[Q] Cyanogenmod wifi

I just want to first thank everyone who worked on getting cyanogenmod to work on the jellybean boot loader. There is a problem that i am seeing though through the threads that wifi seems to not turn on. Unfortunately i have the same problem, i have had it for both the modified version on the 30th and still have it on the official version out the 31st. Has anyone else had this problem or even any vague idea as to the problem causing?

Wish I was posting with help I just wanted to cosign that I've also been going through the same thing from yesterday's unofficial to today's rom with turning the wifi on and having the tablet freeze. Hoping it can be worked out looking forward to using cm10 as soon as possible

I can confirm that i am still having the same wifi issues with the 11-01 official version.

I also had wifi issues initially, disable the wifi sleep policy and reboot, it would work afterwards.

for what it's worth I tried this but after the reboot I still ended up with the same problem, I think I'll just stick with cleanrom for now it's been running more than well enough

I updated to 11-2 and still no fix but I think I have come across something. I don't know if it just me but for some reason the wifi region in advanced is set to Europe. I try to switch it to US but never seems to save it. Am I the only one?

I don't have the issue. I have done this twice for each rom stock, cleanrom, jb hydro and I have wifi and gps. I'm using Twrp.
wipe cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset, System ( you must flash a rom now ) so be absolutely sure you have one available.
flash cm10
reboot
boot recovery
flash gapps
reboot
This didn't fail in a total of six tries. GPS is slow and not many sats but it does work.
Once I was stuck on bootanimation. I forced power down by holding power till screen went black. Power up and booted properly.
I miss spoke on the above when I listed gps - checking my notes and reflashing, gps does not work on nightly for me; it does work on the other cm10 jb for me. Sorry! Wifi does work on both.

DANG!! As of 11/3 version, I still have wifi issues. I have flashed back when there was no CM10 and have done exactly above and still cant get no reception. I still think that the region in advanced settings have something to do with it.

I'm sorry to hear that. I had hoped the problem was the difference in the way we handled wiping and flashing. I don't understand why my unit works and yours doesn't. I don't remember anything else I did that may have made a difference but I'll download 11-3 and try again.
I'll report with that status in a bit.:good:
I was on cleanrom, flashed 11-3 as above and have wifi. I wish we knew how to isolate this problem, I'll do some searching and look at some of my logs and dmesg. There must be an answer why some units work and others don't.
When you try to turn wifi on does it turn on and stay turned on or does it refuse to turn on?
I checked my region settings and they were set Europe, I changed to US just for fun but no difference in use. I have read in the US they are restricted to channels 1 - 11 instead of 1 - 14, maybe that is one of the reasons for that option.

I was on cleanrom 2.5 before also. Had no problems with it but wanted to see if CM10 was any better. What happens is that after i flash CM10, when you first start a tablet from scratch, it will search for wifi and say in the middle of the screen "Turning wifi on" and will stay that way. So i eventually have to skip it to go on to the Home screen. When I go back later in settings to wifi, says the same thing and sometimes crashes. When I go back to clean rom or original stock, have no problems.

I can't emulate that on my unit. Have you tried the cm10 by timmytim? If you need cm10 it may be an option. It is built on the cm10 you are trying to use but with some modifications.
I'm also waiting on the nightlies, in my case I'm waiting on gps.:good:

One last shot, it will only take 5 minutes and is easy.
Power off
Remove external sdcard
Remove from dock
Power on

I now updated from twrp 2.2.2 to 2.3.1 and tried BOTH 11/5 AND timmytim versions and still no luck. Do you think i need to try clockworkmod? I don't think that would make a difference.

No, I'm afraid not.
The last thing I can think of that could be different between our situations is your wifi.
I must begin by telling you my wifi router is an antique so I don't have some of the newer features.
This is a fishing trip. Take the little info I provide and try to use it to investigate your situation.
My router provides a table where I can list mac addresses of units I have programmed and only these are allowed access, even if they have the correct password, etc.
Some of the newer units have a button that automatically looks for units and self programs the router security features and any change made since the button was last pressed. If you have such then try to sync your unit again with cm10, otherwise look carefully through your router security options and see if anything stands out that may be different than with stock rom.
I know mac addresses and such are factory programmed but they can be spoofed and on units other than asus do sometimes change with rom.
For instance if I go to google play my TF300 shows as two different unit names.
Asus ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T
Asus Transformer Pad TF300T
That is enough difference to possibly cause your router to deny access.
None of this may apply but it is worth a try.
Good Luck!

wifi issues too
I am having same problem. tried 11-06 nightly and wifi will not even turn on. Tried other nightlies, same deal. Can't understand why not happening to all units. If anyone figures it out, let us know. I really want to try CM10! I think this is being discussed on the developers forum on the CM10 for JB thread as well.

