He everybody. I have a T-mobile Note 2 which I brought with me to New Zealand. T-Mobile gave me an unlock code which worked and most things are fine except that wifi wont work at all. It says it is starting then turns off. I also notice it seems to be trying to turn itself on pretty constantly even though I have it turned off. I tried various wifi repair apps after rooting the phone and they all hang on deleting saved networks.
Wifi tether log shows that starting wifi (cmd) failed.
Any advice on what I can try please to get wifi going?
Since you are rooted. Are you stock rooted or did you flash a rom?
Are you on 4.3 or 4.1.2?
Is the Bootloader updated?

Check the screenshots.
bootloader is t889uvbmd1
How about the android version ?
You can verify it by going to Settings -> About Device -> Android version.
If your phone is on 4.1.2 then you can upgrade to 4.3.
Also, let us know if wifi stopped working right after rooting and how did you root it ?

Sorry android is 4.1.2
Wifi hasn't worked since I got the phone to New Zealand. I rooted it using saferoot in the hope it would fix wifi. It is a USA phone and I am now in NZ.
Everything else is perfect.

You can try flashing the T889UVBMD1 Kernel and see if it fixes the issue, I checked development forum and the link for this kernel is not working.
You have few options here:
a) If you want to stay on 4.1.2 you can flash Mr Robinsons root 66 rom from here
or
b) If you wish to update you can flash this 4.3 stock ROM.
In either case you wont loose any data.
To flash you will have to:
1) Download the file and then extract it. The extracted file will have a tar.md5 extension.
2) Boot your phone in-to download mode by i) turn off phone ii) hold volume down + home then press power iii) on prompt press volume up.
3) Start Odin on your pc(windows) with admin rights, (right click and run as admin).
4) Now connect your phone to PC, on ODIN if you see a message that phone is connected.(ID:COM tab on left will turn blue)
5) Click PDA tab and browse the extracted file, it will take couple of minute to verify md5 and then once it's done
6) Auto reboot and F.Reset time options are checked by default, leave them as it is and make sure no other options are selected/checked on ODIN.
7) Click Start
8) Let ODIN do it's job, phone will reboot automatically.
Done.
Thank you so much. One question do I download the rom to my phone or my PC in the instructions below?

What error message do you get when you tap on WiFi icon ?

The icon goes a pale green for a few seconds then turns itself off.
If I turn wifi on through settings the button moves to on but stays grey and then flicks itself back to off after about 5 seconds.

I am not very techy can someone suggest a safe kernel to try?
Honestly I would look it up in the thread specifically for your device. Just find a kernel matching all specifications to your device and try it out. Usually pretty easy if you follow the steps provided in the op of the kernel.

I am also simply assuming it's the kernel. Relating to similar issue I have had. It seems to be at least in my case a conflicting issue between the kernel and rom. I'm having the issue again on my HTC one. Stock kernel is fine. Using a custom kernel everything but the wifi works. Seems to always come back to a kernel to rom conflict.

You're not going to get much better then that ^^^. If you still are uncomfortable with a step by step maybe a walk through video. Possibly try YouTube just type it in exactly as you are asking. All kernels through Odin flash the same. As long as the video is for your phone and the file format you're good.

I'd leave it plugged in overnight first to be sure it gets at least a good 40% of charge.
Assuming you use Windows (any XP or above will work, even on a Pentium 3 as long as it has USB2):
Download the MB4 firmware (it comes in 3 pieces, effectively meaning it contains a complete image and will work regardless of previous OS). Extract the CODE, CSC and .PIT files.
If you haven't installed and used Kies or Odin before, install the USB drivers.
Extract and open Odin.
Hold down [Volume -]+[Home]+[Power] until you get "Warning - a custom OS can cause problems...", release all buttons and press [Volume +]. The screen should change to "ODIN MODE ... Do not turn off target".
Connect the cable: after drivers install you'll see the first square under "Odin3 Model Name" lighting up.
Click the large PIT button and open the .pit, then PHONE for CODE and CSC for CSC :cyclops:
On the left side, select "Auto reboot", "Repartition" and "F reset time", no more no less.
Click the Flash button and wait 5 minutes
After that you can use Odin to install a newer stock firmware or load CWM and a custom rom.
Thank you so much all of you! I finnaly fixed my phone and got Jellybean! Thank you very much.
Reinstall the firmware...
Before you reinstall Perform a wipe Dalvik, Factory Reset...

Do this
1. Boot into download/bootloader mode.
2. Connect to pc and use odin to flash twrp. Make sure you uncheck reboot and flash twrp in the pda slot.
3. Once flashed pull battery and disconnect from pc.
4. Press vol+ menu power buttons while inserting battery (yes it is difficult but can be done)
5. Now in recovery perform factory reset.
6. Flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36388145
7. Now reboot it will act/look weird but dont worry this is normal. It will reboot and take a long time to boot.
Now you are on stock mc2 (no knox anymore). Root using cf autoroot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33278464
Now use odin once again and flash your recovery again. Now you are rooted and have a custom recovery. Oh and you have a working phone again.

