Hey all! so.. my friend came from U.S and he got me a used Galaxy 4 from AT&T, and the Wifi is just stuck on a green grey situation, its not on or off
i tried any solution online that i could find. i don't know what to do anymore. nothing helping the things that are only helping was changing the router settings to a different encryption mode from WEP and then its worked but when i connected my gs4 to a different wifi connection the problem happened again
the wifi can work days if I'm not switching wifi spots.
my only solution by now was just to change to a whole new custom ROM
the problem is, that i have NO IDEA how to do it due the fact that i have a mac and i couldn't find a Proper noob guide from scratch to do that. please help me! i am a graphic designer and an artist with a MA in fine arts and i would love to help u guys too
Thank you so much!

This is what I used to get adb/fastboot on my iMac. I am on MDL build, early version phone.
You will need to find you build number first. Under Settings/About Device to determine how to flash roms on the phone--a screen of that page may help also--

hey thanks i added a photo but apparently i need 10 posts at least so just add www i58.tinypic.com/v41bue.png
the wifi is working cuz i restart it to manufacture settings again but soon as i will disconnect him and join a different connection he will go grey again
From the PM photo you are on NB1 build--
If you are going to root to flash a custom rom you will need the below two links--
Read Op page of first link, I think it depends on how the phone got to NB1 as which steps you need.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616221
You will need SafeStrap in below link. So, read up on that.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448925
These are if you are going to root to flash a rom. You can only flash Touch Wiz roms and no custom kernels or recovries.
If you want to get back to stock status you will need to flash the appropriare firmware and use Odin on a PC and Heimdall on Mac. Will have to research that.
What carrier are you on and where you are at?
Was the phone ever rooted--
I never returned to stock or used SafeStrap, so someone with hands on experience will have to help on that.
Hiii....I am also having the same problem.My phone was unlocked by a guy and everything was working fine then.From next day the i could not turn on WiFi(It would go grayish for some time and then return to normal).I tried searching for it online and found the following soln
1)Reboot and check(Didn't work)
2)Factory Reset:After doing this it worked for that initial scanning but again was back to normal once wifi was switched off
3)Factory reset and installed root browser(my phone is rooted as i was able to install root explorer) and tried renaming the wpa-supplant config file
.This was worked for me for like 4 days.
After that again the problem is back and its even worse.It is immediately turning off as opposed to delay in previous case.When i tried to follow the same procedure the config files are not present.I could not on wifi even after factory reset even once
As i am a new around here detailed help would be appreciated;
My Device Features:
1)Andriod:4.4.2,SGH I337
2)Baseband:I337UCUFNC1
3)kernel Version:3.4.0-1125940
4)Build No:KOT49H.I337UCUFNC1
Hi all,
I recently decided on trying my hand at rooting my s5, have done my research and this is where i wanted to take my phone, and where to come for help.
Ive gone through Odin v3.07 and no COM's would register, i tried tool kit but it wouldn't start after i installed drivers and such, there was a third one i found through threads in here as well but to no avail, nothing has proved any results.
so this is where you all can swoop in and save the day, when I used Odin (which seems to yield the furthest results) the only trouble im having is opening my phone in the ID:COM section. When I plug my s5 into my linux mint 10.something hp notebook (which could be the whole problem all together), with a v2 or v3 usb it registers as gFTP and I can do very little with the files there. like i noted above, toolbox didnt even open, nor could i even figure out what to do with the third thing i tried using. so, my last resort, a community that actually knows what they're doing...
What advice/guidance can you all pert to me? what do you think the problem might be? do i need to perform a factor reset to root my phone? is it the operating systems i am working on? i tried briefly on a mac osx 10. something and now am on a linux mint.
i am not very tech savy but can pick things up fairly quickly, so pretend im dumb and give explicit detail and i will pick up what you miight be talking about more easily.
P.S. I am NOT a robot lol
I have been searching through different android support pages today and everyone seems to resolve their rooting issues easily. though their solutions dont seem to provide me with any answers. i can list any info needed for further diagnostics, but to label a few outright, i have enabled usb debugging in developer mode, tried different usb ports and before/after phone is in downlaod mode, i have SM_G900P 4.4.4 and anything else you need, to help me
Root MethodAmazon has just released a new firmware update, blocking the fastboot commands necessary for root/custom ROMs (fastboot boot). We need more information about this update. If people could update their tablet to this latest version without getting it stuck in the botloop, we could see the information regarding the update and get root out for this ROM ASAP. Thanks to anyone who sacrifices root/ROMs for development.
List of things you can't do:
Downgrade to an earlier release
Boot a .img from Fastboot
List of things you can do:
Install and use the Google Play Framework and Services
Root
Install Custom ROMS via FlashFire
Remove Lockscreen Ads
Remove Amazon Bloatware
Feel free to comments things that worked/didn't work on your device.
ANYONE WHO IS ON 5.0.x AND WANTS TO GO TO 5.1.1 WITHOUT ANY COMPLICATIONS AND KEEPING TWRP, GO TO THIS LINK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3265594
Can anyone test if the Google Framework Install tutorial works on this update?
It does.
However, DON'T TRY TO DOWNGRADE BACK TO THE 5.0.1 FIRMWARE. IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE. I found that out the hard way. It's stuck in a preloader reboot-loop.
Added list of what you are able to do on the update.
Can someone with a brand new Fire & an open wifi network within range, confirm that it will not automatically connect to wifi? I would appreciate it greatly.
Yes, I do believe that you should have to agree to connect to wifi. And that's what I vaguely recall from my Fire. But I'd like to be 100% sure. Don't want to take the slightest chance. My friend has a new fire in the box & has an open wifi network within range of their place.

