I just finally got sick of waiting for an official Froyo(Bell isn't about to give me an upgrade anyhow.) So I went to a froyo rom that was based on one of the stock roms. But I figured since I'm rooted anyhow why not play around, and grabbed cyanogen 6.1 and installed it. Then I end up with the issue of its not connecting to my wifi, I have no issues on the stock 2.2 roms. One thing I have noticed is the cyanogen shows the network as wep, but it's actually wpa encrypted. I flashed into it from the stock without clearing it first and it worked until I shut off and came back to it. Any ideas on what might be the issue. I'm fairly new but I did look and couldn't find anything to fix this.
I assume you flashed 6.1 stable version? I have no issue whatsoever on my device (and I also used official froyo previously). Did you wipe all before flashing 6.1?
He said he "flashed without cleaning"...so I presume no wipe. This could be the problem, a wipe is strongly adviced if going to CM from a non CM ROM. Also check the number of WiFi channels set by default in advanced settings of wifi. It is set for 11 and if the router is set to 13 or 14 it could not work

I had the same problem when i was installing CM6.1. (with wipe)
The phone could just se a wep version of my network and not the wpa that i have. But after i turned on and off the wifi a couple of times i suddenly saw the wpa version of my network and after i connected to that the problem was solved. I also did click "forget network" on the wep version.
Hope this will help you

Trying this now but no go. Sometimes will flash it as wpa and then jump back to wep. This is after a full wipe. What I was trying to say was once I flashed in without wiping and it worked for a bit but jumped right back to not working, after the phone going to sleep.
Bump.
Any insight into this issue? Still only reading my network as wep.
Try installing "WiFi Advanced Configration Editor" from the market. You should be able to change to WPA manually with it.
Did you try to reset your wifi router?sometimes the issues came up from wifi router, not the phone itself.
Mine is fine. I share my broadband wifi to my phone using connectify.
The only problem remains is wifi disconnect frequently, but I heard that it's due to a new kernel which I use (.32 kernel)
hope it helps
Ya reset the router a few times, and it still came up like that. I did install the wifi advance config software mentioned it seemed to fix it. I didn't actually set anything up on it and it seems to have fixed it. Thanks.
CM 6.1 messed up my wifi. Wiped everything, but it suddenly doesn't find my networks.
Wiped again and restored nandroid backup of working rom but STILL the same issue now!! Can I flash the wifi drivers again somehow?
Hi.
My first post. So I'm completely new to all of this. I recently discovered this forum, and found out you could root the Incredible S. This was no problem. I am also able to flash different ROM's to my phone (always doing full wipe first).
My problem is that many of the ROM's will not even find my wifi network. They will show my neighbours SSID's when scanning. But not mine.
The last one i tried was:
[1st Nov] Nik_IncredibleS_TriNiTy_SensationXL V 1.0 By Nikhil007
Still can't find my wifi-network.
I am now using
[ROM][Sept26][INC S]Virtuous Unity 2.39.0 Sense 3.0 Based on Pyramid
This is the only ROM i have tried where it can connect to my own network.
Am I doing something wrong?

Change security settings on router. Try different encryption modes. (WPA/WEP1-2) You might need to set up a new wifi password.
Happens on stock rom as well.

Thank you for your answer.
This did not happen with my stock ROM, and it does not happen with the Virtous Unity ROM.
Is there no workaround? Shouldn't the ROM's be able to connect to any WiFi-network?
I can, of course change the security settings at home, but I don't think it will be appreciated if I do this at work.
FranKeRS
Sorry, I was wrong, didn't have this problem on stock Inc S, had it on my hd2 when running android roms on it. Quite annoying, but what I experienced, the higher security encr. I used it was more likely that the device saw the router.
Don't know about workarounds.
Things like this and "small" glitches made me stay on the stock rom, don't even have my Inc S rooted.
Waiting on sense 3 ota...

Seems like changing security to WPA only, and cipher type to AES on my router did the trick.
I hope this gets resolved in future ROM's.
EDIT: And today after a phone-restart it will not find my network again..

i have the same problem like you hav niks rom 1,5 and flash the recomended radio no luck so far have to go back to my original rom so can somone explain or fix this we shold be the happiest people in the world sorry for bad english.

I am experiencing the same issue with Virtuous 2.39 Unity

Thinking about moving to stock Sense 3.0 ROM
User "scoobysnacks" is right, once again. The problem is caused by some custom Roms not having the Wifi Regulatory Domain set properly. There are a few options to go around this and change the regulatory domain into 14 channels.
1st option is to login to your WiFi router and manually over-ride the channel.
To do this, just login into your Wifi modem/router (http://192.168.0.1/ in my case) and go to the Wireless Settings or Wireless Advanced Settings and browse through the available options until you find Channel: Auto and change it to 1-11. It is best to choose a channel that is vacant in your area.
2nd option (probably the best option)
1. Use Root Explorer or Root Browser to navigate to "build.prop" file (usually in system folder)
2. Change the file type from read-only to Read/Write, if it prompts about it
3. Then change "ro.product.locale.region=US" to "ro.product.locale.region=EU"
4. Save the changes and make the file read-only again.
5. Reboot and the regulatory domain should be changed
3rd option (not really a workaround... )
Install Cyanogen 7.1 Rom and you'll have the option to change the regulatory domain from the Advanced Wifi Settings - Wireless settigs -> Advanced -> Regulatory Domain -> 14

