Problem with DSC ROMs after .63b - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey gang. Have to post this here until the post count goes higher.
I've been installing the updates for DSC as they are released, due to the nagging wifi freeze issue. Everything else works great.
However, something changed after .63b, perhaps the wifi_supplicant mod?
While at work, no ROM after .63b will authenticate to the WIFI. It scans and attempts connect 3 times, then goes to disabled.
Re-running ROM install for 63b and then new DSC_Test.zip (I like reboot menu option) works like a champ. Wifi freezes still occur, but are relatively infrequent. I'm on 406 Baseband.
As such, I'm unable to install the new .7, or anything after .63b.
I haven't seen anyone else mention a similar problem, perhaps they're only dealing with a single network. I use two, my home network and work network. My home network is WPA2 AES encryption, and seems to work fine with updated ROMs. My work network, nothing after .63b.
Just tried .7b again, nothing.......reloaded .63b, wifi fine.
Just wanted to bring this up. Thank you all so much for your efforts. Still the best ROM, and the best ROM support available.

Have you tried flashing Olleh kernel from Phoenix release post?

I believe I have, but was a while ago. I'll go try it again, to be sure. Thx.
UPDATE: tried several updated kernals, no avail. As soon as .6b, then .63b go on, my WIFI connects immediately. It's not in the kernal, but the ROM/framework.

I recommend a factory reset after flashing .7

Let's check this:

It will revert WiFi-related binaries to 407.
--
And be sure to flash Olleh kernel, it's the only actual thing that was changed in 0.64b

Ya, I had done resets and cleans installs on the earlier releases after .63b, all had the same issue...WIFI connects to home network, but not work network (801.x EAP)
As everything is configured and re-installed now, its easier to reload .6b and .63b, without reloading everything.

Looks like you're onto something here. Have both the Olleh kernal and the DSC_Check loaded and my work WIFI authenticated properly.
Since changing 2 things at once isn't proper troubleshooting protocol, I reloaded .7b. WIFI problem came back. Reloaded DSC_Check (not Olleh Kernal), and WIFI is fine now. So there's something in those binaries my work network wouldn't authenticate to.
If I can help you figure it out, I will. All working now though. You the man!

It's enough info. I'll revert to 407 wifi binaries in future releases.

I just wish we figure it out before 0.7 release

Sorry about that......it was the .7 release not working that finally motivated me to speak up.
Thank you for keeping the Streak relevant and rockin.

OMG!!! I was hitting my head all of yesterday. I converted my home network to WPA2-Enterprise (801.x EAP) after installing OpenLDAP and FreeRadius on my servers for AAA and keep getting the connect 3 times and then disabled. It appears from my FreeRadius logs that it send a challenge to my AP which then perhaps sends it to the DS5 and something happens there that is out of spec.
I started using DSC at .65b and that also had the same issue before I went to .7 yesterday. No idea that this would have worked on .63b.
Thanks man for helping me eliminate the LDAP or FreeRadius as the issue since these had passed with other test tools.

[Q] wifi fail with any rom except stock

I've done some searching but haven't been able to find a solution to this issue.
Basically, the wifi on my phone just 'dies' after a minute or so with any rom or kernel that I flash other than stock. It even dies after flashing CWM or DD/Siyah kernel onto stock rom.
Any ideas on why??? My Captivate was like a tank and stood up to all sorts of flashing abuse and bad flashes. It seems this sgs2 is similar...with the exception of the wifi. On all roms but stock it seems that if I disable the wifi, then re-enable it then it will work for a minute...then die again. very frustrating.
please give me some clues
Thanks,
What router do you have? And what rom's have you tried?
Have you tried using other modems for our phone? Just wondering if maybe your router only likes the stock modem and when you're flashing other roms, it might be changing you to a modem your router disagrees with. It's just a suggestion, trying to think outside the box. There are two sets of modem builds, just make sure you get the right ones for the right roms. Also try flashing the stock KH7 modem back over the custom rom. I'm no developer so WTF do i know. Just trying to help a brother out. Good luck.
I've tried with both an Asus RTN12 as well as an older Airlink 101. Both B/G/N routers which I've tried the stock firmware as well as dd-wrt. They are setup using channel 1, WPAPSK/AES. Behavior is the same whether the router is set to 20Mhz or 40Mhz. Both routers are based off an RaLink chipset. I don't have a router based on Broadcom (yet).
As for Roms....
UnNamed
ICScrewD
ICS'd out
Coz
Serendipity
By modem I assume that's listed as 'baseband' in the about section of the settings. Stock shows KH7. I've flashed the stock kk6 rom and just checked and it remains kh7 (flashed with Odin).
I did an OTA update to kk6 but neglected to check the modem that was installed with it.
Regardless, the wifi worked as designed under both older and newer stock roms.
I'll flash a rom this weekend and then flash modems to see if I can narrow it down. I'm in the process of moving so the next day or two are sort of out of the question
I personally like WPA2 better (especially with dd-wrt), but to each their own. What do you have your wifi-sleep policy set to? (settings>Wireless->Wifi settings>Press menu button->advanced.)

