[Q] WIFI problem after 2.2 update/Voodoo

I just updated my Mesmerize to the official 2.2 froyo and am currently using the latest voodoo kernel. My wifi only works right after I turn on my phone and says "error" in the Wireless and Networks settings after I try and press the Wifi button in the status bar after about 8 hours of the phone being on. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? I know it's not my networks that I am using because they have always worked with 2.1.

Did you have voodoo installed prior to upgrading to the 2.2. And if so. Did you disable voodoo before flashing the 2.2.
Only reason I ask is I have seen a lot of warnings about that sort of thing messing stuff up.

Yes I made sure that I disabled lagfix before upgrading to 2.2, everything else on my phone is working great other than wifi occasionally not responding.

I havent really had problems but my wifi reception sucks compared to my iPod Touch. I could have full signal on my Touch but have only 1 or 2 bars on my Mes. also, my router is about 20 feet away right now and I got 1 bar with nothing obstruction line of sight.

Mine does that too. If you press on the wifi button in settings where it says error it will turn on.

I am also getting the same wifi won't turn on error... 2.2 jt's kernel

I just got the updated update and haven't had any issues at home or at work on the hotel's wifi. I suggest getting the newest update. I am on us cellular btw.

[Q] phone keeps turning off

So I'm running cm7 latest nightly and this morning, I dropped my phone, and now, after like 2 minutes, it freezes up and then I have to take the battery out and turn it on, then it does it all over again. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Try reflashing it

I did a full wipe and now I'm in the process of restoring my apps from Titanium Backup and it seems to be working fine so I have no clue what the problem could be....

Wifi problems can't figure it out ideas would be much appreciated

I'm on the skyrocket and I have ran just about every ROM on here at some point and a while back my wifi started acting up randomly. By acting up I mean it would shut off and either attempt to turn on and end up in error or it would turn on after much longer than normal and start scanning but never finding any network then turning wifi back off. I tried all the usual methods of fixing things wipe cache and dalvik reboot, some times would work. Reinstall ROM, kernal, modem...works every time...for a while. Now on ics thought everything was ok then it happened out of no where like always... No wifi. Upgraded to mhx superlite 4.0 and hoping for the best. Thanks in advance

Do you have logging enabled on your router? Seeing any logs that are happening while the router is on/the phone isn't connecting could be useful

I do not but I'll have it ready for next time my wifi stops again could be today could be a week it's very random

Actually three only logs I could find on my router were "event logs" and nothing showed up from my phone when it was last having wifi problems

darkside x 2 > odin stock > odin cwm > darkside > favourite rom + kernel. If that doesn't fix it u have a hardware problem

I've been trying to avoid Odin a I'm not very familiar with it I've only used it once or twice but never in my skyrocket but if this problem doesn't stopthat's my last option I believe... I've been hoping it's not hardware but we will see

Odin CWM?
Hi, I'm facing wifi issues as well. I'm a very new android user. I'm running SKY ICS and it was running great until this morning. I have lost wifi. Nothing has changed with my phone to explain this change in behavior.
Behavior:
Wifi is turned off.
I go in to turn it on, it will show the "turning on..." message in settings and will then show checked. Wi-Fi networks will then show "Scanning" and then wi-fi shuts off.
I had Wefi Pro installed and uninstalled it thinking that app may have caused a problem, but the behavior persists.
I have found Darkside and Odin via search, but can't find Odin CWM. Can someone provide a link? Thanks!

I've noticed that my wifi issues are associated with Juice Defender. It works good for a while then starts acting up. I tweek it. It runs better then acts up. Then I reflash and start over. Need something other than Juice Defender. I suppose I could probably do the same power saving actions with Tasker... but it's more work than I feel like doing.

I use juice defender and never had a problem. Check the wifi settig inside the juice defender profile that's responsible for re trying wifi connection if it fails. That's probably what's set to a high number.
Also, for the OP... Do you have any other wifi devices on your network that behave this way? And do you use juice defender as well?

It was only my phone that acts up my fiancé's phone never has a problem neither do my lap tops but I had found that I could toggle my data, Bluetooth, and GPS on and off a few times and sometimes reboot and wifi would start working again but i'm on a brand new skyrocket now cause I kinda bricked my first one the other day...haven't had a problem with this one yet but I haven't even rooted it yet either so we will see how it goes later on

Have you tried a different access point? If it still has issues I'd take it back.

I think the phone not great on wifi because my computer gets great bars phone gets crap no matter what. Nothing helps even a new router.I have found that how I hold my phone effects the reception allot

[Q] Call Audio Problems on CM10

Does anyone know anything about randomly losing call audio while running any of the cm10 roms? I have had this happen to me twice where it run's fiine, everything works well, then a day or two later I lose call audio completely, tried fixing permissions, wiping cache and flashing again, still nothing.. can't seem to get it back.

I have got it working again but I had to completely wipe everything and start over... I'm running the Cm10 alpha 3 using the recommended recovery from the Tops thread... happened to me on alpha 2 a few times as well... wondering if anyone else having this issue or if its just me.

Is it happening in the car on BT or just in general?

In general... when it goes out on headset it goes out on everything..Bluetooth speaker...etc..

Wifi just died

I've been running cm7 for about 2 years now and never had an issue. All of the sudden my wifi signal disappears. The only way to get a connection is to stand right next to my router. And even then its a very weak signal. And not my router because it happens at my work and at my parents house. I've tried reflashing rom, works for a while, but problem comes back. Flashing different radio doesn't seem to do anything. Wiped dalvik and cache several times. Any help is greatly appreciated.
