Wi-Fi is using similar memory controller as SD card. I had an issue where my SD got corrupted and Wi-Fi did not turn on because of it aswell. So try removing/replugging the SD card (and restart afterwards).
Ty for your answer blefish, i try what u do and try with another SD card, and i put my SD to another device. and i can´t turn on wifi, but my friend phone´s works well.
UPDATE: i made a downgrade to 2.2.2 froyo and WiFi Works Well.. any hint to upgrade my phone? whitout lose WiFi?¡
]when you're on ICS do you have an IMEI number? If not your phone is screwed on any ROM higher than GingerBread. Mine is the same. It just cycles through the connecting cycle on and off. I've even tried forcing an IMEI number through a program but it didn't change anything.
EDIT: nevermind finally after hours and hours of trying to revive this phone I got my IMEI back and wifi working. Damn it took ages to figure out.
Flashed to Official Gingerbread, then done the steps of retoring my IMEI number which is listed behind my battery. I used DFS tools for this and a post that tells you how to access the project setting menu to enable the settings. Then I wrote my IMEI number back on my phone, then rooted it and installed a custom recovery. Then from there installed Aurora ICS and used another post here to write my Mac address found behind my battery using Terminal Emulator. And bam! my wifi isnt stuck in a loop trying to connect anymore.
I got an IMEI number but the wifi dosent work, do I need to simply use TWRP to get official? then go back?

Hello.
I'm really lost with my phone at the moment. I've tried to upgrade to several custom ROMs, but somehow there's always a thing that isn't working. I've followed the guides on this forum, but it looks like I got lost somewhere in the process and I did something wrong, since there are hundreds of topics and loads of information everywhere.
So, I'd really appreciate it if someone can tell me EXACTLY what to do to get my phone to a stable custom ROM (pref CM, but Aurora looks nice as well) from my current phone's condition.
Here are two screenshots from my phone's Settings-About phone menu.

The current situation is, that my wifi is not working at all when I enter my simcard, then there's random reboots, it kind of works stable only if I have it plugged in pc(charging), etc.
My current ClockworkMod Recovery version is v6.0.3.3
If possible please add links to stuff that I should work on, Step by step!
Edit: Forgot to mention that I also get the "SIM network unlock PIN" message after I enter SIM PIN. sigh*
Thank you.

Looks like you are currenty using TMC by forumber2. I instelled and removed it because I found Aurora SP (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295318), which is stable and has a goood battery backup. You can try that.
As long as SIM lock is concerned you can use DFS (http://cdmatool.com/) to unlock the SIM.
I guess you are using the carrier locked phone.
Good luck.

Okay, thanks for the first reply. I'll try to install this ROM, but does that mean that I have to install some official Android version first? It doesn't say anything in that topic, but for some ROMs it's mentioned, and usualy the added links are broken, etc.
And about the SIM lock, I don't know if it was a misunderstanding, or I'm missing something from that website. My SIM isn't locked, but it looks like that my Network adapter is, or however should i call this, I don't have the phone with me atm to exactly describe it, but still. I get the message that i should enter a PIN for my network something, not for SIM unlock.
Is this resolved with installing a new ROM, or do I still need to do something else about it?
Please clarify

I don't think so. I installed it over Lewa ROM. It installs its own kernel, so there is no such dependency.
Just take the backup using recovery to be on safe side.

Did you purchase the phone from specific service provider?
Does it ask for pin when you try to insert another SIM card?
Did you manually set some PIN/PUK code?

Yes I did purchase my phone from a service provider. I didn't have a chance to try another SIM card, but, I've installed a 2.3.5 android version now, and the system is stable, at least I'm fine with that, but the WIFI and bluetooth aren't working. For wireless it says Error when I try to enable it, and bluetooth simply isn't enabling, without giving me any errors.
And no I did not change any PIN/PUK code settings.
At least the phone is working now, but I really have to get the WIFI working, any ideas?
"kernel" - 2.6.35.7-perf

I guess this localhost thing has something to do with it? But I've no idea about those things, on phones at least.
your emei is correct?
if you have used custom partitions you could have lost your emei.
go to defenitions and see if your emei is correct.
and have you tried to install an official rom again and see if everything is working?

