Try this, go to Start> Settings> Wi-Fi> Power Mode> Power save mode: change to {Best performance} and check mark the box {Auto turn off WLAN if no WLAN or user activities after LCD OFF over: {set to 30 seconds}, Done, soft reset your device! Turn on your wifi, it should work as it normally would now.........!

Allready tried that. I must have messed up the settings , because after I did a clear storage , wifi worked again. However after the "clear" it does not recognize my storage card. It isn't in the system info in taskmanager and not in explorer.

update: I have tried another card and now it's stuck
I have to send the whole thing back.
I have a little problem, i say little because it doesn't cause my wifi to malfunction, it just doesn't connect to any remembered wifi network when i turn it on... I turn on wifi via notification bar... When it doesn't connect i just enter menu/Wireless&Networks/Wifi settings, and as soon as i enter that, it starts connecting to network.
I tested it on my own network, and few more. It is not because of rooter, or something like that.
I use CM7.2 latest nightly(14 jan), i have app2sd installed, but it worked before with such setup.
What i did is, forget the network, then connect to it again(by typing a password), but it happens again from while to while...
It's not that big problem, but i like when everything works as it should be, it's why it is there...
I have also messed with some unsigned themes, made by myself... But i think that can't eb causing the problem since i restored nand backup after doing it ... And i installed fully signed working ones now ...
refresh.....
the files that i messed with in theme somehow caused this, and i fixed it by just forgeting all the networks, then again connecting to them via password ...
last night I was reading online comics and it suddenly not respond so I force it restart and it was worse. My kindle cannot recognize my touching.
It is strange that TWRP still works. Restoring doesn't helps, too.
So I wipe it all(except for sdcard) and install various cm9 and cm7 with corresponding kernels from hashcode with no luck. Cm9 is ok but without wifi. Cm7 just wont respond.
Also I tried using TWRP to go back to pure stock and wifi still not working. So I redo all the root, twrp again.
Finally I fix permissions and install cm7 aka now it's screen recognize my touching but the wifi still cannot be turned on.
Is it possible wifi chip has been broken?
Any one can help me, THANKS!?
hey everyone, do u have any suggestions......
now, as long as I open wifi it goes dead. I don't know what to do. Is it possible that due to heavy use the chip gets break down?
I was wondering what remains the same after I flash roms. Because installing zip has formatted boot, data and system.
I hard off the device when the wifi went wrong. And the application in which led to this situation cannot be reinstalled(install said OK but openning it the screen was black, still responding to button savior).
So maybe the problem lies in the internal storage that is unchangeable. Any one helps!? Or should I contact amazon CS?
Half of the old apk is probably left in data/app
Happened to me once.

But why the wifi still cannot be turned on? yes, it is when I using the app the wifi connection seems to be unstable, and I pressed the power button for 20 seconds.
Thanks for your reply.
would try to clean up the wifi configuration:
turn wifi off
look for /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
open the file and delete everything except the first two lines, they are:
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
update_config=1

this is for stock rom - for cm7 it has to be simmilar
turn wifi on again
hope this helps ...

Thanks all the same.
I used root explorer to search for wap_supplicant.conf since it's not in that folder and delete everything except the first two lines. (forget to mention that my wifi just shows turning on and I can't do anything, flash new roms won't help.)
Then I reboot it the result remains same.......
did you try to restart your router ?
because i have this sometimes with the stock rom - wifi tries to connect and can't - all my other devices work fine - i use to reboot to router and the kf is connecting immediately again

I'm sure it has nothing to do with my router. because I live on campus and use school wifi. wifi is in the state of turning on since booting. regardless of flashing new roms.
thanks for your reply.
just closing out all known issues ...
but nearly running out of ideas at this point
maybe something on your sdcard partition ? - i know it sounds crazy but i had a case where the fresh installed rom did not start until he copied the whole sdcard partition to computer as a backup and deleted everything (besides .android_secure and twrp folder)

