[Q] no wifi with latest thunderclap kernel - Sony Xperia L

hey all,
I got an annoying problem....am sure someone over here experienced the same.
I have installed the latest version of cm, which works fantastic.
However i would like to use the thunderclap kernel.
Every time i put the last kernel on my phone my wifi stops working.
when i look it up, it stays grey....also mac adres etc. is empty.
Someone got an idea how to fix this?
Thanx,
Jadevinski

I have the same problem, after flashing a ROM, and installing latest CWM, i can't turn on Wifi on the phone, when i press the wifi button it turns up, and then down again...

Fix for wifi freeze after wake-up from sleep

I know this works on vegan 5.1.1. Tried other kernels and had the problem with the wifi not working or frozen after wake-up. Turn off or on doesn't work and the only solution was a reboot. Perehoots 3/27 kernel seems to fix it whereas his latest 4/01 version seeks to bring the problem back.
Not sure which forum this info should be posted in.

Hey this seems promising. i just got a new gTab and I flashed CM7. I don't get notifications when my screen is off and also my WiFi keeps losing connection. I need to toggle the wifi icon to get it back. this post of yours seems to address it. Can you give a noob guide to what I need to do? Does pershoot's kernel replace CM7 or add to it? Do I do the same - download zip, boot to clockwork, flash from sd card thing?
Wi-Fi
Who knows how to set up Wi-Fi on Linux.
Shall describe the step by step please.

[Q] Cannot enable WiFi on TF101

Odd thing happened today. I was testing out the EOS cornerstone new rom and was having issues with WiFi so I restored my Stock ICS setup but now I can not enable the WiFi.
The WiFi icon is greyed out on the settings tab and I can not swipe the WiFi to on in the settings app.
Has anyone seen this before? Did the WiFi die?
Just flash the ROM you were using again without any wipe. (Flash the ROM that your backup is base upon)
It seems the backup has the HC version of the wifi. I flashed the other rom again and the wifi is working fine.
Thanks.

Just flash Revolver ROM again, no wipe needed
I installed the AOSP test build of ICS, now I too am having wifi issues. I saw the ROM had it listed that there was a bug with the wifi so I didn't think much of it at first. I then installed Android Revolution but now the wifi still doesn't work.
I accidentally deleted my backup ROM..
Tablet says no MAC address found, and wifi settings app just hangs when trying to turn on.. I've re-flashed numerous times.. I've formatted all the partitions, re-flashed again....
Any ideas?
I had to flash the rom again (EOS cornerstone) and the wifi started working. I just ended up flashing the stock ICS from the asus site to start freh again.
It seems like the backup in CWM does something strange with the wifi driver.
I'm start a new thread here.

I reflashed EOS, wifi works, but i now have a different MAC address than I did before.

[Q] Strange Problem?

Hi guys, I got the nexus 5 a while back and I have successfully rooted and flashed Cataclysm ROM with the Elemental Kernel.
I have a really strange problem where the WiFi does not work at all. I turn the WiFi on, but it does not scan and find any networks, so I cannot see any WiFi networks in the area. I reflashed the ROM cleanly and the problem went away for a while, but it is now back and I cannot find and networks around me.
The only network it picks up is my home network that I set the phone up with when it was working, but now I have to enter even that manually.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does the wifi work when you do not use the Cataclysm ROM and it was completely stock? Or before you even started did you just root it and load a ROM?

hehe yeah, i had stock for about 2 days but then cataclysm persuaded me!
That is strange because I am running it along with Franco Kernel and I am doing fine..... Are you doing anything else?

Can't turn on wifi

Hi guys,
As the title stated, I couldn't get the wifi to work at all. I tried flashing both stock and custom roms, but I still couldn't make it work. When I slide the wifi "on", it immediately slides back to "off". It didn't even scan for networks. Does anyone know what is the cause of this problem and how can I fix it? The last working custom rom I used was the Infusion rom. Right after I install the stock firmware, the wifi no longer works anymore.
Thanks.

I got the same exact problem after I flashed the faux kernel. :/ Were you able to find a solution yet?

[Q] Strange problem with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Wireless tethering

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.

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.
