[Q] Installing Google apps breaks hotspot. - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having a similar issue as mine?
I was trying to troubleshoot some unrelated issue with my phone, which eventually caused me to flash my ROM from CM9 back to stock and back to CM9 again.
After I flashed CM9, I forgot to install the Google apps package in clockwork mod and continued to boot my rom.
I had discovered that my wifi tether (built into CM9) worked, but then rebooted and installed the gapps package after realizing that I hadn't.
After I had reinstalled the gapps package, I proceeded to check if my wifi hotspot still worked, but it did not (immediately after I engage the hotspot, it automatically deactivates).

Maybe reflash the rom and gapps again?

Only suggestion I can offer would be to track down the hotspot process in your Apps Management. Go inside of the process and do a Force Stop and Clear Data to get it back as if you were starting it for your first time. I know it's the CM9 integrated WiFi tethering so you might want to check what the process is called. I've spoofed a lot of programs into re-working that way. I hope it works for you too - good luck!

I launched terminal emulator, ran the "top" command, and saw the two services which I believe represent the CM9 integrated wifi hotspot:
iscan_sysioc
dhcp_sysioc
I can't find these two in my apps list to clear its data. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just reboot. It has been happening to too many people including me.

I have rebooted countless times, at different stages of initialization for the hotspot.
No change. It still automatically disengages.

What modem you are using? Try other. Reflash, lastest gapps etc... always chck md5.

I tried this on EL30 modem, then upgraded to FC09. The hot spot still breaks every time after I install gapps (I just checked, and it's the latest version).

Try reflashing the ROM, but in CWM go to Mount and Storage and format System/Data/Cache. Not using the "wipe data/factory reset" in the main screen. And wipe Dalvik too.

I've just checked, there is no "fc09 boot from sdcard", but there is a kexec bootable el30 which i already have and have successfully updated the prl and profile.
This did not fix my issue.

There is an FC09 but wtogami did not make a seperate thread for it. Here is one of the posts:

Thank you for this info, I just downloaded it to try it out.
You are right, this might not fix my issue. Does anyone know why installing gapps on my phone breaks the integrated (and third-party) wireless hotspot?

Try with AOKP...is almost the same as CM9 but with a Pink Horse.
If not your phone is really very honest.

I'm going to semi-necro answer this, because I just installed CM9.1.0(Stable) -Build date Aug 28 with fc09 and was having this exact issue, and like so many others found no answer...
Goto Running services, kill both google services, start wifi hotspot, win.

[Q] Someone Help Please?

Hey guys, I seem to be having a problem on my phone recently.. Every time I start it up, or try to load an app or something, I get a message saying the process ends. This happens with Google Apps, Gingerbread Keyboard, Etc. I've tried wipe x3 then reflash, but it doesn't do anything.
I'm running
Genocide Kernel, Firmware 2.2.1, And Simply AOSP v3.1.2
I believe it's still on SFR 1.2 , but it's not saying that in the build number so I'm not sure..
someone please help.
If you have a good nand backup you can do a factory data reset and then restore advanced data. That will clear up any of the FCs. Or clear data in each of the apps giving you problems in settings>applications>manage applications>all and scroll to google services framework and click it and clear data. Do the same for the Gingerbread keyboard and any other app FCing.

I will try this, but the other problem is, it just started having problems with the android processor. Like, I did a restore, and all the sudden, I'm getting all the errors I was getting originally, and like the core & android processor thing is failing.

Sounds like you did not have journaling enabled. The Factory Data reset and a reflash of your ROM should fix it. Find out how to enable journaling for your ROM and do it.

I'm sort of new to this, so just one more question. Now, I had Syndicate Frozen Rom 1.2 on originally, then I flashed Simply AOSP 3.1.2 . Which one would I reflash, Simply AOSP or SFR?

I believe Simply AOSP is a full ROM including kernel so that would be what you would reflash.

When you install a new ROM like AOSP all of that is gone. If you want to do SFR and Genocide instead of AOSP then go ahead. We should get you up and running first though and then you know the steps to take when it screws up again.

Yeah Kenny is right, as usual. If you decide to try SRF 1.2, flash the ROM, then journal on zip, then the kernel you want to use then reboot and enjoy.

I would suggest either pming or posting on the AOSP thread what setup you're on and how best to convert to their Rom. Sometimes they've heard of conflicts or tricks that they can walk you through. I love SRF, but if you want to explore, you should know what works best to transition. You'll get it going, just keep toying. Worst you have to do is Odin and that's not terrible for the phone now and again.

