NC CM7 Wifi Issues/Switching to Stable - Nook Color General

I rooted my NC about a month ago with the latest CM7 nightly. Everything was working great until last night when my wifi completely stopped working. It is not picking up any wifi networks at all. I've seen that this has been a problem with others.
Can anyone point me in the direction of instructions on what I need to do to fix this. i.e. how to flash back to a stable version.
I'm not as savvy in this sort of thing as a lot of other people on here are. I just can't figure out how to go back to a stable version to hopefully fix the wifi. Do I need to wipe the NC clean? What is the best way to fix this?
Thanks a lot!

[Q] Official Froyo FRF91 needed!

I know I can root and install custom ROM but I want to stick with the official one since I use my N1 for work.
Now, the problem is I bought my N1 month and a half ago and ever since then I have replaced or swapped 5 N1s mostly due to hardware issues! Finally yesterday I got one more swap and I was so happy that the hardware was perfect! But it seems to have issues holding internet connection and downloading! Though it says "3G" or it is connected to wi-fi, the internet stop working randomly!!
I am oncall for my work and this damn thing didn't get single email last night! Luckily I had no major events!
I hate to send this one back and start the same old game again! I feel maybe if I reload the software, it might get fixed! In the mean time, I have reset my phone to default twice and still the issue seems to persist!
Does anyone else had this issue and were able to fix it? Or can someone post a link to download the official zip so I can reload Froyo!
Any help is much appreciated!
You should be able to find a completely stock froyo in this thread here
Great! Thank you so much! So I just need to download and flash the update.zip on top of my current FRF91, correct?
Yeah, that should do it. Good luck, hope you get your problem fixed.
Yep! That seem to have done it! Last night I had no issues receiving emails! Thanks again!

Looking for some help...

..In picking out which is the best droid setup for me.
I was here months back when I setup droid on my Vogue(US Cellular) and over the course of a couple days of trying out different builds and testing, I found that Warm Doughnut was the best working one for me at the time. Unlike the Froyo build on here that I tried, doughnut's data connection worked fine (and right away) without any setup at all whereas I couldn't get it running for the life of me on Froyo.
However, I'm wanting to swap out past doughnut now to a more updated version of Android. Which would you all recommend? I've been reading some good reviews on the Gingerbread build... However, I'm worried about calls/sms/data and all of the other features... Which are working which aren't?
I'd have to have them all working (like current setup on doughnut) to make the switch, else it'll just be pointless for me.
Now I ask the same of the FroYo build on here. Before it worked fine for me, except the data functions... I couldn't get it to connect at all for the life of me.
So, I ask of you all with more experience with this phone than me. What would you suggest? What works for you? Doughnut, Froyo, or Gingerbread?
I want to get Froyo running if I can (about to put it back on and give it a go) but not having a data connection will kill the idea for me. And even better would be if I can get Gingerbread running, but only if I can get in/outgoing calls, sms, data, (gps hopefully) and bluetooth.
Thanks in advance for any/all support you guys can give me!
Superfroyo seems very stable and functional to me. I'm on Sprint. Even MMS works though you have to fiddle with it. Gingerbread's not all there yet stabilitywise.

Thanks for the reply! I felt the same when I tried it out months ago, my only issue is getting the data running... Did you have to fiddle with yours a lot to get it working? I know you're on Sprint and I'm on US Cellular, but from what I can tell the two shouldn't be that different to setup. Maybe I didn't give it enough time/work before to get data running (or maybe I was doing it wrong).
Also, I'm going to be using it from my SD card (like I have previously) for a while and make sure its solid before I think about wiping my WM6.1 off and replacing it altogether. Doughnut worked fine off of the SD card, I'm assuming Froyo will as well? Didn't give it too much time before, but when I did have it going on the SD card before I didn't notice it chugging along at all.
Another thing, do I have to use WM6.5 to get this going, or is it ok using WM6.1 like I am? Would prefer not to have to redo (and backup all that nonsense) for my 6.1 if I don't have to.
I totally wiped windows mobile and run off nand. It's snappy enough and data worked straight off. No fiddling.

Well, got Froyo running... But no data running yet... Enabled Data, enabled data while roaming (roaming majority of the time anyways) and nothing yet...
Ideas anyone?

The typical question is: does it work in winmo?

Did you drop it or something?
I've actually had this problem quite frequently with 2.3 based roms, most notably with the SteelDroid rom.
The only way I could ever get wifi re-enabled was to mess around with bringing it up and down. All I can suggest it to keep persisting with turning it off and on and you should get it back sooner or later, at least that's what my endeavors have shown.
I believe it's a wifi driver issue since the problem doesn't exist for me when I fall back to 2.2 based roms. If I run into the issue again, I'll post a logcat of for it and hopefully that will help someone who know's more about this to help you. If you could provide a logcat, that would be even better.
In 2.3-based roms I usually had to switch Wi-Fi several times to make it work, while in some Froyo-based roms I had to reboot (also on few 2.3 roms that use older kernel).

[Q] Haven't flashed in a while, help please

I haven't updated my SCH-I800 in a while and I notice that there is now a stable "cm-9.1.0-p1c.zip" on the cyanogenmod site but also CM10 builds (cm-10-20130714-NIGHTLY-p1c.zip) as recently as last week. The forums for the I800 aren't up right now so I thought I'd ask here if these CM10s are actually functioning well or if they have lots of missing features. And as much as I dig, I seem to only find half working ROMs or extremely experimental ones that have basic things like WiFi missing. Is there a solid stock Samsung ROM and a solid AOSP ROM that everyone uses at this mater point in this tablet's lifespan?
And is there a new method for flashing at all? Or is ODIN still the way?
Thanks!!!

I have spent the last week or so trying to get an SCH-i800 to run something OTHER than the stock gingerbread well and just haven't found it yet. The closest I got was a build of CM9 but still have sporadic reboots.
It's frustrating since the only thing I want this to do is run some OBD apps for my car. The problem is that apps detect Gingerbread and run in phone mode vs. tablet mode, wasting a bunch of screen space.
Cubed has been pretty much the only non-stock rom that didn't have FC's and random reboots. I don't even use the cellular feature of this tablet - I'd be happy just disabling the modem entirely and running on wifi if it meant it being more stable.
I'm considering just getting a Nexus 7, but the problem is that this thing would need to live in my car and I don't feel like doing that with a new tablet which is why I was trying to get the i800 to work

[Q] need recommendation on rom, looking for built in USB tether

Hi, there. Basically just spent all of last night slaving away trying to fix my phone only to make everything progressively worse, and all of this morning having someone (thank you, BD619!) help me fix it, all because of me trying out some new roms.
Anyway i'm looking for something with a built-in tether that works off of USB (my laptop's wifi is broken). And having something with working GPS is pretty important for me too. I was on CM10.2 previously and the USB tether worked fine, but i couldn't get the GPS to work right for the life of me. And Viper's rom is the one that essentially sent me into non-stop boot loop mode, so that's out of there as far as what i'm willing to try.
I have tried other variations of CM like PA and slim, but i'd always end up having some kind of issues with the broadband or GPS. Others didn't even plain install. FWIW before today i did not have s-off, but now i do.
Would greatly appreciate any advice here. Please let me know if this is in the wrong section. Thanks
