[Q] wifi error after new kernel - LG Optimus 2x

I have a v20l and i flashed the hp kernel but now wifi gives an error
I flashed the hp for v20l from spica1234's thread
Can this problem be solved?

I tried that but didnt work, any other suggestions?

what kernel do you use? RC9 or SR2? in my exprience SR2 gave me wifi error ater 1 day hours of usage. and juice defender is also make it problems with HP kernel
right now i'm using RC9 and already 1 day 6 hours and still no error on wifi yet will let you know the progress. and i set the wilress sleep policy when screen turns off

I was using rc 9,
But now the problem is solved, first i flashed performance pack 7 and then rc 9 again and it helped.
But still dont no what was causing the problem

ow, so you have already flashed the RC9 kernel. maybe because the wifi module still use v10e on sr2, in RC9 used v20L sources
but in rc9 tun.ko can't smooth working like in sr2

Hi
I see a lot of people complaining about wifi problems
Even thought it was a faulty device, but it does not look that way
How to really fix the issue ?
Its not a cheap / low end device to just keep rebooting everytime as a workaround
For ex, i put the phone in airplane mode, just to check, then turn off airplane
and wifi dies...
Or if i disable wifi, and try to enable again, same problems
Here i use a tplink WR1043ND, has good signal, and i use with b/g/n - WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK with AES sec key.
If i change to another encryption, its gonna work better ?
I bought this device last week, and if i cant use wifi security and have problems like that, i will be forced to return to the seller
tks

nah, in here we discuss about the HP kernel not stock kernel. in stock kernel the wifi module will be okay and it support both wpa-psk or wpa2-psk

Hi
Ok, so i guess its a problem with the device
Anyway tomorrow i will return it to the seller and get another one
tks !

ow, so you are on in stock right now if i'm right. yeah you should return to the seller. or maybe you want to flash with CM7.1

Hi, will install CM (already had on my defy, but the device broken)
The problem is that the lg2x lost the touch, so gonna grab a new one, dunno if it was a hardware problem or just a problem with the flash
tks

CM7 latest nightly Wifi issues

I just flashed the latest nightly(#85) over 7.0.3 stable. It flashed with no issues, but I noticed that Wifi is cycling on and off. I tried nightlies #83 and #84 and all do the same thing. I restore back to the latest stable ROM and it doesn't have any issues. Any ideas?
I'm having some problems as well with 87. It was running for a while, with weak signals... and now it just stopped working altogether. I tried a hard reboot and still the same. Tried to fix permissions and reboot again, still nada. It's like it's not detecting any network at all.
I never get why so many people have problems and so many others don't.
I was having issues on 7.0.3 but since I've went to N87, I've had little if any problems.

This makes me hesitate- I "was" going to make the jump from stable to nightly's--not sure at this point!
I also cannot get the wifi to stay on. I prob will go back to stable with OC but does anyone know if 7.0.3 has the sleep of death fixed?

Try it, just about all my wifi issues disappeared with N87.
It seems to be some people have the issue, some don't.
No one seems to know why.

It does not.
ive had no wifi issues with n87
My wifi issues are this:
Noname Generic wifi router at work using WEP: Rocksolid
Trendnet Cheap wifi router at home using WEP: Rocksolid
New Belkin wifi router at home using WPA: dropped wifi every few minutes.
So I guess it depends on how much security and speed you want from your router.

[Q] Wifi Disconnecting in Gingerbread

My wifi is constantly getting disconnected. I have to reconnect many times a day. This is really getting frustrating. It was working fine(very much FINE) on froyo 2.2.1 xxkb3 rooted and deodexed but after i updated to 2.3.4 gingerbread, this problem began! Is there someone who might be knowing what the problem is????
First i tried stock XXKPH, then i tried after CF root and after that i thought a custom ROM might help so i installed GanaROM but wifi is not working properly in any one of them. It is getting diconnected if i don't use it for like 5-10 minutes. And i have even turned the wifi sleep policy in the advanced wifi settings to NEVER. But still!!
USE CONNECTIFY v1.20

I have the problem like this. Can you try to ping 8.8.8.8 from console of your phone? I have almost 80% of lost packets. If you will see this, you have to change your WiFi router. I've tested my phone with 3 routers and only with Asus 520GU I can't use WiFi with GB (with Froyo all is perfect)

Yes, I have this problem and still don't have solution. That's why I'm at Froyo. I don't want to change my home WiFi router if I'm not sure that the phone will work with new one.

[Q] Do have the same problem? (wi-fi)

Hello.
I've tryed many ROMs that are here in xda: Froyobread, GingerDX, GingerXperia, kuyaDROID, xGin, etc... And now I am using Stornmix with stock kernel.
But in all this ROMs I've had always the same problem: wi-fi.
My wi-fi connection works good during 1 or 2 minutes. Then it stops working and I can't use the browser nor the market or other app that uses internet connection.
When I turn off and on again the Wi-fi, the internet connection comes back good, but the same happens after few time.
I even tryed 1 wi-fi fix that i've found here, but didn't solve my problem.
Have you guys experienced this problem too?
Any clue how to solve it?

