[Q] Emancipation WiFi issues? - Samsung Infuse 4G

Has anyone else tried connecting to an invisible wifi network with Emancipation? I had been having wifi issues with Revelation constantly dropping and reconnecting to wifi so I made the switch to emancipation and it won't connect to the network at all. If I make the network visible it connects.
Before flashing I used Heimdall One-click Back-To-Stock UCLB3.

The school where I teach has an invisible access point and I have no issues connecting. What type of router are you using?

DLink DGL-4500

I sometimes have to toggle wifi off and on again. it shows connected, but there is no data getting through.

I have found just turning the power off then back on for both my modem and wireless router...resets all...with two PC and 5 phones...that helps me.

I'll give that a try, we've had some pretty wicked weather lately.

I finally got it to connect. However, it's started doing the same thing again dropping and reconnecting until it eventually just shows the wifi signal but doesn't appear to be connected or transferring data through it.

If you guys are having trouble connecting on to an invisible network,
Zen has noted that the keyboard, after a few flash, can insert additional characters. I noted these odd behaviors when using swype.
It is not as prevalent on android or stock samsung kb.
If you are try to connect, change the kb to sammy's or android.
If you have connected and dropping or can't connect, I would recommend trying my wifi-fix script in cwm. I'm curious to see if it works.
Power the router off and on is also a good idea. some routers are buggy or just need a power on/off.

Mine finally worked after toggling bluetooth, gps and airplane mode on and off.
I did notice the keyboard leaving extra spaces but as I caught it don't suspect that was the issue.
I've been using this router set up as is for years and have only recently started having the connectivity problems with phones I've put recent releases of revelation, emancipation or Zeus on. For some reason lately my cell signal at my apt has dropped drastically (majority of the time barely 1 bar; would get 3-4 bars when I moved in December) so not having wifi makes everything a real pain. I almost think att has black listed my account or something. I've tried multiple modems but problems present with each one.
I would gladly try your script do you have a link?

The script only semi fixed my wifi issues... still constantly reconnects but always successfully reconnects.
On an unrelated note how does one edit the APN in emancipation?

Wifi issue

Sorry if this has already been covered in another forum.
My wifi on the samsung mesmerize is not working properly, 3G works just fine. I try and go online from my wifi connection it says server problem, if I go to my wifi settings it says it's connected. Help would be much appreciated, I have a very fast internet and would like to take advantage of it, especially considering my psu just blew on the pc! I have pulled 10 mbs on this phone using wifi before. Haven't installed a new app that would prevent anything with the wifi that I'm aware of, just wiped my phone the other day, saturday actually. Again any help would be great.

We're going to need to know what you're currently running.
As far as I know, no one is having issues with Wi-fi on either 2.1 or 2.2
My wifi sometimes won't turn on and I have to reboot to fix it, try that?

Yea if that don't fix it try pulling the battery.
Although since the phone is telling you i'ts connected I'm now thinking this is probably app related...(which a reinstall or reflash may correct)
I also have wifi issues with my fascinate, running froyo. I turn wifi on, and it works until the phone sleeps. Then at some point (seem to be a different amount of time each time) I lose my connection to the net. It still says the wifi is connected (wifi symbol at the top). But if I attempt to use google talk, or pull up a web page I do not have access to the internet. If i turn wifi off, and then right back on, all is well (until the next time it sleeps).
There is an app called wifi keep alive. If i check all the options on that app it helps. I see the issue far less often, but it still happens, and using this app my battery life suffers a little.

Wifi errors

OK so on my open network at home o can connect but then I lose internet connectivity after about 5 minutes. Recently today though when I go to shut off wifi and bring it back on, it just reads error and won't let me check it back on or off. I then power cycle the phone and I'm back to square one with the 5 minute disconnect. Wtf

It may not be your phone.
I had the same issue but I reset and reconfigured my Cisco router
Renamed my network and phone connected within seconds and I haven't had any issues since.
Try connecting to a different wifi network and see how well it connects.

I replaced my router today and my wifi issues went away. I'm sad to find out the Atrix 2 doesn't support 5ghz wireless N
This is a motorola bug. It exists on the Atrix 2, Droid 1, Droid X, and Droid X 2.
It has something to do with the method the wireless radio in the phones notifies the AP that it is going into low power standby. So far I've been unable to determine the EXACT reason that it does this, but have a feeling its related to using WPA/WPA2 and sending the LPN to the AP with that enabled.
I'm trying to figure it out, and if any one else experiencing problems with wifi where it drops connectivity after 2-5 minutes, please let me know the following info:
Length of SSID
Brand of Router / model.
Encryption type: EG, WPA2/CCMP (CCMP=AES on some devices)
length of encryption key.
I'm going to try and find a way to fix this at the router, provided the settings are available.
Ssid is the same as router name WRT330N. No encryption. Got my new skyrocket no more wifi issues

