i cant connect to the wifi at all
was running cm6.1 was having problem
flashed back to FRG33. Everything works
except for wifi
when i turn on i get
application settings(inprocess com.androd.settings) is not responding then gives me force close
Seems something is corrupted...did you wipe when flashing?
Also try to update the Radio version...You could also try on FRG83 instead of 33 but that shouldn't make much of a difference, worth a try though
Wifi is generally managed by driver modules that are a part of the kernel. Perhaps try flashing a different kernel?
I quite often flash new kernels and I noticed that often a kernel may contain a new Wifi driver, if Wifi was turned on before flasing new kernel, afterwards Wifi may not be able to enable.
So when I flash a new kernel, I always turn off every communication features, 2g, gps off, bluetooth off, wifi off (although not all of them are necessary to be turned off ), then flash new kernel and wipe cache. It always works for me.
Since you're using CM so try this kernel:
http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/
before flashing it, turn off wifi, then goto recovery and flash the kernel and clear cache.
If you would like to save more battery you might like to try IntersectRaven or Wildmonk's AVS kernels, they are both compatible with CM.
thanks for all the help but i just go ahead and flashed back to FRG33
and when i tried to flashed to FRG 83 i failed to do it so
tried it in clockwork recovery
signature verifcation off.
then now i am getting an diff error and im assuming its becuase i have
higher version oh Hbooter?
i am going back to stock completely and try gingerbread when it comes out
so any help going FRG 33 TO FRG83?
should i just try and use the force update? and see if it works?
or do i have to do it manually if so any help would b appeciated.
for some reason cant flash to frg83. i named them as update.zip as well
is it suppose to be 80 mb file? dont i just need an OTA update file?
well in wiki the file that told to b used was 80mb file
if so where can i download proper OTA file
tried to find it but most of the links are corruped it or does not exist anymore
and the one on the wiki is to confusing. there was one update that goes ef something to FRG83 but i couldnt flash it cause i had higer hboot version. downgrading is too confusing for me.
right now i have 2.2
basebandversion 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04
kernel version 2.6.32.9-27237-gbe746fb
[email protected]#1
build number frg 33
i want to get 2.2.1 (FRG83) idk which kernal works best for wifi..when i wiped out everything and reflashed it it worked for 3min then got disconnected and now im getting the same forceclose
i know i have lots of question sorry.
why sticking with official roms there are bunches of excellent roms in Development section. All roms should already contain a kernel which works for that rom, so just carefully follow instructions and flash a new rom, see if wifi works.
I'm currently running CM 6.1 RC1.

Hey guys; i'll try to provide you with all the information but honestly i'm not 100% on all of it so try and be patient.
I'm trying to go back to SuperE from Froyo by Laszlo which was absolutely killing my battery without me even using it. However, every time i flash it (and i wipe everything) after it goes past the G1 screen it just resets again.
I'm not sure if this is maybe because of the new kernel (2708) which i'm PRETTY sure i have, but am not 100%. I do know that i have one of the new radios though.
Would the kernel be causing the problem? If so how do i downgrade?
I hope you can help me out!
Thank you!
Q: Can you mention step-by-step what did you flash? And confirm the exact setup before flashing. I believe you mentioned your radio is 2708.
Powered by Android
Thank you for replying. I'll definitely try.
I'm back on FroyoByLaszlo-int2.1 because i couldn't successfully flash either Super D or Super E.
My Radio is 2.22.28.25
Kernel version says 2.6.35.10 - froyobylaszlo
Basically i did what i always do. I wiped everything, first by flashing the "all-wipe" and then going back and wiping it all manually.
Then i flashed the appropriate gapps, followed by the ROM. Rebooted afterwards, but every time it gets passed the G1 screen it reboots.
The only thing i can think of is incompatibility with the kernel but then again, i don't know crap, so that's why i'm asking
Yep, most likely it is indeed the incompatibility of the kernel with the radio.
I'd try flashing the ezBiffTestKernel20101106-2708.zip after the ROM+GApps.
Just use Google to find the kernel.

