Did everything as per list. The only concern I had was when flashing the EFSv2 it gives 4 baseband options, I Tried with the first.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
Given that you downloaded the XXELLA_XXELLB firmware provided above and that you did every step, then my theory is sadly wrong :( :crying:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
Yeah I was excited to try something, thanks for the effort unfortunately with my configuration it doesn't seem to work, others should still try it.

It just seems so strange that wifi is reflected correctly, signal strength etc. but authentication doesn't work, and its not really even an authentication problem as the problem exists with an open network too.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
I think wifi problem is related to wifi module. Because not just i9300 with this problem. Altough nexus device still has wifi problem. I think its google fault, there's something mistake with their lollpop source code maybe. I DON'T KNOW. just my opinion.

#sorry for my bad english
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
One thing I have noticed, I have a mac address for the wifi, but there is no file in /efs/wifi, do I just create a file? and what permissions must this file have. thanks. :good:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
well i have a /efs/wifi/.mac.info file

and the folder has rwxrwxr-x permissions
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jesus_c:
It must not :)

I flashed omni over 4.3 FW and use it for long time

On Monday I flashed nameless 4.4.4 over omni (with data/cache/system wipe)

And nameless 5.0 over 4.4.4 (same wipe)

WiFi is ok for me

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
then this might be really true!!!

lollipop source has something wrong with WiFi drivers

i feel so sorry for people with WiFi problems!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
Found this on youtube. But i don't know to do that. Maybe someone with wifi problem can do this procedure.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cornelha:
I am using I9300XXEMG4 Modem, Wifi is working perfectly on my side. You should not write to /efs at all, this could corrupt your efs partition. My suggestion is to try a few different modems. For me this has been by far the most stable modem for my device. Another thing you need to look at, the protected and open networks, are they using the same router or even the brand of router? In my experience, some routers are more equal than others, we have had to pull out netgear routers at some clients and d-link at others on different devices. My network is open, but I am able to connect to a protected network also.

Make a backup of your efs partition before flashing a new modem. Check for a modem which has a release for your country, this will ensure that your data and phone calls work correctly.

Go Go Go !!!!

and if the zip failed, then type this

echo semcosh > /data/.cid.info
chown system /data/.cid.info
chgrp wifi /data/.cid.info
chmod 0660 /data/.cid.info

of course after granting SU permissions in terminal emulator

after typing this command, DO NOT RESTART THE PHONE

just turn the WiFi off and then turn it on again..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
when I install I noticed,

"mount: failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 at /data: device or resource busy"

But after that nameless installs and works, just wondering if it is connected to the EFS issue.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
Did you try this? Working?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
Not working. ..
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
the zip or the commands??
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
Yeah, still not working
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
Both, 2 days ago, I had the zip already, I was the one who pointed it to Justarchi for 4.4.2 wifi solution. It worked there,but here I think is something else.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
Does anyone try it to change the WiFi channel on the root bellow 12? like 6 or 9?

Who have WiFi working, can you tell what is your modem?

thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
i see we reached a dead end

we have tried every possible solution for WiFi

even we tried to downgrade to 4.1.2 and still there are people who can not connect

Now the last thing we have to do is to install your previous ROM and see if WiFi working or not

For example, people who have the 4.1.2 installed and then installed nameless ROM, can you cleanly install your previous ROM? In my case it is ArchiDroid.

Just roll back to your previous ROM (recommended to cleanly re-install it, not through backup!)

and see if the WiFi is working or not

If not working, try to flash the WiFi-fix,zip from my previous post

and see

if not working yet, delete /system/etc/init.d/91fixwifi and reboot then type the command in the previous post, restart the WiFi and test it.

:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
I tried both
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
then may be it is due to channel level ? like stated for nexus users?

thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ary_evo:
After I tried many times still can not connect, but I try to get closer to the portable wifi around a distance of 1 meter then connected. So the problem is that the wifi signal reception can not be far from the wifi. If you are simply curious to try it yourself, I'm sure there are breaking it, hopefully can help, thank you, sorry I'm using google translate ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lopiop:
been following this thread for a while, im not sure why you guys would think reflashing stock rom would fix wifi issues. not only is it a chore to do that, but yeah you get my point. remember this is still an alpha based port, so just have patience people, let the devs deal with the technical issues
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
Also tried that, also changed my router, danced ancient rain dances, voodoo remedys, prayed to all gods...

Nothing !!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
If I go back to previous rom wifi works again.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
lol
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
My bad, went back to previous 4.4.4 rom and wifi is broken
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
I always go back to my default ROM and everything works flawless.

If you have problems its because you flashed another kernel or modem :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
Mine :

After install nameless and wifi not working. I just restore my previous backup rom. And wifi work fine.

Also try flash stock 4.3 na5. wifi work too. Then try install nameless again, damn wifi still didn't work. And last restore my previous backup rom again and wifi work.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
so WiFi only breaks when using this newest ALPHA right ?

okay investigating....

meanwhile can you tell me what is written in /data/.cid.info ? (if it is present)

looks like the command and the zip works only for android versions up to 4.3 (cm 10.2) and after that it is not working!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] romica22:
Best battery life since stock 4.1.2 rom. Everything is working : wifi, data, etc. Great work from developer.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lil Geeky:
I can guess that who got bootloops/ wifi not working got their phone from factory with 4.3 *like me* I 'm right ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
Hum maybe its that problem :D

i'm using XXUGMK6.

Maybe later i try flash that modem and think it will be solved :D:D

Dumb question: how to take a screenshot on Lollipop? I'm used to take it with a quick settings tile...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Thin_Bezel:
Power + Volume down button.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mimmo13:
I have a note 2 but the wifi problem is the same. I thought that my wifi did not work, but I have discovered that wifi works only At this distance from the router. So the problem is only in poor signal reception.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] caioketo:
Any date to release an update with all the fixs??
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
Don't ask that please
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] senaferdy79:
edited : i didn't see the post above me
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
Yes, my wifi just break with lollipop rom. (Try arter cm12 with wifi fixed too, and wifi also didn't work).

Mine data/.cid.info contain "murata". And it's same like on srockroom/anything rom with "wifi work". Also check efs/wifi/.wifi.info it's contain my wifi mac address same on other rom with "wifi work".

Annoying !!!!! I thing this is purely google fault. -.-
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
it can't because lots of people here have this working :(

I think its modem fault, i'm testing right now
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Eleve11:
Been rolling on the latest Alpha for 24 hrs now.

I really think that the S3 have a bright future of Lollipop in front of it. Some minor hickups here and there like freezes and graphical glitches. But I haven't really stumbled upon any issues that keeps me from using it as a daily driver.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] BobderDritte:
I am using XXUGNA8 woking fine for me
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
please can you link me to that modem?

ive try it with UBUGNG1 and nothing :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] BobderDritte:
I used the newest liquid smooth rom kitkat before ... a friend of mine used the same rom and has also no problems .. maybe its worth to try ...

sorry guimenez I dont know when I flashed this modem and why and when .. but i guess it was in 2013 .. I will check my android links in chrome .. maybe its one of them ...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Guimenez:
Thanks, i've try your modem buts its the same, WIFI save but can't connect :(
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Zwulf:
Doesn't work. Thanks anyway.

Will manage that later [MENTION=5060769]Mostafa Wael[/MENTION].

(Have to work now)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
try to cleanly flash the 20141114 alpha nameless 5.0

and see if the WiFi bug persists

if it works, then the problem is caused partially by this

which means Google's fault of lollipop builds and it is the same WiFi bug that some nexus users have

if still does not work, then it is a black magic!

oh just a quick notice:

previous build 20141114 had a smoother UI

for example when you open the recents app switcher and swipe a window, you will find it a bit laggy while swiping any one of them

anybody notices that?

[MENTION=2875964]dhiru1602[/MENTION] can you explain why ART checkers tells us we are running on the dead

DALVIK!!!!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lil Geeky:
some screenshots from files you requested and in status bar you see ! in wifi and mobile data seems like its problem with the system it self not wifi or router related
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
Google forgot to rename the folder to ART, it's already mentioned and they will fix it in next lollipop release
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lcrponte:
The exclamation mark (!) just indicates that you don't have an internet connection, be it a system problem, a router problem or just a bad cell network connection.

[MENTION=5060769]Mostafa Wael[/MENTION]

I am quite sure now, that wifi problem is not related to firmware! Since many users having 4.3 firmware have reported wifi to be working!

The terminal command lines won't work,i had already provided them in back pages of this thread!

Now I've posted this article before too but nobody noticed! i request devs to take a look at it! It might be nothing but i think it's worth a shot!

http://blog.josefsson.org/2014/08/10/wifi-on-s3-with-replicant/ (***Read the article post terminal commands***)

Hopefully we'll together find fix for the WiFi!

Cheers! :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] GeryPf:
Regarding the ARTs checker:

It is happening on all Lollipop roms, the "ART Checker" Application is not Lollipop ready and reports wrong results.

Just type "ART checker" lollipop into google to see it :) - it is happening on the Nexus devices with Google-Updates also
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
yeah sadly there is nothing helping

will take a look at that article for sure

sorry for overlooking it :o

---------- Post added at 02:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

mine is vfat 16 GB sd card
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] lcrponte:
First of all, is not talking about a folder. He's talking about an app named ArtChecker. And no, I'm not saying that the app is right even! :P Then, it isn't anywhere stated that it'll be corrected in the next lollipop release. And yeah, I'm not saying that it'll be or it'll not be, just saying that you have to state the real facts and not something that comes from your pure mind.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Thin_Bezel:
Hey doods,

I haven't been reading the thread these few past days (work). I've installed the ROM, downloaded SuperSU from the Play Store but it doesn't open. Any idea?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
YAYYYY!!!! got wireless !!!!!!!

Installed the last baseband on EFSv2 and put my phone on top of the router, set to 2.4GHZ only, turn wireless off and back on again, it connected and is staying connected even when I move my phone away from the router. be aware I have tried every method of getting my wireless working, this is exactly what I did and its just working, one other thing not sure if related, I never installed supersu this time, just clean install of latest nameless and then above.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
Which modem ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
may be you can try this and tell what's going on??
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
That sucks, even though wireless is connected there is no data throughput unless the phone is sitting on top of the router, then wireless works perfectly, if I disconnect and move away from the router it goes back to saved. If I put my phone back on top of the router it connects to the internet again.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dreamaddict:
Flash the super su zip from first post and flash
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lil Geeky:
WTF thats weird i put my device up the router and connected it and it just worked fine and now i have wifi and mobile data working O.o thats weird
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
I used baseband labled MJ3, but I would first literally put your phone on top of your wireless router/access point and see if it connects.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Thin_Bezel:
Which version of SuperSU have you installed?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tokict:
Try this too. Try with four different modem it's na8,nd1,nb1,and mg4. And the result is same, my wifi says connected when i put my phone up the router (with internet working). of course its still connected when i bring my phone away from the router. But its just say connected and i can't acces internet anymore (wifi connected, but internet not working) So its just connected and the internet really working when i put the phone up the router.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
I ve noticed that even on top of router ,the second that is says connecting if you press it, says "bad signal" even if the WiFi bars shows full. So maybe is true what some mentioned, has to do with the signal reception, or not all s3 has same wifi hardware
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
I wonder if the 5GHZ guys are having the same problem?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
It is working ! Just leave mobile data on, go on top of router, turn wifi on, and the miracle happens !!!!

But don't walk away. . So bring your coffee close! !!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lil Geeky:
i have same as you 2.4 Ghz and speed weak even if the device up the router but when i go away it lose signal
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] sp1ice69:
My phone says excellent signal on the router.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
so it is literally due to different WiFi hardware

semcosh --> no problems

murata --> connecting problems but get higher signal

that is the bottom line ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lil Geeky:
here too full bars but speed weak download/upload
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
do you have the same problem on previous build ??

it is worth to try

i suspect the "updated to latest sources" thing

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jasi275:
about the modem why not try the modem of the region/country you live in.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
yes

try to dirty flash it

if encountered problems like bootloop or random reboots, then clean install it

and remember to switch the WiFi on

directly after boot up
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] george stamatos:
The bottom line is: 1/ we buy a HUGE router with giant antenna 2/ we attach the router to our s3 with a very long cable

3/ we wait for a dev fix....
