Hello, since ION roms started to be released, my Galaxy W, and many others Brazilian Galaxy W are facing many issues.
First is that the phone can't boot properly, every boot the apps are force closing.
Second is that when the phone boot properly, we have a black screen that completely freeze the phone, or soft reboot it.
Third is that settings aren't saved. For example, I boot the phone, enable WiFi, disable 3G, when I reboot the 3G is on, but the WiFi is off.
We are only able to use old builds that do not is ION, or a new build with a custom kernel, but is not all kernels that solve the issues. For example: CM11 build 20140109 can't boot with stock kernel or Khan kernel, but works fine with Hurtsky rev kernel.
All old builds that don't have ION, or old builds that use ION, like CM10.1 beta 2, is working fine. No problems, everything very smooth.
I don't know what to do, and for who should I ask. So any help will be very welcome.
Thanks in advance guys!

Hi All,
First of all, congratulations for the forum and great project on adroid!!! I'm new on this, and hope learn something here and who knows help in some development.
I will inform a lot of things on this post since i don't know what can be relevant....
I unlocked my phone, and installed ICS Beta from Sony, and used for a while, but, I really want to use CM 9 or 10... so i've downloaded, the stable packages of CM9.1, and CWM5 and installed on the phone as described in many places here and on the CM Wiki, and all functions work ok besides my wifi, it simply doesn't start(Don't star on CM 9 /9.1/ 10)...
Ive also installed baseband mods hoping this can help, but nothing happens....
The same thing happend with ICS Beta From Sony but the Dommlord package to enable WIFI and Bluetooth helped on that version...
So my need is to enable my wifi connection that is dead on the CM 9.1, the phone shows enabling wifi message for a long time and never starts the wifi hardwares... any tips to help me ???
I'm Using a Xperia Arc Lt15a with CMW 5+ and CM 9.1 (FXP139 for now but this happens with any version of CM 9.XXX)...
I Know that SE made diffrent hardwares to some places of the world, so i'm from Brasil, if this helps...
Thanks in advance!!
Leonardo.
No One can help??
Theres a wifi patch addon. Install that. Look at the rom thread
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
Install suitable baseband and libs if available.
Look at the ROM thread for supporting baseband.
Look at the thread for basebands and libs -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688049
Not sure why anyone would choose to flash the Beta at this stage. Flash the latest stock ROM first then CM and report back.
Thanks
Hi, Guys,
Thanks for all replys... i'll try the basebands, but need to read more about it, i don't know wich version is the correct for my device or location, ...
I want to install CM 9 because its faster then the original from Sony, i'm using, the firmware from sony but it's realy slow.. and constantly freezes...
Thanks,
Leo.

Do what I said above, I've never had any wifi issues CM9 and the reasons you are is obvious.
Hi,
I've purchased a a Samsung Galaxy 551 (I5510) (Middle east region) about a year ago and i was running android 2.2 fine for a while. When the Gingerbread 2.3 update came out i tried installing a European ROM because the ME ROMs weren't updated, it worked fine but had a weird glitch that if the screen was off (phone still working) for a while it would be very dark when turned on afterwards, it looked like this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwll8ZfgaD0
P.S. I didn't make the video, just linking it because its the same issue
it would randomly work again after a couple of lock-screen off-unlock cycles, then happen again randomly when it's off
I tried a number of GB ROMs (mostly 2.3.4) but to no avail, then finally the latest EU ROMs (I5510XWKPJ) fixed the problem, nowhere to be seen anymore.
After that i tried installing Cyanogen mod for the phone and the problem came back with different degrees:
1. Cyanogen 7 - normal boot, screen gets dark after being off for a while.
2. Cyanogen 9,10 - show Samsung logo at start, screen gets dark as soon as the cyanogen logo appears and continues to be
Any help on what would be causing that especially on the newer CM builds? and why it doesn't happen at all in (I5510XWKPJ)
Thanks in advance,
use stock gb rom XEO-KPG from here...u find no bug in it....install as one pakage through odin...
http://galaxy551.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/new-stock-rom-xeo-kpg/
I will give it a try, though i have to clarify and say that on the current stock rom that i'm using (I5510XWKPJ) the problem doesn't happen. It only happens after i flash Cyanogenmod (any version) and persists till i reflash the Stock rom then it disappears again.
EDIT: Forgot to add that this isn't a CM specific bug as it happened also when i tried other roms too (Arkas, Miui,...)
You cannot say that this is a bug bcaz no other mamber of galaxy 551 and even me also not have this kind of problem....
So I think its problem of ur phone...

No change after installing (XEO-KPG) stock rom, the rom itself works fine with no problems, same as the (XWKPJ) I've been using. but as soon as i install CM the bug rears it's ugly head.

The reason i think it's a bug because it happens across lots of custom roms (which rules a rom being the cause) and it never happens when using the 2.3.6 stock roms. And on the custom roms it only happens after the screen has been off for a while, if i set the screen to never turn off for instance it never happens, but that butchers battery life.
IMO it might be a display driver issue, but since i have no experience with it i came here to get some help
Bump, any help would be appreciated.
Hey guys, I try to do my research before posting (this is my first post) but I am stuck on this one.
I have:
PrimoU
Llior's CM9 Rom
Titanium Kiss kernel (ICS)
on Koodo (Canadian Provider)
Problem:
I was running the latest Hellboy kernel, but noticed I had better GPS signal with KISS, so I flashed back to KISS to see if It improved the GPS. It did, but now I have no service! I tried restoring to my last Nandroid, but still have the same problem.
WiFi works, but I have no cellular network connection. This is my daily use device so I would love to get some help on this one if anyone has some ideas. For now I am stuck texting on my old optimus one.
Confused!
Thanks in advance!

