Hey I have a desire Z and my logcat says that the Wifi driver isnt loading. I want to replace it with one that works so my wifi actually turns on.
If you have a bcm4329.ko for the desire z could you please let me know?
Thanks
Isn't that file subject to the kernel you're running? Or are you stock and just looking for the stock bcm file also?

Yeah I think it is normally part of a kernel but I cant seem to get this damn wifi to work no matter what I do, so I was thinking if anyone had one of the files kicking around I would just ADB overwrite the old one and see if it works.
Try flashing one of the kernels in my signature -- they both include a corresponding WiFi driver.

Really have no more ideas to fix my wifi.
you can always jus download a rom and go to the folder where its located and take it out and push it in your phone instead of waiting for some one

I tried that too and it didn't do anything. Im really pulling at straws. Is there a program to test to make sure the hardware is actually good?
Im sure you done this already but some one is bound to ask, so ask now.
have you tried to wipe
and reflash the rom your using and try it again,

Yep, tried that twice. I even went back to stock between the reload.
One time I flashed it using the PC10IMG method and the other I used Clockwork (rom manager).
I really have no idea where to go at this point. I think I've exhausted all my ideas. Ive tried reflashing roms, kernels, and radios.
Was hoping someone had some diagnostic software that would test the hardware of the phone or something so at least then I would know if my actual hardware for the WiFi and Bluetooth was shot or not.
Thanks anyways.
Wow, I forgot about this thread over the weekend
Anyway, have you tried changing the permissions for the file? You can use 'fix permissions' in ROM Manager or clockwork or use Root Explorer to change the permissions. Of course if you're a terminal kind of guy you can chmod it.
Sometimes the permissions don't set correctly or, on some systems running linux, the permissions get changed for some reason. Maybe that's what's going no here, sounds like it anyway. Btw, make sure to reboot after changing the permissions because it won't work until you do.
has anyone fixed this issue where wifi stops working?
wifi not turning ON
Hello Everyone,
During the process of getting IP address from WiFi network, I received a "Error Massage" on my Alcatel OT-990. After this massage, WiFi started behaving abnormally. Sometimes it turned ON another time it did not. Now after a few weeks later, WiFi is not turning ON at all.
I have Tried following Solutions but nothing worked:
1. Did factory reset, erased system, cache etc and Flashed different ROMs (JB ot 990, ICS QME, QLTsar, 2.3.4, Telenor One touch 4.0.04) using Recovery many a times(From different Sources).>>Problem not solved
2. Updated my phone using alcatel update manager to 2.3.4>>> Problem not solved
3. Tried by changing permissions of BCM4329.KO, wpa_supplicant.confg etc every file related to wifi/wlan>>Problem not solved
4. Used WiFix Manager>>>Problem not solved.
Bluetooth and FM radio working all right.
If anybody knows about its solution ..please help me out.
All,
After attempting to find a solution to the WifiTether_TrevE_Mod not working after 4.3 ( 2.10.605.1 ). I have found an alternate solution to use the native HOTSPOT application and it does not prompt to subscribe to it for those of us who have unlimited data.
I cannot take full credit for finding the fix for this I had to look in the following for the XML edits: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467651&page=7
The update script is by andybones, and i modified it, and the xml.
There are 3 flashables i did put together based on this. DeODEX/ODEX versions and Stock. The first two just re-add the WifiRouter_JB43.apk and odexed file respectively depending on which you use, and also removes TetheringGuard.apk.
The Stock, simply places the origional xml file back and puts the TetheringGuard.apk back as well. That one will work for odex and deodex.
THESE ARE ONLY FOR STOCK ROMS. I CANNOT CONFIRM THESE WILL WORK ON CUSTOM ROMS.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT VERSION, OR YOU WILL GET FORCE CLOSE ON THE DIALER! THE FILES IN THIS OP ARE FOR 4.3 ( 2.10.605.1 ) ONLY RIGHT BELOW THIS THERE IS A LINK TO 4.4.2

Works great, thx! While its a bummer that the widget doesn't work properly at least the EQS tile toggles it on and off with no problem. Thx again!
Just to confirm.
you are using the Verizon Hotspot software that comes on the stock rom?
Awesome, thanks! Works perfectly. I actually didn't flash the zip, instead made the changes manually. The WifiRouter_JB43.apk was already on my phone, verified to be identical. So just had to rename ThetheringGuard.apk (and odex) and manually made the XML edits. As you mentioned, the Hotspot widget doesn't work, but it's easy enough to turn it on from quick settings.
Many thanks.

You don't HAVE to rename tether guard, I tested it with and without.
IF only the widget works, that would be great, but not too much inconvenience with quick settings, i am satisfied.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I was thinking about flashing stock rooted but didn't want to give up native hotspot.

