Default [Q] Andromadus Beta4 : no WiFi

Hi all,
Flashed Andromadus Audacity beta4 to test latest ICS version for DZ.
I have no WiFi at all, even with Mobile Data disabled.
Could someone please tell me the right permissions for /data/misc/wifi files ?
I have actually these :
Code:
-rw-rw---- system   wifi           21 2012-06-05 12:28 entropy.bin
-rw------- system   system          4 2012-06-06 14:07 ipconfig.txt
drwxrwx--- wifi     wifi              2012-06-06 14:16 sockets
-rw------- system   system         41 2012-06-05 20:13 softap.conf
-rw-rw---- system   wifi           62 2012-06-06 14:07 wpa_supplicant.conf
Thanks in advance for your time.
PS : Can't actually post in DEV forum as I don't have posted enough messages ...

Thanks for your answer.
In fact it isn't really for permissions I was asking for but for ownership.
So if you could either:
launch Terminal and type :
su
ls -l /data/misc/wifi

or via ADB (from PC):
adb shell
su
ls -l /data/misc/wifi

You'll get the files ownership.
Thanks again for your time.

Default wifi Not working

electronico_nc,

Have you managed to make wifi work on your device?

I think I'm having the same problem.

Does
"adb shell
su
ls -l /data/misc/wifi"
command helps to cope with the problem?

Hi NoorBall,
No it doesn't help, I have asked friends with ICS (but not G2/Desirez Z/Vision phones) to send me the dir ownership, it was the same as mine.
From memory (sorry haven't written lines), there was a problem with ipconfig.txt file from logcat.
Fed-up with trying to have WIFI working with ICS on my Desire-Z, I've gone back to my cm7-nightly-263 backup with which everything is working OK. (for me)
I'm pretty impressed by the fact that people with HTC Vision (G2/Desire Z) who have tried ICS don't have any problem with WIFI and I (and it seems you too) do ...

Default Thanks for reply, friend with the same problem!

Hi,

Yes, it's surprising that, you and me are only users having problem with wifi. Actually my wifi is working - I can turn on wifi, can create personal hotspots, but my problem is I cannot see any available wifi networks, when actually there are some working ones, which my laptop is using.
But anyway I think I'll stay with this rom, because I liked ICS (Thanks for developers) and have unlimited plan now, and will waiting for developers team to fix it in next betas.

Default Solved the problem

Found one solution of the problem, not the best one, but anyway is better than nothing, at least I have fully working wifi.

I noticed that this problem remains in every rom with ICS (Sensewich, Virtuous, Audacity).

The app called Wifix can solve problem with wifi in ICS. Pretty simple in use app, just root is needed. Here is the link in xda.

Check the Mimicry ROM in my signature & the FAQ/known issues post (3rd). It may help with some issues.
