I dont think you can do it with stock rom.
Try zeus rom.
You can also use an app to do it.
It is called rebooter.

If he's on stock he probably doesn't have recovery or root access

He's rooted but i don't think he has recovery?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859515
So IF he boot recovery it will just factory reset.
Made that mistake myself.

If you are rooted and have no recovery just get Rom manager from play store and install recovery from it, the app also has a reboot in recovery option

This is the easiest way.
Procedure for our newbie friend.
1. Download rom manager from play store.
2. Open the apps then click flash ClockworkMod Recovery (need internet connection to flash)
3. After flashing click Reboot into recovery
I suggest that use the old clockworkmod(Version 5.0.2.6) because base from my experienced i always have a hard time rebooting using the touch version. It's like there is a time out, i ended always into bootloop and it takes an hour to reboot.

installing cm10 on mini

i am new to this. i downloaded cm10 and put that into my sd card. next i rooted the phone using superoneclick. i checked the root status using an app. it showed successful rooting. next i wiped all the data as i was instructed. then i chose update from sd card and selected the cm10.zip file.
some installation process initiated and then aborted again giving the following error:
E:Error in /tmp/sideloadpackage.zip (status 7)
any way around this?

You have to have cwm installed to flash custom roms

Once make sure that the zip is fully downloaded, if possible check md5 checksum of the zip

Install another Recovery. It should be version 5.x.x.x. and if you use touch currently, try to use non touch version.

CM10 Stable is as good as the nightlies, the bugs were never fixed. God bless all who will flash this stable thinking that it's mostly bug free and get a huge shock

Thank you guys for all your suggestions.
Installed cm 10 stable but nothing great, its same as nightlys with some bugs.

How do you know it did not work?
Maybe it worked and you don't even know
Because OTA Updater will FC even after that
To check if it worked
Go to settings>about phone>keep clicking on 4.1
If you see Jelly Bean
It worked
If gingerbread
Try again

WiFi not working after flashing custom ROM

Hey guys, I just installed nik's new project x rebirth 3.6 because it looked amazing!
So I wiped data
Wiped cache
I flashed the ROM
And then I Rebooted
I went through the setup everything was fine just that the slider for WiFi was greyed out and it says and is stuck on "turning on..."
I waited really long to see what would happen but no success
All I see it error
I kept trying and trying but no luck
I did everything from wiping data and cache
I reinstalled the ROM
And I flashed and ICS kernel I had lying around on my sdcard but yet no success.
BTW I did not flash a kernel when I flashed the ROM
I flashed an ICS kernel after wiping the data and cache many times thinking it would work
Someone please help! Thanks

WiFi should work. It might be a recovery related problem. What recovery are you currently using?

I checked bugs everything is working
And also I'm using clockword mod 6. Something

Use 4EXT or ClockworkMod v5.0.2.0. V6 is only a port and therefore, there can be some bugs. I know that 4EXT and CWM 5.0.2.0 work. 4EXT is kind of like a modified CWM with extra features here and there. Its also officially supported.

I believe it is kernel related..

Kangaroo Kernel's WiFi works. That is a fact. If it doesn't work, then it might be recovery related where the recovery might not be flashing some modules correctly and whatnot. I used to have the same problem except with dla5244's port of TWRP. That is why I suggested OP use Official ClockworkMod or 4EXT.

Thank you guys so much
It was actually the the recovery
I flashed Clockwordmod v5 and it worked like a charm
thanks guy!

no
at least none that I'm aware of.
4EXT recovery has an app and when you download the file, it will automatically flash for you.

So I just download the recovery file and flash it through the existing recovery (4ext touch) to change it to cwm?
And will this fix wifi?

No, you need to put the phone in FASTBOOT USB mode and use the command that was posted.
FASTBOOT is different than recovery mode.

No download ROM manager or 4EXT Recovery Updater (the latter may require a bit more searching).
As i've never really used ROM manager (nor would i ever recommend CWM over 4EXT), I can't really help you there.
For 4EXT Recovery Updater, you will need to wait a bit for downloads and stuff (roughly 5 minutes). After click install/update. Choose touch or normal (i use touch). Select version. It will download and then after downloads finish, it will flash the recovery for you.

Guys I am well aware of Rom manager and 4ext app control ;D
I just want to change my recovery to cwm or something else than 4ext rc9 because hopefully that will fix my wifi (turning on) error
And I am asking if there is a way easier than the command prompt way