I am experiencing exactly what you described, every time I connect to WPA2 network at my college I experience weird problems. For example when I stream music with GoogleMusic I can barely go through one song. On the other hand I have no problems at my home where I also use WPA2. The most confusing thing is that my phone acts weird on unsecured networks too.
Do you think this is a software issue ?
For those who are seeing the poor WiFi connections that lock up after a few minutes...
Go into your router settings and disable WMM.
I am told (by a reliable source) that the problem resides in some T.I. drivers commonly used in Moto phones and it's exacerbated by overly strict code in many routers.
In any event, I was suffering terribly unstable WiFi connections that would lock up every few minutes. As soon as I disabled WMM on the router, everything started working cleanly and has remained that way.

Thanks for the info. What should we do if we use wifi in a university or any other place where you can not change router settings? Do you think Cm7/Cm9 will remedy the problem?

Wifi issues since ics update

I don't know if anyone else is having this issue or not but since I updated to ics UCLD2 and UCLE2 on both updates I seem to drop wifi connection every few minutes. Every few minutes I see a box come up that says connected to belkin. I know its actually dropping it because at times I will look up at the status bar and the wifi symbol that shows your connected won't be there then it will come back on and say connected to belkin. Its something in the phone because all the other devices on wifi in the house isn't having this problem. Anyone having or have had this problem? Any solutions? My wifi is set to never sleep and I've tried several wifi fix apps on the market and I've tried changing wifi channels still no luck..

It done it all the time on the previous leak ucld2. I thought the problem was fixed with this leak because it did fine for a couple of days it only done it a few times. But now its gets worse everyday. As long as I'm in the living room where the router is it only drops every now and then but in my bedroom away from the router it does it every few minutes....

The only thing I could suggest is flashing romracers radio he pulled from the leak. Flash it once, wait a minute, then flash it again and wait 30 seconds and reboot. It may help, it may not.
OK I don't why but I read somewhere that the skyrocket don't deal with wpa and psk security to good so I removed the security off my wifi connection and renamed it something other than belkin. I did this about oh 4 hours ago and I have not lost connection once which is great but now my wifi is wide open with no security. Guess Ill have to put my monitor on it that will let me know if more than 5 devices are connected....

Are you able to run security on your home wifi or do you just have it open? My wifi works better and faster than ever with not one disconnect as long as there is no security key to logon to the wifi. Its crazy I've never had this problem with any other device. And none of our other phones which include captivate infuse HTC status or our friends iPhone or laptops does it only my phone and only since the Android 4.0 upgrade. I flashed back to my nanadroid gingerbread backup earlier and it connected with no problems with the security on but soon as I flash back to ics is drops every few minutes until I turn the security off. So I tried the gingerbread modem with the ics and still the same drops every few minutes only with the security on. So I don't know I'm just leaving my security off and maybe when the official update comes out it will have a fix...

Im not actually at home, I am running on hotel wifi which is not secure. So I can't test that for you.
My SR has had near flawless wifi in multiple networks / security types, on 2.3.5 /6 GB and on UCLE2. The 1 exception is my home router, where it would make the secure connection, but the broadband DNS server seems to block its data connection. This affected Cappy also, resolved both with static settings. The only wifi adapters I've seen needing open settings either needed newer drivers, or were damaged ones needing replacement. One workaround for your 5 at home is a MAC filtering list.
As for wifi issues,
the only serious wifi issues I had was when using Facebook. It simply could not hold a connection. Browser, any other apps all seemed to work fine.

My wifi router is a belkin and I just recently purchased it a couple of months ago so do you think it could be bad? Also when I go to my mother in laws she has a AT&T 2 wire wireless router with security on it and my phone does it there to. None of our other phones does this and also since I posted yesterday a friend come over with a galaxy s2 not skyrocket and it connected as well with no problems. Our router is set to dynamic connection. We have DSL which is a PPOE but when I set the router to PPOE and put in the user name and password it just connecting and sticks there so I changed back to dynamic...

Given the other phones work well it seems like a fault in your phone, not the routers. One troubleshoot/workaround is to enter appropriate static IP settings as detailed in posts 1 & 7 here. That will either stabilize it or show you need to reimage the phone with full wipes to test further. You can screenshot most of the settings you need using the Ipconfig app by Mankind, during a good connection. Just take care to choose a static address outside of the router's assignable DHCP range, to avoid conflicts.
The same issue exists on the recently rolled out official ICS update for the Galaxy Note, I'm having this problem with stock radio and no root.