You have to go through the setup, but originally I just skipped that part, even though I was next to a Starbucks, and it didn't connect.
Doesn't Starbucks wifi require you to click to agree to their terms of use before you can freely browse or download? So Internet would not actually be available initially to the update script.
Pretty much, I trust amazon on this issue, as far as I can throw them. I don't want to presume that a OTA proccess won't silently connect, while the Fire otherwise appears to be waiting for the ok to connect to wifi.
Bloat removal
Hi just to add this thread it looks like you cannot remove any of the bloat as I was able to do on 5.01

Thanks, added.
This is bullsh!t. the ENTIRE reason about 5,000 people bought this tab last week is because of root, fastboot and CM. If I get my tab soon I can offer any assistance you need. I'm not sure if it will be possible to dump any part of the system, boot, etc. without fastboot or twrp, but I'm sure we could figure something out.

Has anyone tried kingroot on 5.1.1?
Experts please take a look at this
What was changed in OS 5.1.1?
If anyone can get the frimware update or capture it id like to test it out
running 5.1.1 & all I could manage to load was Google Account manager. The rest (Framework Services, etc) says something like "App not installed" & nothing else, every time I try.
scratch that..... found found a couple that did load for me.
Damn! I did this (tried to downgrade, got bricked) a day before you posted this. I should probably replace mine...
My unrooted Fire upgraded to 5.1.1 last night before I had any idea it was coming. I'm willing to try whatever is needed to assist with further research if I could be of any help.
unlikely it would work, but did anyone on 5.1.1 try
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot twrpfilename

so my x720 has bad wifi. bought this from amazon: CableCreation USB-C(Type C 3.1) to RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Network Adapter, but it doens't work AICP which I currently flashed.
does anyone know of a combination of a ROM + ethernet USB-C adapter?
thx in advance.
btw, aicp on x720 seems very stable and smooth. thx!
If you will use RJ45 cable then why not just connect it via BT or USB-C tether to get internet connection?
The adapter you mentioned seems to be for a Macbook
Return the adapter you bought and get this one instead.
https://www.amazon.com/Smays-Ethernet-compatible-Raspbian-Raspberry/dp/B00L32UUJK
What is the issue that you are experiencing?
Which phone do you have?
What OS?
I agree with Joms_US you could just connect through BT. But why bother using a bandaid, when you could make work as intended instead.
As long as there is no hardware issue, your connection issue is caused by either your configuration or software. It could also be your router. But unlikely if everything else works okay. Its seems that you are just very likely using the wrong firmware.
thank both of you for the tips and help. what i have is x720+ aicp 13.1 from xdev. the wifi module seem to be dead (as I tried stocked rom as well). The usb tethering is graying out. the BT tethering, i am not sure howto make it to work though. Looks very much my hardware is toasted.
anyway, I will try the link above, and very likely will get the new oneplus 6.
have a nice weekend..

