM so I don't know which version currently for PA.

Have you tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery? Also did you test your phone in different area because it depends on where you are compared to the cell signal tower.

I found this information on Google's support forum:
I can hereby confirm that flashing back the radio from M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.84 (default for 4.3) to M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.48 (default for 4.2.2), whilst keeping the rest of 4.3, did NOT fix the wifi speed and connectivity problems on my phone.
I then proceeded to downgrade completely to 4.2.2 using the Google-supplied factory images, and I'm now getting 44 Mbit/s down and 5 Mbit/s up via 802.11n, where on 4.3 with either of the two radios, I couldn't even reliably finish the test (it would stop halfway, with the download speed estimated at 7 Mbit/s). Besides that, I've now been able to update tons of apps from Play, where with 4.3 this was not possible with either of the radios.
Just in case someone finds this, the version of Android on this Nexus 4 causing endless wifi problems is:
* Android 4.3
* baseband M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.84
* kernel 3.4.0-perf-gf43c3d9, 2013-06-17
* build number JWR66V
The version working well is:
* Android 4.2.2
* baseband M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.48
* kernel 3.4.0-perf-g7ce11cd, 2013-01-29
* build number JDQ39
You should use a different radio. I'd recommend the hybrid radios 33/84. Uses .33 radio for connections such as WiFi and data, whereas .84 radio is used for calls.

I am going to give you the best info you're likely going to get as I suffer the same problem.
Don't reset you're rooter switch wifi on and off on the phone as it achieves the same results.
After a while of doing this it will improve the duration it locks on to fast wifi.
Also I think relocking the bootloader helps WHY I haven't a clue.
All I know is I have the same problem with the newest and fastest wifi available in my area and after trying everything flashable, settings in wifi and even patching my wifi from roms with my wifi working the results are.
1 go back to a stock 4.3 rom.
2 try what I suggested.

To add to the above I don't know if its 4g capabilities being added to roms as I have tried everything but thats what I am looking at now even though I have flashed multiple radios.

Just asking, but are you sure you didn't confuse MByte/s with Mbit/s? (Notice the lower and upper case B )
It would make sense as 12Mbit/s are 1.5MByte/s.
Ok guys, just so you know, Radio/Baseband has nothing to do with your WiFi connectivity or the transfers speeds you are getting on WiFi. All WiFi modules, drivers are present in the Kernel and NOT the modem/baseband. Hope this gives you clarity and prevent waste of your time fiddling with the modem to solve WiFi issues!!

Flashed enough radio basebands and pulled enough files from the system to know where both live. I am talking about interference something causing the wifi to drop suddenly as if the network is strangled (but its not) there's a few phones that suffer the same problems as I have read all there posts.
It's something causing it to drop turning it on and off helps for a short time in my case about 3mins tops.
It could be anything I just find it a little strange that on a custom rom any soap ,cm and custom stocks this happens but not on a Google image. So something strange is happening who knows. Just wish I did.

Is Nexus 4 getting wireless speed over 2.4mb/s?
This is the maximum that I can see at transferring of files to PC on same network.
I can't have it locked over 54mbps at settings of wireless.

[Q] Mobile data problems with my Nexus 4 radio in KitKat

Ever since I upgraded to KitKat, I started to have problems with my mobile data connection.
Usually it works, but every once in a while (usually after I leave a wifi connection) it fails to connect. You can see the H on top of the mobile signal strength appearing intermittently (tries to connect, but disappears after a while. It repeats several times, but doesn't connect). When this happens, I have to reboot my phone in order for it to work (turning on and off airplane mode doesn't solve this).
I am currently using 4.4.2 with Franco Kernel (the problem also happens with stock kernel) and Davik. I'm currently using the Nexus 5 Experience rom (I was also having this problem with the stock rom.
My mobile connection worked perfectly up to 4.3. Did anyone else face or is facing this problem? Does anyone know what I could do in order to solve this problem?
Similar problem on 4.4.2. My 3G data disconnects every time when i'm not using it. I have to turn it on/off several times to get it connected back. It's not carrier problem because data doesn't drop on my other device with the same network. I'm on complete stock. In fact, just bought this phone a week ago. I googled this problem and it seems many users have this problem. I couldn't find the solution. If anyone have a solution on this issue please let us know. Thanks
You're using the latest radio?
Go to system settings - about phone - what does it say under baseband?
The newest radio should end in .98, if you're still on .84 or earlier then download the package and flash it, I'll look for the link ..

You can flash the zip in a custom recovery or use fastboot. Do not try to flash using stock recovery.
So, after struggling with the problem for a while, I decided to try flashing a custom ROM. I decided to try the CyanogenMod 11 nightlies.
The radio problems seem to be gone so far, and the rom seems to be pretty stable (even though it's a nightly).
I suggest who is having similar problems to give it a shot.
