Problem with data and apps

Hi, I'm having problems with my apps not connecting to my network. I have a sprint Hero that is fully flashed to metro pcs. I'm running damagecontrol v1.0, and at first everything was working fine. All of my apps where able to connect using the cellular connection. But a few days ago they just stopped connecting and I dont know what to do. Thanks in advance for your guys' help.

That's an outdated ROM from a developer who is now on the EVO. Try flashing damage's 2.08 or 2.09, they are the last one's he put out before leaving.

Will I still keep my data,mms, and app setting?

I'm not sure if you can flash that far ahead without wiping, but it can't hurt to try if you do a nand beforehand.

Thanks for your help I'll make sure to try that

Android hanging

Hi, i have tried all android builds, those using ext2 partition, and those which don't need it, on different roms, different radios, with and without swap partition, but android always hangs after a while.
Both partitions are set to primary. I used task29 before each flash. SD Card was always formatted. Don't know what else can i do to make it work.
I noticed that it has something to do with gsm, because when i try to turn it off, then nothing happens, and after a while android freezes.
anyone found a solution to this problem ?

if you don't have solution for my problem , then please tell me what you are doing to make it work, step by step, maybe i'm doing something wrong ... i would be really happy to have android on my phone

i have the same problem
i dont even know it related to gsm, if did not post about this.
i already ask about this on neopeek forum, but still did not solve the problem.
maybe you could visit neopeek forum, explain the problem (from your prespective), then we can help the dev to solve this problem

i turned off gsm and android was working fine, but when i turned it back on , then phone hanged after a while ... so , it is related with gsm

I think you may have something here.
I get some hangs, and the screen fails to wake some times with SIM card in.
If i remove SIM everything seems fine i can not make it to hang.
RADIO: 1.16

I've experienced this too. In fact I struggled to even install with most kernels as it would hang at the initial setup wizard. Once the sim card was removed it installed fine, and runs much better. My radio is version 1.17.25.09.

the people in neopeek forum suggest me to change radio
right now i'm using version 1.16.25
bobblesop use 1.17.25
XangoAbada, which version you're using right now?

right now i'm using 1.17.25 radio, but i tried all radios available on xda forum, and all kernels from sp3dev and sandeans, result always is the same, adroid hangs

I have the same problem.
For me works:
- cyanogen 6.1 thread from neopeek
- kernel from xdandroid.2 from this thread
- radio 1.14.25.55
- Energy ROM (updated yesterday)
Try this too and say if your problem gone.
I don't know what's the reason of hanging android. Kernels: sp3dev, seandean doesn't work for me
PS. SIM with pin

gsobczyk , your combination really works ;P how is battery on that kernel ? and what should we do now, when we know what works and what not ? don't know if any developer will have time to resolve our problem :/

Battery - not so good. I use android from time to time and test some kernels (first installed android - 4 days ago ). I'm not android's kernel developer so I have only hope that someone find the reason of this behavior.
I'm wondering if presence of PIN code has difference. Unfortunately I can't disable it.

i have disabled asking for pin, so i don't have problem with this ... and i think it's not related with the hanging problem ... i think it's something with the gsm driver ... maybe on neopeek forum they will find the answer

there is a solution for our hanging problem

How i solved my hangs: (happened to me with all versions i tried)
Go to settings -> wireless & network settings -> mobile networks -> uncheck "Data enabled", reboot.
if it hangs before you can get there, remove the sim card and try again.
radio 1.10xxxx
rom winmo 6.1

