[Q] GingerDX v022 wifi problem...not only eduroam or WPA/WPA2 - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have problem with my X8. I found a post about eduroam network fix and i install it. It was because i couldn't connect to my school's wifi. I copied a new wpa_supplicant file into system/bin, but the problem remains. At home i have my wifi secured with only WEP, but after I copied that file i cant connect to my home network. If I want to connect...my phone cant receive an IP from router and if I want to connect to another network i cant....Can somebody help me? I tried to reinstall GingerDX but it was the same...please do not tell me to install v023b cause i tried it once, but i stuck in SE logo...

did you initiate a full wipe ?

As a short run-down ...
If you copied wpa_supplicant to /system/bin manually you may have the problem that the permissions of the file are simply wrong ... would perfectly align with the problem you describe that your phone is unable to connect to WiFi and point out that you should keep your fingers far away from tinkering around with system binaries.
Re-Flash your ROM or update to v023b, flash the correct Stock Kernel or Alfs AddOn, Full Wipe.
Know what you're doing before playing around (TM)

I set the permissions correctly...i installed v022 again (without full-wipe) but nothing happened...when i tried to install v023b i got stuck in SE logo and i had to flash original 2.1 eclair with PCC. I dont know why...maybe is was because i tried to update CWM which was included by doixanh probably...

[Q] Unstable WiFi

Hi guys, I have a very unstable WiFi with GingerDX and FroyoBread, I tried full wipe, but it didn't help me..
It's connected an signal is more then 70%, but market says, there is no connection and browser can't load page...
On stock ROM all works fine. Can anyone tell me, what's wrong? THX!
check ur internet wifi modem..i'm using GingerDX V008..and there is no wifi problem..
I wrote, all works fine with stock rom... do you understand it?
Problem is only with custom roms.
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
True Man...same problem with me...though wifi works fine on Hackdroid Roms ..thts why i prefer hackdroid,speed is fast as well..
i have the same problem, he disconnect every 2 minutes. (ginger xd V008)

I had the same problem on GDX v009 ... WLAN disconnects and reconnects every 2-3 minutes.
Following the suggestion from Dexter_prog to replace the files in /system/etc/wifi with the files out the ZIP file attached to this post resolved the problem over time.
To repeat Dexter_prog's instructions:
Copy the 3 main files in the wifi folder:
- twilan
- tiwlan_firmware
- wpa_suplicant
To summarize, what I did was:
1) backup those 3 files
2) delete those 3 files
3) copy the same 3 files from the attached zip
4) reboot
The problem wasn't gone right after the reboot in my case, but the longer the phone was running the more and more stable the wifi connection became.
I guess I should add that I never had that problem before. WiFi worked absolutely fine and rock stable on Stock Elcair and Froyobread - it only started to give me troubles at the upgrade to GingerDX.
I'd say it could be worth giving it a try.
I had the same problem, I used hackdroid floyo 0.30 and all worked well... But only for a one day. Now I tried your tut, and... It works! Thank you guy, you solved my problem...
Crap i thought this can fix my problem. when connecting i get stuck @ obtaining ip address. then x88 reboots.

[Q] GingerDX wifi problem

I did some reading and tried the wifi patch (libs from MiniCM) but the script gives an error on my phone.
What can i do?
Edit: I installed v12 again, but no luck...

Hello,
Some extra information:
I installed Kuyadroid over GingerDX, but no luck.
Then i did a full wipe, and reinstalled Kuyadroid... And Wifi is back.

Try hotfix of DX v_0.14 and wifi should work fine. Remember to use ClockWorldMode to update.
v14 wifi hotfix dosnt work cause i did it and should i install the gingerDX V14 via CWM cause i installed it via xrecovery and wifi hotfix via CWM

I solved my wifi problem by doing a full wipe...

Wifi Custom kernel problem

Update: Solved (just reflashed the ROM)
I have a problem here with my X8. So, after I have successfully unlocked my bootloader without the network problem, now I have a wifi problem. So what I did was: rooted my phone, unlocked the bootloader, applied a nAa kernel (before that I tried the MiniCM9 with the ICS nAa kernel), then I applied the custom ROM called JoyOS... In both cases(ICS-MiniCM9, and JoyOS) I have the problem when connecting to a wifi router, I cant use it. I know it sounds strange but I can connect normally with the wifi but still I cant use it... I mean when I try to open google.. or use anything with wifi (like syncing) I just cant... it says unable to connect to the internet. I am thinking its the unlocked bootloader problem.. but I am not sure. Can someone help with this please.
Maybe just reset router...
lol???
Thats not a problem with the router... I am using the internet via that router writing this reply.. please dont be stupid and post something smart.
EDIT:
Still waiting for a reply.. I really need a solution for this..
Have u tried connecting to a totally different router cuz that may be ur problem, I have a friend who had a similar problem with an android tablet that didn't like his router so give it a go it won't hurt to try
P.S did it connect when it was stock?
Sent through my X8
it did connect when it was on stock ... and I am not sure but I think it actually was working a little while I was using the MiniCM9 ICS ROM and on the same rom actually the problem has occured. Now I am not sure if it stopped working because of the unlocking and applying a new kernel or something else happened in the mean time.. Could it be I disabled wifi somehow? somewhere?
What rom are you using? i only say that because when i swapped from minicm9 to semc debrand engine both wifi and 3g stopped working but when i switched back to minicm9 it worked perfectly again.
Try a Full wipe + wipe dalvic cache (or whatever it is) and install the rom again, hope this helps
Now trying to flash miniCm9 again.. we ll see now.. will update in a few minutes
Update:
Great, , just flashed the ROM again and now working well. Thanks anyway for helping.
No problem glad i could help
