Nexus One - Wifi Broken on NEW device???

What the -----???
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-VmhujOG4M
Is there any way to fix this?

The title of the thread threw me off, then I checked out the vid and realized you meant WIFI... Anyway, yours is the only phone that I've seen it not work on... so YOUR phone is a piece of ****, and you should call HTC and have them send you a new one.

Have you tried changing the routers wireless encryption method (WPA/WPA2). (Just a guess)
Only time it rebooted for me was when It was low on memory and I tried starting the camera app, it hung a few times then reset.

Yes. I even tried disabling SSID broadcast for my router.
Note that it doesn't even GET to scanning for access points. It just says "Unable to start Wifi" and then reboots.

Just reflash everything. The file is floating around xda.

Is this it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
If so, doesn't that require rooting? Because if it does, voiding the warranty wouldn't exactly be the smartest thing to do right now...

Have you tried hard reset your Nexus One?
Please note that all data will be deleted from the Nexus One as a result of this procedure. This process does NOT delete data stored on the microSD card. We recommend backing up all of your personal data before proceeding.
1. Turn the power off. If your Nexus One is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
2. Hold the Volume Down button
3. Press and release the Power button
4. You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
5. Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
6. Press and release the Power button
7. Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO
If you selected YES, all data including third-party applications will be deleted from the device. Once the wipe is complete, the phone will reboot to factory fresh state.

I wouldn't do that. I would just send it back and get another. I wouldn't root it until you're sure it's working 100% before hand.

1. Turn the phone off. If it’s frozen in the on state, pull the battery.
2. Press and hold both the Home and Back buttons simultaneously.
3. While continuing to hold the buttons, press the Power button.
4. Release Home and Back.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the hard reset.

Doesn't do anything. (Are you sure that isn't for the G1? Because I don't think the buttons are active if the phone is completely off...)
Besides, I'm already doing a hard reset via Volume Down + Power (see first 15 seconds of the video).

I even tried Settings -> Privacy -> Factory Data Reset. Wifi still broken.

Just get it replaced by HTC, the fact that your the only one posting this issue, sounds like a 1 off problem. These things happen, just sucks when it's you.

If it's an official signed image it will work on any Nexus One. The rooting allows unsigned images to be flashed. Signed (official) ones will always flash otherwise you'd need to root to install an OTA update, which would be insanity.

Had the same problem with my phone ( got s**t scared, I thought, I would have to go through the pain of returning), i just kept rebooting................ until 5-6 boots later it just fixed itself. Now it works perfect.

Yup, that's what I was already doing in the first 15 seconds of the video. Just wanted to make sure.

This maybe a dumb question, but have you tried it on different networks, besides the one?

I don't get the chance to try it on *any* network.
- I press to turn on Wifi.
- 5 seconds later, "Unable to start Wifi".
- 5 seconds later, freeze.
- 5 seconds later, automatic reboot.
At no point do any networks even show up.
[Edit]: I've even tried unplugging the power from my router (ie completely off).

just call HTC

Your phone is definitely messed up, but just wanted to correct you. Volume down + power is NOT a hard reset. That's simply a soft reset or reboot. A hard reset is what we usually call a system wipe. You can either do that through the phone (Settings, then Privacy), or as someone suggested on bootup.

Stupid Problem with P3452

Hi all
first post and i got an interesting problem with my phone which i qualify as stupid. It all started when when my virtually keyborad started becoming unresponsive and when i tried to do a factory reset, i could not enter the 1234 number to start it. i left the phone for a while and then i could not get into the setting even . But i could receive calls but i could not call since i could not access any numbers on the dial pad( by pressing on the numbers of coruse but from dial log screen i could)
Anyway long story short while fiddling with the phone , i thought the lock feature was on that is why some of the touch functions was not totally responsive but to my sadness, i activated the lock and now the phone is stuck on the front page and i cannot access anything since i must press unlock at the far corner of the down screen but stupidly, while pressing on the unlock, since it is unresponsive, i cannot unlock the phone to get to the normal menu and so on.The only thing working is the square pad which tells me to press cancel then unlock to free the phone for normal use
By the way the lock feature is the one that blocks the phone so that you do not accidentally press on the touch screen and activate a program and not the lock thing operators put to limit your phone
I want to know if anyone can help me unlock the screen so that i can reset the phone or alternatively any other method via usb to reset my phone to factory settings. Any special buttons on the phone i can do to do that?
I tired leaving battery out for 24 hours but that did not work to unfreeze the touch buttons
Was thinking to reload the windows mobile completely via the micro card (which i read here) but i am not sure it will work or i fear it might brick my phone
Any suggestions will be welcome please.... thanks

Use myMobiler to control device from Pc through usb
Good luck
Ps: you'll probably have to change digitiser afterwards

Well tried the mobiler but the thing is that it asks the phone to allow the program to conenct and i cannot press yes on the touch screen since it is frozen or something so i am stuck again.

