I have some problem with Wifi on my Desire. I have installed Ginger Villain 2.0, but when i searh for wifi networks, i cant find my network. There are some other networks, but not mine.
Then i've restored Android 2.2 rooted, and everything is OK..
PS i also tried other 2.3 roms, and there is the same problem
Please, help me!
Change the channel for your wireless in your router settings. Change it to 12 or put it on auto. They work best but change it to what ever works for you.

I too have this issue with works WiFI
it only and issue on 2.3 ROMs, and is happening with every 2.3 ROM I try.
I can connect to home and mates WiFi no problem. I can connect to work no problem on any 2.2 ROM.
I have loaded a 2.2 ROM, signed into the network, saved the details in several WiFi managers, the reloaded 2.3 and the phone cannot see the network
What does 2.3 do differently/wrong compared to 2.2??
So no developers or anyone has any clue as to why this is happening in 2.3??

I hate to rub this in your face but I don't have any issues with wi-fi. Check my signature for my setup. Maybe there is a problem with the WiFi standard a/b/g/n, try changing the standard on your WiFi router (if it allows you).
Many people on the net have the same issue. And it's been the same with every 2.3 ROM I have tried. Yet every 2.2 Rom has worked fine so that suggests to me it's 2.3 issue and not an issue at my end.
I an unable to get access to the router. It's works one and while I have the password I will be shot if caught in the server room
So far it is only works router that fails to show up.
I installed WiGLE and it found if fine. The first time. Since then no go.
If you can see and connect to other networks, it could be a problem with yours. Hidden SSID? Wrong channel?
Maybe a radio update is needed?
Look at this. Maybe helps
Yes I believe it is a hidden SSID. I cannot change that.
I am on the latest radio.
I will read through that and give it a go and see what I can find
Cheers

I owe you a drink!
In that link it talks about setting it to scan 14 channels. I did that an BINGO straight away picks up the work WiFi on channel 13. SO it must be default 11 or 12.
Cheers mate!
To the OP, give that a go!
Hi all, I just updated my phone to JB. it seems that wifi has stopped working. Although It shows connected to the modem, I can't browse using the wifi. There are no issues with the data connection. I tried restarting the modem, restarting the phone etc yet the problem is still there. The moment I connect to the wifi it works for a while but then it dies off. I even did a factory reset on the phone yet no respite.
The hboot version is 1.36 and everything is stock. Can someone please help me out here?
I'd been using the whole night via WiFi

Same here nothing bad with my wifi .. CID HTC_044
Posting this on wifi. No problems at all.

Let me check again..no matter what I do...the wifi never works
Try forgetting the network or change password for your wifi network? Sometimes that will solve the problem. Have you also tried using your wifi on other devices? If it is still a One X problem only, send it for service.
If you are on N.
Try setting router to G only, see how that works.
While I dont have this issue on one x, got this same issue on china tablet connecting to certain Wifi access point.
Generally I say it's compatibility issue, between newer wifi driver on JB update and particular Wifi AP. And enabling G mode only increase compatibility.

Actually this modem was working well when I was on ICS. This problem only started after updating to JB.

I had the same problem when I updated the wife's rhyme to ICS, I had to do a full reset on my router and then it worked but every time I flash a new rom on my HOX the rhymes wifi goes down again so have to keep resetting my router, which is a pain
Haven't found a solution yet, I have tried everything but only resetting the router works for the rhyme.

This is the best thing you should try.., set the Wifi to G only or B/G only and then try connecting your devices. i had a tablet with this problem and it was so simple to sort it out with this router setting change.
what is your router's brand or manufacturer?
try disabling the WMS (or WMM on other brand) in wireless settings
I had this problem since ICS and this trick worked for me.
My WiFi has only improved.
Hardware fault maybe?

