I've installed cyanogenmod 9.1 a couple of weeks back and it seems I have a wifi problem. At first it worked ok but lately it seems that the wifi freezes in "enabeling wifi" mode. It works fine if I reboot the phone but I'm tired of doing that evrey time I want to connect to my wifi. I've also tried something with "echo murata > /data/.cid.info...etc" that I found is used for fixing this for samsung galaxy s3, it worked at first use but then nothing.
A solution could be keeping the wifi always on but this drains the batery.
Hope someone can help me with this...Thanks in advance.

Hi, the reason for this is unknown.. but upgrading to Android 4.2.2 + seems to fix the issue. It was fixed in the kernel for those ROMs.. So only possible workaround is to upgrade to 4.3.1.. which is bugfree..
Edit .. : Now I recall that it was an issue with the wifi drivers in the kernel. If you can .. search for the wifi fix by Immortalyash .. He had done it in cm9.. as well as in minicm9. check it out.

this is a common bug in cm9 & minicm9 roms..4.3 roms don't have this issue. I'm using minicm9 with aries kernel oc & no wifi toggle issue yet..you should try aries kernel too maybe it'll solve your problem.

New problems...
So i've tried a bunch of different kernels starting with pandora r3...that didn't do anything, then i installed garuda v5 that fixed the wifi problem but made another one...that being it can't recognize the sd card anymore, i can see the second partition but sd card appears removed and when i take the card out i can still see the message sd card unexpectedly removed, so most of the apps are crashing, and also when i go to Settings->Storage i get "Settings has stopped". This also happens for Settings->Apps.
Now i've reflashed pandora but i think something from garuda remains because i still get the errors from it even with pandora installed. And i know this because every time i reboot, after the cm9 logo i get "Android is upgrading. Optimizing xx from xx apps". I've only seen this with garuda.
I wanted to try aries kernel now but cannot download it because i cannot see the card and i'm also at work so i'm not able to connect the phone to the pc and copy the kernel from recovery mode because of the restrictions on the computer....It's really messing my day...Should I do a clean install when I go home? What is the best cm version for this phone? I've also had 10.1 but this had problems with the alarm...like it only rang after i woke up and unlocked the phone...never at the hour selected...and also it drained the battery faster...Waiting for a good suggestion for this letter ...Thanks in advance!

For the sd card issue you can try multimount from the playstore
Also check the 4.3 roms as they are very stable and don't have any issues.
And before flashing any rom just do a factory reset, thats all...

You can try int2ext+.. it works fine.. just backup your apps using titanium backup or helium or similar and reflash the ROM with int2ext
Ok so finally I've managed to make everything work. First I tried to increase the memory using int2ext+ but it got stuck in cm logo loop, or I didn't wait enough I don't now, but then i reflashed using int4ext+ and it worked like a charm . So thanks everyone for the feedback and have a nice day...Cheers!
my experiences for htc explorer roms
more than 40 different rom and kernel for a long time I did try.
1-original stock rom-telephone conversations is extremely slow and sometimes do not sound or sound from the other side
2- CM7 - do not even need to comment ... very very impractical .
3- cm9 do not have any problems except for the opening of wifi for everyday use . There are original rum they use a much more streamlined and spacious
Everything was excellent but the 4- cm -10 is based on telephone interviews with purpose robot voice problem. solved the problem with different kernel installations
5- cm - 1.10 robotic voice problem ..
6 - cm 10.2 ( 4.3.1) and freezes a lot of memory problems programmer jobs Even though there is a friend that is useful for cm9 combinations up there and he's coming rom with different kernels .
Result : the value to be used as a result I have seen many times rom Trials following : Vanir AOSP (thanks 7alvi ) + sakindia aries 767 mhz oc kernel 3.5 stable and smooth with use .. If I find a single fault for making a phone call notification panel wide-screen mode by turning itself down opening.its got a lead on the issue .:good:

I don't know why you faced so much issues because for me there are no such problems..only cm9 wifi toggle issue was there before using aries kernel & ofcourse cm10.1 bluetooth toggle issue. I never faced robotic call or freezing problem on any rom.

