Hi, you have to go into Settings and the click on Wi-Fi for a few seconds and let go. It will bring you into the next menu where you can choose the network you would like to connect to.
Once you find your Wi-Fi network, simply click on the name and enter in the password (if it has any).
I just switched over from a stable Gingerbread version of MIUI to this Jelly Bean rom and I like it so far.

Thank you for your answer. I tried every method to turn on the wifi. But it not seems to working. It is not turning on. I tried to find this answer on google and as well as XDA but I didn't find any answer to this question. I think this wifi issue is occurring on PVT4 devices but not sure what could be the possible reason for it.
Now, I think I should stay on GB and I am installing Leedroid. Let's see if this error still exist.

Strange, it resolved the wifi problem. I flashed the rom and removed the SD card and the wifi is properly working. I didn't figured it out how to manually add IP address. Just like in GB roms we have advance settings in wifi menu. In ICS there wasn't any advance settings.

[Q] Wifi problem ICS Vision

Hello everyone,
I have installed ICS AOSP Vision Beta8r4 (BTW great ROM), but when turning on wifi my phone doesn't find any network. It should show around 5 networks including my home network. I know that in this rom wifi is working. I also faced with the same problem using andromadus.
I guess problem is in my phone, not in rom.
Please help me to solve it.
Thanks.
Have you tried any other (non ICS) ROMs to see if WiFi still works? Did it ever work with an ICS ROM? Have you tried Taz's Desire S port? I'm pretty sure most recent build has working WiFi. Also are you full FULL wiping? Boot, System, Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache, the works?

You have to turn it on, wait a bit, then it should be available to turn on again, turn it on and it will work

I have made that before. I have noticed that it takes two times to turn on. but anyway after wifi is on ("on" icon turns blue) there is not any network showing.
Dear devs, I have installed ICS B9R1 and still wifi doesn't work (no networks), please give some sugestions.

This is a VERY peculiar problem... Are you sure you are waiting long enough? Because I did notice that it took awhile to turn on... You could try throwing the g2+wipe or whatever it's called, other than that though... this seems a very odd problem.
I will try to think of what else could be causing it but I imagine you will in fact require a dev for it since my knowledge is not extensive enough on the subject :/

thanks. maybe I am doing something wrong when installing rom (wipe is not full). may you give me link for full wipe instruction?
I'm having exact same problem, most of ICS roms have no wifi working, in last Virtuous Quattro Beta same problem. When i turn it on it sees no networks, on the last build after some wipe reinstall circles i was able to scan for wifi networks, but it never did connect. It's so sad that i cant fully move to ICS because wifi is absolutely must have for me. I wonder if someone could help us
K-Al
Wifi problem is region based and some devs of other devices already making fixes
This script fix helped me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403801
Sure it helps u too and let's hope devs we'll get it fixed in desire z roms

[Q] Runnymede AIO v5.0 Wifi Wont connect

Hi, I had initially flashed the Runnymede AIO Rom v4.0.2 to my HTC Desire with no issues, using CM7 r2 hboot, radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23. All worked very well, when 4.0.3 was introduced, I then flashed that rom, which intalled without a problem, however I was unable to connect to my Wifi, it found the signal and let me enter the security key, but just stays as connecting then disconnected. . I then flashed V4.0.2 back expecting that to work, however wifi still doesn't connect. Now Ver 5.0 is out completely wiped phone and intalled, all ok, but STILL no wifi .
Has anyone else experienced this issue? any advice on fixing this? help please!

Hi,
I am currently having the same issue, Runnyed AIO v5.0.1 with Cm7r Hboot (fresh install did it thismorning).
in my case, I have attempted to do it with a static ip and without on multiple wireless routers.
It has remembered my wifi network, says it's secured WPA etc but the icon up the top shows a 1 bar with a green ex.
Wi-Fi option continuously loops between Disconnected, Connecting... Connecting to wifi... Disconnected and so on.
Edit:
I tried selecting 'Wifi Protected setup' and then selected WPS > PBC (Push Button Configuration). They found each other now my device works on my home network.

