Hi,
This is an issue which im not finding any answers too anywhere. My previous attempts all failed making me try again and wait hopefully.
After i upgraded to ics (= CWM9 Beta1 of course) i have lost my ability to use Wifi... that means that when i turn on my wifi on the phone it doesnt find my connection.
Wifi is a must and this is strange why there isnt an answer to this question. What must i do to get my wifi up and running or at least find where the problem lays? I asked my ISP support so that they MIGHT be able to help but the dude on the line said that it seems ics isnt very good at wifis... i dont know if he was right or not but this definitely isnt a wide spread issue since internet search didnt show me anything much and it doesnt seem to be a complex problem either (i might be wrong). So please help me if you can.
Thanks in advance
The general section is the right place to post this kind of question and I guess you've already posted there a thread asking on a "how to" and have replied a thread on where you can find tons of information.
Basically, you need to flash your phone to a better baseband XXLM6 or XXLM8 to which will help you fix your wifi problem. Find a stock ROM with that baseband. Use the given thread I suggested in your other post.

i didnt see any posts on my other thread, unless you posted after i left... i was waiting for hours to get this fixed.
So how do i upgrade? Does this mean i will lose my ics?
Nope. there is no topic which can help me there.

hi devs!!
please admins, don't delete this 3d!!
a few days ago, me and more other users had this problem:
when i shut down my DHD, it reboots automatically after a few seconds...this issue remains with all roms (sense, miui, CM7)... i've tried to reflash recovery, format all partition and reflash rom, change radio firmware but nothing!!
this is the Thread where we are trying to find a reason of this problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014302
but we have no solution!
can devs help us to fix this problem??
this problem was appeared at the change of the hour, the 27/3/11.
more of us have changed rom, have root and engeneering bootloader, but this problem appears in stock DHD too.
thanks devs for all and for help and sorry for my bad english!
I'm surprised the thread has lasted this long...
I really do hope you find a fix for your problem but posting a link in here to a thread elsewhere will only annoy people. There's separate sections for a reason.

i know!!
but i think devs che help us to find a solution!!....in general section there are no devs!!!!!
Yep, I know most devs only look in here (they're busy making ROMs for us) but the mods will still enforce the rules. Why not PM a link to a couple of people you think might be able to help?
The issue is described in cm7's rc thread so the dev's probably know about this already. If they can help they probably will anyway.
I can't believe you abbreviated 'thread' to '3d'!

This problem does not let switch off your phone properly. I mean without disconnecting your battery. And this bug affects all users who flashed CM rom after 27.03.11. All that was proposed to workaround this is that you should set date before 27.03.11
I read in this forum that this doesnt affect people who didnt rooted their phones and didnt flash CM roms. But who did suffers from it even if reflashed original stock rom not to mention other cooked roms.
So there is no fix for that at the moment and no devs are looking to fix it or if they do they didnt came up with a solution.
So meanwhile may be this bug should be listed in first message of CM rom`s thread that if you flash that rom you would not be able to switch your phone properly or something like that...
Few n00b questions.
Firstly, how do i flash a nightly on my phone? lets say im running ofw 2.2 SEA edition? Do i follow the same procedure as if to flash RC1... do i also need to flash gapps similarly.
Secondly, are the links on quarxs' CM7 for defy thread up-to-date? or are there newer versions of gapps and nightlies floating around somewhere
Third, i have noticed that there is an issue with network and wi-fi when i flash cm7 RC1 over the nordic sbf. when i go back to official 2.2 SEA there is no hassle at all. Since i live in India i was wondering if that was the issue. I can easily take care of the network problem using "baseband switcher for defy" but it still doesnt help the wi-fi problem.
My question is.. will using the new BOOTSEA nightly solve this problem? From the name boot"SEA" im assuming its built southeastasia specific (i may be wrong).
Fourth, ive used CM7 RC1 for a while and apart from the wifi issue i got problems with camera and video... it absolutely doesnt work, wether it be in potrait or landscape or whatever setting... the app just force closes. Any fixes for that.. ive got green lens.
please help!!! and i hope other similar questions can be added by members here so as to make this thread an FAQ for distressed users like me.
stop posting same questions in different threads!
i think someone has already answered ur question
oops... my mistake.
i had typed out everything last nite and as i clicked on post my notebook froze up... didnt realize the post was successful, so i got up to it again today.
sorry.. but how do i delete threads?
Moderator please delete this thread as it has been doubleposted by mistake.
Hi I tried Android 4 from sandvold and BCM and if I enable external memory via Mount2SD I get my apps back but the phone stop to work.
I mean I can make calls but I can't receive calls and the *HOME button* stop to work
Any idea how to fix it?
Wrong forum
This isnt development thread!
What has this thread to do with the development?!
Move to do q&a forum or general ...

