Very Simple!
Sometimes all it needs is a reflash ;)

Re: no wifi
 
you changed your case; that's the problem surely...you must have done something with the hw...in that case i don't think there is a software fix...

Re: no wifi
 
Hi, I have an N9 16GB & it doesn't show any available WIFI networks where as my Nokia E71shows me 5.
Above you mentioned to type that code into terminal. May i ask what is terminal?
Is it Flasher?
:confused:

What is terminal?
Is it Win flasher?
:confused:
Same problem with me, my E72 detects 5 available WiFi networks while my N9 doesn't detect anything.

Activate developer mode from the setting, it will install needed packages, also terminal. Open terminal, write: devel-su then press enter, write root pass, default is: rootme. When you type it you CAN'T see this, just type and press enter. After this run command that mentioned above..

I tried th above command but i get a message to continue i press y to continue then it says "could not resolve host" "unable to fetch some archives" , maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix missing?

What to do?

Do you have 3G? If not I don't see any other way.

I opened terminal & wrote devel-su password rootme, then i did apt-get install osso-wlan --reinstall, it asked me for confirmation & I confirmed.
it reinstalled wlan but still wifi not scanning. Then i did
apt-get update -f, it updated everything 'desktoip entries or something" but still problem is there. Wifi is not scanning.
Please tell me what to do?

pichlo 2013-05-27 18:03

Re: no wifi
 
thedead1440 said it in post #10. It looks like a hardware problem indeed. If it is scanning but nolt finding then the logic part is working, the problem is in the RF part. Disconnected/broken antenna, perhaps?

amaru71237 2013-05-27 18:30

Re: no wifi
 
What should i do?
:(

amaru71237 2013-05-27 18:32

Re: no wifi
 
I don't think its scanning because all it shows is packet data or hidden wifi.

amaru71237 2013-05-27 18:34

Re: no wifi
 
Should i try this apt-get install osso-wlan -- reinstall through win flasher?

willi6868 2013-05-27 20:15

Re: no wifi
 
@amaru71237 first you open your terminal and type

Code:

devel-su
apt-get update -f

After the process finished type

Code:

apt-get install osso-wlan -- reinstall
Then mark the text (should be already enabled if not enable it in the upper right corner in terminal) in terminel and please copy the whole output and post it here. :)

Also you should reboot your N9 and just restart your rooter.

I did the above but still its not detecting networks.
Ps: sorry i cant post input as i am online from computer because my n9's data package is limited.
Do you have another idea?
Should i heat the n9 using a hairdryer so it might reheat the wifi chip or something.

There are so many possibilities... SSH (Putty).. create a note and copy it to your computer later...

Still no wifi, what next?

Re: no wifi
 
Thx the output seems to be ok. :)

You say your N9 is not able to find 5 Wifis?! Did you already try to power off your N9 and push and hold the power key for at least 10 seconds?!

To eliminate a software fault you should flash your N9..

Yes i did that, it is not not detecting any wifis anywhere?
Not a single wifi is being detected?

Should i reheat it using hairdryer?

No, first u should flash your N9 to be sure it is (maybe) just a software fault. ;)

How to flash your N9 (also flash emmc to be sure):

Edit: I think you know that you will loose your data by flashing emmc..?! So backup your data first. :D

Re: no wifi
 
Another simple way to show output WITHOUT internet on the phone:
Create simple .txt file in MyDocs -> copy your output from terminal to this file -> transfer .txt file to your PC via usb cable...

Also before reflashing, try to run this command as root:
Code:

/sbin/initctl restart xsession/icd2
or

one-line command:
Code:

/sbin/initctl stop xsession/icd2 && sleep 3 && /sbin/initctl start xsession/icd2
It will restart your internet connections...