Don't give up yet, this is very likely something that can be fixed. As I mentioned previously you very likely have the wrong firmware. Go to the bottom of my post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/development/le-eco-pro-3-x727-twrp-backup-clean-t3727920
Download the firmware for your device : if its an X727 - download the X727 firmware and then boot to TWRP Recovery
Once in TWRP -
Click select storage and choose the local drive
Click Install button : From here, you'll be shown your device's internal storage folder tree: Go to SDcard > downloads > select the firmware you just downloaded
Swipe the slider at the bottom to flash the firmware
Go to wipe> Advanced wipe > Check Cache ( Cache only) Swipe
Reboot to Recovery- (Check any boxes to install TWRP manager IF you see them) > Reboot to system > issue should now be resolved
Another hint
Click the reply button for whoever you are talking to in these forums otherwise that person will never know that you responded unless they just happen to open the link again.
If this does not resolve the issue, there are other things to try.
Hey! This is my first time here, sorry if I'm doing smth wrong, I just really need help. My fossil gen 6 is kinda useless at this point after updating to Wear OS 3 and I would like to flash it back to Wear OS 2, since I don't get any notifications & I can't even sync my notes at this point without connecting to wifi (not even through mobile data, which is pretty annoying -> my phone & watch doesn't connect to each other through bluetooth)
thanks, for any guides in advance!
night
You will have to perform a factory reset and repair the watch and phone again. Only option at the moment.

Did that 3 times already, nothing changed. Thanks for your answer though!
Did you get anywhere with this? I also want to go back to wear os 2. I hate the fossil app
I'd like to know too. I just came back to Android with the S23 Ultra and wanted to pair my Razer x Fossil watch to it. But I decided to update since I was doing a factory reset/disconnect anyways. Big big BIG mistake.
There has to be a way to flash wear OS 2.3 back to the watch and re partition it as stock. I'm able to see my watch as a USB perhp on my machine without BT or wifi connection.
Anyone have the old firmware for these watches? Short of buying another Razer watch for $600
I do have all the required files to go back to wearOS 2, but wont suggest it might brick your device. Have a partition backup first.
For OTA add the hash in the placeholder.

Hey ! Thanks for the file. I'll take the risk to brick my watch.
Do you know how I can flash the archive ?

I'm also looking to be able to flash my watch between WearOS 2 and 3. Have you figured anything out by chance? All the things I normally do aren't working, with and without TWRP.

From what I found, the original cable with 4 spins (2 on each side) should be used to connect your watch to a PC and use the USB debugging.
So I bought one but nothing happened. I'm just able to use Bluetooth or WiFi debugging and these can't be used to unlock the bootloader as WiFi and Bluetooth are disabled on bootloader mode. So fastboot can't detect the watch.
So I'm stuck and that sucks, my duck.
Another way is to remove the watch's back and tweak the USB connectors but I'll not do that...

I see. I have been able to make it farther, but I also was running into problems getting the USB connection to work. Most of what I did was under Linux instead of Windows but I found that after enabling USB debugging I often had to remove the watch from the cradle, put it back on, then run 'adb devices' from the connected computer to get the daemon going. That usually got the adb popup on the watch to show, then I can select the 'always allow' option.
All that said, at the moment I'm not currently able to boot my watch unless I have the bootloader unlocked. I have restored the stock recovery after using TWRP and unsuccessfully flashing anything via that adb shell or from the bootloader with fastboot. Even worse, some things are not working properly, such as automatic brightness and some of the wireless capabilities. I might need to see if I can work something out with Fossil if I'm unable to resolve these issues.
You guys seems way ahead on me in the downgrade process...
I made Wear OS 3 update but the Fossil app used to pair the watch won't work with Oneplus 8 Pro (Android 13), gotta go back but i have no idea how...
Yet i flashed a lot of custom roms and stuff in the past, but now.. kinda lost
Im looking forward to see news here
Good luck guys, i'll keep updated if i somehow manage to flash the OTA posted ahead
Edit : well i was on Apkmirror to try an older apk of the app, and found out their app targets android 12 but not android 13..........

I do have the TWRP but need to find it, took some tweaks from Ticwatch 3 pro. I didnt pushed it on the repo tho. I didnt what made me do it, but I wiped my system partitions and had to rebuilt from the OTA only. But after getting the watch working again, I had few functionalities broke, including the OTA updates. If you can social enginner your way thru fossil to get files such as stock rom and other files for qualcomm software like rawprogrammer and firehose files it can be great help.
