The thread shows some 3rd part apps for wifi tethering. But when I install them and give them root permissions the wifi does not start. Under wifi it shows (Error).

Test if your WiFi antenna is misplaced.
Remove battery lid and put it back on again, making sure its proper on

This is a pretty common issue for custom roms. And in most custom rom, they should be fixed already.
In my opinion, the problem you are facing is most likely rom related issue, so it is best you go back to the thread where u downloaded the rom and browse through to see fixes. Or simply update to the latest version of your rom.

well i went through the forum and to my surprise or unfortune no one has reported abt the issue i m facing. and i checked the rom official site,the rom i m using is indeed the latest stable rom, i even checked my phone's wifi antenna its not hampered or has moved from its position.

You can try re-downloading cm7.2rc3. If it doesn't work, download cm7.2rc2 to see if it works, restore your apps after you find out if it's working. That rom is Gb and shouldn't be having those issues.

Well this is what I ve done.I was using cynogenmod rc2. I flashed rc3 hoping this would fix the issue. So thing is if i flash it back to rc2 it would not add up to solution.

Sent from a dream.

let me explain in a very explicit manner possible. i was using cynogenmod 7.2rc2 long back with same wifi problem so some user on xda advised me to update the rom to latest version ;7.2rc3, so i did the update.but when i started facing same problem with 7.2rc3, i reported this in a post on xda to which u replied to downgrade the rom to rc2. but as i ve aforementioned that before reporting it on xda i was using 7.2rc2 version with the same wifi problem so corollary of this is if i downgrade it back to rc2 there ll b no difference except i ve to redownload my apps and configure settings.

and one thing more i ve re-flashed the cynogenmod7.2rc3 but that also does not work.

Just want to make sure. You re-downloaded the file and flashed with a clean install and the same problem happens, right?
Sent from a dream.

yes i downloaded the file from cynogenmod official page. and did all the recommended steps like wiping cache,formatting,wipinkg dalvik cache and wiping battery stats.

I just did a quick search and couldn't find anything either.
When you try to use the usb or wifi tethering, to what are you connecting to? to a laptop? what operating system are you using on the laptop if such is the case?

yes i m connecting to a laptop. its dell n5010. os is windows 7 ultimate 64bit.

Damn, I accidentally thanked you. I was saving that one since it was going to be the 100th thanks I was going to give.
Go to the market, download cat log or any other way you prefer to create a logcat and post it in the cyanogen forum, or here see if someone can help. I'm thinking it's something particular to your phone/radio/service provider.
I'll flash the rom either tonight when I get home or tomorrow when I have some time. But I doubt I'll be able to reproduce the same issue.
Edit: have you tried fixing permissions in 4ext recocery or whatever you use? Sometimes it helps.

[CM9] Speed up WiFi ..?

Hello !
I remember I flashed another Kernel on CM9 and my WiFi was faster afterwards.
But then I flashed some other Roms etc.
And I lost this one Kernel / Baseband.
If I flash CM9, my WiFi is very very slow ! I google "BMW M6" and it's loading 5 minutes..! What the heck...
Also see: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=milU7dXQd7c&feature=plcp"
or
I've already searched for ages now, so I decided to ask over here...
Hope someone can help me
I tried to change the Country Code to DE, as I live in Germany via WiFix... Did'nt work.
Anything I can do to speed up the WiFi speed..?
I mean, CM9/CM10 is incredibly fast. I love the design, the speed, but hate the WiFi speed.
Im living in germany...
Anyone able to help me..?

Yes it´s possible. However I recently flashed XXLMB and the power consumption incrased in CM9. And because I flashed it togehter with it´s Modem, I also lost HDSPA. Now I´m back to XXKL3 like b4 and all is fine. HDSPA is also working again.
You need to flash either a firmware which contains the needed Baseband with Odin, or just and extracted Baseband. Then simply restore your backup of your CM9 build.

My frustration with the wifi

I did everything you can think of but nothing helped!
When i first bought the phone the wifi worked perfectly with the stock rom. After a couple of months i upgraded to CWM9 beta1, everything was okay except the wifi;
They told me Wifix would fix the problem; it didnt (only worked sometimes)
I upgraded to Beta2 hoping that might solve the issue... it didnt.
They said you have to change the baseband, i went back to stock rom with the latest release from samsung, stock Rom (2.3.6) Wifi worked perfectly.
I upgraded again to CWM9 beta2 hoping this new baseband would help... still wifi didnt work.
I changed my baseband to XXLM8... still no wifi
I changed my rom to Remics, this time very hopeful, promising my family this might work (because they use my wifi~ thats why i say its really important for me) and STILL it doesnt work.
Wifi only works with stock rom and nothing else! And i dont like the stock rom, i want ics. This problem is frustrating me! Please can anyone find out the solution? PLEASE! I dont have the budget to buy a new phone with stock ics i have to fix THIS phone!
Thanks in advance,

Try reflashing the rom and did you follow the instructions precisely? Because i had use cm9 beta 2 the wifi works fine even no need for wifix. And now i use indroid remics still the wifi works fine. I already try all ics based rom and all of them shows no problem with wifi dude.

I have the same problem dude... Always had this problem with ICS.. I tried really everything I read... and nothing really worked
Is your WiFi Connection as slow as mine on the Video ?
Seems like it works for a lot of people, because I haven't seen many people talking about WiFi Problems in ICS. Im from Germany.. Maybe there are different WiFi codes/drivers what ever, over here..?
I stopped flashing and trying all Roms out.. Im on FAW, bought an iPod Shuffle for music, and the Wonder to communicate with people, gf etc.
Perfect option for me.

