Wifi not working with custom roms on n8013 - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A few days ago I got my new Galaxy Note 10.1 wifi edition (the n8013 I believe). I rooted it then flash the latest CM 10.1 nightly only to find wifi does not work... I subsequently tried a few other custom roms (I think they were all based on cm10.1 which may be the problem). Wifi will turn on and recognize my network but when I try to connect it simply says "connecting" and then a few second later goes back to "saved, secured with WPA2". I'm relatively sure it is not my router since my laptop and phone are constantly connected and my tablet could connect on TouchWiz.
I've looked all around XDA and other forums to see if anyone has this issue and I could only find one topic but it had no resolution. I figure this must no be too common since Wifi, at least for the n8013, is the only way of connecting to the internet.
Any one have a similar problem or know how to fix it? Should I try flashing a rom that isn't based on CM10.1? I could just go back to stock TouchWiz but I'd rather not...

There's some good roms that are based on stock. I never used cm 10.1 so I don't have an answer for that. I am on an experimental build of 10.2 and wifi works just fine.

U have mistake when flash rom not for 8013. Now U only 1 way is flash stock rom and factory reset after the first boot.
If U wanna CM rom, u have to reconized what rom affordable for 8013 first.

I have the same problem. I'm angle to run cm10 without issue but any other jb ROM gives me this WiFi problem. Interested in solutions as well.

Have you checked to make sure you are using the recommended kernel for your ROM?

Use the recommended kernel, I've had this before and it was bugging me like crazy, then I found out I was using the wrong kernel, flashed the recommended one and voila. No more wifi issues :victory:

I have this problem without installing different kernels. On cm10 my WiFi works fine as well as any ICS Roms. With any jb ROM I haven't been able to over clock though which is a bit disappointing also. That plus the WiFi issue that is.

No location services in JB ROMS

I'm having a strange problem with every 4.1.X ROM i try. All apps that use location data seem to think it still needs to be enabled - even though it is. Gps on, Wifi and cell data share on, but I'm still reminded to enable them for better performance.
This isn't much of a problem with anything except Google Now. Maps still gets a gps fix despite telling me gps is disabled, but Now only shows the "enable location data" card. Any idea how to fix it? I've tried 5 different roms, fixed permissions, did several data and cache wipes, nothing works.
My sister has a stock S 4G with the OTA update and hers works flawlessly.
Have you tried flashing a custom kernel? Did you wipe data/cache/dalvik/boot/system before each ROM install? JB doesn't seem to play nice with some people's phones. Maybe 4.1.2 might fix your problem once someone gets it running on our 4G variant. Also, I believe this belongs in the NS general forum?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2
I've used matr1x 22.5-23.5 along with stock kernel or included kernel variant packed with each rom and no luck.
And I AM running a 4.1.2 ROM right now, that's why I said 4.1.X because the issue is with both versions

Well that's interesting because I've never had such an issue with jelly bean but future reference don't post in android development section unless your releasing a ROM or kernel or even a recovery... I'm reporting this thread so it can be moved

[Q] WiFi flaky with Sky-Jelly-Bean ROM from seanzscreams

I am posting it for first time but have tried many ROMs since GB ROMs on my skyrocket. I am not yet allowed to post this question on dev's ROM page. Recently I flashed Sky-Jelly-Bean ROM from Sean T11 beta. While the WiFi worked fine before flashing the 11.2 update, it became flaky after I flashed the update. Every 10 minutes or so it would switch to cell network and back to WiFi. This seriously impacts any downloads or streaming. Same happened with T10 base as well. I didn't notice it on T7.1 though.
I noticed this issue at home and at work. I had full WiFi signal when I had it. But still it switches to cell network about every 10 mins.
I did wipe cache and dalvik 5X before flashing the update. Fixed permissions too. Using TWRP open recovery for flashing the ROMs. Is anyone else noticing the same issue? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks Sean for another wonderful ROM. I have been flashing all your ROMs and updates since GB ROMs on my skyrocket. None of them failed to impress me.
wait continues...
I have to wait for 9 more posts to start posting the questions directly in dev's ROM pages.
It's a beta. He stated if you want a flawless Rom go back to 7.1

Yeah, I took the risk with the beta. But I had the same issues with T10 as well. I wanted to know if anyone is facing similar issues or is it only me. Are you on T11? Do you see any similar issues?

I went and fixed permissions for few times and now the frequency of the problem has reduced, but not completely. I guess I have to live with that for now. Hoping future updates or ROMs from sean might fix it.
Thanks all for responding.

Dose anyone know where I can get a different boot animation for the sky jelly bean? To like the nexus one or the original jelly bean animation?
Try a different radio or reflash the current one.

I had that issue on UCLF6 and tried UCLI3. But both had the same issue.
As I mentioned before, it got much better after fixing permissions for few times. I can live with it until 4.2 updates come.

You might want to post this directly under Sean's SkyJelly bean thread if you are using his ROMs.
Btw, someone in that thread mentioned that the ROM stopped working after flashing a new boot animation. You might want to search around a bit before playing with flashing boot animations.

Formated cache, system, data, etc 5x and then flashed just the base 5.0 rom, Nothing. Flashed back to Sky ICS just fine. Flashed to other JB based roms fine, but this one just won't flash. Kinda sad really.

