I've used doom kernel to get recovery and tried to update with doomlords wifi fix, however it doesnt seem to have worked with my play. looking in the build.prop the wifienabled=1 bit is present with the same for bluetooth etc (bt works)
Does anyone have any idea how i can get this to work?

Please remember this IS a beta, problems are expected..follow the thread to see if any others have the same issue and/or have a solution

I'm on baseband -56
Do you know where I can find a -64 baseband for the r800i?
Also I'm not too certain but is it the flashtool in agraceful's signature that you use to flash the baseband??
This Rom business was far easier on the desire :-D

Nothing with de DoomLord Wifi Modules

procedures to root and flash LT18a

Hi guys, i have some questions about this procedure because all the procedures are made for LT18i version and my celphone is LT18a version (american).
I would like to know if there is any diferences about the procedure to install the CM10 on my cellphone, because of the diference about frequency from this two models.
I'm afraid realyse the procedures and my phone stop working.
I read on the forum that the main difference between the models is the frequency, and i woud like to know if there are any other differences, my cellphone operator works at 850Mhz / 2100Mhz - and the LT18i don't work at 850Mhz it works at 900Mhz / 2100Mhz.
Thx for help!

I also have the LT18a and I'm running CM9 and I've tried CM10 without any issues, I just reverted back to CM9 since CM10 had some stability issues.
Flashing a different kernel or ROM has not had any effect on my radio.
'i' or 'a' the procedure is the same. I=international,a=america,they both work irrespective of where you are in the world.

So, how people sad this is irrelevant, but i have some questions, what might I do first? My device is just like the way it came to me, with the original configurations. I know that i need to root it, but what is the procedure, i might backup all i want and them root it right? but do i need to do any other thing before rooting?
Thx!
Backup what you can before rooting like sms,contacts,calendar,emails etc.
Unless you are rooted you can't backup apps, data.
What it's you system details. Read the stickies in the general section all details are there

you need a 'ready to root' ftf to flash onto your phone before you can root it.
here's one for arc s
after flashing, put your phone in debugging mode and connect your phone to pc and run the 'RunMe.bat' file from this (extract first)
Shall give it a go and post results.

Problem Connect 3G (Arc S - ICS 4.0.4 - Stock Kernel)

guys, someone help me please! SE Arc S ICS 4.0.4 - Kernel Stock - baseband 77
I remember when I bought my ARC S, the version was Lt18A (mobile purchased in the Store Magazine Luiza, certified by Anatel, Brazil), working on 3G 850mhz/2100mhz! after updating the rom he went on to appear Lt18I, and for all I know, only works on 3G 900mhz/2100mhz. I think that's the problem, my phone stopped recognizing the 3G on 850MHz, which is available by Vivo in my area!
any way to change this? baseband, kernel, rom??

baseband, most likely.
or to be sure, flash the entire ROM that dedicated fot LT18A, because LT18i is the international version

[Q] Play 3G Problem

Hi, I have a rooted xperia play R800i (unlocked bootloader and no simlocks) with stock rom 3.0.1.A.0.145 and 3G works fine (baseband 21-22). When I flash any other stock rom with higher baseband (tried 36, 56, 64), I lose 3G signal. I only get 2G connections. When I go into settings->Networks->Mobile Networks->Network Operators, I see only 2G operators. I have a Singtel connection (2100 mhz). On all firmwares I have tried, service menu says I have UMTS_1 UMTs_8.
The reason I want to go to new baseband (atleast 36) is to have custom roms and ICS on the phone. Giving up 3g is not really an option.
I have tried flashing old baseband after flashing custom roms (using flashtool, exclude system and kernel and then copying libs manually from old firmware for baseband) but I keep getting unknown baseband in settings->about phone. There is no voice or data signal if I do this.
Any suggestions to fix this problem will be very helpful.

Did you tried baseband from neo l's firmware?
I'm using it for a long time now, so i know it works. Maybe it will work for you too

Exlude all, leave just baseband in flashtool, no extra files needed.
(make backup, just in case)

Installed stock ICS with Lupus, installed new baseband (-87), but the same problem persists. Voice + 2G works fine, but 3G operators not detected. Any other basebands I can try please?

