I already wrote it in the HyperOs stable thread but seems nobody really reply as I guess nobody experience it, hopefully here someone have any idea...
Basically I was on Xiaomi.eu Stable Miui 14, when I saw the HyperOS stable out I made the upgrade using TWRP (the A13 Twrp I had...) after install I saw some errors in the end but I ignored and just continued... HyperOS was booted successfully but no WiFi, I went to TWRP again and noticed it already changed it to the A14 twrp, I tried reflash the HyperOS, still no WiFi.... Tried reflash using fastboot method, still no WiFi....
checking adb logs would show :

(When pressing to turn on the WiFI)

Any idea how to solve it without going on the format data route as it would be a nightmare for me, for now I handle my self without WiFi but it sucks alot.. ;(
 
Do you have a Mi 11 Pro or Ultra?
Some users have been reported wifi issues because overheating in hardware. Moreover, some devices died suddenly because of that. I had a Mi 11 Pro two years ago, and it died after upgrading ROM.
 
Having MI11 Ultra, I'm pretty sure it's no way hardware issue as WiFi was completely fine before I made this upgrade to HyperOS..
from log it looks like it cant load wifi driver due to something that missing?

my last resort would be to format and go back to miui14 just to verify but I'm pretty confident that there is no chance hardware failed at the same moment I made the upgrade ;/
 
I hope you can solve this problem. Please report here, I also have a Mi 11 Ultra now, and I need some feedback before updating from MIUI14 Stable to HyperOS.
 
Updating... well seems no Rom issue, I did full format and installed fastboot stable china rom miui14, still no wifi... I guess really in the same moment I made the upgrade something destroyed the wifi connection as you said ;-(
 
I have the same issue after upgrade to 1.0.9 on my 14 Ultra, everything else works fine, do you have mobile data?

Yes mobile data is okay, only WiFi, I think if I read correctly for your MI14 models issue is with the modem and something like that, here unfortunatly it's probably hardware as I tried reformat to miui 14 and nothing..
 
That's bad, im using my 11 Ultra as Backup right now, but still on miui 14, so not updated yet.

Can you see the WiFi and it says can't connect?

Sent from my Mi 11 Ultra.

You would try to turn it on and it wont do anything, hotspot would say error, at first I thought it's something that went wrong during the upgrade so after hard decision I format data of everything and reverted to miui 14 with fastboot china files to make sure to rollout for sure any software issue, and same issue there..

CPU/soc can reach high temp when flashing in TWRP .
Probably that's when the wifi gets damaged or desoldered.

Same problem on mi 10 ultra, tried switch from Randomization MAC to Hardware MAC and it works again.
