I searched all over the internet and was unable to find an answer or solution.
I Installed RegawMOD's latest rom.
Wifi was working just fine, The last time i remember that it was working was before used the toolbox and before installing 2 or 3 games. I think that something messed with my wifi driver because when i try to turn it on it says "unable to start wifi", then when i try to turn on airplane mode it says "unable to turn off wifi" When i try to run the Wireless Tether it says that the tethering started with errors that i should check the log. The log says the following from the bottom going up:
Tethering now running DONE
Enabling access control DONE
Enabling IP Forwarding DONE
Enabling NAT rules DONE
Activating wifi Interface FAILED
Configuring WIfi Interface FAILED
loading wlan.ko module FAILED
Does anybody have any useful information that may pertain to my situation?
Everything else is working perfectly. this is the only thing that has ceased to work.
This belongs in Q&A, not Dev.
Thread moved to Q&A.
This is a kernal issue go with darchDroid 2.7, it will fix that problem
did you flash a different kernel? What version of tether?
if you really feel it's the driver, pull the wlan.ko from the original zip and push it into place to overwrite.
I just encountered the same problem as the OP on my HTC Hero CDMA. I rooted my phone with RegawMOD3.0 yesterday and within a few hours my Wifi stopped working. I'm getting "unable to start wifi" and "unable to stop wifi" in airplane mode. The only other thing I did was get the Adblocker app, which i thought may have cause an issue so I did a factory reset on my phone and still no dice. From what I've read it's either the kernel or wifi driver and I'm unsure what one to try and fix first. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Kernel version:
2.6.29-ba77cf03
[email protected] #1
Firmeware version:
2.1-update1
Build number:
2.51.591.4 CL343325 release-keys
Well, whatever the issue was it was solved when I put cynogen 7.2 Nightly in. My Wifi is working perfectly now.
Yeah. I'm impressed they're still making nightlies for this phone.

Some more details on what items you downloaded and "psted" on /system could be helpful.
That error message usually appears when the OS is unable to initialize the wireless device. Have you tried rebooting to make sure it's not a temporary issue? Other than that, I would suggest flashing a different kernel - which should replace the wifi driver module and hopefully get it working again.
got it fixed.. i reverted to frg83 and wifi works well but when i update to frg83d, wifi error pops again.. i decided to stick with frg83 instead..
I install new ROM and now im tryin to connect my wifi point its stuck on "Obtaining IP adress"
ive try to reinstall the rom and i tried to reconnect my modem and all of thoses stuff;
what can i do?! thanks for helpin...
fixed ...
That's really, cool... Share the solution... other way your post is useless :/
Edit:
Here's what I found and for me works perfect!
nothing's wrong with WIFI in android..
don't get frustrated with android due to the problems caused by WIFI.
if WIFI doesn't turn on, I've assistance for u.
enter *#*#526#*#* and the error will not occur for some days.
use it again if required.
I just downloaded the 29-8-11 2.2.2 build on sourceforge and installed with latest .32 kernel.
But wireless not always working. If i restart the phone while wireless trying to open, it starts.
But after closing and trying to reopen it, no luck.
It first starts, tries to search the network and stops with "error"
First time i get an error like this. Tried the patch with aTools 1.3.0 and still nothing
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
And sorry for the bad English.
Good Day
I have the same problem, I cant begin wifi on "Scoot CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RLS3 (Gingerbread 2.3.5) + kernel .32"
Any idea, solution, tips?
Thanks
Hi all,
I recently flashed the cm-11-20140913-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin on my HP TP first time after WEBOS and love to have android on my TP. Although it was working perfectly regarding all aspects, but two days back wifi stops working suddenly and it doesn't turn on. When i slide the bar of wifi from OFF - ON it didn't move and the screen says WIFI TURNING ON and remains. After that i completely wiped all the data and flashed another version of CM11, it did work for some minutes and again the same problem with wifi. I then tried (After Wipping again) the old CM10.1 version with supported files but again it doesn't on from the start. One thing i want to mention that when i change the CM11 version it stops working after couple of minutes and then i shut down and check in the morning it was again working and then again stop after rebooting. I also tried to control it from WIFI Apps i.e. wifi control, wifi manager when it works for some minutes but the apps also failed to TURN ON THE WIFI when it fails from the system.
I also try to search this topic but i didnt find any which worked for me.
Any help regarding this issue would be highly appreciated.
Regards
No any Response:S
First of all, how did you "flash" the ROM? Are you using tptoolbox?
Also, there are several newer versions of jcsullins ROM available to install.
What gapps did you use?
Please provide more information on your part so folks are able to help you.

I have this same issue, wifi works fine on lollipop, but not on cm11, i originally used tp toolbox to remove webos, resize partitions and flash lollipop. I tried going to cm11 for full functionality and wifi would not work, i tried 3 different cm11 based roms and none worked, i went back to lollipop and wifi worked right away.
