no bluetooth - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i cant turn on bluetooht it thinks and then doesnt start.
i had been running CM7 rc1 when i noticed so i nandroided back to villain rom 0.9 where it also didnt work, i flashed starburst rom still no bluetooth
tried flashing different kernels from the villain rom i had. -- no luck,
then realised that its down to radios so i tried reflashing the latest radio and RIL, still no bluetooth.
i have now flash a radio which is a few older but still no bluetooth.
could this be to do with the data2ext which i have recently started using?
anyone know how to rectify this?

[Q] Bluetooth connectivity

Hey everyone,
So I have been having problems connecting my evo to my bluetooth fm transmitter for my car (I can't post links yet, but it is on amazon, the gogroove flexsmart x2) ever since I switched from cm6.1.2 to miui 12.31. The transmitter was working perfectly, and my phone would pair and connect to it flawlessly, however, when I switched to miui, it didn't work at all. It would just not connect, no matter what I did. So I tried switching kernels around, and none of them worked (I tried about 3 kernels on cyanogen before I switched to miui, and switching didn't cause any issues). So I decided to go back to cyanogen, yet my bluetooth didn't work when I restored to a nandroid backup. Bluetooth still wasn't working. So then I went into clockwork and wiped my data/cache and installed the latest cm6 and bluetooth worked. Excited, I installed all of my applications, got my settings right, and installed a different kernel. When I switched kernels to try out a savage one, my bluetooth wouldn't connect. Nothing would work to bring that back, so I deleted my data/cache again and got it to work. Everything worked fine, but I wanted a different kernel, so I tried putting on snap 7.6, and it won't work anymore. I am not entirely sure what to do. I can re-install cm6 by clearing my data/cache, but I want to know why I can't use any other kernels that worked previously. Any suggestions?
Recently, I posted on cyanogen forums, and someone said to use Calkulin's format all zip as well as clear davlik cache. That didn't wok. I also tried going onto a sense rom and installing a sense kernel which didn't work either. I'm not entirely sure what to do. The thing that bothers me the most, not that I can't be on a different kernel than the stock cm6 one, it is that I don't have the option to change, but I did before.
Thanks so much for any help!
Almost sounds like it may be a hardware problem. Most of the software fixes I would suggest you've already tried with no luck. Keep in mind hardware can fail.

I would think that it is a hardware problem, but I am lead to believe it is something dealing with the kernel because when I am on a stock cm6 kernel, it works, but when I change the kernel, it fails.
EDIT: Also, would you recommend maybe unrooting my phone and completely resetting it?

[Q] GPS issues since flashing ROM & radio

Hi guys,
Very new to XDA devs so apologies if this is a simple one
I have a Desire HD rooted, ENG S-OFF, radio S-OFF, Android Revolution HD 3.1, radio 12.35d.60.140fP_26.06.03.24.M2 and no matter what I try the GPS will not work. As far as I can see the radio I am using was the one recommended for use with this ROM? BTW everything else works great.
I tried flashing back to stock 1.36 and the GPS works no problems. I don't think this is a ARHD specific issue as I tried CM7 with the same problem.
Any ideas please?
i have been having GPS issues as well. Sock works and for me Android Revolution HD 3.1 worked very well 3.2 started to get a bit iffy.
I am on CM7 RC2 and its working now, i am still testing thou, but i have been through a lot of radios. I am testing this one atm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996630

I will try and flash that radio when I get home from work, anyone think there would be issues flashing 12.35d.60.140fU_26.08.03.07_M onto a DHD with ARHD 3.1? Still quite new to this so really don't want to brick my baby lol.
Thanks
Ok, I decided to give it a second go. I did a full wipe, reinstalled ARHD 3.1 via recovery and then reflashed the radio 12.35d.60.140fP_26.06.03.24.M2 and all works now GPS locks in 5-6s max. The only difference between this install and the last one was I manually wiped the device this time (davlik cache etc) instead of using the recovery reset.

