[Q] WiFi not connecting automatically - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Found this a lot on other devices forums too
Sometimes, which is most of the times actually, when I turn on WiFi it doesn't connect to my home network (tried others too)
I ll have to tab Scan and wait, or if it doesn't work I toggle WiFi on/off
it may seem silly, but it is so damn annoying
Tried like 3-4 roms, tons of radios and it persists
Is there a solution to this ? :crying:

what ROM's have you tried all these wifi test on ?? and do you know how to check the wifi scan interval???what is it set to...and what are your methods of flashing and recovery ??

You might find some value by wiping your wifi settings (/data/misc/wifi...)
Might be worth your time to run a log cat and see what you see...

[Q] Wifi and CM9

Hey,
After fresh install of FXP 128 my wifi worked for few hours, but later it refuses to connect to any wifi, because the "signal is too low" or something.. how to fix this?
Actually try getting close to your modem/router first and connecting again or if its still unable to connect reboot your phone

Already did that, didn't help.
Then CM9 probably has an issue with wifi, i guess you'll have to wait until an new RC comes out
Try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28442213&postcount=2998
Delete /data/misc/dhcp/dhcp_list
I have no files in dhcp/
Another wifi problem
I was also having trouble getting wifi to work using JJ hybrid mix 3.1 + Arcknight kernel 3,3 and 3,4, had to use stock kernel
The solution from JJ'to reboot after installing he's kernel didn't work for me.
I've had cyanogenmod 7.2 installed prior JJ.
I've wanted to post this error to JJ's thread under development, but I don't have enough posts made.

I'm sorry for mistake. I used to have some similar funny situation... wifi in my brother's house is protected by WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] and my arc can't connect to him router (authorization problem ?!) . I have the same router and the same protection protocol and in my home wifi works good.
(Sorry for ungrammatical English)
I'm also having a poor signal even when my router is very close to me...I have 2 WiFi routers and from both I get the same issue...I have deleted the files on dhcp folder but doesn't have the dhcp_list folder neither...
I have installed CM9 and previously had SE standard ROM 4.0.4
Any idea what to do?

Wifi - i have to get this fixed!

Iv had this very annoying wifi problem for maybe a couple weeks now and i just really wanna get it fixed ASAP...
anyway im using...
-MooDeD 90.7 (ICS)
-Baseband .72 + libs flashed
-KTG anzu v1.41 + wifi modules flashed
everytime i go to settings and turn wifi on the "on" button doesn't turn blue and all does is say "scanning for wifi" and eventually goes off again
iv tried Wifix which hasnt worked and just need to get this problem solved, thanks in regards for any replies which are posted
Ummm have u tried other ROMs?
In my experience, there are reason may cause the error you mentioned:
1. Missing of wifi modules (Seems you have flashed it)
2. Some ROM may overrides the wifi module (Not sure for this, I'm still a newbie here), just try flash the wifi module at last every time
3. Tried MooDeD 90.7 (ICS), remember some choices in the AROMA may cause the wifi issue(Not sure either:fingers-crossed: chaos forgive me)
So my suggestion is....try another ROM first. Then you may address the roor cause.

ITs not the fault og the rom its fault og sony itself and will be fixed in new android ics version ....if you want your wifi to then then you should flash GB..
or try
just delete dhcp list and reboot phone
use root browser lite from google market, navigate to root: /data/misc/, delete dhcp folder, reboot phone.
change kernel.

[Q] {ROM} - JB CM10 FXP144 -> Wifi reconnect problem

Hi,
I am really happy with the FPX144 rom! It is getting more and more stable.
Still there is one anoying issue. When I come back home, my does not always reconnect to my Wifi.
When I go to WIfi settings it can not see the network
I click refresh, then it sees the network, but does not connect.
I click the network and Connect. Now it tries to connect, but nothing happens.
I need to turn off and on Wifi and then it works.
Anyone has a sollution for this?
When you are using CM10 FXP144 you must have instaled the Kernel inside ROM(zip)... And are you trying instaled the final fixes by bestt -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780316&highlight=cyanogenmod&page=301

I did all the things in that post.
Full wipe. kernel from ROM, ROM, gapps, final_144_fixes, BB72_libs
It is already working better than previous version, but still this issue remains.
With the new FPX145 I do not see the problem anymore. Maybe it is fixed, Maybe the ROM is now flashed in a better way?

Wifi not working on JB and ICS ROMS

I have bene using GB roms but never faced this issue. Today, I tried first Nikez lente JB and K900 AKOP ICS. I couldn't connect to wifi.
When I click on turn on wifi, the message appear turning Wi-Fi on .. but nothing happened. No Icon shows in status bar for signals of wifi either.
I am on Stock Hboot PVT4 S - OFF

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.

Are you doing a full wipe before installing.
Some jellybean and ics roms occasionally have issues with wifi, but gb roms usually dont.
Try one of mildwilds roms, and do a full wipe before flashing.
If thats not working try the app from the playstore called Wifi fixer here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.wahtod.wififixer&hl=en
I also have problem with wifi in ANY ICS or JB rom. It can't recognize any wifi network, sometimes, it even freezes in wifi section in setting. I am sure that I'm doing all of install steps correctly; as I said, I have no problems with roms based on older versions of android. the strange case is that my friends have the same problem. Is it possible that it relates to internet providers in my country? (I'm living in Iran).
