[Q] Wifi Not working - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I had installed the Wireless N update so my phone can get Wireless N I then did a speed test and got about 11 MBPS then when I Flashed it back to Normal used the "Disable_Wireless_N.zip" my Wifi would not turn on.. it says "error" and doesn't explain why..?? Also After i disabled the Wireless N my tethering stopped working aswell.. I wiped and re-flashed the WImax and the Enable_wireless_N.zip. i also restored nand and re-flashed the kernel.. and still my Wifi wont turn on.. What can i do to fix it?

check if the wpa_supplicant.conf file (data/misc/wifi) is not read only . a chmod 777 on that file might just fix the wifi error

Lost wifi after 3.1, help

Hey,
I recently flashed BRD's 3.1 zip's and now ive seemed to have lost my wifi :/ if im just viewing my open network it shows full bars but when i go to connect it drops to 1 and just cycles through the connection process without ever finishing
I followed the instructions to the t and remembered to wipe / factory reset
I also went through the steps once more to see if the reflash would work but its just stuck on the connection to wifi network page
maybe i have a bad download???
EDIT: reflashed onneee more time and it seems to be working apps are restoring now
any help would be much appreciated
thanks

This is what worked for me:
1) Go into Settings > Wireless & networks < Wi-Fi settings.
2) Press on the current network and select "Forget" to delete it.
3) Press Add-Wi-Fi network, then manually enter all of your info. Don't forget to enter the Security type & password.
4) Touch Save. It should then connect and stay connected.
EDIT: Oops just saw you resolved it by re-flashing. However the method I described worked for me when mine could not connect to my network (which I originally configured during the installation setup). This happened to me more than once, and on more than one device too.

(Solved) wifi broken after build 59 update

Flashed the new build 59 today and my WiFi broke. It stays on "WiFi is turning on" but never actually does. I would prefer not to do a factory reset and I have already tried to delete the dhcp and WiFi folders in data/misc. Any thoughts?
Update: flashed the system.IMG file through adb and it kept my data/fixed the issue.

Nexus 5 wifi stuck on turning on

I was using my rooted Android 6.0 with that kernel chainfire uploaded here on xda with the supersu 2.52 beta, and it was working fine for a few days until my wifi started to stop working, turn off, then turn on after a few seconds, lag, reboot, turn off, on, off, on until it stopped working. Putting the phone to airplane mode then back to normal or safe reboot could get it work for 10 minutes and not every time.
Solutions I have tried and didn't work:
Reflashed android 6 without wiping data
Factory Reset android 6
Flash 5.1.1 with wiping data
Clear Dalvik Cache
echo -ne the .macaddr file
delete the wpa_supplicant files
Nothing worked. When I dial *#*#4636#*#*, wifi state shown "UN-INITIALIZED"
What to do! I need to fix my wifi and can't afford a repair shop, and I'm out of warranty and outside the US so can't return it.

I just started to have the exact same issue last night. Wifi won't come on and if it does my phone reboots. There is a thread about it on Google Nexus help forums: https://productforums.google.com/fo...ification#!msg/nexus/yx5kGasv2lE/Pbx5KNQjCAAJ

Nexus 5 WiFi problem with Marshmallow
Hello, after updating my Nexus 5 to Android 6.0 the Wi-fi is no longer working. It keeps trying to connect but never actually turns on the Wi-Fi or show any networks. I've turned it on in Safe Mode and it still has the same issue.
Please help!

I tried that but didnt' help. Almost every time I turn the wifi on my N5 eventually reboots. I did have wifi connect for a few minutes today to my 5Ghz wifi but then failed for no reason.
I am guessing the wifi chip has burnt out or its some other hardware/software problem. My N5 is a day 1 shipped phone and had no other issues with it. Such a bummer....

So its probably not the same issue. Did you tried all bands? Is it doing the same thing on different rooter brands?

Did you tried the option in the developer menu I was talking in my post above, it fixed my wifi problem caused by Android 6.0
this problem is severe
i have Nexus 5
Since ive updated to stock 6.0.1 (Build M4B30Z) my wifi has stopped working completely
Things ive tried
- ROOT, delete wifi persist folder (Wifi works but requires restart once wifi stops working)
- Lineage OS (Wifi works here but requires multiple restarts)
- Revert to Stock versions 4.4.4 and 5.1
- Heat gun over Wifi Chip (doesnt work at all) may be ive done it the wrong way
any suggestions to restore my phone
