Wi Fi problem... - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have a X8 e15a, stock kernel (can't change or it would be hard bricked) and... I can't make the wifi work...
I've tried stock roms, froyo, MC V3, and gingerdx...
I get the same problem, It can detect wifi connections, but when i try to connect...
"scanning... connecting... disconnecting" and loops like that :crying:
Any clue why?
Thanks

Try connecting with a different network.
You might be trying to connect to the same network. Try somewhere else and see if you can connect. Maybe that router isn't properly configured. I had a similar problem a few months ago.
Also , please don't make two different threads about the same issue in two different sections. All questions are to be posted in the Q&A section only. Not in the "General Section"

Sorry, I wasn't really sure where to post it
I've tried that too, it's a general prob, I've tried to connect to OPEN, WEP and WPA, and it's the same...
I wonder if the wifi it's broken, but... then why it can detect the nets?

"Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network."

Hi,
I got a rooted G1 which has been working for a loong time with alot of different roms.. One day when I was browsing the internet it suddenly lost all connection and it hasn't worked since.. When I set it to automatically select a network it says "Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network.". The SIM card works on my Motorola Milestone..
To try to fix this, I've installed the newest SPL and radio and tried the *#*# 4636 #*#* fix..
None of these "fixes" have worked..
I really do hope you can help me..
I think its related to the operator, my G1 for instance while roming gives me this error no matter what i do while im in Norway, works fine everywhere else though(many other countrys/operators), at the same time my Nokia has no issue roming in Norway.

He did NOT have these problems before as stated he was just browsing and it just stopped working. I think this is a hardware problem. Have you tried wiping and installing a different rom?

Yeah I've tried different roms and done alot of wiping.. Im not sure if its a hardware issue as it sometimes (perhaps a sec or two) connects to the network... I only think this has happened when i connected to the wifi.. hope this info helps you to figure out my problem

[Q] X1 - WIFI problem, connected but not working

Hello to you all
I tried to search, no luck. (maybe just missed the solution if any)
I have problems with wifi.
I can connect to wifi network, (ip is set to device, I can see it in router statistic) but none of the programs that connect to internet.
opera, iexplorer, facebook...........qGPS... are not working. like no connection.
I am using Energy.XPERIA.23678.Sense2.5.Cookie.Aug18, and same happens on my other X1 with Energy.XPERIA.21903.Sense2.5.Cookie.May.09
I also tried other roms. on original it was working I flashed other roms and I have this problem. tried too many still the same problem.
I always erase all (tool29 or how its called) before flashing, always hard reset.
my radio is: 1.14.25.55
I tried to connect to different networks, still the same. even on my home network (that I know all configurations) its not working.
thank you for help and your time.
---------------
its definetly not the router issue, tried restart all things. I can manage my router (I can see the device connected in router table), I tried to set wifi on X1 to performance also other way to quality(or how its called). no luck. but its not router issue. I tried it with open router (no security at all- diferent devicess can connect.), also tried to set different wifi standards no luck.
I have the same problem on 2 phones both are X1. tried different roms. still the same. my other HTCkaiser can connect no problem.
It's occurred in my Vaio. Hahaha. I thought it's the router issue,

No I mean, I have the same problem like yours but it occurs in my Vaio not X1. Not so sure why but I think it's router issue, it's not your device's fault. Just opinion.
In standard communication manager set max performance for wi-fi. I don't know where is it on energy rom but must be in windows folder.
(Sory for my english)
same
have the same problem with one of my x1s after I've flashed an energy rom/ It's not the routers fault, the other X1 works fine with it /So, is there any solution for this/ have tried a lots of roms after that, but it didn't solved the problem/ The x1 connects to the routers but can not use any of them / The routers are all unsecured, no key needed to use them.
I had the same issue, my solution was to change the settings by taking firewall off router through your pc and make it a open network till you connect wifi from your phone to the router then once thats done and you have tested the internet then you can switch back on the firewall settings and your good to go.
Yes!!!

Don't mean to interrupt, Change the router performance (Router is the WiFi not the phone X1) different router (WiFi device that shares internet) means different setup.
Out of topic, contrary from mymailx, I have different problem. When my X1 can use the WiFi well, but my tablet and pc can't use the WiFi, it is connected but can't access internet (yellow exclamation at WiFi icon at taskbar). odds. I have restarted ever settings.

[Q] WEP issues

HI,
My phone can't connect to WEP networks.
there is no problem with open or WPA networks.
I tried to delete the config file in the system/wifi folder.
I tried to replace the DHCPCD file as Guardian Bob suggested here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=907772
with no luck!
Any ideas?
Thanks.
btw, it's android 2.2.1.
Kinda thin on the info. Whose ROM are you on? Do you get an error message or does it just not connect? Can you see the WEP network or does it not show up? Might be better off posting to the correct ROM-related sticky in Q&A as this is not a Captivate problem. Mine running A3 connects to WEP networks just fine.
Well, it goes from "Obtaining IP address from..." to "not in range" or " remembered" and then back to "Obtaining IP address from..." in a loop.
I tried two routers, I can see the networks but both of them are giving me the same problem.
My ROM is PILOTX, the problem is that I don't think they have an official forum for this.
I asked several people with the same ROM and they have no problems. I think maybe I installed some app. that screw my WIFI config or something....
If you know a better place to ask this question I will appreciate it.
Thanks.

