[Q] Redux glitches? or just me...

Hello all.
I hope this is in the right section. I have tried looking here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896213&page=447
For any answers, but at over 400 pages it's taking a while!!
I rooted via unrevocked the other day, and flashed Redux. I quite like it but am having the following issues:
WiFi, works fine at home, picked up the signal and signed in easy as. At work however it can't detect anything. On the stock 2.2 it was fine. This is a magor as 3g here is pretty slow. If I can't get WiFi working properly I'm going to have to look for another ROM.
Sound settings in menu. FC's every time.
Camera, may not be an issue as such, but does anyone know how to disable the camera sound? It's incredibly loud and annoying.
Cheers for your help, and if this is in the wrong place please point me to the right one!

Oh just point out what I have or have not done to try and fix this:
I have restarted WiFi router. No change. It was working fine until I flashed Redux.
Works fine at home, and can detect the neighbours WiFi.
I have flashed latest radio ROM 5.17.05.23
I have reflashed Redux. But did not to another complete wipe.
Have tried rebooting and hard reset (remove battery)

Fixed the sound menu issue with a full wipe and reset.
WiFi still not picking up at work. Have flashed a new Kernel 2.6.35.8 manu 1.4
Will see if that chnages anything

For me the screen flickers when I use Android Market and scroll up and down!
Very annoying!

Ok new kernel changed nothing.
Did full wipe are reflash. No change.
Flashed Leedroid 2.2 ROM. WiFi at work instantly working fine.
So flashed Oxygen 2.3 ROM. No WiFi at work.
There is something in those 2 GB ROMs that stops my Desire seeing my works WiFi net work. Any ideas??

I would try to flash radio:

I hope you know how to do this. No warrany for any damage.

Cheers for the reply.
I have that radio already.
It seems it is a very common issue in 2.3 and is to do with hidden SSID on the WiFi.
Not sure why it affects 2.3 and not 2.2 but lots are complaining about it.
Will have to find out the SSID to connect

I seemed to have cured my SSID issue

Got me straight in. Once I had connected, reconnecting works fine. I even uninstalled the app to check and it's sweet as

[Q] Desire seems to restart when using 3G

I've been using my desire for about 1 year now and never had any problems until I decided to go back to Leedroid gingerbread rom and install the patches for A2SD+ with ext 3.
I was having restarts every 10-15 minutes on Leedroid, went back to CM7, currently on cm7 7.0.2 and I'm still getting restarts when I wasn't previously.
I have asked this question before and thought it was an issue with the SD card. Now the reason I thought it was the SD was when I was having loops of restarts I would take it out and it would be quite stable for a while. Formatted everything (SD and internal + cache) put on the latest radio rom and then put on the latest CM. Seemed to run fine for a while and then started restarting again. It locks up on the HTC screen occasionally and requires me to pull the battery.
I've noticed that it only happens when I'm using 3G internet connectivity. Just recently it tried to get a lot of updates and would start downloading them only to restart. It does eventually get the updates though.
To test this I can start watching a youtube video and it will crash. For example I just watched 1 minute of one video before it crashed, after reboot I started youtube again and it crashed immediately.
Can I stop log cat removing all the logs when the device restarts so I can have a look what's going on? Any other ideas on how to diagnose or fix would be much appreciated.

What's your radio?

My Radio version is
32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 and I'm running CynogenMod 7.0.3
I used something else before I switched to leedroid an old one, I changed it to go to Leedroid then changed it to this hoping it would help.

Flashed newest correcspondig ril 2.2.1003G?
Thread for radio/ril here on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902752

No I have never flashed a RIL before, didn't even know what these where. I'll give that a shot and see what happens.

RIL (by System of a pWne!^)
Radio interface layer. This is a layer between the Radio and the ROM. It communicates with the hardware over the Radio and supplies an interface for the ROM so it can use the hardware. This is similar to a driver.
Whenever you flash a new Radio, you should also consider flashing the corresponding RIL for it. This makes sure, the Radio is getting adressed correctly.

