[Q] Problem with wifi - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i have a problem with my wifi for almost two months.
wifi worked fine when it was first rooted and everything, and with almost all roms i have tried, but one day i tried to use supercharger and it killed my phone so i repaired it with flashtool (because companion and seus failed me) and rooted it again.
And then the problem started, it detects the modem and connect (sometimes) but its very VERY slow, i tried to use my backups, flash ftf things (baseband and etc for e15a), almost all roms and nothing, it works better with the original rom but not like the old good days.
i just use my phone for music and wifi, so it sucks.
i hope that someone can help me here~
Thanks.

[Q] Wifi broken, need help please

After a few days running Dlev's 4.2 ROM, my wifi stopped working suddenly. When I try to turn it on it says error or unable to start wifi. I've exhausted several initial options I began walking myself back through various ROM's back to the original 2.1 stock ROM. Without success I even performed a master clear and several reflashes of the orininal stock ROM, nothing is working. I tried FXR Wifi fix and rescue. Does anybody have any ideas on what I should do?
Thanks,

Kernel?
What kernel were you running with the custom ROM? Talon's being updated really frequently, so if it's Talon, you might try the latest version of that (0.4.4.22, as of this writing)

Did you try rebooting your router or device that gives you wireless signal? also see if other devices can connect.
It was Talon 0.4.4, but I've gone all the way back to stock ROM/kernel etc and that makes me think that this is a HW malfunction.
AT&T had me reboot the router too, my laptops are able to connect just fine. It's not really a connection problem either, Wifi will not turn on at all.
I called Samsung and they want me to ship them the phone, still debating that one since I will have to go without a phone.

[Q] unable to get data connection

Hi guys,
I'm being annoyed by my SGS about his data connection. Hope someone could help me!
Few days ago I flashed MIUI Mintberry 2.1.20 and everything was working like a charm, but this morning data connection switch failed several times.
I've tried to wipe everything, re-flash Mintberry and even to flash JVU stock with Odin, but I still can't switch on my data connection.
I can't even see any icon on the status bar.
Any idea? Is my phone broken?

Hmm this is strange, so you turned data on but theres no symbol, right? Have you tried installing another kernel (maybe also applying the Kernel Cleaning Script)?
I' ve tried everything with Odin, and at the moment I have a beautiful black screen of death.
Odin cannot recognize my phone... I'm very frustrated
EDIT: Upgrading Kies'drivers, I managed to connect the phone with Odin again, so I've flashed the lastest official stock firmware to check my antennas. In the worst case, I'll be able to go to the shop for assistance without problems.
Have u tried typin ur apn maually?

Sounds like a settings issue. Never heard of anyone have this problem before - I've flashed every version of mintberry including betas.
I just had this issue
I just had this and figured out what is wrong, its a easy fix too! Just go to settings and wireless and change the access point for your mobile connection. I had 2 access points and just switched it to the other one and my data started working again!
Hope I could help
Hi guys! thank you for all these answers!
I've tried to set APN manually, to change custom ROM and custom kernels and coming back to stock too, but still no data connection icon (neither data connection itself).
At the moment, I'm on JVO, the latest official italian firmware, everything is fine but 3g data connection.
Other ideas? Shall i need of Samsung customer service (I hope no!)?
Solved...
MIUI default settings fault: SMS notification has ran out my money and my provider has blocked 3g connection.
My phone is safe!

[Q] Wifi - Obtaining IP

I am several hours around my phone and still wasn't able to figure out what's wrong with the wifi.
So, for the start, i was using ICS 4.0.3 for about 2 months or something, everything was fine. Today i decided to install a custom JW5 to give it a try, since it has some "secundary" features that i would like to use. The problem came after this. At first, i installed everything just fine, on first boot i can connect my wifi to my router, but as i start to use the internet (browser or google play) it just disconnects after 5 seconds or so. After that, the wifi stay on a loop scan-obtain ip-disconnect. If i just switch off and on, it won't pass the obtain ip. For it connects, i must reboot the phone.
I thought it was a rom problem, so, i started trying another roms: jw5, jw4, jw1, all custom and all stock, none worked. I tried to use several modems, like jw4, jvq, jvu and so the same with kernels: semaphore kernel, stock kernel, everything. Nothing worked.
Although, i tried the old JVQ rom and wifi worked just fine. I didn't tried ICS again because i don't want to go back to it and neither i want to use an old rom like JVQ, so, is there any way to fix this?
Rebooting the modem and router didn't work aswell and i have 2 other computers using it just fine (just like the galaxy worked until today). If someone could help me, i appreciate, i'm really tired wasting time with this.
EDIT: i forgot to mention, i tried with static ip, didn't work either.
EDIT2: i already tried delete the file from /data/misc/dhcp too.

[Q] No mobile data

Hello Xda-Users:
I've been lurking this forum since I got my X8, like one year ago. I had a lot of problems with the stock kernel and ROM and they all got away when I flashed the excellent nAa kernel with the marvellous MiniCM7 rom. Anyway a few weeks ago I decided to try the S2Ext method in order to gain memory. I installed the app and prepared my sd card with variable results as I think it had a racing condition in which if the phone was booted and the sd card wasn't ready it made the cellphone crash in the worst of ways, though a reboot helped to get it straight.
Well I got fed up and decided to flash a fresh copy of MiniCM7 again so I could use the phone with no problems. Everything went OK except that the mobile connection now doesn't work. For convenience I will bullet point what I have done to this day in order to fix this:
I tried to repair the phone via PCC but it says it cannot find any software for my phone (Also it shows the phone as a X10 for some reason)
I tried to use SEUS but it crashed on start for no reason (My current pc is Windows 8 x64)
I reseted the partition in my SD card erasing the ext4 part
Got around and flashed a stock kernel I found with some ROM that could use it but that still didn't work
I tried my sim card over other cellphone and 3G worked
Of course I configured my APN accordingly and Mobile data is enabled
Also I ran a
Code:
logcat -b radio
and it showed a Wrong Network Type:0
Any hints? Every bit of information might help to solve this mystery.
Thanks!

Full wipe the rom or reinstall if you can, & i got to say mobile data problems is not related to kernel (I'm taking about nAa & alf kernels,they're the most bugless kernel for x8)
Do not repair with seus or pcc, they'll lock your bootloader again
& remember to reduce paragraphs in the next thread so others will answer you

Hello guys im new here and i tried lot of things to repair my wfi problem.
So its my mom phone and one day she called me about selfrestart phone in night and there was image of bootloader and startup failed.
So after classic factory reset and etc my wifi still not working. The problem is i cant connect to any wifi. I can scan it but wont connect just say disabled or saved but not connection.
After this i tried flash stockroom succesfully after 2 days of hard work So i flash stock room but the problem is still there so im not sure what can i do anymore. If i can try flash some newer rom or custom rom or its just hardware failure? has anyone have problem like this? All others things work normal like data connections etc. Sorry for my english
1. update so i flashed another lineage room just in case and still not working.
2. i notice in system information that wifi mac adress is 0d:00:00:00:00:00 so can be hardware failure probably.
3. Hotspot wifi is working so i can connect from another mobile to the broken wifi mobile
