Initially, it was assumed to be an issue with the ROM, however, users then noticed that the same issue was noticed across numerous other ROMs as well. So why is this happening and more importantly how can you rectify it? Let’s find out.
Why is WiFi Not Working?
According to XDA Recognized Developer Simon1511, here’s the reason for the WiFi issue:
The firmware responsible for WiFi is tied to the device’s bootloader version. That means that the WiFi firmware from, for example, firmware version A528BXXS6FXA4 with RP rev 6, will not work on a device with firmware version A528BXXU3EWE1 (RP rev 3) and vice versa. The same thing applies for different device variants. A528B firmware will not load successfully on the A528N model and vice versa. Therefore all firmware versions for all device variants need to be supported by the ROM to have WiFi working on every device. This zip adds support for all firmware versions.