As long as I'm connected to an open wifi connection it works just fine but if I secure it it constantly disconnects. I'm starting to wonder if its a Samsung problem now because my wife's Samsung infuse on gingerbread is doing the same thing. And its not just my home wifi it does it at friends house with secure wifi and at mother in laws to with secure connection but never on any open connection. Um my daughters two HTC phones does not have this problem so I'm starting to think maybe its a Samsung problem. I don't think its an android problem cause both the gingerbread phone and my ics phone is doing the same thing. If it is android its something in gingerbread that carried over to ics

Had same problem
I had the same issue , went from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to the ICS UCLE2 leak and my wi-fi would turn on and off , so I just started from scratch went back to 2.3.4 via Odin , updated to 2.3.6 and flashed back to the UCLE2 leak via Odin and now it's working fine , I kinda figured it was a glitch in the software somewhere , from where I had changed rom's so many time's , and apparently it was , hope this was helpful.

[Q] Wifi

Not to continuously post stuff on XDA about this phone...but I am curious....my Wifi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting....depends sometime 1-2 mins into using Wifi and somethings after using it for more than 1 hour....none of my other devices have this issue and I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem with this phone...thank you
Edit: It still happens....hmm

I've been having the same issues... I have a laptop that doesn't seem to have any problems with my current router (Medialink Wireless N router I got off Amazon - good router until this issue...). It also doesn't matter how close I am to the router either. I've been sitting 2 feet from my router, and it will still continuously disconnect and reconnect. Let me know what your findings are...
Idk if this will help: settings/wifi/menu/advanced/keep wifi on during sleep. I have mine set to always, no problem here. If that doesn't help try assigning an ip through your routers dhcp.
Saint sent this from his Q using xda premium
Ok....so it does still happen....on my Netgear 7550, Linksys E4200, Linksys E3000, and almost every other network I connect to...it is really frustrating...
It happens to me when I'm in my apartment bedroom some on the far side (I normally plug it up at night to my right on the headboard) which is about furthest from my router I can get inside...but otherwise I don't have the issue when I'm closer. I've started wondering if the phone just doesn't pick up wi-fi as well, though in fairness I have a single-antenna fairly cheap Rosewill router (RNX-N150RT).
Change the wifi ip settings on the phone from dhcp to auto. Mine was set to default to dhcp.

I'd have to think you guys have bad hardware, or something else not playing nice... I have connected to MANY access points (even in different countries) and never had an issue with it dropping. I even make wifi calls for long conference calls, so I would definitely notice if it did drop...

Yeah, I have the same issue. I've discovered that it doesn't disconnect if I'm within 5 feet of the access point, which isn't exactly a great option, but does suggest maybe a software fix or a straightforward hardware hack like the Atrix 2.
Ok so even after the update the wifi still drops....even when i am right next to the router....but I can say that when i am using WiFi tether it doesn't drop the tether connection....it all seems weird to me...

Possible solution - try this and see if it works for you
Was running into this problem on my new Pho Q (too fun calling it that), where it would drop wifi and report a connection was available on the left side, then connect again, every 15s to a min.
To resolve (at least so far now for me for about an hour):
Settings - Wifi - Menu - Advanced:
Uncheck Show Reminders
It seemed that having it popup a reminder of available networks could be related to it noticing my available network every few seconds, and it seems to have helped me. Try it and report back. :highfive:
Ok, seems its still happening, but far less often at least. When I have some time, I'll try to do an A-B-A test but it does seem better than it was before disabling the setting.

Someone thought it was related to smart actions - do you have any of those enabled?
I've never had any issues with wifi - and I've used many different types of routers and security models.
Have you tried changing your wireless channel on your router or gateway? By default most start on 6, so changing it to 1 or 11 might reduce interference from nearby wireless signals. Are you a long distance from your router/gateway?

I've never had any issues with wifi - and I've used many different types of routers and security models.

Not using Smart Actions (I use Settings Profile app from the Play Store instead)

Have you tried changing your wireless channel on your router or gateway? By default most start on 6, so changing it to 1 or 11 might reduce interference from nearby wireless signals. Are you a long distance from your router/gateway?

It'll disconnect and reconnect even if I'm 2 feet from the router. I just tried changing to channel 10. I'll report back how it goes. I do live in an apartment building with tons of wifi networks, so this is a good suggestion. Thanks!

Tried changing the channel, but still disconnects and reconnects often. None of my other devices (laptops, tablets, other smartphones) have any issues keeping connected. I'm still at a loss...
Anyone have any luck fixing this? When my wife's photon Q connects to our home network, no problem. No drops whatsoever. But when she connects to her work WiFi, despite a strong signal, it would drop every few minutes.

[Q] WiFi trouble with CM10?

