Wifi problem - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well anytime I use stock rom the wifi wont connect. And when I was unrooted it still wourent connect. Im using royal glacier n I like it but wifi cant connect, only when im close to the wifi router it does.but miui and sense roms connect perfectly and being far away. Ive use apps like wifi fix and stuff from market and still wont work. And I googled build prop wifi fix and dirent find answer. Ands its not the kernel cause ive used a stock rom with tdj kernel...so my question is how can I make it work? And my problem is only with stock roms. Any way with the build prop or an app or tweak? And it connects only when im next to router but disables when im more away. Thanks

Try these steps:
Restart the router by unplugging for 10 seconds and then powering it back on again. (I'm assuming it's not a router issue but sometimes this can simply be the cause)
This may be a bug in the ROM or an error during the installation, so I would re-download the ROM, verify the MD5 sum.
In CWM, backup the current ROM. Do a factory data reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache, go to mounts and storage and format /system. (this is to ensure there aren't any files lingering on the phone)
Flash the ROM, and after the flash wipe cache and dalvik cache (just in case.) Reboot.
If you're still experiencing WiFi issues it's most likely is a bug in the ROM and I would contact the developer of the ROM for a fix/workaround.
If you want to try, you can download the Kick Ass Kernelizer script by Zepplinrox found here:
Kick Ass Kernelizer RC7
After you have the script on your phone, install script manager from the market, err, play store
Navigate to the Kick Ass Kernelizer script and tap it. On the dialogue the pops up click 'run as root' and run the script.
Follow the on-screen instructions and choose if you want I/O tweaks.
After this, in order to make sure the script runs, there should be a log somewhere that would tell you
If it isn't running from your init.d folder you may have to navigate to your init.d folder at /system/etc/init.d
Find the script usually 98 something Kernelizer. Click it and select Run at boot as well as run as root. This should fix that issue if it's not running.
And if the kernel tweaks there don't help you, it's a bug. Contact the developer or switch to a different ROM

Wow thanks for all that help!

App problem

Hey guys, I have a problem when installing new apps or doing updates.
When I try to install new apps (angry birds Rio) it will download but not install, it has done this on other apps too. I have deleted apps to make room and done a factory reset and its still not working.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have you tried to wipe the marked data from application settings? Don't know if it's going to help, but it's no harm in trying
Does it give you an error message when it gets to the install process? You could try unmounting the SD card temporarily before you try installing apps, this solved the only problem I've had installing apps from the Market.

Settings - applications - all aplications, locate marked and wipe all the data. Next time you start marked you should have to agree with terms as you did the first time.
Tried that mate, still not working

I've had this happen in the past and the only way I could get around this issue was to delete the file 'Smdl2tmp1.asec'
To do this, connect your phone to a PC and use Windows Explorer to search for the file. You will need to set Windows Explorer to read hidden files for it to find this file.
Hope this works for you too.

If the apps download but don't install you can install them manually. Using any file manager head to /cache/download , here you will see all the apps you tried installing recently. They don't have useful names but the icons should help you remember what they are.
Find the package and install it manually.

Right I sorted it. I took out the sd card and it installed it for some reason

Custom MTD Partitions for the Wildfire, My Findings

Hi all.
I'm sorry first of all on creating a new thread as I'm not allowed to add to dev posts.
I have created Custom MTD Partitions of : 140, 5
using CyanogenMod 7 Nightly: 220
(New Market)
I have tried to download a game third blade and i get an error of insufficient space
like ''Hanakie'' in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233340
I have downgraded the market now to an old one and now able to download this game.
I am going to try tonight to upgrade the market from old to new but not a fresh install of a rom and see if if Im still able to. I will post my findings when done.
ps I would like to thank all the Developers here for for making my phone awesome and interesting til my next upgrade and then will have 2 phones to tinker with.
5mb cache is too low i had the same problem
edit: cm7 should move cache files to data/local if they are larger but this dont work for me i got the low memory message
Only problem I had with 5mb cache was in clockwork recovery, I always got an error as there wasn't enough space for it to write a log.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
I have tried these MTD Partitions: 140,5 140,10 140,20 140,25 and 140,35 with same results.
Im currently running at 145,45 as i know works great, but would like to see if i can get a little more space.
I like to try everything on here lol i love beta testing.
Hi apollo, can you please clarify whether you are using any sort of Apps2SD stuff? (Except for the built in one in CM)
my custom part is 110 15 with latest cm nite

