I would like to use unofficial CM11 by @Mustaavalkosta or taktik by @randomblame for daily driver but no matter what I tried i couldn't fix weak/poor wifi reception/signal problem with CM based ROMs out there. I have flashed the latest radio for my desire HD (12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11_M) but still have the same issue. On the other hand, if I flash a sense ROM like SVHD v2.1.0 or stock HTC, wifi works flawless and I don't have poor wifi signal issue. So that means problem is actually not related to the radio version, right? It would be rather due to a glitch on CM based ROMs maybe?
Does anyone have any idea why this could happen with CM based ROMs? Does anyone experienced weak wifi signal reception issue with CM based ROMs before?
for me it works fine on cm based roms, i never used cm directly, but nexus 5 experience has excellent wifi signal for my dhd

Thanks for the reply. I will give it a try and see if the wifi signal will be good for me too.

Wi-Fi speed is good? For me, it is very slow.

I've tried about many ROM's such as miui, CM7, decks, etc.... I've had no luck, the wifi is just so horrible in many places where in a sense ROM I'd have perfect wifi or good, compared to poor wifi disconnecting after a while.
Thanks for reading Anyone have a solution?
I use CM7 and have absolutely no problem with my wifi. Have you tried CM7? If so, have you tried anything else?

Yeah I've tried it just bit ago and the past days as well but I'm sure it isn't a hardware issue because on nrg 3.5 rom from Nov18 my wifi works perfect where I would I couldn't get wifi signal at all on cm.
The problem is that sense doesn't show the right signal. Compare the speeds and you'll see what I mean

It has nothing to do with speed, please read what I said... I lose signal on aosp ROM's on common areas that I get nearly excellent coverage in, note I tested this with airplane mode on to ensure my wifi doesn't disconnect and switch to 3G. A couple of other others on the miui thread have also said that same.
I'm using the new aosp ROM ice cream sandwich for my phone and wifi works like a charm. Using it now

I'm guessing it has a new kernel? I will flash it tomorrow to see how it works, just to clarify, you are talking about the alpha build right?

I don't think you understand what I said. Sense shows the wrong wifi signal. It shows 3 bars for me while aosp shows 1. Aosp shows true signal because I am far from the router
Having trouble with AOSP? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295702
Are you using the included kernel or flashing custom ones? While your signal may show lower, you shouldn't notice a drop in actual connectivity. Flashing an incompatible kernel, like a Sense kernel, can mess up your wifi.
I'm on MIUI right now showing a full wifi signal. I haven't used Sense in a very long time, but I don't remember getting better wifi reception while I was using it. I'm using Tiamat right now, maybe try a different kernel next time you flash AOSP and see if that helps. There are also a few tweaks you can do to help with your wifi signal, like changing the wifi scan interval in build.prop, but I haven't actually done anything like that since my signal is fine.

I've been sticking to the stock kernel that the ROM's have and savaged. I'll give the tiamat kernel a try with miui, what Tiamat version are you using so I can try it if not maybe I'll try getting a phone replacement to see if I might have a fault or evil mojo evo that hates aosp lol! hardware 004 here.

I've heard that 004s can be problematic, I have a 003 and only get issues when I go a while without wiping fully. I'm using 4.1.0 right now, start there and maybe try other versions if you want. I ran SZ for a while and it started off smooth but eventually got laggy and unresponsive at times despite anything I would do (wiping caches, etc). Switched back to Tiamat and all has been working well since.
Give it a go, if it doesn't work for you then maybe it's some kind of hardware issue. Just to be sure, do a full wipe and try to avoid restoring anything unless you absolutely have to - definitely don't restore system data. Unfortunately you can't take your phone in to Sprint and get a replacement since your wifi is dodgy on AOSP. If it happened on stock then you might have a case.

I've been using the tiamat for now and it seems more stable on wifi, funny though, the wifi seemed bad on the default miui kernel. I also moved my router to a higher place on a shevel with nothing steel or bad around it. Oh and don't worry my local sprint store in Los angeles is a big time Hispanic corporate... they replace devices for any complaining here to avoid issues with the people lol! I got to love it.
Edit: you are leet according to your post count ahaha.