If your phone is a Samsung i777 AT&T model and you want to get
your wifi working properly then simply download UnNamed v2.2.1
custom rom which is the very best custom rom currently available
for our phones. The UnNamed rom also has superior battery life.
The UnNamed v2.2.1 Custom Rom is not only the most stable and reliable
custom rom but it's also the most aesthetically pleasing rom which is currently
available for our phones. (i777 AT&T)
Since you have tried so many things already be sure that before flashing
another rom that you go into settings>privacy and select "factory data reset".
Then be 100% sure that you have done a "wipe data/factory" reset using
CWM Recovery before flashing another custom rom.
After you flash the UnNamed rom you will no longer have any wifi problems at all.
Be sure that after flashing the rom you make a nandroid backup of the rom
before you install any apps and or before for who knows what god forsaken reason
you should want to change or flash a different kernel rather than leaving it alone
and use the excellent kernel which the rom comes with.
Good Luck!
You sound like an advertisement for UnNamed
Seriously though...I have tried UnNamed from 2.1.1 to 2.2.1
ICScrewD from 1.4 to 1.6.1, etc.
Wifi completely breaks if I flash the CWM or any kernel over the stock. I've flashed so many roms, kernels, and modems over the past 2 weeks I couldn't even begin to count how many.
Just out of curiosity, have you tried connecting to wifi on a different router, like at work or a friends house...? Have you tried resetting your routers? With all that you've tried, it's just strange that you still can't get a connection.

I intentionally left the baseband separate from my UCKK6+root package because people often want to run a different modem than system.
Flashing a new baseband will do nothing for wifi - everyone who tells you that is too accustomed to HTC phones where Qualcomm AMSS runs EVERYTHING.
It's strange if anything but stock fails for you... UCKK6 wouldn't surprise me because it has all sorts of weird BCM4330 (wifi/bluetooth) problems, but I haven't heard of wifi regressions with my kernel when flashed on UCKH7.

Yeah... It's a little annoying. Yeah, Unnamed is an excellent firmware, but "best" is a matter of taste. It's funny that he's pimping a firmware when the firmware dev almost blocked him for that damn penis-gecko.

Logging into a router at work wont do any good since i work from home. the neareat open wifi network is out of range. I did log in to chic fil a once but unfortunately i dont remember the reaults....my mind was focused on lunch.
I have also reset both routers i have here. tried different firmwares foe the routers as well but got the same result...but both of my routers are based on ralink chipsets. two different ralink chipsets at that, but still made by ralink.

I forgot to mention, before you flash the UnNamed v2.2.1 custom rom
be SURE to flash the ODIN based CWM Recovery kernel, not the
CWM flashable kernel to start with.
(because who knows whiich kernel you have now since you have flashed so many)
Below is the ODIN flash CWM Recovery kernel which you should have
flashed in the first place when coming from the stock to custom rom.

