Situation:
I have recently flashed the modaco r5 for hero 2.1. I noticed that my GPS was not working, but it has always been a bit iffy. Doing some research I read that I needed the Mobile Network (use phone for data connection when WIfi is unavailable) checked. Without turning on wifi, my GPS worked excellently, fixed to 8 satellites in a second.
Problem:
I turned on my wifi, but b/c of the Mobile Network option, I think it switches to Wifi as its primary data source and neglects the GPS. So the GPS does not work until I turned off the wifi.
Question:
I know people usually don't use GPS and Wifi together, but is there a way to get them both working together?
Thanks everyone and much appreciated!
I upgraded my X10i to 2.1 and my Wifi is not working. I have confirmed that it is not the router etc. since the wifi works on my PC and my Wife's X10 mini pro.
When I turn on the wifi on my X10 it scans fine and finds my wireless router no problem. When I connect (using my WPA password) everything looks fine and the wireless indicator appears in the statusbar. HOWEVER, when I try to connect to the internet via the browser/market/facebook it returns a message saying NO NETWORK FOUND (no internet connection via wifi) !!
I have already tried -
*reset to factory settings
*reinstall of 2.1 via SEUS
*re-connecting to wireless router with WPA password.
Nothing works!!
Can anybody help?
Is there any way to reset the wifi on my phone?
hi, i had this problem after the upgrade, i changed to the name of my router and then it was fine. try that.
UPDATE - I can get the wireless connection on my X10 to work when it is not encrypted (ie with WEP, WPA etc.)
Now I really don't know what is going on....
Anybody out there to give some advice? pleeeeeeeeaaaase
Thanks
nvm sorry I see that you did every thing.
is just weird had that prob when having nordic now i don't
try installing 1.6 and see if it's the fw or the phone
Sometimes try adding connection manually, then the wifi suddenly detects it from that point onwards..
After i upgraded the firmware to 2.1, my wifi just stops working. When i turn wifi function on, there is wifi logo appearing on the top of the screen and never detects any wifi access point. Anyone knows what is going on? Is that a bug of 2.1? as wifi was working fine with 1.6

I think the 1st time it needs a little push. Try turning WiFi off, back out of settings, back in turn on, go to wi-fi settings and manually select. That worked for me. Had similar with bluetooth.
I have the same issue with 2.1 upgrade and Wifi + WPA2 router protection!!
Wep protection works fine! but for me is not ok it is a weak wifi protection I need WPA2!
please help
I read that wifi fixer may work however I cannot test it untill I reset my modem or switch to Wep....
can some one test wifi fixer? thanks.

Hello,
Not long ago i decided to wipe everything from my device and install new rom and kernel just to fresh it up a bit, i want to highlight this: Before i did it, everything was Alright, at least everything related to internet and WiFi.
Anyway, Since i did it I'm experiencing problems with my WiFi connection (at least when I'm connected to my home WiFi router)
Everything Seems to be OK, i have the WiFi icon on the status bar, with at least 1 or 2 lines of WiFi reception (Same like i had Before i changed ROM and everything was alright)
The problem is that some of the time the WiFi is alright, i Can surf the web and use internet apps like Facebook and YouTube, but Most of the time.... Well i just can't... I do have the WiFi icon but the internet doesn't respond...
Another thing, I'm using laptop and connected to the same WiFi network my phone is connected to and everything is just fine... so the problem is with my Galaxy S2 Device and not my WiFi network..
I found a way to solve it and about 60% of the times i disable and enable WiFi my internet works again for some minutes...
Does anyone got a clue what my problem could be?
Thanks!
Try a different modem ..
Try a different rom .
Put your old rom back on .
jje
i Have tried several other modems and nothing changes,
About the ROM i really want to stick with my new ROM and i haven't heard of anyone using it experiencing same problems...
Hi i went from stock ics on my ray to cm9 by followingnexact step by step guide provided by cm9. Used their kernel as well. Have never modded my phone before. Having a small problem with wifi though. After my phone has been asleep for a while, if i wake it up the wifi icon in status bar is no longer blue its a dark grey and i can no longer browse anything or use the internet. Ive tried rebooting. I did the whole wipe cache etc when installing cm9. In wifi settings in advanced ive also left the setting to "leave wifi on when sleep" checked. If i turn off and on the wifi connection the phone ofcourse is able to reconnect again the icon is blue and i can connect. It not jsut a one off thing its been happening since i isntalled the rom.
If i wakek from sleep a few minutes later i have no issue with wifi. Its only when its been sleep for a while do i have this issue.
Any solutions?
I have the exact same problem but for me it's even bigger, whenever i turn on wifi on my modem, i can connect to internet on my phone, but after awhile i lose my connection completely, on my phone and on my pc also, the only way to get it back is to reset my router and wait for like 5-10minutes...