It seldomly works... seldomly... and thats when i use Wifix. Without wifix it never works!
I haven't tried with another router but, stock rom works perfectly, ics doesnt work; that suggests prblm is not hardware but software instead.
I have an idea, what if i extract the "wifi program" of my stock rom from root, and put it instead of the wifi program in ics? Will that work? Is it possible?

i dont know, i havent tested on videos. There must be an explanation...

hey! what if i copy the wifi apk from my root, and install it instead of the wifi apk on cm9?

Try to flash CM9 beta 3, but this time before flashing, format system.

same problem also. but as for me wifi off when screen off. sometimes need to off wifi first then on back to get signal. stock rom dint have this problem.
maybe its ics common problem.

I'm using CM9b3 and never have that problem. Granted, I have never upgraded my baseband, and my CM9b3 is 'Pristine' (did a *complete* wipe, including the SD memories).
Try changing your baseband and/or doing an ICS Pristine Install.

[Q] $100 to the man who fixes my wifi

Try another kernel ? Make sure you use aosp version of the kernel. What exactly is the problem with wifi ?
Sent from my GT-N7100

I tried the Zoot's wipe you suggested earlier, didn't fix the problem. Tried a few different kernels, all bootlooped.
The wifi takes a very long time scanning for networks, and won't connect to any network (unsecured, WEP, WPA, nothing). Works perfect on roms mentioned in first post, but not on 4.1.2 based PA.

Why do you want pa ? For per-app-dpi ? Well that can be done on normal phone also.

Sent from my GT-N7100

Try to change the flash root file. Look for cwm6-root-n7100 and flash it through Odin. It should work fine after that. Good Luck =D

Wow $100. Just trying to help only.
Odin back to original stock rom. Check all connection its ok or not.
Check ur note 2 version *#1234# and also imei *#06#.
Flash pa according to ur note2 version.
Check ur imei.
Flash kernel n modem based on ur note2 version.

I've tried all these things and none of them make wifi work for me on cm10 4.1.2 based roms. I don't think the problem is as simple as changing a setting or root/recovery, because simply flashing a different rom (TW 4.1.2 or 4.2 based PA) fixes the wifi issue entirely.
The $100 offer still applies to any developer who knows what the problem is and can provide files & specific instructions on how to fix the wifi connection issues I have with 4.1.2 based PA roms. Until then I'm gonna run an unofficial PA3 rom, with zero wifi issues.

Try this
First do a mega wipe.
Then flash the latest stock rom for your country.
Then do a mega wipe again.
Then flash aosp kernel(redpill or uneak)
Then flash pa .
Then flash gapps.
Try all the aosp kernels.
Try previous versions of the rom.
Try different versions of gapps.

I have a feeling you have the wrong kernel. Try finding the correct kernel for your baseband. Can you also take a screenshot of what is happening?

In Settings it says the baseband is N7100XXDLK7. This is probably because I've since flashed a stock rom from Dr. Ketan's thread. The label on the retail box says N7100ZNDXSG (but it doesn't say that's the baseband).
Are there AOSP kernels made for specific basebands?
Wifi works perfectly with every rom I've tried except anything CM10 4.1.2 based. The screen tear happened the same way with PA 2.99, and the same neak kernel fixed it, but there was never a problem with wifi on 2.99

Have you flashed isolated baseband from working rom?
If you have stock rom, extract tar and you will find modem.bin and flash it using odin for 'phone' tab
Just for safety make nandroid backup before it.

Isolated, no. Are you saying that flashing a rom zip via CWM overwrites the existing baseband?
At this point, the unofficial PA 3.1 is working for me where the official PA 2.99 wasn't.....so the $100 offer is no more. Thanks everyone for trying to help me fix the problem, but now I've got the phone set up how I wanted with another rom.

Couple of Issues

Hello, I have Samsung Galaxy S Glide AKA Samsung Captivate Glide, Rooted to 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) with ATT Rogers Rom. Kernel Version is 3.1.10
Basically the problem that I have is when I am at school and have my WiFi on I lose connection. I have to keep turning on and off my WiFi because the orange down arrow stops as I only get upload then. I heard its because there are many routers at my school therefore it has problems.
Also when I log in to snapchat, snapchat minimizes it self and goes back to my app screen no error was giving it didn't even say snapchat has stop responding.

Sounds like a kernel (or better kernel wifi module) issue.
Try CM or sediROM.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Kind of odd that WiFi works at home perfectly fine but not at school. Should I update the Kernel first with keeping the ATT Rogers Rom? or should I just totally update the Rom to sediROM or CM?

Well that depends on your own. I strongly believe that this is a kernel issue so you could start with that. The sediROM installer contains all available ICS kernels but you should not use the installer when you do not want to INSTALL/MODIFY a sediROM installation. But within the sediROM zip so after extracting it you will find several kernels/bootimages in /custom/..../ (don't know the exact subdir atm) but you will see it.
But BEWARE: you can easily at least softbrick your phone if you do a mistake or choosing the wrong kernel. So if you don't know how to unbrick or if you really depend on your phone you should think twice the same for installing a custom ROM like CM or sediROM of course (even the risk of failures are minimal here)!
Do never skipping backups of device,efs, etc regardless which way you want to go! Get familar with unbricking your device and keep adb in place.

1: pls contact snapchat support. Seems to be not a problem of ROM or phone
2: well you can try other ROMs until you find a good one. Or you could give sediROM a try if you like. After installation test wifi. If it is not fine you can restart the installer (like reflash but then choose "modify mode" in the setup screen) and choose another kernel there.
Test wifi and if it is not fine restart that procedure with another kernel!
If you want to try the 2.0 BETA write me a PM it contains even more kernels. That way you could try all available kernels to find the one which is best working for you.