Seriously dude,
If anything doesnt work, you first go in q&a or general, or you could ask in ROM thread directly to dev, but WHY post in development....... and as you said, issue is fixed, meaning you didnt even try all things to fix it before posting.
No offence, but this could encourage other people to do such things, thats y its an issue.........
Anyhow, glad u fixed it.
Regards
Yasir
NB: a wrote a new thread here because 2 ROMS were affected by the same undocumented problem.
I had to do a factory reset twice, after the rom install and after Mount2SD applied
First of all hello everybody
Since this is my first post and im semi noob il try to be as explicit as I can.
I personaly own an lt15i so I have some xp.
A friend of mine gave me his arc in order to root/instal custom rom etc.
-network locked on Orange Romania.
- seems to be not unlockable (bootloader I mean) since I have no Rooting Status section in the service menu.
-2.3.3 Version update dosnt work (via phone or pc companion,it says it has the latest version )
- baseband version 7X30A-AAABQMAZM-1290_21-29
Kernel 2.6.32.9-pref [email protected]#1
Last Section (About compiling smth,its not in english and i forgot its name)
3.0.1.A.0.150
I need to get it to ICS.
What can be done?
The phone is not rooted,its in perfect state and it only has some apps instaled from the market (player etc).Except that its as new as you buy it.
Would rooting resolve the issue?
Would network unlocking?
Any ideas,sugestions or anything else would greatly be apreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Not a very good first post it has to be said. Read the stickys, read them again and once more after that. Then ask any questions still remaining on the relevant threads.

I do not understand this attitude around here,no offence but an answer would of take you less time to write.
I read all the stiky's (except for the themes forum and accesories ) and did not find any helpfull information. Been googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours. If you are willing to manualy read 100+ reply's with 1% change of finding helpfull information please be my guest (I used topic search duh)
I might be retarded but : No unlocked bootloader no kernel instal,no kernel instal no ics since its gb kernel. No official update for my phone and I suspect it might be network related.. A simple yes or no answer is hard to get in this days... Anyway thank you for your reply and helpfull information
People get such replies off me when they've clearly showed no initiative. You say you've searched, read the stickys etc but everyone says that despite the fact the fact most of the answers can be found in the stickys.
I've got nothing against People asking questions but when new threads are started on a daily basis asking about things that have been answered or discussed many many times over it gets annoying after a while, and if like you say you've found nothing relating to rooting or unlocking the boot loader that's helpful in 4 hours, then god only knows what you've been searching for.
Also, click on the first and last link in my signature.

Ok I might be an idiot.
So basicly the answer is no, maybe this was a retarded topic since SE says
In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

I thought that could be done if somthing on the phone changed,I guess the answer is no but I dont see any logic in this,wouldnt expect anyone to explain anyway.
Let me rephrase my question then,as a noob user as I am.
Why cant I OFFICIALY UPDATE the phone since ICS is actually released for this phone? If I am again that retarded that I did not find an answer on this forum or via google,I swear to god Il get a nokia 1100 and leave this forum for ever.
Just pick a ftf from the sticky in general and flash it with the flashtool, much easier than waiting, and you'd have to ask Sony why they've not yet released it.

Thank you dear sir! As far as I read I tought I needed to change the kernel in order to get ICS which is impossible.
If you had said that in the begining I would not wasted so much time and now I know more. Instead of mini raging with all that blabla like in the video. I did not honestly know anything about those ftf files,Im guessing they also update the kernel. Honestly I would of never had thought of searching for something like this.

I'll not mention that you've said you were "googling and forum searching the issue for about 4 hours". Yes they flash the kernel too, and to unlock the boot loader you can use the S1 Tool, the link to it is in my guide (see sig), which I assume you will surely have read, at least skimmed through it.

Sadly in my opinion your nutshell guide is not sticky (when it should be ) Will recommend my friend to let me try that asap he will get an extension usb .Im doing just fine with arcknight and jj hybrid . Hope my next post will be brighter (or best not even necesary )
Good day dear sir.

So you have managed to unlock the boot loader and flash the ROM and Kernel? Thanks for compliment, it used to be a sticky but I asked for it to be removed as I wasn't updating it much, but try and keep it up to date these days.

Thank you !
And the answer you are looking for is found in the sticky's (just kidding)
No,I currently have 2 Arc's (one of mine which I boot unlocked with jj and arcknight and the one being mentioned in the post) I dont have an usb extension cable and I must ask my friend the owner for permission
I have a galaxy ace i8160L, and i want to install custom roms, but i see that there is a model i8160 WIthout L (and i see other with i8160P), dont know where to start, and i dont know if i can use all the tutorials from i8160 to i8160L. I dont want to brick the phone for doing something wrong, also, if there is any way to avoid flash counter that would be great (i see a flashable for CWM but for i8160, so dont know if can be use it with i8160L)
Any help is appreaciate. thanks
Search around the Ace II general forums. There was one or two guidez on how to make this possible. For gingerbread only so far. also, I'm not sure but maybe you can use the manual flash counter reset using terminal.
oh by the way, there's a q and a thread and its stickied, any further questions that are not related to this should be posted there since most of the users are monitoring that thread therefore a better chance to get an answer.
Nevermind my sig, its my sig in XDA app.
Is pressing "THANKS" to hard to do? If you think my post is helpful then click that button! Ungrateful bast***s​
You should ask in the Question and Answer Thread, not making new threads for just a single question.
And i8160L is the NFC version, there are a few ROMs as mentioned by Dro1ne and you can try installing non-L ROMs but you'll most likely to lose your NFC functions and a little chance of brickings. CMIIW though.
Should one see another pointless thread without asking it in the Q and A Thread, don't reply to it and let the thread sink to bottomless pit of hell.
EDIT: sorry for the harsh language, it's just really getting annoying when I see new threads but just asking a single question of not the same question again and again.
ok, sorry, i search first but still no clear, i will ask a last question there.thanks for your time.
Dont worry, i understand, was my mistake. i just want to see if keep the phone or not, i already have another android, but this is just because a friends need it and want custom roms like mine.