I gave up on it.. Went to EG22. Still debating on whether or not to go back to SFR / Simply AOSP.. because the battery life on RandomROM is absolutely amazing. But I'll PM him.

Capacitive buttons only work when keyboard is out

I've got an issue where all four capacitive buttons will not work in portrait mode but will work in landscape mode with the keyboard out. I've found some people had issues when they first got their phones but I've had mine for about 14 months and this just started happening. I'm on RandomRom right now with a fresh flash but I had this same Rom before I re-flashed and didn't have the issue. Also, the capacitive buttons used to work in CWM but they don't anymore. I'm going to try the new RandomRom later this weekend but I was curious if anyone else had this issue? I'm leaning towards a hardware problem even though it does work with the keyboard out but also the software has essentially remained unchanged so I'm lost.

I recommmend doing a clean install of whatever rom you want to use. An updated kernel should be included with the rom. Wiping 3 times is not neccessary as that was a bug with old cwm (3.x.x.x) 1 time is enough now. If the problem persits after a clean install download the newest samurai kernel. If that doesn't work try the newest shadow kernel (you can try shadow first if you would rather that kernel). Shadow is now on 1.0.4....

if that doen't work... try this...it may work.. and i got this advice from kennyglass, it helped me alot. if you can reflash from odin, try repartitioning...that may fix it. "trial and error". that's what i would do. "but thats just me".
Okay I tried the CleanGB, with the stock kernel and Shadow kernel, and neither of those worked either! Does anyone know of a decent ROM to Odin? I don't want to download the stock from the Samsung website and have to re-root. Or, does anyone know of a gesture application that has "back" and "home" that can be mapped?
Besides "odin", u really got me there. If. U repartition...as much as u don't want to..it will completely reset everything. I would have to say, its better than continuining the guesing game...u know? That's my advice though.

Clean GB MTD issues

Ive tried 3 times to switch to mtd heres my steps I must be doing something wrong please point it out for me.
Step 1: odin to deodexed/rooted ec05
Step 2: eco5 modem to ei22 converted
step 3: upgrade to newest cwm5
step 4: Wipe data/cache/delvik 3x
step 5: Install MTD Clean rom/ Also tried CM7
Outcome: first seems fine restarts back to cwm5 Im assuming that means its converted to mtd? (should i reflash rom after restart to cwm5?) Then I reboot system and the screen just stays black nothing happens waited forever forceing me to odin again and repeat the steps with no luck over and over again. I have also tried installing clean rom + a different MTD Kernal. Still just a black screen buttons lit up and no sign of life I waited nearly half an hour leaving the phone like this and nothing happened.
Odin is a pain it takes 5 failured to reodin I figured id ask the pros since i want MTD and need to figure this out. Please tell me im missing something obvious and make it a simple solution lol Thanks for your help.
When you flash an MTD ROM, the phone will restart during the flash and should reboot and continue to install. Once that is done it should say install successful in CWM. Is it doing that?
I install in cwm5 it shuts off reboots back to cwm5 and thats it at that point i find myself lost and reboot to system and get black screen. Do my steps look right nothing special i have read all comments and see no issues so i feel pretty slow because i never have these problems and couldnt find a similar one.
If it helps me explain better when i installed CM7 I got as far as the CM7 loading screen and then it froze. So I tried to wipe then install clean MTD to see if it would load either and got black screen right after CM7 logo......Ill try again in a minute I just want someones help first before I try again. Then i will post new info about my issue if it continues and we can figure out what im missing.
When you odin you says it fails? You need a better cable also you converted to mtd but it won't boot so when you go back to stock you need to repartition so have that checked. Also don't go back to stock rooted go back to official stock ec05 not anything but that please. Then once done flash in a custom recovery and flash the ei22 modem conversion and finally wipe data cache and dalvik *once* and flash the mtd rom. Then it will reboot almost half way through and then it should say install complete and it will reboot your system.

Ok im going again to try after reading your post ill edit this reply with my outcome after my attemp Im using my 4g for internet so it will take a few minutes to get back here to respond.
Ok ive tried it all nothing helps reflashed on MTD even still boots back to cw5.
I did however download from the xda app I seen some threads on this. Is it possible thats the reason? I usually download roms from it and they work fine but my 16gb is running low. Im going to try again from a laptop download then transfew to microsd on sd adapter and see. I tried it all how do i check md5?
Also i was trying to flash cm710 so im not sure if that has a issue but ill try not downloading from XDA app because im really tired of starting from scratch with this phone. sm7 i see boot logo and resets to cwm5 Clean MTD i see only black screen and it resets to cwm5.
I had to do a factory data reset right before flashing CM7 otherwise I also got stuck at the circle load thingie.