[Q] questions about CM 10.1.2 on verizon SGS3

hello xda developers,
well i was about to flash Cyanogenmod 10.1.2 on my Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII model SCH-i535 until i started reading user comments and many of them said that this rom is great except that many people are having issues with a very weak 4g signal. Now i started doing some research on this issue with the 4g signal on my verizon phone and it seems that many other are having this problem as well...
Now i am reaching out to those of you who have a CM rom on a verizon Samsung Galaxy S3, how is your 4g signal? Do you suffer from a weak signal like other people i have been reading about?
The reason I ask is because I need a strong 4g signal for work, but I REALLy want to flash CM 10.1.2 on my phone. I have flashed CM on other phones i have had in the past and I am currently using CM 10+ on my tablet -> Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 model GT-P5113 and I really enjoy on my tablet. The thing is my tablet is a wifi only tablet so I can't judge it with a 4g signal.
Does anyone know if these 4g signals will be fixed on the last and final release of CM 10? Do you guys/gals think i should go ahead and flash CM 10.1.2 or do you think I should wait for the last/final release of the CM Rom.
Also I have another question...
I know that the Samsung Galaxy S4 is using Android 4.2.2. Is there an official Samsung Rom using Android 4.2.2 that i could possibly flash onto my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 model SCH-i535?
If there is an official rom could someone please provide me download link, and if all possible is there a tutorial available on how flash this official android 4.2.2 rom (if available).
I have been looking on the internet but i have not been able to find much...
Well i thank you all for your time and your assistance.
Thanks again,

I would flash cm10.1 and try it out for yourself. I ran it a couple days ago and the signal bars are lower but I hear that that's how they were made by Google to be more accurate. Idk. I an running carbon and my signal is 2/4 bars compared to touchwiz which I get 4/5 bars. Buy my connection is still fast which I used speed test to see if there was a different signal strength, which was not true.
And No official/leaked 4.2.2 TW released for our phone yet

So you are saying that with CM that your signal bars were low but your internet service was still fast?...
Would you say that with CM your internet connection was stable and that you consistently stayed in 4g and didn't go down to 3g too much?...
Also i know that you can do a full phone backup with titanium backup pro (which i have purchased) but if was to backup my phone and flash CM 10.1.2 how hard is it to flash back to the stock rom with titanium backup?
Also if i flash back to a stock rom would i loose my root status on my phone and have too root again or would everything go back to how it was?
I've never had to flash back to a stock rom before...so i am really curious how to that works exactly.
Thanks again so much for your response.

Make a backup in recovery (TWRP or CWM). Just use Titanium to backup/restore apps, and try to avoid restoring app data. Make sure all your backups are on an sd card or computer and not the phone, as you should wipe the data section when switching.
Returning to what you have now, if you don't stick with CM is as easy as wiping system and data and restoring the backup in recovery.
Try it out for yourself. CM reads lower bars because of a change google made. DBm wise the signals are exactly the same from CM to touchwiz. I have absolutely no problems with 4G anywhere it's available. And it hands off to 3G when the 4G signal is too weak, just like touchwiz.
I just went back from aokp to tw, now my gps is dead. Not sure what to do

ucpro i read somewhere on touchwiz that if you are having issues with gps that you have to do a complete wipe and reinstall. Make sure to wipe everything.
Good luck man,

So I finally went ahead tried CM 10.1.2 the newest nightly build and I must say that I absolutely love it!! I am not having any issues with my 4g signal the camera is working great. I have heard that some people have been having issues with bluetooth and gps though. For gps that seems to work just great but I have not tried out connecting my phone via bluetooth.
I will try that in a bit and let everyone (who is interested/cares) how bluetooth works.
If you have a verizon sgs3 go ahead and give Cyanogenmod a try. Be sure to grab the latest nightly builds.
Also be sure to back up your apps with titanium backup and backup your stock rom with a recovery manager such as clockworkmod.
I would like to thank the CM developers and the people of this amazing forum. You guys are what make the open source community great!

[Q] Constant ROM issues

Hi all!
I recently purchased a Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000
So first things first, flashed TWRP and did a backup
I have since downloaded and tried to flash:
- CM10.2 - whenever I do the wifi connects momentarily, then drops out...hangs for a moment and repeats
- Illusion ROM - simply sits at the "ANDROID" boot animation and doesn't load
- Ubuntu Touch - ultimately did work, but I found it to be abit unstable, laggy and not ready for daily use
I also flashed CWM and tried again - and with the same results
What have I missed?
I have tried flashing multiple times, each time restoring my original ROM, then wiping cache/dalvik/data, flash custom ROM, wipe cache/dalvik
So could this be a Kernel issue? flashing from a stock 4.0.2 straight to a 4.3 ROM and it just isnt playing nice?
What more info can i give?
Bump
Nobody can help me here?

Only thing I can think of is odin back to stock and try again. I personally have suffered issues when coming from cm 10. Everything your doing sound right to me.

Are you serious?!
I must've tried every combination of search terms regarding cm10.2 + n8000 + wifi issues imaginable
Thank you for verifying - do you have a link to a specific thread that i should be following to keep up to date with the ROMs progress on n8000 ?