Ok I confirm. Setting the WiFi to g solves the issue. I really don't understnd why is n mode not working...there was no issue when I was on ICS. Strange.

i was having the exact same wifi issues with my phone back when i had ICS, however it seems the JB update has gotten rid of them for me
You shouldn't have to downgrade your wifi band to G.it's definately a software issue. Try going to wifi settings and change the wifi frequency band from auto to an actual value (eg 2.4)

I will look into this.
Hello all. I have been playing with the new 4.1.2 JB ROMs on my 7100 Note2 and have been having one major and repeatable issue, that I have seen mentioned a few times by others, with no obvious resolution.
I have tried the various leaks of the 4.1.2 that were floating around (the stock one, Wannam and Android Revolution HD 5) and now I have just tried the final Polish PLAY version of 4.1.2 as well as the latest Wannam as well. All do/did the same thing:
They can see my wifi SSID and they can BEGIN to connect and "obtaining IP address" comes up. EITHER they then fail and tell me connection is poor and to try again, or they will connect and then drop within a minute. Just today I made some kind of movement on this by trying different kernels. Perseus25 gives up and tells me signal is poor. Perseus27 WILL actually connect and stay connected but can never actually surf anywhere. Note2Core will either connect or tell me my authentication is wrong (which it isn't) and when connected, it too refuses to surf. RedPill is same as Note2Core. BTW, even when they DO connect, they do so at a measly 5Mbps (and cant find internet)
Now, you are all probably thinking "his wifi is rubbish!" but I REALLY cant see how that can be! Firstly, there are other users out there who have mentioned this in a few threads but I have never seen any useful replies as to a solution (or a cause!). But also, if I restore back to my usual ROM which is Android Revolution 4.1 HD (=JB 4.1.1) with a perseus25 kernel, then I connect immediately and stable at 54Mbps and works great. (all it takes is a CWM restore back and it is working 100%. same location in my office, same router, wifi etc!) Plus same wifi serves two laptops, wife's Galaxy S2, and has seen many iphones, ipads, and other laptops all fine.
Back in the days of the leaked 4.1.2 I DID try jumping wifi channels on the router just to prove a point. Every single one did same thing.
Flashing procedures have been the 'standard' method: boot into CWM, wipe data/cache/dalvik/battery, then flash new ROM, boot OK.
I had assumed that the early leaked version of the ROM had some bug but very disappointed to find same behavior in the Polish PLAY version which is final release AFAIK. It makes all these subsequent ROMs based on it totally useless to me.
I even extracted and flashed the modem.bin from my working ARHD4.1 ROM but nothing changed. So modem and kernel same as working systems but something clearly broken somewhere.
If you are one of the other folks out there who also has this issue, might be helpful if you give some info about your setup, so somebody clever out there can help us join the 4.1.2 club?!
Any thoughts?
(setup: UK VirginMedia 120Mbps down/10Mbps up. Cisco Linksys E4200 router. about 10 feet from router with one 'paper wall' between! ARHD4.1 finds full signal and surfs fast. 4.1.2 totally unusable)
Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi(s), you are my only hope!
I have noticed similar problems on my SGH-i317 using CleanROM 3 (4.1.2). The wireless connection randomly drops while browsing. This happens even in areas with excellent signal quality.

Thanks for contributing. Helps prove the point that it is something in the new ROM as our wifis are fully functional otherwise. I have matched the modem and kernel from my working 4.1.1 system and still failing....
I hope we get some help.
I also got this problem from latest WanamLite & Omega ROM. Both are using 4.1.2 JB.
Wifi detected and connected but always obtaining ip address..
Sometimes it tooks so long and can get ip, but still cannot access internet or can't even ping different ip address from the same network.

strange, i've been running omega 7 to 7.4 but dont have any problems with wifi.
i've connected to home wifi (TP-Link), workplace (Cisco/Linksys) and some coffe-shops without any problem.
most of them using WPA2 or WEP. sometimes obtaining ip address with WEP could take a lil longer about (10-15sec) but always a success.
but never used wanamlite for my note2 so cant comment any, srry
I'm not saying the issue is in the wifi itself, but it can probably be fixed by disabling n mode and only using b and g. Also try to make sure the phone gets assigned a static ip.
Issue seems to be 4.1.2 related.

