[Q] i9000 can't 'see' my wifi network - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just upgraded to Ressurection Remix Rom 4.4.2 (from 4.2.3 CyanAOSP), and everything is fine except the wifi. my i9000 finds some networks, but not mine! My network IS visible, so it's not that. But, given it finds other networks, i'm completely lost...All my other devices can see my network.
Has anyone else come across this issue?
PS: I don't think this is related to RR rom as i had the same issue with some other roms last time i tried to upgrade. Reverting back to CyanAOSP 4.2.3 resolves the issue.

Wifi on Cyanogen issues

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?

Possible Wifi hardware issue?

Hi. I started having a problem with my wifi recently after updating to 4.3. Wifi turn itself on and off and sometime stay "turning on" state or "error". I have tried to return to stock ROM 4.2.2 (and Radio) and different version (4.2.2 and 4.3), but wifi issue remain the same.
Anyone has experienced this? Any sugguestion for the fix?
It looks a lot like a HARDWARE issue after i tried several ROMs and Ratios.
Thanks
Have you the wifi_ctrl_wake and wifi_rx_wake processes that never stop running? Because i have the same problem with the arhd 30, i was thinking about downgrade to a 4.2.2 ROM...

WiFi problems on 4.4 stock i537

Hi everyone) I'am on stock official 4.4 update and I have problem with wifi (at&t i537 Active):
the phone finds some networks, but doesn't "see" others (including my home network, - and not only my, my friend's as well).
Tried to downgade to 4.3, but I couldn't even TURN it ON, because it just wouldn't switch to "ON".
Is there any way to fix the problem? (I guess it's a known samsung-software bug on i537)

[I9295] Cellular not working

Hey guys,
in the beginning, sorry for my bad english (native german). I have a problem with my I9295 aka S4 Active. Since the update to 4.4.2, my phone gets thrown out of the network. Wlan and Bluetooth is fine. Now I flashed the official Samsung DOB4 firmware. Yes, I've downloaded the file multiple times, and the md5 sum was always right. After I flashed it, I was very happy because my cellular network was working again, I could make some calls, etc. But after 20 minutes, it started again. No network. Well, my IMEI was null, and to fix it I had to root. After rooting, my IMEI is there again (yes, the right one) and everything worked fine and was still working, up to yesterday. IMEI still there, baseband too, everything seems fine, but I can't get network. I have to reboot multiple times to get it working again, after that it's working maximum a day, after that, no network again . Atm, i've flashed CM12, but the error is still occuring. I'm very desperate, I hope somebody can help me.
I have a quite similar problem:
My I9295 loses service randomly. Happens quite often.
When I try to go to Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks I am told "No SIM ..."
SIM is in and had been active. Phono tells me I have network reception.
After reboot it works for an hour or 20 minutes or whatever it wants to.
Sometimes it reconnects after a while, sometimes not.
When I leave it on during night netx morning reconnect works only via reboot.
SIM reader had been replaced.
Problem persists with genuine 5.0.1, with this one: [ROM][Official Nightly CM12/Unofficial CM12.1][5.0/5.1.1] builds for I9295
and WizCyan ROM.
Any suggestions?
BTW I use a TWRP recovery

Enjoy
Thanks for the hint.
Not sure if I get this. The problem was also there with the genuine Samsung ROM (lolipop)while the thread talks aout losing modem function after flashing custom ROM.
About previous I am not sure as I bought it used with 4.2.2 on it.
I updated to 4.4 and then 5 OTA, all genuine.
Only because the mobile kept on losing network I switched to custom ROM, but the problem persists.
At the moment I use the Pac-Man ROM 5.1.1 where it seems to be more stable.
Strange!
@augek
The linked thread isn't only about custom roms - you can end up with partly flashed baseband on genuine if you don't power off before download mode and flash using Odin.
Was the replacement job of SIM reader done by a qualified person?
Following your Suggestion i flashed the genuine lollipop with odin. Yes i switched of Prior to flashing.
And Yes the Person Who did the card reader Job is qualified.
Still the Problem persists.
So to me the question is if the Firmware (driver) is the Problem of my sim card. The sim i tried on my s4mini and doesn't cause Problems so far as far as i noticed.
P****es me of somehow.

Weird 5GHz WiFi Issue

Hi. I just got my SM-T710 yesterday and it was on either 5.0.2 or 5.1.1. When I set it up, I was able to connect to my 5GHz SSID no problem. However, as soon as I Odin'd to 6.0.1, my 5GHz network disappeared. It can't see it and won't connect to it even if I add it in manually. I've been trying to fix it all day (even reflashed the 6.0.1 formware but I cant go back to 5.0.2 as it is U1 firmware) but nothing has worked. It is only my 5GHz network that is not showing up. All other 5GHz networks show up and I can connect to my 5GHz mobile hotspot fine. It's simply my own 5GHz network. I've also reset the router and confirmed that the network works on all my other devices. I'm at a loss as to what I can do next. Any pointers?
The tablet started ignoring more 5GHz networks so I tried CM 12.1 and it seems this is a bug with the latest stock update. It works fine on CM 12.1.
I have the same problem after upgrading to 6.0.1 UK ROM. Just found that flashing Canada 6.0.1 ROM solved my problem. Maybe you can try.
