WiFi Channels change?

Hi Demar, I'm currently on GR4, but it should be the same on TP2.

I just tested with my own setup, I set the wi-fi channel on the router to channel 13, and the phone was unable to connect.

Then I changed the property "ro.wifi.channels" in build.prop to 13. After a reboot it connected fine.

So it seems that's all you need to do, either edit or add the line

"ro.wifi.channels=14"

to your build.prop.

Yeah. I know this. I tried, but without results..

Which kernel are you using? I'm on HP-RC4.

Problem solved.
I'm not sure with what ?

I changed following:
ro.product.locale.region=EU
ro.wifi.channels=14


And installed some script that I found on forum

No I can choose regulatory domain

Hmm... What script do you mean?


Anyway, to enable last (14) channel for .11g, without the script,
you need to set "wifi_country_code=JP" in the "secure" table in the following database:
"/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db".
(It may be easily done with RootExplorer and SQLite editor installed).
Also, it may help for 5GHz .11n too, by default (for USA) very few channels are available,
Most channels in .11n become active with EU code in the field above.
And, there is no need to reboot the phone after change - just switch WiFi off/on!

In my case there is no .db file
But it's a Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) of course...
