[Q] No Wifi after flashing CM9 - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed CM9 on my tablet (the one in the developer section) and have since moved back to ICS. However, after moving back to ICS (restoring backup), my wifi doesn't work. If I go to WiFi in settings it says "Turning wi-fi on..." and never does turn on. I've tried clearing out the cache/dalvik cache and using superwipe to get rid of it, but it still didn't do anything? Has anyone else run into this situation or have suggestions for possible fixes?

Same happened to me after trying out CM9 and going back to stock ROM via nandroid restore. All the symptoms was just like yours. Did all the same thing like wipe cache, dalvik cache ect.
Finally I just flashed the ICS rooted ROM I was using again without wipe and it worked again. No lost of data since I didn't wipe.

I have had a similar issue. Every now and then (particularly at home with my wireless) I am able to see the connection but not connect to it. I have tried turning wifi off and on, rebooting the tablet, the only thing that works is unplugging the router and plugging it in. It has only happened since ICS and once I plug the router in it connects......

I will give this a shot when I get back home. Thanks for the reply.

Okay, I am having this problem every time I leave and come home. I cannot connect (in Wifi it shows the network and shows that it is saved with Webkey, but I cannot connect). I have to unplug the router each time.......

[Q] Wifi Error

Sorry if this has already been posted.
My phone is rooted on stock rom.
It started freezing up and wouldnt send text messages. GO sms locked me out. I had to take the battery out and restart several times. Now i cant connect to any wifi. In wifi settings it just says error. Any ideas what could be wrong?
your best bet is probably to flash back to stock OS...i dunno if there is a one click for inspire
or you could flash a rom :]...this was probably a weird glitch that would go away with a simple full flash
Why not start with doing a factory reset?

I think he already did that, but if that doesn't work, try restoring your entire phone to stock...idk if there is a one click Odin for inspire like there is for Galaxy S models
Thats what I was thinking about doing. Will try that this weekend when I have time. Thanks!

There's a guide stickied to this section that believe has the link to the RUU, which is what you might try, though I think going the RUU route will unroot you.

Full wipe reflash should do it.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
yep I would try wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe delvik cache and a clean install of the rom
Flashed CoreDroid didnt fix the problem
would flashing a new radio fix the problem?
Did you have any luck with this? Im having the same issue and debating whether or not I should flash back to stock to see if this resolves the issue. I have flashed countless ROMs since root with no luck.
My phone is doing the same thing. Not sure when it started doing it since I don't use wifi often. I wanted to check for updates and the HTC one requires WIFI be on, thats how I found out.
My phone is completely stock, with only Apps installed. Factory reset made it say something about connecting for 10 seconds or so before saying error, and now once again it just says error every time i try to enable it.

Data and text issues on all roms after ICS!

After flashing hellfire ICS I wasnt able to recieve any texts. I then flashed Hellfire cm7 and still same issue, also tried eaglesblood. I then tried getril, it wasnt matching but updating it didnt do anything. Now I just flashed 2.3.3 and text is working but I have no data. With every flash I wiped everything and used g2x scrubber. Also I tried using different APN...What can I do to fix this?
So, you reverted to a non 4.0.3 rom and the issue still persist, like a GB 2.3.7 rom?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
yea
Yea, last night I flashed a eaglesblood over 2.3.3, this time manualy wiping and not using scrubber..and it worked, I was able to use data and recieve texts. But now it just stopped working and I am unable to recieve texts again. I have fixed permissions, cleared caches, and tried all the RIL in getril. Why would it randomly stop working??? this is so annoying
..BTW i restored only a few apps with titanium and did not restore any of the data, just apps.

Maybe try flashing a new baseband and then going into your apn list and restoring default apns.
Could possibly be a sim card problem or sim card reader hardware issue... dont wanna jump to the worst possible scenario tho..
I have the jul 15 baseband, isnt that the latest? Idk if it would be hardware since everything was good before I flashed ics .
When you flash, are you wiping data, cache, dalvik cache, and system before flashing?
Yea, I wipe data,cache, dalvik, then format system, then flash rom which is on root of sd card.
Is there anything else I can delete/format when installing a rom? What data is being retained that I have this issue with every rom?
update: Just flashed bionix 2.3.3 rom with stock kernel and everything is working, its like it works only when it wants to..ill try a cm7 rom again later.
you aren't the first to report the same exact thing... I'm waiting for jboxer or another dev to say something... it might have something to do with T-Mobile or your SIM... have you tried entering your number manually... have you tried without data connected or on wifi?
Didn't hear the mention of g2x scrubber always a good thing...

Something I would do would be to...
Download Rom/Gapps
Unzip to make sure it's complete and uncorrupted DL
CWM Recovery
Wipe Data/Cache/System/Davlik/BattStats
G2xScrubber (In case)
Install Rom
Install Gapps
Wipe Cache/Davlik/BattStats
Fix Permissions
Boot let it sit quick..
Hard Reboot (Power + Volume Up)
Edit: For some ICS Roms sometimes you have to enable data or toggle it on/off for it to work.
ok

No AOSP ROM for me

It started I think after I put the 1st JB TW ROM on my phone (eg Incubus). Since then, every time I try out any AOSP/AOKP based ROM I lose WiFi.
Wipe and format everything (data, cache, dalvik). Install AOSP/AOKP ROM, do the initial setup, get WiFi working and then after 1st reboot -> no WiFi. I tried many ROMs based on the above platform. Same thing.
If I toggle the wifi on/off/on some times I get the wifi back but just until the next reboot. Sometimes when I try to toggle the wifi screen freezes.
I odined back to stock. Unrooted and locked. I rooted and unlocked and right away I reinstalled a CM10. Same problem.
When that happens there is no wifi network found and scan finds nothing (i have many netorks around me). It is like the wifi service is not present.
I tried different kernels and different radios. No go.
All the TW stock ROMs (ICS or JB) work fine.
Any idea? Did you hear about this anywhere?
Thanks for your help.

