Hi!
After flashing a new custom rom my phone's wifi has stopped working. I saw that MAC address is changed in 02:00:00:00:00:00. I tried with wypes, flashing a new custom rom, came back to the stock rom and resetting network settings but nothing has changed. I can't find a copy of the old mac address. How can i solve this problem? Thanks.
Flash the KDZ file using Lgup uppercut.

Did you do a backup first?
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
i think it's a hardware failure. if you have flashed a stock rom and the issue is still there. it must be a hardware issue since its not a software issue. i had this problem with my xperia x and have seen it in some samsung devices. it is the wifi ic which needs to be replaced. the bluetooth too should have problems not only the wifi.
I don't have any backup... Do you know if LG's warranty covers this type of HW problems?

People do you even have a solution for my WiFi problem? I have been asking this on several forums but unfortunately I get no reply, my N6P is no more detecting WiFi signals and Bluetooth. I literally get only loading screen on my WiFi panel and end up loading at the end only. I flashed stock images as referred by one of my friend but unfortunately nothing happend N6P without a WiFi is boring guys please help.
I don't get Bluetooth signals also
There is also no IP address seen and it is showing unavailable and MAC address in 20:00:00:00 from long time
I have been done flashing stock firmware images of Oreo and Nougat.
One day long back it's been months, I once tried flashing custom kernel it suddenly worked then I don't know when it disappeared.
Anything related to kernel and the signals of WiFi and btooth ?
Your help will be appreciated guys help

If you have already wiped your phone completely by formatting the partitions and flashing the stock image using flash-all.bat script, there is nothing else to do. Both Wi-Fi and BT are on the Broadcom chip soldered on the motherboard. Try again. Ensure you have the latest ADB/Fastboot binaries on your PC. Connect your phone to the PC and fastboot format (not erase) system, userdata, cache partitions and then use the batch file included with the full image. This will return your phone to bone stock. If you still have the problem, the motherboard and/or chip is bad. If you have "already done that", you are at the end of the road.
Hello!
My Oneplus 5 does not connect to any wifi networks. It is able to see all wifi networks in the range, and is also able to save the network if the password entered is correct, however, it won't actually connect to any network that is saved. I have tried using advanced options while connecting to a network to change from DHCP to Static settings, but it still won't connect to any network. I have also tried changing the wifi band frequencies (2.4 and 5 Ghz individually) to connect to a network but that too does not help. Mobile Data and carrier signal on the other hand work flawlessly, and so does bluetooth connectivity, NFC and personal hotspot (which is why I am very confused). I should also mention that when it fails to connect to a saved wifi network, it occassionally displays "Disabled" under the network SSID (replacing "Saved").
I have changed 3 different ROMs (LOS, stock OOS and No Limits ROM, even replaced the stock kernel with blu_spark r69 when I tried using No Limits and stock OOS to try and see if that fixed the problem), but the phone just won't connect to any detected/saved network using any of those ROMs. I have reverted it fully back to stock now (OOS 4.5.14 and stock kernel and stock recovery) and am still having the same problem.
Sorry if this issue has been solved before and if I am reposting something, but I really need this fixed ASAP and am not able to find a working solution after searching the forums and googling the whole day. Please help me! Thanks!
Edit: finally fixed the problem thanks to Ivints and PeterGuru. Check out the post that Ivints linked below (especially the comments in page 2 of the same)

Thank you so much Ivints! I'm trying to fix it right now with the solutions I got from the post.
I'm having exactly the same problem that the guy who started that post had. I'll let you know when I fix it and everything goes well again! Thanks again, bud!
if you want to stay on Nougat look for the O2N revert flash file it's in the Oxygen 5 beta threads that will let you get back to a nougat based rom.
The Oreo update touched other partitions outside of /system so those wifi drivers don't work with Nougat anymore

aww you should have totally read this post and the one that Ivints linked to fix your problem, i.e. if you had a similar problem.
Glad that everything is working out for you properly now.

I see... I'll look for that thread and get the flash file! thanks! I'm currently using xXx's No Limits 9.2 OB03 ROM with bluspark 3.2.1 recovery and bluspark r77 (Oneplus 5). The only reason that I feel like reverting back to Nougat is that I want to be able to use Xposed again. So i guess I have that option in hand not too! Thanks, bud!
Hello there my friends, i have a problem with my op5
its about wifi: it doesn t see my wifi anymore. idk why
it s been connected to this wifi 2 years ,even after switching roms kernels, firmwares
and now , it doesnt see the wifi no more, actually it sees it, in `Saved` section, but when i press on it to connect
it says ` not in the area` but my other op6 its connected no problem
and i even tried through qr code, it says ` check ur connection and try again`
Just one add-on cause I was just a few minutes away from formatting my data. My OP5 unlocked rooted, rest stock, wasnt connecting to my home wifis (2,4ghz and 5ghz). I flashed a full ota zip. I deleted wifi bluetooth via backups settings.
But I found out that connecting to an iphone hotspot worked. So I entered manually the network SSID + password although the same network name was already in my wifi list (with marking: "saved"). I then clicked on the second "new" same wifi and it directly connected to my home wifi. Same happened to the 5ghz network. I then deleted the old 2 ones.
I have no idea why this happened, I only tried to get VoLTE/Wifi Call running with the magisk module. This might changed sth but I dont get the connection here since there should be no interference...
I flashed a new rom and now the phone connects to my home wifi but fails to get an ip address.
I have tried other roms that worked in the past but no dice, the error reproduces every single time
I wiped data, formatted it, made a factory reset, flashed roms following the instructions but i havent been able to fix it.
Anyone can give me a hand with this?
Does the phone know its WiFi MAC address
If custom ROM affected your Persist, phone lost its MAC address and cannot connect to WiFi - you should restore your original Persist
But then you probably also lost certificate for DRM L1 (and AFAIK that cannot be restored)
Price for playing with some custom ROMs
Check about Persist in other threads here under Q/A and Guides, things were discussed couple of times (I dunno more, my Persist is still ok)
Thanks a bunch, mate. It shows wifi and Bluetooth mac address, so it looks like that is ok, unless im checking in the wrong place.
I'm trying to mod my Samsung Galaxy Tab E, SM-T560, but no matter what ROM I use, wi-fi just never works. I have tried two versions of LineageOS, ViperOS and DotOS, but they all result in the same problem.
When I try to connect, the wifi label blinks and says "Saved", or sometimes "Authorization fail". No matter how many times I try, it never connects. Trough my modem manager app, I can see the device connecting for less than a second and than disconnecting. I don't think it's hardware problem, since wifi was working fine with original firmware.
After searching for similar problems, I found something about changing the mac adress in wlan_mac.bin file, but I guess this does not work in SM-T560, since I could not find this file in root. I also tried changing the mac adress trough console but it did not fix the wifi.
Can someone help with this please? It was suppose to be a gift, but now it's worse than it was before lol xD
Thanks in advance!
