wifi channel 13 no longer working - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I got my pixel XL a few days ago, and wanted to setup my X style for my girlfriend. Flashed the stock 6.0.1 (RETEU) firmware on it, and now the damn thing won't connect to my wifi (which is on channel 13, and always was) anymore. No matter what modem I flash, or whatever ROM (that worked in the past, as I used this phone for a year and a half without wifi issues) I flash, it doesn't want show my network essid . Even tried with the asian firmware, but nothing works...
Anyone any ideas?

I flashed AICP 7.1, and by editing build.prop & wpa_supplicant.conf, I was able to get my network going. Flashing back stock EU system and boot image, lost it again. Doing the same trick didn't work here.
Anyone?

another update: when I put the wifi to channel 12, it still didn't work. When I put it to channel 4, finally it connects. Would still love an explanation, so I can go back to channel 13 which is less crowded...

Do you have the EU modem installed only my understanding is that in the US, both channel 12 and 13 are not generally used, so if you have a US modem installed still from some previous custom non-EU rom, that might be the culprit.

I flashed (already several times) the modem firmware from the reteu 6.0.1 zip (via fastboot flash modem). Anything else i could be missing?

[solved] N9005 CM11 Carrier/Signal Intermittent

So I ended up working out how to get a CM11 hltespr nighty running on the n9005 via TWRP via Odin.
Problem is i doesnt really connect to the carrier network, just momentarily then drops out for some time. Tried right in town, gets full signal for like 1 sec, then no carrier for a bit, then repeats.
Have tried with correct carrier settings, any suggestions ?
what it ended up being was the wrong rom. in my confusion from TWRP not installing the hlte rom recommended cyanogen mod becasue it said it was a hltespr, i installed the hltespr nightly which seemed to work apart from this. but then i read this "Previously, Note 3 (qualcomm devices) builds were separate, but now they are unified. So, hltespr, hltetmo, hltevzw, htlexx are now all in one build: hlte." http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616162
And it got me thinking maybe i needed to try hlte again, but use this trick here so TWRP would let me install it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49570736&postcount=9

Note 4 Rom Issues (SM-N10T)

Hello! Recently T-Mobile launched MM 6.0.1 for the Galaxy Note 4. I was originally running CM Remix, that was meant for the international version of this device, and all but sim card did not work, (I don't have this device activated, I just use it on the side). When I got bored of the CM Remix I just went to Samsung Kies, and restored the phone to its factory default. When I finished setting up the phone I was pleased to find that I was running 6.0.1, as opposed to 5.1.1. All good? No! I have used Odin to put on the latest version of TWRP recovery, and i flashed v2.76 of SuperSU. All works well in terms of rooting and flashing files, but here is my big issue. NO MATTER WHAT rom that I flash on this damn phone, wifi doesnt work, nor do the service bars show I have signal. I have flashed 6 different roms, and all of them have to same issue, stock 4.4.4, 5.0, 5.11 CM 12,12.1 13, Ressurection Remix. The only thing holding me together is my TWRP nandroid backup that i revert to after every rom I flash. In settings, my phone just says "Turning wifi on" and it stays there. SO WHAT THE @#$% IS GOING ON? Is this something T-MObile implemented when it did the update on my N4, I restored to 5.1.1 with kies all the time before this and after each time, i flashed roms with no issue. Can someone please point me in the right direction here, am I doing something wrong? Is something patched that wasn't previously? WHAT CAN IT BE?

unbricking hard brick - moto x style

hey guys
i just brick my phone (no idea how, flashed android 7 firmware) after flash my phone was working for like 2 hours, then i let himself update a security options. After update my phone went brick
As far i found :
- installed Qualcoom QDLOADER 9008 driver
- found QFIL programmer
i need to have programmer path (something related to JTAG) and build xmp path
Where i can find them? Or is it a other way to resscue my phone?
I feel your pain. My timeline:
- The phone was unlocked but still in Stock Nougat (7.0?). Got that from OTA in Brazil.
- I tried to update to LineageOS 7 via TWRP. After a full wipe (everything, system, data, card, cache etc) I installed the new ROM. Turned on, bootlooped forever.
- Searching around I found out that there was no modem in the Nougat roms and for some reason I needed to flash a Marshmallow modem for my region to make that work (I think there is no Nougat modems around or something).
- I found a LA_DS modem for 6.0, flashed that using TWRP, still bootloop. Tried other roms using TWRP, still bootloop.
- I then downloaded a full stock old 6.0 firmware to go back to stock but the phone wouldn't accept some files ("preflash validation failed").
- Searched around and found out that you can't downgrade a bootloader from Moto.
- Using fastboot, I flashed the files the phone was willing to accept and it finally booted the 6.0 Marshmallow stock rom, but with no networking (radio/modem/baseband/IMEI missing).
- Flashed the 6.0 modem for my region again and everything worked. Connected on WiFi, dual sim cards detected etc.
- I started to install every update the phone showed to try to update it back to latest MM version.
- The three first updates went ok, the fourth turned off the phone to never turn on again.
Looks like there is no way out of this. My phone is pretty old and MotoCare in Brazil will charge a lung and a half for repair.

