[SOLVED] WIFI will no longer turn on

Hey all,
I installed several custom ROMs and WiFi would no longer turn on. In an attempt to restore it, 24 hours of disaster later I have a completely stock image on my phone. Nothing changed, and wifi still will not turn on. Everything I have attempted has not worked. It was working just fine until I installed SlimKat ROM. Any ideas on how to get working wifi again, or at least a method to test if it is now a hardware problem or software?

Did you by anychance format the persist in the bootloader? If so try searching for that. There is a file to ve replaced using a root explorer.
Thia happened to me once.

It worked!

Wifi unable to reconnect when coming back in range

I have this rather annoying problem with my OPO: When I'm on WiFi and go out of range and get within range of another WiFi (eg leaving from home in the morning and getting on the train where there's also WiFi) my OPO will not connect.
I've tried switching WiFi off and back on, tried forgetting network and connecting again but the network just displays as "Saved". Only thing that works is a reboot. Funny thing is that it actually detects open WiFi's and displays the question mark in the notification bar.
I've read that themes can cause WiFi problems so I haven't changed that. I'm using the Apex launcher with no visual changes.
I've rooted my phone but left the bootloader locked.
Any advice?

I'm rooted with the TWRP custom recovery installed. I had the same thing happen to me. If you toggle airplane mode on/off, it will reconnect. But, as for a solution, my fix was to restore a previous TWRP backup of my phone. I also had heard that the problem could be coming from a theme. What themes have you used? I bought the Flux theme and have been using its style and fonts. I was running the stock CM11s when this happend just a few days after getting my OPO. I would try a factory reset first. If that does not work, there is a thread in the OPO forums about flashing a factory image and getting back to 100% stock.
I have switched to the CM11 nightlies as of a couple of days ago. I will probably refrain from messing around with the theme packs for now.

Will probably unlock the bootloader. Then a factory reset should be taken care of I guess...

I'm now on KTU84P and the problem is still there
Yesterday I failed to flash MAHDI and ended up clearing everything from my phone. I had to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
to get back to pre-KTU84P (can't remember the build number).
So I guess it's safe to say that my phone has had all sorts of memory cleared. And the problem is still there...

I really hate to hear that you are still having the wifi issue. One would think that if you flashed all partitions with a factory image that it would solve the problem. You might want to have a look at this thread. This guy was unsuccessful in fixing his efs and bluetooth problems until he flashed Color OS and then went back to CM. Have a read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/fix-people-corrupt-efs-mobile-data-t2836389

Flashed Mahdir ROM yesterday and though the rom works just fine my WiFi reconnect issue has not been resolved
I find flashing yet another rom (ColorOS) sounds a bit drastic. Really no way of debugging what's wrong?

Thanks for sharing. I think there are two things that can produce a major restore/fix to a phone - a nandroid restore and a major rom update. I hope it fixes yours. The nandroid restore is what saved mine.

Been there. Done that. Read the book. Got the t-shirt.
Flashed ColorOS.
Factory reset.
Booted and got through into ColorOS (skipped account setup).
Booted into recovery.
Factory reset.
Restore backup of CM11S.
No dice :'-(
What are my options now?
A couple of days ago I completely wiped my OPO - radio, modem, everything and flashed a new stock image. Nothing has helped.
I really find it hard to believe this to be a hardware issue.

Just for clarification - after flashing Color OS, did you turn on wifi and use it to see if the problem was still there while in Color OS?

If your WiFi 2.4 or 5GHZ?

Yes. I would recommend you consider doing that. If it works then I would flash a fresh Cm11s rom, not a nandroid backup. Flash the Color OS and do a full check of the Wifi.

I was having the same issue, but here's what I did and it seems to have resolved my issue.
1) Updated firmware on my ASUS AC68 router
2) Boot into recovery mode (volume down+power), wipe cache and media, then factory wipe
3) When setting up phone, did not apply CM theme on the options after logging into CM account.
It seems like WiFi might drop when you get to homescreen, just reboot phone and Wifi should reconnect. Make sure to go into your WiFi settings and remove any networks that was saved, and re-add.
Still not ideal (since it seems like themes might be killing WiFi for some users), so hopefully a new OTA update will solve this problem.

Wifi mac address changed to 02:00:00:00: and stucked at wifi turning on

Wifi is stucked at turning on.... It never turns on.
The mac address is also changed to 02:00:00:... Previously it was something d9:..... It dont remember that.
I saw a youtube video how to fix that https://youtu.be/RHGQn0Av2hI it says that i have to put some file named Wcxxxxxxxxx.bin in root /persist
But when i open persist folder there are no of folders and at the end wifi. But in video of moto g it didnt have any folder. So i placed file in /persist but that didnt help.
He also mentioned in xda thread ( link in description) that this work for moto series.
So can any body guide me what should i do

Wifi is working again.
I installed certificate from adclear app and rebooted. The reboot was stucked at google logo for around 60-90 seconds and then boot animation started.
i started cleaning my interner storage as i was preparing to backup on pc and flash mra58k image. And uninstalled android authority app. And deleting all the folders that were just eating space.
Any ways thanks for your replies.
My mac address also is reverted back to original one.
The wpa supplicant is also now having around 10-12 lines then my wifi details.

