Okay wassup guys? Just made my account today and I already have a question.
Okay well I rooted my Evo using Revolutionary and shortly after that I flashed Sinister's Rom as seen here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012918 After doing so I went to turn on my Wifi and below Wifi is says Error and when I tap it nothing happens at all. I tried going back to my Nandroid back-up and Clearing everything again 4 or 5 times and then went back to Sinister's ROM and I am still left with this Error of mine... I am a n00b but not a complete one but anyway for software info I have Android Version 2.3.3 If that helps at all. Any other specs needed just tell me. Any help is appreciated ! Thanks

Did you try rebooting already? I had a similar error when I flashed MIUI, only with the built-in tether. After a few retries and rebooting, it finally worked.
I would try getting another download or re-flash the rom. Did you install the rom on a clean install?
I have tried rebooting multiple times and have had no luck and yes Installed on a clean install and I cleared the Caches also. As for installing another ROM do you have any suggestions? Like I said I am a n00b

If you like intense graphic wallpapers, go for cm7. If you want your Evo to look like an iPhone, go for MIUI.

Awesome Thanks ! I'll go check those out.

Hey, don't forget to "Thank" my post (click the "Thanks" button towards the end of my post)!
First of all, I would like to thank everyone involved in making our Defy's so awesome.
Thanks to you all, as after getting all the info and help, I was successfully able to
upgraded to CM7 1.0-RC1.5-jordan-signed, and after few initial hiccups everything is working fine. Except the battery drainage issue. And I have been loving the new look and feel of my Defy ever since.
Today Morning. I've started getting a new problem. Whenever I want to call someone and I go to contacts, it force closes itself with following error:-
"The Process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have restarted the phone and no respite from the problem.
Help please....
Did you change something or install a new app immediately before this started to happen ? Did you restart your phone while it was still connected to the PC or so? Some other people solved this problem by doing a factory reset. But you need to find the specific reason or cause in your case and correct that.

Well, the last thing I did last night was that I installed two ADW themes. and also downloaded few wallpapers.
Do you think, the themes could have created this problem?

As there is, according to my information, no standard cause for this problem, everything could be the reason. Other people reported this error on different devices too and the reasons were diverse.
Some have had the problem after installing a new app, others due to rebooting the phone while it was still connected to the pc. Others made a factory reset and then it worked again and the true reason was never found.
It won't kill you to try and disable/uninstall the new themes or wallpapers (if they are live wallpapers).
Maybe there is another specific well known reason for that out there. In this case I simply don't know one.
If you're lucky, others had the same problem and have identified a more precise cause. Then they will answer hopefully.
I would try to undo the last things you changed before and find out the true cause.

Thanks for the suggestions.
Will uninstall the new themes.
And as you said, Factory reset. If I do that, what exactly will happen.
Asking this because as mentioned before, I'm no longer on the version which came with phone and I am on CM7. so Factory reset will take me to which phase?

You may also try fixing permissions before with Rom manager.

well the link tells me what will happen on a stock rom. My question is. If I factory reset on CM7, will it take me to the original state or the default settings of CM7.
Flash cm7 again! maybe it helps.

Recenty started getting few more issues.
1.> Phonebook crashing because of FC's. I'm hardly able to use my phonebook now
2.> Last night, messages stopped working. Again FC's.
3.> Today morning the native camera application stopped working.
And I have done following to overcome all the issues with no luck:-
wipes all cache including devik.
Did factory reset
reflashed with CM7 jordon 1.5
All failed to give me any respite from the errors.
Now I have downloaded cm7-110923-0710-Nightly.
Do let me know if this is an OK one. I've faced way too many errors and afraid of showing it off to anyone now as It might crash anytime.
Much to my disappointment, even flashing to newer nightly, I'm still getting the same errors.
Can someone provide me the 3.4.3-36-1.7 SBF? the one in the link provided earlier is not working.
Or any other solution.
The errors are way too much to ignore, and if this continues then I have to go back to Froyo. But I seriously love the new feel of the phone. All thanks to CM7.
need assistance ---defy just rebooting and rebooting after 2ndinit install

i installed the rom amanger premium
after that i installed the 2ndInit from market for android and installed the latest version .....and after that i uncheck the usb debugging and restarted the defy
since then its auto rebooting from logo to black screen and back to logo ....
please help me i am new to this and really pissed off .......
This has been happening for a week or so now and I can't seem to work out why! It seems random that when I open the messaging app it just crashes, then sometimes that seems to cause a chain reaction and everything starts crashing meaning I have to reset it with the power button. The problem tends to persist unless I power down, wait and turn the phone back on. I didn't have the problem on the rom for a long time (Jellybean 4.1.2 for Endeavoru AOSP Build [JZO54K]) it just seemingly started happening at random. I tried a new rom with a new boot.img (aokp_endeavoru-ICJ-V3.4) which seemed to hold the problem off for a few hours but now its started on that one! I've also ruled out any apps because I made sure I didn't restore anything from my gmail account.
Any ideas?