I've checked the IMEI, it's the same as on the back of my phone. It also says "Wi-Fi MAC address / Bluetooth address - Unavailable".
I'll try to install fresh rom later today again. Should I install the same version as I did the last time (2.3.5), or some other one?

if your wifi and your Bluetooth are closed it will say this... if you open them it will show the addresses as normal...

What do you mean open them? I can't enable either of them, as I described in one of my previous posts, I get error trying to enable WiFi, and as for bluetooth, nothing happens.
Hello guys I need your help, Yesterday I was flashing MIUI ROM for my SM-N900W8 and it was not succesful, so I tried to restore the backup I did before flashing, but the problems started when TWRP did not allowed me to restore, it said Fail... after that I installed the Stock Rom from Odin and everything went ok until I was configuring the phone and when I was willing to connect to my wifi it appeared an error "Unfortunately Remote controls stopped" and the wifi turned to grey and I was not able to use it...
I flashed another stock rom (with operator) and the same issue, searching in the web I was a little deep about knowing what was happening and I realized my Serial Number changed, My IMEI is ok, but the problem persist. I need your help about this and restoring back again my phone. Thanks a lot
me too

I think MIUI messed my phone up too!
My phone stopped radio function. WIFI works fine, but my network isnt being picked up at all. The SIM works though. It saves and deletes contacts properly, but has no signal.
I have been scouring the internet looking for radio images and RUU's. Tried the RUU for my HTC One S, it downgraded my radio hboot...everything to an earlier stock version. Still nothing works.
it changed my device serial number into chinese characters. my phone number is displayed correctly under phone identity.
Anyone have a soloution to this??

In fact the S/N can easily be changed if your phone was rooted. But it is not relating to the wifi issue.
So you may have to try another firmware or another baseband.
Hey guys! yesterday I just downgraded my device(i9500) from stock lollipop to cm11 and what I realized was that the network signals were gone. Although phone is detecting sim card as I'm able to see all the saved contacts even I am not signed-in with gmail account. I tried restoring the EFS I made when I was on a custom touchwiz lollipop ROM but I think there's something wrong with that backup as that didn't work for me. I know simply flashing the firmware using ODIN would solve my problem but I haven't got internet connection these days neither time as my exams are going on. I've only got 20MB of data to use everyday. So, I can't download firmware as its size ranges in GB's.
I've installed back stock ROM but problem didn't solve. The problem isn't with IMEI as I'm able too see it. Instead of the network name on the status bar when in lock screen , I'm seeing EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY message
Please help me. Better send me the backup of EFS! Thanks in advance
Could be that your SIM tray broke and it simply coincided with the ROM flash.
so my nexus 5 screen is completly f***ed up so i had no choice but to switch again to my old i9500 galaxy s4
i didn't used it in a long time and it had a custom rom & root on it and all that good stuff
but when i inserted my sim (which is a new sim btw & worked flawlessly on my nexus 5) i just dont seem to get any reception & when i touch "Mobile networks" option in the settings i get "Insert SIM card to access network services" needless to say that the sim card are obviously inside my phone
i tried so much diffrent methods that i found online & on this forum which non worked unfortunately
tried installing a couple new modems trough odin which non worked
also tried to give premissions to the efs folder & change owner & it didnt worked
i also switched like 2 roms which now im on a stock 4.3 & i wiped all data but i still have the same problem
i hope someone here maybe will know how to fix this S***ty problem...
please if you have any idea id love to hear it
Flash your phone with the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com and retry.

