firmware does not allow connecting to hidden Wifi networks - Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers

Gentlemen, there is a problem with this smartphone. Its firmware does not allow connecting to hidden Wifi networks. And this is not convenient in our country. The service said that the original firmware is for Taiwan, and it needs to be reflashed in order to be able to connect to the hidden Wifi network. How can I change the firmware and where can I get it?

[Q] WiFi issue in NODO update?

Guys i have two questions for those who tried the new NoDo update:
What about the hidden Wi-Fi networks, is there any option available now?
WP7 had some bugs regarding connecting to secure Wi-Fi networks, is it solved now?
Thanks,
NoDo still won't see hidden networks, still don't have fix IP...
I have the same problem with Wifi! I can connect it succesfully in my house but when i go to the cafe/bar or something similar i can't get it to work! My ip adress is also weird...
* Wi-Fi improvements. We now display your phone’s Media Access Control (MAC) address in Settings. (You might need this info if you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network that uses MAC address filtering. To learn more, see Connect to a Wi-Fi network.) We’ve also removed the limit on the number of Wi-Fi profiles that you can store and reduced the time it takes to start your phone if you’ve stored lots of Wi-Fi profiles.
yeah i too cannot connect to any hidden wifi networks, really annoying as they use hidden networks on all cruise ships so cant use it!

[Q] SGT Verizon wpasupplicant/WiFi

Hi
First, I am rooted with superoneclick and on EC02. I replaced the wpa supplicant from an adhoc working cersion so I could upgrade to EC02. After successful upgrade to EC02, I then went back in and replaced the wpa supplicant file so I could connect to my AndroidTether, which works. I can connect to any other network as well as long as it is open etc.
The problem that I am having is that I cannot have WiFi auto switch to an open network, or my home network etc. I have to manually go in to WiFi settings and disable Wifi and then re-enable WiFi then select the network manually. All passwords are remembered for networks, I just do not have auto-switching capability. Before upgrading to EC02 via a guide here in XDA, my WiFi would auto-select an open network that was available and pass worded, when I would leave work my SGT would automatically switch to my home network WiFi. I have tried FXR WiFi fix and rescue and other apps to fix this but still have to choose manually to disable and re-enable WiFi or manually select a network. Also, even when a network that I was in range and connected to is still being held onto even when I am no longer in range of the network. WiFi won't automatically let go of the previously connected network.
Again, I have to disable WiFi and manually select a network to switch WiFi connectivity. Any help or suggestions would be welcome.

NETGEAR router WiFi problems

I got a SGS GT-I9000 from my friend, not a tech person, was still running the stock 2.1 firmware. At work I use a NETGEAR router and couldn't find the wireless network. Checked the router's wireless settings and all was well, broadcasting SSID, access point enabled and using available channels, and had an iPhone connected to it. Upgraded to GB XXJVU and still cannot find the network! The scans return a bunch of other networks in the area but not the one I need to connect to. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

WiFi SSID priority in MM?

It's there any way I can specify priority of one SSID over another in MM? Is there an app or some other method?
I have Xfinity Internet service, so I am able to access any Xfinity WiFi network when I'm out. My home router therefore has both my home SSID and the Xfinity open one. If I'm out, and therefore sometimes connected to Xfinity, I come home and it automatically connects to Xfinity instead of my network and then I can't access my network.
I know I can just tell it to forget the Xfinity SSID, but if there was some way to tell it to always choose my home network over that one, that would be better.
Thank you!
BTW, currently running TEKXodus Hybrid N5 URv8E if it should matter.
