Unable to start Wi-Fi - G1 General

I've noticed a new trend over several different Rom builds recently that I thought needed to have some attention brought to it and just a topic to consolidate ideas for resolution. I've flashed several different builds from the newest builds to older versions and the wifi error is still persisting.

i have the dudes 1.3rc2 and i redownloaded it and reflashed it and wifi works now

Reflash the new radio.
Worked for me.
If you have The Dude's rc1, make sure you upgrade to RC2 too.
Also, if you've used earlier "bluetooth fixes" (or the rom you choose did), update that script as well.
All the files you need are easily found. PM if you have trouble with that. I'll be glad to help you find the files you need and get you going through PM so that we don't clutter up the board.

JF1.5 w/A2SD market shows apps installed but cannot download.

Hi folks,
First I wanna take a moment to thank the community for all the great work.
with out your hard work and excellent tutorials I would not have been able to do this on my own.
I Originally had JF1.42RC33, and had used MarcusMaximus's AppstoSD application found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3627492#post3627492
When JF put out his 1.5ADP recently I went ahead and flashed that without wiping. I also updated the Radio immedietly after flashing JF's ROM. Everything was working fine at this point.
Then when johnowa636 posted his Aero port based on the JF build.
Found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=511183
I decided to flash that, because I really like Aero. Everything at this point was good, with the occasional forceclose error coming from com.vending.something (sorry i just don't remember the excact error)
So recently when Ultra Spikey posted his Aero theme for JF1.5
Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482799
I decided to Flash once again the Original JF1.5 I had downloaded from JF's blog. and then I flashed the theme created by Ultra Spikey.
Everything seems fine, but it's not. All the apps installed work and function as they should and the Market sees all my installed apps and purchased apps. it sees them as installed and some have updates available.
The problem Im having is when I clik on update, I get a starting download, but it just sits there and never downloads. I've tryed on both 3G and wi-fi and still it is not working. I also tryed to just download an app i didn't have. and also it would not download.
If anyone can help guide me in the right direction so I can learn what is wrong and how to fix it, I would really appreciate it.
I have the SDK installed in windows XP 64bit and also have a drive I installed Debian 5.0 on. I installed Debian so I could partition the SD, but Im a totall newbie to it.
I hope I've provided enough info. If there is anything else I can add please let me know, And thanks for taking the time to read this.
Something similar happened to me today after I (finally) got A2SD working on JF1.5. Apps were downloading fine initially, but then stalled. Got stuck on the same "Starting download..." step just like yours did. I left it there, remembering people having a similar issue a month ago or so, and eventually they downloaded and installed fine.
Is it just the market throttling people who download too many apps within a short time frame?
Off-topic question. Does the Aero v1.3 theme work with Open Home, or is it purely for the stock launcher?
Thanks for the reply ^^
I'll try just waiting and see if the download issue resolves itself.
I do have open home installed. it seems to work just fine with Ultra spikey's theme. i've a atached 2 screenshots.
Problem is fixed.
waiting did not solve the problem I had downloading apps.
Having no other input for ideas on how to go about fixing this I simply wiped, Reformated the ext2 partition ( just to be sure I started with a clean slate ), and reflashed JF1.5.
I then Applied the Aero theme and Finally used the A2SD method found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512743
All is working well
I would close this thread, but I do not know how.

