WiFi worked no problem on stock 2.3.3, when i bought the phone. as soon as i put on cm7, my wifi never works. I can go into settings and turn it on, but it never prompts me to select an available network, and then automatically shuts off after about 30 seconds or so. I have continually update to the latest nightly, and wiped cache, yet it still has not fixed itself. any help would be greatly appreciated.
I had the same issue.

Try the RC and see if u get it working
If not, backup, wipe data + cache and do a fresh install of the latest nightly and seevif it works then

Exactly what the subject says. I tried clearing all data in the market app but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I'm running stock 2.2.2 with an OC kernel. Any help would be appreciated.

What are the symptoms that you are experiencing when you try to download an app
Sent From My Stock G2x
It says "Your item will be downloaded," after which the download bar appears. It disappears after a second as if the download had never even begun.

Try deleting dalvik cache, fix permissions. Turn off the phone for few minutes, turn it back on.
Did this started to happen after flashing kernel?
Make sure you are in a good reception area as well.

I think it did happen after kernel flashing. Sounds like a good idea. I'll try that and if it doesn't work I'll try reflashing Google apparently. I've noticed authentication errors. Barring that it's back to stock. Thanks for the advice

Same thing happened to me.. I fixed permission from Rom manager then reboot.
Now its working fine.
Just tried that myself. It seems to be working again

This same exact thing happened to me after changing kernels. I went back to stock and it was still happening. Four hours later everything was fine again. Weird.
Not only do you need to clear market data.. But make sure you clear 'download manager' data too in applications
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
The problem started up again and continued after flashing back to stock. Someone else said that in this thread. I'll try the download manager wipe suggestion too. Thanks for all the input. I'm on a wifi network with a strong signal so it's a stable connection... Aaaaaand... starting download... still starting download... still still starting... At least it's doing something. I'll check back in later. Thanks again!
If I wipe dalvik cache, cache, fix permissions, and reboot after letting the phone sit for 10 minutes I can download four or five apparently after which the problem returns. I've also noticed that Google talk can't seem to log in.

i am running AOSP EB v4.0.4 latest build. when i flashed v4 last month i started having this strange problem whenever i turn wifi on. the wifi appears to complete the connection then immediately drops it and retries the connection.
i thought it was the old baseband (since the installer offers support for both old and new BB's) so i upgraded to the march 2012 BB tonight and reflashed from scratch...same problem. i checked but there are no new software updates for my router so i'm ruling that out.
any ideas? considering my phone is literally empty of all files i cannot see what the difficulty may be.

I don't clearly understand what ur saying, does your connection only drop when u turn ur wifi on? Or does it randomlly disconnect sometimes and ur talking about ur data connection right not ur wifi connection?

when i turn on wifi, select my router and enter passcode it starts thisloop. i can see it go through all the init steps of establishing a connection. once it is done literally the next step is to start the whole process over again reconnecting from scratch to the router.

Ohh ok makes sense I had the same problem but I think it was when I was running open kang, and when I switched roms and was fixed. Kinda dumb suggestion but restart phone?

Have you tried a different router? I have a belkin and that thing is a pos, constantly giving me problems
Also, if your router doesn't have wpa (or some form of authentication) then enable it and try again. Sometimes that's helped me

you dont have to clear everything twice only the once when u flash your rom, and then go straight to flashing gapps. that shouldnt affect the problem your having but try flashing another rom and then EB AOSP again and see if it works i know that EB doesnt have wifi problems cause i used it before.
Might be nothing more than a weak wifi signal or a confused router. Occasionally get this behavior on my stock g2x with all updates. Try logging on from a location closer to the router. Unplugging the router to let it reboot also sometimes solves the problem.

There's usually a button on your router you can press to connect things to it you should try that as well

Different kernel
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
Hi guys, i have a problem here, i followed this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Glacier:_Full_Update_Guide everything went smooth
i had to dowgrade as the page says as it had already gingerbread, every step went smooth, then i booted and everything apparently fine, except when i turn on my wifi it autoshuts down after some seconds (the wifi not the phone).
tried 7.2 latest nightly and same thing.
please help
this is a tmobile unit
htc mytouch 4g (aka glacier right?)
note: backed up as directed but upon restore i just get an md5 error so no going back
currently this info is shoing:
android version 2.3.7
baseband 12.28b.60.14eU_26.03.02.26_M
kernel 2.6.35.14 cyanogenmod-g295e82f
mod version cyanogenmod 7.20120909-nightly-glacier
Same problem here. I'm also using a CM7 nightly.
Under Wifi Advanced settings, its showing MAC address as unavailable. So far I've tried a "wifi fixer" on the android market, and I opened up the phone to check the two cables for Wifi.
Try reflashing probably a bad download or u can flash a new Rom such has android revolution or insert coin I recommend these Rom because they gingerbread an are most stable for glacier an really smooth

