WiFi not turning ON - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
So I bought a Nexus 6 which doesn't turn on the WiFi.
If someone share WiFi via Bluetooth it connects perfectly, but it doesn't turn the WiFi on.
Someone know if it may be a software issue and somehow to fix it?

Hello,
What is the Mac address when wifi is enabled and you go to: settings > wifi > gear icon > Mac address ?
Good luck...

Actually the nexus is arriving this afternoon at my house, but as the shipper told me I don't think WiFi is even turning on.

Hey,
Well, speculating is not worth it, since you don't have the device in your hands anyway...

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying the issue doesn't exist...
Do you know the root cause? Except the WiFi doesn't turn on?
I'm saying there is no need to look for solutions if you don't have the device for troubleshooting the issue... :good:

Hello,
Start with the link i posted previously?
Read the last post. It seems like a guy accidentally fixed it. Considering you have the same issue...
Maybe the WiFi chip is fried? Do you remember the Nexus 5 WiFi story?
A Google search shows you're not alone: https://www.google.fr/search?ei=h6E...9.15.969...0i22i30i19k1j0i22i30k1.uAVamCah6eg

Well, after some research I still couldn't figure out which is my new device's problem.
Guess it's efs (I don't even know what does it means) corrupted, which only the official Motorola may repair (wtf).
Also, many users can't connect Bluetooth and WiFi. My problem is with WiFi only. My Bluetooth is okay and I can connect to a WiFi if I use another device, connect it to WiFi and tether via Bluetooth.
Still looking for a solution if someone has a suggestion.

Hey,
Check your inbox, i just sent you a zip. Extract the folder, it contains:
My N6 TWRP EFS backup
My /system/etc/wifi folder
My /Persist/wlan_mac_serial.bin
Hopefully one of those will get you back on track... Let me know once you have it, so i can delete it...
Backup your current system and EFS before using on of my files... Apply permissions as needed. Well, i guess you know how it works by the way

hey,
I just extracted the archive and the files are all here...
Not sure why you end up with 0 bytes files... Anyway, once you'll manage to extract them properly, reboot to twrp and backup your own EFS first:
If you boot to twrp for the first time, swipe to allow system modifications. Select backup > Choose EFS only > Swipe to backup...
Now, while in twrp, connect your phone to your computer, open internal storage on your phone > twrp > Backup the "backup" folder on your computer
Now go in backup > Serial number > Date of backup > Delete all files here and replace them with mines...
Go back to home > restore > select the folder which you used to backup your EFS (which you replaced with my EFS) > Swipe to restore...
You just restored the EFS partition...

Try to replace your wlan_mac_serial.bin with mine and reboot.

[RELEASE][NANDROID] Rooted Factory-Stock ROM

Hi all!
Well, thanks to everyone for their donations-- without you, this wouldn't be possible.
I present to you, one stepping stone towards custom ROMs: the shipping ROM on the device, backed up as a NANDROID.
What is this?
This is the shipping ROM on the device. There are no changes to this ROM besides being rooted.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I use this?
Extract the contents of this file to your SD card (external SD card) under
Code:
/clockworkmod/backups/
and you will end up with a
Code:
/clockworkmod/backups/revo_stock
folder.
Run Clockwork on your device, and select "Backups and Restore" then "Advanced Restore". Select "revo_stock" as the backup to restore, and choose to restore ONLY "system".
(You can also restore boot.img, but it is unnecessary, and I only left that in there for future use.)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What does this backup include?
This backup ONLY includes /system and boot.img. There is no recovery.img in this backup, nor is there a /data or /cache.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Will I lose my apps or information if I restore this backup?
No you will not, this backup will not touch your /data partition.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why is this useful?
Accidentally erased something important in /system?
Removed something and now 4g Hotspot doesn't work?
Restore this, and it'll fix that... of course all the stock OS will come back, but hey-- you get a second chance