I was running the RIL suggested above yesterday, had about 11 hours and no issues, updated all my apps, was watching youtube etc.. I was trying to do stuff that usually would make it crash. Eventually I turned on my wifi at home and as soon as it came on the phone rebooted. It then proceeded to reboot every time I tried to go on the internet, with either 3g or wifi, I tried about 3-4 times. Leaving it with internet off for about 30 mins, I came back to it and it started working on wifi fine. Strange. TL;DR ril didn't seem to fix it. Seems like if I can get it back to stock I can go to the shop and change it.

[Q] Wi-Fi Issues

Alright, a long while I brought up this question as I was hoping to fix my Kindle. Well, I ended up forgetting about my Kindle, and now that it's summer, I'd like to use it again. I forgot how much I missed it.
Anyways, here I am, still stuck with the Wi-Fi Connection issues. I was on a ICS ROM, however it would continuously freeze up on me. It was horrible, so I posted asking what the issue was, and several people basically told me, flash the latest kernel, it fixes this issue. So I was like, wow, simple fix, lets do it. I flashed the kernel, and boom. First thing to notice, Wi-Fi gone. However, the freezing up and crashing stopped, suppose thats a bonus. But, my Wi-Fi was gone. I figured, perhaps if I un-root and flash back to stock it'll fix. No, that didn't do it.
So today, I re-rooted it, I've got CM9 ICS ROM on it, and I still have Wi-Fi issues. Anyone know what I could possibly do?
I did Factory Reset's, Wiped everything clean when flashing my ROM's.
Any help, or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Some details :
Current ROM : CM9
Version : 9-20120706-UNOFFICIAL-otter
Kernel Version : [email protected])) #3 SMP PREEMPT
Kernel Date : Fri Jul 6 04:27:45 CDT 2012
Forgot to add: The issue at the moment is that when I turn wi-fi on, it gets stuck at the "Turning Wi-Fi On" screen. It never displays an places to connect, and I can never actually do anything. It just stays at "Turning Wi-Fi On"
Anything else just ask.

i am no pro or anything but if it didn't work on stock or when you reflashed I would say its an internal component but dont let me discourage you because I may be wrong.

Thank you for your reply. I suppose, I should've been more descriptive of my issue.
It's not even sure if I can connect to wi-fi. It may be possible, but when I go to turn Wi-Fi on, its stuck at "Turning Wi-Fi On"

1)
IF FOR SOME REASON WIFI DOESN'T WORK ON THE FIRST BOOTUP DO THE FOLLOWING:
Enter Terminal Emulator
Type: su
Type: fix-mac.sh
Exit Terminal Emulator
Reboot
2) If that didn't work try setting your connection from DHCP to Static
3) If those didn't work do a hard reset of your router and try the above steps again.
If it still doesn't work I'm guessing it's a hardware issue with the Kindle.

I did the fix-mac.sh and it didn't work. I just want to say ;
I don't have options for Wi-Fi. This isn't necessarily a Wi-Fi issue. It's more or less, allowing me to even use Wi-Fi.
When you navigate to the wi-fi section, you first have to turn it on. Well, when I turn it on, my device gets hung at the "Turning On Wi-Fi" page. It doesn't move past that. So I can't even ATTEMPT a connection to my Wi-Fi. In other words, it's basically not turning Wi-Fi on.
So this isn't an issue with connecting to my router, or any of that. It's an issue with turning wi-fi on. >_< sorry if you got confused with that. I'm doing my best to explain, quite tired at the moment.

You should try flashing the gedeROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619550
I never had problems turning on my Wi-Fi with it. Before flashing Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache, and Factory Reset (it will wipe all your data/apps)
The ROM though tends to drop the connection when downloading gameloft apps.
If you don't want to switch ROMs you should
1) Download your current ROM again and put it on the SD Card
2) Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache - You don't have to do a Factory Reset when staying with the same ROM though it wouldn't hurt to wipe it.
3) Flash the ROM.
Good Luck

Same thing that's happening to me... can't turn wifi on or off, i get a lot of errors in logcat, the mac-fix.sh script doesn't do anything and the problem remains even when changing roms (i tried cm9, gedeROM and modaco, wiping cache/dalvik, data and system partitions each time with no luck). I'm starting to think it's a hardware problem.

