Hi everyone. What's up? That sounds fun. The WiFi on my Gnex, Toro, isn't working. I've flashed CM10 night lies, kang night lies, and AOSP, and it didn't work. The WiFi doesn't turn on, it stays stuck st "WiFi is turning on" or goes back to off. I'm convinced its a hardware issue, and I will be requesting a warranty replacement tomorrow, but I'd prefer a software solution, as I wouldn't have to get another device. I like my baby.

Ensure you have a clean flash of the custom rom instead of dirty flash. Clean flash steps are below:
1) Wipe Data
2) Wipe Cache
3) Wipe Dalvik cache (In advance mode)
4) Install custom rom
5) Install Gapps
6) Reboot.
As for WIFI signal, it is related to baseband version. To know more which one is suitable to you, then read the link below:

WiFi is related to the kernel, stop spreading disinformation..

Hey fellow gnex community! I recently left stock rom due to freezes and random reboots. I've tried out various rom and kernel combinations this week such as xylon/AK, Purity/AK, AOKP/franco/lean, CM10.1/trinity/franco, Rasbean/trinity, PA/lean/franco/trinity/AK and Xenon.
The problem is they all freeze and reboot constantly after 2 minutes of use. I never changed the kernel settings and this is only happening on 4.2.1 roms. My favorite rom/kernel combo would be purity/AK, Xylon/AK but they freeze, wifi disconnects and never connects back and reboots constantly.
So the question is why is this happening to my phone recently and are there specific kernel settings that will stabilize the roms or is it just my phone?
Any help would be great,
thanks.
I haven't had that problem before, and I have flashed several roms (though not a custom kernel in a while)
Faulty hardware perhaps?

but this never happened on 4.1, 4.0.4 etc. That's what's worrying me.
4.2.1 isn't exactly highly regarded for its stability....
I reccomend going back to a good 4.1.2 rom. You aret missing anything anyway

I would do a full wipe and fastboot flash the stock images from Google to see if this helps. Mind you, your internal memory will be wiped so back up all of your photos etc..

Try a full wipe, and fast boot a stock image on and proceed from there.

I've done that twice already and usually wipe after it freezes but then still happens
Are you sure you know how to flash? Not trying to offend but it saves a lot of time if your a noob.
I currently wipe dalvik cache 3x, cache 3x, and factory reset 3x in twrp. I read somewhere its safer to wipe like this or use super wipe scripts or w.e
I am running the latest rasbeanjelly with latest rasbean gapps and latest lean kernel. I haven't had any resets and haven't tweak anything. May I also add that when I do get errors with roms normally when I flash extra mods I always go back to recovery and hit fix permissions. Idk why but it does solve some issues.
Good luck
Sent from a slice of Galaxy Nexus with some Rasbean Jelly!
lol. Ya I've been flashing roms for like a year and it's only recently these issues are popping up. I do pretty much what everyone does - wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash rom, flash gapps and flash kernel. I never use mods so nothing to worry about there.
Try flashing rom and gapps only without a custom kernel.
If you've fully formatted your drive, have updated recovery, and are positive you have good downloads then your problem is most likely hardware related
Try the kernel cleaner script before flashing/changing between kernels.
It's a cwm flashable .zip.
Alright will do as suggested
How about fastboot flashing the stock rom's .img-es? (Galaxy Nexus ToolKit is the easiest way to do it)

Alright so it seems like the rom HumberOS with built in kernel did the job. Been using the phone for about 4 hours non stop and no freezes or reboots so far. Finally something stable for my phone! Thanks for the help everyone!
update: After a day without any hiccups on the humber os rom, my phone finally froze and rebooted. Since I was using cwm, I decided to see if twrp would solve the problem. I restored my phone to stock and started from scratch by installing twrp. Then I decided to give PA a try and to my surprise no reboots or freezes at all but will have to wait a day to confirm.

You did restore the factory images by running the update script included in the package right? This will make sure all data is up to date.. Fastboot erase all partitions first as well..

yup did all that and everything seems to be going fine so far
So... what would be causing the problem you think?
You installed TWRP and PA both at the same as I can read in the previous posts?
So that way we will never know if it's a recovery problem, or ROM problem...
Well, as long as your device doesn't freeze and/or reboot we should be happy I guess.
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

Are you using Tasker or anything to control wifi? And have you checked wifi on other devices, meaning have you confirmed your router is actually working? And have you restored wifi passwords using titanium? I have broken wifi restoring wifi data.

No, I still had the problem no matter what rom I used even before I could install any apps. I've checked on two different wifi networks that were confirmed to be working. My problem is my wifi won't even switch on to check for networks.

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.

I'm no developer, so I don't claim to understand how all those things work. So maybe someone has more info that would help. But generally if something that did work just quits it means something broke.

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

That could be potentially great news! Is there a certain kernel I should be looking for?

Hey guys,
I installed aokp_d2tmo_jb-mr1_build-6 via Goo Manager and for some reason at random times, the phone becomes unresponsive. No buttons, combination of buttons or swearing gets it to work. I have to do a battery pull before it reboots and everything goes back to normal ... until it happens again.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what the heck is going on? Am I just on an unstable ROM?
TIA
these sound like issues a full wipe would take care of. what procedures did you follow? i would:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache
Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache
Mounts and Storage and format /system
Flash the ROM and gapps
Reboot system. Once the phone is booted, let it sit for 10 minutes, reboot again
you may have already done all this.

Bluetooth problem is with ASOP 4.2.1 builds its fixed in 4.2.2 I think.

Interesting, I tried to install it, and was successful...but the keyboard doesnt work, every five seconds, i got a FC with the aosp keyboard. tried looking for another keyboard, but i cant type it in, so i guess i may have to put the apk on my sd card...also wifi doesnt want to turn on...is there no launcher in this rom? the home button doesnt work
to add, i have unlocked the bootloader, so im thinking this is a cosunmer-turned-into-a-dev phone...but i read that the rom was hybird...i really dont like safestrap, as it takes long to build a slot, so i figured unlocking the bootloader would be easy enough...but no...im using cwm 6.0.x

Every ROM listed for the RazrM (so far) is stock based, except CM10 and CM 10.1 . All the ones posted in this forum and DroidRzr were designed to be used with Safestrap and they are based on stock. Yes, you need to do a clean wipe for any ROM you install. However, I flashed Rage two nights ago and wiped cache/dalvik, factory data reset, but I DID NOT wipe system. It flashed perfectly. After you wipe, reboot recovery and mount system. After you wipe, TWRP says the system is mounted, but it is not. If you flash CM, you will need to flash a stock boot.img before you can go back to stock ROM.

Hi and help! I haven't a clue what happened but all of a sudden I'm getting Android.Com.Phone Stopped working message over and over again. The only way to stop it is to turn off network data, clear all app preferences, boot into recovery then wipe delvik and wipe cache. After that I can turn network data back on. But it starts doing at again after an hour or so. It happens on all roms (cm, carbon, slim bean to name a few) except stock based roms.
Could it be because the above listed roms are 4.3 and stock based roms are 4.1.2? How do I fix this?

I'm getting this too and pasted a logcat in CM 10.2 thread. Hopefully the powers that be can fix soon. You might have to go back to a previous AOSP nightly/build.
I think that it's something wit the Data.
if you turn data off it should stop.
Yeah turning off data does stop it but when I'm on the road I want data. With out data I might as well go get an old flip phone lol.
Hoping to find a permanent fix.