Hey guys, ran into a problem, I was able to root mytouch 3g and installed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538633 3.6.8 release 4. Problem is when the phone goes sleepmode (screen turns black) after you wake it up the screen turns fuzzy/blurry. Is there an easy solution to this problem? or should I install a different ROM? Any suggestions? I really like this rom besides the blurry screen issue.
thanks for any help!
Hey same thing is happening to me...I wiped and reflashed but still having the problem
This is a problem many of us has encountered, I don't know why, try other ROM's I have found 1 that works for me.
I think it's a issue with the refresh rate of the screen.
Ditto. I have this problem as well with Cyanogen v4.0.1.
I've done the customary wipe prior to installing the ROM but the problem is the same.
This is the ROM I am using at the moment with no blurry screen problem.

i'm not using cyanogen but i am experiencing this issue with ZeroXd's Casper-4.2r2. i'm going to wipe the phone again and start over. So far, the Casper ROM is the only one that won't work for me and it was working well too
I'm having the same issue, but have ONLY noticed it with HERO-based roms. The Cyanogen 4.0.1 rom looked/worked fine.
Interested in the "fix" here...
Screen turns blurry
I am having the same issue but ONLY with the Hero roms. Cyanogen's new 4.xx roms are the frackin bomb so I'm not too sad. They work great for me. Definately want to know how to fix the issue though.

The v3 noname I tried was on a newly partitioned/formatted sd card. :-\ QTek's is still going strong though. With the v3, after the first sleep it was blurry. I've been running QTek's for about 30-45 minutes now and no issues.
+1 to this issue. i had the same problem with some cyanogen ports in the sapphire thread, but using new cyan roms has not given me any issues. also noted that formatting does not help.
possibly an issue with engineering SPL?
i also noticed that a rom would flash fine, but as soon as my screen would lock thats when the issue would occur.
i wonder if it is a kernel / spl incompatibility. I had this same issue with JACxROM that runs great on and ION and is bassically the same phone. So I am a little confused. I am going to try and use Cyanogens newest 4.0.1 build and copy the boot.img to a JACxROM v1.3 and see if it does the same thing or not. Will report back to let you know what happened.
I have tried to use following HERO ROMs but they all turns blurry after sleep mode (when I unlock screen by pressing menu or similar button)
Champion v2, Fullv2 No Name, Superlite Hero etc.

Is this possibly *part* of the issue here? I'm using the "1 click" root method as well. Also, my SD card does have the proper 3 partitions, if that means anything.
Just installed the JACxHEROskiv1.4 ROM, which does not appear to exhibit this behavior. Nice ROM so far!

I used the gold card method to root and I am experiencing the same thing with all the HERO roms. When you try to reinstall Cyanogens ROM's afterwards you experience the same thing. Only way I found to fix it was to format the SD card.

We really need a fix for this. I am dying to use some Hero ROM's.
Well I fixed mine, I clean wiped everything and installed the cyanogen 4.0.1 rom. All is good now. I haven't messed with Hero, but I am liking the new cyanogen rom and he fixed the screen problem as well.

Although the problem still exists, but now, at least I know that there are some other persons on the planet who suffer just like me! It also indicates that it is a systematic problem and there may be a solution. We have to keep trying.
I dont have any problems on wifi. I dont use wifi much since I rely on data connection. But phone/ROM scans and displays network without any problems.
Currently Im using AOKP milestone build #6 and its stable apart from some minor bugs.
See if you can use wifi tethering....

I also have exact same problem - NO WIFI on Android 4.x.x. Problem is related to SIM card and Baseband issue. If you flash ROM with no SIM card, wifi works! If you install SIM card wifi no longer works.
First discovered this when I upgraded from Froyo to LG 2.3.3 and the wireless would not work then, and I had to change network selection from Automatic, and select my service provider manually to get WiFi to work. I think the problem with 4.x.x is similar, but it gives an error trying to manually select the service provider, so wifi does not work.
I have 20G baseband (latest I think).
Does anyone else have error when selecting service provider manually?
CyanogenMod-7 nightly builds wifi works perfectly. Just fails with any 4.x.x versions.
Problem Solved!!

I would have posted this in the Sensation Android development area, but I don't have sufficient privileges to do so.
I no longer have WiFi.
I am using the 4.1.2 CM Kang, and I originally had WiFi working with that ROM, but it stopped working about a weeks ago, and I can't get it to come back.
If I watch the Wifi on/off toggle, I can see it blink white for a split second then return to grayed out about once every 5-10 seconds.
I've checked the WiFi settings, and the only thing that looks peculiar is that the region code under Advanced says "Europe," but when I try to change that, it just reverts.
I have tried a factory data reset,re-flash of the ROM, and installing newer versions of the ROM with no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I tried to install WiFix Manager, and I followed the directions closely, but WiFi still will not turn on.
The country code always reverts back to Europe in the Advanced WiFi Settings.
I'm on T-Mobile US, running AOKP aokp_pyramid_unofficial_Oct-19-12.zip; a JB ROM; 4.1.2
I previously tried the CM10 Kang for the HTC Sensation, but switched ROMs to make sure that it wasn't issue with the ROM.
To be clear, my problem is not that the WiFi radio never locks to a particular signal, it's that the WiFi radio won't even turn on.
When I go to WiFi settings it just says, "Turning on WiFi...," and never actually turns on.
My best guess was that it had something to do with the WiFi country code, but that's really just a stab in the dark; open to suggestions.
Thanks