It is already that way.
Always have been.
Delete the remembered connections.Sometimes too much of them cause problems.
There's a compatibility issue with WPA-AES encryption. It's been discussed here and somewhere else (official SE forum i think). Not much to do about it...

Scratch the "AES" and make it "EAP" ...
IF AES would be a problem I think no one of us could connect to their access points as WPA/2 actually uses AES for encryption ...

I had a similar problem with GDX back in the days of v012 onwards. The WiFi connection wouldn't completely die but only go through a disconnect/reconnect loop every 2-5 minutes (unless I used "Wifi Static" to set a static IP configuration for my access point).
I solved the "disconnect/reconnect loop while using DHCP" problem by switching to another WiFi channel (my Access Point automatically determined channel 1 to be the best choice ... I later on switched to channel 11 and the problems fixed itself) - sounds weird, but worked.
You may give it a try.
On the other hand we already had weird WiFi problems which really didn't go away unless one flashed back to stock (where the WiFi suddenly worked flawlessly again) and changed over to the custom ROM again from there.

Thank you for your help, I'll try that and see if it improves my wi-fi.
And yes, as I can remember, it worked nice with the stock rom.

[Q] Yet Another wifi ICS issue

Hey peeps, ti me for my first post.
Well i upgraded tO stock germanICS a couple of days back. Everything was working fine until yesterday. WiFi is behaving weird, i can connect with no probs at home but i've noticed that the download arrow from the WiFi icon on status bar is on and off all the time, draining the battery faster than expected(e.g. rom 100% to 65% 3 hours almost no use). So i spoke with a friend of mine, kind of a geek, he told me it could be so me kind of compatibility issue between ICS and old router's firmware. So i went to a bar nearby to check if i could reproduce the same behaviour and everything was working normal.
Did Anyone here had anything similar? I've been surfing to do so me research, but all i've found is so me peoples probs with WiFi not connecting at all and some sII users withe their WiFi module broken.
Thanks in advance!
Also...
I´ve read somewhere that a factory wipe solved some wifi´s peoples probs. As i´m under german ICS LPY i know i´ll be likely bricking the note if i wipe, what leads to teh next question...is it possible to flash a kernell(without the bug) without being root?
Cheers,
VR
edit
So i´ve been reading quite some info about franco´s and speedmod´s kernels, and it´s so confusing for starters.My last question remains , is it possible to flash those for a non rooted device? Anyone that is running it tried wiping? Results?
Thx again
Edit 2
After some research i now know i need to root for any new kernel flash, as i read my post i´m starting to feel i´ve lost my head somewhere, so bear with me, hehehe. Also found out some people tried wiping with franco´s kernel with no probs, so i almost have the info i was looking for. So, in case i go root and get franco´s kernel up and running, do you think my WIFI issues might dissapear after wiping?
I have the same bug...with wifi also the os android buy draining ny battery so bad...im on stick rom gb 2.3.6 with the ssme oroblem....any solution?

Wi-Fi poblem in JB ROMS

After the wifi fix ( thanks to all devs who worked hard for that ) I am able to connect to my wifi.
But the problem is, I am not able to access my internet. The problem is the same for all JB ROMS(CM 10, miui v5). All I get is short bursts of access to internet during which webpage loads for a bit and just sticks there. Can't access the playstore too. It just gets stuck at signing in.
My wi-fi is good as I am using the same on my laptop.
Can't seem to figure out what the problem is and am sadly stuck on ICS.
Any help would be great...

I don't have this problem ... so its just with your phone try to reflash the ROM
It's just you. Noone else has that problem.

That's what confuses me...How come is it only me having this problem..
I have tried flashing the ROM for 4-5 times now but each time it's the same...
Have tried doing complete wipe, with and without wiping /system, tried both prometheus and NOPE kernels but the problem persists.
And its the same for cm10 and MIUI v5...haven't tried any other JB based ROMS.
Maybe i shall try to turn off security in my wifi..(can that by any chance be causing it??)
Tunring off wifi security can only cause people freeloading on your wifi. I dont know about the problem.
You could turn off password authentication and filter by MAC address, just to be safe and be able to test at the same time. Although, I had no problems on connecting to secure networks. There is an authentication problem on reconnect, though.
Finally solved..
Got my wi-fi to work finally....
The problem apparently was with encryption....got an idea from this HOX thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1989203
I earlier used to have a AES+TKIP encryption with WPA-PSK authentication....changing network authentication mode to OPEN made it work instantly.
But open connection = freeloaders...so tried a combination of WPA-PSK and TKIP and it worked too...haven't checked it with AES...
Finally wi-fi is working...
Thanks to everyone who tried to help out....i really appreciate it...

Further the wifi now disconnects only if no wifi related task is continuing and the phones locks up.
If a download is going on, it continues even after phone gets locked.
Just thought I should share that...
EDIT: airplane mode trick + wifi keep alive app (kudos to webhijacker for finding it out) does solve the Wi-fi issues..

And for the authinticating problem you can solve it by turning on airplane mod then turning off then tada