If its also an issue with your. Pc then your issue might be also the router.
My other devices actually work fine in my case its oky this phone that has issues. Macbook iphone ipad nexus s no problems with those.
Same issue here. I can see available networks but unable to connect. There should be no problem with the wifi router as all my other devices work well and I have tried another router. Now I have to flash back to stock firmware.

Your issue seems more severe than mine. Mine actually connects and works, just that when it wakes from long sleep it wont work until i turn off and on wifi.
I get this problem too, but my problem even worse than yours. My wifi lose it's connection after a while, but the icon on status bar shows it's connected, running ping test, browse, even play store can't be accessed. I pinged the router and got unreachable.
And yeah, this problem occurs when I'm using all ICS based rom..
Anybody has any idea if this is a known problem, or if its just us few having thisissue?

I have same problem. I have SE xperia mini with CM9. WiFi worked fine until yesterday. Now phone can't connect to AP (full signal - try connect -> signal drops down), but sharing 3G internet over WiFi works fine. I cleared dalvik cache, but that didn't help.
Hello team,
My Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 (international version) started to have wifi problems after stock update to 4.1.2. After that, I´ve tried many software and hardware fixes, including changing the wifi antenna cable. The result was the same, so I decided to try custom ROMs and came straight to CM11.
The wifi signal is very weak, and I can only connect from a few meters from the router
Installed CM11, full wipe cache/data/dalvik and still the same problem, weak wifi, connection only from if close to the wireless router.
Reading all the forums on XDA and CyanogenMod, I found the wifi-fix patch, which writes "murata" on the /data/.cid.info. This fix brought me powerful wireless signal, and now I get full signal bar to my router and even see many neighbor APs... but I am not able to connect. When I try to connect, type de password and than it just goes back to "Saved, protected by WPA/WPA2". I´ve also disabled authentication on the wireless router, and the result is the same. It won't connect not even to open networks, although I see strong signal.
Deleted the wifi_fix patch (delete ¨91fixwifi¨ on init.d, delete ¨.cid.info¨ under /data and rebooting), and went back to old status: very weak wifi signal, but able to connect (associate) if I´m very close to the router.
Turned wifi on and off, airplane on and off, captured log on "Murata" and "Samsung" modes...
Strange is that my wlan mac address is 88:32:9b:xx:xx:xx, which seems to be Samsung, but the Murata brings me powerful signal (although I cannot connect).
Well, I´ve tried many solutions so far, but that´s how far I could go...
Can anyone provide me some clue to solve it? I would be very thankful to have wifi back to my phone.
Log files are in attachment
Murata log (strong wifi, not able to connect)
Samsung log (weak wifi, able to connect when very close to wireless router)
Thank you all!
I too have only a range of 3 metres, I have 7 routers in the house because of this, yet I have less than 15% coverage of the house with this device. To put that in perspective, an HTC One X and Atrix 2 has 90% coverage with 2 routers. I'm 1 metre from the router in my room and I've got 1 bar, sometimes 2 briefly.
[Edit]
Woah, I tried the fix from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/cm9-i9300-advice-t1898004/post41394293
Seeing as it can easily be reverted, it displays very high signal. What I'd expect. But it doesn't let me connect either. I also tried CM10.1 like the people who it worked for, it didn't work.