Before I do all of that...I discovered I can boot into TWRP and updated it to the newest version. Then I installed the cyanogen nightly onto the phone. Everything seemed to be working ok except I couldn't get any phone signal but wifi worked. I tried loading the dirty unicornes rom and the same thing happened . I then flashed cm 10.1 and the phone worked for calls but the asop keyboard kept crashing and couldn't login to the wifi network. I tried several installs with factory resets with the same results. If I follow the directions you listed will I be able to install these roms and the phone work for calls or am I missing another piece of the puzzle?

It has been rumored that Samsung will not warrant the device if it is bricked but if the power button breaks they would most likely repair it.

Hi
I dont know what really happen to your device but here some things that might help.
1. Get the latest twrp zipfile should be 2.6.3
2. Unpack in a New directory on your PC - in this directory should be 2 files - one ODIN and one TWRP
3. Use the ODIn in that new directory only this Odin version will work.
4 load the TWRP file into ODIN
5 The only Oding Setting which should be changed is the Auto Re-Boot Option switch it off.
6 Than start the Load Process be patient can Take up to 6 Min.
This works i did it myself if any further question feel free to ask - ih this has helped a thanks would be nice-
Good Luck

This OTA will upgrade your phone to Android 5.0.1 and bring your version up to 22.21.25
You will need a STOCK phone. STOCK recovery. Your version will need to be 21.11.23.
Release notes: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/102639
Captured the OTA today from /cache using adb pull method.
My phone is the US AWS version unlocked from Motorola.
Google Drive Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwsiWWvGFo4TZ2RpV1R5LW9zd2s/view
Successfully flashed on multiple phones.
I suppose the title of the thread should say version 22.21.25, i'm not sure how to edit the thread title.
You got this ota from 22.11.6?
---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------
Wow this is the .23 ota
Yeah. This is the one everyone is needing i think.
Awesome! This is indeed the one that I've been waiting for- wanted to update these XT1064s before wrapping them up as gifts (less confusion over UI if they start out at Lollipop). Just successfully updated one of them, the rest should go smoothly as well.
The irony is that on the one I was tinkering with to try to downgrade/force the OTA now has the .17 recovery and build fingerprint and rejected this update. Not a big deal, I think I know how to recover it.
Thanks again who_ohw for the OTA!

You will have to do so from a PC probably. You might be able to do so with certain browsers and request desktop version in the options.
Is this supposed to be a flashable zip? I got 'error executing updater binary in zip'. This is using TWRP 2.8.3.0
You need to be stock. Recovery, kernel, everything. No root.

Confirmed, you can use chrome on you phone, go to the link, go to the three dots in upper right for options, scroll down, make sure request desktop site is checked, refresh browser. There's some odd scaling issues but you should see another 3 dot menu INSIDE the browser, click this, there is a download button.

Thanks that worked now how do I install the ota? I have an idea how but just want to make sure this is my first time side loading an ota and also I don't have to do a data wipe right?

There are a few threads on how to do this, but this is the most recent that comes to mind. You do not need to unlock bootloader or return to stock if you are.... stock... obviously. Start at step 3.

Forgive my ignorance re: this phone, I have a nexus 6, is there a reason this ota could not be made into a flashable zip that doesn't require everything to be stock?

I don't know. I think so, but I dont have time to figure it out. Holidays and all. You might check out Kennys thread here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/rom-stock-rom-t2970427
He's made a flashable zip out of an OTA I think.
I guess if I was on 21.11.23, then I could try this. But I'm on 22.11.6 and it doesn't work. Guess I'm still playing the waiting game.
Thank you for the OTA. Was able to flash using stock recovery over 4.4.4. Took about 20-25 minutes to install and about 5 minutes to clear cache. First boot took a few more minutes. So far running great.

Possibly a daft question, but will this work on a UK XT1068? I am okay to look an idiot for asking
Happy Christmas, thanks.

As I had suspected it would - yes. Thanks for replying, God bless you and Happy Christmas
Figured since it's a brand new OS (Marshmallow; 6.0), it'd be nice to have a thread with all info on root/mods/recovery/ROMs/etc. Share your info guys on what works/doesn't work! :good:
1. First and foremost, the MM 6.0 100% stock TAR. Thanks so much @Sunderwear
2. Sadly, we still do not have a recovery that supports this new update (the TWRP 3.0 doesn't work unfortunately).
3. Root by flashing this TWRP in Odin, then flashing SuperSu 2.68 in recovery!
4. No mods/ROMs yet for Sprint S6 MM.
Has anyone got root already ?

anyone living outside of US loses their signal after updating to MM 6.0.1?
i flashed back the stock 5.1.1 OL1 freshly, then updated to MM 6.0.1 right away without installing anything.
anything went right except no signal. i cant make call or sms...
All you should have to do is flash TWRP in Odin...which is still compatible with the update and then flash SuperSU 2.68.

I tried to flash the recovery. How long did it sit on the boot before the recovery started?
have you been able to fix this yet??

Have you tried going to options in Odin and turning off the auto reboot feature first before flashing TWRP. And then when it says pass...you manually reboot into TWRP...by holding the volume down and power button until it turns off and then hold the button combo for recovery.
