I currently have 2.3.6 GB on my phone(I9000) with this I can use hidden Wifi networks! But ICS and JB roms I cannot use hidden Wifi networks, they always stop at authentication and give authentication error, normal Wifi networks work perfectly. My friend has ICS on his Galaxy S III and he can use this hidden Wifi. What can be the problem?

I'm sorry for you, but at home and at work i have hidden SSID's and never got a problem with that. Neither with CM9 nor with CM10. But other networks (it appears nearly random for me) never worked for me for ICS and JB. I think it's maybe driver related and will never be fixed
If you have access to that network, try changing security settings and try to connect your phone again.
Cheers

I just got a Tmobile galaxy tab refurb, and when ever the tab is in sleep mode for over an hour and I turn it on the tab won't connect to my router. I wold have to turn off my wifi and then turn it back on for it to connect. Any works around this?
Go ti settings and tell ur tab to never turn off wifi wile sleeping

Are you having reconnection issues with other WiFi devices on your network? Because this is usually a Wifi/router problem. I don't think it has anything to do with your galaxy tab.

I have the same problem and extremely unstable wifi performance and it looses connection even with very good reception. I havea netgear 3300 router with both 2.4 and 5 kHz networks and the only device that works badly is the tab. I have 20+ other devices with no problems at all of which 4 are other android devices.
I live in an area with 15-20 other wifi networks and perhaps it would help to disable all other networks but the settings for wifi is very basic and not many options exist. I have a DBT device with stock JMG FW.
JMG/JMF problem. I had none of this issue while my firmware was JK5. Now it sucks and still waiting for Gingerbread to come to Kies.
SAME PROBLEM WE HOPE IN GINGERBREAD
I:ve tried both CNA and AOKP ports. everything seems fine but for wifi tethering it sucks. I mean when I turn portable hotspot on it says turning on wifi. it gets stuck on that but when I press back or home and go back it's checked. the thing is there's no status bar icon or notif saying that wifi tethering is active or what. my other phone can detect the hotspot. but can't really connect. one more thing wifi is ok I can see networks and connect to them normally. any ideas? is it a known issue? on cm9 its fine though
edit: tried barnacle wifi. I get an error sayinng cant establish ssid for wlan0

Hi all. i have a problem with my note. on some instances if i try downloading large files(for games or navigon maps, or just browsing on some sites, etc) after 10 15 seconds the wifi adapter shuts down/resets and the connection is lost. the adapter restarts and connects to the wifi in 2 3 seconds but is very frustrating to try downloading something many times before succeeding. anyone else has this problem? i searched the forum but didnt find anyone else with this problem. any ideas as to what is causing this problem?

Re: note wifi disconnecting
Hmm. Try changing the router wifi settings to transmit only b/g and retest.
Had the same issue, please tell us what version and kernel rom you are using?
->I had only when using CM, on stock GB and the XXLSC roms, I did not encounter this problem (also with cm 10.1 I seem to have a stable connection again)
**I do want to note, that it can't be possible to have a worse connection when on CM vs TW, but I have experienced it this way. So I can onlyh draw my conclusions from that...(I don't have any developer knowledge whatsoever)
Re: note wifi disconnecting
I would start by un plugging the router and plug it back in.

Re: note wifi disconnecting
baseband version: N7000 xxlpt. kernel version N7000 xxlq3. android 4.0.3. This issue was present from day one. but never tried downloading large files from another router and my htc legend never had this issue with the router. will try to see if the router is the problem today and get back to you. tx to all in advance

Try this:
Dial *#0011#*
Press the menu button on service mode screen
Select wifi
Turn "wifi power save mode" off
It seems like this is only working on samsung roms. I'm on CM10.1 and I have to dial *#*#0011#*#* to access the service mode.
Also there is no wifi entry in the menu.
Re: note wifi disconnecting
just downloaded a 700 +mb file with no problem. i set the router to b and g only. seems it was the frickin router. tx a lot to all 4 ur support.

CHanging to b/g works
Hi,
I have router DIR 855 and had the same issue with my note. Wifi kept disconnecting whereas all the other devices at home stay connected. So it was clear that Note was the one that had the issue. Changing the 2,4ghz to b/g setting helped but I would like a stable connection on my 5 ghz band and that one keeps disconnecting. Any idea how to fix that? I am using NAS and the speed is much better when using 5ghz instead of the old crappy 2,4ghz.

For me too 5GHz is not stable on note... Why not use the router on Auto and then use the settings on NAS to use only 5GHz
Please explain

Hi,
Can you please elaborate on how to do that?
My router has two different bands and it cannot switch between the two. What do you mean by NAS setting?
Depends if your router can run simultaneous dual band.
I have a LG Thrill 4G running stock FROYO/v10e 2.2.2 that will not connect to wifi. I cant even set up my google account on the phone. When I try it doesnt search for a wifi network, I have to enter it manually, and then get an error saying cannot establish a connection with the server. In the wifi settings it is stuck on turning wifi on. I cannot get into wps push button request or add a wifi network. I have looked through all applications and cant even find one that has anything to do with the wifi. Is it possible that the wifi file has been deleted from FROYO?? Can it be reinstalled, or can I reset the FROYO somehow? I am currently trying to do the urgrade to GIngerbread and then ICS, but of course I am having issues with it. If I get it to go through will it fix the wifi issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't been been able to successfully install the update as of yet. It keeps erroring out on me on the second step, before it actually even gets to the update. I have uninstalled and re-installed the lg mobile tool, and the drivers multiple times, and keep getting the same result. I got frustrated and haven't tried again in two weeks. Any tips on getting the update to work would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
use a diff usb cable, change to a diff desktop using usb ports on the back of the tower.
I had similar issue before, only to discover that I had a flaky cable.

Last week I flashed AOKP 4.3 and 4.4 rom. After that my phone can't see wpa2 networks and wifi N.
I've tried to flash stock ftf but it didn't solve. I relocked my bootloader and repaired my phone with seus. I'm on stock actually and the problem it's still there. I can't see my home network (wifi N only, wpa2). Other networks with wpa and wifi g works good. Is my phone broken? I think that is just a settings/driver problem but no one seems able to help me. I've opened a bug report on AOKP and FXP CM11 topic but no one reply to it. Other users are experiencing the same issue so I can't think that it's just my fault. Please, help!

It sounds so weird. Maybe flash to 4.4 again to solve it? Because people with the official ftf got less chance to help on it also.

Want to ask, have you manually set the region setting in your router? also what wireless band does you use inside router?
Cause if you have manually set the region to match your homeland, than after you flash other rom, firmware that is not match to your setting then you cannot see your wifi..
And don't forget, the wireless band best set to 1-11, as 12-14 have many problem for phone to detect..

Baseband does not interfere with wifi connection, as baseband is use mainly for sim connection to your mobile provider..in phone wifi setting, does you change the wifi frequency band? i strongly recommend use AUTO for best result..Also, try change the WiFi region code to Europe see can or not..
If all i mention cannot, then i suggest you reset your router, then just set your ISP so you get internet, and for WIFI setting, don't change region, and set your security key either WPA/WPA2 with AES/TKIP set to AUTO, use band 1-11 and wifi transfer width 20mhz/40mhz set to AUTO, if your router support option for wifi frequency 2.4/5 Ghz option, then set to AUTO also..if cannot, then you choose either 2.4ghz ( best so far with most compatibility ) or 5.0ghz ( some phone cannot detect )..
Hope it help..
It's a CM11 bug
Ok it's a cm bug. But why flashing stock doesn't solve? Does cm broke permanently functions in our device?
