[Q] Fixing Wi-fi without reformatting?

Hey, in the last few weeks I've run into a very annoying bug on my phone. Wi-fi turns itself off after about 2 minutes. It doesn't actually "turn itself off" in the phone - and by that I mean that the wifi icon is still there, and I can see the signal strength, but the internet won't work.
In order to fix it, I have to turn the wifi off and then on again.
I've tried using the Wifi Fixer application, but it doesn't help. It can't seem to detect when I lose my internet connection.
I've also troubleshooted it, checking that it occurs on different routers/types of networks.
I'm sure it's a problem with my phone, but I dont really want to reformat my phone until Froyo comes (since I don't want to have to install all my apps twice).
Is there any solution to this? ;z
I'm on stock rom, JF3, with OCLF.

I have the same problem with my phone. My Wi-Fi at home works just fine, but when I go to my brother's house, I seem to occasionally lose internet connection even though it shows that it's still connected to the Wi-Fi. I have stock Bell ROM with OCLF by RyanZA. Oh, and to fix it I simply turn Wi-Fi off, and then on, and it starts working again.

Bump :x
Anyone have a solution?

Wi-Fi Not Working (Nookie Froyo)

My wifi keeps cycling between on and off on my Nook. Sometimes it will stay on, and appear like it wants to connect to my wifi, but all it does is get stuck at the "obtaining ip address" portion of the process.
What do I need to do to remedy this?

I found the same problem, I can say that the Froya rom is almost perfect for me, except the problem that the WIFI lost and cyclical on and off. I tried many ways recomeended but no luck.
If someone can help to solve this please !!!

I had this problem before, and it was because of an improper flash. I skipped a step of wiping data and cache before applying the flash.

Settings -> Date & Time -> UNCHECK Automatic
that solved most of the problem for me.. its still unreliable, but atleast it doesnt get stuck in a loop anymore.

Maybe you should delete all networks registered on your phone. in case you have chosen to remember some WiFi networks in the past.
Then turn off/on your wifi network

try to clear cache and dalvik cache in xrecovery

Wifi dying after a period of time.
I have a similar issue with my X8.
The Wifi works fine for a while (longest so far has been about a month) and then it just stops working. It picks up no signal what so ever from anywhere (my home router, which is about a metre away, is currently "Not in Range").
I've tried multiple versions of Android 2.2 from XDA and am now running 2.3 from the following link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109563
The only way i've found to bring back the Wifi is to do a FULL restore (system, data, cache, everything). I've done abt 6 restores since i started using custom ROM's about 4 months back and am in the situation where i have to do another one now. This is getting EXTREMELY irritating and I would very much appreciate it if someone could give me a solution for this.
Also, I have a lot of trouble connecting to the internet at my uni. This has been an issue from the very beginning on the X8, even before using custom ROMs. It connects the first time and then refuses to connect a second time. To connect again i have to forget the connection and start again. I don't know to describe the Wifi type but the instructions for connecting to it are in the following link http://uqconnect.net/helpdesk/wireless/eduroam/android/.
Thanks in advance

have this problem too. when i was on GDXv007 was fine then when it update to v008 i cant connect to wifi anymore.just keeps saying "obtaining ip addrees" then reboots. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

Yes, this was helpful... But I have to Delete the networks I remembered, always?

Wi-Fi enabled not recognize networks..

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to solve this annoying (big) problem.
I have CM7.2 by Xperiafan V5 as ROM
and X8_07-ICS_Alfs as kernel.
but this problem happened also in other ROMS GDX mainly used up 1 week ago.
The problem is: I use my wi-fi connection for a while, even 3-5 days. No problem.
Then when I reactivate wi-fi it seems looking for I dont know what and it rest activated but not connect my network.
I tried to change advanced settings: channels, rescan...
Nothing works...
The only solution is:
1) I have to manually delete all networks
2) disable wi-fi
3) then enable it again so it this time rescan correctly the networks
4) re-select my network
5) re-insert the pwd.
Sometime, as 1 time on 5-6, even this dont works, so I have to add after point 1 do a REBOOT and it works :-/ :-| :-/
Some suggestion? THX a lot!!!!

I have the same problem but I,switch the Wifi off and re activate it I find networks.

this happened to me...
try this https://market.android.com/details?...nBlcnNvbmFsLmpoamVvbmcuYXBwLldpRmlQaWNrZXIiXQ..
enable wifi using 'stock' wifi on mobile, and scan network with this... I have no problems with this anymore

Which of WiFi security type do You use ? There are problems with gaining IP address from WPA/WPA2-PSK.
I have problems to, but what I'm doing is:
1). Connect [it's telling me, that it's out of range]
2). I simply press "scan" and that's all
