here is a REAL FIX, NOT WORK-AROUND for the "obtaining ip address" loop without setting static ip address.
i found this myself, by examining error log dump, logbox, which for me was showing "E/dhcpcd ( 7097): / system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks: Permission denied"
system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks needs to have permissions fixed to "execute" by "user" "group" and "others" by using your favorite file explorer
this will fix your "obtaining ip address loop" without having to ever use static ip address
or at least it did mine.