Try resetting the security type in the wireless modem/ router to a personal wireless security and try it out. I had some issues with Wifi but after the resetting of the router, the wifi has been working fine.
In the advanced wifi settings, enable up to channel 14, and set your router to channel 11+40mhz (150mbps) and see if that works. Channel 1 might have too much interference for this phone or something... not sure.
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't channels beyond 11 for out of US region?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
From Wikipedia "In the USA, 802.11 operation in the channels 12 and 13 is actually allowed under low powered conditions. "
And its not like the FCC drives around looking for routers broadcasting in those channels, our routers are too weak to broadcast that far. But you're just enabling up to channel 14, doesn't mean that you're going to use it.
WiFi Fail MAC address Bluetooth address Unavailable
I am basically at the same point..WiFi Fail..It will scan and then turn back off. Started off with a stock phone..Followed the customizations steps..No problems reading the Flash Counter..Ran step 2c..It worked Great..passed..had UCKH7 but had no WiFi..Did the wipe data/factory reset as mentioned in other threads and WiFi returned..Then I did the OTA update to UCKK6 and WiFi was still working. So I downloaded Mobile Odin Pro from the market so I could complete step 3a. I had already extracted the zImage from Entropy's 1208 DD and placed it on my sd card. Ran MO on the phone selected the zImage and it ran flawlessly. I am still rooted and have CWM 5.0.2.7..but the WiFi shuts off again shortly after turning it on..So I tried the wipe data/factory reset again but it did not help this time. As far as I can tell everything else works great on the phone, calls, texts and so on...But after looking at some of the about phone settings..I noticed that both the MAC address and Bluetooth Address lines show unavailable...and I think that is why the WiFi shuts back down shortly after turning it on..Now I was going to move onto step 4 and flash UnNamed ROM for practice and then go back to stock using the guide..but I was wondering if I missed something important that caused the WiFi issue
What are the first 6 characters of your mac address? (on stock) At this point... I'm thinking they might have changed the wifi chip or something...

Currently under... Settings..About Phone..Status..Wi-Fi MAC address & Bluetooth address show "Unavailable"
But since I have an access list enabled on my router...I would say my MAC address started with 04:46:65 I'll be able to verify that when I get it back.
I'm going to try another wipe and a different Entrophy Kernel and see what happens. I know I can get WiFi back by going through the steps again and I enjoy all the tinkering..so I just wanted share some of the stuff I was seeing.

[Q] Need Help Badly not connecting to Wifi

my wifi worked for awhile then stopped connecting. tried wiping cache/davlik 3 times. tried re-installing the rom. i nandroided back to an older version which wifi worked before and now it doesn't. tried flashing a different rom no success. tried flashing a different kernal anthrax b-02 via recovery no success so i tried flash gui image app in the market. all with no luck. im on h-boot 1.40.

The 4G and WiFi drivers are stored in the same directory. Generally, if one is not working due to a mismatch with the kernel, the other one will not work either.
Since you're taken some initial steps to gaurantee the WiFi module definitely matches the kernel version, I would move on two more detailed troubleshooting.
There are two approaches I would suggest to get at the root of the issue quickly without wasting more time/effort.
1) When you toggle WiFi on/off from the Settings screen, what message does it display there? It should also be displaying detailed error out put in at least the logcat if not also in dmesg/kmsg. If you are able to post up these logs, it should help narrow down the issue.
2) Nandroid your current setup, you can revert back later and then flash a completely 100% stock ROM and kernel. Use a modified version of the RUU if needed.
Personally, I would glance at the logs from Step 1, but to make sure the hardware on the device is in deed working 100% and there are no hardware issues, I would revert to 100% stock ROM and kernel. If the WiFi doesn't work with 100% ROM and kernel, this would appear to be a potential hardware issue and I would look into getting the device repaired/exchanged.
If the WiFi works on the 100% stock ROM and kernel, then the issue now lies with either the previous ROMs/Kernels or the methods used to load them.
Hope that helps and appreciate the support!
hey, thanks for the reply and help.
when i try ti connect in the settings, it attempts to connect and obtain the ip address but it doesnt connect and just times out. i dont know how to look at or even find the the logcat or dmesg/kmsg. if you could tell me how to find it, i would post it.
im going to try to flash a stock rom with stock kernal, hope fully its not a hardware issue. i will post my results on the stock rom flash.
i just flashed Shooter_S_Sprint_W...8.651.3_deodex.zip and still no wifi.
am i just screwed or is there another way to fix this problem?

