[SOLVED] wifi problem with 4.002.14 stock rom and liquid s100

[Guest Riekr]

hi all,

frustrated by all the small bugs found in many custom roms i decided to switch to a stock rom, root and customize as needed.

by now i'm on 4.002.14.EMEA.GEN1_A22F_A_256_bin rooted with malez recovery 0.6.1 method 2, removed all acer apps and updated/restored all packages with titanium backup. i'm happy right now but i can't get wifi to work:

if enable wifi it stays on few seconds then turns off automatically saying (in italian) unable to scan networks.

dmesg output when turning wifi on (and waiting for it to auto off) says:

i already tried uninstalling all wifi related apps and replace contents of /system/etc/wifi with the contents (for example) of lcr-f 1.0 taking care of file permissions withouth any change.

since keeping the same bin with roggin cm6.1 and lcr-f 1.1.2 wifi was working, does anyone have a clue on how to fix it? may be i uninstalled some acer app needed to be kept?

Thanks in advance and happy new year :(

Could you provide a logcat too when you activate WiFi ?

solved by reinstalling the bin, it seems that something went wrong at the first try ^^'