I don't think its a hardware problem. Well I hope its not. Wondering if its a possibility that the kernel really messed things up somehow and its like locked. But I am glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue. Saddened that it has no solution.

I had similar issues with my phone...first reflash your rom. Reboot to recovery. Flash the kernel. Reboot. Always make sure you wipe cache and dalvik cache. This could all be happening from a bad flash

WiFi going nuts

I've recently been trying out ICS ROMs for the Evo, but decided to return to Gingerbread because ICS seems to mess up GPS accuracy, no matter which ROM I try. I'm now on my third different Gingerbread ROM today because I've run into a problem I've never seen before. When I first install I'm able to turn on WiFi and connect to my router no problem, but sometime later, the phone refuses to connect. In wireless settings you can turn on WiFi, and it will think about it for awhile, and then just stop trying. Sometimes I get a com.android.settings not responding message, but not always. Anyway, I tried searching for this but couldn't really even figure out how to word it. This sound familiar to anyone? Thanks.

Re-Install your Rom, first.
Update your Radios.
Simple.

Try what Nickitt said first, and if that doesn't work, try this out --
Go into recovery, clear boot, dalvik, and do a factory reset. Then, install a ROM of your choice.
For some odd reason, I started having similar WiFi issues on my EVO after installing the Mason kernel, where the WiFi would indicate that it's on for a few seconds, and then move back to the off position (or, it would stay permanently in the state where it seems like it's turning on). Reflashing the ROM by itself didn't work, but clearing boot somehow did the trick.
Go figure.

I failed to mention initially, but I did try updating the radios as well. Regardless, I'm not having the problem anymore, and it's possible that there was simply something in my Titanium backups (done while on ICS) that it didn't like. I started thinking back on the timing and realized that the issue was showing up only after I went through the batch restore process, so this time I only restored a few apps that had data I didn't want to lose, and nothing else. So far so good.
Except of course that I'm now having a new problem that may be associated with a2sd, but I'll post that in that Deck's Reloaded thread...
Thanks!

I had a lot of force closes after restoring ICS backups in GB. Don't think the backups are backwards compatable...not all the time anyway.

Zuk z2(Plus) Wifi Issue

Hello folks!
I recently found a strange bug on my Zuk Z2(Plus).
I was running it in AICP 20170901 build along with Orbot App. I had a situation when the phone started heating up and the battery drain became faster. As I was travelling and wanted to save the last ounce of juice, I deleted Orbot, to cool down the phone as it was continuously running in the background. My phone got switched off later, but once I was able to charge it, I tried connecting it to my home Wifi network. It just kept showing "Connecting" and later "Saved", but never connected. After repeated attempts to connect, it shows "Saved". Frustrated with this, I did a clean wipe and installed a previous backup of AICP 20170901 build which I saved a few days prior to this. But to my surprise, I was again unable to connect. It kept doing the same thing.
So, I did a clean wipe and did a fresh install of AICP 20170901 build and again, the same thing kept repeating. So, I installed the stock rom to check if it might work on that, but to my luck it didn't. So, I switched back to my earlier backup of AICP, and installed Dark Moon Kernel 004.1, But again no luck.
Between multiple ROM switches, it sometimes connects to the network and doesn't connect to the internet and then gets automatically disconnected.
Is there some fix to this. I think Orbot messed up something, and I am unfortunately not that tech savvy to find out what it did. Orbot is meant to replicate Onion Router, but landed me in a soup
Please advice.

Use some other rom... Recommended crdroid latest build... Use picogapps... And try again...
The issue could be rom related and even after trying new rom the problem still persists then it could be a baseband issue...
Try the recommended rom first with complete full wipe .. Good luck

Hi,
Were you able to fix this?
I'm facing the same issue. Tried several basebands and ROMS. Also, flashed stock rom through QFIL/QPST, but the issue is still there.
Thanks,

Were you able to fix it??? How did you resolve? After three years, I faced this issue all of a sudden after I changed my phone's battery, and tried everything with software but no fix. Any possibility that it is a hardware issue? How can it be deeply inspected to find the real cause of this problem?

Is there any fix found for this? or is it forever? Need help, need to give this phone to someone but can't fix this issue. Please help through any ways.

You may try resetting the carrier and wifi network. This may help.