No charge on bill
I just got my bill today as the 19th was the last day of my billing cycle, and i used the hotspot mod that day.
I DO NOT HAVE CHARGES on my bill for this just so everyone knows or is worried it might generate a charge.
Great work! I love all the little scripts you're putting out to remove all the annoyances on the VZW HTC One. I was looking for a way to enable tethering so I could pair my Nexus 7 with my HTC One if I ever had the need and came across this thread. I was about to go and flash the zip file but I thought I'd take a quick look at my current setup first. Since I am running @santod040's debloated stock rom I was already rid of the Tethering Guard, but I still had the WifiRouter_JB43.apk so I just pulled the default.xml and made the changes, then pushed it back and fixed the permissions. I decided to do it manually once I realized that the default.xml had a bunch of new settings that had been appended to it since I flashed the rom. Now the stock tethering is working beautifully. I don't know if this will help anyone or not, but here is a diff of the stock XML and the one included in this zip to make it clear which lines need to be changed.

working on it.
I'm fairly new to custom roms and flashing. On my AT&T Galaxy S3, I decided to update to 4.3. However, I tried updating ota using the About Phone > Software Update, however, that wasn't working for me (It kept saying: No updates available). I knew this wasn't true, so I searched around and found an option (In which all I had to use was the stock recovery and flash it on there, so I did. However, I found out about Knox and how rooting is not an option with knox, so I decided to look into custom roms. I got a custom recovery, noticed warranty bit 1, don't really care about that since I'm out of warranty anyways. So I flashed a lot of custom roms and their versions (Cm 10.2/11, Paranoid Android, Slim Bean, Illusion, and more) only to find out that I can't play any videos (browser, youtube, 3rd party apps, gallery, and even recording camera didn't work)(Also audio doesn't work at all). Now I want to switch back to regular stock 4.3 using the same file I used before. I tried flashing with a custom recovery (twrp and cwm) and it kept giving me:
(assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop". robuild.fingerprint")
== "samsung/d2uc/d2att:4.1.2/JZO54K/I747UCMG2:user/release-keys" ||
file_getprop("/system/build.prop". robuild.fingerprint")
== "samsung/d2uc/d2att:4.3/JSS15J/I747UCUEMJB:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update43.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted)
I searched around, and other people got this error mostly on a nexus when trying to get back to stock firmware. I found out that I need the stock recovery for the samsung galaxy s3 At&t, which I've searched around, and I can't find. Does anyone know a thread, or can upload their at&t samsung galaxy s3 stock recovery?
Status 7 is an error in the updater script. You may have a bad zip. Have you checked the MD5SUM in the zip that you downloaded?

I re-downloaded the zip (which worked before on stock recovery). I don't know how to check the md5sum (On most roms, maybe this one since this one doesn't get to the point where it checks for it, it says checking for md5sum, then later says no md5sum found and skips). Maybe this is because It's expecting me to be on the "samsung/d2uc/d2att:4.1.2/JZO54K/I747UCMG2" version so I can update to the "samsung/d2uc/d2att:4.3/JSS15J/I747UCUEMJB" version. On Keyes 3 under my device apparently my current version is:
I747UCUEMJ2/I747ATTEMJ2//I747UCUEMJ2
And Keyes tells me that my devices current firmware is not supported to update firmware via keyes. Any ideas how to get back to stock? Also, does anyone have a clue why any sound and any video won't work on custom roms for me?

I've had this issue before, VERY annoying. What I did was I downloaded a program for Windows called Notepad++ which allows you to edit the md5sum file.
What you need to do is unzip the file and search for the md5sum file and open it in Notepad++. Delete the lines that read "assert" and have the troublesome ID you mentioned in the OP. Re-zip the file and try flashing it again. Should be fine.

I already have notepad++, but where do I search for the md5sum, since I've wanted to use Odin to flash this but it isn't a tar or md5 file. Should I check the updater script? And is this the reason audio and video don't work on any custom room I try?

Sorry for sounding like a noob, but I am new to all of this. All I need is some help, I would prefer to run custom roms over stock (I like Illusion) except for video won't work as well as audio? Is there any way to fix that at least, or is there a way to fix my rom/recovery?

I am flashing this right now. I hope that this will work. It turns out that only mxplayer videos work, and no other third party video app. I looked around and these issues are most likely from not updated binaries or something, as mentioned in some threads.
Turns out that this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2252932 doesn't work on my phone since it just never boots from the glowing samsung logo. I have attached a link to my video of how audio and video don't workand and only work on mxplayer.

I got the wifi to work, but I still can't record video or hear audio. However, youtube does play up to 4 seconds of video, then the video freezes, but the bar resets to 0 and keeps moving forward and I don't see any more video other than the frozen frame. Could this be because of my custom binary count being 13?

The custom binary count just means you have been busy flashing non-official stuff. It is not related to your audio problem. Are you still on S3rx? Have you Factory wiped since discovering these issues?

Sorry but I'm gonna ask a few more questions and see what I can find,
1. When you last tried to flash the stock 4.3 update, did you use the OTA zip that includes Knox and the bootloader?
2. Have you attempted to flash the stock rooted Att S3 image without the bootloader attached. See here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998
3. Without imei you aren't receiving service are you?
The reason I'm asking so much about the stock ROMs is because somehow the audio/video issue you are having may be fixed by going back to stock and wiping everything and reinstalling your kernel again. I have not experienced an issue like this myself, these are just the steps I would take.