Very strange, it doesn't ask anything on my device...
Why don't you hard reset: press green and red buttons and while pressing, poke the stylus shortly in the reset hole then release the 2 buttons. It will ask something that you probably won't see, just press the action button and wait for it to restart.

Don't flash another on just yet - it may well cause issues as it sounds like your digitizer is broken. Don't hard reset either
Does it pick up anything at all? Have you tried tapping all over the place in that region to try and get a response, sometimes just under the screen also works. Do you use a screen protector? If not, try it with one, if yes, try it without, it may be interferring with it, or it may help the touch be picked up by the phone (Stupid, I know, but this is something I found to work before with my elfs, and omnias)
When it is locked, is activesync picking the phone up? You may be able to put the remote.exe into the windows folder (for myMobilier) and do it that way.
A digitizer costs about £6-£10. But due to the age of this device, as sad as it is, I would suggest trying a new phone out if funds allow for it.

ok so far i tried the hard reset (red button and green and pressed the on off button but nothing. When i press on off button alone it switches off but not hard reset. I did not know i had a reset hole at the bottom of the phone.I did that with red and green button but nothing. Only when i poke the hole alone it does a hard reset i think but when i switches back on it is still unresponsive and locked screen
I tried poking under screen protector nothing. Also i think screen is still responsive because when i tap on it, the screen lights brighter
I tired putting remote exe file on the phone( active sync is working and i can read files on the phone) but i have two remote files..which one to use ? the one that ends with 40 one or 50 .Also where to put it specifically..which folder.I tried my windows mobile based device but nothing.Also tried program files and data application nothing.
Mobiler cannot connect since from pc alone because it asks my phone permission
and i cannot tap yes to accept program.
so any more suggestions please

Hi
Maybe I wasn't clear enough, here's the exact procedure, it should work since you have to use only hardware buttons:
Hold down send/reject buttons (green/red at the front) and reset with the stylus; release the stylus but keep holding the buttons till you get 'this will erase all your personal data' message, then press 'action' (big front button) to hard reset.
If Hard reset doesn't work then your device hardware is faulty.

If he hard resets he will liekly not be able to align the screen on initial setup tito12.
Avanisha. If you try to run one of the remote.exe it will say this is not a valid windows application, thats the one that needs to go into windows on your phone.

Hi captainstu72, i was under the impression that he messed up something in his system so a hard reset would hopefully solve the problem. In case he still can't align the screen after HR then he has to replace the digitiser. Mymobiler will not solve anything, pls read the 1st post: he wanted to do a factory reset. He just have to sync before HR.

thks tito 12..problem was solved with your help.J ust did not get the steps of hard reset right. Phone is working ok now and screen is ok as well as tap function. thank god i don't need a digitizer. thanks to captainstu72 for the help as well .You were right tito..seems i ran a program and then all hell broke on my phone. I wanted to factory reset but as you know the pad was locked.

Glad I could help, enjoy your device

Ahh okay, guess i mis read something! Sorry
Glad its all sorted though, I was just concerned he may end up in an annoying align screen loop

[Q] Nexus stuck on 'X' screen, even after full wipe

So, a few days ago, I started having some problems with my stock Nexus 7 (not unlocked, no ROMs or anything like that). Some apps just wouldn't open, they would force close within a second of opening. Anyway, I think it might have stemmed from the game "Let's Golf 3", as problems started after playing that, and when going back in to it after a day of issues, a message appeared saying "Unfortunately, launcher has stopped" - it gave me the option to report or cancel, but whatever I pressed, the message popped back up. I pressed the sleep button, which seemed to turn my Nexus off somehow.
Then, when trying to to turn my Nexus back on, it just stays on the 'X' screen. I have done a factory wipe through the fastboot menu a few times, but it still stays stuck on the 'X' screen. To turn it off, I hold down the power button, but it just starts the process again automatically. The only way to actually turn the device off is through the fastboot menu.
I have seen talk of 'factory image' and drivers etc... but I am not too comfortable with that sort of thing. I know the basics of troubleshooting devices, but not much more. I am very wary of doing anything more than what the device provides me with.
Any idea how I can get my Nexus started, or am I going to have to look for a replacement?

If all else fails, then flash stock rom. If you're reluctant to do it the fastboot way, use toolkits. But it is very easy to flash a new stock rom. Go try it.