yes.. i'm also facing the same problem.. whenever i flashed custom rom based on 4.12, like wanam 2.0, 2.1 n crash rom, i cant connect to the wifi.. it always shows optaining ip address and it never connected.. now i m using stock rom 4.11 n there is no problem to connect to the wifi..
i juz wonder why it happens to several devices only?
I having the same wifi problem with 4.1.2 firmware...revert back to 4.1.1 wifi connection run flawlessly..strange !
I have tried switching OFF the 5GHz signal from my modem and sticking to 2.4GHz.
Have also tried turned off N and locked it down to just B & G.
Have tried turning off the WMM in the QoS section.
All of these have been mentioned around the place as possible solutions, and I am afraid none of them changed anything at all for me. Also read that one person had his wifi issues resolved when he dropped WPA2 security and went back down to WEP. This is an unacceptable solution to me as I don't want to make my WiFi so insecure, and also, what happens when I go to my friends and family who all (rightly) use WPA2?! So wont even be trying that.
I am actually getting a new Virgin Media Superhub in about 2 weeks so will revisit the issue then to see if 4.1.2 just doesn't like my Cisco router.
Just weird. And frustrating as wanted to move on to 4.1.2!
have you tried changing the channel on your n router?
Ok. I here is my evo 4G lte story. I flashed cm10 as soon as I got this phone a month and bit ago. I totally had wifi connectivity problems at work and at my house. One worked better and one had to be spammed to connect 20 times to connect and would still occasionally drop. I went to sense is from there and found it to be reliable. Though I just moved to the ota, I find this sense to be just as reliable.
In all. The new ota let me move to jb with reliability.

Why not all people getting this wifi problem using 4.1.2 ROM? Does the device something problem? But why going back to 4.1.1, wifi problem dissapeared and can connect directly?

I also have exactly the same problem. I have tried every single 4.1.2 ROM but I can't keep my wifi working. I have had to go back to 4.1.1 as well. My wifi is perfect on 4.1.1. I use Cisco e4200 with ddwrt flashed. Very frustrating!

Try changing channels to below 11 if you're in Europe and the router uses channels above.

I`am on ARHD 6.0 currently and i never had problems with wifi on all the previous ARHD rom`s. Try doing a full wipe or at least also do a system wipe (and wipe cache/dalvik cache, data/factory reset and format preload) before flashing a rom. I`am sure that will help guys.
i have same problem no ip adressing and when i set statique ip no internet
i test Omega wanam mondx... same issue
omega 6.1 works great but at 7 version no internet by wifi, but ok in data
i have a logcat if help (catlog app)
i test rest router, change wpa2 to wpa, change channel, wps, super wipe (allll format) every omega rom, set mac adress in router with static ip
i become crazy why not on all device its n7100 XEF french buy on amazon
Sorry for my poor english
Hello xda,
Firstly I wanted to say thank you all for existing, Ive had much fun customising my HTC Desire and now my One X because of your articles. Even using google, all roads led to XDA.
Now to the problem...
Yesterday the official Jelly bean update for my One X, and since then Ive had a bunch of Wifi problems:
As soon as I connect to Wifi, I get about 10 seconds of internet, then nothing will connect until I turn Wifi off/on again, when this repeats, of course. This happens on both the 2.4ghz and 5ghz networks at my home.
If I use a network that have other users on it, it will disconnect for everyone.
The Wifi works on my phone properly when I change the router to 802.11b mode, but signal strength is poor.
I cleared the cache in recovery and when that didnt work I performed a factory rest, also didnt solve the problem.
I have read up about the problem and tried all solutions but I was thinking about going back to having my phone unlocked and rooted etc as this was what I had originally until I relocked it to get the official update (which has come back to bite me in the butt)
I guess this biggest question would be: Would getting a custom ROM fix this problem? Im asking this instead of going ahead with it like I normally do because I dont really want to make it worse if I can help it.
If anyone else knows enough about this problem, or the cause of it, that would be swell. Is it because of the fact that its been relocked/unrooted? Others who have stock standard phones have had the same problem but I want to be sure.
Some info:
HTC One X - unbranded CID HTC_023
Software #: 3.17.728.1
Android: 4.1.1
Stock Kernal
Stock Recovery
S-ON
HBOOT: 1.39.0000
Relocked Bootloader
Network 2Degrees New Zealand
WIFI Router:
TP-LINK TL-WDR3600

