I got a galaxy gio awhile ago and i´m real happy with it except for one problem......it seem i can´t connect it to bluetooth devices except for other cellphones.
I have tried mine with an OBD2 reader and a wayfinder GPS dongle and a Jabra headset and it doesn´t find any of those 3 devices.
Everything else works fine on the phone and as i stated it can connect to other phones thru bluetooth so it seems to be a program issue.
I really don´t wanna flash my phone with another firmware as i am happy with what i got now and i´m also no pro at reflash this phone so i am wondering if there is a solution only for my bluetooth problem?
I have tried these 3 bluetooth devices with another gio and it connects without a problem to that other one so i know the devices is working in general.
Firmware in my GIO is:
Android 2.3.6
Gingerbread
If you need more to try to resolve this bluetooth issue info just give me a shout.
Maybe someone else have had this kind of problem also!?
Thanks

Hi,
I've recently overclocked my HTC Desire HD using clockworkmod with this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835616
After that, my WiFi suddenly stopped working. It could connect, scan; everything, except for browsing and going on the market, things that need an internet connection. (Yes, I did use other things like my iPad and it did work)
Then I tried to overclock through fastboot and adb with the same link. What happened then was that my WiFi died completely; it wouldn't even turn on. Only thing it did was saying "Error" (Actually it was "Fout" in Dutch, but would probably be "Error" if it was English).
Then I did what this topic said:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993981
I flashed the new file and my overclock did change; the max is now ~1.2 ghz.
But my WiFi still doesn't work. It turned back to how it was in the first stage; It can be turned on and off, scan; do everything that it normally would, only apps that need an internet connection won't work.
Anyone can help me?
Edit: I already tried a hard reset, and it doesn't work. My WiFi and overclock state doesn't change after a hard reset.
Edit 2: I FIXED MY PHONE!! Finally. So no need for you guys to help me anymore . And please don't say I didn't try hard enough, because I've spent at least 10 hours in this problem. (Yes, I am a noob )

I just started from scrap following new instructions from a new kernel. If you want to know which one:

So I didn't actually solve the whole problem since I wasn't able to run the 1.61ghz oc, but that's ok for me. Hope this helps.

I have been having this exact same problem since upgrading to Android Revolution HD (Gingerbread versions).
At the moment, the only fix I can find is to enter:
ip rule del from all lookup wifi
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In a terminal window everytime I connect to a new WiFi network.
If anyone can find a permanent solution to this issue it would be greatly appreciated.

That's weird. I'm running Android Revolution HD since yesterday and I didn't have any WiFi problems. If I were you, I would try to reflash. Also, have you tried to flash the recommended radio in the thread? I think that one of these 2 things should work.

I've tried numerous full wipes, different radios (including the recommended one) and still cannot get it to work without entering that terminal command.
I believe there are a few people with the same problem, yet it only seems to affect UK mobiles :/ ....

What about a new kernel? Maybe try flashing this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835608. It worked for me..
After updating to the final ICS rom I noticed that the WiFi really sux big time..always dropping even when I am sitting next to my router!even more it just keeps disconnecting and connecting every minute..I tried the Wifix manger as suggested by one good friend but no go!nothing improved at all..I thought about sharing my WiFi suffering in case anyone experiencing the same difficulties or have any suggestion to sort this out,thanks alot for any help provided
It happened to me once: it kept connecting and disconnecting. Forget your network then connect again and it should work. If not, reboot the phone and try again. It worked for me and since, it didn't happen again.

I've got the same pro just like u even with Acronuim ISC V1.0
I tried everything and all the suggestions but no improvement..I cant connect for more than one minute without disconnecting..hate this

Did you try to reset your wifi?. It seems you are the only one who has this problem.