Hi guys,
I am using a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc and am having a lot of trouble with the device constantly crashing and rebooting.
when this first happened these are the steps i took.
i completely wiped the device (factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition, format system)
i then flashed Baseband 77 using flashtool
i then flashed fxp149 using flashtool
i then flashed Baseband 77 libs using CWM
i then flashed AOKP JB M1-R1 ROM using CWM
i then flashed gapps using CWM
i the reloaded all apps from the market and not applied any backups and yet it still rebooted all the time.
Since then i have tried using
Fusion 3.8
Fusion 3.9
Fusion 4.0
FXP 148
FXP 150
Stock Kernel inside ROM .zip file.
I have also tried putting it back to Baseband 72 but it made no difference.
None of these make any difference to my issue and yet before i had the issue, I had used all of these kernels except FXP 150 and they all worked fine with no issues at all.
I then decided to go all the way back to stock firmware as it is out of the box.
so I used flashtool and flashed LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf
I reloaded my applications and monitored the device only to see that by the next day, the problem had returned.
I am now at the end of my tether and do not know what else i can possibly do to figure out the issue.
the device has not been dropped or damaged in any way so there is no reason for a hardware fault.
i desperately NEED this device to be working as i use it on a daily basis for my business and cannot live with out it.
IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE THAT COULD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP I WOULD BE FOREVER IN YOUR DEBT!!!!!!!
i also have a logcat that i was running in the background when one of the reboots happened
not sure if that can tell anyone anything but i have it if it does
First flash stock kernel (587), after flash the rom compatible with kernel. Remember full wipe before
have you tried not to restore your apps? Maybe one of them causes the problem. I'd try to stick with the clean (stock) rom an check if it still reboots. If it does I guess your device is ready for ebay
Could be a loose battery, try a bit of paper between the battery and the cover and see if that helps.

yes i am starting to think that may be my next move
will i have an issue with getting it repaired since i have unlocked my bootloader, flashed different kernels and roms and rooted the device?
if so, is there any way i can get it back to official "out of the box" state?
Flash a stock ftf and get the bootloader relocked. Having it rooted is fine

i have come across something quite interesting.
i had someone look at the logcat i had running live when i had a reboot and it showed that the last thing to function before the reboot was wifi scanning. they suggested i try turning off wifi and running the live logcat again to see if any reboots occured.
it has now been just over 48 hours and i have not had a reboot at all. i know is because my terminal session is still running the live logcat.
is there anyone that could suggest why this may be happening?
i mean, i know its wifi that is causing the problem, but would that be a hardware issue that could be fixed under warranty? or something else?
any suggestions are appreciated as always

i don't think i can help, i just wanna say that i had (have) the same problem. I said had/have because probably I still have the issue, but i don't notice it that often. Before, I had my phone set to ask for pin code, but now I have removed it to avoid being unreachable if a restart occurs. I have raised the issue long time ago, but really didn't find any answer. Other ppl had same problem with their phone (look at the thread i started about this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765537)
I also have HTC desire in daily use with CM7.2, that also reboots quite often. So I don't think the phones are broken. More likely it's kenel or rom or app issue, or some combination of those.
If you can tell me how to monitor things, I can do it on both phones, maybe we will figure out what's going on.

if you open a terminal session and type:
su
cd sdcard
logcat >> logcat.txt
it will create a .txt file and put the live logcat info into it.
you need to leave the terminal running in the background to make sure it continues to update
then when you see a reboot just get the logcat.txt file from the sd card and open it in wordpad or something. (notepad doesnt display properly)
have a look at the last thing that happened before the reboot and see what it tells you
mine had info about wifi scanning and showed that it had seen ssids
next step was to turn wifi off to see if the problem stayed or resolved.
good luck!! id love to hear how it goes
So I've been into flashing ROMs for a week now and whenever I am installing a AOKP based ROM I have troubles with nework and data. I have to manually look and register on a network after ticking the "2g only option" and I have to do this after every reboot.
Also I manually enter the APN settings and I am not able to save it on any on the AOKP based ROMs so far (Tripdroid, ICJ, CM10 etc.)
I don't know whats wrong. Am I missing something? I also tried getRIL after flashing a new ROM and installing a new RIL but nothing seems to wor.
Any help?
Edit: I am not having such problems with SENSE based ROMs like ARHD Viper etc. And I am on T-Mobile USA
Anyone?

Just tried it. Still not working. Can't save APN settings as before and again if I reboot i have to manually look for mobile network.
Hmm then i am very sorry , I can't give you the answer as my knowledge is not going that far .....
I think you should post this in the thread of the rom because it's rom based.
I have numerous times but no one replies!
Thats pretty f**ked up I can't think of anything anymore, sorry mate !
No worries, I'm here!
Okay, let's begin from a clean table. Wipe everything you can: first cache and dalvik, and finally tap "wipe/factory reset"
When you install ROM, try another nightly than on previous attempts. It might be a bad download or an issue with that particular build.
Next the boot.img. First try the pure modded boot.img, I've attached it once again. Then you could try repacking it with the stock boot (in the rom.zip) here. Wipe cache once again. Now if you did everything correctly, the APN settings should persist.
Then some questions before you do anything with the phone:
Can you see PIN-code query?
Does WiFi work?
Can you make calls?
Signal meter is pure grey with no bars visible?
Then set up your APN like you did before and that should be that. Reboot to see if the network is found, and if the settings persist.
If, however, that doesn't do the trick, use getRIL.
Some people reported that they get no signal on the recommended RIL, so I suggest you to try out every RIL in the list that is even remotely close to the recommended. Reboot between different RIL's.
Also some people reported that the latest getril does not work. Disable playstore automatic updates, remove getril and the install versionv0.9.4b.
Hope this helps!
See that's why you are needed in here !

Thank you! I tried the modded boot.img file yesterday. And just now I flashed back to stock after trying Ice Cold Jelly. managed to get the right RIL version with GetRIL. But again when I reboot I have to manually register on my network and as always I can't save my APN settings. I really like these ROMs but they never work on my phone

You have problems even on stock ROM? That's odd. It could even be hardware.

I have no problems on stock at all. Even Sense based ROMs. I only have this problem on AOKP ROMs like ICJ, CM10 etc. I will try the app but how can I backup and restore APN when I can't save an APN at all. Can I restore in a new ROM after backing it up on Stock?
Edit: Ok I get how the app works. Will try it out
Sorry, I didn't quite catch that phrase. And about backing up stock and then restoring in a custom ROM... only one way to find out.