The battery drain could be becos of the new kernel. Try installing the 35.9 kernel from ezterry (the one he had for CyanogenMod 6.1 2708) It is working good for me, the battery last for a whole day.
Posted this in the wrong place... so here I go again.
Alright as the Title says I got a problem with Froyo.
First of all, this is the first time i ever tried anything with a cellphone, although so far it went well (took me long though).
First I removed an old version of cyanogenmod from the old user.
Then I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1098899
Then I installed Froyo by Laszlo 5.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929678
Now to my ultimate surprise, I actually got this all done and it works perfectly, except for one thing. Wifi does not work. When I turn it on it starts scanning for networks, then gives the message "unable to scan for network" and Wifi automaticly gets turned off again. Before installing this I always found 2 networks from the point I'm sitting now.
I simply got no clue what it could be.
Some info. Following the guide for radio and boot I got the correct information in the bootloader as mentioned in step 3:
Dream PVT 32b SHIP S-on
HBOOT 1.33.0013d (drea10000)

If you need more info, just ask.
And thanks in advance,

edit:
Little update here. On some forums I found that a file bcm_supp.conf in /data/wifi caused a problem like mine. When I plug in my phone in my pc I only see the sd card. Therefore I installed sdk/adb thing, connected with my phone (correctly). and I manually tried to remove the file via cmd. This resulted in the notification that the file did not exist.
Hence, back to nothing. Any way I can make my internal memory show up again?
All in all it seems like I got the same problem as many people had with Froyo. But it seemed solved for everyone after a certain patch. My Froyo version is obviously more recent. And no one seems to have this problem with this version of Froyo (in the Froyo by Laszlo thread page 97ish and forth)
Alright. I'm trying my very best but I'm really clueless right now.
After not getting this wifi to work I tried the COS-DS mod. Installing it and everything went fine, except for one thing: the settings menu would not open.
Not being able to do anything on that I went on to the next to the next rom: Cyanogenmod 7 Magpie. Once again, most things work, but some do not. I started out with an input.latin error, which I somehow fixed. I do not have a status bar, and I think I'm missing some other things too... for example, the android market does not appear. Wifi does work now though.
I have no clue what's going on... do I just need to start over from scratch? Trying Froyo again? I could really use some advise.