Flashing the factory image for my N7, how do I know which version my nexus is? i.e. 4.1.2 (JZO54K) or 4.2.1 (JOP40D)?

Use the one you like, just choose the right one for grouper -> nakasi (wifi only) or nakasig (with simcard)
4.2.1 is the latest Android version...

I too had the same problem. Tried everything. Finally gave it to ASUS service centre in Nehru Place. They will replace the mother board. May take 15 more days. So sad!

Okay, now the thing won't even turn on.
Holding the power button, and other combinations, nothing happens. No image comes up when charger is put in.
Feel like the thing is dead. Probably going to have to get it fixed or find a replacement. Don't want to spend too long without my Nexus

FYI,
The tablet can "play possum" when it is in APX mode. (Which is easily entered from a cold start condiition with Vol-Up+Power) By that, I mean the device is on, but absolutely nothing ever appears on the screen. The only way to detect this is to plug it into a computer and the unknown APX device (USB Hardware Id VID_0955&PID_7330 ) will show up.
The only way to exit that mode is to hold the power button down continuously for 15-18 seconds. [size=+1]IF[/size] that happens, pressing the Vol-Down button immediately after the Google logo appears will pop you into Fastboot mode.
But, given that you have prior experience with other odd happenings on the tablet, the above hypothesis is a long shot, I'm more inclined to say "It's dead, Jim".
If everything fails let it sit for 3 hours on the charger (as long as it is not overheating or something) and try a few more things one last time before you ship it out.

Call Asus first. Make sure to let them know it is less than 2 months old. If they want you to perform the return through the original retailer, they will tell you. But it's best to eliminate any other middlemen if that is possible, as I suppose that the tablet ultimately goes back to Asus anyway.
(Might be different through other channels, e.g. PlayStore - I dont know).

So far as i know is that sometimes the phone just doesn't want to accept the new display and then you gotta perform a soft reset so that old data maybe also related to the display are getting removed and that the phone Might accept the part then. In most cases this works like that hope that it works by you too. if you cant see the window to type your pin then try to find a video or a image from the lockscreen and enter your pin. Maybe you can do it if you can blind remember how it looked like:good:

Lemfo lem7 screen locked and factory reset

I bought a Lemfo lem7 smartwatch yday through aliexpress. During settings I switched the screen lock option and now cant unlock the screen doing whatsoever. I have rebooted by pressing the power button to no avail. Can anyone help? How can i do a factory reset as this watch has a single button?

About the same question
I got mine ordered at Banggood 2 days ago, and tested it's feature's without SIM card so far. Last test was company email configuration using exchange account setup. All worked out fine except the required pin-code unlock to start Andoid (after reboot watch).
After a while i got annoid to use the pincode input, and liked to get rid of the exchange account so i deleted this account in my LEM7.
But next reboot, i still got this pin code input screen but without onscreen keyboard !!
So the same question as topic starter, how to restore - do a factory reset with only one physical button ?
Or using the supplied smartwatch-dock with USB connection at Windows computer.
What procedure ? Software ? How to obtain factory ROM not having any backup ?
Next i will send Banggood.com service request.
thanks for any support , Hans

Yeah. Anybody knows please respind. How to do a factory reset with one physical button?

Have anybody found the solution to rsset LENFO LEM7 physically??

Go to proboards, maybe they can help http://roundandroidwatches.proboards.com/thread/2252/lemfo-lem7-discussion-thread

Hello,
I guess you have to hold the power button in booting process. So long pressing power button for 10 second to reset watch and then during booting again long pressing power button. I guess then you will see new boot menu where will be HARD RESET option. This process is more or less same for all Android devices
Good luck,
Marek

And how would this fix a device what does not start Andriod before entering 4 numbers at the same device what does not shows a keyboard to enter these numbers ?
No, neither a solution.
Meanwhile i've returned my LEM7 to supplier Banggood, got my money including shipping costs refund. And have bought a THOR4 smartwatch instead. But i would not try to enable the security setting to input a pincode anymore neither at my current THOR4 device.
Another thing, experience of the passed weeks having a 'cheap' smartwatch with all it's features including 4G , most apps running on a small and round display and very tiny onscreen keyboard are hard to use. Or not even to install when required to tap at YES / NO the yes or no is not visible on the screen neither full round or squared display setting.
Using a 2 (micro) sim card of my provider, can only use one device (watch or smartphone) at the same time. Have to set one in airplane mode to use the other as a phone .
And have you ever entered a password at onscreen keyboard on 1.34" round display ? not easy done for shure i can say !
Do consider the smartwath as a nice gadget, practically spoken prefer to use smartphone or larger display sizes .
Best regards, Hans