It was probably some bad downloads. If you want to try CM7 I only was able to get it to flash with a Factory Data reset prior to flashing it. You should grab one of the nightlies from 10 and up with the working 4G toggle.
Well i was dedicated to resolving this after realizing sleeperrom mtd and Marcusant MTD had broken wifi when 4g was enabled. So yeah i resolved the issue by downloading with dolphin browser mini worked like a charm for some reason that browser is the only reliable one for me to download roms. Switched to clean gb 4g wifi hotspot is perfect. Also if anyone knows if hotspot with 4g is broken in cm7 mtd what tether app with 4g tether will work with an epic?

Phone: HTC Droid Inc 2, Verizon
CM10
Network Mode: CDMA/EvDo
I also just realized that my GPS doesn't work.
Help, please!

Just making sure you know what a full wipe is and allowing others to Search Full Wipe and know what it means. When I fist started flashing I wasn't quite sure what Full Wipe meant.
Here are the instructions:
In Clockwork Recover
scroll to mounts and storage
select format /system -> Yes - Format
---Done---
Select format /data -> Yes - Format
--Done--
Select format /cache-> Yes - Format
--Done--
Now you may flash a new rom
doing a restore doesn't wipe the /system which could be interfering with the CM10 rom depending on what you are coming from
Figured it all out... it works fine, I live in NYC and Verizon has lost a lot of its infrastructure due to the storm. 3G is back up today as normal, I simply reset my router.
Thanks for all the help thought.
Cheers
im having the same problem
Would make sense that a hurricane coming through may disrupt service for a bit....

[Q] bad cell reception with CM10.2

Hello,
I am ready to pull my hair out! I installed the Cyanogenmod yesterday and my cell reception is terrible. I usually get full bars of 4g coverage in my driveway but nothing since install. I have an AirRave signal booster in the house and I get no data connectivity without wifi and 2 bars when I am standing right next to the signal booster. Different areas of town where I used to be able to count on full 3g coverage - 2 bars and no data. I don't know what to do. I am about to wipe and start over again. Any one, please help...
I have a Sprint GS3 SPH-L710
Did you dirty flash? I never had any problems with CM10.2 connectivity. You might have a bad download or something didn't get flashed correctly. I would do a clean install, ( wipe dalvik, cache, data) and re-download, flash the ROM and gapps .
GL!

Thank you for the reply. I am not sure what a dirty flash is. I am new at this. I used the Cyanogenmod app to lead me through the process. So I could use some help with the terms, please.
Thanks again.
This should help you out some:

So I just did a reset and installed Cyanogenmod once more on my phone and still having and issue. I can only guess from the threads that I read that I did a clean flash. Any other thoughts.
Thanks again for the reply. I appreciate the help
Sound like an APN issue If your only having problems with your data. I've heard of ppl having to go and flash a TW ROM to update their APNs and get it working correctly again.

Hmm, that sounds promising. Does anyone know where to find a TW ROM that will work with my phone?
Check out the Cm10.2 thread, I know they were having issues Sept 20th to Oct 5th?? With data. The might be able to help you out.

Can you give me link to that thread? I'm having a devil of a time finding it..thanks

The above link is from the Note 2 forum (my phone). I was doing some scouting on the S3 (wife's phone) and saw this thread and thought of the one I linked.
I was having major data problems on cm10.2 even after I would go back to a touchwiz rom, update profile prl then do a "clean flash" of cm.
Problem is the way that touchwiz and cm handle the file system.
If you have a data problem in cm, flash a touchwiz ROM, update profile and prl, then go to your file explorer and delete the folder "sdcard/0/android/data/" (the only folder you need to delete is data - since I have everything on my external sdcard, I deleted the whole 0 folder.) Then do a real clean flash of cm and you should be just fine.
Obviously, if you're concerned about losing any data, back it all up before you do anything.

Thank you for the link. I am a little confused, being the newb that I am, do I have to flash a touch wiz rom to grab the APN? and then go back to CM? It seems like a lot of work...I know, nothing good comes easy...although I was hoping for a fix within CM.
Just another question, what's the harm in staying in CM and 3g only besides not being able to access LTE for the moment?
One thing I do know is any aosp ROM will have this problem. Something to do with ril or to that nature. I hunted a lot of threads on various sprint phones having the same problem.
I just stuck with tw cause the data speeds are so much better, in the same spot on aosp I get about 1.3mbs and tw about 5.5mbs. I hate tw to, can't stand it but it works

not really that time consuming. do a backup of your cm. flash atw. update prl and profile grab apn. back it up. restore cm backup. then restore apn. take no more then 20 minutes.