I have been flashing this ROM from v4.0.1 till v5.0.1, almost once per day for a week I tried. but still facing FC problem...
I'm using CM7/r2 and 1024MB 4EXT partition via 4EXT Recovery Touch,0MB swap...

I've had this issue with one of the V4 AIO ROMS (Can't remeber the exact version) but I managed to fix it by entering a Static IP address in the WiFi settings.
Yes it was stuck on optaining ip address then disconnecting. It was fine on v4.2 then stoped working in 4.3. My router was set to wireless n only. Changed to bgn mixed mode and now works fine.
Looked up and saw that desire doesn't support wireless n.... Odd it must have cause I havnt changed it.
Anyways working fine now assuming on wireless g. Strange.........

[Q] Wifi issue with RSK ROM 7.4 with 802.1x security

I installed RSK Springtime v 7.4 with SNQ kernel. After a couple of hickups (like ext4 partition issue, FC issue at first boot, getting google play apk from different forum because it was always force closing) I was able to install it perfectly and it is working absolutely fine now and I am loving this ROM.
The only issue remains is that I am not able to connect WIFI using 802.1x enterprise security in office. With WPA2 I am able to connect at home.
After searching the forums I found that few people resolved WIFI issue with a different kernel DZ #18 but not sure if the issue they were facing was with 802.1x or it was a general issue.
Can the RSK team suggest what should I do? I am not really keen on redoing the complete exercise of installing the ROM again but if thats the only solution I guess I had to go that way.
The change log of 7.4 says that this issue if fixed but doesn't look like it is fixed (Fixed wifi to connect with 802.1x, PEAP and MSCHAP (Hope)).
Device: Desire (Bravo) PVT1 S-OFF
Kernel: SNQ Kernel 2.6.35.8-snq-111118
Radio: 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Recovery: 4EXT Touch Recovery
SD Card: Transcend 4GB Class 8
Rom: R.S.K V7.4
The wifi issue is solved in v7.4.2

Do you get any errors / messages when you try to connect to Enterprise-network?

No, it could find the SSID .. .says authenticating ... and then disconnects.
Did you try to add the network manually?

Yes, since we have a hidden SSID, I had to add the network manually.
Before rooting, it use to work only after moving to the new ROM, i am getting this error.

I used that rom and i got wifi no problem, so its probably rom issues with that type of security on the broadband.

Updated to RSK special edition.
The workaround to this issue is to put credential password and then connect. Once connected it will work till I reboot the phone.

Wifi fix is crap don't know why people use it. If I recall there is fix that needs to be flashed after flashing miui. Go back to the thread and read the devs first post should be there.
Edit: oops I was thinking of leedroid try flashing rom on top of itself just wioe dalvik and flash see if that solves issue.

Thats weird I have not had any wifi issues with Ice Cold from LC.
I haven't had any wifi problems with any ics or jb roms I've flashed. I already confirmed in the thread there should be no need to use the wifi fix with the new rom. Try downloading again and doing a full wipe. Also make sure your battery cover is properly placed.

After I read your question " it doesn't see any routers or only yours?", I thought I should try somewhere else.
Surprisingly it found other Wi-Fi's. That's kind of strange, isn't it?
Seems that the problem is limited to my wifi and the ones nearby it ( i.e. Wi-Fi's of my neighbors don't appear as well )
I use Whatsapp all the time on my NOKIA E72 at home with my Wi-Fi.
I was using Android Revolution HD and I had no problems with my Wi-Fi.
My NOKIA E72 have no Wi-Fi problems.
My Laptop have no problems.
You may suggest that I add my network manually, in replay I will tell you that I've already tried.

Manually? Not really, I don't know how to do that
Care to explain to me how it's done? Since every now and then I need to reset my router to connect again. Only happens with my cell.
Was it able to connect to the other routers?
Try disconnecting your other cell and pc to see what happens.
From there, the only thing I could suggest is try a different rom. I don't know what else to suggest.

If u've flashed some other stuff maybe u got unstable wifi. I can only suggest to reflash the rom.

i reflasht the rom but that didnt work, i think it is a fault in the venom tweaks.
Btw. I dont have unstable WiFi, my WiFi says error when i turn it on and goes of again
