All Rom - Problem with Wifi - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

activating the wifi goes in and never active - tried all rom same thing

Need lots more info, I assume you are rooted as you say you have tried all ROMs, can you clarify, ROMs based of 2.2 and 2.3 and 4.x ? Have you tried different radios, have you attempted to go back to stock fully? Have you checked if its hardware related maybe bad connection @ WiFi antenna? Do you when this started? Have you tried different modems or does your phone not see any? Please give as much info as possible if you want accurate help

Wireless Tether

Please help! All suggestions are welcome.
After flashing OMJ's 2.2 ROM on the first day of its release (knowing that wireless tether would not work), something has been preventing wireless tether from working in all ROMS.
I have tried everything I know (which is not much)... different combos of radios and wimaxes, several different ROMs (based off both 1.3x and 1.4x), different kernels... nothing can get it working.
I am guessing that there may be data somewhere that did not get wiped through recovery or through doing my nand restore.
Thanks!
There are a couple different updates for the Wireless Tether app floating around. Versions 2.0.5 pre 4, pre 5, and pre 6. I've had success with all of them varying by rom. Can't post the links right now, but some of the rom threads have them posted in the OP. You'll probably have to try each one til you find the one that works. One of them should.
[EDIT] I think there's a pre 7 also.

wireless hotspot for 3g works fine on cm6. it's a 2.2 aosp rom. no sense. don't ask about including sense. won't happen. 4g currently doesn't work, and i'm not sure that a 4g hotspot will, because sprint's implementing a MAC confirmation with 4g hotspot (they really wanna charge you 30 bucks a month for it).
but, 3g hotspot works fine on cm6 2.2. that's my point. that's all there is, don't ask for more.
other roms have 4g functioning, so i'd assume 4g hotspot works on those, if you pay for it.

I know pre7 works on my ROM and most other Froyo ROMs.
Pre7 only works on the HTC stock kernels iirc. If you're using an oc kernel please try the other versions listed of it doesn't work for you

yea the pre 7 works, you can jus google it like i did
sorry that I did not make this clearer in the original post but I have indeed tried all of the different wireless apps (including pre 7) with a variety of ROMs and nothing is working.
The problem I am focusing on is that I originally had wireless tether working on fresh 1.01 (based off 1.47), I created a nand backup, flashed OMJ's 2.2 ROM, then when I restored back to the Fresh ROM my wireless tether was kaput.
None of the combinations of different version of the app, ROM, kernel, radio, and wimax (and I have probably tried 50+ unique combinations over the past week) have provided any working results.
I even went through the entire ROOT process again, and still nothing is working.
EDIT: What I'm trying to emphasize here is that once I flashed a 2.2 ROM wireless tether stopped working on ALL ROMs... even the 1.3x and 1.4x based ROMs
I have the same problem... the program starts just fine but the download data amount gets stuck at . 4 and my laptop can't find the connection at all. Had OJ Rom and now running latest version of fresh... please help!

Well I installed the pre-8 version of wireless tether and it worked one night and then I had the same problem... I'm using easy tether now until I can get this thing working again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Two weeks later and I still have not solved this... any help?
Wireless Tether is working fine for me.Fresh 3.0.1 w/Netarchy Kernel 4.0.3 and pre-8 tether .apk
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I understand that for nearly everybody wireless tether IS working. However, given the ludicrous number of combinations I have tried, including everybody's latest and greatest app/ROM/kernel it is safe to say that my problem does not lie in the use of something out of date.
I need NEW suggestions from someone way more experienced than myself.
pretty weird - mine has worked on every rom I've tried.
have you tried CM6?
Also where exactly are you getting stuck?
im having the same problem tried pre 8 now 7 both say activating wifi interface failed, starting access point -failed,
Tether working fine, except I can't watch espn videos for some reason.

try this maybe
Had the issue after running ava v3.
Wipe everything, data cash, dalvik. Dont flash your previous radios or wimaxs, they arent for froyo. Once everything is wiped flash your new rom. Evio 1.1 works great. When you open wifi tether, it should ask you for user permission, if it doesnt somethig is wrong with your su app.
We need more details about your issue. Otherwise all anyone can suggest is wipe everything and flash another rom and try runnig the app. Or like someone else suggested uninstall and reinstall verious versions. But the first time you run wifi tether super user should pop up, if it doesnt this is what is preventing u from running wifi tether.
I'm sorry I did not specify exactly what was happening, but I thought that since this was a well known error for the early adopters of 2.2 people would be familiar with the nature of my problem.
When I put ANY rom on my evo (regardless of whether it's 2.1 based or 2.2) my wireless tether program does not send data. The app itself works fine (gets SU request), creates a network, it just doesn't transmit data because of the authentication Sprint worked into froyo.
My UNIQUE problem, is that this problem persists even when not using those early 2.2 roms. I have tried HUNDREDS of variations of radios/wimax/app editions/ROMs/kernels (including the latest releases) and it does not matter what I do, when I start up wireless tether it stops at .4kb and will not transmit the connection to my computer.
I have gone beyond wiping all of my data (through amon recovery), I even went back tot he 1.3x RUU and went through the whole root process AGAIN and still the problem persists.
There is something on this phone that the data wipes are not removing that is blocking this function, and I do not know how to revert it back. PLEASE HELP.
ive got mine working but its alot slower then even dialup..tried 7 and 8 and same results with both.. Tried on the AC rom and a stock rooted here (using a stock rooted off this forum which the op says works fine for him ...

