WiFix - Fixes regional Wi-Fi problems in Android 4.0

[fardjad]

New version again

Change log:
Added custom country code support

Now you can set custom country codes in WiFix Manager, obviously you should update both WiFix Manager and WiFix.

Changed something in Recovery Flashable version, hope it works on 4EXT now. Someone please confirm this.

Thx man, you're the best

p.s. the check for update says version 1.2, shouldn't it be 1.3 ?

You're welcome

No! WiFix is different from WiFix Manager, the former latest version is 1.2 and the latter is 1.3.

WiFix can be updated from WiFix Manager but WiFix Manager should be updated manually by user (I wanted to publish this App on Android Market but I decided not to do so for some reasons).

If you want to set custom country codes, you should upgrade WiFix Manager as well.

Hi. I have a rooted and unlocked HTC Desire HD (not yet S-OFF) and I have flashed the latest IceColdSandwich rom on it. Everything works fine except for wifi, which turned out to be a common problem for Ice Cream Sandwich.

I found the Wifix app and installed the latest version. Changed the country code to EU (I'm in The Netherlands, so maybe I should use NL or DU? Both don't work btw.). So nothing happens and I wonder why? Is there something I missed? Could I try something else? Really can't live without my wifi

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure how this Developer Unlock thing works (maybe you need to S-OFF). Just make sure you have write access on your /system directory.

Sometimes you need to invoke WiFix manually by dialing *#WIFIX#.

Hope this helps

Hmm, no luck. Each time I try turning wifi on it says 'Wifi inschakelen' or turning on wifi in English. Nothing happens. Should I wait until it does something or is it suppose to connect in a few seconds?

Anything else I could try?

Turn off WiFi.
Restart your device.
Dial *#WIFIX# (and press the call button.)
Wait about 10 seconds.
Go to Settings/WiFi and check if it finds networks.
If not, try with different country codes (US works with most of the SIM-Cards.)

If it didn't fix the issue then, try removing the SIM-Card and see if it finds networks (if so, report here.)
If not, then sorry there might be other problems with your device/rom/configurations that this application can't fix.

Well, I took a drastic measure and downgraded my phone and rooted it again with the Advanced Hack Kit. Flashed IceColdSandwich over it and voila! A great working rom with wifi! Woohoo! Thanks for your help.

[sohrab1985]

Thank you so much.
Works great on my Galaxy tab 7 running CM9.
I'm on CM9 for a while now and I've been struggling to make both GSM and Wifi work at the same time but I had no luck.
Now, thanks to you the problem is solved.
Thank you very very very much.

Wi-fi tethering..!!

Description

I recently found out many people in certain countries no matter what kinds of devices they're using, have issues with WiFi when SIM-Card is inserted.

I searched a little bit and realized that changing the Wifi country code in Secure system settings should solve the problem and finally made an APK for doing so automatically on phone boot and network state change events.



For ROM Cookers

By placing WiFix.apk into /system/app folder you'll have a WiFix enabled ROM.
If you're publishing that ROM, please include a link to this thread
WiFix.apk can be downloaded here.

I am really sorry for asking stupid question... but Please try to help me...

I have flashed IceCreamTosti 0.7a everything works fine... thanks to the cooker...

The only problem I face is... Wi-Fi Tethering... I am able to connect my phone to my PC... My PC shoews connected to My phone. The only problem is I am not able to connect internet on my PC... using my phone as wi-fi tether.

Help me ASAP. Thanks.