Hi
I have an issue with very low WIFI signal on AOSP roms, searching the forums brought me to a solution on stock roms - *#001# to disable the wifi power saving option.
Do AOSP based Roms have a similar setting which i should be tweaking. I have had this problem on both Cm10 nightlies & AOKP.
I have tried various kernels without any luck.
I don't think it is a hardware issue coz on stock i am getting very good wifi signals.
Thanks

Id like to know as well. My wifi only works on stockroms.
I am a Big supporter of the CM Team and how they were able to give New Life to my old Epic 4G. Great job!
The problem I am having started when I moved from using CM9 to CM10 After doing a Factory Reset "clean" install... I primary use my Epic 4G as a Wifi Hotspot for my Xoom WIFI tablet which is using Team EOS3 Nightly ROMs. Now I never had ANY WiFi (speed) related problems using the CM9 version as long as I had a good signal. When I upgraded to CM10 I was able to enable the WiFi HotSpot but web browsing was extremely slow and had timeout issues to the point where it is completely frustrating and unusable. The issues due not seem to be depended on the phone's signal strength and I have not been able to resolve the problem. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
Thank you in advance,
I have something similar. It seem to have began after the 11/19 nightly for me. The range of my connection seem to have decreased. Or if it is connected with -70 and below on Wifi Analyzer, it may get not data or very slow speeds, and timeout issues.
I have not seen any kernel changes from bbelos, so maybe it is something else in the CM nightly changes?
I am currently on 11/29 nightly, stock kernel.

I am on the nightly from 12/3, and I can't get the wifi tether to work regardless of what I try (have set it up with open, WPA2, used Auto and Device specific for Epic 4G) - nothing seems to get it to work.
Is there another modem or anything else I should try? I tried to post on the CM10 forum, but as I'm new, I'm not allowed to.

Don't use an app, there is an option in settings>more>Tethering & portable hotspot
I can't even get it to work with the built in option. It acts like there is no internet.
Hello All, I am facing an issue whereby my WiFi reception is nearly hopeless after I updated to CM10.1. Anybody got a fix for this?
Hi,
i am facing the same issue. My Wifi is nearly down to no connection althoug I am only 2meters away from my router. I tried installing a new Baseband-version (Endeavoru_Radio_5.1204.162.29) but still no change.
I have CyanogenMod 10.1 with Android 4.2.2 on my HTC One X.
Any suggestions would be great!
Thanks
JamFX1
Same Issue
I have exactly the same problem as the 2 of you. Have either of you manages to sort this out ?
I'm also having WiFi problems with my HTC One X (running CM10.2). I can connect to a network and after a minute or so the connection is dropped... Other forums suggest it's an HTC issue but since I'm running CM10.2 I suspect it's something else. Any pointers are appreciated.

Its not an HTC issue im sure of it. Too many people have this problem only with the Cyanogenmod. The stock rom has no issues. I tested. Im on the latest RC version and it also has that problem. Get more than 3 meters away from the router and BAM. no signal

Well I have swapped roms to test. The stock rom works perfect with regard to wifi. Not a huge deal for me, but would be nice to get this working.
Hello there everyone,
So, I flashed the CM11 M11 --> cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-m8.zip yesterday on my HTC One M8 and everything went smooth as silk.
The only issues I'm having right now are:
1) Mobile signal strength is very unstable, especially on LTE, it can just randomly drop from full bar to nothing and then back again. I know this is software related since on my stock Sense 6.0 I had perfect reception no mater where I go. My M8 is the Asian model (M8x), it's basically the same and it's GSM unlocked but of course have support in different bands. Any ideas what can be the problem? By the way, on Sense 6.0 I use to see the "4G" icon and now it's LTE, does it matter?
2) WiFi would randomly just freeze - it looks like it's working and signal is great but there would be no internet connection. Never happened to me before using this ROM.
Any help would be appreciated since I LOVE CM11 so far.
Thanks,
Nimi.
It's either an issue for people, and reading the last several pages of the rom thread would have talk of it if it's a bug.... Or it just is what it is.
I'd just try another rom and see how that is. ?
same problem