Wifi Issues

So I recently got back into the country and I had thought to update my CM nightly to the latest revision and I have run into some really weird wifi issues. Currently my wifi is unable to find any networks and I have even tried installing different wifi scanners from the market to see if any can detect any and they all fail to. Yes I have tried searching various threads but the only similar issue(find 0 networks) seemed to have magically solved by trying to add a new network and it just connected, which did not work for me.
Surprisingly turning my phone into a portable wifi hotspot still works which makes me think it is not a hardware issue but I may be wrong. I have tried going back to my previous backups of my roms and none of them seem to be detecting anything. I have also tried various radios and I am currently on the one listed below. If anyone knows the solution to my problem it would be great.
Rom : CM 7 Nightly build 92
Baseband: 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26M
Kernel: CM Stock 2.6.35.13
Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.
Flash superwipe through recovery and then flash a fresh rom. See if that fixes it.

Wow the Superwipe worked when normal formats didn't. Thanks a lot!

Stuck on airplane mode * CM10 *

Hey guys !
This is my first post so i guess you can consider me a noob.
I was going to post in the developer section ( particularly the custom rom section which i needed to ) but i can not as a i am * noog * so to speak.,
I was wondering if anyone could help me.
I recently installed Cyanogenmod 10 along with trip's custom kernal.
everything works perfectly except for the fact that when i turn airplane mode on, then i turn it off, it still thinks it's in airplane mode.
So i can't receive calls , or do anything that involves cellular data.
I've reflashed the rom and kernal but it doesn't seem to work
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Have you tried another kernel? Also try reflashing it + installing modules if it has any.

I had exactly the same problem when I updated to HTC's latest official firmware. I think that the latest radio driver doesn't like some networks (particularly smaller networks that may be setup in a non-conventional way).
Unfortunately, I can't help you because I still have no connectivity with my HOX after scouring the web trying to find a way to correct it. (As I said, it only seems to be a problem with smaller networks so it isn't a very well known issue, although I do know other people who have the same problem.)
All I can say is that the latest radio driver seems to be the problem and without S-OFF, it doesn't seem possible to downgrade it. It seems like the only option is to wait for HTC to release a new radio which will hopefully fix the problem.

Radio Data Wifi HELP

Hey all,
Ok, I started having issues a few days ago with my SMS/MMS and I notice at the same time I was getting poor Wifi / Radio service. (Custom ROM's)
Well now it's gotten worse, I just attempted 2 different ROM's (both cm10.2 based) and was unable to get a Radio signal, Wifi wouldn't function at all, and no data at all. I came from a fully functional stock (ZVC). I did try switching some settings in Data / Wifi and etc back and forth as well as reboot and etc, also tried a freegee fix / restoring of the EFS and nothing helped.
Can't really stay on the ROM with no service as I do need to be able to use my device, so I am gonna have to restore my Stock img and perhaps if some help is posted I can give it another shot.
Thanks all!

This may not help, but it won't hurt either. Try flashing zvb modem. Look in the teeny bin thread.
Zvc and zvb modems seem to be the same. But who knows.

Wifi issues with CM10.2 using S3 i747

Hello all, this is my first post, so if I placed it in the wrong category or you need more info, please let me know!
Anyways, I have been having a lot of problems with the latest Cyanogenmod nightlies regarding my Wifi. First off, I noticed it wouldn't auto connect to my home Wifi, as well as the one at my work. I looked deeper and I wasn't even able to remedy it with a simple turn off and turn on of my Wifi, I have to reboot the phone whenever I want to connect to a new network or reconnect if I get out of range. This is very annoying. I tried flashing an updated modem driver for my phone (I'm on bell in Canada, but it's the same as the att version) with no luck. I tried fully wiping my phone and freshly installing the latest nightly, no dice. I was just wondering if you guys could help me out!
Thanks, MickJuice

I just installed yesterdays' latest nightly of CM 10.2 and am not having that issue. Did you Do a clean install or a dirty one?
I have the same symptoms. If a solution is discovered please let me know. I did a fresh install in an attempt to remedy the issue.

I think this is a bug with Android 4.3 in general. I am having the same problem on ParanoidAndroid RC2 9/22.
I was looking into that, I saw alot Of Galaxy Nexus problems updating to 4.3

i'm having the same wifi issue too, reinstall stock rom and everything work fine,so, this has to be a custom rom issue for sure, ive gone back and forth a few time with the same wifi problem with custom rom only

I believe it's not a custom ROM issue, It's a 4.3 issue, as multiple different ROMs based on 4.3 are having problems, and the Stock is running 4.2.2