Pretty similar situation on my part. I downgraded back to 6.0 and when it tried to take the December update I ended up with the same thing as you. I ended up getting a replacement from Moto for under 100 dollars which was worth it rather than trying to find a solution that doesn't exist.

Galaxy s7 edge exynos wont flash stock files HALP

Im using a Galaxy s7 edge exynos and I have been trying ALL day to return to stock firmware. (was aiming for 6.0, but when that didnt work I started trying 7.0 with slightly more success...) I was previously rooted via magisk using TWRP. I am not able to flash all 4 files at once via odin, (BL, AP, CP, CSC) I quickly get an error on both the device and odin (decive says binary 2 device something... Odin stops at either Param.bin or cm.bin depending on which CSC I use) the BL file seems to be the one that refuses to flash (from any of the 4 versions of odin i have and using different firmware versions that previously worked on the phone)
I am able to flash just the AP, CP, and CSC but when android loads up my mobile data doesnt work and many other things dont work correctly as well ...
I am so confused as to what I can even possibly do now. Im sitting here with a phone that wont correctly software update that I cant correctly root and has no mobile data. No full 4 files will correctly flash without odin error. TWRP gives me crap now too. I have wiped and formatted all the data many times hoping id missed something.
Send help
also
I try to manually update and it says "registering device" for a sec and then "Process failed" Like android 7.0 is running but not how it was before. I did update to newest update via the phone before i decided to try to revert to android 6.0 again because I was having issues connecting my pokemon go+
Hmmmm I still have problems with 5ghz and mobile data but i got magisk to install... luckily im not using this for phone purposes. this is the best i can do without help

I didn't try anything with oreo until like 10 hours of failing everything and reading everything I could find. It was unofficial and apps wouldn't install or update correctly. So actually what I got to semi work was 7.0 again. Build G935FXXU1DPLT. It doesn't show cell tower signal or work with 5ghz anymore but I got magisk installed and I can run apps off of wifi. (Same as before 8.0 but got magisk working this time)
I'd still like to try to get my 5ghz and cell signal (just in case something happens to my main phone) but I'm scared to soft brick my phone for the 1000th time in 2 days when I managed to get it semi working.

Last time something like that happend to me, is because i was flashing the wrong stock rom (same model but wrong original carrier) sometimes it does matter, sometimes not
I was worried I might have messed it up for good as well luckily I'm not completely stuck but I still dont understand why I couldnt just 100% flash my OS via odin like I always do. Although I got cocky and started without following instructions up on the computer this time. Just my luck
double check mod #it can change with different roms my s5 tmobile g900t originally now its grown into g935f S7 edge

Bluetooth Issue since Bootloader/Modem update PDA G935FXXU5ESD2 and CSC G935FVFG5ESD3

Hello community,
I am asking your knowledge about a recent Bootloader Update.
Long story short : I was running my hero2lte on a rooted custom ROM for about 2 years and recently decided to upgrade to the latest android as the threads on this forum were showing good feedbacks.
I was on Android 8.0.0 with Baseband G935FXXU3ERHC . Everything was doing perfectly fine expect some little freezes mainly caused by Xposed Framework :cyclops:.
So One Day♪ baby w'will be old♬ I decided to jump in and install the Latest LineageOS 16 (that was early Augustus 2019)
The instructions on the thread ask to get the latest Bootloader and Modem. What I did from SamMobile. Here
I flashed those two files with Odin 3.13.3 and it PASSED flawlessly.
Then I Wiped everything and went thro the Aroma install process, re-root, and finally booted my Rom. But when the phone started I realized my Bluetooth was not working. I tried to pair many bluetooth devices.
Here is what I already tried to get my bluetooth back :
1. I tried different ROMs --> bluetooth very unstable or not connecting at all
2. I tried to flash other Modems version but they all gave me this problem --> My sim card is not detected
3. I tried to flash many different (compatible) older Bootloaders --> Odin FAILS to flash and my phone become almost bricked with them all. (Have to flash back BL and Modem from sammobile FXXU5ESD2)
My phone is G935F International version (with latest TWRP).
I'm am now using lastest LightROM Android 9.0 and it is very stable !! But I can't get my bluetooth to connect any device, or even when it does connect, the volume goes crazy or it disconnects randomly.
Also Mobile Network is showing 4G instead of 4G+ but that not a big deal.
My actual Bootloader information :
Current Binary : Custom
System Status : Custom
FRP Lock : OFF
Secure Mode : Enable
Warranty Void : 1 ( of course)
RP SWREV : B:5 K:3 S:4
Any help or hint would be strongly appreciated

I flashed another version from SamMobile (this version XEF)
PDA G935FXXS5ESF8 and CSC G935FOXA5ESF8
Booted it, no problem, I was on Android 8.0.0 unrooted as predicted. Bluetooth working as usual on 8.X Android versions.
Installed TWRP again, Rooted again.
Than I did a clean install of BlackDiamond v4.0.
MY BLUETOOTH IS WORKING FLAWLESSLY ON ANDROID PIE. :feelsgooodman:
