Ok looks like i found a flaw. Might just be my internet but it can't pick up Wifi everything else seems to be ok.

It searches for an ip address for ages, authenticates then saves but then searches for an address again.

I had that issue too. Don't worry, it's totally fixable to some extent.

Essentially, just go into the Wi-Fi Settings and (where you enter a network key), tick the Advanced Options box and find the menu (it'll say DHCP by default) that allows you to switch between a static or dynamic IP address. Select 'Static'.

Then enter the IP address you want to assign your device. In my case, it's on a 192.168.0.x network. This may change depending on what router you own. If you want to have a general idea, you can check by (on Windows) pressing the Windows Key + R and typing "Cmd". In the Command Prompt, typing "ipconfig /all". This will give you any necessary information you need.

Enter an IP address on your phone that doesn't conflict with anything on your current network. And add the IP address of your router (gateway).

Add the appropriate DNS servers (it's all in "ipconfig /all")

This should get you on to the WiFi network. I know it sure as hell worked for me!

Just so you know, the Network Prefix length by default will be /24. This is equivalent to the subnet mask 255.255.255.0.


By the looks of things, it looks like this software is having trouble recognising DHCP. Fun times.

Otherwise, it works pretty damn well.

I'm gonna go have a look around. See if I can fix DHCP on my handset. If I can, I'll totally post it ;). There's a few Wi-Fi networks I use fairly often, and I really don't want to have to bother with this crap every single time. I'm sure nobody else enjoys assigning static IP addresses to phones either.

You're welcome. I suspect there's an issue with DHCP in this ROM. While this fix gives us temporary relief, it may become problematic in the future when we want to connect to maybe a public Wi-Fi spot or the Wi-Fi at a friend or family member's place.

I've tried many suggested fixes, but am still encountering issues with obtaining an IP address assigned by DHCP.

By the looks of things, it appears to be a common flaw with some Touchwiz ICS ROMs. Mainly amongst S2 users. It's more of an inconvenience than anything mission-critical luckily.

/sigh. Even when taking a break from assessment work for a Networking course, I end up with problems that relate directly to the course itself. It must be a curse.

Mind you, this is definitely a nice ROM for this handset, despite the slight issue with wireless networking. Hell, I don't have to jump through hoops to toggle 4G on and off (switch to 3G). May be able to save a nice bit of battery that way.

haha, yeah I'm doing a networking & programming course at the minute so I know how you feel!
I'll probably rip all the bloatware out of this over the weekend. I never use any of that "Kies" or "Mini Diary" stuff.

Heh. I've nearly finished my Diploma. Then off to uni. For more study. And rake in more student fees.

And yeah, I think I'll probably go through this ROM and remove some of the unnecessary Samsung bloat too. There's a few things here and there that I just never used back when I had Gingerbread and never have any intention of using.

Hi Guys,

This Wifi bug is due to the ICS change to /system/bin/wpa_supplicant which is unstable.

I have attached a Wifi_fix which is to be applied through CWM which will downgrade the wpa_supplicant to as it was in Gingerbread 2.3.5 resolving this issue.

As always make a nandroid backup before applying this patch.

Regards,
Scott

Yeah. I think I might go back to my backup of Sky-ICS. At least for now. The Camera is kind of an app I use fairly often.

Mind you, I actually quite liked what I saw of the 4.0.4 GT-I9210 ROM. It's definitely smooth as all hell.

Oh right. I totally forgot about that for a second. Yeah I'll go download something like that.

Also gonna download that Wi-Fi fix. See how that goes.

EDIT: Okay, I flashed that Wi-Fi fix. Doesn't seem to be working for me.

Hi Nek,

I'm currently using Embryo 5.4 ICS 4.0.4 and this wifi fix has worked prefect.

This should work because that issue is ICS wide...

I dunno. I flashed it on my device and still had the Wi-Fi issue on my handset. Sky-ICS (with 4.0.4) works fine without those fixes. But stock 4.0.4 doesn't seem to like it on my handset.

it is not released becouse i decided to skip the 1.8.0 release and will go straight to the 1.8.1 wich is already done and in testing!

the blackscreen is the result of drastical changes in CM10, anyway 1.8.x Kernels work again with latest cm10

EDIT: Download Thread Updated with latest CM10 Kernel v1.8.1 !!

enjoy

    Ok Guys

    As we had a realy long delay between updates now, caused by a lot issues we got while getting CM10.1 to run.
    The last weeks realy got anyoing while i focused new issues each day.
    like the anoying in-call-audio issue (people present on irc know what i'm talking about)

    I have several weeks of work in patching, merging and fixing behind me.
    And finaly can say we have a build up and running wich could be called "stable" or "dayly driver".

    the past was also a hard time for some Testers like Sfynx and oc74ne also nutterpc on irc,
    i want to say thank you again for all your bugreports/testing/patient etc !!
    Also big thx to teamchopsticks for support on irc!

    Finaly i'm proud to announce the first stable and public CM10.1 Build for the GT-I9210T.
    Also we have a stable Custom Kernel avaible for CM10.1 wich offers Overclocking/Undervolting and some other nice tweaks.

    Both Downloads the ROM and Kernel can be found on my Download Thread/Download Center wich is already updated!
    Also i have added latest TWRP Recovery release to the thread i'm suggesting everyone to update!

    I hope u enjoy the hard work we have done over the last weeks and respect it as well!

    best regards :)

    Here's the link to my JB4.1.2 ROM. It's rooted, deodexed and has busybox and custom boot animations installed. I've debloated it a bit, could do with some more though. While I say 'my' JB4.1.2 it's really just the i727 ROM from Sammobile with a custom kernel that has been compiled for our devices and some other tweaks as listed.

    You don't need to install the Kernel separately if your using my ROM.

    It appears to be working well, though you'll need to make sure that you're running the latest baseband (LP4). Chances are you'll have between no carrier and intermittent carrier problems if you run with LP3, not sure about anything below that. Had a real bugger of a time finding a RIL/modem combination that worked.

    I'm using TWRP from Tallastus's download page to install, 2.4.3 I think. It installs it OK but has problems creating backups.

    Make sure you wipe system, data and cache.

    First boot takes a while so be patient, under 5 mins on my phone though if you're wondering. If it sits on the blue samsung screen that might be a problem, reboot and see what happens. If it's sitting on the boot animation then wait, should take about 90-120 seconds.

    I'm not forcing you to install it - it works perfectly well on my phone and I've flashed it 30 times in the past few days with no problems - doesn't mean it'll work for you. If you have any problems I will try to help but it's your responsibility not mine. BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP

    Hope someone finds it useful
