Awesome, thank you for this. I was having similar problems with mine after the Froyo flash too. I'll give it a shot.
I've been using Froyo since DG posted the link to JI6...and I've never had this issue. I use wifi on a daily basis. Weird.
Super weird...what would your android id have to do with wifi?
Oh and this belongs in general!

I didn't have any issues until Cog 2.5.5. Once I flashed it my wifi just quit on me. I tried going back to stock Froyo to see if that was the problem, but no luck. As soon as I changed my device ID to what I had on Eclair everything got fixed.
I was having the same problem. I found a workaround that doesn't require changing anything on your phone. I accessed my router settings, changed the security type from WEP to WPA2 and the phone obtained the IP address immediately. Hopefully this will help out those of you who aren't familiar or comfortable with flashing your device yet.

Thanks for the info. Decent work around. I would still like to resolve the issue, but for now this works.
I did all of the steps in the original post, but it did not correct the issue. Actually made my phone worse. Now I cannot get into download mode, and I'm on Cognition beta 8 and my GPS does not work. It was working on Froyo leak, but had these same wifi issues.
This workaround is not working on my fios router. It is working on my netgear router at work. I'm not that well-versed to explain either situation. I just don't like hitting my data plan when I was getting wifi before 2.2 flash. And even then, it was working for a few weeks.
I ve flashed my phone and everythjng works great till one day when I wasn't able to connect to my wi fi at home (using wep key). But at my office works like a charm with wpa key.
If you are still having issues with your wifi after using the two work arounds mentioned in this thread I would reccomend flashing back to stock JF6, doing a master clear and reflash your current ROM. I would not suggest restoring system data using TiBU after doing the master clear as this could carry over your wifi issues. Yes I know it sucks to have to redo all your settings, but if it gets your wifi working then I would say it's worth it. After you restore your apps and such reapply the first fix that I mentioned to change your device ID back.
I did all the steps you mentioned in the first post. But I dont see any Android_id entry in secure tab.
I am using sqlitebrowser to edit settings.db file.
I am getting wi-fi getting Ip address error after installing odin3 1 click froyo update for captivate.
any other alternatives?

Has anyone tried assigning a fixed ip address, this worked for me.
Some people have had success addressing this issue utilizing the app Wifi Static".
For me, it was due to some zombie ap that I did forget. Ever since, my froyo got back to normal. The ap is svuwired.

Don't see why you have to do all that. Just flash back to stock and wifi works again.
I'm using a stock Froyo (official release , rooted)
when connecting to a Linksys N150 router, Im stuck at 'obtaning IP Address'
it's the same whether there is no password, WEP, WPA
on a linksys WRT54GH I can connect without problems, but oftentimes even if the phone shows that I'm connected via Wifi, there is no data coming through. I will need to disconnect and reconnect to my router
on both setups, I am able to connect and surf using my ipod touch (4th gen, on ios 4.1)
this is especially frustrating for me because there are 3 Galaxy S users in the house (the other two are my sisters, who bought the phone because of me)
HEEEELLLP
hey guys, i have the same problem and tried to fix it by editing the device id .. but my device id is same as from what i have noted down... plzz help me guys
Has anyone gotten this type of corporate secured wifi to work successfully? I log in with A D credentials and IP address is assigned but can't browse out to internet. I have tried several roms and kernels to no avail. My Droid X works fine without any modifications. Anyway to pull from a Droid X the kernel etc that allows it to work and port it to the g tablet? This tablet would be very useful for in my office. thanks to you who help the clueless.
I am also having this problem as well, in trying to connect the G-Tab to a WiFi network on a college campus. I've already consulted with a few tech experts there, and also used instructions which were written up for that campus' tech site.
The problem I have having is that when I try to connect to "UIC-WiFi" there is nothing on the G-Tab wireless networks menu that states anything about changing the
"credential settings." All I see is something about "visible passwords," and "Factory Reset."
Is there a way this can be enabled?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you are running the g tab with no hacks. The software out of the box does not have the necessary menus to enter the wifi information for our network type. You can either load a custom ROM from here or download Wifi Advanced Configuration Editor app for free from market which will give you the fields as well. I have all the settings field but it just doesn't work as it matches my Droid X exactly which works fine. This post will probably get buried as I guess no one else has the problem or cares. I hope I helped you at least.

Glad to help. I wish I could figure out what the issue is with mine though. log or something to tell me where it is failing after trying to get out to three internet.
Hello. My phone connects when I go to other people's houses or at school, but not at my house. My router is set up with a WiFi access list so that you need to enter the MAC address before being allowed to even see the network. I have triple checked that the WiFi MAC address from my phone is entered correctly as I did everything else. Does anyone have some advice?
I appreciate everyone's time!
Make sure the channel is set to one which your device supports.
I downloaded an app called wifi analyzer; will that help me find which channel to set it to? How do I know which are supported.

