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.

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 am experiencing the same issue with Virtuous 2.39 Unity
My router is Gigaset 504 AGU.
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...

Hi guys,
as the LEAP wifi connection works as harm on 4.1.2 and stop working on 4.3 (I know the reason - the field user certificate is missing on wifi setting window), I would like to firstly install 4.1.2 on my xperia sp and set up the wifi (user certificate, password, etc). Ater that, using pc upgrade
the android to 4.3. It keeps my wifi settings, so it keep connecting.
But when I'm trying to unlock bootloader, I lost all settings.
Is it possible to restore the settings, from file? Which file is responsible for that?
Is that /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file? Enough to keep it and restore it after unlock bootloader?
best regards

Help.. After flashing cm it's not rooted how can I enable it?
All CM based ROMs are rooted, you have to enable it in Settings -> Developer Options (if it's not visible then go to Phone info and tap 7x version number, search the web if you don't know how to do it)
Thanks

Problem solved thanks.....now gellry photos some times appear and some times not with force close
I recently enabled developer mode on my Mi 5 running stock V9.2.1.0 NAAMIEK.
Am unable to disable developer mode again though. When I toggle the mode, it switches off fine.. but appears switched on whenever I enter the developer settings again.
Also, I saw a notification for an OS update before I did that.. but it doesn't appear anymore.
What's causing this?
Thanks
Earlier whole factory reset was required to remove the option. Easy fix : Open Settings > Apps > find Settings > Clear data. Reopen Settings, developer options should be gone.
P.S. Developer options doesn't void your warranty, so if there is an ota update you will receive it. Check whether Automatic system updates is enabled in the Developer options.
I rooted my device and decided to root out.
At the time of turning the rom in the device, I ended up installing a lower rom that was in the device. Now the device does not enable wifi, mac address is only 0 and the device is dead and does not recognize any chip.
I tried to run a new rom, but I can not because this flashing lock and when I try to use the command to leave flashing unlock, asks to enable the OEM option, but I can not enable the option because it requests internet access.
I've tried everything to see if I can connect to the internet to enable the OEM option and I can't. I even tried to use internet via bluetooth, but the device configuration does not recognize that it is connected.
Can someone please give me a solution?
