Wi-Fi not working on msm8916 (ufi100c) with Linux 7.0 — wcn36xx loads but wlan0 stays DOWN
I compiled a Linux 7.0 kernel for my msm8916‑based device (ufi100c), but the system cannot detect any Wi‑Fi networks. When using Linux 6.18 everything works normally.
From the dmesg output, the wcn36xx driver and firmware appear to load correctly, but wlan0 remains in the DOWN state and cannot be brought UP. Scanning returns no results.
Here is the relevant dmesg log:
dmesg | grep -v 'audit'

Wi-Fi not working on msm8916 (ufi100c) with Linux 7.0 — wcn36xx loads but wlan0 stays DOWN
I compiled a Linux 7.0 kernel for my msm8916‑based device (ufi100c), but the system cannot detect any Wi‑Fi networks. When using Linux 6.18 everything works normally.
From the dmesg output, the wcn36xx driver and firmware appear to load correctly, but wlan0 remains in the DOWN state and cannot be brought UP. Scanning returns no results.
Here is the relevant dmesg log:
