I have a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 Euro which I have been painfully trying to get on to CM7 for the last few days. The problem I have is when I flash back to a stock Froyo (2.2.1) my wifi won't connect to wpa connections. This isn't brilliant for me as my home router is secured with WPA and I do not wish to change it, as the people living in my area are all mostly IT specialists and would take advantage of a wep or unsecured network. This is due to the slow speeds we get in our area.
Does anyone know of a way to flash an older rom on to my phone whilst keeping the ability to connect to wifi properly once it is running CM7?
I am currently running a 2.3.3 rom downloaded from samfirmware.com
Thanks in advance for any help
Why is your WiFi-connection 'broken' with Froyo? My router is also secured with WPA and don't have any problems...

This I cannot figure out, I tried everything from enabling/disabling wifi/GPS/BT and wiping and starting all over again. All of these methods resulted in my phone being unable to connect to my WPA secured wifi, any unsecured connection nearby connects straight away. I seem to get stuck in an obtaining IP address loop, which never resolves.
Have you ever tried another modem?

How do I do that? On 3g its a little difficult to download a different modem as the extras for cyanogenmod won't load properly in the ROM Manager app.

A different modem won't help...wifi is controlled by the kernel, not the modem.

Have you tried connecting to a different AP using wpa?
Also, go into advanced wifi and set up a static IP. That may do the trick.

WiFi has nothing to do with the modem? Ok, didn't know that.

Is this installed via odin after CM7 is installed?

Not Odin. Custom kernels are flashed from recovery as zip files. Very quick and easy.
Tried a few other methods of doing this and every time it gets broken. Are there any other fixes I can use to get wifi to work again? Any files I can modify myself or delete?
Right, managed to convince my other (better?) half to let me try it on her phone as we both got the same phones at the same time. Will post results soon...
Ok, same thing happened with the wifes phone so I decided to dig an old wireless router out of the shed and set it up with WPA security. And the phone then connected. So I'm not entirely happy with the crap that is my BTHomeHub. All in all, I'm now running CM7 RC1 and I'm happy as larry with it
Congratulation!

The other thread was closed due to use of Spanish I think...
I'm now suffering with this issue.. My city always had a good signal but from last days it started...
Happens every 5min ... Any tip?
____
Solved. Rooted (JB, finally!), installed Batakang ROM and *#*#4636#*#* (doesn't work at stock JB).. switched to WCDMA only..
Didn't have any disconnection again!
Re: Restricted access changed
Do you upgrade to JB?
Sent from my MB526 using xda premium
Yep but it worked great a few weeks!
is a problem with the quality of the phone network, to me was the same but only in places where the signal was not good, it is a problem of the radio that comes with JB
if we get root.. is it possible to change radio?
Re: Restricted access changed
I think thats a boot loader thing? But if flashing via recovery can then yes.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Even with the locked bootloader?
Re: Restricted access changed
That I highly doubt
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
I think this is not network fault..
I think that it happens only when the phone gets hot and the 3G is in use.. It won't happen while I'm at wifi
Thanks Dan to root my phone! It is finally working perfectly now
did I miss something, can you all say if it's the phone or network. Have a dual sim Huawei G500 works fine if both slots uses the same network.But once the other network is introduce, problems!!!

Hi, what i did to solve this is installing phone info and with it i can choose the network type. for some reasons when 4g signal isn't good enough it gives that error so i switch to gsm only and i never get that error in my house wich is mainly where it happens.
hope this helps you.

do you use any apps like greenpower or juicedefender. Perhaps wifi control is enabled. Perhaps a different baseband can help. You find some odin-flashable in the wiki
You can't have it for 2 years, cause it is 1,5 years old phone about the problem..try changing settings in router?

Fix for wifi issue with Belkin Routers mainly
It's a problem with the DHCP leasing of the router. Possibly Belkin routers are particular culprits.
- If you change DHCP leasing from 'forever' to '2 days' it fixes the problem and you don't need to use a Static IP.
In other words, for some wierd reason the wifi on 2.3.6 has a problem on some routers with the 'forever' DHCP setting.
I also had the same problem and once changed dhcp lease time it got resolved..
Do this and confirm... It is a bug in 2.3.6 actually... Previous 2.3.x and later version 3xx dont have this issue.
Hope it helps..

In earlier versions of CM9 (I'm not sure if it was changed) scale was simply different - you could have 4 bars on GB, but only 2 on CM9 for same signal strength. It's better to use dedicated app to test such things (WiFi Analyzer for example).
As for final fixes... (off-topic) compass never worked for me on any rom/kernel on ICS or JB (it was fine only on GB). It shows something, but that's definitely not a right direction (moving phone only a bit gives odd results). I wonder if that will ever be fixed.

Hope its clear now...

Hello all, sorry for my english.
I was using asylum and cm10.1 for along time and there great but i miss the TW goodness so i revert back to ultimat 5.0 for now, and i have a problem with wifi stop working all the time, what i mean is that after 30 minuts or so the wifi shows that its still connected but no data is transfering, if i leave my torrent client open then after 30-/+ minuts it stops downloading.
I must say that in aosp roms the issue is not exsiting, and every thing is ok. If i turn off the wifi and turn it back on the issue is solvd until the next time.
Ps. Im on LSA and i flashd the LSO modem and the problem is still there.
Is this a hardware issue or software? What othet test i can do to eliminate the problem?
Thanks

I think the latest version of the ROM you are on should be 5.1.. Try updating since youre on 5.0, maybe that will fix your wifi issue..
Yeah but that another issue becuse if i flash 5.1 the phone stuck at the first screen of "galaxy note" and thats it.
I think the file is maybe curropted, but i cand download another one cuz my wifi is disconnecting all the time.
I think i dont have a choice and ill have to go to aosp agian and download from there.
I am traveling and dont have access to a normal pc.
You think maybe other modems will fix the problems?
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Im not sure but shouldnt you do full wipe before flashing some other ROMs?..
You talking about 5.1? It doesn't matter if I flash over or clean install non of them are working, anyway I'm downloading the new leak now and we will see if the problem is there also.
Thanks.

So I have this problem with my Galaxy S Advance... I am connected to my provider's 3g network and in-apps everything works fine but when I enter the browser I don't manage to get connection to the internet. Has anyone had similar sort of problem or anything?