You were able to fit the latest CM Nightly on a 110MB /system partition? Did you go for a barebones build? AFAIK, the standard CM will not fit on a 110MB system partition. (Unless of course, it is stripped)
its not bearbone as such ujst took out all ringtones, all but on each alarm tone and notification tone and removed some of the not needed apps from the rom like email, music player (got power amp), cm wallpapers, live wallpapers u get the picture
hi 3xeno (thank you for your hard work)
I'm not using any Apps2SD any more as wanted all my stuff on internal memory.
i did a
1. wipe/factory reset
2. MTD Partitions Guide but instead of restoring from backup i did a fresh flash of
cm7 nightly 220
3. Then flashed gapps-gb-20110828 for Market

miui problems

hey guys miui is pissing me off big time. for the last three releases the phone app keeps force closing with a "com.android.phone has force closed" error ever since like january. thats the only problem with these releases. if i turn data off, it works just fine with receiving and making calls but with data on nothing. if i make a call i can hear the call in the background like if i call voice mail i can hear the lady being like "you have no messages" but while i can hear that the force close app is in my face. if i hit force close, the service like resets itself like the bars get the X on them and it says no service then it regains it. please help i tried copying the phone apk from an older miui release but miui wont let me install it it says its installing but then its like "app was not installed".
Well with the phone apk you'll most likely have to push it with adb or with a file manager to your system apps
You can't just install a system app the way you do with a normal app. You have to use adb to push it to the system or use a root browser to put it in the system apps, but don't forget to change the permissions before you reboot and you should be golden. You might wanna try a FULL wipe and fresh install tho
---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------
I would also recommend trying MIUI Pyromod v1.0 if you like MIUI enough to be going without data
I would try a FULL wipe, I used to run MIUI on the Speedy from time to time and never had these issues.
Go into recovery select mounts and storage and then format system,format SD EXT IF IT'S PRESENT don't wipe the SD card just the EXT. Then format data and format cache, head back to the main menu of recovery and select advanced and wipe dalvik cache.(some say the dalvik part is redundant BUT I do it anyways and have never had a flawed flash with this wipe method and I'm about 2k flashes in lol)I hope this helps you in some way

How to get the KA12/13 rom completely functional for r800x CDMA users

Hey guys I'm new! Nice to meet all of you.... here are some things you can do to make this great rom even more functional on the r800x.
1. WIPE YOUR SYSTEM ENTIRELY... Data, Cache, Dalvik.. the works. Install KA12 first, followed by doomlord's wifi modules (I used the most recent test release for the 2.34 verizon upgrade and they worked like a charm.)
2. Let the system boot up.. you will most likely get some kind of error, or it may take you to the setup screen... either way, at this point, return to CWM, and wipe your dalvik cache. Next Install the CDMA patch 9 (I used the non-modded version)
3. Install google apps, and any other KA12 zips you desire to flash. When you are finished flashing, clear both cache and dalvik.
4. Now install KA13 over KA12 system meaning DO NOT DO THE FACTORY RESET.
5. You may want to reflash the wifi modules, I do not know if it is necessary, but I did it to to be safe.
6. Reboot the system, and complete set up.
7. Using root explorer, go navigate to the system apps directory, and find a phile called SEMCtelephonyservice.apk (or something very much like that).. make sure root explorer is set mounted to R/W and then simply click on this app, and open it with the APK handler or simply click install. It will tell you this app is already installed, and you are replacing it. Say ok. Now go and try your dialer. You should only get one force close after making a call now, and it should go away forever after this... No more phone force close yay!!
8. While your in system apps folder, go ahead and delete the USBconnectivtyux.apk (or something like that) ... don't worry.. this has no effect on USB connectivity at all, it still works fine... and guess what.. NO MORE FORCE CLOSE WHEN YOU CONNECT USB!
9. With your wifi connected, go to the play store and download a free app called APN manager... install it. Once you have opened it simply import the APN settings for verizon onto your phone, and reboot your phone. Once rebooted,(you can turn off wifi now) open up your mobile network settings, and make sure you have mobile network data enabled... I allowed national roaming, I'm not sure if you have to.. then click the APN settings... you should see Verizon in there now. Make sure to click that circle to turn on those APN settings.. This will get your sms/mms up and running.
10. Finally, to get my 3G icon to show up I had to redownload the SETDNS app... I got the pro version... and when I enabled google DNS, I immediately got a 3g icon in my status bar. The second time I ran through this, I did not immediately get a 3g status icon.. If this is the case for you, just simply toggle airplane mode after setting the DNS, and your 3g should eventually kick in. If you do not get a 3g icon, my understanding is that your data works even though you can't see it, however you will have trouble downloading apps.
Thanks dude.

