WiFi not working after flashing custom ROM

Hey guys, I just installed nik's new project x rebirth 3.6 because it looked amazing!
So I wiped data
Wiped cache
I flashed the ROM
And then I Rebooted
I went through the setup everything was fine just that the slider for WiFi was greyed out and it says and is stuck on "turning on..."
I waited really long to see what would happen but no success
All I see it error
I kept trying and trying but no luck
I did everything from wiping data and cache
I reinstalled the ROM
And I flashed and ICS kernel I had lying around on my sdcard but yet no success.
BTW I did not flash a kernel when I flashed the ROM
I flashed an ICS kernel after wiping the data and cache many times thinking it would work
Someone please help! Thanks

WiFi should work. It might be a recovery related problem. What recovery are you currently using?

I checked bugs everything is working
And also I'm using clockword mod 6. Something

Use 4EXT or ClockworkMod v5.0.2.0. V6 is only a port and therefore, there can be some bugs. I know that 4EXT and CWM 5.0.2.0 work. 4EXT is kind of like a modified CWM with extra features here and there. Its also officially supported.

I believe it is kernel related..

Kangaroo Kernel's WiFi works. That is a fact. If it doesn't work, then it might be recovery related where the recovery might not be flashing some modules correctly and whatnot. I used to have the same problem except with dla5244's port of TWRP. That is why I suggested OP use Official ClockworkMod or 4EXT.

Thank you guys so much
It was actually the the recovery
I flashed Clockwordmod v5 and it worked like a charm
thanks guy!

no
at least none that I'm aware of.
4EXT recovery has an app and when you download the file, it will automatically flash for you.

So I just download the recovery file and flash it through the existing recovery (4ext touch) to change it to cwm?
And will this fix wifi?

No, you need to put the phone in FASTBOOT USB mode and use the command that was posted.
FASTBOOT is different than recovery mode.

No download ROM manager or 4EXT Recovery Updater (the latter may require a bit more searching).
As i've never really used ROM manager (nor would i ever recommend CWM over 4EXT), I can't really help you there.
For 4EXT Recovery Updater, you will need to wait a bit for downloads and stuff (roughly 5 minutes). After click install/update. Choose touch or normal (i use touch). Select version. It will download and then after downloads finish, it will flash the recovery for you.

Guys I am well aware of Rom manager and 4ext app control ;D
I just want to change my recovery to cwm or something else than 4ext rc9 because hopefully that will fix my wifi (turning on) error
And I am asking if there is a way easier than the command prompt way

You could try to reflash the zip but i don't think it will make a difference have you looked thru flexs thread to see if others are having the same problem?

This is like a three part question. But first never flash any ROM without backing up all your installed apps data. Unless you don't care about data loss. So basically the ota is a new ROM. Yes it will erase your data. However it won't touch the data on your sdcard. Only the ROM data. Such partitions of /data, /system, & /cache. You would need to reflash gapps as a
cm ota wont have gapps preinstalled. Also you would need to make sure you have the latest recovery. Some 4.4 ROMs don't flash properly without the correct recovery.

That's the nature of updating. And if there wasn't gapps avail then it would mean it came out five minutes ago and just wait a hour or two and folks will create some. I take it your new to this. So lots of reading helps.

i downloaded from here

I wouldn't use any of the unofficial CM 11 builds if you need to use GPS. It was all over the place so I went back to 10.2 official. There isn't much to be excited about in 4.4 anyway. I didn't notice much of a difference.

[Q] About TWRP version for Desire C

I want to install the TWRP recovery, but i don't know which version is stable.
Now the ultimate version is 2.6.3.0. It's this version stable?

For me, 2.4.2.0 is the most stable. The newer versions reboot randomly. You can see in the twrp thread. The one that says 'stable'

I'm having problems using safestrap (lastest) to install any 4.4 rom on the droid 4. I do it, like I've done any other rom, and the phone vibrates and then it restarts, I'll try to post a video of my completely process, but is there something I'm missing when it comes to safestrap and 4.4?