Well, like it's on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757323 for CM9, DONT FLASH THE BOOT.IMG INSIDE THE ZIP, and later, use Maxwen... - and that's a http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967
Also, on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687, it is almost in the first row: IMPORTANT for CM users
If you want to use CM or a CM based ROM choose the correct kernel! CM9 needs a different ramdisk."
On DL web page: http://www.mediafire.com/?lo2ctaplonbdh you'll see a lot of kernels for CM9 - it's not always the latest on that will work with your phone. Try them...
Just courious - why are you on CM9?
I made sure not to flash the boot.img from inside the zip and always ensured I used a CM9 kernel which I flashed before installing a rom. I ran CM9 with the KISS kernel originally as it was what was recommended at the time. Upgraded to HELLBOY to try out new kernel features but reverted to see if the GPS worked any differently. (Tangent: It SEEMED to be better with KISS, but i could be wrong...)
I like CM9 for the stability and less glitchy video/pano modes, which I use often.
I have since gone back to square one.
Tried CM10 with CM10 hellboy. No signal
Tried CM9 with CM9 hellboy. No Signal.
I'm at a loss as to what could be the problem...

I don't know to much about other carriers, but does your phone require a sim?
Yes. It requires a sim.
Tried the sim in my old p500. Sim card works.
Power off the phone and remove the sim for some time(10~15mins).
It always works for me
Or,there may be a problem in the sim slot.

Thanks. Tried that, but no luck.
There is no way I could have messed with the radio or baseband by flashing a kernel, is there?

One more thing that you can try:
- flash stock rom
If you don't have signal with stock rom, might be hardware failure. If you still have warranty, just go and replace it...
Hello everyone,
i have been using xperia s(unlocked bootloader) for quite a time and am not impressed by the battery life on the stock roms.
I have tried all cm versions(9.1,10,10.1) and also many other roms with cm base.
My main problem is the network and data connectivity bug on cyanogenmod.
On turning data on, i have to switch airplane mode on and off and then only data will start.
Also, on reboot network fails to load and again i have to reboot.
Fxp have also accepted this bug.
Is there any solution for this problem?????its very much getting on my nerves now.

Don't use cm base roms if the bugs bug YOU.. Go for stock based ones like xzx v2

Hi guys,
since a couple weeks I have a problem with the WIFI connection.
In the WIFI settings, I switch the settings for WIFi sleep policy to "never". But most every hour, when the display is off, the wifi connection breaks down for a around 10 sec. and the Gio tried to reconnect the the Wlan.
I realised that by using "whatsapp". Some messages came with a delay (~1 or 2hour(s))
Its not a whatsapp problem.. I checked the wifi connections on my router. On one day, I have roundabout 20 - 25 wifi connections from my Gio.
(2 other Android phone running very stable on the same router)
i had used the cm 7.2 from phiexz, than I switched to olddroids cm 10.x and now back to CM 7 from MoltenMotherBoard (Nightly 20130318).
Since I switched first time to olddroids rom I have the problems with the wifi
what could happened?
thanks for any ideas

(sorry for my english... I´m on training )
I have a problem with wifi as well... just my home wifi though when I walk out of range of the wifi it dc's the wifi as normal but when I get back into range my phone refuses to reconnect to wifi until I restart the router. I have tried various roms and this still happens even on the stock rom.
All other phones at home dont have this problem only the Gio.
Anyone have any idea's on what could be the cause or how to fix this?

1. Have you updated to the latest Old Droid CM10.1?
2. Did you format your Gio to ext4 before flashing any custom ROMs?
3. What ROM did you use before phiexz cm7.2? (Stock 2.3.x?)
4. And what version of cm7.2 phiexz did you use before flashing to cm10.1 old droid?
Sometimes flashing a custom ROM and then another without properly wiping can leave traces of the previous ROM. They may interfere with the new ROM and cause things to go a little wonky. Also, some ROMs may have wifi issues that have not been fixed. The best thing to do would be to wipe your phone and flash your region's stock ROM. After trying many ROMs, I have found that the least buggy and best ROM is stock (with modifications, of course). Even if you don't want stock ROM, I strongly recommend that you wipe your phone, flash stock, format the phone to ext4, and THEN flash your preferred custom ROM. For good, bugless ROMs, I recommend Maclaw's AOSP ICS, Maclaw's CM9, snowpluralism's S'Periance ROM , voetbalremco's Adrenaline ROM, and many more.

hi,
thanks for your answer,
yes, I formated the Gio to ext4 before flashing (a lot of ROMs are do it by it self).
Before I had used the stock ROM before I had used the phiexz ROM and a couple of month, everythink was ok.
I flashed back the stock ROM and everythink with the Wifi works fine. No kind of disconnections.
Now I flash to the "Enhanced236 - stock 2.3.6 (06.08.2012 update)" and also to the "CyanogenMod 7 | MoltenMotherBoard (Nightly 20130318)"
(first full wipe, than format the ext4 than flashing the ROM), and on both ROMs are the same kind of WiFi problems. The connection break down for a few seconds and reconnect several times (up to 5 times in an hour!!!).
I have no ideas whats happend and I dont like the stock ROM