gapps/google talk/market/acore crashing/not working

Hi all, i have been having a very bazaar problem lately...When my phone boots up i get a pop-up message indicating that the gapps process shutdown unexpectedly...and sometimes i may even get a acore crash too. Applications from the market do not download...when i select my download i will end up getting a gapps crash and then the supposed download just sits there saying "starting...". Google talk doesn't even open! It will just say that the process quit unexpectedly. Even after a fresh install with factory data reset all these problems will continue. The initial boot up screen/tutorial will even show a gapps crash. I have tried with 3 different versions of cyanogenmod all with the exact same problem..Each version i've tried with a2sd enabled and disabled, formatting the partition each time before a new install to ensure no data carry-over issues. I don't know what to do. To me it seems like it make be something on googles side...but i can't for the life of me figure out whats causing these wild problems. Help would be very much appreciated.
ANDROID Market problems
I've recently had the same problem with the market getting stuck on "starting download". I thought it was something I modified as I'm putting together a STARGATE theme of my own based on kron2's work with this site and the theme for "Open Home" for DWANG's newest ROM. What worked for me was going back 1 restore point at a time till I found one that didn't have the problem (NANDROID backup). I also had luck with flashing DWANG's original unmodified ROM 1.17.1. I had the same problem when I flashed 1.16 ..weird. Up till 2 days ago I didn't have any problems changing anything in it. Others have said that they tried opening G-Talk at the same time and some how going between the 2 the problem would right itself. If you find out anything definite about what the exact problem is let me know as I'm going to keep looking for the answer myself.

I have searched and it seems many people have the Market/Gtalk problem.
I have the same problem (with an Eclair 2.1 Cyanogenmod rom) and I've not been able to find a solution. Wiping the cache makes nothing.
Anyone knows how to solve it?
Huh. I had a problem with the market at first with cyan 5.0.8 . I went in the terminal and ran fix_permissions after su and haven't had any problems since. Might try that

If Evo gets gingerbread will that fix our bluetooth problem.

I recently read that gingerbread will bring with it new bluetooth functionality. Will this replace the stock bluetooth. I specifically want to be able to use the wiimote app without having to root.
There is no bluetooth problem. Sense does not support that type of bluetooth profile for the Wiimote to work. If you want it to work, flash Cyanogen Mod, MIUI or any other AOSP ROM.
HELP!!!
So I am new at this so I am sorry. I downloaded the new gingerbread and google package onto my MAC and then placed in onto my phone. Then I went to set it up and when I would pick the file off the SD and it kept telling me no data found I tried several times and kept getting the same no data found. What nexy?
Why exactly did you go search out a completely unrelated 7 month old post to revive for this?
Try posting a new thread, since you question is unrelated to this topic. We'll try to help you out there. But welcome to XDA.
Atleast he searched if you're stock, you can just upgrade to ota by going to system updates in settings
Gimme a couple a days to come up with a new sig that is cool.

Too many issues so few roms

3rd thread, about 4th rom flashed
constant issues with builds. have gone from stock to:
cm 6.1.3 -apps crashing, random crash notices i.e "phone book has crashed force close" - "the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly"
cm 7 - random reboots, opening browser caused power cycle, wifi issues, lag (thread posted, no solutions at the forefront)
currently on tripnraver pre release. now another issue. no signal what so ever.
original baseband on this xperia x10a is .55. it is suggested to use with bands 52 or 49.
loading either of these basebands. which ive done. doesn't seem to fix the no signal problem. the description states should be backwards compatible even if appropriate bb is not installed on device. yet no luck.
attempting to flash either baseband fails to resolve this problem. currently trying to flash back to stock and try another full reinstall and baseband flash in flashtool.
any ideas would be a great help. having to flash x number of times between roms is getting quite time consuming
thanks everyone.
if you want to stay on the miui rom, you can flash the baseband patch located here and stay on whatever baseband works best for you (I'm on .55 and find it fantastic), then when you load the rom, go to dev tools>bad behaviour>crash the system server.

Otherwise, I would recommend wolfbreaks cm 6.1.3, as it is the most stable. You must have done something wrong during installation as I never had an issue with his roms.
The only issue I have ever had with any rom is MiUi and thats because I used the wrong baseband. You must be doing something wrong for you to be having problems
if you want, try this flash, it's trips miui pre-final with the baseband patch implemented.
http://www.multiupload.com/KCKE9K2WKN
worked with my .54 baseband
thanks so much for the links to the baseband patches. i remember coming across a thread that posted it but unfortunately forgot to book mark. so im definitely going to go ahead and try with the patch installed. hopefully all works well
each rom ive flashed has been done properly according to instructions. cache wiped, dalvik, and full reset as per menu options in xrecovery.
one way or another i experienced lag for the most part, and as mentioned some random crashes. never had reset on wolfs rom just error messages at times. trips rom worked excellent, smooth and quick. hopefully with the patch implemented everything will work flawlessly
thanks you guys
*Updated
Flashed over rom with baseband patch. signal working. everything running smooth.
except for when using camera zoom. zoom default displays 0x. as soon as the option is selected it spawns an immediate force close
any patches? or similar outcome for anyone else?
i will outline my steps below so everyones up to speed on how i performed this flash.
- flashed back stock in SEUS
- root with one click (success)
- installed busy box (market)
- installed xrecovery apk
- booted into xrec
1. full factory reset
2. wipe cache
3. wipe dalvik cache
4. wipe battery stats
5. install custom zip from sd card
6. selected trips rom with bb patch implemented
5. reboot
Camera zoom doesn't work in most ROMs yet and the lag you were experiencing was likely just the FW "settling" it can take a little bit and a couple reboots sometimes for the phone to calibrate itself properly.

thanks cmoney. maybe ill try my luck with cm7. give it a few reboots and hope for the best. great rom. im really loving trips iphonesque style
clean smooth and quick. everythings working great. hoping the zoom may get fixed soon enough. only other inquiry i have with regards to this rom is the apps2sd.
this feature is essential to myself personally. and it is not working as ive noticed on this rom. ive read a thread with regards to a fix for the last release. i checked the settings for an enable option in case the feature requires being manually set as active but nothing listed. within sd settings state reads as unavailable. if anyone has an answer as to whether this fix will function with the current pre release. ill be going ahead with completeling the flash and reporting what i find back on this thread.
thanks again everyone
Try Wolfbreaks rom. It's very very stable for me. It has cam and everything upto date.
im going to flash back to wolfbreaks updated 6.1.3 unless anyone can point me in the direction of a fix for trips rom.
the smooth and fluid feel of trips rom was brilliant. i am hopeful someone has directions for an apps2sd fix as i have flashed the build twice and the same issue has occured.

works for me on trips newest....
i just downloaded the new version 1.0
this is ridiculous. without the baseband patch. crash system server. no signal
now apps to sd is saying "apps2sd is not supported on this device"
this is an xperia x10, so obviously there must be something wrong here.
can anyone elaborate on exactly what to do about this because im going to attempt to flash back the rom, flash the bb patch right after, reboot. i assume this will only solve my signal issue. but this apps to sd is getting extremely frustrating and i can not figure out why it is not showing an enabled status.
- Flashed 1.0 with baseband patch - network signal resolved.
- apps to sd is STILL not working. and i really dont know what to do about this. everything else on this rom is perfect. is there something im missing? i came across a patch for apps2sd fix but this was for a previous version. would it be needed here? is there a setting that must be enabled first in order to start apps to sd as a service.
- as mentioned previously within the main menu, under sd card settings. message states "apps2sd is not supported on device" and on previous build would display "apps2sd unavailable". its simply impossible that the phone doesn't support it. as with every other rom the feature has worked. froyo would support it. the question is how do i go about enabling said feature?

I dunno man, it works fine for me, but I copied data from my 0.3.2 xrecovery image, so that might be why. try flashing that apps2sd fix for 0.3.2, should work fine
damn it. i just found that thread. found the links to the fixes. so far ive tried miui32_a2sd_fix.zip. and flashed that over with xrec prior to reboot. which did nothing.
there are two more links so im going to try those two flashes as well and hope that one of them will do the trick. if its working when utilizing .32 patches then ideally the bloody thing would have to work here. thanks for the input though dtox. much appreciated
I don't know what else to suggest man
From the feedback I see in the miui thread, everyone else is reporting it working!
Did you factory wipe, wipe cache partition, and wipe dalvik cache before install? then flash the miui 1.0.zip, and flash immediately the baseband patch then reboot into the rom.
Remember not all apps allow apps2sd so use something like android system info, go into the applications tab click on one, click manage and then see if the option "move to sd" is highlighted. Like I said check a few though, not all apps can be moved
i just replied in the dev section lol but yes i have gone ahead and checked the applications menu. specifically downloaded a file i have moved to sd on a previous occasion from the market.
nothing
the "apps to sd" selection is completely greyed out. no matter what application i click on or download. i did a full wipe, full install, and selected the apps2sd fix immediately after rom and bbpatch flash, prior to rebooting. issue still remains.
we'll see i guess. thanks again dtox

