Hello,
I'm using Senseless Extreme with good WiFi reception.
I have flashed HyperSensation-CM7.1-v0.7 and found out that WiFi reception become very very weak in the same settings.
Is there any chance to find out the difference in between those ROMs and tweak the Sensation CM7 to get better WiFi reception?
Thanks in advance.

They are very different ROMs. Mine is based off a sense base and CM7 is like stock android !
wifi driver?

i would assume that's depend on wifi driver - can it be ported over?
persiansown: sorry, i have not tried your rom yet.
some devs improve their wifi drivers for better range and whatnot. cm7 isnt fully stable and its devs havent put those things in yet. try Cdtdroids roms. he does em great!
sense kernel w/ broadcom firmware

the module for the broadcom wifi chip is in sense stock ROM, as well as firmware and fine tune parameters.
seems like on CM kernels there is no tweaks on that level, and for me that's kinda unusual (on my gentoo box it's a usual routine to build my own specific kernel)
or well, I have not tried Cdtdroid's roms so will give it a try
thanks

How are you quantifying Good and Very Weak ? If it's just the WIFI bars you need to realise that they have NO direct correlation with the actual signal.
It's easy to spoof perceived signal strength based on the bars shown.
Do the different ROMs you mention actually perform differently ?
There is a way to see what the RSSI value is, can't remember where it is in the settings. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength_indication
The difference is in ability to connect to the router from a next room, on one - I can comfortably browse, on another - I can not even connect to the AP.

Ahh, OK a real world issue. Hmm that's concerning.
Hmm, more digging needed. GL and I'll keep an eye out for any useful info.
Thanks a lot.
Drop me a PM if you need some testing.
I would love to see bare minimal ROM.
I think most of the sense roms have some improved wifi drivers over the CM/ASOP based ones.
MIUI-110280 build good reception
I am toying with MIUI ROM and the wifi reception is similar to SenslessExtreme and there is CM kernel.
so i think it's matter of the firmware and settings for broadcom wifi chip
Does this happen to anybody else? When I'm on an ics rom my signal strength slowly degrades (i.e. i get less bars) until my network simply doesn't work anymore and I am unable to send/receive text messages or calls. 1-clicking back to stock then reflashing the rom fixes this. This has happened to me on AOKP, eriks miui and itzik2shs hebmiui. Why does this happen? Is there anyway to prevent it?

I noticed that my cell network signal strength doesn't seem as strong on ICS roms as well, or it'simply reporting it differently? Always seems lower than on GB. OFF TOPIC: I sorta want to try Barebone but I can't stand the stock galaxy lock screen. So for now I'm still on ICS.

It seems that bare bones still had the same signal for me after going back to stock. I went back to aokp ics and got around 0-2 bars. Then as soon as I calIed someone it went to a perfect 4 bars. Try calling someone?

I'm running the 4.2.2 PAC ROM (Paranoid + AOKP + CyanogenMod), the only listed issue is a minor screen error when using the Pi feature, however I've noticed that my cellular signal is frequently dropping, and when I do have reception, it only lasts for about 5 seconds. Bell is my service provider so I know it's definitely not poor signal that is causing this. I was also running a previous custom rom by AOKP and everything was working perfectly fine so I know that I don't have any hardware problems. I really enjoy all the features of this custom rom but it's destroying my phone, even though it's updated nightly, I am not sure how much progress is made per update. The rate of battery drain is ridiculously high, about 1% every 2 minutes. It could just be that i'm being impatient considering the ROM is fairly new. Anyone else dealing with these issues? Has anyone found a solution? I don't know if it's the rom or if I'm doing something wrong, any sort of guide or analysis and response would be greatly appreciated!
Make sure you're using ucmc1 radio.

Does anyone expreinced low and unstable signal on sim that used for data?
this happen on any rom i've tried so far (rr,aicp,mokee,lineage,xosp) excpet on miui rom and cm 13 by team superluminal. for example my 4g signal is supposed to always full when im in my house using miui and cm 13 ts rom, but on others rom singal is very weak.
many people on my facebook group have expreinced this too, and many of them even didn't notice this problem.
yep on outdoor use, signal can go full bar but its still going down and ups (unstable)
any ideas whats happening ? thanks
I have installed several roms and the best one so far has been linage os gsi rom from openkirin, the only issue is that network signal is low as well as data speed which sucks. Any recommendations? Please