Hello,
I triyed your recomendation, specially the second option, but on my build.prop file doesnt existe the ro.product.locale.region=US line, anything wrong if I added manually?? What did you think?
Thanks
You have 2 Options:
1. If your phone is on S-ON then you are supposed to flash htc stock kernel
2. If you are on S-OFF then try re-installing your rom with all other thing like wipe,etc...
3. If your problem with s-off wasn't solved, then try flashing Redux 0.8 kernel.(only if you are using sense Roms)
4. If you are on non-sense roms, try finding and flashing a good kernel for your rom.:good:

I might be wrong, but flashing a new radio is only going to affect 3g/ data signal strength etc. , not wifi ... isn't wifi is within the kernal? The BCM4329.ko file in the system/lib/modules folder?
I'm noobish to this aswell, and the reason i question this, is that when I was fooling around trying to get an OC/UV kernal to work on gingerbread, i kept getting wifi error when changing kernals...

I have a similar issue.. but only when I use a Stock Rom..
When I use a CyanogenMod based rom I connect normally.
Any suggestion if there's an option, in build.prop maybe, so I can fix this in a stock rom?
hi, you use a rom from XDA? is it happen after flashing a new rom, first boot, no mobile internet? -> how about some informations about runnign system etc. pp. was it working before with same rom? and so on....
if no internet after first boot: turn on wifi, go Settings/Xperia/Internet Settings , and try download the settings with wifi. how that?
second thought: your provider's fault?
Xperia V is not officially supported by my carrier, but I can use mobile data on cyanogenmod.
I tried to add APN for my carrier, but they don't appear, using APN Manager I could see and try to apply them, only to get an error.
I was willing to go back to stock rom 'cause I wanted to use sony's camera.. but mobile data is essential.. guess I'll to stick with cyanogenmod..
i have added my provider (three uk) network apn manually and it worked.. yesterday.. Now still I cant connect. No reaction at all. I've downloaded settings via wifi and didnt help. Im running official rom 9.1.A.1.141. It is not a provider fault - I used o2 before and it was the same problem. Sometimes restart helps. but not now,
edit. now restart helped.. i dont get it.. This is very enoying
Anyone have any ideia how to fix this issue?
In CM all APN are shown correctly, in any stock based rom I can't add any entries, or it's not shown.
Hi. Not sure if this is the right place to post but as I am using this ROM, Cannot post in the corresponding ROM forum - not enough privileges.
I would like ask for your help. I have an LG-P880 running Android 4.4.2 with LiquidSmooth LS-KK-v3.0-2014-02-12, Kernel: 3.1.10-CM+(2014-102-12). After flashing the ROM, the phone does not connect to WiFi with WEP. I choose the WiFi connection, enter the key (yes, the key is correct, tried few times), the phone tries to connect but then only says "Saved, secured with WEP" and never "connected". I searched through many forums for a solution. Seems like many models have a similar problem but couldn't find the descriptio for my phone or for this ROM. Most of solutions are as follows:
Wrong key (not my case)
Nulled IMEI - insert new value (not my case)
Change device name in WiFi direct - for HTC One (not my case)
Set correct time, date and zone as it may affect WiFi (all correct)
Some Kernel drivers don't support old WEP protection (could be the case)
I installed WiFi Fixer app. In debug mode it says the following:
Connecting to:"<provider name>"
Supplicant State: ASSOCIATING
Supplicant State: DISCONNECTED
and it goes on like this over and over.
Please note that it connects fine to other networks protected with WPA and WPA2. Some advise to reprogram the router - impossible in my case as it is the company's office and I don't have access to the router/server.
Yes, I wiped cache, dalvik and did factory reset couple of times - the problem remains.
I really like this ROM and don't want to move another, so please advise.
Has anyone experienced this on 4X? Any advice? If it's the problem with the kernel, which drivers would you recommend me to upgrade to?
Its already been stated that support for wep has been dropped for a while due to security. Only other way is to change the security type or go with an old version of android
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
or grab werewolf kernel, it (still) has support for wep afaik, just make sure to find anykernel installer
Thank you, guys. I was almost sure it's because of kernel. guess I just needed some one to confirm it to me.

Strange issue after installing new rom & kernel. "Internet may not be available"
After a clean rom install, i started it up, connected to Wifi and got this: "Internet may not be available" after it connects to my wifi.
I'm currently using Possideon Kernel 1.0 & running the project L s8 v7 rom.
I'm using a N920T Note 5.
Anyone know a flash or kernel that will fix this? Also my cell internet is HORRIBLE now, barely getting through.
UPDATE!
I did some checking and found out it's got something to do with the DHCP and how the IP addresses are set. I went in, manually, and that temporarily fixed the problem but i want to find out a permanent fix.
There has GOT to be a permanent fix but i don't know if it's the kernel or the modem...
