Wi-Fi wont turn on - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so this morning, after reflashing VJ's slim bean rom, i noticed that my wifi wont turn on. i would slide it to [on] and it says "turning on wifi" but it get stuck there and the button becomes grayed out [off].
i have tried reflashing the rom
i have tried complete wipe
(sd,factory,cache,/boot,/system,/data and etc etc etc)
i did use blackrose prior to flashing the rom to adjust the hboot again, though that shouldnt cause this issue right?
what seems to be the problem here? i have been using VJ's rom for like 2 months stable and this has never occured.

I had the same problem. Ended up switching to Evervolv KitKat. Never looked back.

Did you finally solve it? I have the same problem with Evervolv's Kitkat. Posted details here. It doesn't seem very common, just found you with similar problems, and this other post.

oddly enough, i clean flashed the rom one last time and eventually the problem fixed itself. after a few days it was back to normal
some things i did try (not sure if it helped or not)
-airplane mode on for a while and then off
-power off phone and take battery/sd/sim card out and let it sit for a few hours
-i got to a point where i could "turn wifi on" (drag slider to ON) and i left it there permanently until it fixed itself

[Q] Wifi broken, need help please

After a few days running Dlev's 4.2 ROM, my wifi stopped working suddenly. When I try to turn it on it says error or unable to start wifi. I've exhausted several initial options I began walking myself back through various ROM's back to the original 2.1 stock ROM. Without success I even performed a master clear and several reflashes of the orininal stock ROM, nothing is working. I tried FXR Wifi fix and rescue. Does anybody have any ideas on what I should do?
Thanks,

Kernel?
What kernel were you running with the custom ROM? Talon's being updated really frequently, so if it's Talon, you might try the latest version of that (0.4.4.22, as of this writing)

Did you try rebooting your router or device that gives you wireless signal? also see if other devices can connect.
It was Talon 0.4.4, but I've gone all the way back to stock ROM/kernel etc and that makes me think that this is a HW malfunction.
AT&T had me reboot the router too, my laptops are able to connect just fine. It's not really a connection problem either, Wifi will not turn on at all.
I called Samsung and they want me to ship them the phone, still debating that one since I will have to go without a phone.

[Q] WiFi problem with MIUI

Hello,
I have just flashed MIUI Gingerbread 2.4.20-RC3 to my GT-S5570, everything looks great, except WiFi, when I turn on WiFi, it says "Scanning" finds my WiFi and then "disconnected" and again shows "Scanning" for 1 sec and again "disconnected", what can I do?
WiFi Error
You need to revert to your old stock rom, because the drivers for WiFi aren't working. Same thing happened on my mobile phone, when I flashed it with the newer firmware. Didn't really find the solution to this problem, but solved it by going back to my old rom. Hope this helps.
You can also try typing this code into your phone: #*#*526#*#*
It might work for you.
Best of luck.

Thank you for reply.
It is working now, here is what I did: In phone settings I tried to change themes lock screen to other, but unfortunately not default lock screen was way too big (very big resolution) so I was not able to unlock my phone any more, once I found that I can do it pressing back+volume down, it helped to unlock, but MIUI was crashed and stopped working, so I had to wipe all data and cash, to reset default settings, after this, everything works great now.

the same thing was happening to me (on the same rom)>> "fixed" it by reseting the notebook-hot-spot (connectify) I use
[sometimes even a simple wi-fi turn on/off or rebooting the device would help too]
I'm posting this in order to prevent you from doing more drastic stuff :cyclops:
hope it' helps

WiFi Issues

I was hoping that maybe someone could help me troubleshoot my problem.
I recently flashed a new ROM and since then my WiFi has been acting up. It will turn off then instantly turn back on and sometimes take longer than normal to turn on. This is causing quite a problem as it doesn't allow for a stable connection.
At first I thought it could be the router but even when I'm out of range, in town, if the Wi-Fi is enabled it still turns off and on.
So I've tried flashing a custom kernel, and several different ROMs and even the Radio. Nothing seems to fix it. I have wiped and formatted everything I can think of several times but regardless of ROM the Wi-Fi still turns off and on constantly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
That happned to me when i flashed stock recovery of older rom version, for example: I had 1.29.401.16 rom with 1.29.401.7 recovery... Probably you have the same issue
Sent from my HTC One™
So you think it could be the recovery at fault?
Yes, are you running your htc with custom recovery, if yes, the problem is not in the recovey
Sent from my HTC One™
I am running clockworkmod recovery. Any more ideas?

