WiFi issue.. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Its been a long time since ive been on here so i kinda need help on this. My bros evo for some reason doesnt want to connect to the wifi. All it does is scan then connecting and then right away disconnect...it repeats the process several times before it stays disconnected. I was tryin to tether my data to him using my GS3...my other brother didnt have a problem connecting to it with the ipod. I flashed a new rom for his evo with no issues. Clean install. Still no go with the wifi. The evo has no mods. Jus the rom n the kernel it came with. It mighg b a hardware issue. Not sure. Any ideas?

[Q] 3g not working

I'm running cm7 nightly v28. For some reason the 3g does no work. The only way I can access data is to pick up some 4g. Is this a common problem? Fix?
Reflash the rom. I haven't had the issue but that could work.

Reflash the rom, and if its not in your power widget, check mobile data under wifi settings.
Sometimes mine do go right away so I turn it off and on quickly and that seems to do the trick.

Thanks for the responses. I tried reflashing but that didn't work. The turned mobile data on and off but got nothing. I even tried going in airplane mode and then out and nada. I think I might try flashing a different rom to get it working. Could it also be my PRL?
Its shouldn't affect it, but being on the latest PRL never hurts.
Make sure that its on in wireless networks...
This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine....
Mobile network is stuck on turning on -__-
Well try to reboot it real quick. And sometimes it can take it a minute or two to actually turn on.
I've rebooted several times. I've done full wipes and even to different roms. It just won't budge. :-/
I was having issues with 3G connectivity earlier. Getting lots of code 67's and data call notices. 4G was working fine so I switched on and used that. 3G is fine and back to normal now.

Did anyone come up with a concrete answer on this issue? I too have this problem and tried all the suggestions except 4g... it's not available in my area. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Try flashing a sense rom and updating your profile and prl

Wifi not working after phone has been idle for a while

This started happening to me couple days ago. My phone is connected to wifi at home, and whenever I want to use my phone after its been in idle, everything looks normal. The wifi signal is there, but there is no data, I cannot check email, browse internet, anything with data. Only way to fix it is to reboot or turn wifi off and then back on. Everything is fine when I'm on 3g, there are none of these issues. I am on Calk 2.7 (not 2.8) with the latest kernal, EL28 (I think thats the latest).
If I have an app running in the back that is constantly using data (google music) (recall, ONLY on wifi, NOT 3G), the app stops working whenever the phone goes into idle, I guess. Basically leaving a data consuming app ruining in the background did not help the issue.
I have tried searching, and some other people have experienced the issue on different devices (NOT epic touch), but no threads offer any solution(s).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had this issue on my previous epic touch and I took it back and exchanged for another one and the one I have now doesn't do it. It had the same problem u describe. Might want to check your router first though since it just started. Mine always did it and it did it on other Wifi networks. Good luck.

I've seen this happen on four different E4GTs. It seems random and only occasional. I've seen it on EG30 and EK02 stock, I haven't tried other "modems" or roms yet. I'm not sure what causes it, but a quick wifi toggle seems to fix it. Seems like the wifi radio just sort of "freezes. " Wifi sleep policy set to never, doesn't seem to make a difference. Minor annoyance.

What baseband are your running? Have you tired another baseband?
I didn't think the modem has anything to do with wifi. I have this issue on certain wifi networks I use. I have made tweaks to see if it is security settings or what but haven't figured out a pattern yet. I use a wifi widget and it looks like DHCP hangs up cuz it won't give it an IP. I reboot the wifi router and it works right after evertime. I will sometimes powercycle wifi on the phone and it will work. I really think it is a wifi router setting for the network but not sure which yet.

[Q] Wifi Problem

Guys, my wifi is acting really really weird lately.
I flashed aokp m4 with franco r98, and it works perfectly with my home wifi. But at school, it would not connect even though in wifi settings the phone can see the wifi and its full bars. I stood next to a friend with a gnex unrooted and stock Rogers rom, and he has full bars. While on my phone, it just says that the network is saved. I have been able to access the wifi before back when I had stock. So I decided to try my cwm backup of my stock rooted and still no use. wont connect.
Last try i made was to reflash google 4.0.2 stock image and lock bootloader, and try it with the factory rom. NOPE, no help at all..
Right now, Im back home on my wifi, full bars, and no problems watsoever running m2 with r98 again. but still...why???!!!
Is it hardware issue? How can I test and check!!! i really need this solved...as wifi is like a necessity in life these days LOL
Also, I tried foxhound before i went to stock, and still wont connect to school wifi.
One more thing, there is like one spot to two in school that i would get 1 tiny dot of wifi, whereas every other phone around me including the ipods have full bars...SOooo, any fixes?
anyone help ?

Before you flashed your custom rom did it work at school?
If it works at home, then it probably isn't a hardware issue... maybe check your wifi settings and try putting the frequency at 2.5 Ghz instead of auto? Or try to put it at 5.0 Ghz?
Maybe there are some Wi-Fi apps you can try searching for in the market that gives you more information?
You sure you're typing the correct password?

I'm not exactly sure about the wifi diagnostics app, I just got my phone a couple days ago
I'd say just download some random one's for now. See if the signal that it's reporting is different. Maybe long press the network name and select "forget", then try again?
Are you not getting enough bars? Or can you just can't connect to the AP?

Random Wifi Drops

Hi,
When im using my S2, there would be this annoying pop up saying "Connected to Wifi ..." like every few minutes to maybe an hour. I looked on Google for fixes but I could not find any. Than I noticed that right before it showed the pop up, the wifi bar was gone so I'm guessing that my wifi connection has been dropped?
So it keeps disconnecting and when it reconnects it has the pop up "Connected to Wifi Network ..."
Does anyone else have this problem? Its new so no need for a factory reset.
Its on the stock ICS update (4.0.3) and not rooted or anything.
A friend told me that my baseband could be corrupted, anyone know how to fix that?
Reflash a new radio.

I have the same issue and i have noticed it only happens at the same 2 places, so it leaves me to believe it is a router issue. At home all i did was unplug my modem and router for a couple of minutes, plugged them backed in and haven't had any more issues. But i would pay attention to were it is happening.

Same problem...
Hi I am also facing the very same issue with my gs2 when I switched to a new wifi router recently. I did not have any issues earlier. I tried some trials and noticed the following..
1. The problem exists with this particular router only.
2. there are other devices working normally in harmony with this router
3. The problem disappears and everything gets smooth and cool when one more device gets connected to the router(wonder how this happens)
4. Same issue with my galaxy tab
I have gs2 with ics 4.0.3
cisco dpc2320 cable modem with wifi router
Any ideas to solve this...???

Wifi problems

hi
since yesterday i'm having problems with my wifi connection, every time i turn on the wifi on the phone he checks for connections and for 1 second he can see my wireless network but then i can't connect to them, i tried connect to other networks but the same thing happens, i tried another rom (i'm using miui 2.3 and tried cm9)and the problem continues.
sometimes i can successfully connect to my network but in 5 minutes the connection is lost again.
I had this same thing happen on my phone a little more than a year ago. I tried everything but it didn't fix anything. I had to send it in and get a replacement.
if i change the radio would this do anything?
have you tried a full wipe. I've got this problem at the moment.
I figure either a full wipe will fix it. I can't do this at the moment because there are too many numbers in the phone
Or
The wireless antenna got disconnected when my gf dropped it
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
i already did a full wipe and installed another rom
the only thing i didn't tried was another radio
