[Q] Cant connect to Hidden SSID's Wifi - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hi.
A friend of mine has just upgraded his Galaxy Ace through Kies to latest firmware (2.3.4) and now it cant connect to Wifi with hidden SSID, it keeps "Getting IP Address" and then just disconnect and put the SSID a Remembered, out of range, has anybody experienced the same issue? It didnt has this problem with froyo, I already wiped data and cache from recovery and the issue stays the same.
Just FYI, its a Latin Ace (specifically, from Mexico).
And the Hidden Wifi Network is working without issues with my Milestone 2, Xperia Mini Pro, LG Optimus One and Optimus ME.
Hope somebody could help.

Actually, this is the version of my friend's Ace:
Android Version: 2.3.4
BaseBand: S5830LUMKA1
Kernel: [email protected] #1
GINGERBREAD.UMKP3
And yes, it was upgraded from Kies.
So, anybody has this problem? I already tried wipe data and cache from stock recovery and the issue persists.
Do you know of some rom or firmware that can connect to hidden wifi networks? Hope somebody could help, i know almost nothing about the Ace, but i have experience flashing custom roms on other devices (Dext, Milestone 2, Optimus One, Xperia Mini Pro XD).

Hello,
Any update regarding this issue?

To maintain ICS and fix these problems, you may do a factory data reset; if you want to GB, flash with an official Samsung program an official package to restore GB.

Weird signal problem on Bell Galaxy note after ICS OTA

Hello, i have upgraded my Bell Galaxy note to ICS using kies (it has been hard at first as OTA was failing and kies failed first time but got it right after)
After ICS installed and me very happy to have it at last i noticed twice now that LTE or my connection was dead and i had to reboot the phone to have it working again ... otherwise was like no network (showing LTE but no activity and not able to browse or send sms etc)
Any suggestion on what it could be or if a known issue with ICS ?
And where do i get the premium suite ? coming with the ICS update or need to download it somewhere else ?
Thanks for any help ....

Again i had to restart my phone as the radio was not working anymore (no signal) ... after reboot the signal was excellent .. (been doing that a couple of time since upgrade to ICS official ... any suggestion ? should i flash back to stock Bell without ICS and then upgrade again .. as the first time i upgraded to ICS it was on a phone already rooted and with CMW .. but no rom
well .. nobody answered yet so ... i will go on and flash stock Bell gingerbread and then update back to ICS with the phone all clean of everything to see if the intermittent not working signal will be fixed that way ...
Also i have not heard if any known LTE problems with ICS ? ....
Will update with my results .. hope i do not brick my phone
Simply wow ... i just flashed with a Bell stock system for gingerbread .. all fine but then i go to Kies or ota upgrade and no traces of ics ????? how can it get back the upgrade for ICS now ????

do you really flashed a rom for the 7500. I ask because when you flashed a ROM for the 7510 (wifi only models) you get the same error. everything works except 3g.
Please post some more details of your current rom which have this error.
These are not working for me (got the Ita en UK ones froms Sammobile) see below:
GT-P7500 Italy 2012 July Android 4.0.4 P7500XXLQ8 P7500OXALQ8
Indeed the UK one was for the 7510, hope i didn't mess up my tab

how do you flashed? with Odin?
Try to flash the stock rom for your gtab. After that, flash the Italy version for the gtab.
By the way: have you root your tab or installed a custom kernel?
Id it all...
From stock via Odin, Root, ICS
All the resets needed and so on...
Not realy a N00B overhere, got loads of experience but this is blowing my mind
Even did a try HEX-editing the files in /elf/ (and yes backing it up b4)
Back to stock now and 3G is fine.
As I have a p7501 I can't really test it, but I will try it tomorrow.
What I've tested is the jelly bean rom out of the dev section. It's ics 4.0.4 based on the Italy room. Really closed to the stock. 3g works fine on my gtab. May have a look.
So if the italy ics firmware file is not corrupt, I've no answer till now.

Well, i found out my Device ID / Serial number are gone.
Anyway to restore it?
(also mailed Samsung and waiting for their answer)
Do you have a backup of your efs folder?
I mean as you said you are not a noob and have loads of experience.. I do have a backup of my efs.. Of every single device I own... If you flashed a wifi only rom you even lose you imei and so that's why your 3G is not working
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Yes got backups...
Thanks for this suggestion!
Gonna restore an old /efs/ but furst have to see the read/write rights on these files inside.