Have you tried wiping properly before flashing the new roms because I've never had a wi-fi issue unlees it was broken in the kernel which is rare these days.
Thank you for replying.
I am back to Froyo by Laszlo now, seems the best option. Before installing that I wiped cache, wiped data/factory reset, and I used Ohsaka Superwipe. But no Wifi.
Using another Kernel with Froyo by Laszlo did not help.
Well, last update here. Never got it to work, now having succes with GingerYoshi. This topic can be locked.
try everything???? re partition and re format sd card, try ezbifftest 2708 kernel, i had best luck with laszlo rom
First of all, thank you for your guide.
I had not actually partioned before installing froyo, and I did partition before using Ginger right now.
If I would repartion right now, and then reformat... can I then instantly install froyo laszlo and the kernel? And what values for the partioning?
you can flash a rom whenever you want, as long as you wipe all data from previous rom or mod first,so i would repartition to this
96-128mb=swap
512mb=ext
than flash the ohsaka superwipev2, power off device than reboot back to recovery.
flash the rom you want and enjoy!!
re-partitioning/re-formatting does not have to be done everytime.. it's just good to do every once in a while because you never know what could be happening in there... you or a developers rom could have done something somewhere that caused a bug in your sd partitions so its always good to wipe them at some point...
the ohsaka superwipe i do reccomend using everytime!! I also recommend wiping it manually sometimes... also another good known method is a fastboot wipe 'i forget the cmd for it' lol but do these every once in a while...
Did exactly as you said, unfortunately I still get the same problem: Cannot scan for networks.
I will stick to Gingeryoshi for the moment.
Thank you for your time and help.
wow, thats a bummer... i never had that issue with laszlo's rom at all... i wonder what could be wrong. sorry i couldn't help.. just out of curiosity what device do you have? is it a dream or magic?
possibly if you are using a magic, you may need a kernel with wlan.ko modules included for the specific kernel(would be icluded in kernel.zip file)... different kernels wont work with different drivers...
It is a Dream
hi there,
im still new to the o2x (got my phone yesterday) but i is comfortable with flashing android. i used to own a milestone and flashing roms but not KERNELS.
So my prooblem here is that i can never flash a kernel it will either end up in a boot loop or screen will just turn black. M i missing something here?
History;
1)Phone came with GB update yesterday.
2)rooted with the NVflash method.
3)DOwnloaded Rom manager and flash CWR via the app("flash CWR").
3)Then flashed CM7 stable.
p/s: i never flash any baseband, RIL...
I also picked the correct kernel that states for CM7..
and also im using a 8gb sd card.
your advice will be highly appreciated. thank you very muchh!!~
Hello!
Ok, 1st when you come from a stock GB you need to flash a baseband that is woking with CM7 as the stock GB-baseband is not...
Always before flashing format /cache, /system and wipe dalvik.
Install CM7-stable/nightly/KANG
Install gapps
Install kernel
Reboot
1st reboot might end in boot loop - pull battery after a few minutes - then you should be good to go.
If you still have a boot loop recheck everything. Maybe redownload rom or kernel – it might be broken.
thank you very much for your pm and reply. So implanning to revert back to froyo so that i dont need to flash any baseband am i right?. and try again...anyway is ril important?
on a side note, from wwhat i know, u need to flash the baseband that is closest to your country m i right? but im abit confuse after reading the post about baseband because they say certain baseband is better than the others.
Ok im a bit confuse now... so sorry dude...wht do you suggest I do now.. currently im on CM7 stable. just wanna flash the kernel.
1) i wanna revert back to stock to start all over gain. but i dont know which i to choose there r so many to choose..V20, v10 etc..which 1 is for CM7?...
**my aim is cm7 stable with [CM7 KERNEL][Dec12-REBASEv2] ironkrnL -- vork's bastard stepson**
2) i should flash baseband after this rite?..same prob...which 1 to choose?
lets say i flash this BIN_LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28-2011+0.zip. can i just flash any random baseband or it needs to be in the same category'??
thank you very much for your advice...
MY GOAL: stable CM7 + ironkrnL -- vork's bastard stepson
ok heres an update...i reverted back to stock...
Android version:2.3.4
baseband: 1035.21_20110225 (does this mean that it is 0725?)
kernel version: 2.6.32.9
build number: GRJ22
LGE version: LGP990-V20e
