ICS ROMs Wifi WPA2 Problem and show poor - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi , i test many custom Roms ( ics - 4 ) with various Kernels and patch
I have Planet ADW-4401 modem a i set a WAP2 key for protect in all of these Roms i have Problem with Wifi !!
the Wifi will turn to be ON , the Singal Stretch is Excellent when you scan Networks then you choose it and give Password and Then it will continusly shows Optaining IP ... and the Signal is show poor now and you just see Optaining IP goes and come ...
i Try to change Basebond , new Kernels , Do various Full Wipe and change Step Of installing like install wifi patch right after install kernel , or after Rom or even After Install Root , reboot and then install patch
even try to use WEP key not ver2
And When i Remove the WPA pass My phone is connect without Problem !!!
No success At all
My Phone wipe and Restart and Flash more than 25 Times and I decide to give it up ICS Custom Roms
it`s weired things cause when i Flash Official LT18i_4.1.B.0.587 the wifi works well !!!!!
I see some Topic in many Forums specially in Sonyericcson forum that have my Problem too , seems like a bug in ICS Roms at least with some Modems like me
anyone have Idea or news about it ??
why the wifi patch module is seprate zip in all custom Roms and Kernels ?? why cant put wifi in ROM or Kernel ??
sorry for my bad English i hope you get my point ..
i really like to be up to date , now i`m using a custom 2.3.4 Rom called MooDeD~GB 30.5 all things even Wifi works fine .... but i really want to have android 4 ...

Working 100% - [ Updated Patch ] Enable ad-Hoc Networking htc Incredible 2 VIVOW

Working 100% - [ Updated Patch ] Enable ad-Hoc Networking htc Incredible 2 VIVOW
this updated Patch will enable ad-hoc 100% steady connection for both ( WEP and open Networks ) , Also Hotspot WPA2-PSK is still able to connect
what is new in this Patch is it does not affect the ability to connect to hot spot WPA2-PSK networks ( i.e you can connect to both types on the fly ) , i tried a lot of Patches , ( usually in Sense 3.5 Roms when you apply an ad-hoc Patch you loose the ability to connect to Hotspot WPA2-PSK )
Android does not show this Ad-hoc networks ( it Finds them in the search , but filters them out of the shown results ) , this patch prevent that filtering and shows those ad-hoc networks
i am running Ginger Bread 2.3.4 with sense 3.0 , tested also with Virtuous Affinity v1.48 sense 3.5
DISCLAIMER
I am not responsible if flashing this Mod results in bricking your phone
for Rooted devices
​ Important tip
i am using GSM network only
if Hotspot WPA2-PSK is working fine and later on it is disconnected ( usual with a lot of sense Roms ) , just turn WiFi off and on , it will connect on the fly with this Patch .
if Hotspot WPA2-PSK ( during first use ) is connected but not transferring data ( this happened with Affinity 1.48 Sense 3.5 , BUT my other sense 3 Rom didn't had that problem ) , then use APN manager and choose your APN and activate it , this immediately solved the Problem for me
( NOT related to the Patch ) , in some cases data transfer is blocked due to Firewalls , Please note that for some firewalls it not enough to disable it , BUT you need also to check the firewall Rules
There are two types of WiFi Networks :
Infrastructure ( Hotspot ) WPA,WPA2-PSK which is the most secured connection , usually routers broadcast this
Ad-hoc it is either WEP or open network which is less security , usually issued through a laptop connected to a DSL line to broadcast a temporary WiFi connection
Almost all Sense Roms wifi use ( Hotspot ) WiFi , for Sense 3.5 the Base of the custom Rom ( ie Sensation , Runnymede , ...etc ) affects WiFi behavior and connectivity
Updated Patch
it is always good to do a Backup for your data , Or Just Backup the original file " wpa_supplicant " located in System\bin .
to restore the original file " wpa_supplicant " any time :
just open the Patch in a winrar window and navigate to System\bin and over-right the one in the Patch with the original ( you can get the original from your Rom zip ) . apply the modified Patch from recovery and you are back to the original
if you use Root Explorer to restore the original file ,make sure to set the correct permissions and ownership values

