I searched all over the internet and was unable to find an answer or solution.
I Installed RegawMOD's latest rom.
Wifi was working just fine, The last time i remember that it was working was before used the toolbox and before installing 2 or 3 games. I think that something messed with my wifi driver because when i try to turn it on it says "unable to start wifi", then when i try to turn on airplane mode it says "unable to turn off wifi" When i try to run the Wireless Tether it says that the tethering started with errors that i should check the log. The log says the following from the bottom going up:
Tethering now running DONE
Enabling access control DONE
Enabling IP Forwarding DONE
Enabling NAT rules DONE
Activating wifi Interface FAILED
Configuring WIfi Interface FAILED
loading wlan.ko module FAILED
Does anybody have any useful information that may pertain to my situation?
Everything else is working perfectly. this is the only thing that has ceased to work.
This belongs in Q&A, not Dev.
Thread moved to Q&A.
This is a kernal issue go with darchDroid 2.7, it will fix that problem
did you flash a different kernel? What version of tether?
if you really feel it's the driver, pull the wlan.ko from the original zip and push it into place to overwrite.
I just encountered the same problem as the OP on my HTC Hero CDMA. I rooted my phone with RegawMOD3.0 yesterday and within a few hours my Wifi stopped working. I'm getting "unable to start wifi" and "unable to stop wifi" in airplane mode. The only other thing I did was get the Adblocker app, which i thought may have cause an issue so I did a factory reset on my phone and still no dice. From what I've read it's either the kernel or wifi driver and I'm unsure what one to try and fix first. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Kernel version:
2.6.29-ba77cf03

Firmeware version:
2.1-update1
Build number:
2.51.591.4 CL343325 release-keys
Well, whatever the issue was it was solved when I put cynogen 7.2 Nightly in. My Wifi is working perfectly now.
Yeah. I'm impressed they're still making nightlies for this phone.
[Q]my N1 have a wifi problem.("E/wifiservice( 97) failed to load wi-fi driver.")
I used Cyanognmod7 on N1 and I have a Wi-Fi problem.
Every time I tried to turn on Wi-Fi, it makes only an error .
so, I use logcat to diagnose error, but, I'm not sure what makes an error.(I thought kernel makes the error. but, flash kernel doesn't work.)
p.s:
logcat's message is "E/wifiservice( 97) failed to load wi-fi driver."
now I'm using stock rom-GRI40.
Hey guys,
I am using the wireless tether for root users app. It is working fine but I am not able to set a password for it. It says in the log WEP encryption failed. Anyone knows how to fix it ? Help pls
Phone specs:

Safestrap: Yes, latest KK version
Root: Yes
Sim: T-Mobile
Model: SM-N900a
Issue: When I try to turn on wifi hotspot / tethering I get the following message: "Mobile hotspot is not available or invalid sim"
I searched online and came across this thread, with the following suggestion: Freeze "tethering provision" in system apps
I did that in Titanium Root, but when I tried to turn on the hotspot, I get "Unfortunately Settings is not Responding"
Are there any other suggestions known to enable this Wifi Tethering / Hotspot?
Thank you!

has USB Tethering stopped working for anyone else too after 4.4 and root. ( i flashed the 4.4 file rather than doing the OTA as it was taken offline). When i click on USB Tethering, it shows error "Unfortunately, Settings have stopped." Any alternative app, or any workaround?
