[Q] Crash on all custom roms

Hi everyone,
I recently acquired an X10 and first thing to do was, of course, upgrade to froyo. Although, frustratingly I am not having any luck with any custom roms. All present the same problem: the phone boots to launcher, will stay on for 3/4 seconds and then crashes and reboots. I've followed instructions accordingly and made sure to have the correct baseband but to my demise, still no luck.
Is this a common problem with this phone? Anyone know anything that I can try? I'm ripping out my hair here, and getting very fed up with this phone!!

Most reboot once or twice upon launch but then its fine. U need to be patient

I waited as you suggested but it just keeps on rebooting countless times until the battery eventually ran out. Could it be a hardware problem of some sort?

Thats a tipical problemwhen you got the wrong baseband instaled.
Flash the correct baseband for the ROM you are trying to use.

Do a clean flash with seus, then use flashtool to root and xrec. Or try to flash a plain baseband file from the collection, also afterwards clean dalvik cache.

The SE update (stock) rom is BB 54. I tried Achotjan rom on bb 54 and same problems. I also tried TWlauncher Ultima 4 flashed on BB 52 and still had the same problems. This may be a silly question but is there a suggested BB to use? Is a higher BB better than a lower one? I didn't have this much problem flashing my Milestone

Hey man the rom tells you which baseband is best. Read the instructions. If you have the same problem. Then boot into recovery and flash cobratos baseband patch

DHD Wifi problem

Hello
I have been roaming around for like a year or so now without registering cause i didn't had any problems following stuffs from here. But now...i have like a huge problem with my Wifi and BT. Around 3 weeks ago i flashed the BeatMod ICS ROM and everything worked just fine...then one day my phone started freezing at lockscreen...like it would start up, but after pushing the power button to lock my phone it won't turn on anymore (except soft buttons)...Then i went back to stock 2.2, made S-OFF, then ENG-OFF and flashed a radio (i can't recall which one) cause i tought that was the problem...indeed that seemed to fix my lockscreen problem..but then once my phone stucked and i had to remove the battery so i could turn it off...it started to freeze at bootloader and at one point simply turned on...it seemed okay....everything worked...or at least that's what i thought until i got home and tried to turn WiFi on...it kept saying error...same with BT...i have no other problem with it except those 2...here is a logcat screenshot with what it says when trying to turn wifi on...any help is welcome
P.S: i love u guys xD xda rocks :]

Seems your radio is bad, either a bad flash or a bad radio. Did you check the MD5 before flashing it?
You might want to flash a different radio and see if it helps.

yeah i did check the md5 checksum, ummm i have no idea...i flashed another radio too but that didn't helped so i restored the phone using a 2.2 WWE stock rom from shipped roms or how it's that site called...hoping that everything will work fine, but it didn't , i might just try to flash a radio again and see if that helps. Thanks for your answer

You can check in the development part of the forum and get the latest radio
Put the .zip in the root of your SD, boot in recovery it should ask if yuo want to update
There you go, should solve your problem

i just tried that yesterday...same thing...and the errno i get from BT in logcat is 19 and the wifi driver thing persists...attachment below...

How do you have flashed the radio???

i will try that patch...i reverted to stock before and i had the same issues...hope that patch will help (which ics rom thread? LC, Virtuous or BeatMod?)

Okay,
I would try another ROM, not ICS. If the other ROM works with WIFI, then will be the issue to ICS.

well try to install latest virtuous rom and then install wifi patch.

i went back to stock and then flashed various ROMs and i still have the same issue...oh and btw, my phone vibrates twice now before booting up the ROM, then when the ROM boots up it vibrates for the 3rd time....never happened like that until i flashed a radio for the first time...so idk...i think that most probably is a radio problem...and i have no idea what i could do to fix it...it's like over a month now without WiFi and it kinda kills me T_T

/bump /10chars anyone any ideas? QQ

Flash to stock / custom

Does flashing my SGY to STOCK ROM to CUSTOM ROM
many times or simultaneously can damage my phone?
such as damaging the phone modem or system?
because i tried flashing many ROM`s and whenever i found a bug
i flash again to STOCK ROM then find another stable CUSTOM ROM
again and again and again and again.

