Hi
i have the "Higgsy_Modded_3.4.2_GB_Froyo_RC2" rom on my defy, everything works perfect....with one exception.....wifi
------------------------------
***ive copied this text form "reinsen" because he had the some problem***
Got some serious wifi issues...
When i switch on wifi and start something traffic-heavy like dl or youtube vid,i dont lose connection to my router but to the internet.cant open a site via browser or anything else. Switchin wifi off and then on again gets me back online only until i start streamin or dling again...with one exception
Most prolly the wifi drivers aren't included in the rom...although there are loads of other roms, you can try those
I know this is stupid but did you reboot your device?
Because thats what happened to me with another rom a reboot is essential.
-Jabar
Did you full wipe as well?
yes, i wiped all and complet
reboot done, without any effects
hmmm, i think i go to try the S.Froyo...
i´ve found the problem.
the defy CAN´T handle router with WMM + 802.11n standart.
Log in to your router an turn off WMM or switch the wifi from 802.11n to 802.11g

I have an issue with the Dash (t-mobile). I have open access to the internet with a D-Link router and I cannot connect to the internet. I have checked all the settings and everything seem right. I can connect to the net, but I cannot access any websites.
The error I am getting is "page cannot be found. Check the name and try again"
Is there something I am doing wrong?
I am using Kavana ROM and I have open access to internet.
Are you trying to connect through wireless with IE?
If so make sure the options/connections are set up to use the correct network on your phone.
You may have to reflash. One thing I learned some times data wont work at all and sometimes it works flawlessly after a flash. Thats the first thing I check after a flash is the data, if it does not work reflash until it does. There might be an easier way, but thats just the way I do it.
I cant connect to ad-hoc wifi network, it is well known software android problem at all devices but i tried like this links:
exop.pro/blog/2010/08/15/ad-hoc-support-for-android
szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/
when i replace wpa_supplicant, wifi seems doesnt work, i cant find any wifi network (ap or ad-hoc)
please help
I tried creating ad hoc wifi network in my laptop for my defy but failed. The phone did not detect the network. Then I installed connectify instead and it works faultlessly.
Is there any adhoc patch for defy?
*wrong post deleted*
I can connect defy with my laptop without installing any other software. But I'm not sure if it is a ad-hoc network. My laptop wifi driver provide a special ap mode and it can be used to share network.

Same here. I tried all the patches of wpa_supplicant given in this thread as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755254 but the wifi just can't search for any network and it turns off itself.
Another member "webvan" tried the above steps on his Milestone and failed(from the above thread).
Seems like Moto has a different hardware config.
FYI, I'm running 2.2.2 custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037076)
What a tragedy.
It seems there's no such patch for Defy.
for me it worked with 3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC rom which i used for a very long time.
the problem is, you must manually connect to an ad-hoc network.
if you don't want to do that each time, you can install cyanogenmod by quarx and it will automatically connect to your saved ad-hoc network
Maybe you should try update to 2.2/2.3 based rom.
Fyi, i'm now at MIUI rom & got no problems with ad-hoc wifi network.
Dont forget to activate Internet Connection Sharing (for windows user), just to assure your device got IP Address automatically.
P.S Sorry for my bad english
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
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.

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 all, ive been having issues with my SGH-i747m, I had the app Unified Remote (connects to my local PC over wifi) working fine until i (Kingo ROOT) rooted the phone to install a firewall (AFWall+ , Droidwall , and a few others). After installing I now get no ping response from the PC end, and i have an older galaxy s1 that replys to pings and works with unified remote.
Assuming the root or firewall apps broke something, I then installed TWRP recovery Formatted the data partition and flashed CM 12.1.. but the problem remains, no internal LAN pings or connections.. really strange..
TLDR:
-Started on OEM 4.4.2
-root or firewall apk killed LAN connectivity
-Formatting Data in TWRP and upgrading to CM 12.1 did not fix the connection
Do i need to format more partitions to get wifi LAN? or maybe odin? thanks
I suggest flashing a stock ROM, perform a factory reset in stock recovery, flash TWRP, and then root by flashing supersu from TWRP.
Oh ok, so before trying CyanogenMod i did try restoring the phone through settings>security>reset phone option, not through recovery though, i assume these are different things?
thanks!
ok using this app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ddm.iptools
running a traceroute to my pc i get an infinite loop of the phones own internal ip, with a 0.2ms
my working phone stops at 1 hop with the correct ip of my pc @ 3ms
i understand what this means, i just have no idea what to modify / reset to fix this
FIXED - http://superuser.com/questions/701956/android-devices-dont-know-route-to-a-host-located-in-the-same-network
i considered my router being the issue, i was about to reset its settings, when i checked my DHCP client reservation settings, somehow there was a bunch of new very strange entries, so i deleted all the unknown entries and the phones are all pinging now
i assume the router got a bit messed up when i was fiddling with adding a DDWRT router repeater
thanks for bearing with me