Hey There,
i`ve updated my Arc S to ICS today via the Guide here on the Forum. The Problem i`m having now is the following: My Wifi Connection on the Phone won`t wory anymore. More specifically, the connection with my Wifi Router. The interesting thing is, that it worked just well, before i updated to ICS. In the Wifi Tab it says "Authentification Problem".
I`ve rebooted my Phone twice, resetted the Router, unplugged the Power Source but nothing seems to work. Although i can connect to another Wifi located nearby, I can`t connect to mine.
Any suggestions I haven`t tried yet?
Thanks in advance.

Hey josephnero,
the fix seems useful, but how do I install .apk files without any kind of File Manager or Connection to the Internet?

Do you copy & paste the wifi password?
Had the same problem and found out that during copy&paste I get one unwanted space so the password is wrong.

Hey, no I didn`t c&c the wifi password. Just typed it in again. And I actually Triple-Checked
Jack, have you tried forgetting the network and trying again? Are you able to connect to any other WiFi?
I would also check the security its trying to use, ensure that it's set to the same on your network.

Hey, I`ve tried all the possible options that are there. The main Problem I`m having now, is how to install .apk files onto the Phone without a Wifi, Bluetooth Connection. I wanted to try the fix that was mentioned earlier, but I can`t install it.
What about USB? Or a sd card reader? Failing that do you have a data plan?

Yeah, USB I do have
But still, how do I Install an app onto the Phone/SC Card? The Phone is rootet and I have Superuser rights. Yeah, and I do have a Data Plan, but the Volume is used up.
Then just plug the phone in set the phone to debug mode and allow installing from unknown sources and push the .apk into /data/app and check the permissions. You do need to have adb from the SDK though. Have a look around on here their should a how to.

I "rooted" my Wildfire S (still s-on) and put the CM7 rom (cm-7-20120717-UNOFFICIAL-marvel.zip is the latest right).
But the BT is not working, I cannot discover anything like my carkit.
I see there is a kernel fix "cm7-kern-eca-1.zip", but I am not sure if this is already included in this rom.
Any advice? Could it have something to do with the radio?

Anyone any ideas? At the moment it does find the BT connection to my carkit but when I try to connect it popups that it cannot connect. Very frustrating.
There are bluetooth issues in CM7........a workaround is to unpair the device you are sending files with and then trying to send

It's not sending and receiving but my cars Bluetooth. I will have to revert to another firmware but it's difficult to find a good one, apparently not many mod makes are interested in Bluetooth support.
After a few months of using s4 mini on VIP Serbia, it began to shows some issue when i turn on wifi and phone connects... He always open Kies via wifi on my phone?! Does anyone know what problem is that? Is that from some apps or what?
Thanks in advance.

Hi folks,
I upgraded my N7100 a couple of weeks ago to rr-n-5.8.x. I then used the built-in upgrade function and I'm currently running RR-N-5.8.5-20171206-n7100-Final. The new ROM seems to be working well but has two notable problems:
1. When I plug into USB, Windows recognises the phone, opens Explorer but neither files nor folders are visible.
2. I'm unable to connect to the PEAP wifi network at my university.
3. (Before I updated to 5.8.5, it seemed that the phone couldn't talk to the GPS. I haven't tested my nav software since I updated.)
I previously ran a custom ROM for several years without trouble and I'm using the same USB cables and ports as I have been for over a year so I'm confident that the cables and ports are fine.
My phone can connect to WPA2 networks without a problem and I was able to connect to uni wifi prior to the upgrade to RR. My laptop connects to the uni wifi so I know that my login/password are OK.
Any ideas why I'm having these problems? Would I be best to switch to a different ROM? I don't do much with my phone but GPS, USB file access and uni wifi are essential for me.
Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion. Are you able to point me in the direction of those files? I've had a dig around XDA but the one bootloader thread I found has dead links.

Thanks for the link. I've flashed those up. Looks like my USB problem was just that I had it set to 'charge only' mode, not file transfer. So that's fixed! Heading in to uni soon so I'll get to test if the new BL/CP helped get the wifi running.
No change on the WIFI, sadly.
