My WiFi does not work in Sony Ericsson My Sony Ericsson X8's wifi has stopped working about a few weeks after rooting and installing the GingerDX v030.

Even though it is turned on and scanning, it does not connect to any WiFi.

I have tried rebooting, and also resetting the WiFi antenna (i.e., either by turning it off then on, or by switching to airplane mode and then back out of it).

I have to use the stock kernel otherwise the phone hard bricks.
Alright, I have managed to solve the problem by looking at some XDA forums.

Basically summarized here: -


Go into the WiFi settings.
Long press a remembered WiFi.
Select Forget All Networks. You might need to do it a few times.
Press the leftmost button (the one with literally four squares) to bring up a bottom menu.
Touch Scan.
Voila! WiFi working again!


The only drawback is that you need to grab passwords for each one of them again. :-(