Extract through windows and put on your SD card in the proper folder.
its telling me that i have a md5 mismatch!!! i will try downloading it again.
Thanks cube please keep up the hard work! I wish I could do something to help other then sending some $$$ I would love to help bring the revolution along.
Viva la revolution.
Did anybody use this yet. i tried and it says my md5 does not match. i tried numerous times
Haven't tried it yet but I checked the MD5 against the images and they are correct.
Ah, sorry, forgot to state select "Advanced Restore" or whatever it's called-- JUST restore system.img.
If you select "Restore" it looks for the /data and recovery.img in the nandroid.md5 file, and when it doesn't find it, it errors out with an md5 error.
I'll edit the instructions now...
Just tested this. I can't advanced restore the system.img either. Comes back with MD5 mismatch. I can restore my own backups without a hitch however.
[Edit] I forgot to mention. There's a carriage return on the Rooted Factory-Stock ROM MD5 file. Removing it didn't seem to matter. I was thinking that maybe it was the culprit.
Agh! you just gave me the answer... I saved it in windows, rather than linux, so the line endings are wrong...
If you're able to, just open the file nandroid.md5 in Notepad++ or something like it, and remove the extra blank line, and change the line endings to UNIX style.
Thanks, I'll re-upload the .zip when I'm on a faster connection.
The actual .img files themselves are good, though.

thanks thecube, it worked with the notepade++ steps and unix style.
re-uploaded. Should work just fine now.
Is there a version of this with everything? In other words, not just system but data, etc. I somehow am stuck in CWR...don't have a nandroid backup. I pushed this to the right place on the SD card, did the system restore, but it still repeatedly boots into CWR. Is there anything that will do a FULL restore instead of just system?
Thanks in advance.

Hm, so you did a data wipe from within Android. Yep, that'll get you stuck in CWR, but it's not a problem with the backup, it's that the LG bootloader isn't happy with Clockwork.
When installing Clockwork, did you make the p8 backup?
so im having the same problem i even started a thread too but im an idiot and didnt make that p8 backup because the md5sum didnt match so i stopped there but clockwork still seem to flashed to the phone now im in clockwork everytime i boot up was wondering any way to work around this if not guess imma just get a new phone until there is a way

There is a way, I just haven't written it into an easy-to-use program yet.
For now, if you haven't made a p8 backup, the easiest method is for you to come on IRC and have me adb into your phone and fix it for you.
If I get a spare moment though, I will work on a stuckinclockwork.zip that you can flash using clockwork to get you out of clockwork.

Ad-Hoc with HC S7 4 G?

Can someone who has upgraded their 4G to HC please tell me if it will support Ad-hoc WiFi connections?
Sent from my Dell Streak 7 using xda premium
I had to root it and with Root Explorer change out the wpa-supplicant file... if you are asking about Ad-Hoc I am taking for granted you have heard about this fix for the Streaks... If not just do a little searching for the file...
Once you have it, you go to /system/bin and find the original and rename it to *.bak or *.old, doesn't matter, just something so you don't lose it in case.
You should have your new wpa_supplicant file on your sd card... move it to that same folder, toggle your wifi off and on a couple of times and reboot... and when you come back you should be able to see ad hoc networks

You are unable to connect to your Ad Hoc network?
Little more info please... does your Streak see the network? If it sees the network and is not connecting, then it's more than likely a problem with your computer and not the phone...
I always set mine up with a simple name like Toshiba which is my laptop brand and I just leave it as an open network because I only use it for a moment so I don't have to put in a password... but still, gimme some more info on what your phone is doing while it tries to connect

Ah ok... so lemme be sure you did this right... you went into /system/bin and found your wpa-supplicant file and renamed it say wpa-supplicant.bak just in case (at least I hope you did) Ok, now you should already have the new file you downloaded on your sd card correct. SO you browse to that file and copy it to the same folder /system/bin and paste it in there...
Then go to your wifi and toggle on and off a couple of times, reboot the phone for good measure and when you come back it should work, if NOT, then rename the new file to wpa-suplicant.new I guess, and the original file, remove the .bak or whatever extension you used and restart your Streak to see if you get connectivity back, if so, then there's something wrong with the file you downloaded

Ok, I just upgraded to HC on my Streak 7 Wifi. I went and changed the supplicant file like I did on 2.2.2. My Streak connects, but when I connect to the internet I loose connection. Are there any other workarounds for connecting to adhoc wifi?