[Q] Atrix Wi-Fi Error

BEFORE I START... THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH MY HOME WIRELESS ROUTER
Don't be that guy
I bought my ATT Atrix last Jan. Everything worked. I rooted it. Everything worked. I updated to 2.3.4. Everything worked. Rooted again. Still worked
Starting Feb. 2, 2011 the wifi and bluetooth have stopped working. When I go to turn either on it tries for a few seconds, then gives me "Error", and then the phone reboots in about 10 seconds.
This is a video of the exact problem I am having. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a73A5oXxpq8 I am not the guy who posted the video. Please don't bug him. I am the first to comment on it.
The phone got so bad yesterday that it got locked into a constant reboot stage where I was lucky to get out one text before it rebooted.
I was able to unlock the bootloader using adb and cwm. I then flashed the GingerMod 2.3.6 #7 Mod. My constant rebooting problem was solved but the WiFi/bluetooth error still remained as well as the reboot while trying to turn either on.
I then read through [FIX] Final fix for nonworking WIFI on unlocked ATT Atrix in some countries This does not seem to work with 2.3.6.
Does anyone know how to get my WiFi working again?
Not sure if it will help you but it helped me with my small wifi issues.
Since i purchased my Atrix I couldn't connect to some wifi spots.
Lets say 1 of 20 spots fails. Just couldn't get ip address.
And just yesterday i flashed the final version of faux 024r ketnel (for neutrino 2.2 ROM[CM Weekly #6]) and problem wanished. At least i connected to spot created on my laptop that i couldn't do before

Hi Paygan,
Just remember that if you make any change like unlock the bootloader you will loss your warranty, so, if you still have the warranty, you should consider to use it to fix your problem.
I just accepted to lose my warranty because my phone was ok (and I hope it keep that way!

tell me if it works?
If both wifi and bluetooth are not working i'd say 99% it's a hardware issue since they're on the same chip.
i had the same problem a while ago after i dropped my phone. it was unlocked but i was able to warranty it out to AT&T by flashing the stock 2.3.4 blah.blah.91 sbf onto it, which does not re-lock it but it does hide the Unlocked msg that you see at boot
I am having the same problem. running 2.3.6 build 4.5.141
After 2 hours of wifi my phone returned to the same wifi error loop including restarts and the rest. I have tried all fixes on this site and other sites. This occurred soon after I unlocked my device. Does anyone know the cause of this problem?!
I heard hardware problem, maybe it's unlocking from 2.3.6 that caused it since I was also running that

Atrix, Wifi and Random Reboots

Hi,
I have a major issue with my WiFi and reboots.
Background: I am using an ATT phone within the UK on T-Mobile network.
Randomely, the other day, the WiFi turned off and when I turned it back on, it says Error....
I have tried everything I can think of; wiping and reinstalling rom, erasing everything in fastboot, updating the radio (further question on that) and also kernels! Finally I tried FruitCake to get back to stock, still no luck!!
Radio: Are radio's carrier specific, i.e. could I flash a radio meant for Europe to replace the ATT one? (I am on .36)
What can I do now, please. Thanks

If it helps, i accidentally formatted the PDS partition a while back and the reason for reboot is AP KERNEL PANIC
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am having similar problems. Just last night my phone started rebooting frequently after having turl's v8 build of cm9 for probably a week and it was working great. However, now I have tried wiping everything, putting on different cm7 or cm9 builds and what I have come to the conclusion is anytime I turn the WiFi on, it reboots.
It is not even connecting to anything, just turning it on makes it reboot. I was on the .36 radio with this issue, I tried using the .37P radio and it did not fix it.
Does anyone have any other ideas to try and fix?
Benny,
Do you get the option to turn it on? I'm on cm9 and it'll show up like the attached after it reboots.
No. I dont have that screen. It just says wifi error and Bluetooth crashes as well....

From the other threads I have read, I think we are boned. It seems like the Broadcom WiFi/Bluetooth chipset is borked and the only fix other people have gotten is through an actual repair. I hope you are under warranty - I'm going to revert to stock and hope they accept it.

But, how come whenever I flash a new rom, the WiFi will work temporarily, i.e. it would connect, obtain IP etc for a few minutes then just not work until I reflash?
Surely that is not hardware?

Did you use Titanium Backup, and restore apps like Maps, Music, and YouTube? People are saying this can cause issues.
Also did you restore call logs after flashing? I experienced my wifi and mobile networking dying after doing that on only some of the new roms out there lately. It's a bug with one of the base roms, that a lot of custom roms are based off of. It was fixed with a new base rom version, but some of the custom roms have yet to officially update. Updates are under way though. Try out Morrison's 0.7 and see if you get the same result. It's been updated.
Although, you could be having a completely different issue. If you mean you can just leave it running after flashing and the wifi dies, I don't know what to say.

