Yesterday I flashed CM 7.2.0 FXP109 on my Xperia Arc S.
3G worked perfectly.
Later I installed AdFree, and set my phone on the table. I do not remember if I rebooted it first. About an hour later when I picked up the phone again, I had no 3G signal. Still nothing today. Tried re-flashing CM7.2 FXP109, whilst first wiping data/cache/dalvik. Still nothing.
Tried to put it into airplane mode, waiting 10 seconds and turning it back off, checked all the settings (and the APN settings are set the way they should).
Also, after having wiped the phone data and cache and re-flashing, somehow USB Debugging and Unknown Sources are still turned on. Shouldn't that reset?
Either way, something is wrong and I'm at a loss. I have no idea what to do, and I just bought the phone yesterday. Before that I had an X8 with GingerDX, so it's not my first time installing a bootloader, and I haven't had these problems on my old phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT:
I found a (possible) solution, at least it seemed to have worked for me.
I flashed a different kernel (and thus got a different version of CWM), formatted, wiped cache/dalvik cache and flashed back to the kernel needed for FXP109. Then I installed FXP109 CM7.2 and GAPPS again. Problem solved.
My guess is that for some reason, I had to flash to a different kernel and back to solve it.
Cheers!

Hi All,
I need help.
Sorry to make a new thread i just have no idea what else to do.
Yesterday my phone was having wierd reception issues.
I could not send/recieve sms', access the internet, no 3G at all. However i could still recieve calls.
I restarted the phone, still nothing. I checked teh APNs etc.
Everything was fine in terms of settings.
After having issues with OD 4.0.15 previously i decided to do a full wipe and re flash the rom. Turns out i only had OD 4.0.4 on my phone since i was using the online updater.
After formatting and flashing the phone with OD 4.0.4 i was able to recieve sms' and make calls but the phone seemed to be unresponsive and slow.
At that time i thought i would try and download a different ROM. I downloaded LeeDroid 2.1, did a full wipe and flashed the ROM. Now sms' and calls work, however the 3G is flakey.
The symptoms i am experiencing are:
Cannot download anything from Market. Can browse the market but cannot download anything. It just hangs at "starting download"
On first boot when setting up gmail account it will not connect. I have to check teh APNs then set it up again and it works.
Everything else taht requires 3g appears to be working. Browse the net etc.
I have done the following, not in any particular order.
Flashed 32.47.00.32_5.10.05.23
Flashed 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2
Flashed 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Flashed OD 4.0.15
Flashed OD 4.0.4
Flashed LeeDroid 2.1
Removed battery
Removed simcard
Tried another sim card
Formatted SD
Created a new EXT3 partition
Wiped dalvik cache
Wiped setting/cache
Im sure i have done other stuff but i forget now.
Please throw some ideas at me as i have no idea what to do now.
Cheers
Tristian
just to update this.
I have flashed another new ROM however i am still having these issues
Further testing shows that , 3G works fine when browsing etc however Market just does not work.
help?
Hi,
I am having a really odd and very frustrating issue with the latest CM7 Stable Build on my device.
I have been using the latest stable since its release back in November.
I ensured a clean wipe and install of CM 7.1.0.1 and setup my phone accordingly and Nandroid Back Up around a Week later as the Device was behaving as intended.
Sadly, I am now plagued with the following issue which occurs without any common trigger....
I will be using the device which will be behaving normally and it will suddenly, normally when screen is off... reboot and enter a Boot Loop (CM7 Robot will either be frozen solid or will keep rebooting to CM7 Robot) which seems to continue until a battery pull.
I will then restart the device and it sometimes boots straight away though sometimes hangs for a while. Once booted it boot to the 'Setup your device' Screen, from which point onwards you are required to Re-Enter your Logins for Google and such like. All settings and sync profiles are normally missing/deleted so requires setting up of all apps requiring logins etc.
As you can imagine, the above is quite an inconvenient as it normally happens when I actually need to use the device
I have tried reinstalling a clean CM7 over the top as well as wiping and formatting the SD card.
Neither seem to have solved the issue.
Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
It is also worth noting that while the device will charge off USB, it will not allow usb tethering or any form of USB Mounting etc.
Cheers
Jason

