Wifi Problem Arc S - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Arc S. with JJ"s hybrid rom. the wifi works good for my home. but when i go to my college it doesn't find my college wifi.
my college has 3 wifis . it detects 2 wifis but doesn't detect the third one which is available in my class.
My friend's galaxy ace, galaxy s, and even my friend's xperia mini pro with ics detects it and surfs the internet.
so what might be the problem??? I am using xATG kernel. I need help desperately!

If the kernel had wifi modules you had to flash.. flash them (there always in a .zip that you need to flash through CWM which you can download with the kernel)

I'm using .587 and WIFI module on JJ's ROM, working well..

[Q] Question about flashing a new ROM

I have flashed Cyanogenmod and it worked fine, but I noticed the gamepad was not working. Also my WiFi doesn't work anymore. Would flashing a new ROM that is based on stock fix my WiFi and gamepad issues?
What model of Play do you have? I'm using CM7 with R800a and they both work.
Also, you DID flash the kernel as well right?
gamepads don't work for the gameloft and EA games; for the wifi have you tried to add manually one connection first?

[Q] Wifi modules (FUSION 4.0 and 4.3) flashed and still not working

Hi, I recently installed Racing Bean 2.0.1 with Fusion 4.0 kernel and flashed the Modules.zip I found in the Fusion 4.0.zip on my ARC S
The wifi isn't working, than i tried many times to wipe everything and flash again, with no benefits, the wifi still doesn't work
Same thing after flashing Fusion 4.3 and relative modules!
I used the search but I didn't find anything about this specific problem so I hope someone can help me :good:
Thanks
Well,I didnt have this issue and it shouldn't normally happen,but u can try leaving your wifi on and flashing the modules again(after flashing your rom that is).READ mechmetal's thread on wifi not working(the second post)..i can't help you if this doesnt work

[Q] Xpreia Arc S WiFi is't stable at all !

Hi,
The misery is the ARC S wifi isn't stable at all, it connects to my SSID smoothly and gets IP too. but most of the time I can not open any websites even google.com from the phone browser ! and the funny part is i can't ping the phone IP from my laptop but i can ping my laptop IP from the phone ( ARC S ) !
It's really annoying, for solving this problem I decided to changed the Stock ROM ,Stock Kernel , and unlook the bootloader.
1- I unlooked the bootloader.
2-I flashed [KERNEL][GPL] Vengeance [1.38][3/5] from recovery ,also I installed OTP-Module and Wifi Module.
3- after that I flashed the stock rom to [ROM]{ICS} Xperia Ultimate HD 4.0 | The next Generation | Slim & Beautiful | 08.07.13
4- the arc s Baseband is 77 and I didn't change it.
but at the end none of this efforts doesn't work. and the problem is still exit as before. (
This is my mother phone and she just uses it for surfing the net and goes to facebook, when every time it goes wrong , she'll come to me and asking for troubleshooting ....
please some tell me what should I do to solve wifi problem.
You can try using a different kernel, LuPuS v16 or Advanced stock kernel is recommended.

You cant flash kernel from recovery. You have to flash it using fastboot

First of all Thanks popthosegaskets,
I flashed [KERNEL]ARC/S-Advanced stock-4.1.B.0.587-[ROOT+INIT.D+CWM+SD-EXT] after that I flashed Stock ICS ( 4.1.B.0.587_Generic_World 1254-8596 ) ROM too.
every thing seems more stable especially wifi. but when i flashed kerne via fastboot I didn't installStock_WiFi_modules_ICS_587.zip
with that ( I know, I can install it via recovery ) by the way, Is it necessary ? I'm afraid if I install it, every thing goes wrong again !
what 's your idea about that ?

Thanks buddy
I knew that.
up........
You have to install the WiFi modules AFTER installing the ROM. Otherwise the custom ones (from the kernel) will just be written over by stock ones.
How did you get on with this?
I've tried just about every GB, ICS and JB ROM, and kernels to match. My experience is that any GB ROM/kernel combo and the WiFi is fine. Stock ICS ROM and kernel, WiFi is fine. Any other ICS ROM or kernel, and every JB combo gives poor Wifi performance. Connection drops out, router not in range when standing next to it, and when it is connected, slow speeds. This is one of the many issues I'm having with this phone. When (if) funds permit, I'm going to a Z1.

Yeah but Gin2KK is GB-based, so WiFi is fine. I'm now on G2KK and doomkernel v22, and WiFi is great!

[Q] request function rom arc s

Hi I decided to write this thread because after a while mount af searching i was not able to find a good answer.
I have a sony ericsson Xperia arc s (LT18i) unlocked bootloader, i have tired lot of rom, but every rom don't support one of important things i need
For this phone i particulary need:
working HDMI, usb-OTG support, after installing whats'app having 100mb of free-ram, and the most important think: a working wifi eap connection.
Until now i tried:
Atomic 8 GB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340089 fast and working but i can't conncet with wifi using eap.
Anyway i notice that every rom based on stock sony firmware have troubles with wifi eap (xperia plus, atomic 7, atomic 8)
Arconium http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565475 everything works but i'd like something more reactive and fast. Have to say that i have disabled/removed some system app i don't needed (notes, thmes, contact google sync, calendar sync and so on )
I've tried also freexperia rom (based on cm7, cm9, cm10, cm11) but i have some otg trouble and non HDMI.
I have seen a rom that i'd like to try: DiMiui, based on GB and working HDMI(and i think also wifi with eap protocol) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1503527 but links are dead and no mirrors on internet
So i'd like to have some advice for a rom that can have this features. Or Some fix/trick to apply to those rom for a better experience.
Thank for help and sorry for some incorrect phrase, I'm not english
