Okay, I achieved something. I'm able to activate WiFi now (using moduled driver and patch for this bug: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17255&q=wifi%20loop&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars)
But after 10-20 seconds it gets deactivated again. In logcat I found this line: E/WifiHW ( 1021): Unable to open connection to supplicant on "/data/ system/wpa_supplicant/wlan0": No such file or directory What could that possibly mean?
