[Q] wifi problem, need help - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi..
i am having this weird problem with my wifi, i can connect to some routers without any problem but i can't connect to other ones, for example when i use virtual router to share internet from a laptop the phone is connected with internet access for a second or two then it stays connected with no internet access.
i tried to use manual IPs, i tried lots of wifi fixing apps, i tried to wipe data and cache, i tried to use the code *#*#526#*#*, i tried to flash many roms and kernels (miracle v4, stocklight v8, cyanogenmod 10.1 (jelly bean 4.2.1), windows 8 custom rom, official gingerbread 2.3.5... etc) none of them could solve this problem.
by the way: i flashed stuff that i think may have some thing to do with this problem, the files i flashed by cwm ("wifi_fix" i found for cyanogenmod 10, "toggle_safe_mod" or something like that, "adrenaline engine_4_4", "adrenaline engine_cm_4_4, "the_modified_file")
i also installed chainfire 3d, but after a while it stopped working telling me that my phone is not rooted while it is rooted, i thought these problems are related..
so i hope i gave enough information so that someone would know what's wrong with my wifi and how to fix it

MIUI WiFi problem in my Milestone

I have problem on my Milestone with MIUI WiFi.
Every other ROM works just fine (connects immediately thorough WiFi with the internet). Unfortunately every version of MIUI don't
I tried 1.14, 1.21 v2, 1.21v2, even 1.26 chinese. All those versions doesn't want to connect via WiFi.
I've done 3x wipe before and after instaling MIUI.
I've installed MIUI from several ROMS, official + vulnerable, 2.2.1. GOT, 2.1
and always with the same result. WiFi won't connect.
There's short thread about it on xda involving different mobile and using clockworkmod recovery + rom manager, but it's not confirmed and it used to not work on Milestone. Could cause damage, so i droped tryin in that way.
Anyone got any idea why WiFi doesn't want to work in MIUI on my Milestone?
Is there any app tool to discover the cause of lack WiFi connection? Maybe i can run it on my MIUI and show to some dev who will now what certain logs mean ?

Sad you never got an answer to this one - right now I have the very same problem. Happened after the last Miui update.
I have nothing but hope it will get better with the next one.
I have the same problem. On newest version of MIUI (1.5.13), and the 1.5.6 was the same. On 1.4.29 everything was fine. Now wifi is connecting, getting IP, and nothing happens (disconecting)
help pls, anyone can find the fix? where to post this problem ? I dont know chinese
Is your router N? If so, try to change it to work as G only. This is the only way I can make CM7 connect properly with my router, unfortunately, perhaps this helps you guys.
my router is Linksys WRT54GC, wpa (not wpa2) personal, tkip, b/g (not n)
so I dont know if "g only" will help, normally on every rom there is no problem, but from MIUI 1.5.6 problems started. Strange that this happens not to everybody, but to some of us only.
I can confirm that the bug is MIUI related cause I don't have it in CM7 on my HD2.
Sadly I couldn't find any solution yet.
In my case it was caused by luca/froyomod's dsi fix update.zip which I applied on miui, whole radio (wifi + data) wasnt working properly after that. Now I do it manually, or using dsi fix for miui made by eyebee in his thread, and great rom by the way. It feels much snappier, and better multitasking, lots better than pure Miui. Feeyo's, luca's, zeppelinrox's tweaks and other applied by eyebee do the great job on this rom. Great alternative for cm7. Of course kabaldan does also great job. Ok, EOT

I'm expecting exactly the same problem at the moment. Have You solved this issue? I think it is MIUI connected becouse I am on SGS with the same issue.
Same for me on 1.7.29 version.
This version of MIUI caused me alot of trubble.
First i bricked the phone (like an noobie formated system and bootloader) okay some how i got it fixed. Then I installed 1 version older 1.9.30 which caused my phone keept restarting due wifi power on (after restoration with included app) now my phone keeps restarting again (after update) and im really not in mood atm for any thing =/ cant get my apps backedup since phone keeps restarting.
is there any way to disable wifi without booting into android?

[Q] Wifi no longer working after setting up VPN

I'm on CM dal .32 test build 3.1
Today I tried setting up a VPN but failed. The screen became frozen and I decided to reboot my Nook Color. However, after rebooting my wifi is no longer working. It says "connecting" but then "disconnected" Scan option didn't show any network.
Anyone can help me?
CM7.0.3 with Nook Color no longer works
Hi,
I've run into the same issue with my nook color. I'm not sure if this is an issue with the kernel or the physical device. I know that this is not a router issue since I'm able to connect other machines to my router. Also, I no longer see any other hotspots with the Nook.
I tried some suggestions that I've found on other websites, which include
Shutdown Tablet and start again
Re-install Google Apps
Use Fix Permissions in Rom Manager
None of these work. Any suggestions or is this a known bug?

Same here, I was using nightly 115 with Dalingrin's 6/18 OC kernel when the problem started. I've since rebooted multiple times, fixed permission both from CWM and in Rom Manager, flashed nightly 117 without flashing OC kernel, and still haven't solved the problem.
Wifi just stays "Connecting" and then changed to "Disconnected" briefly and go back to "Connecting" again.
Just reflash your ROM or the latest ROM and DON'T mess with any OC kernels.
Does it work? If so, try the OC kernel again. If it fails, let Dal know in his OC kernel thread, and just re-flash your ROM again to return to the stock kernel. Wipe cache/dalvik as necessary, but don't wipe data and you're not going to lose anything.
One suggestion I have is if you're using AES on your router, try changing from WPA2 to WPA or changing WPA AES (or AES+TKIP) to just WPA TKIP and see if that fixes the problem.
There's a long standing issue with some routers regarding AES in Android, and apparently some laptops also had this issue on older kernels.
Flashing to the latest rom without messing with the kernel was the first thing I tried (other than turning wifi on and off multiple times). It didn't work.
What eventually worked was when I wiped data and factory reset it. Some how that fixed the wifi.
The strange thing is I had just recently factory re-setted coming from an old (pre 2.6.32) nightly a couple of days ago, and had not gotten around to installing much, and I did not restore from backup. i.e. the only thing installed when the wifi problem suddenly appeared were the google apps, Aldiko, QuickPic, Rom Manager, MoboPlayer, and a few ADW themes. None of which sound like they should do anything that messes up the wifi.
I doubt it has anything to do with the router, because I tried connecting it to my router (tkip), hotspot from my android phone (unlocked) and hotspot from my iphone (unlocked). My phone just did not see any network around at all, not even the 5-6 different network from other people in the building.
As mentioned, I have factory wiped my NC and all is fine again now, so I'm not too concerned right now, just curious what could have caused the problem.

[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.

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