Tried all of the above and still nothing unfortunately. Just want to update on symptoms of the phone if that helps:
Everything eventually gets more and more buggy, even recovery is really laggy and slow
Data will stop after a few days use, and only fix that i know of is to reflash
WiFi does not work, it connects for about 30 seconds after a reflash, but then nothing.
Logcat says - Failed to Load WiFi Driver (after reporting WiFi HUNG)
The phone can crash when I plug in the MicroUSB to charge, when it restarts it says AP KERNEL PANIC.
I have tried everything except for flashing via RSD lite, do you think that could work?
Thanks
BUMP,
Any help at all with this unique situation would be very helpful.
Thanks

[Q] ParanoidAndroid (and other) JB ROMs - Can't get mobile network to work

I can't post to the dev forum, so maybe someone over here can help:
I tried the PA ROM, because I really love the hybrid mode. The ROM has worked fine and looks great, but whatever version I flash, the mobile network, both data and phone, simply doesn't work.
It briefly connects to my provider (drei.at) and immediately disconnects, no matter whether I have data connection enabled or not.
Have tried this with all available versions of PA and did the usual routine: wipe, format system, wipe data. I even went totally back to a stock ROM, tried various modems, the current one being XXDLH9, which works just fine on [email protected] 0.6 ROM.
Had the same problem with Omega, FoxHound, and god knows what other ROMs I tried. No matter what, the only JB ROM actually working is [email protected] 0.6, that's it.
Is this a known phenomenon or have I overlooked something obvious?
The phone used to be a branded and simlocked Austrian T-Mobile, but ever since it has been debranded and SIM unlocked.
Any ideas?
All i can suggest is your apn settings?
Can try Offline SIM APN Database (get on Google Play) to insert the correct apn settings.

Thank you for the suggestion. The APN settings on a fresh install, all wiped, are correct and the same as in a working setup.
Any other ideas? Am I really the only one with that problem?
Modem tried APN correct .
Suggest next step is factory reset ..
Step after that is to install an official stock rom .
Others who may have a problem post in the roms thread .

Did a factory reset, totally clean install with everything wiped.
Also, did a clean wipe and installed official stock ROM. Lost root, started from scratch and still didn't work.
I'd love to post in the ROM forums, but haven't yet posted my mandatory 10 postings.. Maybe this thread helps me to reach that limit

Very unlikely since it works on stock ROMs and [email protected] 0.6.
Uhm you just said that it still did not work on Stock?

No, that's not what I said. Stock ROMs work just fine; I actually just flashed the latest leak (DLI5) and had no problems with the network. The problem hasn't changed, so it's what I wrote in the OP: Only JB to work ist latest leak and [email protected] 0.6. All others can be installed but have not network connection other than WiFi.

Have you tried flashing a new baseband? i had the same problem, when flashing the franco. Kernel..
or, go back stock, then reflash the desired ROM
EDIT: If it helps, I speak/write fluent german ('Cause I live in germany ^^)

Thanks for trying to help.
Yes, I have been playing around with all kinds of basebands, trying to flash modems etc. but that does not seem to be the reason for it. I have had different modems working and the very same modems simply did not work with PA at all. Best example ist yesterday's leak DLI5 which I flashed and had a virgin like system working just fine with my network. I then flashed the PA ROM, which then had the same baseband as the latest stock ROM, but, alas, same story: No network.
The weird thing is the brief connect it always shows in the status bar. It lasts roughly 4-5 seconds and then disconnects again, only showing the empty network status display.
It really sucks, because I find the idea of hybrid ROMs really appealing, in fact, this seems to me as a truly superior way of making use of the 720p display.
Need to try logcat next to see whether the connect/disconnect somehow can be monitored from there. Will report on that.

I was having the same issue, I pulled the SIM and wiped it down, blew off the contactors, seems to of solved the problem for the time being.
WiFi works, Mobile Networks do not

I just installed ParanoidAndroid. I'm kind of a noob to all of this.
I understand some, but not all.
My mobile networks are not working.
I don't get any notification at the top of the screen either saying I'm on a mobile network.
I've messed around with the APN settings. It seems that every now and then it'll connect for a brief moment, but I can't really do anything unless I'm connected to WiFi.
Any help would be appreciated.
I came from a stock phone rooted.
Installed this and now I'm here.
Please HELP!!

The network is fine but doesn't exchange data correctly.. AOSP worked fine for me.. PA= flawless

Turns out I just had crappy reception at home.
I wanted to get 3+ but something got in the way and had to go with the 2.+
Sorry for not understanding, but what is AOSP? I see that, but I don't get what is what.
ASOP = Android Open Source Project.. They are best but not that much good at battery
Spend some time on xda and Google your doubts.. You'll surely understand everything from android