Hi bro first of all thanks for helping me out here but i tried to download a firmware from the site you gave me & its downloading at 15kbps!! It will take too much time to download...
is there any other source i can download it?
+ can you please explain what will be different from the stock 4.3 rom i installed?
Thanks again for helping out, Much appreciated!!
You should flash the latest 5.01 rom, not 4.3.
Try searching for the rom on updato.com.

didnt work unfortunately
i installed this rom : http://updato.com./firmware-archive-select-model?record=BF01B00E1F3711E6949E0CC47A44B7B2 (im from israel)
and i get the same exact problem
also im not 100% sure but i remember i checked the efs folder and it was empty...
am i f***ed or is there still hope?
i have the imei number on the sticker under the battery btw if that helps
Did you flash anything else that could have caused the loss of imei?
The imei should be able to be injected by a cell repair shop via jtag.
Hi everyone,
I've been having a problem since yesterday morning. Everything seemed to be fine with my phone before I flashed a custom rom. I was using at the moment MSM Xtended and I flashed the latest version of CrDroid. After flashing that other custom rom and booting, my phone had no network signal. All it reads on the status bar after that is just "No service". Of course, I removed the SIM card and reinserted it many times but that did nothing.
I've already tried flashing another rom (the latest AICP rom) and even going back to the one I was using at the beginning, but still nothing. I even tried reflashing the NON-HLOS.bin file and erasing modemst1 and modemst2, but it didn't do anything either. I also tried flashing this deodexed stock rom and booting. Interestingly, that kind of fixed the problem, since it recovered its network functionality. However, after reflashing an Oreo custom rom, it loses it again (actually, I've done that a few times today, but the last time I tried flashing the stock rom, for some reason it didn't fix it anymore). I don't know if in this case it's worth mentioning it, but I've tried checking my IMEI on both, custom roms and stock rom, and it's never been 0 at any moment.
TL;DR: My phone lost its network signal after flashing a new custom rom and I have no idea why. If anyone could somehow help me, I'd be really, really grateful.
I have had this happen so many times it is not crazy LOL. The best you can do is find a rom that it happens the least. For me it has been AOSP extended. Signal has been great. It is a bug that I dont think the devs even thought would happen with 8.1 roms. It will happen to everyone at some point if we stay on these 8.1 roms i guess until we get a workable 8.1 stock rom. There will be those who chime in saying it nevver happen to them but it will eventually.
Well, it's nice to know I'm not actually the only one then, I guess. But is there nothing I can do? Since I can't seem to get it fixed even by flashing the stock ROM anymore and flashing AOSP extended didn't seem to help at all either
I know brother there is no rhyme or reason it just happens. I am hoping when 8.1 stock comes out for us there will be a new batch of 8.1 custom roms without this problem. Right now i am on extended and havent had any signal problems for a few weeks so who knows.

Okay. Luckily enough, Oreo stock ROM doesn't look like it's gonna take too much more to arrive... Or so I hope, at least. Thanks
I was using LinageOs and it was working great. Then I decided to install DolbyAtmos and for that I flashed Magisk . Suddenly i had no network but my sim cards were detected , IMEI was there but no network on either sim whatsoever. I tried reflashing the LinageOs and PixelExperience ROM but none worked. So I tried flashing(ADB) the stock firmware only to lose my IMEI . After reading this post I tried Debloated ROM and my network was back. I should have stopped at that point but I tried to return back to stock again and lost IMEI again and now I have tried Dbloated,LineageOs , PixelExperience , AOSP Extended , but none helped me getting back network . Now I am stuck with this phone with no network , I had a backupp of my system before I flashed Oreo ROMs (with EFS) so I can get IMEI back but no network. This phone was my daily driver and now I have no idea what to do.

Everything you said is exactly as if I had written it. I did all of that and now I'm exactly in the same position. No idea how to fix it yet. Still, if you managed to find a solution somehow, please write a reply on this thread again

No success yet , but read on some posts that different baseband could be an issue.
Solution I've tried and worked 100 %
Hi bodies,
You can turn off your phone,
Go to fastboot menu by pressing and holding power button and volume down button in the same time.
Roll to "Restart Bootloader" with volume up/down and validate with power button.
Now select start and the network is back.
see you !:fingers-crossed:
