Neither from both easy ways works - phone just freezes. I am doing this in spite of multiple phone glitches lately, with the most annoying among them - wi-fi failure. It connects, but can't use the internet.
Running MIUI 9.2.2.0. Anyone had it same?

Hello all,
First off, I am a noob here, so i expect I may say something stupid. Thank you for your kindness, if you wish to correct me. I'm having an issue with the Diamond - it completely freezes when I attempt VOIP calls. Only solution is to take out the battery. No gray screen, no warning, just frozen. I suspect a HW issue, maybe the WiFi.
Originally I was using Morna ROM 1.7.1 which worked well. VOIP was choppy though - not enough RAM in my opinion - so I tried some lighter ROMs. The problem started while I was changing ROMs, and now it's persistent regardless of ROM. I've tried various versions of Morna, Duttys, Tom's, Energy, Nataly... then back to the original, still the same problem.
The crash doesn't always occur at the same spot. Sometimes it's while placing a call, sometimes while on the call, even while configuring the SIP client. I've used different clients, incl Skype, SJPhone, Fring, PortSIP... I suspect it might be a WiFi issue, because I saw the connection drop/reconnect a few times while in a call, before crashing. That said, browsing through WiFi is no problem.
Did I fry some hardware with the repeated re-flashing? Please help! I'm not sure if there are any debugging tools/methods I can use here to better understand what's happening. I've decided to use this phone only at home for VOIP calls (no mobile), so I need to solve this issue.
Try using AGEphone, best softphone that I have found. It will also put all calls through the main speaker, a major problem with most softphone clients on HTC devices.
Hi everyone.
I bought a sgs about 7 months ago. Since I bought this phone, I am having some bluetooth issues with it.
The problem is;
when you first try to connect the device with any other bt devices, it connects without having any problems and operates normally.
Then, when you disconnect sgs from the device, it never connects again. it does not even search for the nearby devices. you can also not unpair the previously connected device, the command "unpair" does not work.
the 120 seconds counter, doesnt count down when you switch the phone to visible mode.
I tried to re-boot but it did not work.
I re-flashed the same rom, it did not work as well.
I changed the rom with another one and flashed 2.2.1, but it s still the same.
the only way, to make the device connect with a nearby device is to re-flash the rom and it only helps me to connect to any device for just 1 time. then bt becomes useless when you disconnect and to re-connect, you have to flash the rom again..
Please help me in solving this.
Honestly I have similar issues with my phone. This thread fixed the connectivity issues: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795691&highlight=bluetooth
However, my phone consistently drops its connection...very annoying.
Honestly, I never had a connection, thus, I am not familiar with the saying "connection droppings"
I tried the things written in the thread but it did not work. still the same and really annoying.
Hi, did you solve this issue? I'm having the same problem on 2.3.3. and it's very annoying...
I've had my P1010 for about 3 weeks now. Since then it has
blacked-out on me (tab crashing then a reset makes the search,
home, power buttons disabled/screwed) several times and
wi-fi dying (can't detect wireless networks that it connected to
previously) suddenly.
I was able to fix the problems though with a bit of tinkering.
- Hard/soft resetting the tab
- Connect to Kies
I have a feeling that the problem isn't a hardware issue but a
software one (or is it?) -- some kind of Sammy/Android issue
on the P1010...
So the thing is, I'm just reluctant whether did I get a dysfunctional
unit and I should get it replaced? Or should I stick with this one,
accept the fact that the quirks I've aforementioned will forever
bug me and replacing it wouldn't make a difference?
Am I the only one experiencing this with P1010?
OK, this is getting really annoying and I hope someone can help...
I have a GSM Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 which has generally been great, however since upgrading to Overcome 7 Series 4.1.0 ROM (based on Android 2.3.6) I have a recurrent problem where I lose all network connectivity, both 3G and WiFi. The phone will be working fine and then for no apparent reason all attempts at data access will fail. The phone will claim to have plenty of 3G/WiFi signal, a valid IP and sensible looking IPs for DNS, gateway, etc., but nothing works.
Switching to flight mode and back doesn't help, neither does rebooting, the only way I've been able to restore data connectivity from this state is to do a factory reset/full wipe. The failures happen at unpredictable intervals but seems to be averaging at least once a week so even with Titanium Backup Pro this has become a really tedious chore and something that can be extremely annoying when it happens at a time I really need internet access.
Can anyone offer any suggestions for diagnosing and, hopefully, fixing this problem? Is this a Overcome 4.1.0 issue, an Android 2.3.6 issue, or is it a hardware fault? Somehow a fairly low level (not 3G/WiFi specific) part of the network stack is getting randomly corrupted, something that persists between reboots but is wiped by a factory reset.
For what it's worth my installation of Overcome 4.1.0 was done exactly as the installation guide says, including a full restock before installing the custom ROM.
My SM-N900A has been working great for a few years now and is running Android 5.0 from an OTA update (maybe a year ago). A few weeks ago I started having trouble with the wifi. Sliding the wifi control to "on" will sometimes work, but more often it can't find any networks. Often rebooting will fix it, and the wifi will connect (showing a strong wifi signal). Sometimes I see it rescanning several times when I don't think it should be scanning. Then after a few minutes or occasionally up to an hour it will disconnect from the wifi entirely and refuse to show any networks as before. Sometimes I have thought that disconnecting the battery is a surer way to restart the wifi than just rebooting, but it is hard to be sure. This happens with my home wifi, as well as with several other wifi networks I have tried. I haven't dropped or damaged my phone, so I'm wondering if this could be a software problem. I have tried rebooting in safe mode, but the problem persists so I don't think this is caused by an errant application. I have also tried swapping in my spare battery, but that didn't change the problem (although neither battery is a genuine Samsung). If I leave wifi off and just stick to the cellular connection, the phone seems to work as it should. Would there be any logic to trying one of the alternate ROMs on this forum to see if this could fix the wifi problem? One reason I haven't tried this already is that the directions I've seen for installing these ROMs seem to be written for people who have done this dozens of times (which I have not). If this is a reasonable tack, is one of these ROMs known for its ease of installation, or perhaps for the quality and detail of its installation instructions? Are there any less drastic things I should be trying first (other than buying a new phone of course)?
Got the same issue. used odine reinstall 5.0 modem/radio and when that did work, i reinstalled 5.0 and 4.4.4 but nothing worked. i think its a hardware failure. time for a new phone.