Have you tried just the baseband for .79? Its a world FTF.
Here is the link from my collection:
http://d-h.st/Mbi
I also have a baseband that I am using its .80 baseband, I have the FTF and the flashable files for it as well. I was getting edge where I live, in the mountains, after flashing .80 I went to HSPA+. Big difference in reception strength and stability for me.
Let us know how it goes.
---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------
Here is the link for the FTF of the 80 baseband and the flashable zip of the 80 libs.
FTF:
http://d-h.st/ljY
Flashable Libs:
http://d-h.st/0oW
Just in case you want to test it out.
Thanks, will try it out tonight. Will post an update on the results.
Thanks.
Hi,
Tried both basebands and still the same problem. Flashed whole 79 ftf and no 3G, tried baseband 80 with libs, still only 2G. 3G works fine as soon as I install the old ftf. A strange pattern I have noticed that I would like to share. The only firmwares that have worked for me are the ones starting with 3.x.x.x, anything with 4.x.x gives the same problem. Here are the firmwares I could find and I tried them out and they work fine.
Xperia PLAY_3.0.1.A.0.145_UK
Xperia_Play_2.3.3_UK_Generic
These basebands havent worked for 3G
R800a_2.3.4_North America Generic.ftf
R800i_4.0.1.A.0.283_(1247-6212).ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic_UK.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_EnhancedV2.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_Generic Hong Kong Trade.ftf
R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).ftf
R800i_4.0.A.2.368_World.ftf
MT25i_4.1.B.0.631 INDONESIA_SONY MOBILE by wewenk.ftf
R800i_-80_Baseband_GSM.ftf
R800_4.0.2.A.0.79.ftf
Are there any 3.x.x firmwares available I haven't tried which have basebands which might work with ICS? That would solve my problem I am guessing.
Thanks.
See if there is dome ftf you didn't try at

And quick question, did you try to install doomlord's ics kernel and some stock-based ics rom on firware you have working 3g? (i mean, is it working if you DON'T flash newer firmware?)
And also, are apn settings same on working 3.x.x firmware and on any other rom you have only 2g (check them manualy, write on paper if you have to)

Yes have tried installing DoomKernel ICS with stock ICS over 3.0.1.A.0.145, I get no network detection and get an Unknown Baseband in about phone. Also tried copying ouver the 7 lib files from the working rom into this setup but same error.
APN settings are the same across firmwares.

Damn, you are really unlucky...
Even i am without ideas what you can do...
Maybe to try cm9 or cm10 roms...
Most desperate idea:
Do you have some friend who have newer rooted Xperia phone with ics or jb on it, and steal baseband libs from him

[Q] unable to turn on wifi, after installing pre rooted kitkat 4.4.2 on gt-n7100

Dear Admins and Members,
Hello to everyone, this is my very first post on xda-dev forums, but I am using the forums as guest since many years,
I have GT-N7100 Middle East Variant, most probably the international variant.
I have successfully installed the android 4.4.2 via philz recovery latest version without any problem, here is some info after installation.
Base-band version : N7100XXUFNB4
Kernel version : 3.0.31-764701
[email protected] # 1
Wed Feb 19 16:56:34 KST 2014
Build number
KOT49H.N7100XXUFNB4
THE ANDROID FILE NAME WHICH I USED FOR THIS INSTALLATION :
N7100XXUFNB4_pre-rooted_deodex_(Leak).zip
Now after the installation, every thing is working great, the phone performance is great smooth, the ram usage is fine, the cpu usage is fine,
battery consumption is great, only the problem is I cannot TURN ON WIFI , yes the wifi is not working,
I have checked that my data internet is working, and i can theter/share my internet via bluetooth, but i cannot share wifi hotspot, as it shows error..
I have tried to re install the phone 2-3 times, but still the errors are same.
I dont see any corrupt file system, i have check the os file is also fine, can any one help me ? how i can fix my wifi error ? Please suggest me the method without re installation, I have lot of big games on my phone and i dont want to do the re installation.
Regards

I don't know which country in middle east you are in but download this stock Saudi Arabia rom from here It should resolve all your issues with wifi.Next root your phone using this Guide.
I am having a similar issue!! Search and found a patch *flashd it via odion.. but that DID not solve the problem!
Installed Omega v29.. still not working.. will try another ROM,maybe that helps
any ideas or suggestions?

The one i bolded is your culprit.You need to flash MJ5 or ND3 bootloader to get your wifi working.Alternative is flash a custom kernel like Nadia or Agni for 4.4.2 and you'll have working wifi.I'll put links below for each of them.Good luck.
nd3 bootloader
mj5 bootloader
how to flash bootloader via odin
Nadia Kernel
Agni Kernel
So difference between MJ5 and ND3 bootloader is that MJ5 is knox free bootloader so warranty will not be void and you can downgrade back to 4.1.2 if needed but you wont be able to charge your phone by turning it off it wil power back on.ND3 bootloader is KNOXED so warranty will be void,knox will be 0x1(no way to reset it yet) but phone can be charged by turning it off.Also once you flash ND3 bootloader you can only go back as far as 4.3 ROM not 4.1.2.
If you don't decide to upgrade your bootloader and stick to your current one which is MB4 you won't be able to charge your phone.FLashing a custom kernel instead you'd be able to get wifi working again.Also if you flash ND3 bootloader you cannot downgrade your bootlader than means you cant go back to MJ5 or MB4 it will just fail in odin or worse brick your device since bootloaders are flashed onto the motherboard of our phones.So if you flash MJ5 first you can easily upgrade to ND3 later if you feel but not vice versa.Good luck

Try flashing a custom kernel especially agni or nadia for 4.4.2 on your 4.4 ROM and see if that helps.Cause these two custom kernels have wifi drivers.I am not sure if custom kernel for 4.3 have the same.

I will first go with the custom kernels. If this works i will reply here.