Go to the wifi settings (on your device) and see what channel it is set to (usually under regulatory domain).
maybe you should set the maximum number of channels, otherwise some routers might be excluded.
controls which channel is your router and then try to configure the connection manually.
Sorry for the late reply; I have been pretty busy.
I tried a variety of different channels but none of them seem to work. I had seen that the phone does not work on Channel 13 but that did not seem to be the problem. I have also tried changing the security password type on my router but that did not work either. Are there any other suggestions? Thank you again.
your router is wireless network is to advanced for phone allow you network to be seen and just have to enter a password to work it will work been there
ps when it works hit thanks please

I'm assuming you did... but just in case, you did hit the "Wifi Protected Setup" on the phone right?
I swear i'm not trying to make you sound like an idiot, but we all have our "oh damn i forgot about that" moments, know what i mean? lol
Lol no problem. But yes I did do that
i'm also assuming then that you took ALL security off your network, leaving it open with no password, and that didnt work either.
past that, I don't know what to tell you. some routers are better than others.... maybe yours just hates you?

Check your Login-configuration and test it again.
And by the way, my One S also works in our network.
If it helps, thats the howto of our network and i think it would work with your network: https://wiki.hs-mittweida.de/index.php/Eduroam-Einrichtung_unter_Android

WPA2 Enterprise works at my uni, even the certificate for the login was already on the device (HTC One S)
I didn't trie the eduroam network but it uses the exact same configuration, so it should work as well.
Maybe you can ask an admin at your school about the certificate the use for authentification
i dont know what i do if it doesnt connect :/,inviting the friends who have one s maybe the solution

did you check the certificate? ask your admin which certificate they use for authentification and mail it to your device if its not already installed by default

HI. Today I updated my non-rooted HTC Desire S to ICS 4.0.4 (3.0.16-gce03037 Kernel) from official site... Everything is working fine, but I have problem using the WIFI connection.
I can enable/disable WiFi, I have no problems with OS freezing when I switch on or off wireless, etc. I configured it properly (I did not restore any settings from my backup software) and manually, and in status bar I can see that network is connected. It seems that everything is working fine but:
1. I cannot access the Internet from the phone
2. My access point does not list my HTC as connected device at all
I am desperate because this is the only thing that is not working after upgrade, and I use WiFi a lot
Thank you all for helping regarding this.

I don't know if it is the same issue i was experiencing some time ago, but seems that older Wi-Fi router have some problems with ics roms and later versions (jelly bean). I have resolved by changing my router but you could try specificy a static ip address for your phone and see if it works.

I already have a static IP defined. Also my WiFi is protected with AES. Is there any way to keep ICS on HTC and to degrade only driver for the WiFi?

No, I don't think so, but maybe the AES encryption could be the problem. Try swiching to WPA or WPA2 and see if it works.

Well, no. You could still try to root your phone, install a Jelly Bean based Rom and specify a static IP. JB is slightly better with WiFi than ICS so I think this is your last call.
Otherwise you can still use the pass-through internet option is "Stock option" of the Rom settings, but this means that the phone must be plugged in the PC.

Is there any 3rd party software which can manage WiFi chip? Something like option in MS Windows, where you can choose Windows to manage wireless or vendor application. Maybe it is not a firmware problem, maybe it is something with ICS subsystem/application which handles WiFi...

Not from my knowledge. You can try downloading wifix from the market, for some users has worked, but not for me.

OK, now things are getting very weird!
First of all, I tried with "wifix" and bunch of other market "wifi fix apps", but with no success. After that I connected to my WiFi and try to ping my laptop which resides on the same AP and.... with SUCCESS! I looked at my AP statistics and I cannot still observe that my HTC is connected to the AP, but I could ping the laptop and default gateway (which is AP of course). I tried to do SSH to the HTC and that was successful too. It seems that my WIFI is working only locally, because when I try to ping public IP I get the destination unreachable error message. On the ifconfig's interface statistics I can see Rx and Tx counters increases on the wlan0 interface, but on the AP I still cannot see that my HTC is connected.
I looked up in to the routing table, and there was everything as should be. I am sure that there is no IP address conflict inside my network, I am sure that my HTC is authenticated and connected on the right wireless channel.
Guys, this issue is very weird, can somebody give some hint about it?
Please, see attachments there is much more info regarding this.

Ok, here is the update in attachment, it seems that I have problem on the layer 3 of the OSI model. I think that I can summarize the following:
1. Radio is working
2. All MAC layer things are also fine
3. Encryption is ok
4. IP packets transportation between the HTC and router is not working.
I am not good with linux, and my phone is not rooted.What can I do to troubleshoot this part of the networking now?
Hello to all again.
Believe or not I still have the same problem. HTC support is USELESS... I tried with factory reset, and I still got a problem. I am loosing patience now... Can somebody tell me how to revert back to previous OS, please? Where to download, and how to install it?
