[Q] Wifi not working on rezound after tapped rom installed

---

Hello All,


I'm not to this forum. I'm having a very strange issue. I had unlocked and flashed a scotts clean rom to my phone. This rom worked fine. It was the cleanrom standard 4.4. Everything worked fine, but I wanted to try something without sense. So I followed the instructions and ran scott's wipe program that wipes 5 times over. Then I did a wipe on the device. From there it got stuck in a loop where I would boot it into the hboot and it would try to load that weird PH89IMG file and then reboot and do the same thing.

Believe it or not I resolved this by removing the SD card then booting to recovery then slightly lifting the battery and inserting the sd card in and mounting so that I could load another rom after mounting it. Just to be safe I did perform one more wipe. I loaded the CLEANrom tapped edition. It installed and booted up just fine, only one problem. I cannot turn the wifi on.

So I cleared the cache and Dalvik cache, rebooted. still no wifi. It sits on turning on. The wifi mac address is obviously unavailable. It went to an error evetnaully, but there was no detail in it other than the word ERROR. I tried reloading the ICS kernel as well, still nothing. I didn't see anything in the forum on this issue, so I am not sure why it's isolated to my device. can you help me?

Thanks.

I know your tired of wiping and flashing but this has happened to me before on a previous Clean Rom version. Wipe then reinstall ROM. **Caution** Before you boot to Rom, boot to recovery and flash the kernel that came with the Rom. That cleared up my broken wifi. Also beware that if the Clean Rom tapped edition uses a different base ie. 3.14.605.05 or 3.14.605.10. then you have to flash the Stock Rooted RUU of 3.14.605.05 or 3.14.605.10 and then wipe and install ROM. link to stock RUU:

I have had this issue with a couple newer ICS ROMS I have tried and it all seems to come down to reflashing the Kernel. Even after updating Nils' Roms to newer versions my rezound would load up fine and everything worked except wifi. If I went back into recovery and reflash the kernel wifi would be back to normal again. Make sure you have the correct kernel designated for that ROM as I have noticed some Kernels need to be redownloaded and reinstalled seperately. Good Luck

Hello,

I am having the same problem and I am on Rezound Pure GSM sense 3.6 rom.....I am confused whether to flash the wifi modules for the new kernel from the above link....I don't wanna take any risks as I finally got my GSM working on atnt.

Thanks!!
