I usually dont start new posts, i try to post in the OP's thread and search but beings Fascinate is new their isnt much help or info to search for :confused:

i flashed CWR Using ODIN 2 days ago and ever since i dont have WIFI. when i turn it on it says scanning and then comes up with a message saying Unable to Scan For WIFI and then it Turns Wifi Off before i can even attempt to manually enter my SSID and WEP key


i know in the Early days back on the G1 you would always have to run Fix_permissions which i have tried and sometimes manually run command prompt to get stuff like this back working again but im not sure what to do :mad:

I know this is an older thread, but I recently had this issue randomly happen to me and found an answer in another xda forum and figured I'd share what I found:

Just thought i'd say thank you for this post. Suddenly my wifi stopped working and was telling me it was unable to scan, and I was trying to figure out what the hell was going on because I hadn't flashed anything recently... Then I just happened to come across this post. I deleted that file in /data/wifi and rebooted, and suddenly it worked again. You just saved me a lot of time.. my next step was to re-flash the dl09 radio because I had tried various other possible solutions with not luck, and had ran out of ideas. Then I came here not even looking for a solution, just looking for anything new that might've popped up, and saw this.

So, in summary of this unnecessarily long post...
thanks, and it worked.