[Q] is my phone bricked?

After i flashed the latest cm7 nightlies yesterday. Havent i been able to use my sdcard or connect my desire to my computer. And Bluetooth doesn't work either.
Cell radio seems to work and 3g as well.
Can anyone of you send me a link or explain how to solve these issues?
Possibly bugs in the ROM/kernel. Flash an older version or the RC2. Or try another kernel, to se if that solves the problem.

[Q] did my radio update break my gps?!?

So I've been running cm7 for a while now with no problems at all with my GPS after the sense GPS fix. Today I updated my radio prl pri combo thing and my GPS only locks for 1 second or so then even the icon dissapears. So I flashed cm7 over itself and its still broke. Anyone know a good combo for the GPS or a fix?
Have you tried the re-doing the "sense GPS fix" you mentioned? You can asking try shutting down your device, pulling the battery, reinserting the battery and then powering up your device to see if that helps.
posting & replying via the XDA Premium app.
Yeah I've pulled the battery more then once. Does anyone know if updating radio combo ect... would make me need to do the sense fix again?
Because that's a giant pain in the ass.
Hi, did you ever got your radio to work again? I have the exact same problem now. I tried an old rom (Floyo 1.2) and thought I might as well update the radio. I did a full wipe and everything went fine, but I can never get a GPS signal. I have tried GPS status and toolbox -> reset -> download assist data but to no luck. Then I tried six different radio versions (old and new), the Floyo Euro GPS zip, the Salsa rom and Elelinux' 2.3.4 rom but none of them works. If I try to let GPS status keep running for a minute or so, the phone will eventually do a hard reboot :/

Try and flash back to a sense based rom and reflash the updated radio and then update your prl reboot and update your profile do that twice should clear up your issues.
miui-us I'm having issues with GPS on CM7 as well, but I never got it to work with a sense fix or anything...I'm going to see if I can get it working when I flash a sense rom first. If it works then I'll try what you said.
Same thing happened to me after updating the radios. Looks like it's time for the PITA Sense and back fix.
Trying it now, but it takes about an hour, I will get back to you....

Couple of issues with Wifi/Radio updates

So I recently installed MIUI, and as soon as I did my Wifi radio stopped working. Every time I try to switch it, it turns back off and says "error."
I figured this was a problem with my radio (26.02.01.15_M2) when I found another irksome problem. When I go to flash PC10IMG.zip the bootloader gets to "Checking PC10IMG.zip) and then quits and refuses to attempt the update.
Any ideas?
I apologize if this question has been asked, but I couldn't find anything similar in the short search I did.
Thanks in advance!
Could be a bad download? Which Radio are you trying to flash?
Download the radio from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970809
Dont know what ROM you are running but Vision_Radio_12.52. 60.25_26.08.04.30 seems to be a good one,download the attached file for wiping the EFS(Important when flashing radios)
The link has further instructions and information,hope that helps
Hey, thanks for your response! I actually tried three different Radios from that thread (the first three), and none of them worked. I ran an efs wipe yesterday because I was having GPS problems, and these problems persisted after that...
FWIW, when I flash other kernels/ROMs, things work fine (CM7, PyroMod, Stock) but on MIUI these problems crop up.

Do you mean you can update the radio with other ROMs or do you mean that the wifi problem is only on MIUI?If your problem is only with MIUI cant help as I dont use that ROM but still doesnt explain your problem with flashing a radio as the bootloader is independent of the ROM
I think the wifi radio and the cellular radio are different and when you flash the radio firmware, it only updates the cellular radio firmware. Someone more knowledgable than me will probably correct me. It's probably something screwy with the MIUI roms which is effecting you. If you want to use MIUI then try one of the other MIUI roms that are out there and also notify the developer of the MIUI rom your using about your issue.
I hate the recent radios for G2 latest one from Bell sucks. Signal drops every few seconds, data connection is just OK. Very disappointed. I did the efs wipe and auto ril matcher V6 and all this other bs and I hate it.