I'd recommend heading here and installing the upndwn4par stock ROM again. You did flash the one with the bootloader via that link you sent me. This link does not contain that bootloader. It has already been removed. Flash this and then wipe everything (cache,dalvik and full wipe/factory reset). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998. This could fix your video/audio issue.

I've had the same problem when flashing to cm11. The only way I could get it to work properly was to flash back to my stock backup and get a gps lock, then reflash cm11 again and try locking with gps. People recommend running an app called GPS status too, it shows the number of satellites available and the number of satellite connections.

I have been reading that the GPS issues are hardware related and it can be due to the lack of contact on the connector which is causing this issue. Most people were able to fix it by opening up the phone and putting some electrical tape to make a nice contact on the connectors.

I don't think it's primarily hardware related when most of us didn't have issues before 4.4.2.
I've tried numerous roms for the Sprint LG G2 that did not have GPS, but I think I've found a sort-of solution to it... I basically stole the gps ".so" files from the only rom that I know had working GPS... Paranoid Android. This was over a month ago however, and I've been reusing the same files over CM and Mahdi ever since, so I'm not sure if their updates could have broken GPS, but if that's the case I can share the files that I've been using with CM. Not sure how to make it into a flashable zip however, so they have to be replaced manually.

I don't mind sharing them, but not sure if they work on a stock based ROM as I haven't tried it. All the ROM's I've been testing have been AOSP-based... CM/PA/Mahdi/Omni/PAC/etc. I don't claim to know or understand how or why it works... but if it works for you too, great! If not, please don't blame me if it causes a brick or something.
Additionally, I don't know how to make this flashable... my method has been to extract the files, then reboot into Phil's CW Recovery and manually copy the files over with the Aroma File Manager. I included a GPS.conf file that I've modified to improve gps for my region, you may wish to exclude it.
[Edit] If this "does" work, be sure to thank the Paranoid Android team for whatever voodoo they did to make GPS work on their ROM.

Thanks, but it didn't work. Gave me a bootloop
It was perfect, a match made in heaven!
I had the Dirty Unicorn mod installed on my phone with all the modem drivers working, all my software configured. But.... it seems there were some old CWM backup files left on the SD card which were taking up a bunch of space. So i backed up my system and formatted the sd card, and when i reboot i got the "missing modem" problem, where nothing modem related works. After several attempts I was able to restore the ASOP rom and install the modem driver zip immediately after the rom in CWM recovery.
But i was missing all my settings and apps. So i thought hey, i got it to work, i should be able to run my restore again. Nope... screwed, and now i cannot even do the first fix. nothing is working.
o if any one has any tips, i would greatly appreciate it!
Tmobile T889
Running Dirty Unicorn ASOP 4.4.2 (was really loving this rom)
I am getting the "Signal Strength 2147483647 dBm 255asu" issue, and thus there is no connectivity.
My SD card is working

so wish me luck. I am getting ODIN and restoring my phone back to stock.

Why don't you try looking for your modem online. The phone should be able to flash the modem in recovery mode. Im assuming you have a tmobile note 2 so try looking for tmobile ntoe 2 modems. There is a forum post that has the modems on it.

Alright,
I just installed slimkat (it is 4.4 but only a 140 meg file) and the modem is still not working. Now it says 0db, and i tried flashing the modem.
I also switched to TWRP in case CW was the problem. But this did not work either.
the Tmobile stock version is over a gig, and here in the nether regions of the planet the connection is very slow. So ill have to go to town and have someone download it for me.
I can sing the praises of the DU mod all day long, it is pretty and super fast/smooth! Great mod features and hacks. It was working perfectly, but my SD card reported having only 2 gigs free, and after formatting it has 10 gigs free but no modem function
i cannot even run USSD codes!!!

Damn bro that sucks. I get fast good signal and lte so I would only take 20-30 minutes to download.
I would flash asop roms but I eventually switch back to touchwiz. Mostly due to the fact that I like using my headset and I need aifi calling for certain places. And the last 4.4 rom I had was omni rom but I would lose root. Dn3 rom is the best touchwiz rom but unfortunately no wifi calling
Try this link I just found it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2551748

Haha I dont think so bro. Odin should be able to fix it. As long as you havent ota update to 4.3 you should be fine. If you dont need wifi calling give DN3 rom a try. Just follow the post and it should go smooth. Just dont reboot and install mk7 modem. DN3 is cool because it has Note 3 features
to fix this issue download selinux mode changer from play store and set to permissive

Hmm did you try to odin it. Odin back to stock and try to reinstall the rom. Hopefully that should work
that is the next plan of action, but it is going to take two days to download, esp with all the power outages in Nepal

ooh damn that sucks. Hopefully you get your phone fixed
Protip if you don't already do this: especially with frequent power outages or unreliable internet connections, check your MD5 or SHA1 checksums when you download ROMs before flashing them.
On Windows, you can use md5sum in Cygwin or Hashtab (which is a Windows Explorer extension that give you a tab in a file's properties). On Linux, most distros have the binaries included by default.