[How-to]How to get XT926 roms working on your XT925

I had been going through flashing withdrawl due to the lack of roms for the XT925 and decided to play around and see what worked. Installing XT926 roms is no problem with safestrap but there were always thing not quite working; only 3G speed and no wifi being the main ones. I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107662
but replacing the two files wasn't enough so I played some more and had success!
Getting LTE: Enter *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer and select "Phone Information" scroll down and make sure "LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA" is selected under "Set preferred network type:". DO not change anything else here unless you know what you are doing! DO not change anything else here unless you know what you are doing!
Make sure "Global" is selected under "Network Mode" in your Mobile Network Settings. Now enter your APN manually. BOOM you has LTE. I had to keep resetting from GSM/UTMS to "Global" after a reboot, this is fixed by the build.prop changes and factory reset.
Add or change the following lines:
ro.mot.ds.fastdormancy.disable=true
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=9
ro.mot.eri=0
ro.cdma.home.operator.isnan=0
then I removed every line that had "cdma" in it (except the one above)
Now the default_network setting will not be changed unless you factory reset after and if the rom does not have your apns "on file" you will have to fiddle to get data to work on a reboot. This is fixed by replacing the apns-conf.xml file found in /system/etc/ with one that has your carrier setting or editing the existing one.
Note: I tried doing an advanced data restore through Safestrap/TWRP and the connection on boot issue came back. Restoring with Titatnium worked fine
Getting wifi: you need a root browser for this. Back up your original ones by adding ".bak" to the end of the name. Download the zip attached (no it is not flashable, I don't have that expertise) and extract it to your phone somewhere. Copy the Set1 (cfg80211.ko & wlan.ko) files to /system/lib/modules then copy the Set2 (cfg80211.ko & prima_wlan.ko) files to /system/lib/modules/prima
Fix permissions and reboot. (I don't actually know if all four files are needed, just that it works when they are all there!)
"Wifi still isn't working!?" Compare the permissions of the new files to the old ones (you backed them up right?).
Getting rid of "This SIM card is from an unknown source:" delete VzwPhoneService.apk from system/app
Tested with "Foot Through The Floor", "wWidow" and "fusionHD" with safestrap.

mattlgroff for the clue that it was possible with his Batakang for Atrix HD release
Cambridge2009 for the hint where to start in their Atrix > Razr thread
droidrzr.com for their sweet roms!
pfak for their build.prop tweaks
Observations:
Everything works flawlessly now!
I am not responsible for you borking this process and by extension your device, always have backups to save yer arse if you do. I have messed things up many times with many devices with no sweat because I consistently backup.

Re: How I got XT926 roms working on my XT925
So far the only issue I have had is that the data will not reconnect after WiFi is turned off. A reboot does fix it and sometimes I will have to toggle gsm/utms back to global after the reboot. Not a big deal for me as I only use WiFi at home but it could be aggravating. I'm going to see if there is anything I can change in the build prop and/or more lib files to copy.
I've really been researching all over to bring it all together... So a work in progress, but definitely usable as a daily driver!

I was able to fix the data disconnects through some build.prop changes and added it to the first post. I'm still going to look and see what else can be tweaked but I'm very happy at the progress!
Added a bunch more tweaks to make the data connection persist reboot and make everything run as it should.
i can also confirm wifi worked perfectly after following the instructions on the main page i didnt have to chang apn's the ATT ones were already there then again when i flashed this rom i never wiped system just factory,cache,dalvik
So say i didn't back up the files.. Anyone know the permissions? lol

You need to mount the folder as R/W to change the permissions.

How do I do that with root browser? Change permissions? Because that doesn't work.

In my experience, Root browser lite has been pretty useless for me as a root browser...try ES or Root explorer.

Long-press a file then click "Properties", then click "Change" next to permissions.
What rom are you trying to use? I've been told that the CM10 for XT926 has a different file structure than the other roms that I've had success with. If you are trying to get CM10 on your Atrix HD you are better off using the one for the XT925:

I believe everything should work fine.

You need to change the permissions for the file after moving it. The "change" won't happen for you because you are trying to change it in your sdcard storage.
OK got the permissions changed then moved the files and rebooted and still nothing. But there was no prima folder inside of modules to put anything in.
Sent from my Atrix HD using xda app-developers app
If it's CM10 then yes the file structure is different. CM10 for the XT925 should have working WiFi for the Atrix HD without changing anything.
So I can't get WiFi Woking? I have 2 cm10 versions one only lte works and one only WiFi works.
Sent from my Atrix HD using xda app-developers app
I haven't played around with the CM roms to know how everything goes together.
I'm guessing you got lte working on the XT926 version but no WiFi and no lte on the XT925 version? On epinter's CM10.1 there is a bug that the signal won't show but the lte DOES work:
