Simply saying "My Wi-Fi doesn't work." is very, very general. Be more specific. What's going on with it specifically?

Are you sure it isn't router related? Do you get an error message or failing to obtain ip address.
Sent from my Inspire 4G or Desire HD or whatever this thing is called via XDA app.

I rebooted and it worked. Running CM 7 nightly 8. Stock Kernel.

it just hangs at optaining ip address and doesnot move from there, also, i got fed up n went back to stock unrooted and it still doesnt work, but it was working before i started all this madness

Do other devices on your network have any trouble accessing the wireless router? What kind of router is it?

[Q] No WiFi post-root issue

I finally understood how to root my Inspire to take it over to my pre-paid T-Mobile, but, now, I can't get to the internet via WiFi. I've tried my wifi, as well as other connections around me, with no luck. The only way I can get internet on my phone is if I use the passthrough option. I'm running the stock 2.2 OS with no ROMs. Have I done something wrong...?
Additional Info:
Forgot to mention that I used the ace-hack, Version 11A. Also, I can scan for wifi networks, and I can connect. I have a good signal, and I can login to my router and see the phone listed. The "Mobile network" setting has been disabled since I won't be using data with T-Mobile. I've turned on Airplane Mode and tried to get to the internet that way, and the same thing still happens; I can see the networks, and I can connect, but, I have no data coming in or going out.

Any luck? I just ran through the same version of ace hack 11 and I'm experiencing the same problem. I can connect to any wi-fi with an excellent signal, but can't connect to the internet.

No ): I ran through AceHack11A again for giggles, and, I still have the issue. I'm thinkin' I may have to install the stock AT&T radio, but, from what I understand of it, the radio has nothing to do with wifi.

I'll save you the trouble of installing the stock radio, already tried it. I was able to get things working though... here's basically my chronology of things:
- Did step one of the reverse CID, god the goldcard.img emailed to me, no problems
- Did step 2, downgraded. After the downgrade, I could still use wi-fi at this point without issue.
- Step 3... this is where the wifi internet issue was introduced.
- Connected to the internet with via my PC with USB cable.
- Ran the one of the programs that was installed in step 3: Rom Manager (while connected to the internet). It made me download and install Flash ClockworkMod (all done through the rom manager gui).
- I bought the full version of Rom Manager. I removed the free version that was installed, re-installed the updated free version, then bought the premium rom manager.
- Within ROM manager, clicked on Download ROM and downloaded the CyanogenMod rom (I went with the regular CyanogenMod, not the nightlies version). Installed it, and everything works great.
You can probably tell I'm a total newb to android, hence the annoyingly detailed description of what I did. Give it a go, maybe it will work for you?

same problem here, after root
update:
Ok, I fixed installing a stock ROM from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058042
Probably the problem has to be something with Rom Manager (is not present in the stock rom), I didn't check it anyway.

I have the same problem several days ago. I flashed the Revolution ROM, and it was resolved.

Hi, this is my first post on here. I searched the forums for this problem I just encountered that happened right after I plugged in my phone at work to get internet thru my PC using the data cable. At lunch time I went home and turned WiFi on and now it just keeps scanning and will not connect to my Wifi! It sees my WiFi which was working just fine since the day I brought it home. All this started because I wanted to try out using the data cable to get internet on my phone since my work doesn't have WiFi. I believe it has something to do with connecting thru the data cable pass-through connection. I am on stock ROM. I rooted the phone before but went back to stock ROM because it just seemed like too much maintenance for me at this time.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? Am I going to have to flash back to original ROM to fix this?

I searched some more on there and only found this other topic but since I'm not at home at I cannot confirm if changing it to charge only and restarting will fix the WiFi problem that I am having! I'll try this out later.

For anyone else having issues, please use this method.
NOTE: You DO NOT have to buy the full version of ROM Manager in order to fix the issue. The free version will work just fine.

What ROM are you running?

[Q] Cannot enable WiFi on TF101

Odd thing happened today. I was testing out the EOS cornerstone new rom and was having issues with WiFi so I restored my Stock ICS setup but now I can not enable the WiFi.
The WiFi icon is greyed out on the settings tab and I can not swipe the WiFi to on in the settings app.
Has anyone seen this before? Did the WiFi die?

Just flash the ROM you were using again without any wipe. (Flash the ROM that your backup is base upon)

It seems the backup has the HC version of the wifi. I flashed the other rom again and the wifi is working fine.
Thanks.

Same Problem

Just flash Revolver ROM again, no wipe needed

I installed the AOSP test build of ICS, now I too am having wifi issues. I saw the ROM had it listed that there was a bug with the wifi so I didn't think much of it at first. I then installed Android Revolution but now the wifi still doesn't work.
I accidentally deleted my backup ROM..
Tablet says no MAC address found, and wifi settings app just hangs when trying to turn on.. I've re-flashed numerous times.. I've formatted all the partitions, re-flashed again....
Any ideas?

I had to flash the rom again (EOS cornerstone) and the wifi started working. I just ended up flashing the stock ICS from the asus site to start freh again.
It seems like the backup in CWM does something strange with the wifi driver.

I'm start a new thread here.

I reflashed EOS, wifi works, but i now have a different MAC address than I did before.

Are you rooted? If so flash a different radio or else go to the store they can fix. There is nothing you can do without root.
Xxx oops! accidentally beamed from my awesome NEXUS S! xxX

I have the same problem.
It all started when I tried to flash a new JB ROM. I tried Paranoid, XenonHD, JellyBean and none of them were able to connect to my cellular network. Before that I used AOKP and when they released their JB build 1 I tried flashing it as usual with a factory reset and then flash ROM. But I still couldn't connect to my cellular network. I then tried to flash build 1 over my restored nandroid and this time I could connect. It was just like there was some important file that the factory reset removed.
Today I'm running Codename 3.4.0 that I flashed over the JB build from AOKP and I can connect and use the phone but at the same time I feel that the phone is not as responsive and so forth, not because of JB but more because of this flashing over and over again.
I have thought about going back to stock and start over but I'm not sure that would solve it, or at least that is more work then trying to fix this in any other way. (I presume)
Just recently I tried to install the latest Codename (3.5.0) and as usual I did a factory reset and wiped Dalvik, then flashed ROM and GApps but could not connect to cellular. I then tried to flash radio from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884 both the KF1 and KI1 but still doesn't work.
All this time I can unlock my SIM when the phone starts and I can search for cellular network but trying to connect just gives me an error code stating that I can not connect and that I should try again later.

[Q] Xperia J Emergency Calls Only

Hello
I own an Xperia J with an unlocked bl and have flashed many roms on it. Yesterday, the phone started to not want to connect to the internet (mobile data not WiFi) so I found this curious and rebooted the phone and tried re-downloading internet settings but nothing fixed it. I factory reset the ROM (not the phone) but now I couldn't even make calls/texts as the phone was stating 'Emergency Calls Only' and after going through the phones first boot setup, a window popped up saying the phone could not connect to the SIM. In the end, I changed roms (running Doomsday ROM at the time of the error's start) but still the same issue. Tried CM, same issue. Now on stock JB and the problem still consists. I can't really afford a new phone at the current time and my Z1 is being borrowed by my dad. Any help would be much appreciated.

Try to flash first the ICS stock rom. Then flash custom rom.
