Recently flashed to CM7 RC2.
Wifi connects with no issues.
Flashes Savaged Zen's lates BFS/Froyo Kernel and Wifi does not pickup any networks.
I've re-flashed CM7 several times and have confirmed Wifi connectivity but the minute I flash Savaged Zen's newest Kernel, I cannot pick up any networks.
I ususally run Sense based ROMs and havent ran AOSP rom for some time.
Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions?
The battery life seems GREAT but I definitely need WiFi connectivity and don't seem to find anyone else having issues like this.
PS - I clear cache/Dalvik/Factory reset everytime I flash a new ROM.
Thanks in advance.
Cm7 is a GB rom correct? Don't use the Froyo kernal on a GB rom..?

Not sure if its the fact i am running CM 7 or what but whenever i try a different kernel then there stock everything boots just fine but the touch screen doesn't work. I am lost and have no clue what to try.
What kernel are you trying to flash?

If running cm7, ya gotta flash a gingerbread AOSP kernel - try that.

I believe it was the AOSP kernel part that i was missing. I finally got a Invisiblek to install. Thanks for the help.

Invisiblek is the way to goon Gingerbread roms. I've flashed his newest with OMFGB 1.1.1, and it is awesome. No problems snappy, excellent battery too!
Sometimes people (including me) mix up AOSP and Sense, sadly they don't like to play with others if you install them with the wrong rom. Racists, pft.
I have only had the phone about a week now so I have had a lot to learn. So far everything seems good now and I am happy. Now if i could just get better battery life lol.

Maybe download it again and then try it. Just as a question are you by chance trying to flash a froyo kernel and not realizing it? Its gotta say gb or gingerbread

The link you provided is the EVO kernel. Have you tried the Inc kernel?
Evo: http://www.thebcblends.com/cayniarb/Kernels/evo/Tiamat_Evo-v3.3.3-sbc.zip
Inc: http://www.thebcblends.com/cayniarb/Kernels/inc/Tiamat_Inc-v3.3.3-sbc.zip
The zip files have different contents.
EDIT - I just realized the thread you linked has both the Inc and the Evo versions. I saw that it was in the Evo subforum and jumped to the wrong conclusion. In any regard, make sure you are flashing the right one.
I just flashed
Inc: http://www.thebcblends.com/cayniarb/Kernels/inc/Tiamat_Inc-v3.3.3-sbc.zip
and i am still having same problem. Any ideas ?
Edit: Messing around with rooted phones is something I have just started so it maybe something simple I am missing.
Not sure why my cell doesn't seem to like other kernels but
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905873
seems to be doing just fine so i will leave it alone.
Thanks for all the help.
Have you tried Incredikernel? Kernels are really a matter of personal preference, but Incredikernel seems to be one of the best. (And also my favorite.)
I gave it a shot a while back and had trouble. My issue is that he touch screen doesn't respond. Incredikernel is recommended in several places but i had zero luck with it supporting the screen. I have started to wonder if its support for slcd.
I will try it again and see what happens.
I am currently running EvoKings GB RC3 and loving it. But since I can't leave well enough alone, I want to update to the RC4.
I just have a couple of questions concerning this ROM.... I see where he mentions its based on CM7... is it based on CM7 7.0.0.0 or CM 7 7.0.2.1?
Also will I need to do the GPS fix again and update PRL, as I assume I have to wipe dalvik/cache to update from RC3 to RC4 (as it seems its more than just an update)?
Speaking of the GPS fix, when I did it, I was on RC3 of the EvoKings GB rom, and this is the steps I followed:
Booted into recovery
Made a Nandroid backup
Wiped All Data
Flashed into a backup sense rom I have (Mikfroyo 4.6)
Performed GPS fix and updated PRL
Booted back into recovery
Performed Nandroid restore (no data wipe)
Back into RC3
Was that correct... that I dont do a data wipe and just do a nandroid restore? I have been reading so many conflicting reports on this. My assumtion was to always wipe data before doing a restore.
Thanks everyone.
First of all, if you're updating a current rom, them all you should have to do is wipe cache & dalvik and then flash the updated rom. As for not wiping data, no, it isn't necessary, however, I'm one of the people who do especially if I'm changing roms. I don't want any remnants of the previous rom.

Ok cool, thanks. When doing the GPS fix, is the info stored somewhere else, which is why it doesnt get removed when doing a wipe of stuff?
Trying to figure that out... since yeah I am worried about having some type of conflict when switching from a sense to an AOSP rom. I havent had any issues so far with RC3 doing that, minus some issues with the screen not coming on with a button press while playing music.. but not sure if thats just something with the ROM itself or the GPS fix.
I am not sure where the gps fix is stored, but there should be no conflicts. I have switched between AOSP and Sense tons many times since I did the fix and have never had any problems.

+1.....I've never had to apply a GPS fix and I, too, have switched between AOSP and Sense numerous times. As a matter of fact, my current rom is Salvage-Mod and the GPS works as it should and I still didn't have to apply a fix.