Be sure you're doing a complete wipe before flashing a ROM. Check out 4EXT recovery, as it has an option for wiping all partitions.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda app-developers app
Thanyou, i think I have done wipe, as instructed on link, I followed exactly, maybe is not the rom as I have tried at least 3 cm versions, and 2 non cyanm, I returned to stock (downgrade version, 2.2) and still no luck, but I havnt tried the one it had, stock, 2.3, I have reflashed many times, this is a used phone, that I am unlocking for a friend, and while I was on it he asked for a rom, he got this cheap, and was not using it because of carrier lock, but I actually never checked if wifi was working before flashing it, so probably its just broken and that is why he got it so cheap lol (like 40 bucks) wil trry ota 2.3 and the others you guys suggested, just to exhaust possibilities,, but not with much hope, ty both for taking the time to answer

in my case I can't go to advanced, as it is only available when wifi is on, and I'm not fast enough to setup a network before out turns off, I cheeked someone with same problem on tmobile forums, no root, no flash,.regular ota, support said that if just factoiry reset with no sd, and before installing anything then its phone problem and needs to be replaced,
Any idea how to fix this piece of wifi hardware, are there available spare wifi chips or something? (i obviously can't return to tmobile a is used , phone from a foreign country :$
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
Weird thing is that wifi tethering works fine. Also I started noticing this problem after switching back to Gingerbread from ICS. I've reflashed several times with the other luck.

So I feel as if I've been having poor GPS on any rom, whether it be AOKP, CM or even Stock based. I've tried a few apps to know luck. Using Waze yesterday, it was dropping in and out as I was going down a highway. Currently I'm using Eclipse rom on my phone. And I've tried flashing roms with TWRP and CWM with the same results.
The only thing I'm doing differently is running a 4.2 gapps made for 4.1.2 roms, could this be causing the issue?
Or should I just go root66 and redo everything?

I experience the same issue with AOKP, CM, and stock roms. I can get a GPS lock if my phone is on the dashboard of my car, but it goes in and out if the phone is sitting on my lap. This makes it very difficult to use the S3 for turn by turn navigation. I haven't had any problems while running Eclipse though.
Try this! Worked for me. Found this somewhere on XDA
1. Download "GPS Test" from the play store
2. Turn on your GPS and open the app
3. Press the menu button and go to settings
4. Press "Clear AGPS" at the top (your phone might reboot)
5. After that go back to settings and "Update AGPS"
Or this (also worked for me - from some XDA post):
"like some of you, i too was having GPS lock issues. here's what i did which fixed it for me. can't guarantee anything, but might be worth your try.
go to application manager - click on 'mapservicesamsung' - force stop - back out then click on 'maps' - force stop - clear cache - clear data - reboot into recovery - wipe dalvik and cache - reboot.
hope this works for some of you also. my GPS has been locking within 5 secs since doing this, and it hasn't been that good since before flashing my first S3 rom back in july! =) "
Wow! The second one worked. I'm on a cm based ROM so it didn't have a the Samsung app. But I cleared the data for maps and cleared the data/cache and it worked! I even lock on inside my house.

Hello
I have issues using Waze as GPS. The GPS appears working But when I start to navigate it works for 5 minutes then GPS doesnt work anymore until a fresh boot on any other APP or WAZE....
is anyone experiencing this problems??
Thanks

Today going to work i made a test using google mapa. I start to navigate GPS works OK, but when it go for 5 minutes the GPS icon on the bar status desapear and the GPS goês stuck. I tried cm 10.1 and I have same problema.

Hi mate,
I've been using CM10.1 since beginning. I only tested 10.2 but it's not my DD cause I like Acid Audio with Noozxoide and it's not compatible with 4.3 yet.
Since July builds I'm noting strange behavior related to GPS... Maybe this apply to your case too using 10.2...
I realised that when I charge through any USB port, GPS brakes. Running Waze for a feel minutes and hangs phone completely. I have to reboot, wipe cache, dalvik and fix permissions. This procedure brings Waze back to life. I run Waze about 3hrs a day, every day, together with bluetooth audio in my car. Everything runs perfect until due to any reason I need to connect phone to a PC USB port again. It only occurs when connected to a PC USB port. With wall charger or car charger, always fine.
Despite dirty flash or clean rom install, this pattern occurs. I flashed official 09/08 CM10.1 yesterday and got the same issue. Maybe it's something with kernel Razrteam didn't passed through yet.
It took me days to perceive that, as everything was fine for 5...6 days and suddenly and without messing with anything the issue started from sudden. I realised the only different thing I've been doing before the hang was charging phone at work through PC.
Hope this experience can help you detect something there!
I tried to use the latest nightly from cm site and it didn't stuck in google maps but it still stuck the GPS in waze and i need to do a fresh boot. Im doing another tests i post in advance

NP! If nothing fix it, if you have a nandroid backup of a Motorola 4.1.2 flash it and get a GPS lock using your preferred app then do a fresh install of a CM10.1. (with a factory reset wipe). GPS will work fine. But if you do this, don't forget to backup everything as you 'll loose data.
I don´t know how to do this gps lock with nandroid, but i tried others nightlys roms, and the problems still remains!!!
I saw in the CM10.2 post thread, and other users have the same problem.
THanks again!!