it is based on the stock firmware:
BIN_LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28-2011+0.zip
1)So my plan is, Im gonna root it with this method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327599
(w busy box installed)
2)then im gonna download Rom Manager from market and install CWM from the app.
3) after this im gonna backup the whole rom and start flashing bbaseband (which i dont know which i too choose yet rite now. after much reading, some say the 0218 is good for CM7 stable so im gonna use that.
4) ill be wiping everything (data/cache/dalvik) and flash 1) CM7 stable 2) Google apps 3) the target kernel accordingly.
let see how it goes.I hope i ll be right this time...
that kernel was very unstable for me, had tons of reboots and bootloops . maybe try an other kernel if it doesnt work.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
use vorkkernel if iron kernel gives you reboot and bootloop
why don't use nvflash recovery from paul obrien.
Code:
http://android.modaco.com/topic/335474-25-mar-nvflash-stock-rom-release-v10b-dated-1300166062-15032011/
don't forget to install get ril app
Thanks for your reply. Yeah..i only had the chance to use nvflash once. After i flash cm7 , i have to press both volme up and down and usb instead of just pressing volume down and usb. Because of that i m always stuck at "nvflash started"
at last...i had nvflash working....thank the gods!....It appears tht u have to keep on trying until u it works for nvflash to execute..(I was stuck a " nvflash started ").
so heres a question. what baseband is usable for CM7 stable?..
after i flashed the based, basically i just hav to get the app get ril and im done for the first stage right?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Hello!
Any baseband compatible with Froyo is working with CM7.
I would use 0725 or 0823 some people recommend 0622 - they say it has least battery drainage...
For me personally 0823 works best since it gives me better reception indoors, which is far more important than battery life (at least to me ).
But you might have to do your own tests, since this might be influenced by factors like Provider and personal profile of usage.
I would recommend you start with 0725.
The best guide is this German one…
http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/lg_op...-lg_optimus_speed_p990_aktuelle_baseband.html
English How-Tos are here…
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070
I would say download baseband from 23.08.11(BB 0823) or 25.07.2011(BB 0725) from the German page at handy-faq.de and follow the English How-To.
The baseband Zipfile from Version 0823 contains 4 files – flash them in descending order of size. Baseband 0725 is only one file – this might be easier…
After this boot back to recovery install CM7, install gapps and kernel if needed…
Get GetRIL from the market (you could place this on you SD-card before) or LG RIL Version and download/install the corresponding RIL-Version…
Then reboot and you should be good to go…
...and BTW: I wouldn't use CM7 stable since this is rather old now and since its release there have been a vast amount of bug fixes and new features added.
I would go for the latest KANGs (see my sig.).
A2DP Bluetooth support for instance is now perfect. My phone connects to my cars radio and build in hands free unit without glitches, whenever Bluetooth is activated– that didn’t work with CM7 stable! Audio streaming works perfectly etc.
And if you want to save one step and you are planning in flashing a stock rom 1st because you fell your phone is messed up – use a froyo based rom 10d or something and you don’t need to flash a new baseband…
…and yes to have a corresponding RIL is important since a matching BB/RIL compo makes reception better and helps prevent glitches and crashes – but installing a corresponding/matching RIL is easy (see above).
thanks alot.... im now using 0622 (ginger) with the compatible 0622 ril based on LG getRil. what i did was i flash a froyo rom with nvflash. then flash baseband with smartflash tool. then i flash cm7. everything was right until....the kernel part...i downloaded the the vorkkernel app and downloaded the kernel from there. Still no success in flashing the kernel..the screen will just go black and continue that way...sigH~..i wonder what is the problem...
i ll try the kang in your signiture..Im sleepless for ddays because of this kernel..
P/S; iwonder why i cant wipe dalvik cache. it says "E:unknown volume for path [sd-ext]"
Hello!
Again gingerbread based basebands aren’t compatible with CM7 - they might work at first but you get loss of signal, crashes etc.
No need to flash new baseband when you come from a froyo based rom!
I wouldn’t use vorkkernel since it is to old – use ironkrnL.
CM7 stable is very old – use latest KANG.

