rooted Fire now won't connect to wi-fi - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I messed around with the new Jelly Bean ROM last night (pretty cool, but not yet totally functional)... but when I reverted back to my daily driver (ICS), I can't connect to wi-fi. I restored Modaco (semi-stock) and wi-fi connects. Maybe a corrupt file in the ICS ROM? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated!

Factory reset on stock and it should work

Broken Wifi!

I recently was using a sense rom never had issues with my wifi and a few days ago I flashed a MIUI rom on my G2 and wifi worked for a little while then I noticed no wifi? I then rebooted my device and tried to connect again......nothing it will say connecting then scanning then disconnected.So then i did a restore back to the sense rom it worked on.....nothing its doing the same thing I even tried the new cyanogen 7.0.0 stable release still nothing, can someone please assist me on what to do?
Maybe change the channel for your Wi-Fi?

Extremely slow connection

Everything was fine while I was using the 4.0.4 AOKP ROM but since flashing the new Jelly Bean (accidentally messed it up and had to do a factory image reset) both the Wifi and Data is really slow now. It's not dead, it's just slow. XDA for example takes around 30s-1min to load. I'm currently downloading the yakju factory image and will install it to see whether it's the ROM's fault but judging from the feedback it's probably not the ROM. Another problem is that I can't seem to download from google play right now, it was fine when I first flashed it though.

Wifi Issue

Hi all,
Tried flashing a JB rom after running ICS for a month or so and sfter the update I wasn't able to connect to WPA2 WIFI, tried re-flashing the ROM several times, flashed Supernova ROM, even flashed a completely stock RUU, now I am unable to connect to WIFI, however WIFI worked perfectly on ICS and ROMs before that.
Does any one know to how fix this or am i in a work f*ucked?
Please someone save my day lol

[Q] Weird GPS problem. What happened?

Yesterday my gps wasnt working at all. It would not lock on no matter what I did. I was on a custom rom and I tried wiping my data/cache, reinstalling maps (just for giggles), and a multitude apps from the market that help deal with gps problems (gps fix, gps status, toolbox, etc).
When all this didn't work I decided to odin back to the last official JB update and still no gps. On a whim I decided to odin back to an ICS firmware and that made my gps work. I have no idea but it did. I then odin to UVDLJC, installed TWRP's most recent and restored my backup of the custom rom I was using in the first place and gps now worked.
While I'm happy as heck that my gps is now working and that it was not a hardware issue I'm extremely curious what happened.
I have flashed many roms lately and I cannot think what a custom rom can do to gps to hose it or if it was just one of those things. I would of thought that when I originally did an odin to UVDLJC that would fix the issue but that didn't. Whatever the flash to ICS did fixed it but what in the heck could that of been?
I figure if I can find out or get an idea what happened then I can steer away from flashing certain roms, or just be prepared that flashing any roms at all can make this happen again.
Same here.
Hello, ddcoh.
I am currently having the same issue you had with GPS not working. I've tried everything from trying tedious Play store apps to trying many different roms and kernels (clean installing every time) to completely reverting back to stock including using TriangleAway in case that did any help. Nothing worked. I have been thinking about going back to ICS to see if that worked but the last time I tried to downgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.0.4 I ended up soft bricking my phone even though I followed the steps word for word.
Can you tell how you went about downgrading to ICS and then back to JB, please? I use my GPS a lot and I would hate to find out it's a hardware issue.
Typically, it's been when people are going from 4.2 to 4.1.

Well I used odin to flash an T999_UVALEM which was a prerooted ICS rom. After booting it up I checked to see if GPS was working and it was.
I then used odin again to flash T999_UVDLJA which is a JB rom and booted it up also and saw that gps was working. Then I just restored a backup of a room I had been using and GPS still worked.
I've been out of town and noticed that after flashing a few roms that gps wasn't working so instead of doing all the above stuff I just flashed a cm10 rom. I believe I either used a cm10 nightly (or maybe 10.1, memory is hazy) or LiquidRom and that got the GPS working by just doing that. Not sure if that will work for you but you could always backup your setup using TWRP's latest and then flashing a cm10 rom and seeing if gps is working and if that fixes it then you could then just reboot and restore the rom you are currently on and that might fix your gps for you.

[Q] Recently re-rooted and roms not allowing wifi

So facebook somehow bricked my wifes phone, so I restored it back to factory and re-rooted it etc. I've tried flashing three roms Venum Ice Reborn MK4 1.0/2.0 and FTW Annihilation 1.0 MK4 and when the rom boots up the wifi won't enable. So I restored my Nand backup and wifi works. Is it just these two roms or is there something else I'm missing. I've re-rooted it several times because I had some issues with the toolkit, but it didn't seem to matter how it was rooted, I still can't get wifi enabled on those roms. haven't tried any others yet. Thanks
Have you tried the wifi patch?
Negative, I didn't notice it listed in the rom page. Is it a stand alone patch?
Found it, Thanks