wifi and bluetooth problem

hello, so i've been having a problem with the wifi and bluetooth for a while, when i turn them on, it says turning on but never really reaches there and instead either keeps stuck or turns off, it used to only work by removing the battery for a few seconds and then putting it back again, but now even that doesn't work
i was using carbon rom by new maclaw and thought maybe a clean install might solve the problem, so i did that and got nothing, tried cm11 and still nothing, tried another rom by someone other than maclaw but the phone didn't even boot up so i went back to cm11
what can i do to solve the wifi issue ?
thanks
GT-I8190
baseband :ANR6
kernel: 3.0.101-novafusion
A friend of mine is having that exact problem, although it started for him on Stock 4.1.2
Have you found any fix for it? Flashing CM11 didn't help at all :/

[Q] Faulty hardware or something else? Please help!

Hi all, love this forum but dont post often.
Heres the problem: My HTC One m7 (international version) is acting strange:
* Sometimes when I turn on the display I have to enter my sim pin, as if it had rebooted itself, only I know it hasnt. It also happens regurarly when Im using the phone *poff* all of a sudden "enter sim pin".
* When switching from wifi to 3g/LTE it lags for minutes. It drops all connections, including regular gsm, and I have to enter sim pin maybe half the time I swith from wifi. Switching from 3g/LTE to wifi doesnt present the same issues.
* Its extremely laggy when these things happen, otherwise it works fine.
What I have tried so far:
* Old backup of Liquidsmooth 4.4. Works fine for a few days then these same problems starts occuring.
* Uninstalling apps. Thought I was onto something when I uninstalled SwiftKey and it worked perfectly for about 3 days! But then the problems came back...
* Tried other roms but I usually end up with the "unfortunately the process com.android.systemui has stopped" when the rom is up and fully booted. Its a loop that just continues (when pressing ok) so I cant do anything but reboot and try again. I tried probably 5 versions of Liquidsmooth but also Beanstalk and other aosp roms, even Lollipop versions (the liquidsmooth one worked but the same sim pin problems occurred). Havent tried any sense based roms. Also tried several versions of TWRP, official and unofficial. Still ends up with the com.android.systemui problem.
* Tried resetting permissions, wipe cache/dalvik and also wiped the entire sdcard. Used adb/flash to transfer new rom for installation.
So I'm basically out of ideas and pondering going back to stock and sending it in for repair, unless someone here has some tips since I'd rather try myself first.
Thanks for any help or input!

maybe your sim is faulty. try to get a new one from your provider. or it just has a bad contact in your phone.
about the lagging: did you try a clean flash? is your storage full? my phone gets pretty laggy when my storage is nearly full..
Hey thanks for your reply! However I dont think its the sim card, and as I mentioned I clean flashed several times with several twrp version and also twice with wiping all data on my sdcard...
Sorry if I can't offer a concrete solution, but I had similar issues (especially the first one, but also lag when switching networks) on my HOX+. Turns out it was the sim.
Try to test another sim before returning, and at least try a sense based rom. Since you say that it works without problem for a few days with Liquidsmooth 4.4, and then it starts breaking again, it may be rom (aosp?) related. But then again, it may be just random.
Hope you figure it out soon
Thanks akpe! I ordered a new sim card, if that doesnt help I suppose its something hardware related...
Well, the new sim card didnt help. My problem seem very similar to this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...rops-on-some-nexus-4-handsets-fixes-in-sight/
Basically my whole radio disconnects and restarts itself when turning off wifi. Reading that androidpolice thread leads me to thinking about flashing an earlier firmware, from 4.2.2. I have no idea which one, or if I can use the one in that thread or not.
Any suggestions? I'd appreciate it, googling for hours and reading catlogs for days isnt getting me anywhere..
HELP!
Hmm wasn't that a Google issue which got fixed by HTC in the latest OTA? Try a ROM which has the hotfix (like latest ViperOne, 7.0.2) and see if you still get this

Hi akpe! I took your advice and am now running ViperOne 7.0.2 and so far it WORKS! So it seems it was indeed that google bug. HUGE THANKS!
Is it possible to have the aosp lockscreen when at the same time using a pin? I can't seem to figure that out.
Thanks again!
Glad it worked
As for the lockscreen, no idea mate, I'm using the stock one :/ Ask around in the ViperOne thread, maybe someone there knows
Ok, thanks again!
Another thing I cant find is profiles? Need it to make whatsapp notification sound silent when listening to music..