Use either no ramhack version or 32MB ramhack version (but reboot won't work 32MB hack - but it is faster).
Wouln't use higher ramhack version since some things like camera or video recording certain games etc won't work anymore.
Best compromise for me is the 32MB hack since these extra 32MB speed up things considerably and only reboot doesn’t work – I can do without it. Shut down and then reboot isn’t that bad.

Hello!
This depends on the version of ROM you flash...
i.e. v10d Euro open contains BB/RIL 0725 - if you flash something older you might get an older BB.
But 0622 is fine - it is even recommend by certain forums because some people report better battery life with it compared to the newer BBs – so if your reception is ok with that, no need to change it.
Dont stone me if repost, but believe it is not, I honestly tried to study this and other forums for last almost 2 weeks without any results:
I got Mini2 with GB stock ROM and first rooted (using Poot exploit) and upgraded gradually to CWM 6.0.4.5 and CM 10.1 and later CM 11. Didnt discovered any problems except for sdcard0 mount problem as described may times. sdcard0 is not mountable under CWM 6.0.4.5 and CM11 but I think that this can be solved using other threads in this forums, so not a matter here and now, however, it may hint you what is possibly going on. The main thing is, that after trying to experiment with OC kernel, my WiFi always indicates ERROR when trying to switch it on. No matter if in Stock ROM or CM (any version). I tried to reflash Stock and CM (10.1; 10.2 and 11), even repartitioned with ODIN (3.09) and reflashed Stock ROM. No improvement, no change.
Strange thing is, that it was said, that after flashin CM (or CWM not clear now), the offline battery charging does NOT work and phone alway reboots. That can be confirmed by me, but with that exception, that it does NOT work either after reflashing Stock ROM and Stock RECOVERY. Even after this, phone never switches OFF when connected to the charger, just reboots.
I have always did full WIPE (data,cache, format system).

I am a PC guy, not an Android specialist, but from everlasting WiFi problems and offline charging not working even with Stock ROM and Stock recovery, it looks, like something somewhere got left from my tries with either OC kernel or CWM/CM and prevents Wifi from being switched on. Curently my Stock is rooted so I can get some logs/info anybody can need willing to help/investigate..
Any help or pointers to troubleshooting are highly appreciated as I really love my little cute Mini II.

BUT most importantly to me is the fact that I have all my wonderful apps on my s4, I want to be able to use them by using the LG phone as a tether and calls not much else BUT CM10.1 tethering does not work, so i find myself flashing rom after rom, avatar rom, older CM mods, none would turn on tethering, so i flashed a modded version of MIUI for this phone and it worked except for ONE thing no signal, tethering turned on just fine so i decided to look around for other roms and found Slimrom TRYED to flash it didnt work, try to flash actual MIUI roms off there site, didnt work, met with an error in CWM Recovery after some searching I found its because Im running the OLD Bootloader -_- THIS is the issue im having IF MIUI does NOT work is it possible to downgrade the bootloader again so i can restore my CM10.1 backup? I have been working at this for a week, if there is something here about this can someone please just point me at it? I would appreciate any help.
On a side note i DID soft brick the phone the other day and found a program called nvflash witch flashed an install of CM mod. Dont know if that will help any.

I really do not understand how other ROMs deny Tethering. Did you flash the latest 2.x kernel by pengus77 after installing the rom? Did you make a clean install(wipe everything then install)? On the other hand, yes you can switch bootloaders as much as you like, just remember that changing the bootloader wipes everything on your internal memory, so do a backup. Did you try just plain old stock 4.0.4? Should work there. Ask anything you want, if you're still having questions.

As to the flashing to stock i lost the original rom backup i had made along time ago and cant find the original firmware anywhere online. When I flashed CM 10.1 I just ran with it, when i go to try tethering it says "Turning on portable wifi hotspot." and it stays on that no matter what untill i restart, left the phone running for 2 days once and that was still stuck on that before i restarted. As for flashing a 2.x kernel i had no idea about that. But yes when i did the installs i would do a clean wipe and install. Most of what i read online led me to believe that there was an error with CM 10.1 nightlys that was not being fixed for the tethering. So that is why i decided to go to another rom. Two questions one how do i go about finding the original firmware for this phone and two how would i go about updating or downgrading the bootloaders and could i be pointed to the files please?

As to the flashing to stock i lost the original rom backup i had made along time ago and cant find the original firmware anywhere online. When I flashed CM 10.1 I just ran with it, when i go to try tethering it says "Turning on portable wifi hotspot." and it stays on that no matter what untill i restart, left the phone running for 2 days once and that was still stuck on that before i restarted.

Okay, This is SFSP by @sgspluss which is a pretty fast, stable and battery-friendly slimmed down version of stock ICS. It is available for both Old and NewBL, so you might want to try that first. This is AIO Toolkit. I know that you've used it and bricked your phone, but try again, and for the love of God install the nvflash drivers because most people skip that part. You have to do it manually and if you're running Windows 8 you need to disable Driver Signature Verification. But yeah, you switch bootloaders with this.