11/06 and 11/07 are both broken for me as well. I saw a post by untermensch ( I think ) in the nightly thread where he was pushing some of his work for use in cm10. Maybe in a day or two everyone will have wifi.
I have read you can flash his kernel after setting up cm10 and get wifi. I have not tried that and if a fix comes soon I probably won't.
What I have done is flash his TF300T kernel over CleanRom and it is faster and smoother. I am not over clocking, using balanced mode.
Sorry I don't have any other thoughts at this time.
Good Luck to us all!

I tried the last couple nightlies and still no wifi capability. Tried a rom based on CM10, still a no go. SO, using cleanROM for now, it seems to work very well for me. I wonder why CM10 works for some and not others? Is there a difference in the hardware from unit to unit?

Wifi works again on nightlies 11/09
I still don't have gps.

LUCKY!!!! I read the post and now on 11/9 and still the same problem. I do want to ask a question though to all that do have the problem. Were you on cleanrom before trying CM10? Does this have anything to do with cleankernel?

I know you asked for those that didn't work but.
Just for more info and being fair to cleanrom.
I was on cleanrom when I flashed 11/09 and now I'm back on cleanrom till I see a size change on nightlies.

[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.

WiFi Not working while I'm not using the Phone

Hi experts,
I have downloaded the OTA from Verizon. Please find the attached picture of my Phone, to know the Technical information
MY Problem :
When, I'm not using my Phone, even though, I'm at home and I have WiFi at home, My phone is disconnecting from the WiFi and using the Cll 4G LTE Signal, after I lock my phone screen.
This is the 3rd month in a row, I'm paying insane charges for the Data. Did anyone found a solution for the problem??
Thank You.

Any one facing a similar problem???

Sorry. I can't even think of what would cause this. The only thing I can suggest is try a factory reset. Don't restore any apps. see if it happens. If it does then odin stock 4.3, and try again.

Data stall after wifi disconnect

I have a VZW M8 and it seems that after I leave Wi-Fi coverage, my mobile data will stall. I believe it is Wi-Fi disconnect causing the issue because if I leave Wi-Fi off, I haven't noticed the stall.
The only way to regain mobile data is to either restart which works every time, or if I go to mobile data settings and change from LTE to GSM, which works most of the time. Toggling data does not work.
I apologize if this has been discussed before, I searched and found nothing. I am s-off, rooted and running nV Rom. I asked in that forum but got no response. I also ran the GPE rom and had the same issue.
I don't remember this issue when I was stock, but that was such a short time, so I can't be sure.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue and if they were able to remedy it somehow.

I've had this issue on previous devices and it was usually caused by a specific rom, but many times it had to do with the baseband or even kernel. I know that the GPE roms for the VZW M8 were ports from the unlocked variants so that may have modified something like the baseband. If it's a consistent thing throughout several roms, I would literally go back and flash stock firmware and then reroot to see if that fixed it. That used to do the trick for me.

Worth trying, I'll let you know what I come up with. Thanks

Well, I restored my stock nandroid, but I'm still having the issue. Maybe I will RUU to stock and see what that does for me.
On a side note, could it be one access point causing the issue? I don't remember it happening off of my router at home, but 75% of the time it happens all the time at work.

Actually, try forgetting the access point and then re-add.
I ended up not using Wi-Fi at work for a short time, and then re tried and it worked. Nothing changed, other than I forgot and re-added the network. Worth a try.

[Q] WiFi doesn't work when Bluetooth is connected

I apologize for the bad title,
When I connect to my Mi Band via BT, my WiFi stops functioning. If I disable BT, WiFi starts working, but then I can't connect to BT. I'm on 5.0.2, and I had CM12, and I also tried Slim Rom, but the issue persisted across both ROMs.
Does anyone have an idea as to what could be causing this?

There were some discussions about this some weeks ago, it seems like it's a general issue with our phone and nobody found a solution. It is happening on KK as well not only on LP. You could try a Sense ROM but I think it's the same. Only ROM that could properly work might be an official one but that's Android 4.1.2 and Sense 4 at best