[Q] wifi error / sd not mounting

G1 wifi has stopped working and has 'error' listed underneath wifi option in wireless setting...
Also, the sd card doesn't mount... what's worse is this problem is intermittent..
I'm currently using FroyobyLaszlo 5 and the problems are both still here.. I was using cm6.1 for awhile and eventually tried a couple other roms, but the wifi error and sdcard problem carry over thru each flash. I forget which rom i flashed to where the wifi function broke.. I've flashed back to the cm6.1 2708port nandroid backup I saved (which was the last working rom where I had working wifi) and still the wifi error! I've tried a few different kernels as well and still nothing..
Can somebody help me get these fixed?? ..thanks
hboot - 1.33.0013d
radio - 2.22.28.25
recovery RA-dream-v1.7.0
UPDATE 1: I began to re-flash the original tmobile nbh image in order to restore the phone and start all over again, but now I'm stuck with that image flashed and can't access fastboot on the phone anymore.. The phone probably needs to be re-rooted now, but I can't access wifi (which means I can't sign in to google in order to get to the phone's desktop and then perform the root procedure).. Now I can't flash anything!! HELP plz???
hboot - 0.95.0000
radio - 1.2.12.29
UPDATE 2 - Ok, I got everything (hboot 1.33.0013d , radio 2.22.28.25, laszlo 5.1 rom) flashed back to the G1 again, but the wifi error persists and so does the intermittent sd card issue.. I think the sd card problem may be hardware related..sometimes It'll work for a minute after I remove the card and re-insert it, then it'll stop working again..
*edit* Can someone or has someone already made a patch to disable the function of that little trigger inside the micro sd card reader on the g1?? That little switch that pushes in when u close the sd card cover.. Apparently, this might cause my sd card to not function, so I figured that somebody may have made a patch to disable this and make the sd card work outright without that little button inside needed..

First, try a SuperWipe. Sometimes junk gets left around even after a wipe through recovery that causes very weird problems.

I haven't heard of a patch to do that. It might not even be possible if it is implemented in hardware. You could try opening the phone and modify it to always keep that trigger closed, as a last resort.

ok i'm gonna try to flash superwipe2 but atm the sd card isn't readable even in recovery, so I'm gonna have to play around and hope I get lucky and the sd mounts in order for me to flash superwipe... if/when it happens, i'll post an update..

finally managed to superwipe AND re-flash laslo 5.1..
the g1 still has the wi-fi 'error' and of course the sd only works intermittently.. I lost count how many re-boots and how many times i re-inserted the microSD card until i finally got it to work long enough to flash it this time
so what files are involved in the wifi anyway?? Can I manually replace a driver perhaps?... or something?!?

The wifi kernel module is located at "/system/lib/modules/wlan.ko". This really sounds like a hardware problem if it is occurring in recovery too. Have you tried ROMs other than laslo? Try a stable CyanogenMod or BiffMod ROM.

thnx , I'll read up on this..
and also, I've used cm6.1, 2708port cm 6.1, and sparksmod rom 2.. i had biffmod installed for like a minute or so before i switched to something else due to the wfi error.. maybe i could try it again, I can't remember if there was something else wrong with biffmod or not, but I do know the wifi issue carries over thru different roms.. pretty much on all these roms I've experienced lag, fc's, broken apps, battery drain, and now the wifi problem and sdcard problem..

so can I download and replace the wifi kernel module with any one I can find? or does it need to be a specific one? I still need to fix wifi... thnx

No, the wifi kernel module has to be built specifically for kernel. You can try flashing a different kernel (with a wifi module) though. Here are some to try:
2.6.35.11 by Pershoot: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=1563
2.6.34.8 by ezterry: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11565574&postcount=670

for 2.6.35.11 pershoot, I get the 'failed' error when flashing thru recovery.. i used the nfs_32b_radio2708.zip
for 2.6.34.8, I've flashed and rebooted and still the same wifi error =(
Is the "wifi module" already included in each kernel zip?? Or do I need that too??
thnx

Read through the whole post again. That isn't the kernel.

It is included with the kernel.

a user on another forum posted "Could you guys check if your wlan kernel module is loaded? Open up the terminal emulator, then su to root and run 'lsmod'?
For me, I get 3 modules now: wlan, ramzswap and ipv6.
When it was broken for me, I didn't have wlan."
well I don't have wlan listed either, even though i have the wlan.ko file in /system/lib/modules...
EDIT: finally got 2.6.35.11 flashed and installed, but still same wifi error =(

I have just developed this problem as well...on one of 7 phones. I have taken it back to 29 on 2 ocassions, bringing it back to ezterrys gingerbread. at 29 I get wifi error.... at cm6.1 I get wifi error....and at GB also get wifi error. Looking in logs, I see (in RED) 00:00 00:00:00.000 E/WiFi Service (132) on next line (also in RED) Failed to Load Wi-Fi driver.
Reading thru these forums..I see a few folks having this same error....but no one seems to have a fix.
Can anyone shed some light on this topic...
Thanks a million.