Not that I know of, but I haven't heard of your problem either, with the file changed out my wifi works just fine
Dell Streak 7 WiFi Rooted - Honeycomb - I also changed my WPA Supplicant and WiFi did not work right either. I had to go back to the original file.

wifi settings file, weird

Ok so I updated to 5.1.1. using prerooted flash and all worked fine except I lost all my wifi passwords, I did a twrp backup of 5.0 before doing the update
so I have looked and found where wifi passwords are stored (/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf) but when I look for this file I get to /data/misc/ but there is no wifi folder there either on the phone or in the twrp backup I did before updating
I know I am probably doing something stupid like looking in the wrong place but it seems fairly simple
root folder /data/misc/wifi/ what am I missing, does the xperia do this differently to other devices ? I have one stored password on the phone already and have used a password display app from the PS and it is able to find the details so why can't I
@Geoffxx
I've lost my WiFi passwords many many times but not anymore. Link in my sig - end of Post #3.

Help.. phone bricked, deleted /carrier applications

I was trying to cleanup carrier bloatware off my phone and I think I deleted some apps that were critical.
I deleted ItsOnService.apk (NetworkSystemProvider) and ItsOnUID.apk. Unfortunately I didn't make a backup of them. Then, wifi and LTE/3g stopped working (even if Wifi is connected, internet is permanently not available).
The worst part of this is that the issue persists after reflashing back to stock. The problem is I don't think the stock roms contain the /carrier directory. And now I cannot complete the setup wizard because at first boot, I'm forced to select a wifi network and once I connect internet is not available, so the wizard won't proceed.
Is there anything I can do? If someone were to send me the missing APKs could I use recovery mode and sideload them?

I do have the rooted image, as well as the stock image, I have applied both, the problem still exists. I think when I reroot or reflash it's not writing the /carrier directory, that must have come from somewhere else. I confirmed this by unpacking the TOT file and looking inside, it has all the apps, but it does not have the /carrier directory. Do you have ItsOnService.apk and ItsOnUID.apk? Maybe I could try sideloading them?

You need to know exactly what you deleted. The itsonuid is in the system/priv-app directory. I didn't see the itsonservice but didn't spend much time looking. You need to know if you deleted things out of carrier partition or vendor partition or both... Get a list together...

Thanks, I can confirm what you're saying, I did find ItsOnUID in system/priv-app, so at least I can restore that one. However, I am pretty sure ItsOnService is in /carrier and I deleted it using ES File Explorer. I had deleted ItsOnUID with Titanium Backup. Titanium Backup was not able to find ItsOnService, so that's why I had used ES File Explorer, which confirms that ItsOnService must have been in /carrier.
Since it looks like there is no /carrier directory in these TOT files, is there some other way I can get ItsOnService.apk? Can anyone out there send it to me?

OBB folder locked.

It seems my android\OBB folder is write protected. I can't install certain apps that need to write to this folder. I can't seem to unlock it and have been trawling Google for solutions.
I can delete the folder, then create a new OBB folder, but I still can't copy a folder into it. I'm using a rooted EU rom if this helps. Thanks
It is rooted device with EU rom on it
Can someone check on their phone if they can copy a file or folder into the obb folder? I'm getting very desperate for a fix

Yes, it works.
I can read/copy/delete every file/folder inside /Android/Obb directory.
Stock MIUI 10 Global.

No magisk modules installed. Thank you
I have faced this exact problem a few weeks ago. It started after I flashed a ROM, MiRum if I'm not mistaken. Tried deleting it via TWRP and make a new folder, changing the folder permission, no luck. I don't know how exactly I got my issue resolved, but I think wiping your data (storage) will do. Just backup your data, wipe your device clean, reflash your ROM, restore everything, and you'll be good to go...I guess.
I'm sorry if I can't be of more help to you in this regard.

Thanks for the suggestion. I guess this might have to be the last resort as I can't seem to find any other fix. I have tried the permission stuff in twrp file explorer also and this doesn't help. Cheers

Thank you for this. I have seen this and unfortunately on miui 10 this option is not there. The only option for mock sd card is to formal it. There is nowhere to enable/disable it. Not that I can find with developer options also enabled.
have you ever try to toggle "MIUI Optimization"? will it help?
or you may check the group/permission of the folder, here is mine
6815767 drwxrwx--x 72 root sdcard_rw 4.0K 2019-06-13 10:12 data
6815746 drwxrwx--x 4 root sdcard_rw 4.0K 2019-06-06 18:10 obb

I will check that now. Where can I check the group/permissions for the holder?
Thank you
I am going with a wipe and reinstall of everything. Hope this works
And a fresh wipe and install fixed it