No i dont think so. I have done the process of flashing custom then stock many a times and am yet to face any such problem.
Neither did i read about anyone facing hardware problems due to the flashing because ITS NORMAL!!

okay thanks
but i think it has side effect on my phone
my 3g always gets disconnected and
it became too slow

Well.. That's normal... 100% normal...
I don't knw the reason behind it bt its normal
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**

Once you have re-flashed stock ROM update it's FW to the very latest so that the RadioBand is updated then proceed to flash the customed ROM as normal

3g speed reduced issue is also due to speed capping of your network provider. Its normal for all.

cm10 internet problems.

I recently installed cm10 on my new s4 but the 3g speeds are really slow. WiFi is slow too. I saw a forum with the same problem with the HTC one. They said it was a problem with the baseband. Any help would be great because I'm not a huge fan of the stock os even though the internet runs great on it.

anyone know of any basebands that work. I would appreciate any help

You could always try to go to a Touchwiz Rom, update the prl and profile, and then flash back to cm10. I've heard that can speed up data a bit
You also could try flashing the MDL modem with Cm10...that might help as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338919

I don't think updating in the stock rom will have any affect since the internet on the stock rom runs fine. It's only after I install cm10 that the internet starts to bog down.

I did the odin thing and now my stock rom can't use wifi. When I enable it it says an app is trying to get certain permissions and wifi immediately gets disabled. It tells me to reboot the phone and I do so and same problem occurs. I did come to find that when on cm10 the internet does work but the play store and pandora only work on wifi. I get connection errors on 3g with those two apps.

Try to flash a custom kernel or flash a different AOSP ROM.

Not sure why the kernel would affect it. I was trying to find an aokp version that would work for sprint but couldn't find one.

It could help the WiFi issues because when my WiFi wouldn't work I flashed a custom kernel and it would work.

Oh you mean for the stock rom? I don't want to use the stock ROM if I can get the play store and Pandora working on cm10. The stock ROM is saying its a security issue and not just an error with the WiFi so I don't think that would help. The problem started after I installed the modem in Odin.

For both I also recommend checking out that ROM it seems like what you want in a ROM customization, AOSP, and the stabability of CM. Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2312063 if not check the original android development section it is filled with great AOSP roms similar to CM or better.

There is many cases that aosp roms/kernals have slow data speeds. The epic 4g touch was one. All aosp or touchwiz roms with non stock kernal had poor data speeds. This phone may be different. Im running tw rom with kt kernal and data speeds are the same. The prl/profile thing is huge not being able to update it in aosp can cause problems.

I installed pacman ROM and the gapps and Google play immediately stops working and a message pops up every 5 seconds and the internet won't load. I got Google to load once and that was it. I had to switch back to cm10.

I get this message on every ROM I install now unless I restore my cm10 ROM. When I restore my stock ROM WiFi don't work.

Awesome thanks.

Not sure what happened but the error is back

No sound

I rooted and flashed a Google edition rom on my phone. Worked great. Wanted to try a Kitkat rom so flashed a new modem with Odin.(UEMK9) That also worked great. Then I wanted to go back to a "stock" Samsung rom, I choose Mike's Arhd and flashed the rom and the wifi fix for my modem.I had sound on the first boot but the wifi did not work so i decidet to flash both rom and fix again. Full wipe both in phils recovery and aroma. Rom booted but wifi still does not work and now also no sound. Tryed to flash again but the same problems every time. Flashed other roms and wifi works but I still have no sound. Can anyone help me?

Hi..
Sound can be easily fixed by flashing the right modem.. so the problem now is the wifi..
To fix wifi do the following:
Open build.prob and change this value from:
ro.securestorage.support=true
To
ro.securestorage.support=false
And the wifi will work. . Good luck

Really strange.. remember when you flash a modem to completely turn off the phone then enter the download mode (don't use restart menu to enter download mode) and when you flash a modem, flash it twice (turn off your phone after the first flash)
But sorry all that problems caused a headache for me
Btw since all of that problems happen to you with AR rom try another 4.2.2 roms and always remember to full wipe..
Good luck..

I gave up the phone for a few days, downloaded everything again and flashed and this time it worked Strange since I had sound on the first flash But who cares as long as it works Merry Christmas and Thank you for your help.
