[Q] Wifi Problem with Android 2.3.5 on Captivate - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I upgraded to 2.3.5 ( Baseband I897UCKJ2 ), everything works great except the Wifi. Wifi does work, but the problem is once I move out of the current network ( as in when I go to home after work ), it says it is still connected to the work network and doesn't get connected to home network automatically. So, I have to reset WiFi every time. Any help or fix to this would be a great Help!
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thanks in Advance ,

Give the app "Fix My WIFI" a try, you can find it in the market. Seems to have helped out on my reconnection issues, which were the same as yours, although I am running 2.3.4. From what I can tell, it will automatically reset the wifi when a valid connection point is available.

I had the same problem on KJ2. Try updating to KJ3; that solved it for me

the same happends to my galaxy s. it says remember, the u turn wifi off. then u turn wifi on, and it will get ip, first will fail, and the will get it corectly. and it will remain permanently connected. the (*) means that the connection is AD-HOC. i know its kinda buggy but its the best option we have now. i've searched the whole google and i couldn't find a better version. enjoy.
yes, me too T_T : difficultly connect
So, now i will use it til the new one comes
i just flashed the latest official rom 2.3.6 jvu. and now the wpa_supplicant doesn't work anymore. i rolled back to jvz (ad-hoc worked there with this modified wpa_supplicant), and now it doesn't work at all. i turn on wifi (it turns on really slow), and it doesn't see any wifi connection. any solutions guys? please

Can anyone build wpa_supplicant supporting ad-hoc wifi for 4.0.3 or CM9.
The files are not working on gingerbread 2.3.6, kernel xxjw4, SE INFRA. Could someone please make it work? thanks

[9001] Wifi and Bluetooth issues

hello everyone, I just registered here for a couple issues with my girlfriend's i9001, it basically can't find Wifi connections, once you click the button to activate the wifi, it shows a green check for few mins while looking for connections and suddenly it deactivates by itself...
I read around about a file to remove via terminal emulator, the bcm_supp.conf one, but I can't find that file...
does anyone have any idea/solution for it? currently she uses internet via 3g (monthly charges) but it would be cool to be able to use the home wifi...
about bluetooth instead, it just can't find other bluetooth devices and vice versa, my nokia 5800 can't find it even if the "visible" option is activated.
ideas?
I'm going crazy about it, I already tried several hard resets and flashed the phone first with 2.3.5 and then with 2.3.6 firmwares... nothing fixed the issues...
thanks in advance for any response
ps: sorry for my english, I'm italian >_<
i had exactly the same wifi issue but flashing a new rom solved the problem. reset and reflashing the same rom didn't help. you tried several 2.3.6 versions?
you might try flashing another modem.

[Q] 3g, and wireless problem on my P990

Hi guys,
Because of the performance issues 10 days ago I decided to install custom rom so first I rooted my phone. After that I found the installing custom rom is diffucult (because I am noob) so decided not to do it.( i really didnt do anything except rooting).
2days ago because of performance issues again, I decided to reset my phone to factory settings by the option in the settings. During the prosses phone reseted itself and stayed at lg logo( light and lg logo came and went continiously). So i gave my phone to technical servise and they fixed it. (probably reinstalled the system).
But now I have problem with 3g and wireless. For example, wireless and 3g is switched off in settings but I still have internet connection( so stupid) and when i try to connect my wireless connection at home it fails until i open 3g. After opening 3g, it connects wireless and shows signal strength of wireless but after closing 3g, it doesnt show signal strength.
Does any of you experienced such problem and know the solution ???? Help me please.
Thanks a lot in advance.

(after factory reset, no update)
Hi, I never had this problem. My suggestion is to root the phone and try to flash a new rom. Search "Django Manouche 1.2 Renaissance", based on stock kernel v20q Gingerbread 2.3.4. I try it for a long time and i think is a very fast and stable rom. For install a rom you need tp flash a custom recovery. In XDA forum there are many posts that explain this. I hope to check out was helpful