cm7 issues.
sounds like your in quite a pickle my friend.
i used to get your reboot issues (the bootloops) but that was because my phone was overclocked to over 700. i never got the setup device screen though.
when you say youve tried a clean install over cm7 have you factory reset the device as well as deleteing the dalvik cache??
also my sound stupid but have you tried your backup to see if it starts again??
it sounds like something has became quite corrupted.
have you installed any new apps recently or changed anything in the system files of the phone?
also when you have to go through the set up are all your apps still there afterwards? And when you first flashed it did the tethering work at all?

Yup and while it does restore to a point where I can use my phone quite quickly after however I'm very cautious after - typically it happens a couple of weeks later

No real new recent apps installed and no mods to the system files that I can recall.

All my apps are still installed but many apps require re-setup or accounts for sync require re-adding. Phonebook requires import of contacts however messages remain in place.
I can't recall I think it did or at least USB-Storage did
Do you have a SD ext partition?
I ask because I had similar problems (randomly losing data) with an ext 4 partition, repartitioning my card using ext 3 solved it, also put your dalvik cache and data back into phone memory if it isn't already as that can also cause instability.

Try this....
Run an RUU for wildfire.
- Download (RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_C_Radio_13.45.55.24 _ 3.35.15.19_release_141106_signed) from android forums.
- Connect phone to PC and run RUU
- This downgrads phone OS to eclair (android 2.1)
- Let it do the bizniss
- Re-root with unrevoked 3
- Re-Flash CM7 and gApps
Many thanks Scratch and Arkose,
Since my post last week I have since formatted the SD Card as well as Wiping the Phone as much as possible.
I then flashed and installed the latest CM7 Stable, Radio Package as well as re-setting up the EXT Partition this time as Type 3.
Once up and running I reinstalled all Apps.
Seems to be running okay so far.
Long may it last hopefully.
If not will try last suggesion
Great stuff. Let us know how it goes

A quick update...
Still having issues
I'm noticing that randomly phone process will crash for no apparent reason/cause, normally when off Wifi and on Mobile Data.
Last night was the worst its even been though... at a critical moment when I needed the phone to work... it decided it was having none of it.
Phone kept switching Airplane Mode On and Off causing process.android.com to crash along with most other services So I rebooted only to find that it now was either stuck in Airplane Mode or couldnt enable to Radio (No Phone Signal at all) so I did a battery pull while trying to walk home in the pitch black and rebooted.
The Saga continued even after a battery pull, I eventually as I got in the door was able to use the 'Torch' and recieve a phonecall before all the processes crashed once more...
So I did a battery pull, left the phone for five mins and rebooted. All was well for a while, enabled Wifi, phone seemed happy.
Had to reboot a short while ago, after recieiving a phonecall and text.... grrr... anyone have any suggestions?
I had problem with process restarting. Adw launcher process I downloaded Go Launcher ex I have no problems now.