I can only think of files remain unchangeable when flashing roms or wifi chip burned(hope not).
Anyway idea about the internal files with respect to wifi issues?
BTW, I didn't find the half installed app or any other files in data/app

no - sorry - maybe do a logcat and look for something that gives a hint in the right direction

actually I'm just a noob. I don't know how to do a logcat and how to find the problem.
as you can't download it from the market, attached here is a logcat program
install it and you'll see a lot of debug lines - be shure to make or let make the kf a wifi connection attempt - save the log and attach it as .txt file to the thread - i'll take a look if i can see something to track down your problem
the thing is the wifi is turning on by default. no matter what I do. do u mean use some app which needs wifi?

it seems like the wifi is still turning on so I just open catlog and wait a few seconds and save it.

and force closes a bit later
but there is never a connection attempt - strange ...
now I wonder which files are associated with wifi status in internal storage. some files must have been changed.
im kinda curious if you find a fix. ive been struggling with terrible wifi connection with my kindle. itll turn on, but it constantly turns off then after a while wont connect anymore. just says obtaining wifi then doesnt connect just shows saved wifi connection. im almost to the point of giving it away. not sure if amazon will help me out, and i wouldnt sell it to someone if i know it has wifi connection issues. i try to reset my router and it helps for a little bit, but then goes back to the issues i had

seems like we have different issues. Mine is turning on without any connection or list of available networks. Have you tried reboot, forget all networks or so on?
Hey, I've got CM10 on my GS3. When I go under Settings, the Wifi toggle is set to Off and grayed out so I can't toggle it. When I go to Wifi, it just says "Turning on Wifi" indefinitely. I also have issues with wifi tethering sometimes.
Any solutions to this? I haven't been able to find any posts on it. I'd prefer not to reset to another ROM, but if there's no other ways to fix this, oh well.
Thanks!
Flash to a TW rom and see if it works.
If it doesnt work, try the following:

So as to fix this problem,some people suggest to do a Factory reset.But, it is completely unnecessary.Instead you can try the following methods, which where tested by me successfully.
1. Dial *#*#526#*#* to reload the wifi driver.If it doesn’t work, restart your phone and dial it once gain.It will work for sure.
2.There is an app “Wifi-Fixer” from android market,which claims to be fix this problem.But seriously,it hadn’t worked for my mobile phone(Samsung Galaxy Ace).But,
if you are interested, can download and try it here.
For HTC users, I have a pretty good trick which works very well.
When you have obtaining IP address problem,
1.Turn off wifi.
2.Open “Allshare”, then you will be asked to connect to a wifi network.
3.Then select the wifi network that you need to connect from the list opened.
Magically, you will be connected without any extra effort.This works 100% sure without fail.
If that doesnt work try this:
1.Dial *#*#526#*#*.Then a message will be shown “Driver loading Successful”.
2.Now Start the WiFi, it should work.
If the message “Driver Loading Unsuccessful” is shown, follow these steps:
1. Dial *#*#526#*#* again and click options button on your phone.
2. Select Rx test.
3. Select Channel >9 .
4. Click Start and exit.
5 . After some time, turn on the wifi.It should work.

My phone won't even let me dial that, the code disappears the second I hit star the last time, not sure if it's supposed to do that. I'm gonna just try updating CM and see if that fixes it.
First off I want to say that the rom (SensuAOSP 2.55) is the bomb... But I am having a few problems and not sure where to turn to. My first problem is the tethering, I can't get it to work. I can turn it on, and my IPAD finds it, the password works and it says it is connected. But no data is passed. It shows it has the IP address etc but nothing.
The phone vibrated at one time, but now it is not. I have gone through all the settings (but 1 I guess since I can't find it) with no luck.
Lastly, I have clicked on the A2SDgui icon and it comes up and states It could not start for one of these reasons 1. Your device is not rooted 2. A2SDGUI scripts could not be found 3.No ext partition found. I know I formated the partition, It says that superuser has permission, just not sure what else to check...
Thank you to any of you for your assistance

Lets talk about the Tethering first... I did the upgrade on this ROM and still did not work (Really didn't think it would). Was wondering if anyone would think I should just update the radio?
