I am having a problem connecting to my wifi. I had my nook rooted and worked perfectly, one day when i tried to turn it on and it would not boot out of the load screen. I tried to re-flash so i went into recovery and i wipped it clean with the cache and partition. After reflashing i would go into the screen where you set up the nook for the first time and when i get to the WI-FI connection screen it says trying to find WI-FI but nothing ever comes up. Anyone have ideas or heard of this?
Thanks for the help!
Did you happen to disable your network's SSID?
no its enabled. Any other ideas?

Hi,
I am running CM 4.0.4 and it has been working great. For the past week or so i have been experiencing connection dropping. Every now and again, increasingly, i have been getting connection errors.
I am using the market, browsing and downloading some apps or on the web, then all of a sudden, it says connection error. I have tried using the browser and other apps that use the internet, and they time out. I then tried calling a number, it showed the usual grey dialling image, then after a few seconds it goes red and days call ended. it never gets to green.
The really odd thing is that i have full signal and the 3g logo is shown. Also the 3g up arrow flashes white but the down arrow stays grey.
has anyone else been having this problem? is it a software thing that can be fixed by wiping or is it a hardware problem and i need to contact T-Mobile? Also, if i do wipe, is it safe to restore from backup or could the error be in the backup too?
Chris
Is noone having these issues?
reflash the radio, if that doesn't help, make a back up, wipe, reflash rom, and see if that fixed it, if not, wipe, flash another rom entirely, and see, if that doesn't unroot your phone, then see if it does it with stock, if it is still happening with stock call t-mobile
Hello,
I've updated my SGS to Froyo via Kies a few days back. It all went smooth and dandy, my phone working correctly, no problem at all.
Two days ago I checked my phone's APN setting and couldn't find any, but restarting the phone fixed this problem.
Yesterday while I was working, my SGS suddenly restarted by itself, no problem with the restart, the phone was working correctly and I didn't give it much thought as I thought it was a glitch.
Today, about the same time yesterday, the phone restarted itself again. the restart went smoothly too, but I'm worried that this might foreshadow a bigger problem.
Does anybody have this experience? Will this restarts stop by itself? Did the problem became worse? Please if anybody has similar experience, do kindly share it here Thanks in advance!
Did you wipe data after installing Froyo? I experienced reboots on connecting power to phone (no matter if AC or USB) after upgrading. Restoring default settings from recover menu fixed that.
P.S.
backup first!
yep, did a factory reset and remove cache. i restored some apps from eclair though, via Titanium Backup. Thanks for reminding me though!
This has become a minor irritant... when I first installed CM7 my Nook Color was happy to connect to wi-fi directly after rebooting.
At some point in the past week I attempted toggling airplane mode just to see what it would do. The checkbox doesn't stay checked, as it seems to error out of trying to enter that mode. Subsequent to that attempt, every time I reboot, the tablet starts up with wi-fi disabled. I can turn it back on and it works, but after a reboot it's off again.
Has anyone else run into this?

yup, lots of people. This might help http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18630-wifi-not-working/
Thanks for the link. I tried the solution of forgetting a secured network and then re-adding it. Rebooting now to see if that killed the "ghost airplane mode"...
No it didn't. Wifi is still off post-reboot.
Trying the sqlite instructions to see if that works... YES! Perfect solution.

I was all ready to flash the ROM again when I found the sqlite fix. My first time messing around with editing DB's. Worked for me too! WHEW!
I know this is old but all you need to do is download "Android Assistant" and turn off the Airplane Mode via the settings.
Thank you for the link. The only answer that worked for me.

I'm not gonna BS anyone. I'm clueless!!
I lent my phone to a friend for a few days and he installed one of the ICS roms on it. A few days later I realized that it would no longer keep wifi active. Anytime I'd attempt to turn wifi on it would say error and time out.
I figured no biggie I'll just Odin back. So I Odin'd back to Eclair and still no wifi. Even worse... when I boot the phone it takes exactly 33 minutes to get past the "Galaxy S" screen. It isn't frozen as I can see the S throbbing.
Another symptom of my problems is that the haptic feedback is gone.
In recap, No wifi, no haptic and a loooong boot.
As I said earlier, the problems persist in stock form as well as CM7.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK, The weirdness continues. I decided to try roms I've used in the past to see if anything changed. I started off with Andromeda 1.0. The boot time is now back to normal and I've regained haptic feedback.
Unfortunately I still don't have wifi. It'll now allow me to enable wifi and it'll attempt a scan but comes back with "unable to scan networks". I attempted to manually add multiple networks and get the error "unable to save the network" then wifi gets disabled.
I'm at a loss at this point so I'm hopeful someone can come through.

When you Odin'd back to Stock, did you Master Clear too?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I did do a master clear. Internal SD has been wiped but the problems continue.
The haptic feedback and boot time return to normal when I flashed Andromeda 1.0 but go bad again when I go back to stock.
Just went back to stock and am waiting the 30 minutes for the phone to boot so I can do another master clear. Can't see the second finding any residual files that the first didn't get but you never know I guess.
I just noticed that my Bluetooth isn't working either.
Data and cell work just fine though.
so... latest recap...
Currently running Andromeda3. The phone boots just fine in a nice fast timeframe. Haptic feedback is working fine.
Wifi and Bluetooth are no go's. Just don't get it
Hey guys,
I have a htc one m7 which cannot turn on wifi (says error eventually) and keeps rebooting when entering sleep mode.
I already flashed the latest RUU I could fine and the flash seems to actually go through with one little hickup:
The command prompt finishes alright but on the phone itself the flashing progress bar gets stuck at around 90%. The phone turns on fine when I force a reboot after this but wifi wont and that reboots also remain.
Do you think this is a hardware issue? I'd say so but not 100% sure. Or any ideas how to fix it software wise?
And do you think I could stop it from rebooting by removing / turning off wifi completely? Aka removing the corresponding binary files like wpa_supplicant etc?
Have you heard of behaviour like this before?
ADD: suddenly wifi works and the reboots stopped.. didnt do anything.. so i guess its actually some hardware issue that might come back.