I just purchased a used HTC One X from the Rogers network and unlocked it. Before rooting it, on the Sense rom WiFi was working great. Very strong signal and it never dropped. Upon flashing CM10, it's not picking up my home network (which I know is working because I'm typing on it right now and the device was connecting to it earlier).
I downloaded WiFi analyzer and it's jumping between networks, some networks pop up and then disappear and then new ones pop up. WiFi is just acting very strange. I did all the appropriate wipes before flashing.
I found a lot of WiFi issues surrounding the international One X but I don't think this is a defect since it was working fine with Sense.
Does anyone else have any experience with this?
Thanks!
Just flashed back to a Sense rom, and low and behold my WiFi is working properly again.
I've had the same experience with CM10 (different nightlies) and AOKP, WiFi is just not reliable. I can connect just fine and the signal strength is the same as with Sense (including CleanROM) but at random times transfer speeds will go down or just drop completely, usually turning WiFi off and on fixes it but it happens again within a couple of hours.
I've tried a couple of tips from those threads like turning off the 5GHhz radio on my router but that doesn't seem to help

I can't even detect my home network. There's a few of the neighbors networks that pop up on and off but it's not consistent.
I'm literally sitting on my workstation which is connected to my home network and I have full bars. On Sense, I also get full bars and WiFi works as expected.

I've had troubles as well with WIFI on my device running CM10. I've posted numerous time to the CM10 dev forum but nothing comes from it at all. I had very good wifi with the Oct nightlies but now my Wifi is chocked off and doesn't perform as expected. I've tried rebooting my modem, router, switch everything and still the same results. Is there anyway to bring some attention to this or figure out the problem?
Help others and myself figure this problem out, anyone?

Are you on the stock kernel for CM10? Try flashing another kernel. It could be a kernel issue that you're having. I had this problem When I flashed PACman, and all i did was just flash Rohan's Build 5 and now my WiFi is working just fine.

I'll download rohans kernel as I've been using the built-in Kernal with that comes with CM10.
**Edit: I've installed RoHan's kernel but still the results are the same. The wifi and network become grayed out from time to time and websites fail to load. I know my home connection isn't quite that fast but there is no reason that the connection all together would drop.
my wifi icon on cm10 just turns grey after a while and doesn't receive any data. So i have to toggle it off and then on again to get it to work again

The CM10 stable rom is out for the LTE One X. I'm going to give it a go and see if any thing changes.
Check your region code under Wifi -> Menu -> Advanced Settings -> Region Code
Make sure it's under US (or wherever you are), reboot and see if that helps.

I'm located in Canada, and I've tried setting it to US and Canada. No dice.
I tried the a different kernel, CM10 nightly, CM10 stable, AOKP, and none of them are working.
I'm having a similar problem. My wifi won't turn on for some reason. It's related to the phone hardware, not my network. And I'm only seeing this problem when flashing the most recent nightly of CM10.
I'm not sure what else to try. Any ideas?
I've tried rohan's kernel as well as setting the region for the WiFi adapter but eventually it happens again. It's not as bad as some of the other posts I've seen, but it does kill data through WiFi at some point and transfer speeds drop.
Is there anyway to get further data on this? I know that my phone doesn't have the hardware "bug" first reported with a few of the devices. Any logs or error reports we can try and gather?
I managed to connect to my home wifi which I was previously unable to connect to, I had to change my router's wireless signal channel from 13 to 1. I am able to hold a signal fine, however I know many of my neighbors networks are not showing up like they should. Similarly, I am also unable to pick up my university network at school.
As I've said, Wifi works fine on Sense.
Is there any way I can help with error reporting in any way? I don't mind donating a bit of money to the CM team and help them get some logs.
It's nice to know I'm not the only one affected.
I would have to say this is completely a Kernel problem. I am having a similar issue in cm10 on N7000. But it's only happens to the some of the routers.
My house's router is a d-link product. And when you are connected you will having no issue, but once you restarted your phone you are getting trouble to reboot the router once to get your self connected again, in the phone, the wifi will stating "Connecting" like forever.
But I am not getting the same trouble when I am with my company's wifi and the Wifi of my friends lynsys. So its hard to tell the developer about this issue because it's not happens to all people. I hopes this info helps. Reboot the router usually works for me.

Unfortunately it's not always possible to reboot the router.
Like I said, I can confirm this issue and anything I can do to help I will try to provide.
These issues with CM10 and the new AOSP will almost make me *shutter's to think this thought* move back to sense.....I'm just not sure what to do. Should we link this to the dev thread?
Edit: I've captured a logcat from me turning on wifi, connecting to a website, and loading a second website to see the behavior. PM me if this would be of use.
This is the only reason I'm using a Sense-based ROM (CleanROM), nightly builds for CM10 run great and I have no other issues, but this one is kind of a deal-breaker for me.

Would it be possible for us to get in contact with a developer?
How would I go about getting a logcat of my own?

I feel you man. I'm sticking with AOSP because I managed to at least get my home network working but it's definitely annoying not being able to get onto my university network.