Broke WiFi
I rebooted into recovery, wiped dalvik, and installed the file.
After I rebooted I couldn't connect to ANY WiFi source.
I think I'm going to have to restore a backup to fix it.
tested again Working

tested again Working , After i read your Post i tested the Patch with Virtuous Affinity v1.48 sense 3.5 to double check
Ad-hoc both ( open and WEP ) working fine , Hot Spot connected WiFi but no data transfer , my guess that this is what you mean by Broken WiFi ( Solved for me )
if Hotspot WPA2-PSK is connected but not transferring data ( happened with Affinity 1.48 and a lot of sense 3.5 Roms even before using the Patch ) , then use APN manager and choose your APN and activate it , this immediately solved the Problem for me , i am only using GSM network
Also in some cases data transfer is blocked due to Firewalls , Please note that for some firewalls it not enough to disable it , you also have to check the firewall Rules
Please note for some people enabling ad-hoc is important for some reason ,

So far so good for me. Very nice.

thanks , now almost 200downloads without complaints except for the above one which is solved , ( only two members Pressed my thanks Button !!!!!!! )
i will now stop reviewing the number of downloads , cause now it is proved working without complaints
I read that both HTC Incredible 2 and HTC Incredible S have the same hardware. Would the above patch work on HTC Incredible S from Bell Mobility Network? Has anyone tried to confirm it?
Thanks.

i guess the Patch should work with Incredible S
Desire HD , Incredible S , Incredible 2 are Almost identical
i managed before ( after some trials ) to install an Incredible S Rom on my Incredible 2 and every thing worked perfectly ( Including WiFi ) .
i also installed before an older ad-hoc Patch for Desire HD on my Incredible 2 and it also worked fine for me

[Help & Temporarily fix]can't use wifi / usb / bluetooth tethering when data is on

[Help & Temporarily fix]can't use wifi / usb / bluetooth tethering when data is on
hi
I have this problem for a long time but i found some new things about this problem that want to share it with everyone , so i decide to create a new thread , so you can share your ideas to fix it also i found a way to use it Temporarily
my device info:
lt18i , android 4.0.4 , build number 4.1.B.1.13
rooted , bootloader unlocked
installed UHDv4 ROM and UHDv4.8 MOD with LuPuSv16
who have this problem ?????
my problem is :
i want to use (wifi/usb/bluetooth) tethering , everything is good just after removing wifi modules from lupus menu ( just for a minute )
after a while i can't use wifi tethering when data is enabled
*****The only thing that I did not notice, it was option 3 , you will read it in the following*****
so i decide to use another kernel : so i should to flash a wifi module from CWM but after boot up i don't have any wifi but (usb/bluetooth) tethering works good
i also tried to remove lupus wifi modules before flashing new kernel
So I went back to LuPuS
***** i found a new feature i should do the following to make wifi hotspot works when data is enabled ******
i have 3 options:
1 = first enable data then enable wifi hotspot ***in other words*** enable wifi hotspot when data is enabled = works
2 = first enable wifi hotspot then enable data ***in other words*** enable data when wifi hotspot is enabled = this will make the problem
i should just do option 1 to make it work , if i do option 2 , the problem starts and i can't make it work with option 1
after that the problem starts :d i can't use it again to solv the problem , for example
but i found a new option for make it work
3 = enable data then reboot ***in other words*** reboot when data is enabled , without removing wifi modules
if i do option 3 , i can use option 1 again without problem
uuuhhhhhh so strange problem
i think my phone have problem with set the internet ip address for tethering
here is the logcat when i did option 2 and wifi hotspot don't work with option 1 :

hi , please someone help
devs please say something , just what you know and ways that can help
please help , thanks
finaly the problem is fixed now
hi
finaly the problem is fixed now
you can't solv it by changing a rom or kernel , you should flash a FTF with flashtool to solv it
here is what i did :
i flashed LT18i_4.1.B.1.13_Vodafone DE.ftf with flashtool and it works now
after that i flashed LuPuS kernel and UHD ROM and UHD MOD
it is still works very good , now i can turn on wifi hotspot when data is enabled whithout any problem , everything is good now
i suggest you flash LT18i_4.1.B.1.13_Vodafone DE.ftf For increasing system and data memory for Arc user and latest BB
Hi I think I find how to fix it
You can flash a ftf via flashtool to fix it but this way will wipe all your data
we can flash a ftf but without flashing system, kernel, baseband and without wipe data
You can choose which one you want to flash
So select what you don't want and leave unselected which you want in flashtool

hi EAGLEBOOY,
I have moved your thread from General section to Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting section. This maybe useful to others so if it is in Q&A it will be easier to find. Please use the correct sub-forums when posting.
