wifi scan error

---

greetings. I ve got a gt i5800 and suddenly the wifi does not scan for networks. I activate it and a message like scaning (for networks) was unable or not possible (in my language) and then it deactivates itself. I can use the internet turning on 3g but I cannot use wifi due to scan error. Any clues?

backup /data/wifi/bcm_supp.conf
after backing up (your stored passwords are in there) delete the file.
usually then it scans again for networks...

another possibility is, that you use a g3mod kernel for CM6.2 for froyo

Are you using any sort of custom rom that might have this effect on your phone? Even the samsung roms are a little faulty and sometimes these things occur. Just flash a stock rom if you are using a custom rom and if you are using a stock rom just flash the latest one for your region or wipe data/factory reset/hard reset. This should sort it although the comment above sounds like the person knows what he's doing