In order of easiest and quickest to longest time it will take to do each one...
Install the latest version of the ROM (10/23) overtop of your existing rom (5 minutes)
If that doesn't work...
Do a full wipe and install a fresh copy of the latest version. (15 minutes, with Nandroid backup)
If that doesn't work...
Format your SD card (save all the contents to your computer first) (40 minutes between copying every to the computer and back to the SD card)
NON ROM RELATED OPTION IF YOU ARE S-OFF
Reinstall your firmware as it's possible something got messed up. You will have to boot to recovery after this and wipe cache and dalvik or you will get bootloops. (5 minutes, but a little more involved)
My guess is that the full wipe and fresh install is the most likely to work the first time.

is there a sensation specific guide for this procedure?
Still perplexed
How do I know which kernel and radio combination should work best with my ROM. I switched out to AOKP to see if that was the problem, and I believe I'm using the 3.33 Kernel, but I don't know how to check to make sure it installed correctly.
Had the same problem as you but a full wipe and reflash would bring it back. Seems to be a CM10 problem since it happens with Bruce's and Paranoid roms. Try a Sense rom and see if wifi works.
Is OpenSense considered a "Sense ROM?"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926858
Try that rom, more stable and better performance than all the popular roms.
I had the same problem only option was another room Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_6.8.0 (this is the rom)
so long, and thanks for all of the fish...
I figured it out.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S III. WiFi is working again.

wifi cm10
I have tried several CM10 roms. It is as you said about the region code. It reverts back to the original and doesnt save it on the settings
Even though editing db file doesn't work. Actually it changes the country code. I guess the ROM changes it during booting. Because while it boots you can see that the wifi is connecting first then goes off. I have tried several roms. DOnno what the problem is. probably JB both on cm10 and aokp
hey im new to the forum and i rooted my s3 and have the r420 senergy rom installed but the wifi dooesnt work! uhhhhh i cant post in the development section till i have 10 posts. so any one who can help that would be great. ive been doing a lot of reading and what is the differnce between nightly and and regular roms? and i read that the wifi wont work on the nightly rom with out a kernel flash?>?>? Is this right? im going to try the v1.6 senergy any way .....my model is the i535 but yall probably already know that because you hacked my ip address and seen my phone plugged in J/K ha thanks in advance
First off, Synergy r433 is the latest version. And a new release is scheduled to drop any minute now.
A nightly is an experimental build that gets updated nightly. Whereas a stable build is less frequent but as the name suggests is stable. Nightly you must really know what you're doing and are be okay with occasional bugs, otherwise use the stable releases. (fyi SynergyROM stopped releasing nightlies)
As for your Wifi problem, reflash but the make sure you do a full factory reset, and then a super wipe within the AROMA installer. *This will wipe internal storage, make sure to have the ROM zip on external storage* Wifi is not bugged, I'm suggesting the was a flashing error.
Sent via SGS3 using Tapatalk
Thank you so much for replying. i was thinking the same about the nightly "name" but thanks for clarifying. i have tried several times. in clockworkmod recovery(or whatever the name is) i factory reset and in the installer i wipe everything. (on the internal sd) and then install cleanly. but my kernel doesnt flashed it says its not unlocked.?!?! how do i unock it? i unlocked the bootloader and once more so i knew for sure. and my phone says custom with a padlock unlocked symbol below. but same thing everytime...wifi is buggy. i like this rom and just want it to work...thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!! is there a special "better" kernel unlock method? my paitients are getting low...lol well my girl wants her phone stock ...F**CK THATT!!!!!!!!!! thanks man

I am experiencing the same issue.
I rooted, flashed CWO, and then installed synergy. Nothing worked... then I read that you need to unlock the bootrom so I did that, rebooted and got the same... no wifi. After unlocking the bootloader I reinstalled synergy (R484) and still WiFi will not turn on.
I followed they synergy thread for flashing and This thread for bootloader unlocks.
Provider: Verizon
Phone: GS3
ROM: SynergyROM (r484)
Recovery: ClockworkOrange
Got it fixed!
So... I only used odin... no romloader apps or any of that crap...
1: Reinstalled stock ROM
2: Reinstalled CWO
3: Reinstalled Root+Bootloader
4: Reinstalled SynergyROM
5: Enjoy! Wifi works, all applications work!

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 have the 15.3.A.1.17 and 15.0.A.2.17, which one?
I use flashtool... should I flash everything (including the kernel)?

15.3.A.1.14 or higher. Always flash the latest firmware if possible.

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.