[Q] My most interesting problem ever

Hy everyone!
I have found a very interesting problem regarding my kaiser130 and android...or maybe the problem is in the user?
Anyhow my problem is that no matter which android build i try,no matter which kernel and which radio i dont have working wifi and data connection.
At first everything worked fine but then i had some problems and i didnt have time to fiddle around with android because it wasnt too stable and i had many FC-s so i had to go back to winmo.I had 6.1 on it before,have put on hardspl3.34 then started flashing android and after that i put back winmo from a shipped package with ruu . Now i have more time and i started to experiment with android again.I wanted to use cyanogenmod 6.1.2 but had the wifi-error problem but as i saw many other people had the same so i thought i'd go back to another build,namely incubus26jc's super froyo rls16 i used that for days but then when i had to use the apn or wifi it didnt work...or actually wifi worked but only with static ip,i tried switching kernels from a base one downloaded with atools to clemsyns and scoots but nothing worked for me better yet it even got worse it started producing the wifi-error again.I use the most recent radio tried both the emo version and the atw to no success tried installing both to nand sys on nand data ext2 data.img but nothing seems to be working and now no matter which build i try everytime i get the wifi-error and apn isnt working.Can it be that my bootloader is tarting to fail?Or is my kernel getting corrupted?
Oh and i always applied the appropriate module updates for each kernel.
Can somebudy suggest something useful or i was thinking that is it possible to very hard reset the phone i mean to put it back the way it was?Format the nand put back a normal spl,i dont mind trying thing again but i need the data connection and the wifi.
Oh and i forgot to mention the most interesting thing,when i turn on data it actually turns on and in the modem i can see that it even gets an ip address from my phone provider.

[Q] "Not registered on network" error. *PLEASE HELP*

Yesterday, my phone just decided it didn't want to be connected to a network anymore. I was running DynamicKat ROM. It just happened out of nowhere and continues today. I've tried flashing different ROMS and they install fine, but I still can't register to a network. I believe I need to update the modem, but I'm not sure. I'm currently on baseband version ANK4, but I think I need to update to BOC4. Does this sound correct? Any advice would be great, and if you might point me in the direction of any files needed it would be greatly appreciated as well. No need to link, but just a general section where I could find the files would be helpful as I seem to have little luck with the search function here. Thank you in advance.
EDIT: Ehhh... Nevermind. It just started working again. I can't explain it. Suddenly I was connected again.

Always a good idea to check your APN settings if you are in a known coverage area with a new ROM. Been my problem 90 percent of the time

Funny you mention this as I run the same ROM and have had this occur to me whilst traveling around my area and in and out of T-Mobile "Dead Spots" which seem to be many...
Even called T-Mobile to report and best they could tell me is go into "More Networks-Mobile Networks-Network operators" and select - Select automatically.
A real PITA when you driving down the road and need to call out or re-connect your call with someone.
Note: I've had numerous issues on different ROMS similar to this so I pretty much blame T-Mobile and their service in my area unless someone else can chime in, I would be curious...

I had a similar problem on DK, except that it was unmounting my sim card completely & I had to reboot to get it working again. Happened every hour or so, very frustrating. I tried a different rom & the issue went away, so it's definitely something funky with DK which makes me sad cause that's my favorite rom.
I just reflashed it last night though & I took the precaution of completely reflashing ANK4 through Odin and redoing root & TWRP too, then flashing DK like normal. So far, so good(and it seems to have fixed the battery life issues I was having as well, yay), so you might try that method & see if it helps for you too. But be sure to back up your internal storage first cause odin WILL wipe it. Learned this the hard way, bye-bye all my pictures & titanium backups :/
Files I used can be found here.. BOC4 is for LP, so you should be fine with ANK4.
