I tried Modified Stock and the modem problem start after a bug with that one, so I tried Dirty Unicorn, AOSP, Temasek and the Stock to come back to factory pattern but no one solve the Wifi problem.

Same problem
I Tried CM13 for Falcon . Recent Nightlies .... 28-05-2016 till 30th .. but after that my wifi stopped working .. It is stuck on Turning ON...
So rolled back to stock. still the same problem.
When I try to turn ON Wifi the slider moves back to off now ..

Wi-Fi Won't turn on any more

Hey guys,
I've noticed in the last few days that my Wi-Fi just doesn't work any more. It won't even allow me to turn it on. When I go to the settings, it shows the option to turn Wi-Fi on, but it is greyed out now. I don't know what happened.
I'm using CM10 nightlies. I usually flash the new one every night and that's when I noticed this start happening. Since it started, I have tried flashing back to some older ones, even doing the full factory resets and cache wipes. No luck. Even after doing a fresh wipe, when the phone starts the initial google set up, the LTE isnt even working. It takes a few minutes for LTE to finally turn on, but the Wi-Fi has yet to.
Any suggestions as to what I should do?
Thanks

I just tried this right before I read your message. I wiped and flashed CleanROM 5.0. Sure enough Wi-Fi was working, but then went back to the CM10 ROM and it appears to not be working again. I've been looking at the CM10 thread and nobody else seems to be having this problem.

[Q] xt926 wifi does not turn on

Probably my own noob fault, but I think this is caused by wiping persist and firmware in CWM while attempting to flash CM10.2.
After rebooting wifi does not turn on. I have tried re-flashing stock using both rsdlite and DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.21 several times with no luck. Not sure if this is pertinent, but under advanced wifi options the MAC address is unknown.
My guess is that I have wiped something that is not restored in the stock images.
Obviously, the bootloader is unlocked so returning it is out of the question.
Anyone have any ideas?

It worked! I copied WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin to /persist with a root explorer and set the permissions for that file to -rw-rw--- then rebooted.
Download here: http://db.tt/3zIjckrQ
WiFi/4G issue resolved, mostly
So I put that file back into Persist partition and fix the permissions and got WiFi and 4G back, but only have 4G when WiFi is on! As soon as it loses WiFi it also loses 4G, which ironically is when I need it! lol, any idea how to remedy this? And dont get me wrong, i am very happy WiFi is on again. Oh, and when i lose 4G i go to 3G, at least my notification bar data icon displays 3G when WiFi goes out.

That might be a completely different issue. My LTE is working fine when I turn off the WiFi after this fix.

Whats up, my brother gave me his razr maxx hd xt926 yesterday and he wants me to switch it to GSM so he can use ST. I promised him ill do more than that with your phone! well when I got on my computer I was seeing that you cant unlock or get root because he had the latest update, this is what h its running 9.30.1 XT926 4.1.2 build 9.8.1q-94-1 . luckily I got root using saferoot that's one problem down. now I would be glad if anybody could point me in the right direction for the next step I should take to be able to get roms and that cool stuff. the switching to GSM looks like no problems. I know I need a recovery to. should I install a recovery first or do the GSM thing first witch one is best to do first? I already have root and phone is still locked.

I just flashed those 4 leaked Odin firmware files in latest Odin and everything is working perfectly since then. Bootloader is included in those 4 files, of course.
i had the same issue, just flash the bootloader again in custom recovery
edit: or try this:go to dialpad and call *#0011#; than tap menu, hit wifi and turn "wifi power save mode" off

I installed the deodoxed rooted frimware from cypher*(I am not sure about the name)
So do you think that I have to install the original one and wipe my data and everything again -_-
My Internet connection is very slow and barely installed this frimware I am using now
So if you have an easier workaround to fix this problem please share it with me
Thanks in advance ^_^

Nexus 5 stuck turning Wi-Fi on

Yesterday Wi-Fi works fine, but today it doesn't work.
I've always the "Turning Wi-Fi on..." message.
I had Puxe Nexus Rom, but then I've tried with stock rom and with a Nougat rom, but the problem persist.
I've do a lot of factory reset and try some tricks...
The only thing that happened:
I'm from Italy, this morning there was earthwake and in my town there was a tiny shock but it does not make sense that wifi no longer works...
Someone can help me?

I've installed multirom to try more rom.
I've installed Nougat as secondary, boot it, Wi-Fi works.
Reboot, Wi-Fi doesn't work.
Flash your .zip, nothing.
Re-install Nougat as secondary, boot it, Wi-Fi doesn't works yet. Do a dirty flash, nothing.
Install Nougat and flash open-gapps, Wi-Fi doesn't work. Flash your zip, same problem.
Before I've tried also with stock, using Nexus Root Toolkit and I've yet problem...
Only sometimes, when I flash a ROM, Wi-Fi works and it have a normal MAC address. When it doesn't work, it have 02:00:00:00:00:00.
EDIT: same problem with CyanogenMod.

You would have tried flashing the same custom ROM again and try flashing the Gapps this might have solved the issues

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.