Never heard of that ROM. Is there a thread on the Captivate forums for that one?
Anyhow... here are a couple of places... http://www.facebook.com/pilotxrom
or here... http://iandroid.co.il/forum/topic12091.html
Seems to be some chatter about that devs roms those places. Honestly have never seen that one before. Good Luck.
Thanks lownox. I know of this places, I post my question there before I came here.
I got no answer there.
You don't know this ROM because its a very small group from Israel
but it's a good and solid ROM.
Did you find a fix for this issue? I have the same problem with the stock 2.2 ROM. My wife has the same phone, same stock 2.2 ROM - but DOES NOT have this issue. So, 2 (same) phones, same ROM, but mine has this issue
The one difference is that my wife's phone does not have a data connection i.e, just work on wife (when available).
Regards
Nick

I've never heard of that ROM, either, which will make it very hard for anyone in here to help you if it is indeed a ROM problem. Like I said, I have never had issues with connecting to various networks and security protocols and I rarely see any posted problems like yours that aren't related to the modem being used on the phone. You might try the modem thread in Dev and see if there's a better one for your area that others can recommend, but be sure it will work with your ROM. Mixing modems with the wrong ROM base can be catastrophic.

It's an i9000 ported ROM with added hebrew locale.

I cannot agree with you on that, it's not as solid as you think. Mainly because when the developer modded it he had the i9000 in mind. And only minor changes were made to make it work on the captivate.
Don't interpret my words as disrespect for the developer. Any contribution to the android community is BLESSED. It's just that he has a lot more israeli i9000 users than captivate ones.
You right, there are lots of I9000 in israel, its the #1 hit after the Iphone. We dont have too many Captivate here. I guess you are from israel...?
Anyway, as much as hate replacing Roms, I think I have no choice to go for the CM...

Wi-Fi dropping constantly

Hi Everyone,
As title says, a few weeks ago I noticed that my wifi keeps dropping no matter what I do.. this being as i surf and not in sleep mode or anything like that.
How did it start?
when it happened this is what i did, went to GB rooted rom, flashed up to JB room paranoid android, all worked fine except i noticed wifi kept dropping, tried another jb rom ,same thing, tried ics kingdroid rom, same thing. So then I decided to go back to original official stuff GB, same thing.. wifi dropping, went to official ICS, still wifi keep dropping.
What I have done to try to fix it:
Tried different roms, networks, all settings in Wifi settings. Googled like 3 days straight, mostly this seems to be a galaxy s3 problem not a galaxy note problem. A few people said they solved it by giving it a static ip which wouldnt work for me as im on like 3 different networks, and by changing sleep settings to make sure it doesnt shut off during sleep mode, which i honeslty have no problem with. Someone solved it by switching rom, nothing i find applies to me..
So what do I do??
I would honestly appriciate any suggestion, this is a great community so I got high hopes Sorry if my question has been answered before but I dont belive so, i posted in noob thread any noone had suggestion so I hope I dont do anything wrong with this post.. cheers :victory:

The operation of Wi-Fi is a core responsibility. Try changing the kernel. Modem is responsible for the connection to GSM. If you change the kernel does not help, you probably have a broken phone.

well i have weak wi fi signal.. Most of the modems don't work for me.. Ddlp4 is the one i use..and no the kernel has nothing to do with wifi signal strength
Check your router and see if WPA Wireless network encryption is set to AES, if it is, change it to TKIP., see if you can connect after.
Usually it's nothing to do with the ROM, modem, kernel, android or even the phone itself, it might be your router setting that needs a change.
Know it was long since I made this thread but I wanted to report result, it was as above poster said. Rouer settings, finally found compatible ones after sooo manny roms, modems and other fixes were attempted.

Wi-Fi not connecting

When turning on Wi-Fi, it's saying connecting and then disconnected, but below that notification says wi-fi available (status Excellent)
Tried all ROMs CM10, Zeus v7, and UltraICS ROM
With all of above ROMs, problem existed.
Waiting for solution..

Yes, I realized that after some time, it is supposed to be in Q&A. Because I posted it in hurry while doing work.
I thought to put a request to moderators to move this to Q&A and I thought no need to do that for this little thing.
I forgot you and your followers at that time, or else I would have requested moderators....

The thing you don't know i.e. you are really big spammers.
Because you don't have solution for problem.
You just want to talk something useless for timepass..:silly:
Instead of creating multiple waste offending posts, try to solve if you can...:good:
i am giving you my first thanks for your very useful post.
thanks for fixing me.
my mind completly changed after your post..
oh my god
you are the best.
if you want solution, you must tell more information
such as, before you have this issue? this happened after what? or when?
this happening only one place or everywhere?
maybe your modem issue? or adsl or whatelse issue?
maybe your device damaged
you should paste a logcat
and tell more information...
agritux said:

Using Zeus v7, last night OK, but today afternoon suddenly WiFi problem srarted
this happening only one place or everywhere?
Everywhere
maybe your modem issue? or adsl or whatelse issue?
WiFi working on CM after flashing 3 times alternating other ROMs
maybe your device damaged
No damage or dropping
you should paste a logcat
and tell more information
I will try to do logcat

It's causing the wi-fi problem.
In 2nd page of v30b ICS user manual, a special indication about wi-fi region wise, maybe that's the culprit for wi-fi problem.
This problem usually happens when you are using a wifi modem with a mac address filtration or something
Try looking in the modem's settings about mac address options

Thanks for reply, but before wi-fi problem I am using it for 2 years with no problem of mac address or anything else, (wi-fi is open without password)
After flashing Zeus, UltraICS, and CM10 alternating with multiple times, get wi-fi problem gone away on CM10 now, maybe if I flash some ROM, problem may arise again.
Now again, no problem with mac address or anything.
try with another device. if it's ok, it will mean that the the issue is on phone side
it's not mac address problem then
