Hi everyone,
Today i did my first root ever because I wanted to over clock my tablets CPU. My WiFi was working fine until i rebooted my tablet and now it wont turn on, i hit the WiFi button and it says turning on and then turns back off. My device doesn't have a mac address now either. I'm running android 4.0.4, stock ROM, and I used super one click to root my device.
Thanks, Yuilly

My phone did not have WiFi after rooting either. Try to install a different ROM, like cyanogenmod. It worked for me.

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?
The other day, I got a text from AT&T indicating that an official 2.3.5 kernel was available for my Captivate. Great, so I fire up Kies mini and install it over my rooted stock 2.2.
Update goes well, I have Gingerbread. All of my apps remain in place. Re-root (SuperOneClick) and my Titanium Backup works like a charm.
However, I can't get my WiFI to connect to save my life. IT scans for about 15 seconds then shuts back off. I can't even enter WiFi settings manually, because it shuts off and "fail to save" the settings.
IS anyone else having issues with WiFI on the AT&T stock Gingerbread kernel? (No, I don't feel the need to upgrade, since I just want to be able to use TiBU)

I just updated to stock GB and have no issues with Wifi, although I am not rooted. I thought that rooting with SuperOneClick didn't work with this 2.3 stock.

I'll have to check that when I get off of work. That's what I used to root the unit when on 2.2. I wonder if the root just carried through the upgrade?
Anyway, I am probably going to flash back to froyo and update GB again, sans root to see if that helps.
For the life of me I couldn't get Superoneclick to work on 2.3.5, or 2.3.3. I flashed the rooted kernel with Odin.
No questions in General, post them in Q&A.
Okay so Im not that new with rooting androids or with using custom roms, so I'm not that much of a noob. The other day I decided since CM9 was in official nightlies I would give it a try. So I backed up my rom which was stock and rooted and I installed CM9 all through CWM recovery. Once in CM9 i notice the tablet wont connect to my phones tethering which is the only way I can get internet on it so I deciced to go back to my backup. But now on my backup the Wifi wont even turn on, anyideas why?
Hello,
I got exactly the same problem. I have installed CWM 5.5.0.4 and I tried CM9 nightly and return to Nandroid BackUp. Then no more wifi..
I tried to flash differents versions of stock kernels, but it was impossible to flash it : "Installation aborded"..
I used fastboot to install a new recovery : TWRP, but same problem : impossible to flash any kernels..
Does someone has the same problem? Or any idea to solve it?
Thank a lot !
Crystalyse
I also had another question...
is there any rom that will connect to Android tethering (ad-hoc)?
I was able to connect on stock rom rooted with cwm recovery but now every rom I tried so far wont connect to it.
Is there a way to work around this issue

+1 That's the fix (WPA_Spullicant2) that worked for me. My TF300 just kept saying "Saved" when trying to connect to ad-hoc. Replaced the WPA_Supplicant2 file and all is working well.
It's a known issue with wifi not working on stock rooted nandroid backups. If you go back to stock, you will need to follow the step in this post from Xplod.

Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.

Flash latest ftf using flashtool. Wipe everything and reset customizations.
will help you for sure if it's not hardware.
Hope it helps
Hit thanks if it does.
Wifi is dead. Unable to turn it on in settings, same for hotspot. Test in engineering menu fails. Reboot, connections setting reset, full wipe does not help.
Phone is 1mo old.
Any ideas?
Is the phone upgraded to the latest Asus release?

Yes, it happened on latest firmware (.145)
I had this issue when I first got my phone and upgraded to A10. No wifi, it wouldn't even turn on. I downgraded to Pie, configured and connected the wifi and then flashed back to A10 and it worked.

I've tried downgrading but that did not help
Sounds like a hardware issue.