The phone wouldn't boot into the rom if they were rooted but had a locked bootloader.

Try wiping System before flashing AOKP as well. Wipe them a few times just to be sure. Im thinking that possibly recovery doesnt always wipe like it should but im not sure.
I did it.I tried too many times not to get it right at least 1 time.

have you tried the official cm10 m1 release?
I tried the last CM10 from Sep the 23 rd.I don't know which version is that.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Well, I have news. Problem not solved but something new came up.
I had a nand of an official cm10 from Sep the 9th. I recovered and voila the wifi works perfect. More than that. I dirty flashed the nightlie from today and everything works fine
I then wiped and format again everything and flashed the CM10 from today. WiFi lost again after 1-3 reboots.
By the way if I reboot after losing wifi next time I get a screen with activating which stays there forever. Also my phone no and MIN are gone.
I recovered them but the wifi is still gone.
I live in Ca so I'm in roaming if this is of some importancce.
Can somebody mimic this? Fresh install of CM10 official and then reboot.
It does the same for me for any AOSP AOKP JB based.
I have a netgear router that provides wifi service on 2.4 and 5 Ghz on both bands 20 and 40 Mhz. The SSIDs have different names.
I specified already that when that happen I cannot see any other wifi around me and there are many.

[Q] BlackBean (BAKED) ROM - apps stopping

I wanted to post this in the BAKED thread in the developer section but I don't have enough poststo do it there, so hopefully someone here can help.
I just flashed crespo BlackBean 7 (BAKED) ROM (on my Nexus S) and inverted gapps. It seems to have installed properly but whenever I reboot I get a message that several processes have stopped such as YouTube and GMail, and when I go in to system settings -> storage I get a message saying "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped". I get that message every time consistently. I've tried re-flashing the ROM but to no avail. When I installed the ROM I wiped "Dalvik cache", wiped "Battery Stats" and wiped "Cache partition".
It appears I've not done something or done something wrong, so if anyone here can help I'd appreciate it.
Did you full wipe before installing the rom? That means factory reset/data wipe.

I did not do a factory wipe because the last time I did that I lost everything, even after using Titanium backup to back up all my apps first. When I tried to restore there was nothing there to restore. Is there a way to use Titanium backup so that after doing a full wipe I can still get my stuff back?

So I bit the bullet and did a full factory wipe, but I still get the "Unfortunately settings has stopped" error showing up. I wonder if it's a bug in the ROM.

Storage settings fc is a bug in the ROM. It will be fixed in the next version. You should not get fc for any other settings. Back to kill is faster than normal. Everything else works fine on bb7.

Thank you!
I saw the back to kill thing, someone else had mentioned it on the BAKED thread too. Thanks for the info on the fc.
I got another problem though, that made me revert to my previous ROM. I was about to put my phone away for the night and decided to do one more reboot, but it never went past the BAKED splash screen. Even after pulling the battery it wouldn't boot. Is this a known bug too? Or did something happen to my machine? After booting to recovery and re-installing my previous ROM, everything seems to be fine.
Any thoughts?

There isn't any boot issue with the ROM. If you decide to try this ROM again, try to do a clean install.
Boot into recovery, do a factory wipe, go to advanced & wipe dalvik cache, go to mounts & format /systems. Flash ROM & gapps, reboot.

[Q] Custom rom = no wifi

Hi Everyone,
On my TF300T I am running the 4.2 bootloader, I have put TWRP 2.5 recovery on and it is working perfectly. The only issue is that on the two custom roms I have tried (Unofficial CM10.1, CROMi-Xenogenesis 4.6.4) my wifi won't turn on, I have flashed back to stock and the wifi works again. I have tried a couple of kernels on CROMi but that didn't help. I have tried searching but I couldn't find any useful results, what I am missing?
Cheers,
Wipe

I had this same issue when I first tried CROMI-X. I reflashed doing a full wipe (data, system, factory reset, and caches) and everything worked great. It is slightly more time consuming since you have to reinstall all of your custom apps. Also be sure to make a backup of all data and personal files on an sd card.
Once I had the custom ROM installed, I didn't have to do the full wipe for any later updates, only the caches.
Ok I reflashed after doing a wipe of data, caches, and system, then a factory reset. Still no wifi, it just won't turn on, it gets stuck at 'Turning Wi-Fi on..." and eventually times out and the switch goes back to off.
Any other ideas?
Bluetooth works so I have been able to tether through my nexus 4, no wifi is pretty annoying.
Figured it out, had encrypted my tablet, decrypted by going back to stock rom and recovery and then doing a factory reset. Now all is working fine.
Good deal!

Glad to hear you got it figured out. I will make a note of this for future reference should somebody else have the same problem.