Its probably not super brief, but I want to make sure I have everything you need.
Thanks!
This sounds like the problem that existed on early JB hboots prior to 1.36, if I recall. Don't know why you have the problem, it's very odd.
My advice : make a nandroid of the stock rom and flash a different rom ! The bootloader has already been unlocked so the state of warranty will not change if unlock it again. Worth the try ..... going back to the reseller is always an option after this !
I don't have this problem and i've updated to JB for some time now.I am not an expert on anything,but a friend of mine had similar problems with the wifi that you have,except that his wifi would randomly turn off and on from time to time in addition to your problems.After going to the HTC repair center they replaced his Wifi antena because it was faulty,and after that he didn't had any problems.The strangest thing is that he was using a custom rom(ARHD if i recall right) and HTC accepted to repair his phone,that simply amazed me because i tought that once you unlock your bootloader and install a custom rom,you're guarantee will be voided.Anyway,sorry for the long post and stories,but you can call or sent an email to HTC regarding this issue,you might have a faulty antena.
Yeah I thought it might be the faulty antennae halabaloo that people talked about for most One X phones, but the Wifi was fine before the JB update and I haven't dropped it around the same time (though almost threw it at the wall)
Also it looks like Ill have to wait a bit for a custom rom, as the stock kernal is the only one that plays nice with the new HBOOT. Touchscreen is not working in rom or recovery.
A bunch of other people with HTC_023 had this same problem.
I'm on _023 and Touch does not work with CWM (not really that big a deal), but works fine with the stock ROM. No issues with wifi, just an odd issue with the voice->text that seems to affect only my phone. Do yourself a favour and make a nandroid backup and store it on your computer so you don't have to poke around for one later.
I'm also on HTC__023 with JB update and have found since the update that it dosen't like 5ghz wifi yet 2.4ghz is fine
I am on the same ota and my wifi does not work at all. Hopefully HTC figures this out. This is my 2nd HOX the first one had the bad antenna.
don't let the cat lick the butter
Ok I think I fixed it, if youve got wifi problems on a 5ghz network, youll have to change the mode to 802.11a and channel to 36 on the router (at least, thats what I did) and it works again!
If I use a network that have other users on it, it will disconnect for everyone.

Isn't it an AP problem? With the new wireless module in JB the phone WiFi may talk a bit differently to the AP. I would suggest to check with different APs and to upgrade router/AP firmware.
My sister and I both have galaxy S6's but hers is stock and mine is running biggdaddyrom. I was assuming I was having WiFi problems due to the kernel I was using so I switched kernels, and even full wiped and reflashed the rom and still have problems. No data would come through while on WiFi, so I have to switch to 4g so I could use the Internet. All apps do this so I started assuming it was the update. Then My sister told me she has WiFi problems too and then I figured its not the rom or the kernels but it's the update. Does anyone have similar problems too or knows how to fix this?
I am running PL3 and the Biggdaddy ROM. No WiFi problems at all. What problem do you have and are you experiencing it with just one router? Like only at home? Or in multiple locations?

So turns out it wasnt just my home router. Sorry I'm responding late but I wanted to find out what was going on. There's this app on sprint devices called secure Wi-Fi. And I turned it off cause it "protects data on WiFi" when it just cuts it off.. Its weird cause it works on any WiFi that your on. It could be a public or secured. But anyone's once I turned it off everything went back to normal. I'll post the link if you wanna try it yourself.
