hi,
lately i have been experimenting with my velocity, been trying to find some good roms, no such luck accept for a couple,
the on that is 98% working is the Elagancia rom,
the 2% not working is the wifi and sometimes bluetooth, as we all know this problem is because there is no MAC address assigned, apparently this is because the kernel version has been flashed to many times,
anyway other roms like dark raider, holics and some others have error boxes pop up on the screen nearly every second, and yep, this is very annoying,
So, can anyone help me out with this wifi problem?
Cheers,
Luke.
Manually fglash boot.img

I have tried several roms over the last few days but all have shared the same issue. I tried both the Sh3lby roms and Duttys roms. When I flash it everything works fine, it installs ok and everything appears to work. However, whenever the phone has an error or when I soft-rest or turn the phone off, all my files are deleted and I need to set-up the os again (align screen etc). So essentially everytime my phone is turned off or restarted it performs a hard-rest. Does anyone know any solution to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Update - Returning to stock rom appears to have solved the issue. Thank-you for the replies.

I'm not sure what the cause is but I have seen the same thing on some of the newer builds.

Did you follow the flashing guide? What method did you use? Did you do at least one hard reset after flashing? If you provide more information on how you flashed your phone, it would be helpful.

I used the flashing rom guide in the past, however, I think I am familiar with flashing now and have flashed many successful roms in the past without this issue. I hard reseted after flashing too :S
Have a look Here
Please delete.
I had the same issue recently. Flashing back to a stock rom, hard resetting then flashing the desired cooked rom resolved the issue for me.
had to follow the same procedure for the first time in 70+ flashes of my HD over the last 8 months! never once thought it would help, but it did. fyi, my problem was a freezing, unresponsive device immediately after waking from sleep. it's been 4 days since and no issues...
After the forced AT&T software update, my WiFi will not turn on. I will go into WiFi settings, press the toggle button, and it will grey out and get stuck on "Turning on WiFi". I have tried wiping both caches, and I have replaced the bcmdcm.ko under system\lib\modules with bcm4330.ko, which was the one from the stock ROM. Nothing has worked and this problem persists. I am rooted and my bootloader is unlocked. Is there anything short of doing a full factory reset that can fix this problem?
Please post in the appropriate section.

Have you tried flashing the boot.img via fastboot? That seems to help a lot of people.

Ok I've googled around alot and looked on this forum but I can't find a boot.img anywhere that isn't modified. Can you point me to the stock boot.img?
My mom has a Vivid and her phone has been doing this ever since the update was pushed down by AT&T. Since she lives 1000 miles from me, I didn't root her phone, and leaving it stock, the only thing that ended up working was a factory reset. The other thing that was happening after the update was every boot would go through the "Optimizing application 1 of x..." message like it does after the update. I get the impression that whenever she performed the mandatory AT&T update, something didn't go correctly, which is why her Wi-Fi was permanently stuck in this "Turning on Wi-Fi" state. It seems to be working perfectly now, and we no longer see the "Optimizing..." message either when the phone reboots. Now I won't have to do remote tech support when she flies back home next week

it could just be a problem with the kernels, i was experiencing this even before the update.
Are you on a cusotm rom and/or custom kernel?

Did you install the kernel? If you're s-on you need to fastboot flash the kernel image.

I guess everybody who flashed cm10 knows about this. Connecting to wi-fi takes a lot of tries to work, if at all. I managed to connect to my router at home, but it is super annoying to spend 20 minutes at work to reboot and change regional settings just to find out that it doesn't work at all.
Is there any solution to this? Have I done something wrong? Atm i'm running the latest nightly, but i also had the issue with the FXP 152.

Yes, its a well known issue. You could have asked in the cm10 discussion thread instead of starting a new thread here.
The trick is
1) Enable wifi, reboot
2) Search for network, reboot
3) Connect to network and enter password, reboot
4) This time do it all again and it will work.
So, the regional settings don't have anything to do with this issue?

Not that i know of, everytime i flash a cm based rom i just do those steps and it works.
Thanks then. Hope it gets fixed in the near future.

so, a while back i noticed that my gps is not working well.
It didn't bother me that much because i don;t use it a lot.
but today decided to install gps test to see whats wrong and I see it does not find any satellites at all!
I tried agps patch - nothing...
I tried alternating between the latest 3 radios, each time wiping cache/dalvik - nothing...
I'm on latest viper rom, redux kernel and latest radio.
the gps did work with these exact same stats a couple of months ago...
any suggestions?
anyone ever had problems with not connecting to any satellite at all?

Hey,
I doubt help will be available, as viper is unsupported, and hardly anybody is on it. Try switching to Nik Rebirth and see if the problem persists.
Click thanks if I helped you out!

It's not the app that is acting up, it's
the sensor, which is rom related.

Go back to a stock ROM and kernel and see if your GPS works. If it doesn't work on stock, then it's probably time for a new phone.
didnt have time to do it this weekend.
will get to it soon and will post what happebed.
Thanks for the suggestions
tried 2 stock based roms and no luck,
now trying a ruu.
hope i dont brick my phone...
Speak to DoD or NASA. Ask them to launch new satellites! Lol....

I never had probs with wifi, just gps.

I used the ics ruu and still 0 satellites (the above stats are after the ruu) in places where it should easily have 8 (tested with other phones).
any suggestions on what I can try?
what can i try flashing from here? can I go back somehow to gingerbread?
Hi all,
I'm running custom roms for almost 1,5 years on this phone and never had any problem.
But since a few weeks, i cannot turn my wifi on anymore.
I usually use 3G, but once I need to download some larger files (updates for example) I sometimes enable wifi. As I don't use wifi that much, I can't really then when this problem started.
When I try to enable wifi (swiping off -> on) it goes to on but the button stays "grey". Once I exit the settings menu, and reopen it again, it shows "off" again for wifi.
Turning it on via another menu doesn't make any difference too.
I already updated my roms, but still no luck. Tried difference modems as well, but no luck.
Bluetooth works the way it should, so it's only related to wifi.
I already tried renaming the "/data/misc/wifi/wpa_suppliant.conf" file, but after a reboot the system doesn't even recreate that file.
Also took the battery out for some time, but that didn't any effect at all.
Anyone that has some ideas what could this problem?
Thanks!

Try another kernel. Try reflashing your ROM too. BTW it's not modem related.
Smack that thanks button If I helped!
Always make a nandroid backup before trying anything risky.

Any kernel recommendations?
The phone is currently running AOSPA (Pananoid Android) 4-ALPHA, but without any difference when it comes to wifi.

Go back to a stock rom and check. Wifi is kernel dependent.
