[Q] weak wifi signal on HTC ONE X - General Questions and Answers

OK so iusing my limited intelligence, I managed to root and install Kitkat 4.4.4 rom onto phone (cyanogen).
Now even sitting next to the wifi router i get no more than 2 bars or signal(most usually one bar), if I go upstairs I get no signal at all. My old HTC desire Z works fine though, as does my galaxy tab and partners phone.
I tried the old renaming the phone trick to fix the wifi issues but all i get is "failed to rename device"
any ideas guys? I didnt notice wifi issues before updating rom (but i did only have it a day at the time)
thanks in advance

Have you tried connecting to a different network and seeing if you have connectivity issues with others as well?

Thanks

Extreme Wifi Issues

Ok I'm having a very annoying issue on my Inspire 4G. The phone recognizes my home wifi network and goes in a loop trying to connect and then reconnect. I have several other devices connecting to the wifi flawlessly - (iMac, iPad, Xbox, etc). Does the Inspire just get weak wifi signal strength, or is there something wrong with my phone? I'm considering returning it to get the Atrix. I also know other people have commented saying that they have this issue also. Is there a fix? Thanks

Had this problem. Went into wifi settings and clicked on the access point that it was trying to connect to. It asked me for my credential storage password or something (different than access point password) and after typing that in all has been well ever since.

Check your battery cover and sim card cover. Make sure that they are both installed properly with no gaps.
If you downgraded you phone using attn1 guide thats well known problem. I had same problem i flashed rom coredroid 6.8 and all is fine now.

[Q] Cellular phone connection dead from one minute to the next

So...
I am running my phone rooted, but mostly stock (just some removals) with ROM 1.53.401.2 and he 0.15.3150S.19_10.31501S.06L baseband.
Its been perfoming fine ever since so I never bothered to upgrade to a custom ROM or the newer basebands.
Its an EU unbranded phone. As of tonight, with nothing special done to it it seems to have lost all cell reception. All I get is An x where the 5 bars are. Funnily, when I turn of my WiFi router and select wireless internet, I can get online and download data through the cellular inetnet connection. But not a single call or SMS will go out.
I have moved to like every location in my apartmant and outside and nowhere I can even get a single bar of reception or even a call through.
Does anyone have any idea WTH this could be, what could have caused it? Any ideas on where to prod and poke for a solution?
Mine did that for the first day after I put a non-stock ROM on it...hasn't done it since. I took the piece that covers the SIM card off and popped it back on. I don't know what causes it though.

[Q] TrickDroid 7 wifi/signal problem

So, I flashed TrickDroid 7 and everything seemed to work fine, except that I couldn't connect to wifi. No big deal, I figured there was some kind of fix for it, and I found it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32170653&postcount=2668
I tried it, and it worked, but my signal dropped by half and my data connection was 3 or 2g. I decided to go back to what I had, and now I have 1-0 bars of signal, 2g, and no wifi... Any way I can fix this without flashing back to stock?
I'm on hboot 1.06 by the way, thanks!

[Q] WiFI Problems Even After New Kernel

Hello!
I have had terrible WiFi signal no matter what router I use for a very long time. Today I just flashed the fully stock JB image from Odin, then rooted and unlocked my bootloader to flash the 747 kernel because it said it had WiFI driver updates, but I still get terrible signal. I can barely use my WiFi at my house, my school, and at work. I know that there are known issues with the WiFi but I figured after the JB update or at least a new kernel with updated drivers, that it would be fixed.
The issue is not only that if it connects, it disconnects, but the reason it disconnects is because the signal is so weak (at least according to my phone). Most of the time I can't even see the WiFi networks but I had someone with a Galaxy S3 right next to me and they had perfect WiFi signal while I couldn't connect, so I am completely lost at what to do next.
Any help would be much appreciated