Hi there,
Just wanted your point of view regarding something really strange that happened to me yesterday.
(btw, I looked it up all over the forum + google but still unabale to find a proper answer)
So basically, I droped down my phone, which crashed on the floor but nothing really serious. Ever since, every time I try and turn on the wifi, it says "Error".
I've tried rebooting it several times and still get the issue.
Do you guys think the wifi chip could have been broken? Is there any report log I could find using terminal or root explorer?
Phone specs:
Virtuous Unity v1.29.0
Android 2.3.3
Phone rooted
Bluetooth does turn on
Thanks in advance for your help
Try flashing a different rom, back up your current one first, and check out if the wifi is working without restoring any apps.
Did you ever fix this? I did the exact same thing, dropped onto hard tile. Wifi error and couldn't read data partition.
Randomly after a day or 2 it fixed itself and was fine for 2 weeks.
BUT...just happened again today. I wiped caches, reflashed ARHD, fixed all permissions. Data partition became readable again (not sure which of those fixed that) but i still get "Wifi Error" when turning wifi on.
Any help/suggestions much appreciated.
Everything has been fine until yesterday morning, when at work I realised my phone was rebooting every 3 or 4 minutes.
I hadn't changed anything, I hadn't flashed anything, I don't O/C my phone. I'm usins AOKP Milestone 3 with Immoysen Kernel.
I've tried -
Reflashing AOKP with no custom kernel
Wipe & flashing CM9 Kang
Wipe & flashing MCR
When I tried to make a Nandroid of MCR (as it seemed to be okay for an hour or so) it gave an error when it got to backing up the data partition. Could their be a corrupt bit of memory there?
Also, at one point I think it might have reset while in recovery, which makes me think it's hardware, not software.
Today I've tried -
locking and unlocking the bootloader
Android_Revolution_HD_Super_Wipe_Lite
Wipe and flash AOKP B23
Generally it seems to be better after a wipe and a fresh install, for a little while, but then seems to start rebooting again later.
I locked and unlocked again around an hour and a half ago and all seems good at the moment, but I thought I'd post still to see if anyone else has had this happen or see if anyone has ideas of how to de-bug it should it come back?
I had this problem after upgraded to 4.0.2. Fresh install did solved this somehow but last week it came back again when dial starts...
Tho it seems un-checked all options in location services would not reboot during or after the call
Hope this info could help u
Thanks. Well, 6 hours since I locked the bootloader and unlocked it again (to wipe everything, including the SD storage) and it's not rebooted once. Looks like it's fixed *touch wood*
I have random turn offs... dunno if it relates. Its a little unnerving...and annoying. No roots, no unlocks, just vanilla 4.0.2.

Hey, everybody.
Had some trouble recently, after a second install of CM10 FreeXperia (version 244) on my Xperia Pro phone. Suddenly, I noticed that the device won't charge when I plug it in (unless I turn off the phone), and that mobile data isn't working anymore. And I'm kinda clueless as to where to go from here. Here's the story;
I've had the device rooted for a month or so, and a few days ago decided to switch to the FreeXperia rom.
Did an install, everything worked fine. Had it running nice & smooth for 3 days, no problem whatsoever, then got an impulse to switch DPI settings. Downloaded "LCD Density Modder", set DPI to 220, and the device was now stuck at blackscreen during boot.
I decided the best option for me would be to reinstall the FreeXperia rom, get everything clean again, and start over without fussing with DPI settings. So i booted into CWM recovery, did a wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset, installed the FreeXperia 244 zip again (aswell as correct gapps), and had everything up and running again!
Atleast that's what I THOUGHT... but by evening, I discovered:
1. the phone wouldn't charge when i plugged it in.
Tried several different chargers, none works. HOWEVER, the phone recharges it's battery when i turn it off.
and,
2. mobile data isnt working, only wi-fi.
No settings changed, looked them through and couldn't find anything obvious (as far as my knowledge goes).
Making calls and sending sms still works, though.
So, I'm a bit stuck here. I'd be extremely glad if someone could give me a few pointers, or instruct me how to do a "proper" re-install (since i assume my way of re-installing things caused these problems).
Anyone got suggestions?
What I tried again now was:
1. wipe everything
2. flash new kernel
3. wipe everything
4. install rom & gapps
5. wipe everything again
However, the problem remains exactly the same.
Download the ROM.zip again, could be a problem with the zip file. Make sure you do a clean install.

Thanks for the tip!! managed to fix it though, through:
1. charging issue resolved itself by doing the aforementioned wipe-install-wipe procedure, and
2. internet issue was resolved by manually entering APN (it had somehow been erased).
so, we've got ourselves a happy ending, here.
