I have recently installed CM10 which is cooked in this topic, Everything worked awesome expect one thing, Each time I switch Wi-Fi on, Wi-Fi state locked on "Searching Wi-Fi" and will not find any thing, Also I installed WiFixManager but the problem still remains.
Any ideas ?!

Greetings everyone. I've had a T-Mobile Dash (the black one) for quite a while now, but since I got it has a really weird problem with the WIFI. When I turn on the WIFI it searches the connections flawlessly, I can put the key on any connection or enter freely when is open. But then it says connecting and a few seconds later it says connections available again, as if it tried to connect and could not. This happens with ALL connections, unsecured, WEP, ect. I had installed every cooked rom available and also installed the stock one to see if it works, but alas, nothing works. Does anyone has any tips or tricks on how to get the WIFI working?

Have you considered that probably the router your phone is searching has a problem? or you tried in other location and still the same problem?

Thanks for the suggestion, but yeah, I already did that. I have tried connection in many routers and in all happen the same thing. It is a really weird problem and searching through the 3VO thread I saw somebody had the same problem but no answer. I am ready to just accept that my Dash is WIFI less forever. I have tried everything. But thanks anyway
So my phone is a Samsung Galaxy S2X. Specifically, it's the Telus variant, the T989D, but I was told that this forum is where I should ask about it.
Basically, my wifi stopped working for some reason a while ago. I got it early in January, and the wifi was working initially, but eventually stopped for some reason. I tried rooting it and upgrading it to ICS, and the wifi began to work sometimes, but it was hard to tell what I could do to trigger it working. I think it had something to do with toggling various power saving settings.
Anyway, I've tried basically everything to get the wifi working. I've tried dialing those test codes, like *#*#526*#*#, and those didn't work. I've tried flashing various custom and stock roms, being rooted and unrooted, flashing kernels, flashing the radio, etc, and I haven't been able to fix it.
Right now, I've restored back to 2.3.5, and when I try to turn the Wi-Fi on, it says "Turning on..." for a few moments before saying "Error." When I was on ICS, it would just try to turn on for a while before turning itself back off, no error message. When I was on a JB AOKP rom, it just had the wifi switch greyed out entirely.
Does anybody have some kind of solution to this?
Bumping and providing an update. Last night, I flashed AOKP, and the Wi-Fi worked, for a while. After about 15 minutes of use, the Wi-Fi would refuse to connect to my router. Restarting would fix this.
This morning, the Wi-Fi is no longer working, even after flashing AOKP again.
Are you using the tlle4 radio? Only one that works well for me anyway.
Sure its not your router? Going bad or its settings? Try a friends router...someone who uses their phone on their wifi. Using the tlle4 radio when you try.

Doesn't sound to me like it's the router...sounds like a defective phone.
Are you under warranty?

When I'm running an AOSP Rom, my Wifi only scans for networks after a fresh boot. Once it has connected to a network, no more scanning happens, no matter how often I tell it to. It's quite an annoyance when I have to reboot my phone every time I leave home and want to connect to a coffeeshop Wifi outside.
Once it is connected, there are not further issues - signal is good, no random disconnects or anything. Just no scanning.
Everything works fine on stock, and I've successfully tried ViperX with Sense 5, but all AOSP Roms I've been trying recently had this behavior - I have no idea what's causing it. Maybe it's an issue with the CM kernel (most Roms use some form or other of it)?
I really have no idea. Thought I'll post a question here while I go do some more troubleshooting of my own.
I also just grabbed a snippet of what I hope is the relevant part of the logs: https://paste.xinu.at/WO9zZ/
On second thought, maybe it's not AOSP based, but rather 4.3. I haven't spent much time on 4.2 with this phone, so I don't remember if the problem existed back then. If I don't find a solution, I will downgrade later to make sure.
Solved Somewhat... Not really. Worked-around maybe.
I rolled back to CM 10.1.2, and the problem went away. Seems like it wasn't AOSP causing the problem, but the new always-on feature in 4.3, which allows scanning for networks even though Wifi is switched off. I've done some searching, and other people on all kinds of devices have had problems with Wifi since this change was implemented.
Once I disabled this feature and toggled Wifi off/on once, the problem seems to be gone on CM 10.2. Not quite a proper solution, but I guess I can live with that for now, I don't really have the time, energy or experience to look into this further. Maybe somebody more enlightened than I has a proper solution.
Hi,
I've meaning to ask this a while ago but never had a chance to. I also tried looking for threads related to wifi problem with the note 3, but they all dont seem to be the same problem as the one i'm having.
Whenever I use touchwiz roms: Darthvader, Jedi, Hyperdrive. My wifi connects but would stop working after a while of not using my phone. The wifi icon says it's connected but nothing would load, I always have to turn wifi off and on to fix this problem, then when phone idle for a while then the problem would come back.
However when I use AOSP roms, the wifi is working great. Always connected like it should be. Anyone else have this problem? Is there any fix that I haven't heard?
P.S Sorry if what I said is confusing, English isn't my first language.
Hello.
this problem has been going on for a few months but I never really tried to fix it until a couple of days ago.
This is exactly what happens: I start my phone and try to get a GPS fix with any apps, as long as I don't have a 3G connection, it works flawlessly.
the moment I enable the 3G connection, the GPS fix is lost and never works again until I reboot. wifi, 2g, airplane mode, they all give me a perfect GPS fix. as soon as the little "H+" shows on the screen, the GPS dies until the next reboot.
the weirdest thing about it is that it happens with every single room I try. so far I've tried CM 12, 11 and 10. exact same problem
Tried PA4.5 and 4.6, again, the exact same thing.
I even tried going back to stock, first to 4.3, nothing.
right now I'm on stock 4.0.4 which is the oldest image I could find, flashed everything back to stock (except boot-loader and recovery)
I've wiped everything between each room flash, of course.
I'm running out of ideas here. any help would be very appreciated
quick update.
I decided to try a different sim card from another carrier, and guess what? GPS working perfectly
but sadly, I need to use my own sim card. after 3 days of flashing roms, I feel stupid for not trying this at first. anyway, I didn't know your sim card could enable or disable your GPS?
does anybody know anything about it?
