I've been having problems with my phone not staying connected to my Parrot mki9200 in car handsfree kit.. It will pair fine, then will connect ok but then at any random moment will just disconnect for no reason. I then have to reboot to reconnect.
I am currently on 2.2.1 roms kitchen with ZSJPG modem. I have flashed different modems and tried multiple firmwares on my parrot.
I have also tried the bluetooth fix app from the market.
Is the firmware for the bluetooth in the modem?
Any suggestions anyone?
TIA
From what I can find, and not being a dev myself, it appears that the Bluetooth stack is part of the Kernel, not the Modem in Android. That would make sense as the Kernel is where the hardware drivers are located.
Which Kernel are you using with your ROM? Perhaps you may want to try a different one and see if that solves the problem.
Yeah i'm currently on Hardcores kernal before that just stock froyo 2.1 then 2.2
Maybe try to swap to another kernel, such as Damian's or SOK, just to see if it changes the situation.
Remember to disable any lagfixes before flashing.
Thanks I'll give that a shot and see if anything changes.

Hi all,
I'm getting seriously confused with android-wifi-tether not working! Basically i have tried various custom ROMs (all Android 2.1) and various versions of wifi tether. I've even installed jacobs newer kernels.
There are no errors when i start tether. But when i connect with a laptop (tried many) the laptop goes through the motion of connecting successfully, the phone does not acknowledge the laptops connection and the laptop does not get a proper IP address.
I checked it out with Logcat, no errors on android-wifi-tether start, and when a computer connects, no logs are generated at all.
It has been working on the phone when i was running Wildpuzzle 2.1 1.0.0 i reverted to the rom but still nothing.
I've always installed a fresh rom with a full wipe also.
Whats interesting is i flashed my other halfs wildfire and it has the same issue (although not tried a variety of roms on it).
If anyone has any suggestions or ways of diagnosing. I would really appreciate it!!
There is something lingering somewhere on the phone.
Many Thanks, Dan

My kernel only fixes it for 2.2 ROMs (and not Sense atm)
No luck if you're on 2.1, sorry.
I had this problem on 2.1 and had to find a new bin file as described in /code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/wiki/Setup_HTC_Desire_Incredible. After I did this it all worked OK.
I now use Cyangenmod 6.1 RC2 Build 41 and use the internal Froyo 2.2 Wifi tether and it works just fine. ( Thanks Jacob )

Didn't think that would work for 2.1 but I was clearly wrong xD
i had to also run the
Code:
ip route add table gprs 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.254
is there anyway this fix can be included with 2.1 roms automatically?
Looks like i spoke to soon, gets an IP now and the phone acknowledges the connection but i cannot ping anything from the laptop :S
It appears if i run
Code:
ip route add table gprs 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.254.
once tethering has been started it begins to work and the laptop can download.
Any ideas?
Problem fixed!!
I thought i'd share:
I edited
/data/data/android.tether/bin/fixroute.sh
after the sleep 2
and before the done at the end of the file i added
Code:
/system/bin/ip route add table gprs 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.254
I also modified the sleep to 10, just in case it need a few seconds for eth0 to kick in.
Works perfectly and everytime.
Of course you need to do it everytime you install the binaries.
Hello. I am running Simpfinity 1.5 with default kernel it came with and modem, In their thread here in the forums they say I can install the stock modem and kernel to get bluetooth working.
My question is do I need to undo all the lagfixes before installing a stock kernel and modem ?
I am trying to get bluetooth voice dialing to work. Not just clear up the sound, altho clear sound is better than nothing
I am open to a new ROM all together.. I NEED bluetooth. Thanks guys.
Download and try cognition 3.04....this has the default rogers modem.
Alternatively, at the bottom of the first post of simpfinity they have a link to get bluetooth writing.
Note that bluetooth voice dialing is not enabled on the rogers captivates.
I don't think you need to disable the lag fixes. I have flashed numerous roms without any issue.

What do you mean not enabled ? When I had stock 2.2, I click the button on my headset and It looks like its listening but its not.
Are you telling me that I will never get voice dialing in my rogers I896 ?
Hey folks. I'm running on a stock UXKH2, flashed through Odin. I'm not rooted because it seemed like a lot of doing, but everything else is working perfectly except for my wifi.
I'm able to see networks but I can't connect to them. I've tried a few open networks as well as a few secured ones, including my home network. All the security was checked and double checked and I still can't seem to get a lock. I'm wondering if I should be flashing a custom modem?
Quite interesting post actually..I would love to see how people response to this..
no such thing as a custom modem, they're all stock modems just different releases...
have you tried forgetting networks turning off wifi, clearing cache and dalvik cache and trying to connect again?
you may have to reflash, i posted a zip in the kj2 thread for rooting, you just flash boog's kernel with odin and then flash that zip i posted in cwm. not all that difficult. so that you can backup your stuff before you reflash and restore after..
I know some of these older GB ROMs had wifi issues. I'm more familiar with the US distros but I'm sure the same was /is true for Rogers' too.
I have this issue all the time. One day the phone connects to the access point with no problems. The next day it refuses to connect and "disables" the connection. The only thing that seems to fix it is reflashing. And that's such a pain!
Sent from my Captivate
i have recently rooted my captivate and i am using new android 2.3.5 and kk4 kernal.
All the basic things i know like flight mode disable etc.
Problem:
1. wifi shows error
2. mac address unavailable in advance tab
3. Bluetooth not working
4. There is no file in /data/wifi folder
Required:
1. please tell me is it hardware error or software.
2. where is wifi and bluetooth drivers in android os (i need location plz)
3. i have to know how i can debug my wifi
and last thing please share some body /data/wifi folder files
i shell be very thankful to you people.
Software
To me this sounds like a software error. I would recommend you try a new ROM with a new kernel and a new modem, preferably one that is know to work well with Captivates. If i may suggest, try DarkyROM at www.darkyrom.com, i can help flash that if you would like, you won't regret it, amazing rom.
I'm not sure if its a software error. I have the same issue. I tried a bunch of different roms while doing a master clear/factory reset. I ended up with the same wifi error on any platform... It was a hardware problem for me.
Time to get a new phone buddy if you haven't already tried flashing different roms
Im having the same problem, and have flashed different roms. What about buying a new antenna? That's what I'm thinking.
hello everyone, I just registered here for a couple issues with my girlfriend's i9001, it basically can't find Wifi connections, once you click the button to activate the wifi, it shows a green check for few mins while looking for connections and suddenly it deactivates by itself...
I read around about a file to remove via terminal emulator, the bcm_supp.conf one, but I can't find that file...
does anyone have any idea/solution for it? currently she uses internet via 3g (monthly charges) but it would be cool to be able to use the home wifi...
about bluetooth instead, it just can't find other bluetooth devices and vice versa, my nokia 5800 can't find it even if the "visible" option is activated.
ideas?
I'm going crazy about it, I already tried several hard resets and flashed the phone first with 2.3.5 and then with 2.3.6 firmwares... nothing fixed the issues...
thanks in advance for any response
ps: sorry for my english, I'm italian >_<
i had exactly the same wifi issue but flashing a new rom solved the problem. reset and reflashing the same rom didn't help. you tried several 2.3.6 versions?
you might try flashing another modem.

it had the official 2.3.5 (italy), I flashed it with the same firmware and nothing happened, re-flashed it with 2.3.6 (Baltic 13th June 2012) and nothing happened...
noone knows?