Try it again but without the fix...
i did that to it doesnt work i get the same message displayed
i tried with fix and without. another thing to note is that the rom itself says it should work with a different baseband as it has elements of unified. (which it doesn't) i had to flash the bb patch to get signal.
im not sure whats up with this but until i figure it out for a certainty ive flashed back over to wolf breaks rom. hopefully something will surface and i can give trips rom another go.

No idea man, like I said it is fine for everyone else so I'm so no big development will arise that will make it function with your phone....
maybe it has something to do with 10a. i dont know. but the point is it shouldn't even be doing this regardless. hypothetically if its froyo and it has apps2sd built in. it should work. its not the way ive flashed. the phone supports it. so my only conclusion the rom must not be as compatible as stated. and from reading different posts about the prev builds sometimes the patches worked at other times they didnt. and also the fact that the rom is claimed to work without the need for a bbpatch. yet without the patch instaled phone caught no single. i guess certain unexplainable glitches can be bound to happen at times but any how ill give it one last go.
if nothing comes out of that then im giving up on that build because it seems relatively hopeless.
lol I'm using an x10a...
Still man you're the only person reporting this. Don't you find that strange? What baseband are you using anyhow?

[Q] Liberty3 v2.0gold hates TBH wifi patch?

Ok, here it goes. let me first say that I am just learning alot of this stuff. I'v had my DX for almost a year now and had it Z4rooted and the tether apk applied in no time at all then came the GB update which was actually pushed onto me. So be it.
I have been watching the forums and reading posts off and on since the update, waiting till another reliable tether patch came out. I have the radiocomm app but was always leery of using it with my limited knowledge in this field.
Today after alot of reading I decided to install Liberty3 v2.0 Gold and did so with no problem whatsoever. then I continued reading and then decided to continue on with 3GHotspot.zip and TBH_DX_Tether_Patch_1.0.zip in that order. I did it through the built in ROM mgr. in liberty3 in the rom toolbox. with reboots in between.
I then went into my apps list and clicked on the new 3G wi-fi tether icon and was immediately shot to my boot screen animation. Thinking this was a fluke I attempted it 2 more times with the same result, Reboot. After this I noticed that I was on 3g data and no longer connected to my home wi-fi router I went in and tried to turn that back on but it won't even try. I'm locked out of wi-fi now as well.
I then turned to my friend google and started looking around and found one post and only one posting listing at mydroidworld post# 35944 that had this link "3GHotspot Unpatch --- Download" but that link was broken because of it being a megaupload link (which we all know was seized by the feds)
I have no idea what to do to rectify this situation. I am all for re-flashing the ROM and plan on doing that but I would like some guidance on this before I start messing things up worse than they already are. are there uninstalls for both of thes zips? if so where? have either of these altered my radios NVM authentication strings with these hacks and patches? can they be undone? please help.
Nope, no uninstalls for those zips. At least not to my knowledge.
Ok, I ended up having to SBf back to .602 with RSDLite 5.4.4 and then take the OTA update to .605.
I then re-flashed the Liberty3 v2.0Gold and then through the built in ROM Mgr. I installed the WugPacked GB Tether Patch.zip and everything worked out great. working free Wi-Fi. Thanks to those that both helped and wanted to help but forgot to post anything in the space provided.
Issue solved.