It's not software. It's failing hardware. Your Bluetooth will also stop working, as it's the same chip. Mine does the same thing. I've flashed multiple ROMs and tried changing wifi system files. Nothing has helped...
Sent from my TARDIS

I bought my Nexus 5 the first month it came out. Since then I have never touched the original system or even root it. About a month ago my wifi suddenly stopped working. I have decided to root and flash roms, after factory reset and basic solutions on google didn't work. I have tried a couple of different roms all on android 6 and 7. Wifi still not working. I havent tried flashing kernel and I don't have a file called /persist in the main directory...
EDIT: Cellular data & Bluetooth working.

If changing software and resetting doesn't fix the wifi problem, it's probably a defective wifi chip. I have two nexus 5 motherboards in my desk drawer with no wifi (tries turn on but never does or turns on then off by itself) but cell and Bluetooth work.

[FIXED] WIFI and SIM Card TOTALLY broken on OPO running Nougat

Hi,
To begin with, before all this I already had a wifi issue:
I had to reconnect to wifi networks every 5 minutes. After 5 minutes the wifi signal icon was still showing but nothing on apps etc could refresh, simply no signal.
I searched something on Google and found a forum post about someone having the same issue. He fixed the issue by flashing and installing a 'firmware' zip, file or whatever. This was for OnePlus One devices running Nougat so I tought, all ok!
So I flashed the file and since then a new (huger) problem showed up.
When my device was on, no SIM card could be find (And yes it's in lol..) and I can't turn on WIFI (When I do, it turns off automaticely after 5 sec.)
I tried a FULL wipe via TWRP, tried to flash the rom again (TugaPower) and NOTHING worked.
HELP! Seriously, I've been searching **** for 2 days now and I really need my phone.

No Data Connection

Hi everyone,
Could really use your help. I tried updating my phone to Lineage OS and post update, my phone's data connection stopped working. I've tried flashing different firmwares to see if it fixes the problem and it didn't. I went back to my old backup, and the problem continues. I can't access any data connection (no phone, or text either).
Any idea on what could have caused the problem. My steps were basically:
Backed up old Sultan 12.1 Rom
Installed Lineage using TWRP 2.8.7.0
Installed latest Gapps mini
Installed the bacon_firmware_update_2015_05-15_DI.3.0.c6-00241.zip
And data problems began
Now i've tried redoing the steps with the latest recovery and it doesn't change anything. And as previously mentioned, I'm having data connection problems in my old backup as well

Yup, I reverted back to my old backup and no flashing of firmware, and it's still messed up.
Found out that my IMEI isn't showing up so that could be the problem. Went through "the entire internet" and found some fixes, trying them now to see if I can get something to work.
Edit: I flashed to CM13.1 stock. But my IMEI is still not showing up. No idea what to do next. My phone connects to the network, but doesn't let me do anything considering it can't find an IMEI.

I installed lineage, still no data connection. Honestly about to give up on this phone. Is there a good stable rom that I should use?

I've tried Lineage and now Sultans CM13, but still no data man. Just my sim stuff is acting weird, and i know my sim is fine. I'm switching carriers and ordered a new sim. I'm hoping somehow changing carriers helps, otherwise I'm **** out of luck.
Edit: Ok, so on Sultan's CM13 I've finally got the data working, but it only works when its on H+ (4g) otherwise no internet/voice/ text. So is there a fix this?

4G is Lte not H+(3G).
Yeah maybe OPO doesn't support the band your carrier uses for data.

Nope, not the case as I've been using the phone for the last 2 years. I read up that the switch between H+ and 3g happens because the carrier only sends data through H+ not 3g, so it happens to every phone, not just the OPO. But now my problem is, I can't send texts over 3g.
I'm going to wait and see what happens when I get a new carrier's sim.

you've mentioned that you are using twrp 2.8.7.0, can you try twrp from here and re flash firmware and report back?
Just flash the .img file via twrp
Also, use this firmware : link

He already tried using the latest recovery...

Thanks for the help guys, I think in this case it was more of a carrier problem. I learned that Wind has been updating their infrastructure causing some network problems. Couple that with a finnicky OPO and you get headaches.
My new carrier seems to be working better (but I've only had the new sim for an hour). Going to do a full day test and see what happens.
Thanks again.