I had to do the gps fix when I first switched to cm7 rc2. Since then I have never had to redo it nor have I had any issues.

What build of CM 7 is this rom built off of?
I've got an evo 4g, I've been rooted for about a year. i flashed cm7.1 and it was running for about 3 months and last week wifi and 4g just stopped working. i used rsa checker to check my keys and they're still there. i think the problem is my ip address. its unavailable on wifi and 4g. i dont really know where to look. can someone point me in the right direction?
Did you just flash a new kernel?
Try flashing Tiamat... see what happens.
i just flashed savaged zen, but that was after the problem. i reflashed clockwork again, as well as cm7 again. how do i update my ip address? i think thats the prroblem. by telling you i already flashed a kernel, do u think it will help? how?

Just flash Tiamat and see what happens. This is almost definitely kernel related. Make sure you wipe dalvik cache and cache (preferably with Amon RA or TWRP recoveries).
I love you man, I'm talking serious bromance! Can you explain why that worked? Did my old kernel go bad? Thank u so much!

it broke again, I flashed again. It didn't come back.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Try a different version of CM7. You can also try an entirely different rom for troubleshooting purposes. Generally 4G & wifi issues stem from the kernel. Are you flashing any mods or running anything that makes system changes, like V6 Supercharger? If you're using V6, undo the kernel tweaks.
Best bet is to flash a different version of CM7, even if you have to downgrade. Do a full wipe - data, cache, dalvik, system, boot, SD-ext, .android_secure - and flash only the rom and gapps. Try 4G & wifi before restoring anything. If they work, you can then restore anything you've backed up with TB, just try to avoid restoring system apps/data. If the problem comes back then it may be something in one of your apps or the data you've restored... though unlikely.
If this doesn't work, do a full wipe again and flash a fully stock rooted rom. Update your radios etc with the combo zip. If that fails, RUU.
There are plenty of options, but I don't think you'll have to go as far as running an RUU. Start from the top and work your way down.

Hi is there anyone working on a hotspot hack for ei22,I am stock rooted and would like sprint hotspot for my device with working 3g and 4g.I know I have the option of using wireless tether app but it makes my phone hot or restarts my phone after about 15 min of usage. I believe this would be the better option for tethering.Any help would be greatly appreciated

Biggoron is correct, only deodexed ROMs can get the hotspot hack and no one is working on trying to make it work on an odexed ROM currently. You would need to use Barnacle or Wireless Tether for that.

No not necessarily,I heard that odex was the best as far as how the phone operates and responds from my knowledge. And also Im not sure how the recovery process would go changing my android system between the two,would mybackpro work and things like that with a backup and restore with that app,or would the recovery process be different.And also what about the modems and kernel flashes would I have to switch those as well to be on deodex? Im not to familiar with the process because to be honest I choose to stick with stock as much as possible,it seems like people run into problems flashing different kernels and things like that.That's why I was hoping for a odex since im still stock rooted

Hahaha I've heard of more problems on stock than on a custom rom regaurdless. You have a custom recover no? Its quite simple make a backup of your current rom pick a rom and kernel of your choice wipe data,cache,dalvik and flash your new rom and kernel. Boot it up make sure its all good and go back into cwm and go to restore and advance restore your data. If you get any fc's clear that apps data. About the modems.... it all depends on what works best for your phone people like ei22 because its newest but if you have signal issues on there you can just use a different there are a bunch ec05,eg22,ef02, eeo3 etc etc no one modem is best but others work well with certain people. And your not changing you android system unless your flashing an Android Open Source Porject or aosp like cm7/miui.

o okay thank you for clearing that up for me, you have seemed to answer my questions and worries I had about flashing different roms,I guess when I get home I can give it a try!
And feel free to ask more questions here about it or PM any one of us. We are glad to help!
Nice job Biggie.
And the great thing is.... if you do run into problems with the rom you flashed you can always restore the backup of your stock rooted rom with cwm! So no worries at all because it is all reversable!

About a week ago my just wifi and tether stopped working.
What happens:
When attempting to "toggle on" toggle will switch from on then back to off after several minutes sometimes the toggle will grey out
Things I have done to try to fix it:
-Factory data reset
-Reflashed ROM
-Flashed different kernals
-Flashed different radios
-Flashed different ROMS everything from cm7 to cm10 and sense based roms
Additional info:
Wifi and tether were working the night before, my battery was low so my phone died with tether still on. I plugged it in and left it alone until the next morning
ROM I was using at the time: Andromadus Mimicry 1.5 w Aero14

Was that no to all questions including restoring from titanium? If so, then I would say it's hardware related. If it was just a setting then flashing a new rom would fix it.

If the wifi *never* works, it may be that your kernel driver for the wifi device is either not installed or doesn't match the current kernel. If it works some of the time then fails, it's probably broken hardware.
Fixing the kernel problem means you'll need to find a kernel update zip and flash it in recovery. See the dev forum to find one
