I've been reading up on this WiFi issue and it seems to be a common problem on cyanogen mods ROMs. I noticed that in the WiFi settings the region code is set to europe. Well in phones with a sim card WiFi will not function unless its set to the right region. When I change it to US it reverts back to Europe when you exit the WiFi settings. I've tried a whole bunch of fixes but none of them took. Maybe this is the problem and someone with more experience could be of more help.

BTW I know boost doesn't use sim cards... but still it could be the problem

wifi region code? never heard of it but ill look it up
ok well boost uses sims of a sort... lte uses uim. dont see how it would be set or how it would be unchangable though. if someone wants to look into possible fixes for that itd be great but i think the issue lies deeper considering it wont even turn on. it just wouldnt connect id assume but it would be able to turn on i would think. i could be wrong though so test it out

I never heard of it either until I saw it in the WiFi settings on cm10 lol. Over on xda a few of the WiFi issues were because of that very same problem. Something about editing the sdext in init.d d fixed one. Idk I'm relatively inexperienced when it comes to that stuff. I'm more of a follow the directions extremely carefully kinda guy.

This is a late post, but I figured I'd wait it out, and just try to wait for a pattern, or if it's just a temporary fluke. CM10 isn't allowing me to send messages at times. But, being in the same exact place, switching to DroidSmith, I have no problems. Plus, the 3G is iffy. I don't get texts for a while, and I also can't send texts at times. But, the second I shoot over to DroidSmith, everything works perfectly fine. It's been happening for the longest time now, and it's definite not a fluke. It's definitely CM10. redownloading, re-installing from zip...it's just been a big waste of time, cause it's not fixing the problem...
Any ideas?

DroidSmith is just a modified version of the stock rom, so for that rom everything worked out of the box. CM10 is built from CM source code and proprietary software, so some adjustments will have to be made to it before its 100% working. Its a work in progress hince the term WIP.
To help the project along Junkie needs detailed information from several users. If you want to help out read up on how to use logcat. That way instead of simply saying something doesn't work, you can provide information as to why it doesn't.

Oh, no. I'm afraid of learning new things! haha, I'll have a go at it when I get a free chance sometime tomorrow.

well without a test unit or an internet connection to my computer thats not gonna help much. i cant upload test builds regularly so unless i get a known working fix there wont be an update, and without a way to know if fixes are working its kinda stuck

I'm going to attempt to build cm10 based off of your device tree this weekend. I've got a working unit, so I hope we can collaborate a bit

well i will certainly still help where i can. if you guys can build it i can suggest things to try but my capabilities are very limited. at this point my only real theories are that it could be a kernel issue though if matrix kernel works there is no reason this shouldnt. the ramdisk should be right so as far as i can tell the boot.img has everything correct but you never know. the only theory left after that is very broad... there is something missing or more likely the wrong version of something in place. by version i mean it should be the file pulled from stock instead of the one being built by cm or even the opposite, could be using the one from stock when what we need is the one cm builds. youll have to go through file by file and figure it out
my suggestion to make that easier is to make cm build all wifi stuff. that will require modification of the device_aurora.mk then onve you have cm with all wifi libs and binaries you can start tossing things in. use other devices with similar wifi chips as a template to decide what you think is necessary, and use logcat and dmesg to see what makes errors change and what errors are linked to what files. its basically just a matter of figuring out the right combination as far as i can tell, it just takes alot of trial and error which i cant do without the ability to test

I went through all the Wi-Fi and wlan files and from what I could tell, they were all set to US region. Its also set to US region in the build.prop. so it seems that the problem is something else.

well the issue according to the logcat was that it couldnt find some /dev/net/wlan0/ip6/whatever kind of file. so im assuming that its the .ko module not being properly loaded or maybe a binary not being the right one or something like that. something isnt setting up the wifi devices file structure properly

I tried this mostly for learning purposes. I like it a lot only wish the Wi-Fi worked. Good job so far guys. thanks for the hard work!

Doesnt the Force have BCM4330 Wifi and Bluetooth ?
Also. it has the same sensors as the war sequent "which has a 4.1.2 stock update"
iam sure you can probably use the sensors.default.so hal from it,
if not. use my libsensors hal from the OG Warp. and edit it for MMA and such. it will get the AKM8962 Working.
